| Robert Wuhl hosts Players Choice Awards | |||||
| Actor Robert Wuhl, the star and producer of HBO's hit series Arli$$ -- an off-beat satire about the sports world, will host this year's Players Choice Awards Show Nov. 3 at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas (9 p.m. ET, ESPN).
Wuhl has also been praised for his work in several films, including two with baseball themes: "Cobb" and "Bull Durham," in which he portrayed the fast-talking assistant coach of the minor league team.
Hailed as "one of the best comic actors in movies" by the Los Angeles Times, Wuhl also has been praised for his work in such films as "Batman," "Good Morning Vietnam," "Blaze" and "Mistress."
As a comedian, Wuhl has starred in the HBO Comedy Hour titled "Robert Wuhl's World Tour," and he has performed stand-up in several prestigious venues across the country, in addition to being involved with "Comic Relief" from its inception.
Possesing an incredible knowledge of sports, Wuhl is a longtime baseball fan, and he derives great pleasure from participating in rotisserie baseball.
The Players Choice Awards are voted on by every player in the Major League Baseball Players Association. Each player casts a vote for the best player, pitcher, and rookie in each league. In addition, votes are also collected for the player and man of the year honors.
