If you didn’t watch The League, you missed one of the greatest ball busting TV shows of all time.

[@crediblecommenterr]

I was in 9/11

[@PmcKing12]

Can’t believe this show has been over for this long. Loved The League

[@zachyaylor]

@@crediblecommenterrme too. I was in the tower when it hit. I was so scared. But then I wasn’t. I rescued hundreds of people. And little old ladies. And kittens. I’ve been telling the story. For years. In great detail. Because I’m not a compulsive liar with narcissist sociopathic tendencies.

[@notsocrates9529]

It feels... I don't know. I loved that show when it aired, but looking back at it, it comes off edgy and mean just for the sake of it.

[@DCGZombies]

Rewatching it after so many years it’s so damn funny! Couldn’t stop laughing at the end of the Bobbum Man episode.

[@BytorTheSnowDog]

Literally rewatch the whole show every 1-2yrs Never gets old

[@othello106]

Still one of the funniest shows I have ever watched. As a matter of fact I'm gonna go watch it all over again.

[@pjny21]

I rewatch every year before my fantasy football draft lol

[@drumusic5665]

Actually has a worth while box set with extended episodes. Some really funny scenes get added

"Eskimo brothers, fear boners, anticiperection" in the lexicon. Dont forget Shiva blasting and my personal favorite, Dickarus.

I like the one where Steve Rannazzisi lied about escaping the WTC on 9/11

[@seansmith4880]

Yeah, that might be worse than helping your wife fake breast cancer. Not sure, let's call it a tie.

[@mojomaster38]

This is how my friends and I spoke to each other outside of fantasy football, but we were even worse when we would shit talk from the draft on. Most of us didn't have kids yet, or they couldn't read yet. The last year I played, my one buddies son came in, and I didn't know. He learned real quick how we talked to each other when the kids weren't around.

[@33bceltics]

The League was appointment television. I miss this show so much

[@Chris-gw8or]

This is great! I miss this show so much

[@RustCole01]

That's pretty interesting about Ellie being Dave Foleys daughter. I actually thought she had some hilarious scenes in the show

"Daddy... Am I a choad Juggler?"

[@jasonm1827]

Just starting rewatching this for the 5th time 😂 absolutely love this show!

[@Ptrixle]

I really wish that they would reboot this show, imagine they stopped playing fantasy football for various reasons and the first few episodes is kevin putting the league back together again. I'd be so in for that.

[@Dhoehn24]

Would love to see a league movie/mini series with modern players. My league was started right around the middle of the show and loved every minute of it.

[@gooner03]

This show was amazing, consistently funny which is a very hard thing to do.

I just rewatched this over the summer

It's gonna be a movie 🎬

Why did Steve have to lie about 9/11? Maybe we would have seen a reunion if he didn’t screw up so bad

[@enriquerodriguez7732]

100 percent.

[@Stbuster31]

Get over it

[@GotDamBoi]

It's funny how people criticize this dude all the time but turn a blind eye to the stuff their favorite players do in the NFL lol.

[@laxpaint]

I mean, the last president lied about 9/11 and he became president so why can’t we have this one thing?

[@thunderfist232]

People in the industry have done worse and still have a good thing going on after that Steve did royally screwed up but not bad enough to not get any other gigs I think the reason it hit him this hard was because he was using it as his go to origin story into the entertainment industry and that he was a small time actor with not much work experience or contacts under his belt

[@sirKonradical]

My wife and i still use " going to the cloud"

[@sungondese]

So Katie Aselton doesn't age?

[@Stbuster31]

Probably the bo tox but she's still a stunner

[@ericthurlow4565]

I still watch this show every day. I watch it to go to sleep. The only downside after watching so many times is you can see how the punchlines were forced in. So many jokes were shoe horned in by the writers. That and the one guy lied about being at ground zero on 9/11. I still love the show though.

Steve would not have quit the show over not winning, maybe over 9/11 but not over losing some cast league

[@razzle8140]

That's because "shit sipper" just isn't a good insult. Doesn't sound right.

[@Omar-et7sb]

Was this before we realized the dude playing Kevin is a weirdo in real life who lied about 9/11?

[@brianrieger8427]

[@thoughtsontape4283]

No it’s people like you who wouldn’t allow the show to come back. If it’s not pandering to you you will call it “woke” and not watch it. There’s nothing about the show that would make it problematic today besides you dumbasses thinking it’s gone “woke”.
