    I think it was one of those things where the writers have been hearing how people wanted to see an episode or at least much more of Rafi and Randy...and they said, "Ok, you want it...you got it." Turns out, it wasn't good and now everyone can shut up about it.

    I love watching the league! I picked it up last year and knocked out 3 seasons. Didnt watch season 4 until 2 weeks ago. It goes by so quick. I am trying to stay current on 5, but I forgot about it last night! :( Wish they'd make one for basketball!

    Yeah the last one reminded me how much better the show is with Ralfi. I think it is now way behind Always Sunny.

    You guys are crazy. That was one of the funniest episodes of anything I've ever watched. Sunny's new season has been great except the last episode.

    It did feel like a backdoor pilot, wouldn't be surprised if they are trying to get traction on a limited series.

    Been a fan since the S1 and the premiere episode.
    I felt last season was a little weak and the beginning of the decline.
    No doubt in my mind this season that the show has jumped the shark. Not even close to as consistently funny as it was in prior seasons.

    If it were a stock I'd be kicking myself for not selling last season.

    I don't want the show regularly but caught this last one and thought it was hilarious. Usually, it is kind of funny but the actual characters aren't always that funny to me.

    Rafi and Dirty Randy episode was brilliant. I enjoyed the break from the LEAGUE.

    Some of the character's story lines are stale.

    IASIP is killing the League this year. I'm just not laughing as much, need more about ****ing the FANTASY LEAGUE not the lame story lines about life or whatever.

    I thought it was pretty funny, the last episode. The Taco truck stuff cracked me up.

    I know I've said it before but hot damn Katie Aselton is freaking hot!

    The show is on the decline because the plots are becoming more outlandish and unrealistic. It was funnier in the first couple seasons when there was more sports humor and the plots were more grounded.

    The League is good but not nearly as funny as some people claim, imo.

    I really liked the Dirty Randy and Rafi episode. Disturbing at times, but probably the funniest League episode yet. I searched but couldn't find an answer... did they kill off Rafi for good?

    I thought the last episode was solid and good one.
