National Treasures

Read National Treasures Storyline:

Riding along with two young Americans the very week of figuring their dreams are probably going to finish second.James McEwing is an out of work writer nearing his 30's and losing patience for a big break to come along. His best friend of the same age, Gerry Galloway, is a career minor league baseball player looking for a more convincing reason than the prospect of marriage to hook him off the athletic stage.During spring training in Florida, it appears as if the vicissitude of time has finally given the two young men no choice but to submit, pack up, and together drive all the way back home to Pullman, Washington-for good. Along the way, they plan a stop in New England for a relative's 40th birthday bash, followed with a layover in Chicago for a game at Wrigley Field on Major League Baseball's opening day.It was supposed to be a farewell toast; a 3,000 mile road-trip to mark their youth coming to an end. But a clean break just wouldn't play itself out for Big Game James and Gerry G. Life comes back to pedal one more seed of opportunity in exchange for the same old price of persistence and humility.
