The Challenge: Unpopular Opinions

I've liked Jordan from the very beginning and I still like him after all the crap and hate he's recieved since Free Agents. I know he was a cocky ****** and I get why people don't like him, but I feel like his competitve side just got the best of him and I think he's a good person inside. If Frank Sweeney can change his behavior/learn from watching himself on TV I know Jordan can.

And before anyone says "Jordan's been on three shows and he hasn't changed" Frank was a million times worse than Jordan could ever be and nothing seemed to get through to him untill Free Agents; his fourth show. I know Frank showed little improvements from show to show but he was still pretty much unbearable untill Free Agents. Jordan didn't have any serious beef  against him untill how he acted on FA. Also Frank left early because of his sickness and now he's apparently retired so we don't know exactly just how much he changed. He acted great from what we saw of him but the old Frank could've come back later in the show.

Agreed, I've been watching him sincerely his season of the the real world, he can be an *******, but I'm sure he's a good guy in real life.

I don't get how Frank "changed". He was on FA for three episodes and sick the entire time, we have done idea how a season-long well rested Frank would have been on FA.

I completely agree FM, as I denoted to in my original post. I think most people, myself included, just found it refreshing to see a Frank who wasn't whining/*****ing, talking shit, or starting drama every time he was on camera; for however a brief of time it may have been. Similarly on Rivals 2, however, Frank was decent half the season and then near the end good ol true colors through and through Frank was right back. So, I agree, a couple episodes on FA where he was ok proves nothing. Like I said, though, he's apparently done now so we will never get another opinion on it.

Jenn kind of annoyed me with her love interests. Every person she hooks up with, she says she doesn't really like them, when she actually does, anyone else notice that?

I think she was embarassed by hooking up with Adam. I don't think she should have denied their hookup but she is still one of my favorites..

I love how Paula was questioning her hookup with Adam on Rivals and like judging her when she has hooked up with him... lol

He also got Kellyanne.. So props to him.

Well I personally don't blame Jenn for that I mean it's Adam after all.

Yeah, I think since we had the regular vets back, we just couldn't see how bad he was.  Then he talks about these new kids have no respect and egrades Jemmye. I heard he also punched Knight, which obviously wasn't aired as well.

Then I shan't think how Melinda must've felt over the years :/ lmao. Adam is one of the weakest male competitors ever and he actually beat winless in elimination rounds Danny. Throw in the fact that Danny is more paranoid/creepy than Adam and he and Melinda were married for years, not just a hook up like Jenn and Adam, and I seriously feel bad for Melinda. Throw in the fact that she's a friggin bombshell who happens to be a sex freak and I can't understand why she ever gave Danny the time of day. She must've finally figured it out because she divorced his ***.

Well l mean Danny is attractive at least so that probably factored into her being with him. I can't see any other reason why she would mess with him.

Best legit LOL I've had in a good time. No offense twoards your tastes, everyone has their own, but I just find Danny to be overly paranoid, and he always thinks hes in control of everything when he's not. He has shown to have some serious emotional issues and he's delusional. Obviously I do not know him in real life only off the shows, but he hasn't shown much change to me over the years and all the Challenge one and dones. He always comes on thinking he runs shit, then when his name starts getting said he flips into paranoid rants, then he talks himself up about how he's not going home, and then he loses. It's never really changed with him. Even his only true friend from the Challenges Wes had to cut him because he's too much of a liability. I know part of that is because Wes is a *******, but if it were Nehemiah say instead of Danny I don't see Wes pulling something like that. Nehemiah doesn't play scared and paranoid and can actually win eliminations.

My favorite Danny Challenge Moment: More like the whole Challenge but Danny on I3.. EPIC fail. At the beginning of the Challenge he's trying to run things like he always thinks he's doing when he comes in to every Challenge. On the Rope Burn Challenge he talks himself up as a camper who can start fires, and tries to take control once again, only to fail at making any fire losing the Challenge for his team. He then proceeds to lose to Davis in the Inferno...smh Danny..smh.

When the hell did this become about Danny? It was directed at Adam, and you completely turned it around for nothing.

He has Wes for a best friend, whom he looks up to, do you expect him to be any different?

I'd give Danny the time of day...

I was thinking on the subject of embarrasing hook ups and then I thought damn, what about an embarrasing MARRIAGE, chronicled over about a decade's worth of television. And thus found time for my little Danny rant. Don't care for the guy because he isn't humble. He thinks he's hot shit and he's not. People that need reality checks don't click with me very well. I understand not everyone is going to agree with me, but it is the unpopular opinions thread, is it not? I am a male so I do not judge other males based on their base physical attractiveness. I understand some females would find his physical appearence attractive.

I judge their attractiveness based on personality and attributes that I believe females to find attractive. Acting big and bad, boasting, being cocky, then failing, and then crying/getting emotionally weak about it, I do not think a typical secure female looking for a relationship would find that attractive in a man. He's also shown to be so paranoid I would be willing to bet he's the crazy bf type that is always questioning his girl where she's been/who she's with. Basically his entire personality and demeanor scream insecure and I'm pretty sure insecurity is very un-sexy. But I'm not saying there aren't females who wouldn't go for him, I can't speak for everyone.

