58 years old and hadn't been in the ring since 2005. I'm seriously wondering WTF people were expecting.

Maybe if Mike Tyson had gone on Joe Rogan's podcast he would have won.

 

[Te'o4Heisman]

finally started snowfall

He lost his legs after the second round. After that, he was planted and stuck.

I didn't watch it, but from what I've read, it appears to me that he wasn't doing enough training if he lost his legs that quickly.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Did people really think a 58 year old Mike Tyson was going to look and fight like it was 1987?

 

[Fbolt]

Fix

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

1. Season 6 of Sopranos rewatch.

Did people really think a 58 year old Mike Tyson was going to look and fight like it was 1987?

Definitely not, but there was hope he might at least put some mean combos on Paul based on the training clips he put out. We didn't really see any of that, but probably because the fight was scripted.

Just watched first 2 episodes of Taylor Sheridan’s new show “Landman”

I'm sure everyone has talked about Mr Inbetween,

But if you haven't seen it, it's really good.

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

I'm really excited for Severance Season 2 on AppleTV. If you haven't seen it, give it a watch, really good show. Give it one episode, then it takes off.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

LOL. Got distracted. So far, so good. Billy Bob Thornton is perfect for his role hair implants notwithstanding.

Seems pretty rigged to me...

Seems pretty rigged to me...

Seeing a lot of those allegations swirling. No idea one way or another but wouldn’t be shocked if it was. I think Tyson evolved into the lovable pot smoker who is more recently known for movie cameos. For those that forgot or weren’t around when Tyson was dominating the Heavyweight division of boxing, he had a really messed up life that is about as dysfunctional as one could imagine. Think he got $30M for this fight and wouldn’t be surprised if that money is already spent.

Finally saw episode 2 of yellowstone. The rattlesnake scene can fuck right off.

He went to jail for rape.

 

[Irish#1]

He went to jail for rape.

Right here in Indy where he got to know our jail.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

He went to jail for rape.

he went to jail 38 times by the age of 13. before he met up w/ Cus D’Amato. Had a coke habit that would impress Tony Montana. And then there was the well publicized rape of Desiree Washington.

“Desperate to reduce his sentence, he (Tyson) consults a psychic, who advises him to urinate on a $500 bill and hand it to her.

The judge jails him for 6 years.”

Watched the series Say Nothing. Not as good as the book which usually goes without saying but not bad.

Biggest criticism would be the lack of an examination of the Unionist paramilitaries, their collusion with the British government which was both extensive and systemic and the role that played in The Troubles. That was covered in the book.

Anyhow, pretty entertaining stuff.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

Just watched the latest episode of Yellowstone. Much better than the first two. Angry Kayce is my favorite Kayce.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Finished the second season of The Diplomat on Netflix.

Allison Janney is very good.

 

[sixstar]

Silicon Valley (HBO, 2014 - 2019) is tremendous.
Probably the funniest comedy series I've ever watched, and spot on with some of its portrayals of startup and SWDEV culture.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Three episodes. I'm two in. Tony Rice got a brief mention.

Charlie Ward plays in today's NFL. Zero question.

Good crossover interviews with Steve Young and Josh Allen. Steve Young lamenting about how there were no RPOs back when he played.

Really good football stuff.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Just started Season 2 of “Lioness”. Definitely worth watching. The only part that I don’t like in the storyline is how main character is a CIA op who is away from home more than not & her husband is a pediatric Surgical Oncologist making his job very high stress & time consuming as well. Meanwhile, they are rarely around to raise their two young daughters. Maybe that’s commonplace but seems unrealistic Or maybe it’s spot on in today’s world where career trumps everything.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

It's pretty good. Engaging. Gets a little crazy in the last three episodes. Toeing the line on shark jumpy. But it passed the time. We liked it.

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

Penguin is definitely a fun drama series. I'm not sure you really even have to be a Batman fan to enjoy it, it's more just a crime/mobster mini-series.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

It's awesome.

 

[dublinirish]

It's awesome.

watched first two episodes, weird seeing Knightley doing stunts/action and stuff, not usually her bag

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

Watched ep. 1 of Chernobyl last night on Max....made me sick to my stomach watching the radioactive ash falling on those oblivious families and their children. Can tell this is going to be quite a gut-wrenching series.

Season 8 The Office superfan episodes just dropped on Peacock.
