from a tx kid
I haven't seen the movie but I did read the book, in hardback when it first came out. It really did capture much of the escence of high school football in texas. Nothing I have ever experienced comes close to the religious like reverence that football holds in texas. It doesn't matter if you are in a town of 200 people or a town of 2 million people. Football is just different in Texas.
