Basis for Jerry Maguire character goes hybrid

"For this superstar sports agent -- widely considered to be the model for Jerry Maguire -- buying a Lexus RX 400h was a symbol of his conversion to environmental activism. In fact, he has a team working on "an ambitious program to 'green up' sports," he says. It includes running stadium scoreboards on solar power, installing water collectors to irrigate playing surfaces and, perhaps most important, persuading athletes who drive Hummers and Escalades to ditch the brawny bling and be better environmental role models. He's even working on a hedge fund to finance it all."
