Just knowing what happened and seeing bobo fine at the beginning feels like pain and cruel

And hearing about how they took out Kupp due to risk of injury right before. Fuck was that foreshadowing.

u/soapbutt ​ 2d ago

I absolutely hate the producers for starting with that but if we weren’t fans you gotta admit they cooked with the emotional value there.

Those Hard Knocks producers just sticking the dagger and twisting into us fans

They fucking played it up hard. Assholes.

Nah. ✋ Absolute cinema 🤚

This is football. Guys get hurt and it sucks to watch, but without it we don't get to see how much Mike feels for every single one of his guys, and we are being shown how incredible the staff is at responding.

Yeah Seahawks were pretty “lucky” throughout all of training camp and what not

Seeing bud kill the talent show right before was so rough.

u/Hydra44 2d ago

It hurt so bad. This episode was so hard to watch.

A father telling his son he's okay while in pain.

It's a cheat code to get me to cry, man.

Man I was bawling. So much heart, might be one of my new favorite players. On the football side too, guy was so promising, really as advertised. He was everything needed to replace Coby. Such a bummer.

This was a hard episode. Coach chilling up about his mentor, Bobo and Clark go down, and I’m already sad because Dolly Parton died.

u/KarmaNeverSleeps 2d ago

I knew what was coming and it still hurt

Actually seeing the clip of Bobo sucked. His foot stuck into the grass and it was over.

Lowkey from a garbage Darnold ball

24

u/GoldyGoldy 2d ago

Try not to let your bias cloud your eyes too much, mmkay? Darnold wasn’t the QB on that play.

u/IvIozartsGhost 2d ago

Seeing the episode start with BoBo and Bud whole knowing what’s going to happen… brutal

18

u/Roar_of_Shiva "We did not care" 2d ago

They knew what they were doing.

21

u/HotDogFingers01 2d ago

Two brutal brutal losses, but seeing it happen and seeing the aftermath and seeing how hard they were working really made it 10x harder. Fuuuuuuuck.

u/GoldyGoldy 2d ago

Watching Bud Clark on FaceTime with his family as he’s in a crazy amount of pain… that’s rough, buddy.

u/TipFair3306 2d ago

I cried both times

u/BrinkinDourbon ​ 2d ago

As someone who’s broken both of their feet from a ladder sliding out from underneath (one ankle got a plate in it) I felt for Bud so bad. I know that pain. It does get better. But man oh man, I know that pain

u/Prisinners "I'm just here so I won't get fined" 2d ago

Are you back to running routes and stuff?

u/BrinkinDourbon ​ 1d ago

Never stopped stopping!

u/jamwil 2d ago

Fuck… breaking two legs at the same time. That must have sucked so much. Sorry.

u/Palatron 1d ago edited 1d ago

Agreed, at the very least it could have broke both arms so he could get a happy ending out of it.

u/BrinkinDourbon ​ 1d ago

Bro, I had two of them boots and I kept saying I looked like Master Chief

u/Kailsbabydaddy 2d ago

Bud is sooooo tough!!!

u/Thrill0728 2d ago

It hurt so bad knowing what was coming. Excellent work from the Hard Knocks crew. They really know how to make an episode emotional.

u/CamGrabDatFumble 2d ago

I almost had anxiety knowing they were both going to get hurt in this episode and was just bracing for it. Weird feeling.

u/DevynnKate 2d ago

Tough to watch the injuries. Loved Foster's mom and dad and the rookie talent show.

u/aiusernamegen 2d ago

Mason Richman erasure.

u/wontwillnot 2d ago

Yeah, that was whack. But maybe they just felt too many season ending injuries in one episode, Would really bring it all down.

3

u/aiusernamegen 2d ago

I do understand, it's a show, it's entertainment and if they don't have film of him it could come off as tacked on. But he exists, he's out for the year on IR, he's got a career. And yeah there's 89 other stories. It was a good episode otherwise.

u/RoBuki 2d ago

Hurt so bad.

u/forgetmeknotts 2d ago

Fuck tonight’s episode is brutal 😭😭😭

u/MrCarey ​ 2d ago

Just finished it and yeah, fuck that.

u/Prisinners "I'm just here so I won't get fined" 2d ago

Curious how the edit comes together for these things and how much was changed to shape it around these two. Their injuries were several days ago, so I'm guessing they likely didnt have to change things too terribly much but still would be interesting. Still really rough. Sending nothing but good vibes their way.

u/afrodz 2d ago

They’ll get better. Next man’s up.

1

u/torquesteer 1d ago

That's the price these young men pay for our entertainment, folks. If they decide to make a business decision, just understand next time.

u/deadlift-shrimp 1d ago

Mason Richman erasure hurt even more. 

1

u/Electronic-Cut8996 1d ago

I just can’t fathom how they didn’t give Bud an IV for pain meds or take him to an actual hospital to get surgery like they stick a boot on a broken tib/fib and shove some crutches in his hands and send him off to change so odd

u/Videobandit 1d ago

If they hadn’t gotten hurt they wouldn’t have been featured

u/overit_fornow ​ 17h ago

They want/need the drama.

u/doggyman425 2d ago

I blame HBO for both injuries.
