Bananas is such a joke, get a ******* job already and stop whining. And even though I like Leroy, he's so pathetic for being such up on Bananas' *** when he was the reason he went to the previous dome. Sarah owes nothing to him, the person he should be mad at is Bananas. 

They're great friends in real life.

And for some reason I don't think you'd ever talk like this to any of the cast if you saw them in real life. Smile

Good Wes can have the label of being strategic, but i think he would trade places with Johnny in a second and be called the BEST.

I'd love to know what Susie thinks of Sarah's move.  She probably gets it better than anyone else because Johnny hates her for being strategic as it didn't benefit him

Johnny only like strategy that is "pro-Johnny"

You have to respect when you get played too...that's the game

Quick question, was Bananas ever a "strategic" player like people are saying in twitter/FB/those mtv blogs/aftershow? I can't remember him making a move that was not against the people he hates/fears or the typical throwing in rookies?

Not really. Backpack is usually on top and has alot of friends on these shows that won't say his name and are good competitors themselves so he really has the luxury of not screwing his friends.

I feel like Bananas is slowly going to be the outsider on these challenges.
I mean people are starting to realize that you can't afford having him in the finals, like the only (male) friends he has are Leroy, Mark and to an extent Reily/Jordan, but Jordan/Reily/Zach is probably a much stronger alliance in future challenges. To me it seems as if CT/Wes on the other hand seem to get along with the new guys far easier.   


I definitely wouldn't mind if this happened.

Wes is probalby the only one who wouldn't trade places with Bananas as seen on Rivals 2

I love when people say Bananas is the best and then you show them a clip of Cutthroat. Here that's the guy who is the best at this.

BTW: Can someone please change the wikipedia page about the Challenge. BattleoftheExiled are not elimination rounds of BOTE2...

I like how he is calm and using his inside voice and then all of the sudden they turn in to a reverse cheerleading group.

I know they're great friends, what I don't understand is why he's mad at Sarah when she doesn't owe him anything and he isn't mad at Bananas who was his friend and betrayed him. 

And your point is? I know I will probably never met him (thank god) or any of the cast so I honestly don't care. 

I really hope that when Backpack starts *****ing at Sarah she just simply says "I don't give a **** what you ugly *** has to say I'm in the finals and I have a good chance of winning now so you can go cry in a corner somewhere..Oh and I hope you lose to Leroy!"

LOL you tell his ***, Sarah! When someone makes a strategic move that affects him, it's like the biggest betrayal in the world. Someone commented this on The Challenge facebook page and I completely agree with it. 

"It is not the same thing as was done to Paula. Not even close. Sarah had to choose a team and had 2 choices. Johnny dumped a teammate right before he cashed in. Not even a remote comparison! Just the episode before this one (****correction brought to you by other fans - the same episode!) he was telling Sarah it w***mart" to vote in strong teams and that Nia was reacting with her "emotions". Funny how Johnny suddenly has "emotions" when it happens to him. It is staggering the # of ways in which he is a hypocrite..... almost impossible to believe. It would make sense that this is all an act for the camera but it is just sad that it is (likely) not!"

He's such a hypocrite. 

Johnny and Kenny gave Paul***pot away because it was his way of saving himself from having his key taken and basically being eliminated from the game. It was a last ditch effort and yea he screwed Paula but at the same time it was an eat or be eaten move. The equivalent of what Sarah did is if he had 100% secured himself into the island final and merely gave Paul***pot to Evelyn because he though he had a better chance of winning with her instead of Paula. Thats the distinction people seem to be missing. She didn't have to vote in J&N. Thats the point. All 3 friends could of gone into that final and competed among friends and may the best man/woman win. Does he have a right to be upset that a friend backstabbed him when she didn't have to when she had 100% secured herself into the final? Yes.  Everyone would have that right to be upset. And again why do you think he's mad about this one when in the past he took other votes against him better? Was he pissed off and lashed out against Paula/Evelyn for voting him in? Or when Ct sent his *** in against mark? No because he understood why they did it and the crummy circumstances of why it happened.  Also hypocrisy doesn't invalidate someone's point either. People just want to hate him because hes Johnny Bananas. The irrational hate is tiring. If the backstabbing happened to a fan favorite people would be in an uproar.

