Rough week for the challenge. Tyler's Death and now Mark Long "The Godfather" mom passed away from Cancer.

quote:

A few days ago, I lost my Mom, and I’m still trying to find the words. I know everyone says they had the best Mom in the world, but I truly believe I did??
.
My Mom spent 42 years as a nurse and put everyone else first and somehow always made my brother and I feel like we were the most important people in the world????
.
My heart is absolutely shattered and broken. I was so so so close to her it physically hurts.
.
They say grief is just another form of love, and if that’s true, I’m loving her so much right now.
.
Thank you Mom for every sacrifice, every hug, every laugh, every lesson, and for loving us the way you did. I was so lucky to be your son. Thank you for teaching me how to be a good man and to always treat others with kindnessI love you, Mom- ALWAYS and FOREVER ??????

Episode 4


Enjoying this season. I like how they go straight into the challenge instead of wasting 30 minutes on it like last season. Thailand is gorgeous. That's on my short list of vacations.

I grew up with a family member on the street that had a pool so it always confused me when people can't swim. It's like riding a bike for me. Yet so many people on the challenge cannot swim and it's cost them millions in the long run. lol nelson and corey and cara have a life vest on. Damn Bluegrassbelle girl is kicking everyone's arse even sydney. Nelson said his leg he brought on weighed about 6- 7 pounds.

Will was so skinny in the marines. Sydney is still my MVP for season 41 and 42. She's such a great pick up. I'm the biggest cara maria supporter but she's pissing me off this season. WTF are you even doing here. This is just as bad as FAT CT in 41. The orange team is so good. Really like this challenge. frick Cara sucks thru 4 episodes

So many hot girls this season. That accent from adrienne is so strong.

Josh is laying it into Cara. Normally I would say FU rookie but i'm so glad he's calling her arse out. She's way too comfortable at this point. Almost seems like she's just here for the appearance fee and I don't like that. This is 4 episodes.

Bananas is gonna breed Lete. Corey needs to frick izzy.

This is the old challenge days. 70% drama and house and elimination and 30% challenge

Holy shite. Anna Leigh is happily married to a baw who owns a farm with animals. "Im horny as frick" what's with these gen z white women who love the bbc. I can't believe she just told a 24 year old black man that
The challenge is fricking back. If those cameras weren't there anna leigh would have fricked leo
anna leigh seems like the girl that has gotten everything she ever wanted in life and was never told no. This was the first time she will have to deal with the consequences.

Nury's is an angry woman. I usually don't like big brother players but I like Keanu. God damn Lete is a monster

Nury's vs Anna Leigh. I approve of the earlier message. We need anna leigh and Nurys to sit on each other's face for elimination Is nury's tall or is anna leigh short? Here we go

anna leigh is so hot. The girl next door. You could tell she worked on a farm before. Nury's is a city girl

Sydney' - I can't share a bunk with bitch she might stab me in my sleep

Bananas is the man. keanu repeating everything he says

LFG anna leigh

My husband is obsessed with this show he would be loving watching this on tv. Not the best episode to say this

anna leigh just kicked Nury;s arse. This was a great episode.

She deserved every bit of that. Two challenges so far where she's been a complete liability but she's not worried about being thrown in.

Just searched.. apparently she's still married and says that the episode left out her apologizing to Josh for acting like that and disrespecting her husband. Wonder if we'll ever see her back.. if I was married to her I would have been pissed.

always like when the math is clear as day as far as alliances go and nurys is just shocked by what happened. The "you'll owe me one later" doesn't work when you don't have the numbers or means to call in that favor.

Sydney was my favorite rookie last year and anna leigh was becoming my favorite this year. I'm not sure she will come back after that. She kicked nury's arse in that elimination and seems to be a great fit for this show.

I still love the beef between bananas and nury's

That tweet he sent out that they showed on the episode.

Wild... I guess 7,432 relationship posts in 3 months just wasn't enough to hold it together.

Episode 4.


Cara is a fricking shell of her former self, good Lord. You don't even have to dive if you don't want to...just jump in vertically and you'll sink as well. She's just so bad at seemingly everything now.

I feel bad for Anna Leigh.

CT, it's not disrespectful for Josh to tell Cara that she isn't performing worth a shite. Josh even said that he knows she's been a beast in the past, but none of that matters right now in this season. And he's 100% right. And CT is full of shite too...Josh isn't saying she's not a hall of famer. But he is a little upset that she isn't acting like one. And that is valid because there have been multiple challenges so far where she has cost her team a chance to win. I mean, she couldn't get off the fricking platform in this one.

I've rarely seen people so unable to keep it in their pants like Cory.

Anna Leigh, you're not sure how to handle the tension? Are you retarded? "It's hard to forget you're being filmed.." I would love to be watching this episode with her husband.

Nurys is smoke, but man she seems borderline insane this season.

Sydney is annoying and cocky as frick, but I feel like everybody knows that, including her. So Nurys calling her fake seems a little sideways.

This seems like a tough elimination. 15 poles of different sizes seems like a lot.

Anna Leigh: "I'm doing this for my family." Does that mean you're doing Leo for your husband?

The John/Keanu repeater thing was hilarious.

I hate to see Nurys go, but Anne Leigh is a solid addition this season.

Permanent captains seems like a bad idea for entertainment purposes. Also, I assume this is the captain that has the say so of how the money is split at the end of the season? I hope orange is stupid enough to vote John as captain.......

This was kind of a boring episode though.

