[QUOTE=kvm1977;386664]I just think it is funny that anyone though Dustin was the best there
He wouldn't have made by top 8[/QUOTE]
The highest you could possibly have Dustin is #7. In alphabetical order people who are no doubt ahead of Dustin:
CT
Frank
Johnny Bananas
Jordan
Leroy
Zach
Then after that you have some people that you could argue for or against being ahead of Dustin.
Dustin has been on two seasons and the only time he "proved" himself was in the oil wrestling against Zach imo. Exes wasn't his fault but he didn't step up and let Alton take the reins on BOTS. I think he has high potential but you can't rank him high on that. Plus, knowing how early he left this game knocks him down a peg or two.

Lol exes was all his fault, He was really stupid on that one.

I agree with those all, except for Zach/Leroy. All of Zach's missions wins benefited him for his size (Rivals 2 wins) or because of other circumstances (one was thrown). Leroy has shown he can climb up a rope pretty quickly and is someone you don't wanna see in anything physical, but he's very poor in anything mental like a puzzle and swimming (something essential in the Challenge). I'd put him around 5th best.

I'd take Zach or Leroy in a second over Dustin. It isn't even close IMO
Hell, I thought Chet was better during "Seasons" than Dustin was
I'd probably also take Brandon. I really think Leroy and Zach aren't given enough credit but people give Dustin credit he doesn't deserve because they like him.
Dustin isn't finishing a puzzle either

I didn't, at all.
It's definitely close since guys with Brandon, Dustin, Cohutta haven't done as much to go off of though. That's VERY illogical. People love Leroy, it's simply calling it as it is. In give puzzles to Dustin over Leroy though.
Simply put, Zach/Leroy have shown that they are good at stuff that benefits their size.

And Dustin hasn't even shown that
Dustin nor Leroy are finishing a puzzle--they might as well sit there and rest until time expires and they can move on

Did well on the 2 Exes missions, wrestled Zach to a time limit, beasted his elimination against Robb, destroyed in Sling Shot, on top of doing well on just about every mission. Leroy's screwed up on a few missions, not to mention his Rivals 2 eliminations...

I don't agree--at all with your assessment. I think you like Dustin as a person and are creating things that aren't there. Beating Robb is far from impressive. Leroy beating Wes is 1000x better

I actually would say your deluding yourself if you believe Leroy has proven more than Dustin. Did I fabricate anything in my assessment of his abilities?
Not only did he beat him, multiple cast members have said Dustin was amazing in that elimination round. That last statement is just telling in of itself. Agree to disagree.

Yes, you did. I completely disagree that he did well on every mission during seasons. I think Chet performed better
Provide some quotes. The cast says all types of ridiculous things. If it came from Nany or anyone else that's friends with him it has no value
Let's watch him go home early this year--as I thought would be the case even when it was Vets vs. Rookies. He has no political game, he's not a good athlete and he's not intelligent. He offers very little

Zach himself even said Dustin was killing it in a confessional-- someone he dislikes.
And? Many good competitors go home early, look at Camila. He's definitely a great athlete. The only reason we even see Leroy last as long as he does is everyone loves him and people fear going against him in anything physical.

Calling him a "great athlete" is an insult to "great athletes"
People "fear" Leroy--right--no one fears Dustin

Who fears Leroy?
I like both of them as contestants but they've both been overvalued at times in my opinion.

Who doesn't? No one wants to go H2H against Leroy--maybe CT...maybe Zach
Dustin sure as hell wouldn't
[QUOTE=kvm1977;386688]And, again, no one fears Dustin--in anything[/QUOTE]
And again, it's all to due with his size. I'll just end it here, since this is going nowhere.

Huh? Who doesn't? As far as I can remember nobody has worried that much about going up against him. It sounds like you're just saying what you think would happen, not what has actually happened.

Who has called him in? Oh, that's right--he's never had the chance to compete as an individual
Let's see how often he gets sent in this year...hmmm
I've been told that CT MIGHT have not made the final.
Also, Leroy did really good this challenge!
And LaToya beat an alumni in a elimination. My guess would be Aneesa.
I really wish KellyAnne would get her ish together and do another challenge!
I really wanna see how she would interact with these newer kids, especially the girls!
I believe she would be a threat in a individual challenge and would've seen some eliminations!

I heard for a person that I really trust, not putting names out there.
But Aneesa was the 8th girl out and Latoya didn't make it to the 8th mission.
