      I've seen the script to the pilot for this and the few pages I read over were great. Amazing dialogue and it was extremely visual with just words alone.

      Unfortunately, I don't have HBO and don't plan on getting it so I might have to wait till it's out on DVD.
      "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

      "You'll not find more penny-wise/pound-foolish behavior than in Major League Baseball." - Rob Neyer

              Read the book a couple years ago, excellent read. I don't get HBO, but I'll try to find some way to watch the show.

                        Just canceled HBO, but I will still catch this show online. Been anticipating it since the Wire finale.

                          Saw a commercial for it yesterday and recognized the name from this thread. Definitely looks like it's going to be a hit.

                            Looks like it's gonna be great. Reminds me of my coworker that was in Iraq for three years.

                              Outstanding first episode. One of the fastest 68 minutes of my life.
