Let me tell you, it's hard to write on perfection. And Friday Night Lights is perfection. So before I slap a big ol' SPOILER ALERT on this here blog post, please permit me a few words to wax poetic about the greatest show on television. That's right, I said greatest show on television.

At a corner booth in an Indianapolis sports bar last Friday, I sat in front of the lone television showing Duke's ACC Tournament quarterfinal game-a spot for which, I might add, I had to beg, borrow and deal in the middle of Big Ten country in the middle of the Big Ten Tournament.
