Last updated on 8/7/2009. New spoilers and/or information are marked NEW.
Until the episodes actually air, please consider these "potential" spoilers only. In other words, I cannot guarantee that what is described in the spoilers will actually occur on the show. If a spoiler on this page has been found by someone else, I have credited them below.
If you want to quote elsewhere a few spoilers you read here, I won't mind, but please mention my site as being where you got them (http://www.deadwoodstage.proboards34.com). Do not copy and paste entire spoiler threads word-for-word elsewhere, unless you have specifically asked me first. Thanks!

"Years ago in high school, Ray Drecker (Thomas Jane) was athletic, popular, and destined for success. Now, as a high-school teacher and basketball coach, he's underpaid, uninsured, and embittered that his wife of 20 years (Anne Heche) has left him for her dermatologist. After a fire damages the rundown Detroit home he inherited from his parents, Ray's fortunes reach an all-time low when his twin children, who had been living with him, move in with their mom and her clean-freak hubby. Lonely, run-down and at wit's end, Ray attends a local self-help class whose mantra is to identify a personal "winning tool" to market for financial success. After a not-so-fulfilling encounter with a fellow attendee - an ex-flame and would-be poet named Tanya (Jane Adams) - Ray has a "eureka" moment. With the help of Tanya, Ray resolves to take advantage of his greatest asset, in hopes of changing his fortunes in a big way."
