You need to be fully financed by the end of the week
if we're gonna push you through.
Ah, so this is a collection call?
Full transparency, there are competing offers on the team.
Is this a joke?
What if we bought a franchise?
Who's gonna run the show now that Joe Krutel is no longer?
The moment we take control of the team,
we can bring in our own people.
Surgery went well.
- How long is it gonna take? - To recover?
You're looking at eight months.
Time has run out.
- OBJ! - There he is.
We are about to break ground on a one-of-a-kind campus.
Sports, art...
When we're done, this is gonna be the house that O built.
How's the world of security?
Is that Kasan Teague?
I ain't do nothing but be at the wrong place
at the wrong time.
I need you to be the new president of Kansas City.
I'm getting a promotion. You're making me the number two?
You set me up.
I know that you're resourceful.
And there's no one I'd bet on more than Spencer Strasmore.
Kane is in the building.
Competitive spirit,
people think you're born with it,
that it's in your DNA.
But that's not how it works.
More often, it's born out of experience.
The only thing worse than losing is being cut.
How's the executive search going?
I thought that we could grab Candace Brewer,
but she's gonna stay put.
That's not exactly the update I was hoping for.
It's gonna make my meeting with these bankers
that much more conflicted.
I'm heading in right now
to have a meeting with a potential GM.
Spencer, potential isn't enough!
I need to know whether you guys are in or out.
Well, I need to know who the management team is.
That's not too much to ask for 3 billion.
I thought you guys were "fuck you" rich.
Yeah, fuck you!
Nobody keeps that kinda stash underneath their mattress.
Look, for the first time in his life,
my brother, the dick, is being reasonable.
I agree with him, though I'd never tell him that.
All right, what's the solution?
Well, how 'bout we put the old band back together?
- Which members? - Which members? You and me!
Hall & Oates, Sam & Dave, Donny & Marie.
I'd be the chief CFO,
and you'd be free to focus on football operations.
See, now that's something I can sell to my brother.
I'll take your silence as acquiescence.
Asshole.
There he is.
Yo, Reginald, how's V's deal comin'?
Gettin' closer,
but I also got him a tryout with Splyce
for their League of Legends team.
- I mean, it's really... - Whoa, Reggie.
Focus on dominating a real league,
not a virtual one.
So what do ya got?
Got to admit, I'm in a little bit of a mood.
I think you're really gonna like what I did here.
- Needs a statue. - Yeah, something enormous.
What, like our version of "Christ the Redeemer"?
Yeah, is that so wrong?
I want a temple.
That's not in the fucking budget.
Ah.
Your ego's getting a bit biblical, mate.
It's very Spencer-like.
What the fuck did you just say?
Would you give us a minute, mate?
Can I ask you a personal question?
Mm-hmm.
Were you abused as a child?
- No. - A little bit?
No, as an adult, every single fucking day,
and I'm sick of it.
I don't wanna be David anymore, Lance.
I wanna be Goliath.
Goliath lost to David.
You've missed the point of that story entirely.
But, listen, I think you're gettin' a bit cloudy
'cause you're obsessing about your ex-partner.
I won't deny it.
I wanna bury the fuckin' guy.
I'd like to be the bigger person,
but I'd rather be a better version of him.
Then let's figure out
how to bring the big man to his knees.
There's my special guy.
I mean, that's easy, right?
We just have real influence
over the league and the game.
It's a little late in the day
to try and become Goodell or Belichick there, mate.
Well, then you know what I'm gonna do?
I'm gonna buy an agency.
Yo, Chuck, you got a minute?
Hos, if you got more bad news, save it.
I'm having a rough day.
Come on, now, there's always more to know.
Yeah, well, what now?
Should I stay away from Red Lobster?
That's funny, Chuck.
I like that.
No, the latest Jack in the Box recon
brought some new intel to light.
Spit it out.
LAPD found a 9 millimeter
registered to Kisan Teague.
Oh!
This idiot.
For using his own gun or for being there?
Both.
I was just curious what side of the aisle you were on.
I'm on the side that thinks it's amazing
that a guy just can't enjoy making a few mil
while playing the greatest sport on the planet.
Millennials, I mean,
they're just never fucking happy.
Oh!
You know what, Hos? I need you to do me a favor.
Stop telling me stuff.
I need some sort of plausible deniability.
Right, you and everyone else.
There's a lot of chat
about the moves you've been making.
Yeah, I know I shoulda stayed retired.
- People need you. - The league needs you.
Besides, now that they're being smart about their...
business, presenting a new beautiful face...
Although to those of us that know you,
we see two beautiful faces.
Now, that hurts.
Nothing hurts more than the truth.
