Kurt, Brenda Warner hope 'American Underdog' will help others overcome adversity

That’s awkward, because she’s married to Kurt Warner, the Hall of Fame quarterback who guided the St. Louis Rams to a Super Bowl victory in 2000 and who was twice named the league’s MVP.

The two have been married for 24 years, and the story of their love and relationship is the backbone of “American Underdog,” which opens in theaters on Christmas Day.
