The Challenge: Summer 2014 - Discussion (Spoilers)

didn't read too far into the thread... but Theresa is average (until she proves otherwise). She's a marginally stronger version than Paula when she was racking up her losing streak before being carried through 2 challenges by the 2 strongest women to do it. (Yes I have to put that in there every time).

Theresa just needs to******* up and win to dispel any negative opinions. And I believe someone mentioned that she's missed the final every time?  It's her fault (granted Tina knew/liked Tori and essentially let her win on Cutthroat). If Wes & Casey can go 5-0 on Fresh Meat and make the final where they were one of the weakest teams.... if Landon can win with Carley... by winning when it matters despite the poor political game Landon fell into... if Evelyn can put her feelings away to make a proper decision to win the Island.... then Theresa is definitely capable of performing when it counts. That is, unless she is mediocre like we all think.

Wes and Casey's victories were the result of the baggage weight rule set by production and nothing more. If they didn't unknowingly pack less than their opponents then they would not have made it past episode 1, since there would be no way they would have taken out Danny/Ev if they all carried the same weight. That's why it's important to look at things on a case by case basis rather than just making a generalization just because they got to that final. As much as I like Wes, those Fresh Meat exiles add vapid padding to his elimination record that are only meaningless numbers at the end of the day.

Where can I obtain the crystal ball that told you that Wes and Casey would not have beaten Danny and Ev if they had the same weight? That's merely speculation.

While Wes and Casey had less of a disadvantage, the fact is, they got sent in and they won, which allowed them to return. It's that simple. Winning is all that matters.

The crystal ball can usually be found in the spherically-shaped structure attached to your cervical vertebrae, anterior to your frontal bone. It's not exactly made out of crystal but rather an organic connective squishy tissue material that functions equally as well as a crystal ball so long as minimal cognitive capacity is in order.

Wes and Casey barely beat some of their opponents despite carrying significantly less weight than most of them. It doesn't take a crystal ball to realize that if they barely beat their opponents with significantly less weight then they would not have won with similar baggage. That "fact" that they won is lovely until you've  taken away the smokes, mirrors, and 32lb of make up.

Unfortunately, that's still speculation. It matters not if you barely win or blow the opposing person or team out. Winning is what matters. And you can take away the "smoke and mirrors" in your mind, but in reality that's not how it happened.

I love how Theresa plays the game politically though. It's hilarious to me how shady she can be making idiotic decisions causing uneccesary drama. I can't wait to see her and Wes play his game together. 

Lol they were like perfect for eachother!! But I still would have rather Wes with a legit ex and Theresa with Leroy.

Winning only matters to the cast members participating in the competition(and even then that is, only if they actually make money at the end). It makes no difference to viewers but Instead, viewers would rather watch or discuss the details of the episode and elimination round rather than receive a cliff notes synopsis of what happened, otherwise there would be no point in having episodes span beyond 2 minutes of simply naming off results since all that matters is "winning."  Svetlana "beating" Beth on the Duel Push Me, Wes/Casey "beating" Linette by mere seconds despite carrying 60 lb less, Kelly Anne "winning" against Ev, a gym rat "squatting" 400lb by dipping under only 2 inches, yeah, a number is just a number and a title is just a title unless it actually carries some substance and meaning behind it.

Speculating, critically thinking, and hypothesizing are lovely skills to have and nobody should be dissuaded from utilizing them even in something as basic as reality television. Civilization would have have been suppressed if scientific thinking skills were not utilized.

I thought Jenna was dating someone?

was is the key word lol I heard she cheated on him by the end of week 1 and he confirm it on instagram pictures on one of Jamie's picture while she was filming that the rumors about her cheating on him with zach were true lol

 

but  Jenna posted something on her twitter to suggest that  she was loyal. And her bf said screw what you heard and she's still his girl.

Do u think JohnnyR and Nany did hook up again???

Idk. I didn't think they did but there has been some recent tweets about them making fun of their hookup.

I feel like they are just talking about free agents still. Idk. Johnny R was with his gf when they left I think and I don think they are together anymore. But idk if Nany and Johnny r would hook up at a challenge again, maybe idk..

Yeah probably. I don't see them hooking up again.

For some reason I think this was hilarious, Jenna's exes staying united jk

Once he starts kissing Bananas's ***, that'll be the end of that!

I come back for a bit & the main topic is Theresa -___- ....i'll go back in hiding now lol

How many challenges did Landon do? 4? weird how some cast member make a bigger impact than most regulars, like him, Svetlana and Kelly Anne seemed to brought up alot before. Im bringing it up because i can't think of a recent rookie that even comes close to Landon's impact on viewers, atleast for me, he was a beast.

Thanks for telling me how to get you to stop posting.

Kidding.

I don't know what it is, but I would not be opposed to a Cory, Jonna, Simone alliance on a future season. It's an oddball trio, but for some reason it works!!

Probably... I mean, it's Nany...

Did Nany and Adam hook up?

Doubt it...Nia did hook up with someone and based on her interatcion with Adam, I would think it was with him.

 

Did Nany hook up anyone ?

I predict that Challenge 27 will be Rivals 3 because of the upcoming real world season. There are like rumors of Rivals of the cast members coming onto the show so maybe they'll do a rivals 3 after BOTE2.

Jonna and Cory would be a hot couple Smile just saying.lol  I have a girl crush on Jonna. Love her

I hope that isn't true. It's way too soon for another Rivals.