Lmao Danny in here getting roasted. All facts tho.

Most of the males on the show act that way though, up until the crying/whiny part anyway. Danny's off the grid now, I doubt he acts that way with any girl he's with, and I'm not going to ***ume what goes on in his personal/love life when I barely know the guy. Obviously, he doesn't play the game, The Challenge, very well, and is very scared and cocky when it comes to competition. Competition in its self makes people crazy and act a certain way to most things, but you can't be the strong one all the time in that kind of enviornment.

I dunno why I find myself defending Danny as much as I do; I don't approve of cockiness, but most of what is said about him is either irrelevant or not valid (I'm not referring to you). From what I know, he tried to do some underhanded bs with the other team, his time on the Inferno might have not been the best, and on Fresh Meat he was the weak link with a weak partner to boot. The Ruins wasn't that bad, he got slightly overconfident which is perfectly natural. And he wasn't on BOTS very long tbh.

There's time to grow, Danny has that time now away from the show.

For sure. I know I'm being overly judgemental about someone I know nothing about, but he did sign up for being on television and there's a territory that comes with that that you're fully aware of. This is a foum of debate and discussion and he has always rubbed me the wrong way on every show he was on, so I felt the need to get my strong opinion of him out. I'm not meaning to attack his character, I'm just going with what he's given me and it doesn't equate to someone who I believe to be my personal cup of tea. But it is just a show and one aspect of his life, and my rant is over now. I'll leave the poor guy alone lol.

I understand where you're coming from though, I don't mean to come off as if I'm attacking you for having an opinion, I just happen have a different spin on Danny than you do and I wanted to get that off my chest. Sorry if it seems like the opposite of that, it wasn't my intention.

Nah, I wasn't offended by anything you said. You were extremely respectful and stated many valid points and true statements. I hope I never came off as disrespectful. I just get p***ionate/heated when discussing things I have strong opinions about. I think it's because I grew up with a big sports background, thus why I <3 the Challenge, and always having heated sports debates with people. It's fun for me. Other than the Challenge my other addiction is ESPN which is all about sports debating.

I dunno why I find myself defending Danny as much as I do; I don't approve of cockiness, but most of what is said about him is either irrelevant or not valid (I'm not referring to you). From what I know, he tried to do some underhanded bs with the other team, his time on the Inferno might have not been the best, and on Fresh Meat he was the weak link with a weak partner to boot. The Ruins wasn't that bad, he got slightly overconfident which is perfectly natural. And he wasn't on BOTS very long tbh.

There's time to grow, Danny has that time now away from the show.

 

For sure. I know I'm being overly judgemental about someone I know nothing about, but he did sign up for being on television and there's a territory that comes with that that you're fully aware of. This is a foum of debate and discussion and he has always rubbed me the wrong way on every show he was on, so I felt the need to get my strong opinion of him out. I'm not meaning to attack his character, I'm just going with what he's given me and it doesn't equate to someone who I believe to be my personal cup of tea. But it is just a show and one aspect of his life, and my rant is over now. I'll leave the poor guy alone lol.

I understand where you're coming from though, I don't mean to come off as if I'm attacking you for having an opinion, I just happen have a different spin on Danny than you do and I wanted to get that off my chest. Sorry if it seems like the opposite of that, it wasn't my intention.

Nah, I wasn't offended by anything you said. You were extremely respectful and stated many valid points and true statements. I hope I never came off as disrespectful. I just get p***ionate/heated when discussing things I have strong opinions about.

 

I'm very much the same, except I come off as mean/rude when I discuss things, so I try to word whatever I say in the tone it's meant to be in.

Jenn kind of annoyed me with her love interests. Every person she hooks up with, she says she doesn't really like them, when she actually does, anyone else notice that?

I think she was embar***ed by hooking up with Adam. I don't think she should have denied their hookup but she is still one of my favorites..

I love how Paula was questioning her hookup with Adam on Rivals and like judging her when she has hooked up with him... lol

He also got Kellyanne.. So props to him.

Well I personally don't blame Jenn for that I mean it's Adam after all.

Then I shan't think how Melinda must've felt over the years :/ lmao. Adam is one of the weakest male competitors ever and he actually beat winless in elimination rounds Danny. Throw in the fact that Danny is more paranoid/creepy than Adam and he and Melinda were married for years, not just a hook up like Jenn and Adam, and I seriously feel bad for Melinda. Throw in the fact that she's a friggin bombshell who happens to be a sex freak and I can't understand why she ever gave Danny the time of day. She must've finally figured it out because she divorced his ***.

 

When the hell did this become about Danny? It was directed at Adam, and you completely turned it around for nothing.

He has Wes for a best friend, whom he looks up to, do you expect him to be any different?

