Of all the towns in America, why does Bissinger decide to go to Odessa, Texas? 3. As Bissinger describes the drive into town from the outskirts to downtown, what sort of details does he mention? What do these details tell the reader about the kind of town Odessa has become? 4. How does his description of the Permian Panthers’ football stadium contrast with the way he characterizes the rest of the town? 5. Bissinger sees his year in Odessa as a chance to learn not just about high school football, but also about other aspects of small-town American life. What other questions is he interested in finding answers to in Odessa? 6. How does Bissinger go about researching his subjects? 7. Bissinger says he found positive and negative consequences to Odessa’s football- crazy culture. What were the positives and what were the negatives? Prologue pp. 1-20 1. To gain the reader’s interest, Bissinger prefaces the story with a scene from the middle of the season. In this way, he begins in media res, or “in the middle of things” (just like Homer in the Odyssey). He starts with his focus on running back Boobie Miles, who expected to star at running back for Permian before a knee injury sidelined him for most of his senior season. In his first paragraph, Bissinger uses a racial epithet to characterize the way Boobie feels he is perceived.

  • Friday Night Lights H. G. Bissinger Da Capo Press Non-Fiction/Sports 366
    Friday Night Lights H. G. Bissinger Da Capo Press Non-Fiction/Sports 366 pages Copyright year: 1990 A Life you will Never Forget By: Brandon H When you ask most people "what is the book Friday Night Lights about?" your most likely to get an answer that is "oh it’s about the football team who lost in the championship" but, although that is true, there is much more detail than just that. Friday Night Lights by H.G Bissinger is one of the greatest novels I have read. (Over the numerous amounts of years I have been reading for). A young group of boys learn how to cope with racism and overcome obstacles that most people at their age would never be able to do. The players on the Permian Panthers learn how to maintain their act on and off the field as the coaches pushed them to be the best they possibly can. It was always hard for the players to accept each other for what they looked like because in the town of Odessa, Texas, whites cannot accept the black citizens. There was a line clearly drawn between the players but will quickly learn how to overcome the impossible. The head coach of the Permian Panthers, Gary Gaines, always has had an intelligent mind when it came to football and acted as the scapegoat to the team when something went wrong. The people of Odessa had extremely high standards for the football team putting a great amount of pressure on Coach Gaines. In Texas, football means everything to the people as kids and young adults start playing at extremely young ages.

BISSINGER'S FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS Ritger til B.A.-prófs Heimir Berg Vilhjálmsson Kt.: 261082-5949 Leibeinandi: Julian Meldon D’Arcy Febrúar 2009 2 ABSTRACT This essay is about H.G. Bissinger’s non-fictional book Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team, and a Dream and its portrayal of racism in connection with a small Texan town’s high school football team. The portrayal of racism in the book will be compared to how two other versions of the story confront the subject, and which version addresses it most effectively. The other versions discussed consist of a Hollywood feature film released in 2004, produced by Brian Grazer and directed by Peter Berg, which bears the name of the book, and the first season of a television series, produced and directed by the same producer and director of the movie, released in 2006, and which also holds the original name (IMDB). Although the blatant racism that Bissinger reveals as the norm in West Texas during his residence in the depressing oil town of Odessa is confronted separately by all three versions, they portray the problem in different ways and are therefore subject to comparison. This essay is going to reveal through evidence, argument and discussion, that it is in fact the original book by the author Bissinger that shines the clearest light on the issue of racism.

    The oil-patch town of Odessa, Texas, lives for one thing: - 09.1... http://cnnsi.printthis.clickability.com/pt/cpt?expire=&title=The+... Powered by September 17, 1990 Friday Night Lights The oil-patch town of Odessa, Texas, lives for one thing: the start of the high school football season H.G. Bissinger The faithful sat on little stools of orange and blue under the merciless lights of the high school cafeteria, but the spartan setting didn't bother them a bit. Had the booster club's Watermelon Feed been held inside the county jail, or on a sinking ship, or on the side of a craggy mountain, these fans still would have flocked there. Outside, the August night was cool and serene, with just a wisp of West Texas wind. Inside, there was a sense of excitement and also relief, for the waiting was basically over—no more sighs of longing, no more awkward groping to fill up the empty spaces of time with golf games and thoroughly unsatisfying talk about baseball. Tonight the boys of Permian High School in Odessa would come before the crowd, one by one, to be introduced. And in less than two weeks, on the first Friday night in September, the march to state—to the Texas high school championship finals—would begin with the first game of the season. By the time the Watermelon Feed began, there were about 800 people crammed into the cafeteria. They had come dressed up for the event, not in black tie or anything outlandish like that, but in Permian Panther black—black caps, black shirts, black pants, black jackets.

  • Excerpts from Friday Night Lights (651.72
    NYS Common Core ELA & Literacy Curriculum Grade 10 • Module 1 • Unit 3 • Lesson Text Preface MAYBE IT WAS A SUDDENLY ACUTE AWARENESS OF BEING "thirtysomething." Maybe it was where I lived, in a suburb of Philadelphia, in a house that looked like all the other ones on the block. Or maybe it was my own past as an addicted sports fan who had spent a shamelessly large part of life watching football and basketball and baseball. I just felt something pulling at me, nagging at me, a soft voice telling me to do it, to see for myself what was out there and make the journey before self-satisfaction crept in for good. The idea had been rattling in my head since I was thirteen years old, the idea of high school sports keeping a town together, keeping it alive. So I went in search of the Friday night lights, to find a town where they brightly blazed that lay beyond the East Coast and the grip of the big cities, a place that people had to pull out an atlas to find and had seen better times, a real America. A variety of names came up, but all roads led to West Texas, to a town called Odessa. It was in the severely depressed belly of the Texas oil patch, with a team in town called the Permian Panthers that played to as many as twenty thousand fans on a Friday night. Twenty thousand . I knew I had to go there. From Friday Night Lights by H.G. Bissinger, copyright© 1990.
