Just fricking suck
Tyrie - Denver 2007 (killed RW for me for a while)

The bolded seasons are ones that I watched when they were originally on. I really haven't watched the Challenge too closely through the last 4-5, so I don't know about 20 of the contestants or almost 2/3rds of the show. So, maybe it's on me, but they just aren't as good material wise as the old crew used to be.

Now, these veterans just let the other 2/3rds go nuts while making the 4th wave wax their balls just to stay in the game. It's crazy that B&M let Wes and CT be on a team, because that's a natural Veteran alliance, they'll put differences aside to make money, especially sense they semi-respect each other. Wes hates Johnny, Evan, and Kenny (as evidenced in FMII) over any other challenge players.

Side Note (last for night):
Paula has really endeared herself to me over the years, from whore, complaining bitch, to real winner. I've enjoyed her transformation. Sarah seems to try and follow her path. From the first moment Sarah started doing challenges, she was so much better than she was on Brooklyn. Kudos to both of you.
