It’s game over for "Necessary Roughness". USA Network on Tuesday announced that it will not be renewing the ratings-challenged gridiron drama for a fourth season.

“We are proud of this show and its writers, which had a unique ability to address topical subjects before they unfolded in real life on the sports pages,” the cabler said in a statement.

“We want to thank Liz Kruger and Craig Shapiro, the incredible cast led by Golden Globe nominee Callie Thorne and our partners at Sony Television.”

I just saw the news of this cancellation. Boo! I started watching in the 3rd season and would have continued watching if it got a 4th. I think I will boycott Covert Affairs now, have seen every episode of it but CA really went downhill this year and creatively would have much rather seen NR renewed.
