[QUOTE=JEKFAN;416269]So happy Cohutta won:) But Preston def earned my respect. He did the best on this season than he has done in others. [/QUOTE]
Let's be fair though. He's been on a team with Knight on the other two so the bar was set pretty low.
[QUOTE=Youssarian;416271]She was basically already going in. Why rock the boat and potentially make people mad? Aneesa knows the game and she's known CT for years. I'm sure she doesn't hold it against him.[/QUOTE]
I agree, 10 years of doing challenges together they know how to play the game, I'm sure aneesa would have done the same if she was on CT's position.

She may have or may not have but she won't hold it against him just like he wouldn't have held it against her. You can't go against the numbers
[QUOTE=kvm1977;416280]This is called someone that won't give credit where it is due
Aneesa did well--earned respect
Laurel won--she earned that as well
Even in a losing effort someone can impress--any real competitor/athlete knows that[/QUOTE]
I'm not saying she didn't earn respect. I am questioning her "title" as The Elimination Queen because I don't agree with it.

You don't have to "agree with it" but she's been given that title due to both Duels
[QUOTE=stuufman;416275]The girls are really showing up this season on the elimination rounds better than the guys.[/QUOTE]
I'm glad they are after the horrible girl eliminations last season

Even Laurel herself gave her credit. Unfortunately some people see everything in black and white.
[QUOTE=AshKelseyFan;416272]She lost twice in a row. [B]It doesn't matter if it was a split second. [/B]Laurel outperformed her. She lost.[/QUOTE]
Of course it matters if it's a split second, because that's all it takes for the outcome to have changed completely.
Laurel is at her peak at this moment, she has taken second place THREE times, 0 wins, has had more of a break than anyone. She is rejuvenated, determined, hungry. She is the most focused she has ever been and probably will be. Second place is not an option for her.
[QUOTE=kvm1977;416288]You don't have to "agree with it" but she's been given that title due to both Duels[/QUOTE]
Yes, girl, I do have to agree with it. And if I don't agree with it, I'm gonna say it. Now if you have a problem with my opinion, I don't really care.
Yeah that was a great elimination between Aneesa and Laurel. Was pulling for Aneesa. I also secretly thought Preston was going to win, because it's just kind of how his edit has seemed this season, but I was happy Cohutta won. Preston was definitely the weakest there at that point, but I don't think he gets as much credit as he might deserve. He performed pretty well this season.
Hey guys... Please do not personally attack other members! If you'd like to start a debate, take it up in PM. Have a ball. Just don't do in in the public threads.

Had he not tripped over Cohutta's helmet, there is a decent chance that Preston would've won that elimination. I love an underdog win.

I do sometimes like Derrick vs Syrus or Kimberly vs Ruthie but I can't stand Preston and Cohutta is one of my favorites
[QUOTE=Youssarian;416277]Have any of the remaining girls go against Laurel and see how they do. Aneesa definitely exceeded my expectations for her in this elimination round. It's not like Aneesa was no good - she performed extremely well. The only reason Laurel won was because of her height advantage and longer reach.[/QUOTE]
She exceeded my expectations, I was pretty sure Laurel was gonna take this one either way but I had no idea it was gonna be this close. In that particular elimination Annesa did well but compared to Laurel as a whole, Laurel is still the overall better competitor.
Theresa's the only girl left that even has an outside shot at beating Laurel in anything we've seen and her best chance is Balls In because of her athleticism but I still think Laurel wins. Unless she quits or DQs I don't see how she doesn't win this season--of course, I've believed that since I saw the list of girls

Its a shame that Cooke Emily & Sarah said no, they would have made this a **** of a lot harder for laurel
[QUOTE=Challenge 17;416317]Its a shame that Cooke Emily & Sarah said no, they would have made this a **** of a lot harder for laurel[/QUOTE]
sarah is great but she has no shot at taking on laurel in any of these particular elimination rounds.
[QUOTE=AneesaOwnz;416320]Aneesa did amazing !! Really wanted to see her take the win. Here's to hoping for next season.[/QUOTE]
Unless she greatly improved her endurance, I cant see her winning
[QUOTE=v123;416321]sarah is great but she has no shot at taking on laurel in any of these elimination rounds.[/QUOTE]
I meant Sarah for the final because none of these girls left are a threat in a final except cara
Eh, just watched that preview. I know Cara can come off kind of whiny sometimes, but if Laurel is really her best friend, I don't understand why Laurel would speak to her in that manner. If you're not really going to vote her in, just say so. I don't understand why she says one thing and then another, thinking that Cara Maria can suddenly read minds. I had hoped that they would have sent Theresa in over Aneesa, but now that Aneesa is out of the way, I gotta think that the next target on Laurel's list is Theresa (maybe Jessica).

Laurel was clearly implying that she might vote for Cara. Then she tried to pretend that wasn't what she meant when Cara started get angry.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if Laurel voted for Cara. This wouldn't be the first time someone voted for a "friend" and Laurel shows no mercy when her safety in the game is at stake. Cara being arguably the second best female competitor this season will also probably overshadow them being best friends. Having Cara and Theresa in the final wouldn't be a good thing for Laurel because they're tougher competition than Devyn or Jessica would be in a final.
Laurel def doesn't want Caramaria in that final with her and she basically said that by saying she gave her word to Devyn, Jess has been too nice, and she doesn't want to vote in Nany sooooo who does that leave, Theresa and Caramaria.. Shady Laurel.
One thing that bugs me.
Why did the guys vote Preston? I don't see the point in sending him in Elimination. that's someone you want to keep around as long as possible. Voting in one of the weak links wasn't going to help any of the guys.
I can't believe Laurel had the audacity to tell Cara, "don't speak" ***. I'm glad Cara said something in the confessional.
I'm really disappointed that they're going to have problems next episode. They're my favorite girls.
