"I don't know if you go up to Coach Cooper and demand to play," Jackson said.

Cooper, 38 years old, played 11 of his 14 major-league seasons with the Brewers.

This is the only time when Cooper and Mitchum played the same role in different versions of a story.

Cooper played rugby with Sunday's Well and went on to captain the under-20s team.

Cooper first played for Cork in the intermediate grade in 2010.

Cooper didn't play cricket again until he moved to England in 1949.

Over the years Cooper has played many different musical styles.

Cooper played his football in defence, where he was a consistent ball winner.

Cooper played in all but six league fixtures as Rangers attained third place.

Cooper plays the fool, the person in every social group who takes it upon himself to create laughter by stressing his own ineptitude.
