"...I was in this group with these knuckleheads and I started really liking them," he explained, "even though they had nothing to do with the film industry and I had nothing to gain from them and nothing to offer them." With this as the background, Harmon wrote the show with a main character largely based on himself. He had, like Jeff, been self-centered and independent to the extreme before he realised the value of connecting with other people. About the creative process behind the writing, Harmon says that he had to write the show as if it were a movie, not a sitcom.

One of the players, Casey Caldwell was once one of the Breds himself, but was dropped due to his drinking habit, and is making repeated but unsuccessful attempts to regain Byron's trust. Byron's most talented prospect is his adopted son, Truth Harrison, a college junior, who has a 32-point scoring average, but is also developing a cocaine addiction.

On April 1, 2014, Boomer and Carton were discussing Mets second baseman Daniel Murphy taking paternity leave in order to be with his wife for the birth of his first child, and that Murphy would be unable to attend opening day. In an otherwise out-of- character moment for the otherwise socially conscious Esiason, he was critical of Murphy, saying his wife should have scheduled "a C-section before the season starts" because he "needs to be at Opening Day". After receiving criticism from groups like the March of Dimes and many of the program's listeners, Esiason later apologized to Murphy and his wife for "creating an intrusion into a very sacred and personal moment in their lives" and for making an "insensitive remark that I sincerely regret". Carton, consistent with his character, remained indifferent, referring to those who opposed them as "knuckleheads".

The park, which has roller coasters, go-karts, and water slides, is called Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park. The Tanger Outlet Center opened in 2006 near the Great Wolf Lodge, replacing the defunct Wisconsin Dells Greyhound Park, which opened in May 1990, but closed in 1996 due to heavy competition from the nearby Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin Dells Bingo/Casino. Since Mt. Olympus opened the Parthenon Indoor Theme Park in 2006, two more indoor theme parks were constructed in the area: Knuckleheads outside the Tanger Complex in 2007, and Kalahari Resort in December 2008.
