HBO's Hard Knocks debuted last night. This season is about the Cincinnati Bengals, and I can already tell that it will be a major improvement over last year's ass-kissing fest featuring the Dallas Cowboys. It showed Reggie Kelly, a quietly confident leader of the Tight Ends, rupturing his achilles tendon, and the lousy bedside manner of the Bengals trainer informing him that he needed surgery, and that his season was over. It also showed the Bengals' turk knocking on the dorm door of the leading fullback, DJ Runnels, at 6 in the morning and telling him to wake up, hand in his play book, and get on a plane out of here. Really nice. They couldn't let him sleep in a little?
Joey loved this show too, and suggested that the NFL really needs to promote the soap opera aspect to female fans.
