[QUOTE=Meelz;352526]The same guy who falls off anything over 10 ft high and then eventually quits. Yeah, losing to him - to me, would be embarrassing.[/QUOTE]
Maybe one person there would have beaten him in that elimination (Zach).
I don't care that Tyrie and Dunbar lost but I can understand why Tyrie reacted the way he did.
He's not a great competitor BUT he hasn't had a lot of great chances. Lost to Alton in the Inferno 3, had to leave the Gauntlet 3 because of his girlfriend (I believe), the Island was all on him and then he had Davis, Jasmine & Dunbar as partners...that's almost as bad as Sarah's partners--maybe worse
Can someone explain this elimination to me? Why did Tyrie and Robb engage each other in the middle? Isn’t it the job of the defender to defend the bell?
I think Tyrie wanted to prove himself realistically, but it would've been a major uphill battle - especially considering neither are top tier competitors.
Let's say they did win. Tyrie & Dunbar would've eventually landed back in the Jungle or would've been voted in until they went home because it's just easier to vote that way, people don't expect much from them, and because of Dunbar.

Think football. The defender is engaged by a blocker and has to try to come off that person to stop the other player. Robb & Tyrie were battling each other while Derek & Dunbar were supposed to use their vision to find space to get through and reach the bell. It was essentially a grade school football drill

Glad these guys are down to earth and don't let Challenges affect their everyday lives. Everyone knows it's not worth hitting someone on a challenge costing them a lot of money, but if it were outside a challenge they'd be sitting down in a corner crying. I think we all know who that would be (frank).
Great premiere episode though. Everything was good except for the elimination challenge, I felt like it was a little weak.

Like linemen at the line of scrimmage... gotcha.
[QUOTE=kvm1977;352546]Watching this again--Jonna really was impressive. Back in the day she would have been someone protected in the real "team challenges"[/QUOTE]
Yeah it is so much harder now for people to win since there aren't as many team challenges. Both Nany and Jonna would seem like they'd be two solid girls on any team challenge.
[QUOTE=Legend;352420]I hope Emily and Paula don't just trailblaze this Challenge. It'll get old.
Zach's going out of his way to be a ****** to Trey. Even Trey seems to want to bury to hatchet.[/QUOTE]
Where in the world does Zach get this condescending attitude?
My takeaways from the episode...
- Paula and Emily will steamroll this whole thing. Ya got lucky, Paula.
- Tyrie and Dunbar prove how horrible they really are. Prediction: Tyrie and Dunbar are paired for Rivals 3; they lose on the plane ride. (In all seriousness, Tyrie keeps getting put in bad situations. He, Sarah, and Brandon have bad luck on these things)
- The next challenge has been confirmed: Exes 2
Dunbar has never been my favorite. He's always been overrated. How the hell do mess that up!? I've never been a Tyrie fan but I felt bad for him. He didn't do well round 1 but got it together and held Derek and Robb off long enough for Dunbar to get there [B]WAY[/B] ahead of him
[QUOTE=Legend;352554]
- The next challenge has been confirmed: Exes 2[/QUOTE]
The only way that happens is...
1. Leroy hooks up with someone he could possibly win with (hopefully he's smart about this)
2. Emily hooks up with anyone at all
3. One of the "classic" couples is game for coming back. Danny & Melinda, Abram & Coral, Alton & Irulan...something--they need one legit "wow" moment like CT & Diem
[QUOTE=wutzrenzi;352558]I think Marlon was getting attacked on his twitter over that CT scuffle? Not sure exactly what's going on his wall.
Fans are nuts.[/QUOTE]
Marlon can hold his own i am sure, but he said he doesn't remember anything of the fight yet hes tweeting back how he neve rbacks down from a fight. Dude you were blacked out it's hard to believe he has that attitude when ultimately ct was strangling/drowning him and jordan at one point at the same time. But crazy CT is back in full force. I honestly believe none of the rookie girls watch this show, but all the rookie guys probably do becuase they always seem more prepared.
I think getting rid of johnny early is smart. Tyrie wanted to face them so he wasn't ******* off the team that would face them. However, it is only smart if tyrie/dunbar were good at anything. like if you are a middle of the road or lower end team why would you want johnny there to use you as a pawn and get rid f you? so it was a bad plan only becuase of who they were facing. But i get where he is coming from.. What happened from exes why does ct hate johnny again? Maybe he realizes all the crap he talks about him or something. It is amazing how all th girls immediately will side with johnny and he will probably ride the whole way since i doubt him/frank will get last. they don't really hate each other it's not like they can' twork together, and frank isnt the type who won't listen to anyone like zach was so i think they will skate by.
Frank live tweeting during the shows is basically ct/knight/zach bashing for 1 hr. Camila looks different to me but i cant place why. I wonder if she had anything done to her face or something like work done
Tyries "if you are gonna ge tme up outta here" in the trailer sounds a lot tougher on a trailer. I kind of feel bad for the guy how he never ever can get far.
[QUOTE=Fullback12;352564]Your almost right but, it has been said/stated numerous times on the show and vevmo that Zach is 6'4 and Trey is 5'9... still a big height difference.[/QUOTE]
If Trey is supposedly 5'9" then he's a legit 5'7"
The Premiere was good.
I liked that CT tried to devise a plan to target John. It was really great to see Johnny shaking for once. He was mad that someone actually had the balls to go after him for a change and it got him rattled. Did it make Ct a target? of course but he and Wes we're going to be targets regardless so it really doesn't matter..Oh and the girls reaction was just a testament to how so many people on these things are up his ***. It's sickening.
I liked the Jungle. Dunbar/Tyrie..eh don't care that they lost. I'm glad that Derek/Robb won though.
The little twist they have is decent. a lot of people are going to be ******* for votes. That's for sure.
I'm Surprised that Zach and Trey won..Wasn't expecting that.

I liked it too, why they are scared to against him?, I thought that without kenny and evan, it would be easy, but damn ppl still are afraid. CT was right to make the move, thats what I dont like about johnny everytime someone tries to go against him he acts like a b****.
[QUOTE=Fullback12;352569]No, not supposedly he said in multiple interviews that he's 5'9.[/QUOTE]
Johnny is around 5'10 5'9 because I've met him before and I was about an inch or inch and a half taller than him, and Johnny is the same height as frank and I've seen frank stand next to trey and he looks about a good 2 inches taller than him.
[QUOTE=kvm1977;352506]Dunbar crying like a little *****
I still think if Jonna & Derek made the final last year they would have won.[/QUOTE]
Especially since Dunbar didn't hold onto Tyrie in the challenge, and couldn't ring the bwll in the elimination. He's passing all the blame to Tyrie.
What surprised me is how CT didnt give a **** about Johnny, what happened to their xbox friendship??? He wasnt even doing it respectfully and in a nice way, he's like remember rivals 1 and told him to shut up and stop whining, and he said he's not the ring leader, umm yea you are...Wes isnt doing that. I like it though cause I cant stand Johnny and I'm glad they drew the line in the sand early on, I did not want those 2 teams working together, and Johnny looked uncomfortable, probably the 1st time in a while he was sweating
and I agree Ana looks like a crack head, she just keeps getting uglier and uglier, not to be mean but omg wtf is happening to her, and her blonde hair on portland reunion looks even worse. I'm not trying to be mean, she was beautiful on RW but now she looks like shes on crack

They can be friends outside the show, but not on challenges,johnny is only loyal to one alliance (kenny and evan).
