Jeff Daly/HBO
We really do need to appreciate the last five years.We do.
Its been a great five-year story.
A big part of that is Spencers story.
Its like watching a football game, only not on the football field anymore.
And now he owns a team!
Pretty wild five-year jump from being broke to owning a team!It has been.
I thought we were going after the NCAA.
But, cmon, guys!
What was your reaction when you saw that?
[Laughs] I loved it!
I laughed out loud; I thought it was fabulous and I hope he got to finish the book.
So does that mean he now knows that hes on a TV show?
Did you just break theBallersuniverse?I know!
I think I might have broke the fifth-dimension or something.
Its got The Rock!
Whats not to love?
Thats what I try telling them.Its an interesting story thats different from much of whats on television.
The issues theyve tackled onBallersare real.
Remember the opening season, the guy who gets killed in the car crash?
Then, remember when Vern (Donovan W. Carter) blew out his knee playing paintball?
In this latest season, Spencer and the kid with the gun, Kisan (Kris D. Lofton).
And then this notion of how are these young men going to build sustainable futures?
So what are your hopes for the finale?
Is there anything youre hoping to get resolution on?
Im very interested in what happens to Charles.
Vern is going to be a gamer.
Of course, Ricky is going to use his mouth!
Ricky is now set on his path, he looks like hes carved out a winning place.
Hes always going to be a little crosswise with everyone, because thats who Ricky is.
Its Spencer I worry about the most.
He still chews those pain pills, and he has to have a fight.
Its part of his character.
He fights best when he fights on behalf of others thats Spencer all the way through this.
Theyre different fights; sometimes he picks good fights and sometimes he doesnt, but thats in Spencers character.
What does that mean now that hes rich and powerful and owns his own team?
How would you like your chances against him?
[Laughs] I would welcome him to the race.
I know he would fight for the principles that he believes in hes my kind of guy!
His likability scores would be off the charts.Who doesnt like The Rock?
And I have to say, who doesnt love The Rocks wardrobe choices dont they just knock you out?
Those vests and the pink shirts…Oh man, it is eye candy.
Well, senator, enjoy those suits one last time on Sunday.I will.
And when youre ready to start talking aboutUnbelievable, give me a call!
