Why? Why the fuck would you make a movie about this shit? A football team, hailing from a town in ass fuck Texas where the people only care about banging their relatives, making grain alcohol in their sheds, concentrating on their racism.....and football. Sadly this is the kind of town that would escape Nuclear Armageddon and the future of humanity would be left in the hands of these brokeback retards. Sadder still is that Friday Night Lights not only focuses on the finer scenic areas of this town, but is actually a story about its H.S. football team, for which the town has limitless pride. Nothing like being involved in a sporting event while your parents are getting lit in the stands and fooling around.

The saddest fact of this entire movie, is that it follows the hardships of this football team, that lost it's star player, and expectations were dashed, but they still managed to make it all the way to the finals. Sounds great right? Wrong.

The fucking team loses.

What's the point of that? Oh but Pat they showed tremendous courage in the face of adversity and achieved so much. Oh Fuck You! They achieved dick! Tremendous courage!?! Is it courageous to come in second? They faced adversity and adversity took a giant shit on them and the entire town. Frankly I haven't been this pissed off with a community since I went to Gloucester, Massachussetts ( the toilet stain of a town that provided the backdrop for the Perfect Storm).

Why not make movies about more stellar examples of mediocrity? How about a movie about the Green Bay Packers amazing 1997-1998 season? You know the one, where they lost to Denver in the Super Bowl? How about a movie about the Presidential campagin of MIchael Dukakis? Justin Guarini anyone? David Lee Roth? Who? Exactly! 2nd place means only one thing. You are the first loser.

By the way, if I didn't already make this abundantly clear.....Friday Night Lights bites the hog.
