But what hooks viewers is the race against the clock (the homeowners, helped by a carpenter and crew, pull near all-nighters, sewing and painting like sweatshop laborers) and the personalities...

After an innocuous comment of mine, made during a Cabot-Quincy IM basketball semifinal game, was misconstrued as a fat joke, the rest of the game turned into a cacophony of cheap shots and trash talk, which carried over into a post-game clash of threats...
