I don't like Johnny and Frank but they have won two missions, have performed very well in the other missions and they haven´t Dq in any misión, what else can they do to deserve to be there.?
One thing about Aneesa/Diem. I was kinda hoping that Aneesa's frustration with Her is the fact that she's a Non-castmember but I was disappointed. But nevertheless I was with Aneesa about Diem. It seemed more Like Diem was telling Aneesa what to do and she didn't like that. Aneesa is not obligated to run or do anything with Diem. But in the end there does need to be some more understanding and communication.
[QUOTE=SourWolf;362062]Frank is all those things as well. He's the last person who should being talking about other people being obnoxious and ****-stirrers. His entire schtick on the Challenges and on twitter is acting as obnoxious and argumentative as possible to purposely push people's buttons. He needs to stop throwing so much shade at others to cover up the fact that these are all the same reasons people don't like him.[/QUOTE] Agree, specially when he said that she brought non challenge stuff to the challenge, I was like really frank? you brought nany's sister on the past challenge.

She should have never called Aneesa out in front of other people, it was embarrassing for Aneesa to be treated that way. I just listened to Frank's afterbuzz interview and he said that Aneesa wanted to do half running and half weight lifting and Diem only wanted to do the running. That was part of the problem.

Because if not pls go and watch Mark drag Aneesa along and give up in the end because he knew he never was going to win with her.. So he held her hand all the way to the finish line..Diem has watched duel 2 i can tell ya that and she doesnt want history to repeat itself. So she has every right to ask/demand/beg Aneesa to run and prepare for the final because there was a big chance that they were going to make it. But i respect Diem for admitting that she maybe could have done it in another way [QUOTE]Was I annoying to Aneesa about running? Heck yeah I was. [I]Rivals 2[/I] is a team challenge so I wanted us to do as much together as possible. Paula and Emily worked out together every day, and sometimes twice a day. They were the girl team to beat so I thought we should be training harder than they were. I would get frustrated because I wasn't sure if Aneesa had the same first place ambitions as I had. I wanted to win and felt the only way to get to first place was to train harder than anyone else. My approach to motivating Aneesa however, needed work![/QUOTE] [url=http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20727438,00.html]Diem Brown Blogs: Dealing with Mood Swings After Chemo - MTV, Celebrity Blog, Health, Diem Brown : People.com[/url]

Without proper and continuous preparation, as a pair Aneesa and Diem will likely face a continuously training Emily and Paula at some point where conditioning will matter. Just how does Aneesa expect to win?
It doesn't matter how much Aneesa trains while on the Challenge. If Aneesa & Diem make it to the Final, they are a lock for 3rd place. You can't go from being the worst runner there to being able to win a Final in a span of 4-5 weeks. Their best bet is to make the Final Challenge and get 3rd place. The only thing you can really do is slightly improve and maintain the training you did beforehand. If Aneesa didn't put in the work before getting there, Diem should only expect 3rd place.

[QUOTE=Nightwolf;362117]Assuming It's not Johnny's 3 female teams in the finals and not Cara Maria/Cooke or Jonna/Nany[/QUOTE] I am not assuming anything. Of the 5 teams remaining, they would without a doubt be the worst in a Final because of Aneesa. 3rd place is their best case scenario at this point in time.
[QUOTE=JEKFAN;362044][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB_HgBEqp_4]MTV's Challenge Rivals II S:1 | Crossing Jordan E:8 | AfterBuzz TV AfterShow - YouTube[/url] Recap of the episode. Frank explains why he dislikes Jemmye.[/QUOTE] Listened to the whole thing, and Frank doesn't really go into specifics about why he hates Jemmye. Only says that she's done/said things that have affected his life outside of the challenges. Personally, if you bring something like that up and make such an accusation, I'd really like to hear the details so that I can judge for myself. [QUOTE=skimthrough;362071]Emily had hardly been given screen time in the edit, aside from winning challenges, until this episode. When have you seen her do this other than last night during Frank's obnoxious meltdown?[/QUOTE] It's also in the afterbuzz interview and Jordan says that he Emily, and Frank were close friends. You wouldn't know it based on the MTV edit, but apparently they were. Frank said that for the next couple of weeks that the show was going on that Emily had to play mediator between the two and that it was tough on her. A couple of other tidbits from the afterbuzz: - There was some type of wrestling night in the house? Leroy and Marlon weren't the only ones rolling around on the floor as it would seem. Maybe I misheard, but I think Frank said it started out between him and Emily and then it escalated from there. - Jordan was asked about Jonna and he confirmed that they're not in a relationship, although he does admit that they do still do stuff (that's assuming when they see each other?) To put it into context, he was asked, so you no longer kiss, hook-up etc? To which he answered, well, no I didn't say that. Can't think of anything else that was said that was particular interesting.
This is very mean, but Jonna crying made me laugh a little. Not gonna lie, her and Nany looked beautiful in their interviews though.
Congrats to Diem and Aneesa for winning!
Diem's happy dance: cannot unsee.
[QUOTE=CherryPie;362196]This is [B]very mean[/B], but Jonna crying made me laugh a little. Not gonna lie, her and Nany looked beautiful in their interviews though.[/QUOTE] Maybe a little bit, but let's be honest her rather pathetic showing was highly amusing... :highly_amused:
[QUOTE=wutzrenzi;361783]I love how Knight puts all the blame on Preston as if he doesn't equally suck.[/QUOTE] Every **** episode. I understood it when Theresa complained about Jazzy, but Preston isn't really holding the team back, Knight's just as bad as him. [QUOTE=TDMEL52;361791]so marlon vs Leroy so its basically the same people facing off against one another. Oh and Frank Jordan is walking away. let it go.[/QUOTE] LOL at "the same people" Leroy > Marlon any day of the week
Diem didn't wear her wig in this episode, and she looks absolutely amazing.

