The wealthy owner of a ragtag California football team is forced to relinquish his rights to his team to his wife in an acrimonious divorce, leaving her to attempt managing a professional sports franchise in disrepair by herself.

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, as running a team proves harder than anticipated with a score of outside influences discouraging her success.

With all the buzz surrounding the championship game, the media and advertisers are causing significant distractions from the Bulls' game plan, much to the frustration of Coach Denardo. To make matters worse, Diane receives a $60 million offer to sell the team along with the news that the whole organization is on the brink of bankruptcy.
