What a terrible reunion. I can't believe I wasted my time staying up for that.
Can someone explain all the Cara hate? It's not like she's a massive crap talker or anything. Even the people relatively new to the challenges don't like her. I don't get it.

Decent finale.
Glad CT finally got one under his belt. I like how they finished and Wes was like "You take the check...you won that shite." That was pretty cool (even though I much prefer a-hole Wes).
Was it me or was this finale not near as tough as some of the other ones? I mean, I don't know how luch running they had to do or how big that island was, but once you run it once, you know what you're dealing with and it's a mental game.
I also thought the challenges were easy as frick (except for the eating one...I'd have SUCKED at that shite).
Who did Paula win the first Rivals with? I can't remember..
ETA: Also, glad to see that the reunion sucked...guess I'll delete that one and not even bother watching.

The finale sucked. It looked painfully easy. Also, why have literally the easiest section last? Dig a small hole and then crawl through a trap door? The challenges should get harder as you go so that by the end they're all mentally and physically dead.

Paula won with Evelyn. She's been really lucky with partners even if she is a great runner herself. Evelyn was pretty much the perfect female competitor and while Emily has weaknesses when it comes to puzzles and swimming, she is so damn good at everything else
Wes seems so much nicer off steroids. He didn't do a single dickish thing all season other than get in a fight with Leroy over him being loud in the mornings, and it wasn't just editing from producers. No one disliked him other than Leroy. Production gave him multiple shots in the reunion to attack Bananas, and he didn't. Very surprising considering the animosity between the guys. I would have gone for it. Who the frick is Bananas, especially now that his two friends aren't allowed to do the shows anymore?
Speaking of Leroy, if CT & Wes weren't in the final, I genuinely think Mike and Leroy could have won this year's show. Would have been the greatest upset ever , but Frank was surprisingly bad at puzzles and Bananas has lost it. He isn't good physically anymore.
Reunion was worth watching because of Knight slapping and then trying to punch Frank. Knight's invitation to the reunion was suspect from the beginning since he wasn't really in any main storylines but I don't think it was staged. Emily and Jemmye's reactions were too legitimate, and those girls can't act. Didn't realize Emily was so close with Frank.
For a live reunion, it could have gone a lot worse. No one seemed fricked up besides Knight, which is great for the producers who have to remember the Island reunion. Sure CT was a prick to Mosely, but Mosely must be the most easygoing, non-confrontational guy in the world.
The guy used to do back flips 30 feet in the air, risking paralysis and brain damage and did it better than anyone else in the world. I have no idea why he wouldn't give it to CT. He has nothing to be afraid of, especially with 3 security guards 10 feet away.
I would have said something to him along the lines of "Look Chris, your relationship with Diem was a main storyline and we've had lots of questions about it from fans on Twitter and message boards. If you don't want to answer, that's fine, but people will lose interest in you really quick. And if they lose interest, you won't be doing these Challenges forever. Which means you're just another chainsmoking, 200 pound trainer in Boston with not enough saved up."
Unless Mosely is intentionally sandbagging it to make himself look like the world's softest extreme sports athlete to get CT even more over with the casual fans, I don't get why he was such a pussy.

Yeah, that was weird.
First stop was Cracker Barrel game (btw, I ate at CB two weeks ago and DOMINATED that game).
Second stop was math.
Third was eating.
Fourth was bodies.
Fifth was dig a small hole.
Seemed WAY easier than previous finals. I always liked the ones where they had to memorize shite (like names or the one with the campsite setup and they had to recreate it exactly). That's the shite that is mentally tough and where makeups can be made. And it was bullshite that each first place team had to open the next challenge for the second place teams...it should've been more fair, and the fact that they designed them that way proves that they knew it was an easy challenge (so they tried to make it as "catch up-able" as they could.

That's what I thought, but couldn't remember.
And maybe I'll give the reunion show a shot. Might watch it FFWD or something to get to the good parts.

CT was joking with him. I thought it was fairly obvious.

Food challenge looked very hard, especially in the Thai heat. The mental stuff was easy, although harder than last year's mini-Suduku thing. I paused it last year and did the puzzle. Took literally 2 minutes for me although granted, I'm more intelligent than Dustin Zito, Thor, and Sam.
The last part of the finale is usually not that hard, and I get why. Last year's first day was very hard, especially with the sleeping limits, but the second day was basically just a 6 or 7 mile jog. That sounds manageable until you realize they spent the last night sleeping less than 4 hours after basically doing a Tough Mudder.
This year's was easier but I imagine anyone posting other than KBeezy would struggle to do all that stuff in 110 degree heat, all while losing 2-3 pounds from vomiting.

He wasn't joking with him. He was intentionally being difficult with that jokingly cocky style he uses now, whenver anyone asks him some non-softball questions. Hey, it's an improvement over what he did in the years following his brother's murder. Did the same thing on Bravo but held back because he was speaking with the President of one of the fastest growing cable networks that shows a lot of reality content.
Mosely has none of that type of power but no reason to back down unless he is just a super easygoing guy, and maybe he is.

i would like to know the distances and shite for this last challenge. that could be a total game changer on the difficulty. also, the body part looked hard as shite and the eating would obviously be terrible.
ive always rooted for wes but it was a different wes this season. im ok with it, but i liked other wes better. made things so much more interesting.

Aside from the eating, that finale was absolutely pathetic. Also, the first part was a swim, followed by a puzzle, and then a kayak to the boat.

Just watch the part where Knight slaps Frank. When Frank eventually comes back on stage it looks like he'd been crying.

Good season, terrible final. Nothing touched the difficulty of no sleep, get butt naked in ice cold water, then climb a snowy mountain. This was amateur HOUR
The driveman has got to give it UP for half hand. Dudes a warrior and was held back all challenge by his big 12 linebacking butt pirate marlon.
Cooke, Camilla >>>>>>>
Bananas is done. Diem is unbearable
Evelyn and laurel to go along with Crossfit and Cooke would make for some good competition.
shite the should have shown was great
Hoping the next challenge are 1v1s. Still can't get over how bitch of a final that was. Kicking a team off after the first part was pointless. And why not SHOW us the time elapsed during the final?
DRIVEMAN OUT

This has to be the biggest mystery of the season. Not Jordan being such a strong competitor. He's clearly very athletic and a competitive guy. But how the hell can an All Big 12 linebacker be in such bad shape 2 years after he's done with college football? It's not just that he's a bad swimmer. He can't go at full speed for more than 90 seconds in any of the physical stuff. The only time he was a superstar was when he wrestled Ty to the ground in the Oklahoma Drill, which is essentially a football play.
But he was out of gas before even Rajon Rondo on the T-bone/skateboard half pipe game.

my pre-season rankings for the season for pretty much spot on. i should go pro
also, johnny hasn't lost his athletic ability. he never had it. fricking twat sits out every season until the final because he and his buddies run the game.