If They make it to the end Diem better be happy with 3rd place because that's all she's going to get. Aneesa does not have to do anything she doesn't want to do and that includes what Diem wants her to do.

[QUOTE=V1man;362332]To me, that is the classic definition of a loser, but then I've never had a high opinion of Aneesa.[/QUOTE] In all honesty, I doubt Diem paired with anyone on this cast that's not Paula/Emily would be able to beat Paula/Emily. Let alone ANY girl pairings you could make on this cast
[QUOTE=Nightwolf;362333]In all honesty, I doubt Diem paired with anyone on this cast that's not Paula/Emily would be able to beat Paula/Emily. Let alone ANY girl pairings you could make on this cast[/QUOTE] Any response from me would be a spoiler, so just :semi-twins:
[QUOTE=V1man;362332]To me, that is the classic definition of a loser, but then I've never had a high opinion of Aneesa.[/QUOTE] Because she isn't trying? Some people are runners, some aren't. Aneesa isn't a runner lol. She can pick it up in places where Diem lacks skill. With that being said she should've learned from the duel 2.

With that being said she should've learned from the duel 2.[/QUOTE] It has nothing to do with running. It has everything to do with attitude. Maybe Aneesa just needed a pole in the exercise room. (Production, take a note, that's a good idea for every cast.) A comment above is entirely accurate, though. Thailand is the wrong place to begin training. I recall my old HS football coach's admonition: The seven Ps. "Proper Prior Preparation Prevents ****-poor Performance" And in that light, I wonder if, like Big Brother, it would be interesting to allow the cast to practice for some events. For example, I'd love to see video of Nana and Jonna practicing with the dog collar shocking device. That would probably make for a great outtake.)

They do say that stripping is very good exercise! I don't think her attitude is bad at all. Diem is very intense when it comes to running. I don't blame her, I would be the same way. That's part of the game. Teamwork is tested. Weight training is important as well. The same advice can be given to Diem regarding weights.
They had a pole in the house in Argentina but Aneesa was long gone by then
[QUOTE=V1man;362332]To me, that is the classic definition of a loser, but then I've never had a high opinion of Aneesa.[/QUOTE] So you're calling Anessa a loser based off of someone elses interpretation of the situation?
I prefer Diem to Aneesa by a long shot but I don't think Diem was being fair in that situation. On the show and then on after buzz Frank said that Aneesa has a weightlifting regimen that she stuck with the entire season...so it's not as if she just sat on her *** all day and did nothing. They also said that while Aneesa didn't do much running, Diem didn't really make an effort to lift weights with her either. It just sounds like it was Diem's way or the highway. Now Diem's way may have been RIGHT since the final is almost all endurance, but I disagree with the implication that Aneesa wasn't doing anything to keep herself active and in the kind of shape she thought she had to be in.
I like how we saw Aneesa running in the background of Frank and Jordan's fight
[QUOTE=Challenge 17;362351]I like how we saw Aneesa running in the background of Frank and Jordan's fight[/QUOTE] That was running? roflamo, seriously!!!
[QUOTE=Cashfl0w;362348]So you're calling Anessa a loser based off of someone elses interpretation of the situation?[/QUOTE] Cashf10w, and just whose interpretation would that be? You're new. I get it.
[QUOTE=V1man;362353]That was running? roflamo, seriously!!![/QUOTE] ****, what's your problem with Aneesa? Spill!
