Wow another show tonight full of Tod Hoffman's perennial screw ups. Man, that dude is dumber than a sack of hammers *L*. If it were not for some of the more capable folks around him, his operations would all be messes.
The Ice diving show was pretty funny tonight too. One good team and the rest hopeless cases. Good for a lot of laughs though.....Mel

Good for a lot of laughs though.....Mel Todd is a bonehead, if not for Dave he would never make it. As for Parker, he would be a lost if Tony and grampa were not his backers. The only one with a brain is Fred. None of this whining about broken parts. The man knows how fix repair and improvise to keep working. I would work for him in a heart beat. Mel you should check out the Alaskan Gold Diggers show on Animal planet. A mother and her 5 daughters mining in designer outfits.Good for a few laughs. Yukon gold is the most realistic of all the shows.

Watched the show last night,looks like Parker payed fatboy off on the dozer... Looks like the Glory hole hit some huge nuggets,but to dangerous to mine anymore(sad)! Hoffman has a new claim,but can he play catch up..Those diamonds they found,he will find out that its very expencive to mine with the gold....Yes Hoffman is a bonehead,wrecks equipment and spends money he doesn't have.... I'm still for the underdog "Parker"...We were all full of piss and vinegar at that age,can't say you weren't...LMAO!!!

I'm still for the underdog "Parker"...We were all full of piss and vinegar at that age,can't say you weren't...LMAO!!! As previously stated by another, Parker is a hard working young man. Tony Beets as mentor will whip him into shape. No doubt he will make family proud. He sees no other option. I doubt Todd actually beats up the equipment. The issues are almost all hydraulic related and the spilling of fluids looks cool on TV. No doubt that is scripted with a loosened fitting, fixed in ten seconds, but the story still is told. I had a soccer family whose uncle was (supposed to be) close friends with Todd. The rumor thru that chain of discussion was todd kept his rewards minimalized so as to keep unwanted visitors from the airport... The story told thru my friend was they got ten times the gold publicized. Publicly they make enough to 'break even' but the reality is very different. In Oregon Dave and Todd are exposed to bad characters, way more so than the others. Maybe Todd's bumbling is the story line and the self deprecating humor goes well for him. I hope so anyway. If not he's just a douchebag wannabe miner.

Yes Scott,the TV world is how "they" want us to see the reality.... I guess all in all they would do the good cop,bad cop on everybody that does a reality show-its all about the ratings and money...... Knew the Hoffmans were pretty well off,when I seen he lived in a gated property in Sandy....

I know! I was watching and saying, please offer those up for sale! They were beautiful and they hated them for clogging the screens.
