trying to get the rest of us interested in Texas High School football
hey, its the best football in the land.. at least in my opinion!!
there is a new movie coming out on October 8th called, "Friday Night Lights". it is based off a non-fiction book by HG Bissinger, detailing the 1988 state championship football season of the permian panthers, from odessa, texas. this is a must read book for anyone who has ever touched foot on a football field. it is a very unique and honest look into the lives of every player on that field. and how the game of football can unify or divide an entire town. it is THE book that explains the passion that every texan has for high school football.
i cant say how the movie is gonna be, but by the looks of the trailer, it think it will be pretty good. the movie was filmed on location ,in odessa, and used locals for a lot of the scenes in the movie. if you dont care for the movie, then read the book. and you will understand why my passion is so strong.
