the fucking football show

ted lasso shoudnt give me the emotions it does

[goyeeahaw-deactivated20240417]

Trent, in the press room: would you care to elaborate on your recent comments, Coach Lasso ?

Ted, leaning back in his chair and smiling smugly: I said what I said, Mr. Crimm, and you can quote me on it

Trent, sceptical: are you positive you don’t wish to retract your statement ?

Ted: nope, I’m positive that I—

Keeley, walking into the empty press room and jumping when she sees Trent and Ted inside: shit, guys ! what’re you doing in here ?

Trent, embarrassed: nothing !

Keeley, turning and leaving: hey, no shame in using the press room to talk, Roy and I do it all the time ! have fun boys

Trent to Ted, when Keeley’s finally gone: okay but are you sure you love me ?

OK SO Billy Harris revealed what book Colin got from Ted:

The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho. I was looking through the synopsises of the book and

ow.

alright it’s been 3 weeks since the ted lasso finale it’s time they released the real one idk idk

thinking about how much ted felt like a bystander this whole season, and how much he really felt like one in the finale. politely smiling as the players serenaded him, instead of hooting and hollering and eating it up like we might’ve expected him to. letting rebecca rant on the bleachers, with nothing to say because his decision was already made. soaking up trent’s manuscript but not adding any anecdotes or guffaws while he read it. he was always going to go home. because afc richmond, the whole miraculous season, the past three years, they aren’t about him. they never were.

omg did we not get a jamie x keeley hug until the back half of s3? how did we get jamie x roy hugs before jamie x keeley?? they dated on screen! lmao this is so funny to me. now tat i'm thinking i don't remember any keeley x roy hugs either besides the s1 finale but we must've gotten more right?

Okay my ot3 official hug count is:

1) Roy x Jamie: 3

2) Jamie x Keeley: 3

3) Roy x Keeley: 2

Although they get a tonnnn of onscreen kisses to make up for it. (they definitely should’ve gotten a s3 hug though.)

4) Roy x Jamie x Keeley: 0 :( but many in my heart

Okay, so if I'm writing Ted Lasso fic and it's modern day - as long as I don't include any actual football matches the stuff I'm going to have to google will be way less than Star Wars. Right? Right????

Three hours later

Okay, so in Kansas in order to file a complaint against a licensed psychologist, you'd be filing with the Kansas Behavioral Sciences Regulatory Board, and they do have a specific RAV form they want you to file by mail with any supporting evidence so we're going to have to factor postage times into this...

“All I want is when we win a match, to be able to kiss my fella the same way the guys get to kiss their girls.”

i've heard that laughter is the best medicine....................? let us meme away the pain!

Genuinely so embarrassing on every level. Not only are they stupid as hell, they also can’t fight. Roy got one hit in and it was weak and Jamie got no hits and ripped open his shirt

[eugeniedanglars]

the way i see it, colin has three options for handling the repercussions of kissing michael on the pitch in front of everyone:

gatekeep: by some miracle no one caught the kiss on camera so colin's sexuality is kept between him and any fans who happened to be on the pitch near him. the safest option.

girlboss: keeley gets the pr challenge of a lifetime handling the story of the first active premier league player to come out as gay. rebecca is tall and powerful and intimidating in the press room making it clear that richmond stands behind colin one thousand percent. the most realistic option.

gaslight: straight-up blatantly lying. not because he's ashamed or because he thinks he can actually convince anyone that the kiss didn't happen, but just because he refuses to let it be a big deal. acts like he has no idea what anyone is talking about if asked anything related to his sexuality. he doesn't claim to be straight, mind you, he just pretends to be extremely confused about why they're asking because he never kissed anyone in the middle of a football pitch at the end of an internationally-televised game? when presented with photo and video proof of the kiss he says that was some other richmond player named hughes who wears a number 12 jersey. you don't know him, he goes to another school. the funniest option.
