Description
The sun-soaked world of a group of past and present football players in and around Miami, FL is the setting for Season 1 of this half-hour comedy series starring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. Created by Steve Levinson (Entourage, Boardwalk Empire) and featuring cameos from sports stars and journalists, Season 1 follows various players as they navigate life off the field. Leading the pack is Spencer (Johnson), a retired superstar who is trying to find a foothold as a financial manager to current players. Within his inner circle are talented but volatile wide receiver Charles (Omar Miller); a reluctantly retired lineman struggling to adjust to life after the game; and rookie sensation Vernon (Donovan Carter), who lands himself in hot financial water. Troy Garity co-stars as a top-tier sports agent and Rob Corddry as Spencer's larger-than-life boss.

Great show
Very fun to watch and Dwayne is doing great job. Big fan
Surprisingly good
I went in with pretty low expectations, but was loving the show by the end. It’s got a similar feel to Entourage, but nowhere near as crazy as it got towards the end of its run. The Rock was fantastic and so was Rob Corddry. The rest of the cast was great, too. It was nice to see a take on sports management.
Nice replacement to Entourage
I thought this was going to be a guilty pleasure the way Entourage was, but it’s actually a better show. The Rock is excellent in this, he’s a fun kind of cool and with Rob Corddry they’re just awesome. If you liked Entourage, you’ll definitely love this. Check it out.
