Ted Lasso Season 1 Episode 3 REACTION!! (full watch along)

There are already two comments who explain the relegation system in football very well, so I'm just gonna say that you are right Steven. In terms of the nickname it's gotta be Diamond Dogs. 😉 I wish you could post two episodes at once, but I know and understand, that your schedule is pretty full. I just love this show and it makes happy to see you two enjoying it so much. Everybody needs a Ted Lasso in their lives. I'd also like to wish you peaceful Christmas holidays with your family. Enjoy the free time with your loved ones.😊❤🎄

Wankers becomes a term of endearment but I don't want to put any spoilers out.

Is anyone else here so stoked by this episode with Nikki & Steven after voting for Ted Lasso for so long because you knew they would adore the show? I was unsure after episode 1 with Nikki but I forgot how much episode 3 and on ropes you in.

Blankzy

D Dogs! and I love your intro's!

SeaShel

it just has to be Diamond Dogs...you will understand soon.

Eric Royer

100% "Diamond Dogs" you will understand later.

FYI,1 person is called a Wa@%er, more than 1 is a bunch of Wa#@ers!

Gary Perry

You're right, Steve. Premier League is the top league (also the strongest league in the world), the bottom 3 teams get relegated to the Championship (confusing name for the 2nd league, I know) and 3 teams get promoted from the Championship. Also, yes, Captain is a huge honor in football and important role. Captains are supposed to be the only ones the referees talk to when explaining a call they made or whatever else. Roy is the vet captain and Jamie is the young star.

Diamond Dogs is the perfect choice. Trent Crimm, Keeley and Roy are some of my favorites on this show, although this show has a lot of great characters.

Jeremy Burch

Fantastic episode this one it really does show how wonderful the characters are . I knew Nikki would love Keeley she's fantastic 🙌 . The offside rule oh yes search Mr blobby offside rule on YouTube for a rather different explanation 😅 if you're British u will know what I'm talking about 🙂 .

Ian

Diamond Dogs is absolutely the only real choice, by the way.

Relegation is basically getting demoted to a lower tier league. At the end of every season, the teams that finish at the bottom of each league get bumped down to the next lower league, and the teams in the lower leagues that finish on top get promoted to the next higher league. There are multiple levels, so you can get relegated down one tier at the end of one season and then get relegated again to an even lower league the next season if you perform poorly. The Premier League is obviously the top tier, and there are 20 teams in the league, with three relegations every season. The EFL Championship League is the next tier down, and the three best teams in that league get promoted up to the Premier League at the end of each season to replace the three Premier League teams that just got relegated. We don't really have anything like that here, but it would be like if the Major League Baseball teams that did the worst each season got bumped down to Triple A minor league the next season, with the best Triple A teams getting moved up into the major league.

This is a great explanation of the offside rule. https://youtu.be/GePlbCsGniA?si=Nwvne4GIDCavNWGy

I hadn’t seen this yet and I didn’t know they’d already seen Diamond Dogs spoiler. Sorry! 😳😆

Christina H

They asked to vote on the name in the introduction. There isn't a spoiler there.

PopeyeNelson

Pam R

Wankers is actually a decent one but it just has to be diamond dogs

JQ

Diamond Dogs babe!!

Gelon

Diamond Dogs.

Vlad D

Really enjoyed this episode and your commentary, except my dog farted for like 30 seconds … I didn’t love it.

Rollo Tomassi

Gotta be Diamond Dogs! Itll be fun for them, will make it fun when they see the term introduced, and theyll see why we all are in agreement on it. Been patiently waiting for this episode to come out, excited to watch it!!

Blankzy

Time will tell why it has to be "Diamond Dogs"!!!!!!!!!

MAV293 (MARK)

Im happy to be a wanker or indeed a Lass-ho but has to be diamond dogs. And also I always watch the intros always have.

Linda Wightman

this is the episode that wins over most people. Roy is seen as a grouch and Trent an antagonist. Its revealed here that both are very good people, in tough jobs that require them to hide behind their brand of professionalism.

Paul T Hewes

it has to be diamond dogs. you know it when you get there. like the Screamin' Firehawks in the Expanse.

Paul T Hewes

hell yeah wankers ill gladly be called a wanker lol

ZitherManifesto

yeah trent is a top 5 character for me

ZitherManifesto

And this is the episode that really locked me in, and kicked things up a notch for me. And the episode that quickly made Trent Crimm (The Independent) one of my favorite characters.
