UFC hall of famer and longtime Packers fan Chuck Liddell, right, has joined the cast of "The 60 Yard Line," which filmed in Green Bay and Ashwaubenon last fall. The crew returns Feb. 15-18 to film its winter scenes. (Photo: Photo courtesy of "The Sixty Yard Line")
Current Packers players John Kuhn and Mark Tauscher play themselves in the film, as do former players Ahman Green and Michael Montgomery. Retired World Cup soccer star and 1998 Bay Port High School graduate Jay DeMerit also has a cameo.
Newly announced star power includes longtime Packers fan and Ultimate Fighting Championship Hall of Fame inductee Chuck Liddell, Chelsea Crisp (of ABC’s “Fresh Off the Boat”) and stand-up comedian Jeff Dye (NBC’s upcoming “Better Late Than Never”). There are several more casting additions to come, Churchill said.
Next week’s shooting will wrap up principal photography for the project. An NFL Films-style narrator, featured throughout the movie, still needs to be hired and the narration recorded, Churchill said. But they’ve hired an editor and have “a first rough assembly” of all the scenes shot so far.
“That’s a huge, huge first step toward having a final cut. We’re very excited,” Churchill said. “It looks really good. It’s great. We’re very happy with it.”

My take - let's get one thing straight. The GB Packers are the greatest football team ever. Your team sucks, mine is awesome. If the GB Packers weren't the best, then why is Chuck Liddell a fan of theirs ? It's obvious at this point it's just denial preventing you from accepting the Packers the most important NFL team in history. They are America. You don't hate America, do you ? I mean, we had Reggie White play for us and he was a reverend. Which means even Jesus is all about the Packers. Come on, Sherdog - be one with the Cheeseheads !
