[quote=_d.j.;73551]Well I will tell you this, Sarah isn't home yet so that puts her there for almost 4 weeks now. I think my girl is doing just fine. Also she isn't like a track star or anything but she can hold her own, and goes running and walks our dog all the time.[/quote]
I hope Sarah does well because she's also from SF like me.

Thanks for the support, I miss having her home, but the longer shes there the better.
Wes is cocky cause he has a right to be.At lot of these people come on these shows and are cocky for no reasons or just cause there in with the in crowd and the big alliances.Wes both times on his both challange apperances was an outsider and holded his own.Freshmeat he wasent in that alliance was voted in and sent in like everytime if I remember correctly they went in about 7 times and he was victorious he was never defeated and he made the final.Then on the Duel he wasent in the alliance till Beth gathered one small allliance and they fought there way.He managed to make the final and win it.He's proven himself countless times over and over again.

He may have "holded" his own but I still don't like the "I'm the best" attitude. And he isn't the only one who has an attitude with reason. This is just my opinion, so you can disagree with me all you want, but we have only seen him compete an a real elimination round against Derrick. I don't exactly count the exiles because they were all the same and again, he was lucky Casey packed so light compared to like Diem who packed real heavy. He excelled in the swimming challenges and that was it. It seemed like he wasn't in the "in crowd'' on the Duel was because he didn't want to be. And on the Duel, it didn't seem like there was any real alliance besides Beth's and Wes' with Evan.
I just hope that Kenny/Evan/Johnny don't run this challenge and this isn't a "hey lets focus on Wes challenge" like FM and Duel was.

Beth's alliance on Duel II was set up the week before the cast left for Brazil. Wes, Nehemiah and Svetlana were all at our photo shoot in LA and the deal was done there for the three rookies to be in an alliance with Beth. We also knew at that point that Aneesa would join, too, but she was not in LA when we all discussed the alliance. There was a discussion of strategy and the roles people would play, including keeping this alliance quiet until the time was right to show it.

How was pole wrestle not a real elimination? I thought Derrick was going to take Wes for a ride and once again Wes was victorious. Pole wrestle was right up Derrick's alley, he's a wrestler.
I don't think FM or the Duel was all about Wes. He was an outsider on both challenges, and he did very well for himself.

I said the only real elimination we've seen him do was pole wrestle against Derrick. And although being an outsider on FM and Duel, it felt like most of those shows were about Wes with little shots of other cast members when either they did something significant like Diem and her cancer or Tina hitting Beth, or when they were eliminated like Derrick. Sorry, this is just how I felt.
Sometime my coach has always told us at games a win is a win does not matter by how big the margin is how badly the other team was hurt or if they had less talent.Something a lot of people go by as well and something movies use as well I think in the Fast and the Furious movie series.Vin Disel says "Does not matter if you win by an inch or a mile a win is a win".Not saying that he's a man we should listen to or a role model but that quote makes a lot of sense.Casey may have carried way less than Diem or others to the Fresh Meat Challange but Wes still pulled out the win no matter what the circumstance.Yeah the exiles were all the same and he did have the advantage than the rest cause he went in many times.It was not his fault though he didn't ask to be put in everytime.Evan,Coral,Theo,Chanda and the rest put him in.Currently we know of that Wes has been put in twice to the pit already and has come out victorious he is currently still undefeated in elimination rounds.Point is you can't say he dosent have a right to be cocky.

I never said he doesn't have the right. But I did say I don't like cocky people. I would like him a lot more if he won like he does now, but didn't gloat or brag. You brought up sports, what if you got beat and people on the opposing team would talk about how they beat you and how good they are. Is that something you would think is cool or look up to? I really don't think so.
Its one thing to be cocky in front of others and to be cocky in front of the Camera never once have I seen Wes rub it in someones face that he's better for example in Pole Wrestle with Derrick he shook his hand and hugged him.Yeah he's cocky but only on Camera away from the others people face.A Team that's cocky in front of the face of another team is direspectful but if they do it in there own town or not in front of my team its cool they have a right to b cocky they earn it cause they beat us.Yeah you didn't say Wes dosent have a right to be cocky.You did question though his athletic ability based on saying that he's gotten too cocky just cause he's suposably been lucky in some of the challanges he's competed in.

