I was trying to edit the post and messed it all up.

My original post was that I see that someone hits the motherload. I am saying I hope it is Parker or the Hoffmans and not Dakota Fred.

The show based on the how they edit it has Dakota Fred rubbing me the wrong way. Fred told the producer that the show makes him look like someone who is only out for himself but he is really a nice guy. My idea of a nice guy would have lent parker the electrical panel. However he did claim it was his "partner" who wanted $10k for the panel (or was it Fred?)

The Hoffmans seem to make all kinds of mistakes and bad decisions, and Parker is impulsive, but he is only 17!

Still I hope it is either of them, but at the same time if it is Fred, well good for him, I wish it where me! Maybe the next time on the river I will hit a pocket for a hundred ounces!

I think fred should magiver a bearing sea set up in that hole. 6" + hot water = 8 hour dredging. I just keep waiting for the divider between his hole and that creek to guve way...praying it dont happen!

Like the Bering sea guy who shot himself,
if anything happened to a cast member this season,
we would already Know. they can keep some things under wraps,
but not death. obits need to be published.

of course his equipment floating away could be interesting :coffee2:

Here is to hoping tonight's big show goes easy on the drama, and heavy on the gold! I swear, if I see one more manufactured mechanical breakdown, or hear more whining over nothing, gonna lose it!

I don't get it, the show I want to see, e.g. "The motherload", is not on until tomorrow AFTERNOON. Tonight we learn the end of year tally's and other crap in a two hour live special. The last episode must be horrible if they are burying it on a Saturday afternoon.

Not impressed with the suspected cokehead Todd but cant say I was surprised, evidently he's been on it awhile.

Looks like Parker is going to be on a great adventure:icon_thumleft:

Really interested in seeing what Fred does on his new claim looks really exciting.

Could care less about watching twich face again. If I was Dave I'd dump Todd.

Grrr. Most annoying complete fake out on the mother lode. But it was a better two hours than I expected and overall a fun season to watch.
