[QUOTE=jace89;271631]CT choked again. LOL, this is like the 5th time he had a sure win and great chance at winning.......and yet he lost. How do you explain how ct losses like this? Ct should have trucked them both at the start so adam can get a lead. Ct always beats himself. Lets be honest here, wes is the only thing that made cara interesting this season.[/QUOTE] I agree CT choked big time. I mean all he did was place his balls first out of anyone, ran through Tyler 3 times, laid Tyler and Johnny the **** out, and almost carried Adam for that final ball CT crashed and burned. If he didn't choke as bad he would have had the mindset of knocking Tyler out cold so Adam would have the time to misplace the balls as many times as he wanted to
I liked the part when CT was trying to get Adam to get up by giving him a wedgie ****. I dont think it was helping.
I thought it was pretty cool that CT helped out Adam albeit giving him a massive wedgie, after what he said at the bar of picking him up when Adam falls. He was true to his word.
Cara Maria said on her Twitter: Inside info: Wes was screaming in Adam's face saying he DQed and already lost. Adam let go thinking it was over... when it wasn't. #Rivals [url=http://twitter.com/#!/MissCaraMaria/status/104097369959833600]Twitter[/url] ....Wow. I could see Wes doing that. :(

It's fair game and stupid on Adam's part for not playing to TJ's horn.

Wes yelling at Adam that he was dq'ed like Cara said probably didn't matter too much. I doubt Adam would just believe him anyway if CT was dragging him up the hill still, I am not sure that made a huge difference. Adam was out of gas anyway, and CT was dragging him still so I am sure he said not to listen to him. Just shows how much Wes fears CT, he will do anything he can to avoid him and make sure he goes home. Tyler even confirmed that on the podcast how Wes masterminded the whole thing to get Johnny/Tyler in. I guess Kenny, Wes and the mob on the sidelines were yelling/complaining for a dq the whole time too. You are allowed to be physical, how pitiful can you be? They all act like they don't fear CT off the show in interviews/twitter yet their desperation to get rid of him says otherwise. They all act tough and like they fear no one after the fact when they know how it turns out. They all try so hard to demonize him for everything he does. His comment at the start of the episode about how if he raises his voice they all get pitchforks and chase him was hilarious.
Just watched it online, great episode man, epic jungle.. Good for Cara Maria that she went into the room and shut up Wes, and even though I don't like them much on this season I did feel bad for Tyler/Jenn getting sick. And omg what a final man, is BMP just trying to kill people?
It brings tears to my eyes when I re-watched the Jungle. It's so sweet to see how much CT tried to help, support and want to be friends again with Adam. It's also funny at the beginning when Adam/Tyler made mistakes and CT's "chooo chooo". I think Ct and Adam lost this Jungle actually brought them together (more than if they win), because then Adam can see how much CT has changed.

They won 2 challenges and 1 jungle against 1 of the toughest pairs there, and then ALMOST won the final jungle. If there is a future team challenge CT will win for sure, unless it is a ruins 2 :p
They took the loss like a good team is supposed to take a loss. No *****ing or *******. And leaving with dignity.
Lol, the Jungle was pretty much rigged for CT and Adam to win and they couldn't haha
[QUOTE=SPK713;271764]Lol, the Jungle was pretty much rigged for CT and Adam to win and they couldn't haha[/QUOTE] Please. If either John or Tyler decided they wanted to lay Adam out and put him out of commission for most of the game it could have been done. Unlike CT, they chose not to go out of their way to lay somebody out.

Tyler and Johnny aren't fast and they're not nearly as strong as CT. I wouldn't be surprised if CT/Adam's challenge was rigged and their rope was hitting the water purposely just for them to lose and go into a Jungle, that specific Jungle. CT's a monster and that Jungle was built for one. Love conspiracy theories :)
Why do they make the finals so insane and intense? Honestly, I don't think they should make the final so grueling, it could be very dangerous. I just think they should take it down a notch.

CT only layed them out to bide time for Adam and they still lost. It was clear Adam cost them that jungle with the combination of his mental errors and running out of gas. If this was the duel 3, and that was the jungle, I would put him above anyone head to head. But it works better with 4, more traffic, more hit possibilities.

