ESPN chronicles the Streak. ... and no, not that one


Apparently Kelly Ripa doesn't have enough to keep herself busy, so she's entering the sports world.


ESPN announced today that the disturbingly perky Ripa and her dreamy husband Mark Consuelos will produce a one-hour documentary called "The Streak" about the wrestling team of Brandon High School in Tampa, Fla.


Brandon high school is currently in the midst of a 451-0 streak.


"From the start, Kelly's and Mark's enthusiasm for this project has been as much a selling point as the jaw-dropping record of the Brandon High wrestling team," said Joan Lynch, ESPN executive producer and vice president ESPN Content Development. "Great stories like this one need to be told and can be enjoyed by sports fans and non-sports fans alike because of the personal storylines and drama behind the team's amazing success."


The documentary will follow Brandon High's 2007-08 season and will be produced by Ripa's and Consuelos' Milojo Productions, in conjunction with Hock Films. It will air in October of 2008.
