    Did they make him "darker" or "lighter" for the Ad? I didn't really see a big difference but I also wasn't paying much attention to it

    gotcha... why didn't they just call coke up and let them know what was happening? Seems like the simple solution that they just didn't attempt.

    Yeah it didn't seem that noticeable on TV :idk:

    So is this how the writers determined they could interject a bit of the kneeling/social justice climate of the NFL? If so :facepalm:

    Because the marketing company said that coke didn’t care. Then Alice snow showed up and killed the meeting

    That entire surf competition was so funny. They make it out to be something that Coke would invest in and there are like 40 people there and 4 ft waves. Amazing.

    SO THE PLAN NOW IS FOR SPENCER TO CUT THE TOP QB RECRUIT IN THE COUNTRY IN ON A PLAN TO CHANGE A SURF CHANNEL INTO A COLLEGE FOOTBALL CHANNEL BY HAVING THAT RECRUIT PICK A SCHOOL THAT WILL THEN BREAK THEIR MEGA DEAL WITH WHATEVER MEDIA PARTNER THEY HAVE NOW TO GO SOLO WITH THIS NEW NETWORK RUN BY NO ONE?!?!?!?!?!

    HAHAHAHAHAHA OK THIS IS NOW THE BEST SHOW ON TV!

    I'm not sure if the overarching storyline or a small thing like having USC fill the Rose Bowl for a recruiting visit where the coach has never even met the player is more offensive to the ingellience of viewers.

    I believe his plan is to be his agent and if he ends up ineligible and playing in Canada or some shit for a few years its bad for him.

    You have to applaud the self awareness of this show. It's dumb and ridiculous. Then they throw in the shitbag and shadiness, and blatant racial profiling of OSU to regain some realistic credibility.

    Well done, well done.

    I might be wrong, but I swear up until this week when they were showing upcoming highlights for the rest of the season they said something along the lines of "don't tell me you are taking on the most powerful, corrupt organization in sports" and now this week they seemed to have dropped "corrupt" from the sentence......looks like the NCAA had a little chat with Time Warner

    Why was the QB so upset with the Rock over his pending ineligibility? Wasn't he already driving a G Wagon before he even met the Rock?
