HBO's "Ballers" Season 1 Thread; Produced by The Rock & Mark Wahlberg

I may be the only one intrigued by what the storyline with the OLineman is, not everyone is into the superballer lifestyle, I think his wife maybe talked him out of the game. He seems like a really smart dude, and I wonder about how he would make his journey back into the field.

I have a feeling if he makes it back, dude is gonna have some freak accident and end up paralyzed

Much better episode.. Good pacing. Denzel's son can act but he doesn't look like a football player

Most slot receivers are about 5'9 or 5'10 or so, few taller than 6ft even.

Still watching for Dwayne Johnson, but I was kind of bored for a lot of this episode. None of the stories are grabbing me at the moment......There is nothing really bad about the show, but I just don't find any of these storylines right now all that enthralling or interesting.

They need something more to keep my interest. The characters are kind of blah, there is nothing too original or interesting about the storylines. It just seems kind of all generic

I missed Playmakers

 

[HHR]

I'm halfway through the first episode.......


.....this is not good.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

I know some weeks back some of yall were pissed at the way they portrayed the black dude with big family and friends around him damn near calling this stereotypical and racist.

It must somewhat hurt standing for that fight of that issue but then now seeing that new D. Jackson reality show which is basically this same point.....

That nicca mom his manager!

two years I just watched, sounds about right the average nfl career is 3 years.

3 years ?

So you could be signed at 18 and then thrown to bushes at 21 ??

 

[MikelArteta]

3 years ?

So you could be signed at 18 and then thrown to bushes at 21 ??

you need to be 3 years removed from hs to be in the nfl, most nfl rookies are 21, 22

and yeah a nfl career is that short, every year there are guys cheaper coming for your spot.

go look at the nfl draft from 2011 and see how many of those dudes are still on rosters

 

[HARLEM AL]

Some of you nikkas are hard to please. shyt look solid so far.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

3 years ?

Tim Tebow, J Russel, Troy Smith

And those are some of the more we'll know examples

 

[dennis roadman]

Show is wild dull and I resent it for making me feel on a Sunday night

 

[pickles]

Lolol at nikkas and their harsh criticisms.

Go watch reruns of GIRLS then.

 

[Zero]

2nd episode was solid but I'ma binge the rest of the season when it's over.

I'm too used to hour long shows...this shyt went by way too fast for me
