I’m really questioning the Ruxin storyline. We’ve known for a while that his wife (played nicely by My Name is Earl‘s Nadine Velazquez) is gullible, but who would so easily believe that their husband had a secret dead wife?

I am honestly wondering if the fight will carry over to the next episode.
The League has gotten some strong guest stars in the football world and it was fun to see John Hansen and Adam Caplan of Fantasy Sports Radio on Sirius play themselves dealing with Kevin.
