WHAT DOES GOLDIE Hawn, a high-school football team, an uptight ex-husband (with legal battle over custody of the kids), a bunch of slapstick locker room gags, and an adolescent version of the Chicago Bears' "Refrigerator" get you? Not much, really...

Senator Alan Simpson of Wyoming had to plead with them "to stop beating up on each other. It makes it difficult...
