  • Lost me

    The new show is kind of like NASCAR as of today. It’s kind of lost its way and lost its hard-core audience of who it was.

    I gave it a shot, even after I found out the truth about Rick going behind Bubba’s back.

  • Missing Bubba

    This show has some talented people who are good natured. My issue is they kicked a teammate off the team. When I listened my heart went out to Bubba wondering if he is listening from the outside. I can’t listen anymore knowing the group threw away a teammate.
