60 Minutes Sports: "Friday Night Lights"

They weren't denying what he wrote was untrue, they just didn't like it being exposed.

When people get butthurt over the book but they were just parents😂 I think players can relate to this book a lot more than the parents

The players all say the book was accurate but the parents and other towns people dont? I think I'll stand with the players on this one.

Friday Night Lights is an American Classic!!

6:02 😂 the OG original Karen…

In my opinion, it's the greatest football movie ever.

This is exactly why i am not mad at N-I-L. If these athletes can create enough buzz to secure a future for themselves and families, I am all for it.

You can tell his face is scarred from tears. 😢

Um… we need that 1990 60 minutes segment posted as a Rewind, please!

Played high school football in El Paso about 200 miles from Odessa- if you know how sparsely populated west Texas is you know that Odessa and El Paso are KIND OF neighbors. our team was not the best, we were undersized but had ambitions and dreams bigger than our mountains. Reading Friday Night Lights at the end of my senior year was a cautionary tale for us with the story of Boobie Miles. We WANTED those colleges to look at us sooo badly and recruit us. But we also knew that we weren't as talented as Boobie or anyone else and we had the cold hard reality of LIFE MUST GO ON after graduation. The movie came out a year after I graduated and I cried when I realized that feeling of Friday Nights is still in me. I'm 40 now and look back with a smile of my experiences, like we all should. The irony is, I became a teacher and a football coach and the new feeling is being a mentor to my students, which is something I can say is I STILL achieved the happiness I sought for since I was a kid. <3 LET IT BE KNOWN KIDS: WE DREAM EVERYDAY, JUST BECAUSE ONE DREAM YOU WANTED DID NOT COME TRUE, DOES NOT MEAN OTHERS WONT.
