Cant believe nobody posted on here about capt phil's death
RIP man, I watched this alot when it first came out. spent many doped out nights noddin, or stoned off those piff blunts, watchin this when it was the only thing on and i always felt the same way about the bigger boats thats all state of the art and shit, like i didnt wanna root for them cuz they had the advantage anyways. but I stopped watchin a while, just caught it here and there until recently when i heard about wat happened and I really felt bad for the dude yo, and for his family. I am the last person to get attached to a character on TV or a 'reality' show but i dont feel like those guys are like that at all, they are just bein themself, real life shit, you dont seen them on the red carpet using their fame to get into clubs and shit, you never hear about them, they are just themselfs and when they aint on TV they at home livin their regular ass life. I feel like they are real regular ppl that you could care about becuz you aint seeing a bunch of fake shit, you kno....
So it was real sad to me when captain phil died and one of the reasons was my dad....He dont watch alot of TV. he never gets involved in a tv show, he is a real old school type of guy. hes the old 'strong and silent' type i guess u could say. so he think most of that tv shit is silly and all that. and he always really disapproved without sayin nothin but i could just tell how much he looked down on 'reality tv' and how crude and just in general raunchy tv is these days, and would think somebody who got involved with a show or the characters, that they must be pretty foolish.
but when he started watchin this show he got mad into it, and when capt. phil died he was really sad. I think alot of people was. Becuz the kind of folks who could really respect and relate to him was old-timer, regular-ass workin guys. And their respect dont come cheap, u kno, so it really meant something becuz even tho it was on TV, becuz the guy was so real and seemed like somebody you could know IRL, it seemed much deeper. You could tell he was a really good guy, and I aint even gonna lie it was the weirdest thing but when i was watchin the episode where he passed i was even gettin a lil choked up myself. Seein all those men cry you know.
I jus came in here to see wat BL thought about the show and iwas suprised aint nobody post in here since that happened so i guess im just revivin the thread and givin a RIP.
