Anybody else a fan of this and Dwayne Johnson?

Yes.

I like the show. It’s only 30 minutes (airtime usually 20 something minutes) so I’ve watched since the first episode. Not a big Rock fan though.

I've watched a handful of episodes, it's entertaining ...to a point. It's trying to be like Entourage of the football world.

It's entertaining and I'll usually catch it on an off night in repeat but don't consider it must see TV.

Is it just me... ? Rock look extremely uncomfortable in that tight suit. T

i stopped watching it last year. first two episodes didnt suck me in like the first seasons

So far I’ve really enjoyed this series, mostly because I am a fan of Dwayne Johnson. This year it seems to have gone off the rails with the whole sports X thing and now the last two episodes are running a huge racial injustice theme with most all white guys portrayed as spoiled, elitist, corrupt racists. Not very entertaining. I hope it turns itself around before the end of the season. It’s another case of me having enough time invested in the series that I have to let it play out.

Exactly the way I feel and it is interesting that HBO is starting some shit with NCAA, first on Ballers and then the new show that starts tomorrow

They switched a lady social justice director for season 4. Not really a show that will get by being woke. Season 4 has been terrible.

Just finished binge watching season 4 and I'm done with it. I really liked the show for the prior 3 seasons but, like others have mentioned, the "I support Kaepernick" crap and racist bullshit has turned me away from watching any more episodes.

What bothered me the most was when Rickie goes off on how he grew up poor being brought up by his mom, government cheese, and white bread. No mention at all about why daddy-the-professional-football-player wasn't around or providing support. No, it wasn't the fucked up choices his mother and father made - it was all whitey's fault because America's racist, you know, and the man is keeping black people down. Not one reflective moment about how he, his parents, and his culture could have anything to do with how his life was and is.

A lot of respect I had for Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg (both producers of the show) is gone because of their support for, and spin of, this racist movement.
