Plus River's numbers were inflated by the fact that the Chargers were playing in a VERY weak AFC West at the time...

Yeah but he had to play Peyton or Tommy boy basically every year. Two of the best QB's of all time who almost every year also had better teams imo. Then add Big Ben, those Steelers teams were elite too.

Either way Eli beat Brady twice. I get his defense was elite. If not for Eli's 2 postseason runs he is just another guy

Alright whoever recommended the show Banshee to me I need to say thank you. Was one of the more action packed intense shows I’ve watched. What else you got?

Would Broadway Joe & Eli be a good comparison? Eli right at .500 for his career. Namath one game below .500. And both of them pulled off S.B. stunners.

Broadway Joe guaranteed a win and delivered and Eli & Co. stopped perfection.

May need a new one soon (I'm actually rewatching Breaking Bad). what's it about?

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Agree.

Its so ridiculous.

I get the need for representation.

But, let the shit be organic if its an original story and just stay true to the character if its based on a book or the comics.

Disney is a great example of getting it right and getting it needlesly wrong.

They did a fantastic job acknowledging Loki's bisexuality on his Disney plus show.

But, they fucked it all to hell in Light year and the Eternals.

One of the best portrayal's of a truly awesome Gay Character was on the show Banshee.

Job was a poc and flaaaaaaaaaming hot gay.

But, he was written and the actor played the part in such a way that you barely even recognize that he is a goddamn Asian Dude, dressed like a Geisha girl, or a contestant on Ru Paul's drag race in every single episode.

It was so organic and he was such a badass that he's usually everyone who watches the show's favorite character.

That's how you do mainstream gay. It enhanced his character, it wasn't just crammed In there for shits and giggles.

Yep. Job didn't bother me at all.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Watchman was an HBO show where they had a great diverse cast and dealt with a lot of issues in great ways.

I recently re-watched it while I was sick last week. SOOOO good.

Totally agree. Plus I was ashamed I had never heard of the Tulsa incident.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

His dynamic with Sugar was gold...lol

But, yeah....

He was clearly gay.

But, they didn't force gratuitous love scenes down our throats.

This

I was even fine with True Blood level gay until Tara went full blown butch out ot nowhere.

Speaking of old shows I started watching the Office recently.

Oh hell it’s crazy. International crime meets Indian reservation meets Amish. It’s good.

Anyone watch Justified? Thinking about checking it out based off reviews.

Saw it a year or 2 ago. Worth the watch.

Good one I have to go back and finish. Timothy Oliphant from Deadwood. He’s great in Justified. But also…if you haven’t done Deadwood yet it’s better than Justified so start there. If you have seen Deadwood then I would like to say “have a wonderful evening you fuckin cocksucker”. If you haven’t seen Deadwood don’t be offended…it’s a thing in that show.

Yeah and the movie wasn’t enough.

It was just so well written
