I’ve only seen two episodes but so far I think it is hilarious. I think the dialog is spot on. A few of the situations are a little over the top, but it’s still funny as hell.

I like the show. I was surprised that fantasy football plays a minor role in the show.

I do not care for sports, but love “The League”, its witty, and funny. The man-sized muppet with a meat cleaver was one of the best things on TV this year.

I haven’t laughed this hard in a while. Dialog is wonderful, I love the bits, love the characters.

Everything just fits so well.
