Aftershow next week guys.[/QUOTE]
I agree that it was funny. That's one for the quote thread.
[QUOTE=RW561015;124655]Did anyone think Johanna might have liked what Darrell said about KA?[/QUOTE]
Yeah I think so, haha. It funny how Cohutta was cool about everything. He was in the midst of it and didn't get mad.
Next week's sneak peek looks good. It's Wes and Ev going nuts.

Cohutta - I really don't know much about this guy at all. I saw a couple of minutes of him from the first couple of episodes of The Island. Other than that, I have not watched his seasons. However, he just seems like [I]such[/I] a genuine sweetie pie. We don't see that so often on these shows. I really like him a lot from the couple of minutes I've seen him. I hope he goes far in the game.
[QUOTE=morris614;124652]So being a coward is awesome?
Throwing missions is nothing new in these challenges, people do it all the time.[/QUOTE]
Yes, throwing missions is nothing new but I like the fact that Wes is being alienated from his team and he doesn't even care! and to me it is ironic that Kenny and Evan talk **** about him having a huge Ego. Enough of that lol Chet Impressed the **** out of me!
[QUOTE=Morris1721;124631]But how would she know Tonya would call her in?[/QUOTE]
Because Tonya, as well as the rest of the cast, knew Diem would lose on purpose!
From what I saw, Wes alienated himself before his team could. From what I dont remember Derrick ever being mad at someone. He may have had enemies on the team, but if he would have been a mad about it he wouldnt have had the whole team mad at him. I refuse to believe Kenny has the power to get the whole team mad at Wes.
OMG did you see the clip on mtv.com where Johnny is doing an interview and Tonya(drunk) interupts? Hilarious.
Im guessing based off the title for next week, that next eppy will be when the Champions decide to pit Kelly Anne and Ev against each other. Also, I think this is the eppy that Shauvon "pops" her implant.

Cohutta is probably one of the nicest and sweetest guys from Real World. He's my favorite guy on the challengers and I hope he goes far too.

So Diem let the entire cast know what she was doing? Hope TJ didn't find out, another speech would be in order.
On the throwing missions thing: Like I said, I don't really like throwing missions. The only time I thought it was really a good idea and not bad whatsoever was when the guys on BOTS2 threw the last regular mission so that the girls would have to keep Arissa. It was a strategy for their team against the other one instead of them doing something wrong to their team. Did they have to do it, no. They were much better than the women's team anyway. And I wasn't rooting for them, but I thought it made perfect sense.
But I can understand when someone on a team feels they are being unfairly picked on or targeted, they will not want to help their team out in any way. Think about how Beth knew her I2 team wanted to get rid of her - why should she have helped them when they wanted to eliminate her? Or if Katie would have went through on her threat of throwing the final for The Inferno - though there was money involved for her, it could have been worth it a little to her because of how her team treated her (plus the other team offered to split the money). Or if the girls on G3 had thrown the missions on guy days, who could blame since the men did the same to get rid of them.
[B][I]IF[/I][/B] Wes had known JEKD and whoever else were going to throw him into the elimination round each time to try and get rid of him, what is he going to do to try to save himself? They would not be respectful of him, so why should he help them (get money in the bank account). I'm just not sure he knew for sure, and it looks like he was trying to throw missions just because he couldn't have the power. Which is a major jerk move, and not fair to the other people on the team. I don't condone the way he was acting. He is really no better than the other power guys on the team. As I said, I think he is cocky and ridiculous like the other guys on the team. And it seemed a big part of the reason he did what he did was to get the full power in his hands. But I'm sure he felt his back was up against the wall. I think he could have saved the "throw the missions" card until he was sure they were going to treat him unfairly. The only thing I really agreed with Wes on was trying to get a more fair voting system underway, and not falling down to JEKD and letting them take over. Other than that, I think he is insane and as much a jerk as the other guys.
[QUOTE=Morris1721;124671]So Diem let the entire cast know what she was doing? Hope TJ didn't find out, another speech would be in order.[/QUOTE]
Things like this happen all the time in these challenges. BMP knew that Diem had to leave. Beth leaving on G2 was staged as well. She knew she would leave at that time and so did BMP.
My issue with Wes is that he takes himself very seriously. Too seriously for what this is. When Kenny or Evan says they're God, they've got their tongue firmly in cheek. When Wes says he is God, he believes it.
When you start cutting people down because they're "just" trainers or don't have college degrees and talks non-stop about how he's better than everyone because he's smarter and wealthier and owns businesses (a yogurt shop, I believe), when you say people are scared of you when really they just cannot stand you because you're acting like an ******* and above it all, you have to expect for these people to come swinging at you. Also, Wes is no better than Johnny or Darrell when it comes to treatment of women on these shows. He was vicious with Casey and pretty harsh with Johanna in past appearances.
Wes is NOT trying to make the game more for fair for everyone. He wants to make it fair for himself. That's fine; it's the same thing everyone else is trying to do. He went in down on numbers because he chose to, by trying to keep his appearance this big secret. So he missed out on alliances. He screwed himself, then screwed himself further by acting like an *** when he walked in through the door.
So far I'm liking everyone else, although I thought Darrell was an *** for going after KellyAnne. Yes, she has gotten around and has hooked up with more guys there than she's 'fessing up to, but he insulted her just to get to Wes, and it was pretty ****ty. Especially since other people there have had their share of hook-ups. Darrell also knew a lot of the people there didn't like KA either going into the game, which I think fueled his Wes/KA tirade. I can see why Darrell was ****** off and how he was trying to egg Wes on to hit him, but still.
[QUOTE=KellyA+Wes;124678]Kelly anne and Wes are easily the most feared/best couple to ever play this game... They are ****** love them..[/QUOTE]
HA! People are afraid of KA? please....thats worse that in G3 when people said Danny and Melinda were a feared couple. If Wes is so great, why is he afraid of Nick? Does he fear the movement?
I do agree Wes is good, but hes no better than Landon, Mark, or Evan.
i belive johnna and paula were shaking in their boots begging not to go against kelly anne on the island.. I belive diem said kelly anne scares her just this episode.. so yes people are afraid of her...
and you can tell all the guys are scared and intimidated by wes.. for example darrel who called wes out to fight and then cowarded out last minute..
Wow Wes looks really ridiculous in the preview for next week's show.
I don't get why he's acting like this. Kenny said after that Island episode aired with him hooking up with Johanna, Wes was sending all these emails and text messages and phone calls to people saying he's going to kick Kenny's *** for about a year. He's with Kelly Anne and he and Johanna were already broken up! Who is he to get mad? Move on already.
I can't say any more than what's already been said. Chet looked SEXY! The again, he always does. I really think we'll finally gave a [I]Challenge[/I] akin to those from the good ol' days! <3 Wes getting in JEKD's faces remind me of why I loved him all through The Duel. He's being similarly bossy, but I love seeing John, Kenny, Evan and now Darrel (though I never, ever thought I'd say that about Darrell) being taken down a nice peg.

