Welcome to a special GenX Classic Sports Movie episode. Shon, David, and Mark take a trip under the bright lights of small-town Texas to explore Friday Night Lights, the iconic 2004 film that captured the intensity, heartbreak, and unyielding passion of high school football. From the unforgettable performances to the themes of community, ambition, and sacrifice, we’ll unpack what makes this film more than just a sports movie. So, grab your oversized shoulder pads, your neck roll, and your helmet and get ready to relive the drama, triumphs, and struggles of the 1988 Odessa Permian Panthers—MOJO!