I was thinking on the subject of embarrasing hook ups and then I thought damn, what about an embarrasing MARRIAGE, chronicled over about a decade's worth of television. And thus found time for my little Danny rant. Don't care for the guy because he isn't humble. He thinks he's hot shit and he's not. People that need reality checks don't click with me very well. I understand not everyone is going to agree with me, but it is the unpopular opinions thread, is it not? I am a male so I do not judge other males based on their base physical attractiveness. I understand some females would find his physical appearence attractive.

I judge their attractiveness based on personality and attributes that I believe females to find attractive. Acting big and bad, boasting, being cocky, then failing, and then crying/getting emotionally weak about it, I do not think a typical secure female looking for a relationship would find that attractive in a man. He's also shown to be so paranoid I would be willing to bet he's the crazy bf type that is always questioning his girl where she's been/who she's with. Basically his entire personality and demeanor scream insecure and I'm pretty sure insecurity is very un-sexy. But I'm not saying there aren't females who wouldn't go for him, I can't speak for everyone.

Most of the males on the show act that way though, up until the crying/whiny part anyway. Danny's off the grid now, I doubt he acts that way with any girl he's with, and I'm not going to ***ume what goes on in his personal/love life when I barely know the guy. Obviously, he doesn't play the game, The Challenge, very well, and is very scared and cocky when it comes to competition.

Sports debating is much more brutal because you're judging players purely for their on the field stats, it has nothing to do with them as people so it's nothing personal. With the Challenge, I think sometimes I judge the competitors like they're professional athletes thus keeping the brutal criticism mentality, when I need to learn to factor in that these are human beings and I'm judging them for more than just their performances but their core characters and personalities.

I agree. If their performance doesn't define how we see them, their personalities also happen to play a factor in how we view them from home. However, we can't assume that they're like that off camera, and how they deal with life away from the stressful/competitive enviornment that is the Challenge house.

When it comes to a weak character, such as Danny, I think he's a fragment of a whole era of egos on the show.

 

What? Melinda is a sex freak? where did you heard that? i never heared anything about her o.o , someone please enlight me Biggrin

Ya, it was revealed on Real World Austin. Go back and watch it if you can get your hands on it, pretty decent season. She self described herself as a "******" and said she really likes sex. She wasn't as crazy and open about her sex life as Avery is, if you've watched Portland, but she's a freak.

It was never really discussed on any Challenges she was on because she wasn't hooking up with anyone, mainly because she was either in a relationship/married to Danny. I think there was a comment or two made similar to but not directly quoting: "I want Danny to come **** me" (maybe not that vulgar but along those lines. I can remember comments being made) on FM1. That was Austin's first Challenge and her, Danny, Johanna, and Wes were all fresh couples, but other than that no mention of her sex life on other shows.

If you get to see her when she was in Austin, you would be like damn! She's still really hot now but she was ridiculous early 20's when she first hit the scene. Girls don't look the same on Challenges as they do on TRW, where they're make-uped, dressed up, and just partying.

I'm more of a brunette guy, no hate on blondes, but she was over the top hot.

On a side note: I love the fact that out of the entire debate/discussion that's the one thing that stood out to you. Well played my friend, well played. LMAO!

I don't know if this is unpopular but I want Coral back as a host at some point ****it! I thought she did a fabulous job for Portland's After Shows/Reunion and she's both a RW and Challenge Veteran/Favorite. It seems like they gave her one shot and then pulled the plug.

I haven't been keeping up on After Shows and I can't remember many of the recent Reunions, but if it's still Mosely you've gotta be ******* joking me. I don't wanna sit here and insult Mosely's intelligence, but I mean c'mon guys. I think any one of us could honestly out host that clown.

I'm not saying Coral is the end all be all host, but I thought she did a fine job, she's well liked, and I'd like to see her back. It just seems like such a fitting role for her in my opinion.

ahhahaah thats me xD, i shutted down when the words "sex freak" and Melinda were "spoken", hahaha, yeah i didnt watch RW:Austin mainly because i didnt had MTV in 2005 nor did they put RW on during the MTV times here in Portugal, you guys from the US and Canada have more luck then i do because whenever i want to watch anything previous to Fresh Meat 2 i have to dig deep on the Internet to find something x)

Yeah i had a huge crush on blondes when i was 14-16 but now i changed more to redheads and brunettes, but damn Melinda is hot...too bad I wasnt in the challenges or have her age range so i could at least apreciate that beauty live haha, Danny wasted a huge catch tho :v 

I remember Dustin saying Leroy and Cooke would have been better partners than Alton and Trashelle. I can see that from Cooke but honestly how is Leroy better than Alton. Alton can actually swim which benefitted the LV team in Sinking Ship, Alton is pretty adaptable, i wonder who's better endyrance wise. What do y'all think.

I'm not sure but I think he only said that because they combined the Vegas teams, they couldn't have just Alton with Dustin Nany & Cooke.

Also, Leroy wouldn't have thrown a challenge like Alton did. Now this is an unpopular opinion, but I have never been that impressed with Alton. He is great at climbing ropes, sure, but other than that he hasn't stand out in anything for me.

Hahaha 3rd leg, I was reading on a forum a couple months ago and he supposedly was a **** star when he was young. Don't know if it's true but it wouldn't surprise me.
