I mean she’s thin as a rail, clearly has extreme cardio capabilities (even if not in a distance type setting). I feel like once again people are understating this. She’s freaking trained for and competed at the highest level in female sports across the globe. She will slaughter all other chicks if she makes the final.

They lucked out with Joe and Fess fumbling the week, but that would have been a really shitty way for the show to lose Wes because he would have gotten dragged in the elim imo


Huh? Against that thousand reps BMX chode in a physical competition? No frickin way. Wes would’ve destroyed him.

Yeah, I think Wes could take Kyle in that elimination and Kyle made relatively easy work of it. Wes would have beaten Joseph easily.

Look at her competition, she's still in better shape than any of the other women.

I would only pick Natalie to beat her in a final.

Wes wouldn’t “destroy” anyone in a physical comp like that. You’re forgetting just how small he is. That guy had 2-3 inches and probably 20 pounds on Wes. All he’d have to do is body slam Wes a couple of times and he’d be done.


He’s one of my favorites, but Wes just isn’t meant for those physical comps. Bear absolutely embarrassed him in a very similar elim and that was pre roid Bear. Joe is bigger than Bear, and Wes was basically curled up in a ball at the end of that waiting for it to be over


Wes is also at a point in his life where he isn’t putting himself in physical harm for these shows. He’s got money outside of the game, while most of these players are basically fighting like rabid dogs to put food on the table.

Joe seems pretty chill too, like most of the rookies usually do when they face the more serious vets in elims like this, so maybe Wes would have a better shot, but he’d still be an underdog.

He’d play it strategic and just play dead and try to get him out of breath dragging him to the poles, then use a burst to try to snake the ring onto his at the last minute. He’s smart enough to maybe win it but saying 5’8 165 Wes would “destroy” anyone in that comp is a “rookie” call


That elim was not designed for Wes if he’d gone in.

I think my favorite part of the episode last night was the discussion where Devin said he couldn't understand a word Nicole is saying.

You could see glimpses of how crazy Lolo is when she was trying to get with her partner. I think that's why she didn't get picked initially, she's nuts.

She's a 38 year old supposed virgin. That would drive anyone crazy, right?

I think the Kam pickup by Kyle was very smart, but passing up Lolo could be a really big mistake. She is a lock to win the final of she makes it.


Right now, with how they are doing separate guy/girl eliminations, and switching up some partners each week, there’s definitely a chance that the final could be individual, so it won’t matter how good your partner is. I would think that at this early stage of the game, with as little as they know about what’s coming, your fare better with someone like Kam who has alliances and political skills.

Is there any way to watch episodes online besides MTV.com? I can usually watch them there, but E2 isn't loaded as of yet. I have it recorded at home, but was gonna see if I could squeeze it in during lunch.

If you 'recorded' it on Hulu or YouTubeTV you should be able to access it through their app/site.

If it's an actual DVR recording, then I don't know.

Nah it's just regular Cox DVR at my house. But I used to be able to watch the episodes the following day on mtv.com. But for whatever reason they episode isn't on there yet.

On a different note, I feel like the music they are using this season is aimed a lot closer to our demographic than it used to be.

There's actually a Spotify playlist...

Tears For Fears, The Smiths, INXS, The Cure, and a cover of New Order.

DRIVEMAN POWER TIERS

TOP dawg

Fessy/Anessa - Major misstep by Fessy not taking his skull when he had the opportunity. Not only that, but he had a chance to kill two birds with one stone dump Anessa’s arse to the curb. Instead he lifted his SKIRT to the entire house. Embarrassing and HE knows it


LEGIT contenders

Nam/LoLo - Don’t think Nam has a CLUE to what type of game he’s in. Lolo’s pension for drama leads me to believe she’s going to bolt eventually

Leroy/Kaycee - Solid team

Wes/Survivor girl - Wes groveling was outstanding. He also looked like he cycled UP for this season.

Kyle/Kam - Kyle was game for the elimination but think Wes would have taken him. Kam will bolt at some point.


NEED a new partner

Darrell/Amber B - Darell and LoLo pairing would be bad news for Fessy. Pairing LoLo’s natural gifts with Darrell’s calm head would vault them to 1B to Fessy

Cory/Tori - Tori can do so much better than this Teen Mom deadbeat

CT/Big T - Feel good story but it would be a surprise to see them run MY final


THANKS for comin

Josh/Nani - First Josh meltdown of the season next week. Nani is looking more and more like post op Michael Jackson with her bleach white skin complex going on her face

Jay/Theresa - Just because Jay showed so much fight last season

Devin/Boigahs - Devin’s one of the worst people on the show but he was pretty hilarious this WEEK. Looking forward to see which chick Nicole will runs
her wear-you-down type game on this season.

Nelson/Amber M - Nelson...what a clown.

Lio/Gabby - I hope Lio gets into his wrestling promo BAG at some point and butts heads with someone. Gabby seems worthless

Mechie/LIV - When do they find these people?



DRIVEMAN OUT

Nobody anchored to Aneesa can be the top dawg.

They only won the second challenge because their allies handed it to them. Terribly designed competition.

If Fessy eventually trades up (or just gets stolen, which is more likely) then he might have a claim.

The mob should eventually wise up and see that Fessy should be targeted, but I think you need the combined likes of Wes/CT/Kam/Nam/Leroy etc. to do that and I just don't see it happening. If John was there, he could maybe come up with something, but he's not,so the point is moot.

Hell, even back in the day when JEK was rolling, they tried oust CT on The Duel and they couldn't do it. And that was with Wes, Kenny, Evan, and John all controlling the game and setting it up.

Fessy is going to be extremely hard to overcome, but if they realize he can be anchored to Aneesa all season, that may be to everyone else's advantage.

Problem is, as soon as Fessy goes into Elim and wins, he's ditching Aneesa at first chance. Literary any other female would be better than her in a final. Even when she wasn't 400lbs back 10+ yrs ago, she still dragged complete arse in the couple of finals she made and finished dead last in all of them.
And those were back when the final was like a 4 mile run on the beach.

I could see Devin taking on Fessy in a puzzle challenge.
