  1. The celebrities have a tough enough time with what they're doing. Can't imagine if they got the full treatment. That last test they did in the surf? I know I'd have tapped out of that one quick
  2. Re: Cam As you could probably guess, his personality didn't initially mesh well with the no-nonsense special forces guys, but they respected his performance in the challenges and he's been a good "teammate" to some of the others on the show. FYI: Also appearing this season is Golden Tate, who per his own words seems to be kind of lost in his post football life. After completing a challenge, Newton went to give Tate a high-five and somehow inexplicably wound up punching him in the stomach That incident got him yelled at. The leaders further followed that up by punishing the entire crew with an exercise that I can best describe by saying...imagine waterboarding yourself.
  3. It's a fun show. Lady Cowboy Fan and I have been watching from the start. This is, I think, their third season. They've had a lot of former athletes on from the NFL (Danny Amendola was on the last one) NBA and others, but they haven't won. The winners of the first two seasons included one women's soccer star (Carli Lloyd) and some reality show personalities, mostly from The Bachelor or The Bachelorette. The physical challenges are certainly tough, especially on some of the older folks, but what tends to derail people is the mental side of it. Some can't keep their attitudes under control, others just tap out. Many are doing the show because they have demons to deal with, and you see a lot of that come out. You definitely can't assume you know who will succeed and who won't either. Last year, Dez Bryant flamed out in spectacular fashion while Jojo Siwa actually went much further than I'd have thought. And as you might expect, you come away from it with a real appreciation for just how badass some of these special forces guys really are.
  4. And then there's this... I c certainly don't feel like parting with Canales, but the silly, speculative part of me wonders what we could get for him
  5. FYI: Source on that is David Newton
  6. Well, here's some insight... Wow
  7. Newton promoting the show...
  8. You can probably stream this from Fox somewhere...
  9. Honestly, it's a pretty good show, probably even more so for anyone with a military background. The celebrities who take part tend to get their asses kicked.
  10. I feel like the carousel isn't really gonna start till Johnson's destination (or lack of one) is known.
  11. The Fox reality show with Cam Newton as a contestant premiers tonight at 8pm.
  12. Maffei was a holdover from the previous two coaching staff. He'd been thought to be a smart guy on the rise... ...guess not smart enough
  13. I've wondered if he hit the proverbial rookie wall in the last part of the season.
  14. Just helped me say hello again to last night's dinner
  15. I feel like there's some sort of subtext to this response
  16. Joe Person (speaking as Thanos)
  17. I've been pining for the next Ryan Kalil for several years now. Seeing us pass on Zach Frazier didn't help. My gut still wants to see a young center drafted but I do think Cade Mays has done well in the role. Some may like Brady Christensen better but I've always preferred him as our utility guy. Austin Corbett has said that he wants to stay in Carolina. If he does, I kinda hope it's not at center. I don't really think that was the best spot for him. His injury issues might make that decision for him, though
