Cam is my favorite all time Panther and I wish him nothing but the best in all of his media ventures but reality TV and sports talk /podcasts just ain't it for me. 

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.

Hell, I don't even have network television. LOL

I stream sports and that's my only exposure to network television

That was a good watch.

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.

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.

      First 4 NFL starts - Tyler Shough

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Completion percentage depends on the offense and type of QB.  So no I don't care about a raw comparison lol. If you don't know what I mean by that I don't know what to tell you. As to Baker, this is the second time you've ignored me and claimed I didn't say something when I did. I'm going to just stop r spending to that crap soon but on the possibility you are just missing these things in good faith - "Baker Mayfield is 11th in QBR, 14th in yards despite the TON of injuries that offense has had, 10th in QB rushing yards, 12th in TDs (and above the average in TD% lol), 25th in INTs (league average would be something like 16th). So yes, he's quite a bit ahead of the average in many categories." Rushing yards by a QB DO matter. You'd think Panthers fans would know that.  Some of Bryce's best plays have come when he uses his legs too, and some of that IS yards on the ground. And the reality is that Tampa has had crazy injury issues and if you look at Bakers career he is unquestionably more successful than Bryce and above average at that. This year his top 3 WRs have all missed considerable time and whose best player on offense hasn't played almost all year...

      Look at the chart. if you are claiming his numbers prove he not  an NFL caliber QB, than neither is Bo Nix, Trevor Lawrence, Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Michael Penix, CJ Stroud, Baker Mayfield and Mahommes. They are all below average and within 2 points of Youngs' numbers.

      Could be worse. Captain Clempsun is sub 60% completion
