OVERALL ANALYSIS
CHARACTER ANALYSIS
H.G. Bissinger
He is at heart a journalist and comes to Odessa to report on a town and a team and their failures and successes. In the end, unlike a novelist, he must report the truth as he sees it unfold before him. What he reports is not pretty, but at the same time, it is terribly poignant when he shows us what the future holds for many of these players after their high school football careers are over.

Boobie Miles
He is the one of all the players on whom the author focuses that engenders the most empathy from the reader. Football is all Boobie has in his life. He is not smsart enough to complete a college education and he has no money to help him find a good job. His whole life totally changes when he twists his knee because his cleats catch in the Astroturf. One small move and it is all over. He does find some satisfaction in his life, but he will always wonder how things might have been if the injury had never happened.
Jerrod McDougal
He is the angry one, the one who
can’t ever forget the glory of playing for Permian high school. He sobs at the
end of the Carter game and can’t get the “What if?” thoughts out of his mind.
He always knew he would never play college ball, but he played high school football
just for the taste of being special. He is the one who compares playing for Permian
to being a gladiator and he recognizes and verbalizes the idea that playing for
Permian had emotionally stunted him ever after. He would give anything to be back
in the glory days. ............
