Who should play Carmela Soprano?

Page 2 staff

Page 2 received a flood of e-mails after we asked our readers to re-cast HBO's "The Sopranos" with "actors" from the sports world.

Carmela Soprano
Carmela Soprano
Now we need your pick for the best sports personality to play Carmela Soprano (Edie Falco), the wife of crime boss Tony Soprano. Which nominee would best portray Carmela's heart of gold and overwhelming desire to do the right thing. Someone who is one fiercely loyal, yet grudgingly accepting of Tony's infidelity.

After voting for your pick to portray Carmela, we'll take you to the poll to choose who should play Tony Soprano's shrink, Dr. Jennifer Melfi. Continue voting for your choices until you're done re-casting mob show.


Steffi Graf
Page 2's pick.

Chris Evert
Separated at birth from Falco, and has the same mix of fragility and spunk. Could use that backhand for chopping veggies for lasagna ... or sticking up for her boys.
Jim Haug, Willston, Vt.

Tonya Harding
They're both blondes who dabble in illegal activity and have husbands who will whack on request.
Jon Zinman, happaqua, N.Y.

Hillary Clinton
Too bad Hillary Clinton isn't involved in sports ... She has a lot of pull in the family and hasn't left Bill yet either.
Matt Clure, Omaha

Brandi Chastain
She's not called "Hollywood" for nothing. She's practically made for the camera, and would do anything asked of her. A crowd pleaser who loves praise.
Jackie G., New York
