"I thought I ripped Jamie's knob off."

Ted Lasso S3Ep07 The Strings That Bind Us

this is my roman empire

Something about "sport, it's quite the metaphor" something about facial hair in reference to hidden sexuality something about a mustache being a best of both worlds between clean shaven and a beard something something

How I sleep at night knowing that Ted Lasso season 3 had an episode called The Strings That Bind Us, centered around the metaphor of the red string of fate, structured like a romcom, with an opening scene directly stolen from You've Got Mail (x), soundtrack and all; and in this episode Ted complimented a guy's head of hair and said that something frames another guy's face nicely and that out of multiple men, the clean shaven one was his favourite; meanwhile Trent did not mutter one word in the direction of anyone who wasn't Ted, but had multiple conversations with Ted that called back to their scenes in previous seasons, all of this leading up to a chase scene in the last third of the episode, which obviously references the Race for Your Love trope (x)(x). Oh, and when the question "What's with the red string?" was posed to Ted, the camera immediately cut to Trent wearing a bracelet made of red string.

jamie training extra hard to be the best version of himself but not just for him but for the whole team. jamie laughing at his past (like the reality show) instead of getting angry at the teasing. jamie being hesitant to speak up because he doesn’t want to be seen as a prick anymore. jamie suggesting pulling himself back in order to execute the new strategy better. jamie leading and guiding the team to score a goal.

i’m feeling lots of normal thoughts and emotions. i’m fine. i promise i’m fine.

why did NONE of them ask questions until the string was already around their dicks

i love how everyone was struggling with roy's intense training regime but jamie was fine. that was just like any other morning for jamie

You just know that he wanted to put Jamie in the middle of the red string pentagon.

Well, I remember back in the early days of my coaching career, feeling compelled to express my individuality. Since I was a straight fella in Middle America working in sports and I was scared of tattoo needles, the only real option for me to do so was through my facial hair.

something so endearing about isaac and colin wearing the hard hat / hi vis when the team are repairing sams restaurant. like it’s either same brain idiots getting dressed up or one of them had the kit and shared it between them. i love idiot himbo besties !

so my question is why put ted in a startlingly red shirt when his color scheme is usually…pretty blue. it honestly threw me off lol. and then to bookend the episode with rebecca in red? come on sudeikis. give it up, where’s the beautiful ending they deserve??

need a parallel of roy thinking jamie’s dick got ripped off and roy seeing keeley’s poster on jamie’s wall because it’s the same face

thank you ted lasso for making me explain pegging to my parents

They're the same picture
