Caught this show tonight, its pretty good if you like football. Kinda like Pros vs Joes, except they're all Joes competing against each other. It pits 6 DB's against 6 Wide Receivers in a series of challenges, like a gauntlet of DBs that a WR had to run through while carrying two balls...in the rain and mud.

"Hall of Famer Michael Irvin is on a quest to give a football hopeful a shot at making the Dallas Cowboys roster! The 10-episode series shot at the famed Cotton Bowl in Dallas includes twelve football amateurs (6 wide receivers and 6 defensive backs) who must endure rigorous competition overseen by Irvin. The legendary receiver will serve as Host/Executive Producer, keeping a watchful eye over the contestants and helping to mold them into champions. Former All-Pro Cowboy Bill Bates and former coach Joe Avezzano serve as coaches and additional former players, coaches, media personalities will guest star. "

So if you win... Michael Irvin tries to get somebody to look at you? Or is there an open spot that they agreed somebody can go to minicamp or whatever

This show has been funny the couple of times I've seen it. The first episode where he basically tested their endurance and toughness was great, those guys ran so much and one of them puked up everything he had.

I think the deal is that they get a shot on the practice squad or something if they win the show. But if nothing else these guys get their face out there a bit in hopes some team will invite them to a tryout or something.

Sounds interesting, but I really hate the Dallas Cowboys.

They don't talk about the cowboys much at all from what I've seen, other than saying the uniforms they wear kinda look like the cowboys jerseys. Its fun to watch
