Times critic roots for Hard Knocks news

Time magazine's Steven James Snyder is not a football fanatic. But this week, he's a big cheerleader for 'Hard Knocks.' "Even if you could care less about football, consider this your formal invitation: Check out 'Hard Knocks,' " he urges. Where other reality shows have devolved, Snyder believes the series is clicking on all fronts: story, character and production values. "It's like two dozen separate Super Bowls, playing out alongside one other. For each and every new player, this is the most important game of their life," he says. "There's something riveting about this show  about how this procession of talent begins to congeal into an efficient, energized whole."
