Collapsed?

Holy shit.

Collapsed?

Holy shit.

Yep.

That's good you're not right there. What a travel nightmare. Gonna take some time to fix that highway. Any idea yet how long it could take or has that not been determined yet?

I’m guessing the better part of the summer. A similar situation happened in Atlanta a few years ago and it was 45 days of around the clock effort to get it completed. I feel bad for local businesses in that area. People are just not going to be able to get there easily so they’ll just go elsewhere.

WTF happened?

They still don’t know. They haven’t been able to locate the driver. They’re still investigating what happened. A tanker truck carrying 87 octane fuel burnt under an overpass and the whole section of highway buckled and cracked under the pressure of the heat.

I’m not a conspiracy theorist but this shit seems really shady. Apparently the truck was parked there.

It did bring forth this comedy though. Always a silver lining. And yes…this dude is pure Philly. I have taught dozens of kids through the years that are exactly like this guy.

LOL.

How long does it last is the real question. These kind of leagues always fade quick.

Honestly, I didn't watch one snap

I watched 5-10

I got Aldana and Dariush.

Just saw this, I would've went opposite. Never was impressed with Aldana personally. I'm not surprised Dariush lost, just a bit in the manner. But Oliveira has been doing that to everyone in that division sans Islam.

Loved season 1! I even got my wife into it. Got to a point that by the 3rd or 4th episode, she was the one midday on Sundays that would say “Oh we have Winning Time tonight!”

I could've done without the unnecessary sidebars into Magic's love life, lol. Seemed like an excuse to throw some nudity into the show.

Haha for sure. At the same time, that’s been the HBO business model forever. They always find ways to work in the stuff that separates pay cable from basic cable:
1. Nudity
2. The Eff Word


Some of my favorite HBO stuff - the Wire and the Sopranos - oh they just happen to make sure that one of the money laundering businesses employed would be a strip club where important characters hang out? You can slip in the bare titties “organically” without messing with the establishment of plot and character development.

Loved it but don't recall who showed it. HBO?

It also served a narrative purpose though. I mean the dude didn't get AIDS being faithful to Cookie

It's intentionally over the top to make it racy. Unnecessary.
