Something jumped out at me. Ted brought his biscuits and they were made salty. He said he mixed up the sugar probably. Did he just let Rebecca know he was the one cooking those biscuits??? I figured she thought they were from a secret bakery she had yet to find out about.

Did I miss when he confessed they were homemade?
came out in 1 I believe.

Also, was the only thing they did with Trent Crimm revealing his source was to move his storyline along. Really nothing changed with Ted knowing that information. Even Beard figured out.

Yeah, I didn't really get that decision by the writers. The only people who knew were the Diamond Dogs, so the reveal could have happened quickly and still more organically.

I think the only reason Trent got fired was for the 'Trent Crimm, Independant' joke.

Yup, they were in a bit of an argument about Jamie leaving and Ted says how he hopes the biscuits aren't that good, then says something like "But dang it this is the best batch yet, I finally cracked the recipe!"

I wonder if they set it up for him to come in to replace Keely as the head of PR for the team.

Seems like they were setting up something with that Crimm scene, beyond the independent joke I hope. The "something more meaningful" line and locking keys is car, just seemed like something was going to happen with that character.

I figured they would just hire Keelys company for PR work.

He's gonna bring Rupert down.

Yep Eurovision....the over the top song contest. I always watch with closed captions anyway. And that line was great its an obscure reference but really funny that they would watch it.

Ohhhh.. okay. I kind of like him rooting against England in soccer better.

Except they definitely did not get 0 points in Euro 2020 (played in 21). They won their group and beat Germany, Ukraine and Denmark before tying Italy in the final and losing 3-2 on shootout goals.

Lol. I'm aware, I watched the tourney.

Sorry - edit because I sounded too dickish. I don't think results in the show have to follow real life quite that closely.

sure....touche'

except they were talking about the REAL Eurovision where the UK got 0 points.

they don't have to reference real events of course but no reason not to if it were soccer (outside of their league) or eurovision.

This is exactly what I thought when he said he'd been fired. He's not a super developed character, but I don't see him just fading away for good.

Are we going to finally meet Sam's parents in S3? Seems like he might bring them in to run the restaurant?

Why would someone who was portrayed as a serious journalist take a PR/Marketing job with a football club?

Why would they promote the kit guy to head coach of a premier league team in less than 2 years? If you start to put logic into your tv watching you're gonna find holes everywhere.

To answer the question though, he respects Ted and the way he motivates the team and wants to be part of the turn around. Biggest critic to working hand in hand? It's got a nice ring to it right?

That said, I also like what others have said with him staying an inside reporter and somehow bringing Rupert down.

Hell probably write a book or become a private eye or something.

Also, I'd probably watch that show too.

Trent becomes an embedded reporter with Richmond following them all season to them winning it all and writting a book about the season and Ted Lasso. The name of the book is The Independent.

Yeah, they play fast and loose with the soccer and financial sides of the plot lines.


They totally missed the playoffs by finishing 2nd.

Was Jamie not incredibly offside on the pass that led to his penalty?

Had to try and explain to the wife what offsides was because I said it immediately.

After 11 years of watching ours kids play soccer, my wife knows offside very well.

I still crack up when I think of Beard trying to explain offsides to Ted in the last episode of season 1 using condiment bottles to represent players.

Offsides: when a defender is across the line of scrimmage at the snap.

Offside: when a player is closer to the goal than the 2nd to last defender or the ball and becomes involved in the play. (And other ways)