Wes is athletic, especially in the swimming missions but I feel that he doesn't need to be the way he is. Arrogance is not a virtue I would want my friends or people around me to have. You really shouldn't have a problem with what I think. And it isn't just Wes that I don't like. It just happens that we were on the topic of Wes.

Yes fresh meat was all about Wes, but maybe its because he was in 5 out of like 8 exiles and of course alot of the episodes were about Wes but that was because he was IN every episode and won the whole thing
[quote=Eagle;73549]This could be the best cast ever assembled for any RW/RR challenge. Wes alone makes this season greatness... and Johanna and Kenny are on too how akward for those 3.
I expect big things from Kim, Ev, Wes, Darrell, and Johnny Bananas
My thoughts on the newbies:
Bri- She has to be pretty athletic I would assume because of the agility you need to be a stripper. Knowing her history of drug abuse I wonder if that has had an effect on her athleticism. I don't see her being afraid of anything, so thats a plus.
Ibis- I can't remember if Ibis has done a challenge before. I don't remember her as being that great of an athlete on Road Rules. But she wasn't bad enough to get voted off so who knows.
Sarah- She doesn't come across as a very athletic person. I hope she does well, but I expect a quick exit by Mrs. Sarah.
Chet- I like Chet, but I don't expect much. I predict he will be the first male off.[/quote]
I have to agree with you on Bri & Chet. However, no one has seen much from Ibis in sometime (Since the Gauntlet 2), so she could surprise us all. Even then on the Gauntlet 2, she lasted until the end... even though she basically rode the wave. She's never gone into a Gauntlet or anything like it. She will probably last until mid season.
Due to her mediocre athleticism.
I do think Sarah will be a victorious rookie. She might not win the whole thing, but she has potential to make it far. I think when it comes down to it, Sarah can and will be a tough competitor.
This cast is better than the Duel 2, and that was pretty good.
Veronica makes this whole cast. ♥
I'm glad she is trying to keep her spot as the person with the most challenges under her belt.
I think she will be doing more after this.
[RIGHT]I'm new by the way :)

Ibis a newbie ? Ibis is a veteran she's done 2 prior challenges (Battle of the Sexes 2, and Gauntlet 2, which she won) and now her 3rd challenge. She was the 3rd and last person voted off Road Rules, and on Battle of the Sexes 2 she made it close to the end, considering that she was a rookie. She made it to the end in won Gauntlet 2 (even though towards the end she messed up in 2 challenges. She is a good competitor and I'm glad she is still there.
I am happy that Sarah is there also, being a rookie and not knowing any cast members there besides Chet (who is eliminated) she is sticking around !

It seems like she is doing just fine, sad to say none of us, her family included, have heard much since she got there, but the longer she is there the better right? People underestimate her all the time but she is really competitive and will surprise a lot of people.

Who are u talking about ?
Sarah seems like she has it in her to be very competitive and I think her being a rookie instantly sets her up to be underestimated. I agree that she will surprise some along the way during her time there.
[quote=rw/rrjunkie;74186]Who are u talking about ?[/quote]
That would be Sarah
I would thoroughly enjoy watching Sarah transform a bit this challenge sort of like Kim had on Duel II. Not many people liked Kim in the Hollywood season, but she shined personality wise on the Duel II and became a competitor!
I did not really care for Sarah on the season, but I have a feeling watching (whenever airs) this challenge will change my opinion!

I wonder which girl on the Champ side is kicking *** the most ! My bet is Tonya

I hope so. It was painful to watch her on The Island, and she is one competitor I feel bad for. She gets so much **** it seems on these challenges.
I doubt Johanna is going to magically emerge ***ome "bad ***" female. But...I have seem more shocking things.
