This show has gone from a ten for me down to a one. The repackaging of Jay Glazer and Micheal Strahan basically "Titaniced" this show for me. When the show first came on I found the concept unique and interesting along with the interesting assortment of athletes that you would see such as Goldberg, Coutere mixing in with Jerry Rice, etc. and what I found most interesting was the commentary by that hilarious first host Papadakis. The concept was great for the first four season then they brought in Glazer and Strahan and instead of the interesting assortment of athletes you had basically the same athletes every second episode and it seemed forced instead of the spontaneous feel it had the first four seasons and the last seasons athletes seemed to be very boorish. In the first four seasons one always wanted the pros to show up the braggart in the competition but in the last season the athletes were jerks along with the contestants and unlikeability of both sides makes the viewing suffer. A good show gone bad for no reason !!!!!!

I was surprised to see the show allow the "Pro" football players to continue to hit the Joe contestant after the man was down. I watched the "Pros" Bill Goldberg and Kevin Greene continue to hit the contestant after he was down, and rough him up. This continued, over several downs, without a referee, until a contestant was injured, and limped off the field. The show's Director should have stopped the show the moment "Pro", Bill Goldberg, threatened to knock out the teeth of the contestants. Bill Goldberg should have been thrown off the show, and the audience told that the show does not condone "Pros" intentionally injuring Joes. You cannot sign away negligence & malice.

This is the show where loud mouth wannabe athletes get schooled by the pros that they so unjustly scorn. I can't stop watching this. John Rocker can kick a mean soccer ball, even though it isn't his first sport. Jose Cansaco can still hit the homers. Claude Lemieux is an old, dirty, male, illegitimate, child. How about the joes? Boy, can they...talk. That is my only problem with this show. Isn't there anyone out there who has respect for the athletes and can play? It seems like they pick the most annoying people to make complete fools of themselves. I suppose they call that great TV. Watch this to see that just because a pro doesn't play their sport professionally anymore, doesn't mean that they can't play anymore.

I love the concept of Pros versus Joes you really understand how its both the fan and the players who can be arrogant. But cm-on going across the middle against Romanowski would have been terrifying 7 years ago and covering jerry Rice would have been impossible 6 years ago. Many of these guys are out of their primes which in sorts (almost)deprives the Joes a confident win. The battles between the had and haves vs. the could haves make it all the more fun, as one side tries to prove the other inferior. But hey my favourite part is no one can come close to out-homering Bo Jackson still, at almost age 45 with a hip replacement, until he decides to bunt ha ha. solid idea and great viewing whether your a fan or not, retro or young.
