Last Chance U

Bump

I’ve been binging and I had fallen off when I didn’t have so much free time. Not sure any of this hasn’t been said but a few thoughts.

Both head coaches are pieces of shit as proven by many of their actions but cutting Bruce without talking to him and then giving him a 4 leg bus ticket shows what an absolute dirtbag Brown is.

For all his yelling about being a man this is such a punk move.

At this point I am more hate watching.

 

I told my wife this morning at least we have Last Chance U to depend on in a few weeks.

"Thank God!" was the response.

This show is like my crack. Don't tell me this is the last fucking season.

 

Looking for news on this, I just watched a 2-minute interview with coach Jon Beam.

No screaming. No expletives.

If it's come to this pass, maybe it is time they shut it down.

 

Well, the school isn't out of the woods on some of that type of notoriety!

Weird to give a review after only watching 3 minutes of the new season but....

We get a montage of a number of players talking candidly and clearly about where they're there, sounding like adults way beyond their years. After everything that's gone before, that's weird.

 

The last five minutes comes out of no where.

This is not a shit show. It might be better.

 

I've worked in Oaktown for 30 years and Laney College is right nearby. Very cool to see the story set here. Only 20 mins into Ep. 1 but very nice storylines set up. Its tough man, one dude driving from Stockton every day is no joke. Rent is sky high, even for the lowest areas.

 

These kids seem a whole lot easier to root for on the whole. They definitely seem a little more mature than the offerings for the first four seasons. It's nice to watch a coach that isn't a rambling asshole for a change. Just a simple thing like him seeing a kid was dealing with something heavy and taking him out of practice so he could speak to the coach's therapist wife was a nice display of humanity not often seen in this series.

 

I think we have gone from “why the fuck do they play JC football?” to “this is why they play JC football.”
