[QUOTE=kvm1977;413269]Johnny was ****** at Tyler on The Duel, Johnny was ****** at half the guys on G3 and Johnny was ****** at pretty much everyone on the first Rivals. Johnny handled it well on The Ruins and volunteered on Cutthroat but he's had his moments. Jorddan's "earn your stripes" comment just continues to prove Jordan is an idiot but Johnny doesn't handle eliminations well most of the time[/QUOTE]
LOL I remember on the Ruins Johnny went to Kenny and Evan and started spouting nonsense about Syrus sustaining an injury so they would vote him in the Ruins over Johnny. I remember this moment because they both laughed in his face at how pathetic and desperate his attempt was. Johnny's response to them was basically "What??? I'm srs u guize!"
Lol yeah Johnny was a little b**** back then. However he's come a long way and has proven to be a top tier competitor on this show.
This is Jordan's 2nd challenge and he's being such a huge hypocrite and *********. He hasn't really proved anything I mean he got 3rd on the last challenge which would be impressive if Rivals 2 had more than 2 strong male teams. This challenge he's been garbage in every mission except the ball one but Bananas outperformed him in that one. He should just sign CT's waiver already so we don't have to see his huge gap in his teeth and uneven haircut on our televisions anymore. I feel like Laurel could outperform this dude in anything, so I guess that explains why Laurel is with him since it's some kind of ********** fetish.
I dislike him this season, but are we really going to act like he wasn't consistently doing well last season? Him and Frank were the best males that season. I do agree he has performed very poorly, but he has still shown a lot more on Rivals 2 than most of the other new generation guys.

Zach and Trey were the best. I would say CT & Wes performed better than Johnny/Frank on missions. Jordan impressed people because he was able to do the challenges.

The two missions they won they had a distinct advantage, I don't remember how well they did in other missions. CT/Wes were just average for a bit of the season and Johnny held Frank back at times with his lack of training. Jordan didn't just do the missions, he did them extremely well. Marlon even held him back, at times.

Says Jordan and Frank were the best last season
Doesn't remember the fact that CT and Wes outgassed both those teams in the last mission, swam faster than both those teams in the 1st part of the final, was the only team to solve the puzzle and won the whole thing.
CT and Wes outperformed everyone but I do think that Frank did real good.

So doing well in a mission and final means you were the best of the season? CT/Wes were not consistent enough last season, both are still very good.

So because Zach and Trey won 2 or 3 easy missions that are in no way enduring, they are better than CT and Wes who won the only mission that involved conditioning and the whole final?

Didn't say that, so your point?
[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;413355]Didn't say that, so your point?[/QUOTE]
Wes and CT performed better since they won (and completed) the only mission that involved actual athleticism and won the whole final.

LOL if that is what you want to believe go ahead. Fact is they didn't do much to impress for quite a bit in Rivals 2.

So being the only team to finish the last mission while the other teams didn't isn't impressive? Considering the fact that CT and Wes gassed out in finals but the King paired up with a young buck with unlimited stamina and then Jordan paired with a D1 football player could barely get 75% of the balls in the goal?
Zach/Trey - Won, Won, Top 3, Bottom half, Last
Jordan/Marlon - Tied for 2nd, No indication, Top 3, Won, Top 3, 3rd, 2nd to last, DQ, 3rd
Johnny/Frank - Tied for 2nd, No indication, Won, Top 3, Top 3, 2nd, Won, 2nd, 2nd
Wes/CT - Tied for 2nd, DQ, Bottom half, Bottom half, Won (allowed to win), Last, 2nd, Won, Won
Wes and CT obviously came on strong at the end, and if you include the final, then obviously were the best team (and the challenges they won were the hardest two), but front to back performance? I don't think it's clear cut which team was the best unlike in past seasons. Averages of total performance it might be Johnny and Frank.
Last season I think the guys teams were all quite strong bar Knight and Preston. Any of them could have made it far just depending on the politics/elimination round pairings.

Tyrie/Dunbar & Robb/Derek were awful teams IMO
[QUOTE=kvm1977;413428]Tyrie/Dunbar & Robb/Derek were awful teams IMO[/QUOTE]
I don't think Robb/Derek were terrible, just mediocre and out of their league.
Bon voyage young sir. If you watch the replay Bananas was already ringing the bell when Jordan fell off the wall so editing really did him a favor by making it look like it was neck and neck when he went down.
I still stand by the opinion that the guy is a good athlete...he just brought his C game to this one and got **** stomped. For all his mouth he was statistically one of the worst competitors on the show this season. 3 DQs and 2 bottom performances in 7 challenges.
Current poll result:
Did Jordan really make the biggest mistake in 'Challenge' history?
Yeah, his cockiness bit him in the worst way. - 69%
No, he very easily could have won under different circumstances. - 31%

Lol. I think what made it the most boneheaded move is that he obviously wasn't confident before going in. Like he obviously didn't want to follow through anymore and thought he was going to lose, which made the move infinitely more stupid to me.
I still like Jordan after this season. It's very clear now that a lot of his ego must have been edited out of Rivals 2 (I say that never having watch any Real World), but I still think he's a decent athlete (even amongst challengers) and he's clearly very headstrong in his convictions.
He would have come off a lot worse if hetalked all this talk about taking Bananas out and then not flipping all the cards, and even though he was looking for some sort of way out in talking to Laurel I still don't think CT and Leroy really orchestrated it. But who knows.
I don't know if I want a Jordan/Bananas Rivals 3 partnership, but I would like to see their rivalry continue in future challenges, maybe as captains of two teams in a Cutthroat-esque season.
[QUOTE=Debut Album;415302]As Been said Jordan made a dumb move. But it's nice to see someone so ready and willing to stick it to Backpack. I do wish he would've won.[/QUOTE]
As much as Jordan irritated me this season I wish he would have won as well because Bananas, still, after all these years gets on my last **** nerve! Lol.. Selfish reasons, I know!

Wait a second...you mean you wanted to see a relatively new player beat a guy that's done a ton of these...I'm shocked
We've seen countless people go after big dogs (just rewatched the Duel 2) and the same result always happens
Jordan was never going to beat Bananas. Being ready and willing isn't enough...you have to be able and Jordan isn't

I certainly dont want a jordan/bananas rivals 3 team because they'd most likely win. I think Jordan needs to actually show up and do something on one of these challenges before winning. Although he did get far on rivals 2 his performance on free agents was pathetic and with him running his mouth he should have to actually back up what he's been saying instead of coasting to the final like he most likely would if he had banana's as a partner.
