I thought I would like the show but it lost my interest pretty quick.

For me, it just wasn't very realistic for a story about high-school football. The production was too overdone. The stadium and games looked more like a college setting than high school.

That is what Texas HS Football stadiums look like. Not saying all of them but if you are a big school you play in college like stadiums

Starbucks right. You'll have 30-50,000 fans at high school games in some Texas schools. They have their state championship games in Irving Stadium and do a good job packing folks in there.

I tried to watch it but couldn't because it had things on the show I didn't want to have to explain to my kids. . . It seems they can't seem to make decent TV shows anymore that aren't full of sex or sexual innuendos. . . [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

I actually enjoy it, albiet its over sensationalized, but it shows the problems teens can face nowadays.

Its nothing close to the movie or the book, but it shows a relativley accurate portrayal of high school life.
