The stroke Nixon pulled before the 68 election killed thousands needlessly. I had no idea about that happening.

Hadnāt known about that earlier. Crazy stuff. And LBJ afraid to reveal it the coward.
He knew because of illegal surveillance thatās why but he should have I agree. The phone conversation where Nixon is lying through his teeth and lbj knows is unreal

Reminiscent of Bertie showing Albert his ballot paper as he shafted him by voting for McAleese.

So my favourite player there was Bobby.
Sigh. 
Why, has something happened to Bobby?
Have you watched it all?
I thought I had. Firing it up right now. Ah if something has happened to Bobby, fuck that.
Watched most of the new series of Last Chance U and the coach has grown on me somewhat. He is a complete mouthpiece but seems to have better intensions than Buddy Stevens.
Malik Henry is an utter cunt though.

Yeah, I couldnāt bring myself to hate Coach Brown. The trips back to Compton where he hung out in the barbers with his Homies was painfully bad, but heās more of an idiot than a cunt. His in-game coaching was atrocious too and most of the teamās problems stemmed from him losing the plot on the sidelines.
Malik is fucked. His bad attitude and self-entitlement are his undoing, I doesnāt help that Coach Brown sneers behind his back because heās from the valley and not from the hood.
Ole Miss were linked with Malik but probably pulled the plug after they watched this. Looks like heās heading back down the JUCO route.
Malikās heart isnāt in it. No leadership or accountability. The scene in the last episode with his dad and private coach summed it up. He is only going through the motions so the father can live vicariously through him. Sad really.
For all that coach Brown was a spoofer he was fairly consistent in his actions and behaviour unlike Buddy who was always trying to hide being a cunt on camera until he couldnāt hold it in no more and he would then explode
Finished QB1. Itās nowhere near as compelling viewing as LCU but an easy enough watch. I found it hard to care about any of the 3 protagonists. Tate is the ultimate spolied asshole qb jock although ridiculously talented and seemed on a different level to the other two. His old mans facial hair, jesus. Fromm was a standard redneck athlete who seemed to just shout āboomā āyeah babyā no matter the circumstances and I found Bowers very, very boring.
I thought Bowers was unimpressive in all his games but maybe that was due to the fact his WRs couldnāt catch a cold. I watched all episodes but donāt think Iād recommend it. We want Rylee.
Much the same. I didnāt mind Fromm, he was probably the most relatable. I found his girlish screams humourous.
Hard to argue with your assessment of the other 2.
Youāve pretty much summed up my thoughts on it also, you cunt.

Nailed it - Tate is a dick, Fromm is a bit touched and Bowers is pretty dull
I liked the new season of LCU. Your man hasnāt a breeze how to coach a team, he just stacked it with ringers 
He thinks his shit is chocolate as well, but I found him much more straight up than that prick Buddy Stevens. At least he knows what he is.
That poor Malik chap has zero interest in playing football. The joy is gone out of it for him
Also, Fromm is the oldest looking 18 year old Iāve ever seen. The chap could pass for mid 30s.
Netflix is excellent value for money in fairness, I havenāt had to use an illegal source for anything in the last few months as there has been enough content on Netflix to keep me going.
The Staircase was excellent viewing 8.5/10. Evil Genius was average 6.5/10.
Have a bit of time off work coming so will get back to The Vietnam War then (cc @anon61956325).
One of the girls in work watched 7 episodes over the weekend ā¦she said it was one of the best docs she had ever seen and couldnt stop watching it.
