Clear eyes, Full hearts, Can't lose

I love Friday Night Lights.

Ok. There I said it.

I watched half of the first season in the dark little recording room with surround sound at the WBCS radio station while getting paid a cool $7.00/hr every Sunday night, but when the semester ended, I forgot to finish the show.

With my rekindled Netflix relationship, I decided I'd better pick this show back up while me and the "watch online" option are hot and heavy. because let's be honest, IT'S SO GOOD.

So I watched the first episode and IT'S SO GOOD. I loved that coach guy in Early Edition when I was in 5th grade and I love him now.

IT'S SO GOOD.


You want to know what else is so good? McHale is kaputski. Word on the airwaves is K.Love TWEETED the news on his Twitter page.

I'm happy. McHale has given the good people of Minnesota nothing but an aching feeling in our hearts and pits in our stomachs knowing that the early 2000's could have made the Wolves something to talk about. Speaking optimistically about the days of such great players as KG...and others. LaPhonso Ellis? wait no. Bill Curley? still no. Loren Woods??

Ok, well bottom line, I think things would have been better sans McHale.

McHale and co. have labeled EVERY SINGLE YEAR as a "rebuilding year" for the franchise. Seriously. We've been rebuilding this team longer than I've been able to spell Szczerbiak. (Which is quite awhile folks, because I used to practice writing Szczerbiak on all my notebooks in junior high. usually there were a lot of "i hearts" involved.)

Roughly 10 years of rebuilding.

Which was preceded by building the team.

Which leaves no room for actually being a decent team.

So here's to hoping next Thursday brings us someone to rebuild around. again.

and here's to getting a decent coach..like the one in Friday Night Lights. or Coach Bombay. or Zac Efron's dad in HSM.

Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.