I'm hoping something changes with her because I want her sent in every time blue team loses from now on.

We need the old CT back. He's too soft and respectful now. You think the rivals 1 season CT would be saying any of this. He was be mocking cara

she was so much better before she met Horacio.

I kind of like this. I don't like switching up every episode. I like simple like the original cutthroat. Yeah no way any of them lets bananas as captain. I bet they let CT be captain since he gave money out one season he won.

Wes giving some behind the scenes for Rivals 1 final. If you could recall Rivals 1 was the hardest final at the time.

LINK

quote:

remember hearing Tyler violently vomiting for hours at about midnight the night before this final. I was counting the money and shining the trophy in my head.

The next day he housed the mountain climb after an entire day of running and gleefully entered the eating portion long after my soul had left my body. He was hiking with the rigor and skill of a billy goat.

Needless to be said, he powered through being that ill.



I know he said that he was vomiting from food poisoning, but is there a chance he had (or also had) a concussion from that hit CT gave him and it was overlooked by production?

quote:

Nah we went to the shadiest restaurant ever that night. Only like three people were so desperate they ate what was eventually presented. All three were in the same situation, food poisoning.

We found out the next week production made a mistake and took us to a drug house fronting as a restaurant. When we ordered food the staff were shocked and threw some shite together.

CoCoMoLSU.You feel bad for AnnaLeigh? Why? She basically tod Leo to hop on her then said I forgot they are filming. I'd have divorce papers ready for my wife if she did this. Alcohol is not an excuse.

nurys is pissed because while she was in exile with horatio she's missed out on more socializing with vets and has been passed by with newer fresh meat girls that are better. She's kind of on an island and missed her window to be the alpha chick

I don’t feel bad for her marriage, bruh. I feel bad that she seems like a good, competitive chick who is handicapped by a bad team.

I couldn’t care less about her marriage or if she fricks Leo.

Anna Leigh looking hot getting carried on the shoulders and in that one piece thong by the pool

Tori, Corey, Josh are the 3 captains.
Where did Josh play college baseball? D1 or Juco?

Best challenge of the season. This is what the challenge is all about. Finally the men and the women in a physical elimination. Oh my this is so good. Will is a fricking beast.
Bananas - It's like the opening scene of saving private ryan. explosions splashes people rolling around on the ground people crying this guy over her is missing a leg.

Keanu was made for the challenge. I can't imagine him being on big brother. Grey team is stacked in this game. Did keanu just stiff arm will and bull rush CT the ground
people getting bull rushed from behind. Oh look cara screws the blue team again. Leo slamming lete to the ground you kicked me in the head. frick YOU
Lete is a psycho
CT pushing cara down was one of the funniest things I've seen.

Michele with quote of the episode - I think bananas called it the bermuda triangle.
This is why bananas is the goat. He's more knowledgeable about this whole game than everyone combined. He studies it. Who would have thought Phil Jacksons offense would win a challenge for them. Will with the vince carter dunks.

OMG noooooo. I was worried about someone getting injured in this. WTF deb that backwards tackle with your leg wrapped around her leg. That's what an un athletic person does. My girl sydney might done forever on the challenge That was hard to watch. We're so lucky more people haven't gotten injured on this show. I can't imagine tearing my acl in another country.

So many great quotes this episode. "Im crying and it's not because of pain this is my life. Im not sitting here popping my pussy on onlyfans"

I feel so bad for sydney. That is a rough year struggle to get back to normal. WTF is anna leigh doing. Leo is literally trying to frick her. It's not like he's hiding it. This girl must be horny. I don't think they hooked up in the house. If they did the cameras would have caught it.

Izzy and that arse. She's so hot. Nelson and his cock blocking. smh Nelson begging Izzy not to frick Corey. HAHA
Cara Maria I'd give an F thru 5 episodes. She doesn't drink. She doesn't care during challenges. She's just furniture right now. I haven't seen any bar scenes so far. Looks like they are letting them drink alot at the house.

Lete is a virgin. Didn't see that one coming. She does look awkward in those situations which is strange. Bananas is about to take her cherry. Lete is falling fast for bananas. Will having sex with 2 girls in 2 seasons. He will be a long haul on this show.

This is not the cassidy I remember on USA 2. Sydney is about to fight Deb. This is old school challenge. LFG
Wasn't Cheynne on the challenge back in the day?

Damn Keanu vs Nelson. I've got my money on Keanu after watching him vs Brad. I remember this elimination. Why didn't keanu listen to what bananas and CT was yelling at Nelly. Wow Nelly kicked his arse. Very impressed. Keanu stamina wore out. Like someone said after brad's elimination Time for Keanu to retire. What an arse kicking. In all honesty I hope Keanu comes back. He shouldn't have nominated himself.

Nelly speech at the end was pretty tough to hear. "Every day I was in that hospital bed screaming in my pillow crying not knowing my purpose in life but i didn't want to give up on myself"

I can't imagine what he went thru in those dark hours.

Love the new format. Just winners and losers.

This is the challenge I've been missing for decades.

not sure how corey's team could be fine with him weakening their team to help nelson? The other dudes may not care yet because better him than them but does send a shitty message.

Sydney and anna Leigh not returning to the show would be devastating. That's what has hurt the challenge in the last decade by not having the stars constantly returning. I think she will return after her ACL heals. Tearing your acl at 30 isn't the same as doing it in your early 20's.

I agree or they could be looking at it like the less people we have to run the final the more money we make.