Jason, I know I fucked you last year with Quincy.
I wanna make it right.
What is this, a mercy fuck?
I want you to be my new GM.
Wow.
You want me to cross over?
Like motherfuckin' Steph Curry.
Wow, you have more confidence in me
than I have in myself.
Well, and for good reason.
You think I could be good at this?
I think you'd be great at it, yes.
Plus I think it's time you had a new challenge.
Yeah, I mean, shit, I've already proven to be
the best agent in the business, right?
So is that a yes?
That's a let me think about it.
That's what I'm talking about.
Let's go!
14. That's my boy. 15.
16.
Well, you only need to do ten, Rick.
I know, two dimes, two dimes.
You doing two dimes?
19.
- Oh, shit, Ricky. - Look at you, man.
You actually look like you may come back this season.
I ain't coming back.
Yeah, be careful, buddy.
Sometimes rehab will fuck with your head a little bit.
Shit, my mind is clear.
Oh, yeah, you're a model of stability.
Anything you need, you know I got ya.
Actually, networks,
they're always looking for a new chiseled jaw.
That ain't my thing, man. That's you.
Smart move, Ricky.
I wouldn't wanna compete against this either.
Pfft, let's go.
Melvin!
- Yo. - What's good?
Yo, Rick, coolin', baby.
- You a'ight? - Yeah, man.
You healing up from that Kia collision?
Seriously, it was a Prius, man.
You can't hear 'em comin'.
Yeah, I hear you.
- Yo, where y'all headed? - Nowhere fast.
Look, I got a couple cats comin' to the crib, man.
Y'all down to hang?
Shit, that's all I got is time, brah.
Yeah, see you then.
- A'ight, we'll be there. - Text me the address.
- Got you, bro. - My man.
There's nothin' worse
than being ahead of your time.
Pfft, how about being behind it?
See, some people just can't handle new ideas.
Right, if it ain't their idea,
they don't like it.
That's real.
Hey, bro, what can I do
to get Joe to buy in on me?
Man, I believe in you, always have.
Isn't that all that matters?
Sadly, I need more.
Dude thinks that messing around with architects
is more important than the future of sports.
Galileo had the same problem.
What you know about Galileo?
Almost as much as I know about Copernicus.
Yo, are you seriously
dropping Galileo and Copernicus on me?
How you know about them boys?
Blinkist.
It's the app that shrinks books to audio.
So then you know how I feel.
Yeah, man.
Only one way to do this, then:
Show Joe the future,
and it starts today with your tryout.
I ain't been this nervous since my pro day.
Babe, if you get stuck out there any longer,
I'm gonna have to get new batteries for the vibrator.
I know, babe. I'm sorry.
Besides Ricky, who's never gonna play again,
Kisan and his gang decided to go "Boyz n the Hood"
on this rival crew at a Jack in the Box.
Doesn't take a clairvoyant to see Kisan was gonna fuck up.
Maybe it's time for a career change.
Why'd you say that?
I don't know, maybe 'cause
you're stressed to shit all the time,
talking like you're a 60-year-old mine worker?
It is so weird that you would say that
because I had a meeting with Spencer earlier today,
and that fool bought the Chiefs and offered me a job.
Maybe you are clairvoyant.
Maybe I'm the Miami Medium.
What's the gig?
GM.
Isn't the GM spot just as stressful
as what you're doing now?
In a way, but, you know,
I wouldn't have to answer to clients,
although I've never worked for anybody,
so I'm not sure I'll be crazy about having a boss,
although it would be Spencer.
You work for everyone, even me,
and you're doing just fine.
Well, thank you for the report card.
Maybe you should change those batteries after all.
Don't be a dick.
I'm just saying
if we're gonna have to move to fuckin' Kansas City,
you should at least make sure you guys would be a good team.
Well, no shit.
Business isn't friendship.
You should do due diligence. Go talk to Joe.
He'll tell you what it's really like
to work with Spencer.
- That's a good idea, babe. - Good.
Now, why don't you show me a little somethin'?
- Yo, Rick. - Hey, Money Mel!
- What's up, man? - Oh, Big Mel!
- Okay! - What's up, my baby.
Hey, man, your crib is plush, man.
- You design this shit? - Appreciate it, Rick, man.
Gettin' into the interior design thing.
Actually just renovated the place.
Nigga, you're like a natural Martha fuckin' Stewart.
Yo, you should check out my real spot.
- Your real spot? - Come on, Rick, man.
This where we play, not work.
This is the fun house.
Oh, shit.
Oh, yeah, he got a fun house, okay.
Man, look, I got to go check on my mom, man.
I'ma hit you up later.
Oh, yeah, tell her we I
