Anyone watching or planning on watching this season?

I'm watching episode 1 right now. Last year was the first year I watched the show, and it was funnier and more dramatic than I expected it to be. Plenty of football moments, sure, but it was also about regular life... albeit as a football player. It's amazing how many players had (and some still have) it tough growing up. Then again, perseverance is one of the key elements in becoming great.

This season is no longer the Bengals (lol, Ochocinco probably couldn't handle any additional media whoring, anyway :D), but the Jets. So far I'm 5 minutes into it, and I'm already loving it. I think Rex Ryan is going to be interesting, to say the least.

Great to see a local team the focus of this season, though I would have preferred to see the Chargers or the Colts.
LaDainian Tomlinson is with the Jets now, and he seems like one cool guy. Still has the speed and skill needed for an elite RB, even though he didn't play so well last season (pretty much declining every year in total rush yds/yds per rush since a peak in '06).

EDIT: finished watching the first episode, and it was very good :)

It's definitely a well done show. I'll be watching the rest of the season. Rex Ryan is a lot of fun. Everyone will want to play for him (unless they're real bible thumpers like Tony Dungy) Also...how does Cromartie (sp?) have 8 kids already =O

Cromartie reciting names of his kids and their ages had me surprised. They are all really young, too, all under 5 if I remember correctly. Lol, you could see him struggling a bit moving through the list... that's a lot of kids, and he still might have more in the future.
