"This is an exceptional script ... it's fast, funny and, at times, incredibly touching, delivering laughter and tears in equal measure" ~ Scotsman
"With its procession of eccentrics: salty-tongued derby competitors, fast-talking sports announcers, desperado skating impresarios and dysfunctional clerics. When it comes to vomit, venereal disease and violence, nothing is off limits here ... scabrous, hard-core, fascinating and funny" ~ Atlanta
