When three-hundred-pound outcast Andrew Zansky is recruited by his high school's charismatic star quarterback to play center for the football team, Andrew's life changes dramatically. His extra girth is actually an advantage in his new endeavor, and this fact, coupled with the attendant popularity of being a jock, does wonders for his self-esteem. He begins to wonder if he actually stands a chance with the girl of his dreams, a beautiful new student who has joined the cheerleading squad. Andrew's sudden rise to fame and popularity is intoxicating, and he will not let anything stand in his way -- not the school bully, not his former best friend, not the aftershocks of his parents' messy divorce, not even his severe asthma.
