Bissinger was pretty critical of football culture at Permian. Bissinger is quick to add that there is a trade-off for these young athletes. In exchange for broken bones and pulled tendons, they are treated like royalty in the school. The cheerleading squad, the Pepettes, hover over the players like their personal geisha girls. The "magic" is really an illusion. These boys seldom go on to play college football and their life prospects are pretty poor.
