    Vince Vaughn has been fine. The fight scene against the Mexican was kind of stupid, but whatever. I loved Friday Night Lights, but Tim Riggins is a bad actor. I know his character is supposed to be somewhat of a dolt, but the guy offers nothing except being good looking (75k).

    He's pretty bad, just holds a pensive stare into the distance. Vince Vaughn has been pretty good. I like how he was introduced as former thug gone good, was generally likeable, and now is going back full thug.

    The fight was pretty fucking stupid. If you think a mexican gang leader with fuck you gold teeth has the old school honor to submit after losing a fist fight, you're crazy.

    At the most he gets assassinated, at the least he starts a crippling gang war.

    I still don't know what I'm really watching. I know Colin Farell is an alcoholic, Taylor Kitsch likes dudes and chicks, Vince Vaugn can't get a boner, and Rachel McAdams is kinky. I think they are working on a case?

    He wants to like chicks but he doesn't. He likes dudes and he hates himself for it.

    So what you're saying is, he lacks #Courage.

    Fuck me for admitting I watched the first part of the ESPY's but Rachel McAdam's plunging blazer gave me a side/underboob boner.

    What a fucking disappointment this season has been so far. I'm trying to figure out if this was season 1 would they have green-lit a season 2.

    They blow up half the block, kill a bunch of random mexicans (who kill a bunch of random civilians), and then they continue the story next episode 2 months later? Everyone has been relegated to a shitty job, how sad.

    I literally give zero fucks about what's at stake in this story. Corrupt politicians are corrupt, ok. Spoiled wannabe gangster pimp mayor's son is running girls with some random russian mobster from the opulent geico commercials. Vince Vaughn's shady henchman and rick springfield like to kick it with them too.

    Meanwhile Tim Riggins' cliche whore mother jacked his 20k in hazard pay because Riggins is as dumb as he looks and hid it in a locker in her winnebago instead of putting it in a lockbox. He's also really mad that he is gay, which is important because it's not.

    McAdams better get naked soon, her dragging her ex-whore sister back into the life she just left for college is going to get her killed next episode. Then McAdams, ovaries swelling, will get Pat Hill tuff and crack the case as all the feminists cry up to their moms with pride.

    Vince Vaughn had some really shitty lines in this one, nobody gives a fuck he is shooting blanks into a barren redhead. I guess it humanizes him or something. Ray is the only interesting character left. The twist about the rapist was 90% expected after the looks Vaughn gave his henchman the very first time they met in episode 1. Does it really mean anything beyond Ray beating the shit out of Vince Vaughn and going even more rogue?

    I'll still finish the season bc there is nothing else to do in Mom's basement, but it gets zero more slack. Maybe it will be the reverse of season 1 and finish strong, but i can't imagine anything outside of a jagged flint mudslide over Vinci having any impact. Shit shit story.

    yeah, I can't really figure out a point beyond "people are fucked up, let's have a bunch of cliche fucked up in the head people interact." The storyline is far from compelling.

    I think this season is far better than the first. I think Rachel McAdams is way over rated as an actress and for hotness

    People fail to realize that 95% of actresses aren't all that hot. Many are attractive and definitely fuckable, but you can go anywhere that isn't dirt poor from LA to San Diego and see women everyday much hotter. I'm not trying to be facetious, but if I saw Rachel McAdams look-a-like at a bar I wouldn't think anything of it.

    The reason you can't have the actresses be too hot is because they want women to like them. So actresses like McAdams, Aniston, Bullock, etc are the most famous because of this reason. They are white and pleasant looking but not too hot.
