davidd's TV Reviews

This a great show, mainly because it doesn't spend forty five minutes of every hour showing the football game, play by play with false drama buildup to the inevitable win for the home team. Instead this is a drama about small time life as it is lived by a football coach and his team. The plot choices to paralyze the star quarterback in the first show, the rejection of the unbearable Katrina refugee replacement, the alcohol and steroid abuse, the best-friend betrayal all demonstrate that this is Drama with a capital D, not a silly football show. The acting is superb even by the pretty boy actors whom I suspect will go on to be real actors because of this on-the-job training. I look forward to every episode.
