Point well taken with Tim's advice. If he'd been able to just walk into the sunset after hanging up his shoes after winning state, it would have been a Hollywood ending...but, but...I want better for Luke. Though, yes, play the game like it's going to be his last, savor and enjoy it, and let's see what the future brings.
As a Billy-fan, I totally ADORE what Tim did for him, but I really believe that he's got to let his brother off the hook. I would actually have been keen for a whole season of them being on the outs, with an eventual reconciliation, but I understand that time is forcing some of this (over-resentment, hopefully leading to a detente). I love bitching about the relationship, but I'm the first to admit to love also? The fisty-cuffs, fighting and at each others throat thing, so long as they get along at the end of the day.
It would be awesome for coach to move for Tami, but? As a person who sees the reality, instead of the t.v. reality? He'd be MISERABLE in Philly in a year. It would suck. But, t.v., so he can do whatever he wants.
Poor Gray Damon (heh, that really is Hastings Ruckle, no?), is he in something else now? I kind of love his stoner-smirkiness and mourn who he could have been as one of "the kids" in a future season.
See, but I think he wouldn't be moving FOR Tami, not in the sacrificial way of "oh, you put up with this for so long so I'll do this for you". I think the writers really have made a good case for the idea that his run in Dillon (East or West), is done. Now he's got to figure out what else to do with his skills, his talents, his charisma.
Okay, okay, fine....I wasn't suggesting that he become a creepy life coach for yuppies, or anything, but still...there are, in fact, high schools in Philly, and if there's anything Coach T knows is that it's not about State, it's about the team. He has shown time and time again that he can make something (great) out of nothing. Sure, it's great to GO...ALL...THE...WAY... in a town and a state that cares so much, but his job has always been more than that.