"Staged" as in the whole debauchery with Aneesa (and the team's classless goodbye message) was fake, or "staged" solely on Beth's part?
[QUOTE]i belive johnna and paula were shaking in their boots begging not to go against kelly anne on the island.. I belive diem said kelly anne scares her just this episode.. so yes people are afraid of her...[/QUOTE]
I do not recall at ALL either Johanna or Paula shaking in their boots about KellyAnne, and Diem said that KA is a wild card for their team, not that she's scared of her. There is a BIG difference. I don't doubt that KA can kick ***, but no one is "scared" of her.
[QUOTE]and you can tell all the guys are scared and intimidated by wes.. for example darrel who called wes out to fight and then cowarded out last minute.. [/QUOTE]
Darrell was clearly trying to get Wes to hit him because Wes is a threat to the team due to his ********* actions, not because he's some superstar. No one seems scared nor intimidated by Wes. They DISLIKE him. There's a big difference. I have not seen one person there act scared of Wes, only annoyed and disgusted. Evan was concerned about strategy and alliances when Wes popped up out of no where, because Evan has always been paranoid and twitchy that way. It's one of the reason he does well in Challenges, because he's trying to strategize from all angles, and the last-minute additions threw him for a loop.
Also, Wes and KA are hardly a stellar couple. They were broken up before the Challenge, are clearly into each other at this Challenge out of support as well as personal feelings, and Wes is clearly not over Johanna.
obivously I overexaggerated with the shaking in their boots comment but both johanna and Paula told kenny and johnny they didnt wana go up against Kelly Anne in the face off on the island.... It's in the tapes..
And if darrell wanted wes to hit him why backout of the fight.. Why not go outside and let wes hit him and get kicked off the show?

Sorry, someone has informed me about a mistake that I have made.
In I2 her leave was staged. She had prior arrangements that she had to attend.
Another correction. Tonya did not know about Diem's engagements prior to calling her in.
Loves me some Wes!
His ego is nowhere NEAR as obnoxious as Kenny's or Evan's. He just seems like he has the bigger ego because he's the only one defending it. The rest of the guys, on the other hand, stroke each other's *****.
My favorite thing about Wes is that he tells it like it is and he's honest. He admits that Johanna hurt him. He's honest about his nervousness around the guys. He admits that he wants to go against Chet because he thinks he can beat him. In that sense, he's way more likeable than Kenny. Plus, he doesn't take any ****! :)
What I don't understand is how the **** do Evan, Kenny and Johnny always end up on the same teams. Is this something they demand for their appearances?
In terms of the way the teams match up it's basically the Baltimore Ravens vs. a 12-and-under pop warner team. Wes is about the only hope the challengers have of winning money until their egos and personal issues with each other take hold.
A battle of the Champions would have been good. Surely there are 14 more previous winners that would come back.
What happened to Shauvon? I loved her during her season; she came off as a strong, intelligent blonde in the beginning of her season, but now she's a mess! She looked amazing as well during Sydney. Poor, poor Shauvon):

The three of them have only been on the same team once before this...
