About Act Your Age!

Things change with the passage of time, and Jake is denying those changes for as long as he can. However, once the star player of the neighborhood Sunday basketball game, Jake struggles to keep up with the younger guys. Jake’s about to become a grandfather and he’s not quite ready for that either. This may have more to do with things other than his advancing age. Will Jake allow his age-denial to threaten his relationships with his wife, daughter and son-in-law, or will Jake finally act his age?
