tv show friday night lights copied this
come on you know the story. 1st string QB gets sacked and then the underdog comes in to take his place and then he becomes a star. that happend in the tvshow friday night lights.
Friday Night Lights is based on the book which the movie is based off of. Except it was the running back that got injured. I recomend the book its a decent sports read.

already read it
Yes the show FNL coppied this movie. but it fixed the things wrong with this movie. I love that show and it is 100 times better then the movie FNL.
It's a rock
one things for sure, the show definetely copied the whole concept, but it could have also been based a little off of the original FNL story where the player gets hurt and then the second string guy who never plays all the sudden is a superstar, either way there was definetely some inspiration from this movie in the show... i dont know about you guys but i thought the show kinda sucked, i watched the first four or five episodes and it was really lame, but regardless of the plot holes and some of the football inaccuracies i thought this movie was great
shareWasn't this a true story that they write a book about, then make this as a loosely based on the truth comedy, then they made Friday night lights the movie trying to keep more true to the story, and then they made the tv show Friday night light?
shareVarsity Blues was actually losely based off the book "Friday Night Lights"
shareI think thats what I said...
shareI read a book in high school that im pretty sure was written before friday night lights, and before both of these movies and the show was made. It focused on a small town that was in love with football. Their head coach, Coach Rake was his name, had been the coach for 30 some years and won mulitple state championships and the whole nine yards. Well in the book, one of his players died in practice....and he got fired and stuff. I know thats not what all these were based on....but their were alot of simularities. I just cant remember the name of the book off the top of my head.

A book about football and coaches, go figure. Must be a rip off.

Would someone actually publicly admit to being a democrat. I think most people would rather admit to being a homo.

I guess thats true if you don't mind reaping the benefits of other peoples hard work. Then again some of us take pride in working hard for what we have. To each his own.
shareWell, the fact that you used the word "homo" and making admitting to it a bad thing, you aren't exactly spurting with knowledge, are you?
And as for being a Democrat or Republican, well, I'm neither. I'm Canadian, hence I work hard, don't declare war on oil-heavy countries and am not oblivious to the operations of other countries around me.
Also, I'm not anit-American or anything, I love the U.S., but seriously, your country needs to work on getting a better image of itself out there. When you stop thinking that Canadians live in Igloos and Mexicans in huts, then you might get a little more respect .
I'm also done with this conversation, so reply back all you want with whatever you want, I won't be returning.

Hey smart guy, I quoted homo from you, and how in what way does using an abbreviation of homosexual reflect knowledge?
shareWell with that statement I can see who is collecting benefits of all the other hard working Americans
shareThe book your refererencing is called "Bleachers" by John Grisham. Great book. It's a fictional story. The book FNL came out in 1988, so its quite obvious VB borrowed quite a bit from it.
shareThe book is Bleachers, and the fight between the coach and the QB are similar in this book, but in the book, the QB punches the coach...its a good book.
shareYou talking about "Bleachers" by John Grisham which was released in 2002 long after the movie "Varsity Blues" and the book "Friday Night Lights."
