This was a good start to start a good show! i remember watching this show, it was a very good pilot episode. I could not stop watching from here and on. I loved this start, Nick going into the body of Steve Young! i mean that was a thing that every kid wanted to do! I know i would have! well i really liked this beginning, it was an intresting beginning...Nick, Morgan, Elliot and Coleman they all did really good in this episode. Now how to end this thing, 10 more words..now 8 now 6 now ok what a good show!moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- When Nick, Coleman, and Elliot are inside and Morgan is on the outside of the Lighter's house Nick says "We're not taking new members!" and the conversation goes on until Mrs. Hudson says "Let's go, we have to get everything unpacked before your father gets home." We all know Morgan's mom and dad are divorced, so why would he be moving with them? Edit
- After Nick jumps into Steve Young, he performs various screwy antics to confirm he's actually jumped into his body. These antics are easily noticed on the huge stadium TV screen, not to mention pointed out by the game announcers. The one obvious thing that doesn't seem to get noticed by anyone was after Nick assumed his QB position on the field---the fact that he was throwing the football with his right hand! Everyone watching the game, from the announcers to the fans should know that Steve Young is left-handed! Edit
Notes
ADD NOTES
- The series is based upon the Monday Night Football Club books by Gordon Korman. Nick, Coleman, Elliot and Hilary are in the books. Edit
- The actress playing Morgan's mother appears to be listed as Susie in the closing credits, but after the pilot she is called by the name April Hudson. Edit
- At the end, Morgan tries on the Jersey and powerfully breaks a window with a football. As she doesn't disappear but some transformation seems to take place, this might be the first example of the jersey taking the abilities of a player and swapping them with the jersey wearer, as Elliot discovers in a later episode.
