[QUOTE=Lamb Chop!!!;246921]Wow I'm obviously not a very devoted fan... Half of those I don't remember hearing on the challenges they happened on.[/QUOTE]
Seriously? I remember ever single one of those. LOL.

Haha me too, though, only a few I'd actually consider meaningful/entertaining (in my opinion at least) and those are: CT and Adam, Jenn and Mandi, Tyrie and Davis, Aneesa and Robin, Tyler and Johnny, and maybe Brandon and Ty just because they ended up in the Gulag together.
All the others I don't consider very good "rivalries" at all. Wes and Kenny just seemed so forced and annoying, the Nehemiah-Evan one was both of them just being bitter and then compete in a stupid elimination, Jonna and Jasmine never seemed to dislike each other as far as I remember, just the whole Pat thing, the Sarah-Katelynn one is pretty lame as well as the Camila-Theresa one.
Laurel and Cara Maria is bad and good at the same time. I never really took the whole thing seriously, but I'm sure they both really were into the whole thing and I just felt like Laurel was being a bully.
[QUOTE=TheChallenge;246897]I liked it, my anticipation grows.
By the way, shouldn't the quote from Paula be 74,999.99? 300k grand prize from the island split 4 ways. I still think it is a big stretch pairing those 2 together.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't exactly say they're rivals, and it's never really been Evelyn's fault, but one way or another she's gotten in the way of Paula winning. On the Island, it was Paula's "friends" who chose Evelyn over her, and on FM 2 Evelyn sent her home. But they both have respect for the other's abilities, and I think that in itself gives them an edge over other pairs that despise each other.

As far as I have been told, there is a lot of behind-the-scenes drama with Jonna and Jasmine as well as between Evan and Nehemiah, and they would legitimately be considered rivals.
Jenn and Mandi as a pair of "rivals" is laughable, as is Davis and Tyrie and Camila and Theresa.

I still say that Jenn and Mandi make sense as "enemies" since Jenn punched Mandi in the face and refused to apologize for it. But as "rivals," no not at all.

They make sense if you pay absolutely no attention to the friendship that they have outside of the game.

Well I guess that's what BMP is doing with most of them since the casual fan won't really know who's friends with who. But has Jenn ever apologized for punching her in the face? Because if I recall, she apologized for the name calling but said she deserved to get hit.

But keep in mind 99.9% of the viewers don't know anything about these people outside what they see on the shows, so any off-screen friendships, rivalries, relationships is irrelevant unless they carry over to the shows....

99.9%? Not even close.
Don't forget some of these people have thousands of followers on Twitter, the maximum number of friends allowed on Facebook, and the occasional crazy who even goes as far as to pretend they are that person. Some people have even gone as far as to privatize their Facebook page because "fans" were commenting on every single one of their statuses.

Jenn didn't advertise her private conversations by buying a full page ad in the NY Times.
Smart people pay attention to molds13. Others just don't hear the laughter...

In all fairness almost all of the contestants have a "sort of" friendship outside of the game....even Tonya and Veronica get along outside of the game.

I've never heard anything about Jonna and Jasmine, that's why my opinion is what it is. I have heard there was more depth to the Nehemiah/Evan situation though, but for some reason it still doesn't seem like a big rivalry to me.
And the Jenn/Mandi situation I based off of what happened on FM2 even though I knew they were friendly and civil. I can understand the people being paired because of previous fights/arguments/feuds because at some point or another, the pairs were against each other and could have caused a physical altercation.
That's just my opinion as to how rivalries go. Sometimes they're friendly, sometimes they're aggressive, and sometimes they're just simple with some back-story.

Tonya says, "What? No, we don't."

Great find, thanks for posting.
[QUOTE=MF41590;247453]So it looks like CT makes Wes his *****.[/QUOTE]
Doesn't look too heated to me, just CT trying to knock Wes off his pedestal using his size but they both seem relatively calm.
-Does anybody know who Jenn's fighting with in the trailer? I can't really make out who it is because it fades away right as they show her face...
-CT (blue) completely levels either Johnny or Tyler (black) at one point.
-Jasmine does not seem ot be having a great time and somebody gets under her skin
-No Jonna in the trailer (as far as I could see), which makes me sad
-Looks like some really good drama, within teams and amongst others

I saw Jonna once so far and I'm 20 seconds in, and once I'm done transcribing/picture capping I will post :D
We saw almost everyone's team colors too:
Kenny/Wes (yellow)
Evan/Nehemiah (green)
Johnny/Tyler (black or dark blue)
CT/Adam (blue)
Leroy/Adam R (red)
Katelynne/Sarah (gray)
Jenn/Mandi (yellow)
Robin/Aneesa (red)
Camila/Theresa (green)
Ev/Paula (black or dark blue)
The only ones I didn't see were Jonna/Jasmine, Ty/Brandon, Tyrie/Davis, and Laurel/Cara

I think it's Cara Maria.

Thanks for doing this for those of us still working. Can't wait to see the latest trailer!
The new trailer was great. I think 1:37 is definitely an elimination round but I can't figure out who the second team is.
I think it's actually Kenny/Wes vs Tyrie/Davis.

I think it would be safer to say that it is Kenny/Wes vs. CT/Adam
