    Season 1 Episode 12 - Aired 9/14/2011

    It's the game the Hawks have been working towards all season, and everyone's got playoff fever-especially TK, whose symptoms include epic freakouts. For some reason, usually-tough TK is spooked big time by Maurice "The Minefield" Manningfield, a take-no-prisoners cornerback from Chicago with a flair for trash talk. And with TK's panic attacks threatening to ruin the Hawks' chances (not to mention his relationship with Vivica) Dani's got to figure out a way to get inside his head-and get the Minefield out of it-before the big game.
