1st & Ten

The wealthy owner of a California football team is forced to relinquish his franchise to his wife in a divorce, leaving her to manage a team in disrepair.

Diane Barrow, the new and inexperienced owner of her former husband's professional football franchise, struggles to gain a grasp on her roster and general manager.

The dangerous, mob-connected Arcola brothers try to manipulate Diane, from her general manager to her quarterback, in an attempt to embarrass her into forfeiting her ownership.

Diane takes drastic measures when everything seems to be working against the Bull's doing well, including Carl Witherspoon's new football contract and Arcola's decision to stop distributing beer for the upcoming games.

Diane finds herself in a personal bind when her attraction and emotional attachment to one of her players conflicts with the team's need to trade him to another franchise.

Diane is left to coach the team when DeNardo suffers a near heart attack. In her new role she makes history as the first female coach in professional football history.
