		One of the early plot lines in "Playmakers" had a female sports broadcaster coming on to running back Leon Taylor, who is married with children.
		If I were a TV critic by trade, I'm sure I would find a lot of flaws in "Playmakers." The peripheral characters, for example, are written so one-dimensionally that they're as thin as the skins of those who are crying foul over the show.

	PRO FOOTBALL; Citing N.F.L., ESPN Cancels 'Playmakers' - New York Times
		ESPN's ''Playmakers'' series, which offended the National Football League with its frequently harsh characterization of professional football, was canceled yesterday by the network after one season.
		For the league, ESPN's decision not to renew ''Playmakers'' is a piece of good news in a week when it was embarrassed by the exposure of Janet Jackson's right breast by Justin Timberlake during a duet at the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday night.
		There were several unlikable characters in ''Playmakers,'' including a manipulative owner and the starting running back, who smoked crack and went to great urological lengths to fool a random drug test.