I feel bad for CT. If ever there was a challenge he deserved to win, it was this one. At least he gave Tyler the body slams that he deserved. What a stupid mistake by Adam, I was not sorry to see him lose so pathetically. I cannot believe that I ever liked Wes. He really tries so hard to make himself look stupid. This finale looks awesome & I am loving the complete suckage from Jenn & Mandi. May they lose pitifully. I hope Leroy & Mike are somehow able to get it together & win because I do not want to see any of those 4 idiots collect $50k.

CT said on twitter you couldn't just chill in the middle you had to keep moving so he couldn't have just hit Tyler a few times in a row in the middle while Adam put the winning ball in. Just as FYI people were wondering earlier in thread. Just when you think CT has shown how big a beast he is, he does something like that double tackle to Johnny/Tyler to prove he is a bigger beast than we thought. The good thing about him, even when he loses (duel1, Rivals) he has made it memorable.

[QUOTE=kristalie;271792]I think sadly, they'll only realize this and make them easier after someone gets hurt, more than just dehydration. :/[/QUOTE] Why would they care about someone getting hurt? Call me a cynic, but I've not heard many cast members talking about a warm and fuzzy BMP caring about cast welfare.
[QUOTE=kristalie;271792]I think sadly, they'll only realize this and make them easier after someone gets hurt, more than just dehydration. :/[/QUOTE] I don't know about that... I don't think Big E was just dehydrated, right? And they still continue to make them last all day long and to provide them with little food.
Anyone else notice the editing for the last couple of episodes? I really like it. It has been different than the norm. Like some said a little more Real World like. A little more artsy. When Adam and Tyler were on the ground struggling to get up I was actually getting chills. Someone said it reminded them of Rocky and when Apollo and Balboa were struggling to their feet. The way they edited that made things feel pretty epic. This is what I love to see in a challenge. The arguments and fights can be entertaining at times but at the end of the day it's all about the crazy competition that pushes people. I wish all the challenges could be as in your face and directly competitive. That is the stuff that keep me coming back every season to see who comes out on top. Its really like a sport to me.

My favorite episodes were definitely the last 3 episodes, even though I'm devastated by the outcome of the last 2 jungles. I think I first noticed it during episode 8: when they found out they were going to Buenos Aires and everyone was dancing around, an when they're all going crazy in the bedroom and throwing stuff.
[QUOTE=Gdsimmons;271554]I know. I feel like they wouldve aced the finals. But whatever. It is what it is Lol. I was literally standing on my couch jumping up and down like a fool hoping that Adam would finish first. That entire commercial I was on my knees like crazy. lol SB: What is Tyler thinking? I mean I give him an A for his heart but if a freaking medical professional tells me not to go on, Im not gonna do it. Especially if I know this final is gonna be super EPIC. I guess we'll see how it plays out next week[/QUOTE] His stomach was a little upset big deal. They probably just played it up for drama. And Jenn, it didn't matter if you were sick. You would have still sucked just as bad.
Can anybody please tell me about Ct and Adam's conversation after they lost? I tried but couldn't make it out what they said. I heard Ct said "Say something Adam" and that's it Thanks a lot
I'm no longer a fan of Jenn's after seeing her behavior this season. I still think she's a decent competitor though. She has a lot of heart and seems to give 100%. She's not on the level of Evelyn or Laurel, but she's above average imo. She never had a chance of winning with Mandi as her partner though. Mandi is kind of pitiful when it comes to most of these challenges (although I'm sure she run & has stamina-- she proved that in FM2). I think a bout of food poisoning would take a lot of of anyone. Tyler & Jenn have to be feeling pretty weak at this point. I don't really like either of them, but I have to give them props for sucking it up and giving it their all.

That's all I remember-- but I felt bad for Adam. I know he was crushed b/c he lost it for both of them. And CT handled it really well. He didn't blame Adam and I thought he took the loss graciously.
[QUOTE=V1man;271807]Why would they care about someone getting hurt? Call me a cynic, but I've not heard many cast members talking about a warm and fuzzy BMP caring about cast welfare.[/QUOTE] I meant if someone got so severely hurt that it was getting bad media attention.

Adam said "Well it was only a matter of time before I dragged you down" CT said you didn't drag me down, don't say that. Adam responded saying "CT, i cost us that game, you know it and I know it" CT than defended him again in the interview where people really say how they feel not in the moment. CT showed what a good teammate he was and even brought up being friends as they were walking away at the end. Love those two!! I love how regardless of who won last men's jungle, it was every man for himself.. Yet they all were so happy and celebrating CT was gone haha. Just shows how much the mob feared him this challenge in the final. Wes looked like he just won the lottery.
