    Rafi is so good... He reminds me of Leon from curb your enthusiasm in that his scenes usually just rock.

    Good comparison. I would also compare Rafi to Randy Marsh on Southpark, in terms of if you know Randy Marsh will be the focus of a SP episode then you might as well just give the episode a B already with the potential for an A grade.
    With Rafi, as long as he gets a couple of scenes, he makes the show that much better imo.

    Rafi- Legend!:grin:

    yes it was disappointing. They need to incorporate more of the football comedy in there that it seems they've been lacking this season.

    The reverse racism shtick was funny when they related it to white guys not drafting Peyton Hillis.

    They absolutely do not. The football comedy is boring, not funy, and doesn't have a big enough audience. The show has done away with it for a reason. Most of my friends that love the show know nothing about football

    Yeah the football aspects have never been funny to me with the exception of when they ran into Matt Forte at a party. Someone was like, Rafi you know what to do right? Rafi - "yeah, kill him"

    Agree on the former, disagree on the latter.

    Rafi was fantastic on last week's episode. Just disgusting lol.:grin:

    Another classic that I find hilarious is the bit in the first season where they talk about how all black athletes are referred to as "class acts." I don't know why you guys hate on the football comedy...it is hilarious. The show is based on a fantasy football league and needs to continue to draw on that. Though I will admit some of the best moments are from non-football humor, like mr. mcgibblets

    I can't watch this show anymore.

    Taco has never made me even crack a smile once.

    The rest of the guys are douchebags with wives hotter than they could ever get in real life.

    Ruxin is a wannabe Ari Gold.

    I actually thought it was better when they kept the humor football related.

    Show just sucks now though, don't really know why, I just can't seem to stand these guys.

    How can people say that this show needs to "do away with the football humor"? How can a show based on FANTASY FOOTBALL do away with the very substance that the show is based off of?

    That's like Dexter doing away with killing. That's like Lost doing away with the Island. That's like Breaking Bad doing away with meth cooking. That just makes literally zero sense! The football humor is what the show needs to focus on at least a few times each episode, no question about it.

    On another note....Taco is pretty worthless as a character now, though I did enjoy his fake therapy sessions this season. The masturbation incompetency part with Andre was hilarious.

    Rafi is still pure comedy gold and I wish he'd get worked in a few more times an episode.

    But once again...a show can't get rid of it's initial draw. A show about a fantasy football league without any of the fantasy football is just a pointless show

    The lucha libre scene with Rafi is gold! Taco offered to pee on him and then the edible panties and he asked her to sit on his face.

    Anything with Rafi in it is gold. Absolutely loved the last episode. The chloroform scene had me in stitches.
