    I look for another appeal or more lawsuits. I stopped watching after the 2nd season because they were getting too stupid.

    I gave up watching their show a long time ago. It became "American Knuckleheads." The Three Stooges build motorcycles.

    20% of "nothing " is still nothing.

    How could SR. get such an appraisal just look at the new building!

    You gotta dig into the past stuff, the original steel business was run like that also, in the red on books and to get out of some 20mill fine or something like that for backing out of a job, SR pawned the biz onto JR, who then got upset and didn't want it anymore, who they then pawned it off on Danny.


    Why during the first of the show, there was the bad blood between SR and Danny, till Mikey fixed it I think they said on one show, then Danny did the new big world head quarters for OCC but then they had yet another falling out. Im betting cause Danny got screwed on that deal too.


    By reading it all, SR would be foolish to do anything, but to see what JR does. If he pushes harder, JR could say liquidate the place, SR can then buy his 20% then but it will cost allot and SR could end up in jail, how the biz on paper is worth 0 but he is worth million.

    Why they rolled the steel biz over through family in the first place.
    But SR lost his mind and sued JR when he done forget, JR knows his scam.
    SR should have just giving him a fair price to beging with. Now he opens the books for the law and I bet the IRS to crawl up his butt a little deeper.


    As I bet they pounder that too, OCC being worth 0???

    Watching a father and son scream at each other on TV is entertaining - for about 15 minutes. It ain't worth 4 or 5 seasons of shows.

    At least from what I've seen (and it's been a while), JR has some self-respect and truly wants to put out good work, while SR seems to just be interested in $$$. Plus, he's an a**hat.......

    I hate to say but it might all go away and Sr will be without anything. He has built a couple of houses,divorced what 3 to 4 times. A large collection of choppers that were built in the 60'- and to date new style bikes and a big muscle car collection.

    OCC would be nothing today without the hard work Jr put in the beginning.
    He got a bum rap,kudos for him starting out on his own.
    I enjoyed the episodes showing him starting up his own shop.

    Sr.got too big too fast--and that's gonna bite him in the a$$
    I stopped watching the show since the arguing and yelling got old real quick.

    It always seems to me Sr is always biting the hand that feeds him. Didn't he have a heart attack?

    I haven't watched this mess for many years, but I always assumed it was all just staged, and none of the ridiculous arguing and hateful tantrums were real. Guess I was wrong. :slap: What a train wreck!

    I could go on for hours about this...

    I used to watch the show when it first came out. It was entertaining and I like to see custom stuff being fabricated. I too figured most of the fights were staged for ratings and publicity.

    Now it's a Soap opera.

    Fame and fortune have caused the lot of them to leave the realm of reality.

    I like Mikey the best, but honestly think if I knew him in person would think he was a slacker and needed to get on with his life.

    Jr. always came across as sort of a smart a## punk to me. Now he's off on his own and seems to be trying to make something of himself. We'll see.

    Sr. was actually my favorite "character" because he reminded me of my dad in some ways, and being a father myself, realize that sometimes your kids think they know everything and really don't have a clue.
    Unfortunately I think the money/fame has gone to his head. Now he's just a jerk because it's hurt his pride.

    What once was entertaining is now just sad.

    I think Sr. has done his sons a disservice by not being a good father to them and teaching them how to be men. Mikey has no ambition (realistically) and Jr. has ambition, but it seems to stem from being in his fathers shadow.

    A real life soap opera played out on TV.

    Just sad.

    Years ago, I had several people tell me that this was a great show and I should watch it. I watched 2 shows. They should seal up the building with that family in it.
