A sports version of Entourage? We can get on board with that. Over the last number of years, few actors have been as consistently entertaining as Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. From starring in action movies to just tweeting out photos of his ridiculous cheat meals, the former WWE star has developed a huge and passionate following. Last night, his new television show 'Ballers' debuted on HBO and it looks like great fun. Just picture an NFL-orientated version of Entourage with The Rock in the Ari Gold role and you'll have an idea of what to expect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15lfITfxMDI The Rock actually has quite a strong football pedigree, having one a national championship in college with the Miami Hurricanes in 1991. Hopefully, 'Ballers' is shown on Sky Atlantic in the near future.
