I definitely enjoyed the episode but I'm clearly bias. I want to like Jameis so bad because he's got a fun personality but can't bring myself to do it.


It did crack me up with the fan "Hey, can I get a picture of you?" while Riley Bullough stood there awkwardly for the picture by himself then then the fan asked who he was. You know he turned around and posted it on fb "Just met Riley Bullough! #bigfan".

The cynical part of my brain is just constantly screaming "They're trying to give this rapist good PR" during every segment featuring him.

Ask me about how my football team's success determines my self worth, and how I wish I lived in New Orleans.

I imagine being a fan of the team goes a long way with this series because I really enjoyed the first episode.

I did find it odd that Dirk had a Falcons helmet in his office but he had every team, pro and college, that he coached for there so I can sort of understand it.

Dirk is a stand up guy. Like when he shamed the Bucs great twitter troll. He knows when too far is too far when making fun of a downed opponent, a lesson the rest of the internet could benefit from imho

He shouldn't. That was probably the best 28-3 troll out of the millions of attempts. It was a pretty pro troll.

Yeah, it really was a drat good show. Who was the announcer doing the highlights? Always enjoyed the quips.

Fwiw he's like that all the time. Trying to edit him into a sinister actor is hard when he's constantly on camera and interacts with others the way he does

I think it was Harry Kalas. He was the guy that succeeded John Facenda as the voice of the NFL. As I recall, he died a year or two after HBO dropped the show.

As I said earlier, it is entertaining to see them get picked up on another team and excel and the coach gets shitcanned the next year along with a lot of his brain trust because they knew better.

Good. Bad kickers should be heckled relentlessly.

Gerald McCoy has cracked me up in two consecutive shows now. I like seeing more of their personalities, it makes me like them more

e: drat Miko dem titties

e2: Jameis makes it hard not to like him. The 3rd string QB got hurt and Jameis saw the Oline guys that were in at the time laughing and joking and he walked over to them "glad y'all are having fun...Ryan just hurt his shoulder, but y'all keep on having fun" and walked off.

The Oline guys sat there and looked like they just got put in time out.

e3: drat watching Aguayo get cut was brutal

e4: I love watching NFL dudes geeking out over Game of Thrones

fwiw it sounds like the Bears picked up Aguayo right after he was dropped, so at least he still has a shot at a career!

There was a scene during this episode where Aguayo was having a particularly good practice and his coach kept saying "That's it, 'Berto! 'Berto's on fire today!" etc, stuff like that. And for some reason I imagined they were talking about the giant pink Nintendo character Birdo while saying that and as a result that whole scene made me chuckle pretty sensibly. "There ya go Birdo!! You're doing it! Birdo's hot today!"
