look, if he's not big in e-sports i don't know who he is

and e-sports is real, EVO aired on ESPN2 this weekend ok

whoah, i just thought of something: 10 years from now, this kind of show will be all about Overwatch 3 and Street Fighter 8 players, not football players. They will all be asian too, instead of black

He also seems to forget that mobas are the big esport and the biggest esport stars are koreans playing starcraft.

I don't follow any sports. That's why I didn't know who he was. That said, I know the "big names" in UFC, though. And I actually like Jon Jones.

I enjoyed the closing line from this episode. It was cold, plus the crack of a tiny dominance smile. Good shit.
Not to mention that greedy cocksucker hurting his meal ticket. Dumb fuck.

This got renewed for Season 3 already. Supposedly HBO's highest rated comedy in like 6 years. I guess their ratings for just the live broadcast aren't super but people that subscribe and view it within a week is pretty high.

I like the show, I just wonder where they are going to go with it. Needs more Denzel's son, he's pretty great as the loose cannon diva WR

This show kinda sucks and Rock overdoes the 'im actually a good guy thing' in a big way, but I still somehow watch every episode. It's like entourage with sports, only it started shitty instead of became shitty

Yeah this show isn't even that great. It's nowhere close to Veep or Silicon Valley. I still watch it because the NFL is awesome and this really is Entourage with sports, but those ratings confound me.

Neither of us like it, but both still watch it. Multiply that times a few million.

We all say it's bad, but we all watch it anyways. Love Corddy and the Rock, and love Denzel's son. It's not meant to be pure comedy like Veep or Silicon Valley, but I feel like there's still something missing. Still watch it every week though.
