Fallon as Fletch?

Now that Jimmy Fallon has stepped away from SNL - maybe his next big project will be playing Irwin Fletcher (better known as Fletch). Kevin Smith (Clerks, Mallrats, Dogma, etc.) is working with author Gregory McDonald on Fletch Won (a prequel to the Fletch movie that starred Chevy Chase).

I wrote about this earlier for SportsPages.com.

It occurs to me that Fallon would be perfect for the role and that Smith and McDonald could also use the film to poke some fun at the culture of the 70's (something that Boogie Nights was able to do but Starsky and Hutch failed at).
