jim brown, the cleveland browns running back, announced his retirement from american football at age 29 during the making of the film. the owner of the browns, art modell, demanded brown choose between football and acting. with brown's considerable accomplishments in the sport (he was already the nfl's all-time leading rusher, was well ahead statistically of the second-leading rusher, and his team had won the 1964 nfl championship), he chose acting. despite his retirement from football more than 50 years ago, brown remains the league's 10th all-time leading rusher, the cleveland browns' all-time leading rusher, and the only player in league history to have a career average 100 yards per game. in some form of tribute, art modell himself said in spike lee's "jim brown: all american" documentary, that he made a huge mistake in forcing jim brown to choose between football and hollywood, and if he had it to do over again, he would never have made such a demand. modell fined jim brown the equivalent of over $100 per day, a fine which brown said that "today wouldn't even buy the doughnuts for a team".