If someone is really your friend you'd understand they were here to win and you were in their way.  You'd understand decisions that a 2 year old should get

Bananas did what he did to Leroy to save his own *** from a possible future elimination against wes/theresa or being voted in if they won. Leroy didn't plan that far ahead. J&J were most likely going to lose against wes and theresa and then they'd come right back and be a threat. Leroy didn't get played so much as Leroy allowed himself to be played for not thinking about the outcome.

That's what they should have done long ago. 



When should they have done something?

On Rivals 1, the mob had the majority, the only one who could've done something was Evelyn. I think at that point, people just underestimated Bananas/Tyler and they felt like they will beat them in the finals (especially Kenny/Wes), it feels like at that time, he was again just mister number 3 on the mob alliance. His win/abilities wasn't expected.

On Exes 1, he had an alliance with CT/Mark/Paula where they promised not to go against each other in the beginning/middle and Diem definitely saved his *** back then, where she didn't listened to CT in the end with going for Bananas insted of Paula and with going with Ty/Emily instead of the beatable Mark/Robin.

On Rivals 2, he was paired up with Frank and he probably saved them some votes on the girls side.
The first challenge where Bananas was vulnerable, they went against him and even there, had he not won the last daily challenge with Nany that day, he would've gone into that elimination round again, because CT/Reily/Zach had a pretty solid alliance going on.

With his five wins, he automatically will have a huge target on his back...

Bananas didn't  need to be the greatest strategic player,Because he is the best ALL AROUND PLAYER,the dude is great at every aspect of the game.

That's my point though, I can't think of one single strategic play of him which means he is not a strategic player at all. I think in that regard, he always takes the easiest way possible and that is not strategic to me. 

 

There shouldn't have been a mob on Rivals 1. Him and his two ******* friends had all the power because people allowed it. If they didn't then the game becomes different.

Exes-He really just had no opposition strong enough. That's all that is.

Rivals 2- The way voting went that season saved his ***. He had enough of the girls votes for him to never seen a Jungle.

I've said this before but he's gonna have to be ganged up on and have no allies at all and lord knows that's not gonna happen with the people stupid enough to let him walk to the finals. He really benefits from the fact that people play scared and stupid.  And half the cast is friends with him and will allow him to get to the end. If he had no power and no friends I bet he woudn't be ***ucessful at this show as he is.

 Was he pissed off and lashed out against Paula/Evelyn for voting him in? 

Yes, he was livid when Paula sent him in

Sarah played the game to win...Bananas has a chance to stay--beat Leroy--if you can't you deserve to go home

Leroy didn't get played so much as Leroy allowed himself to be played for not thinking about the outcome.

And I don't blame him at all for that, Wes and Theresa were the best team hands down and sending in Leroy and Nia was the smartest decision. But when someone tries to get rid of him then it's the biggest betrayal in challenge history. Gimme a break

I love when the Wes fans bring up Cutthroat,but isn't it funny that Ct the guy who beat Johnny called him the best Challenger ever in a interview before Free agents?And let's not forget Jon Murray said the same damn thing in the same interview.

This isn't a game of monopoly. Its for real money. Its why a lot of these contestants play together as friends to win together. Because they want their friends to win as well. So when people want to say "its just a game" it clearly isn't just that.

They already got paid just to show up.  They're not guaranteed anything more than that.  And there is a lot of real money at stake.  Sarah has every right to do what it takes to earn the most.  Maybe a real friend that has won 5 and a ton of cash should be willing to go in a fight for a chance to win knowing his "friend" has never won and this was likely her last chance.

If Bananas is throwing away over a friendship over money and a game then they were never friends

Cutthroat is still there and will ever be. I'm not even a Wes fan that much, but I think it's just funny that the best guy of this thing got embarrassed so much.

But it was a move made out of neccessity and fear of being eliminated or sent into a final elimination. Sarah's was a move made out fear only. Fear that she may not be capable of beating Johnny and Leroy. Not the biggest betrayel but its stilla betrayel. Banana's betrayed leroy too but like I said the writting for that one was on the wall.

Why would she want to go against Bananas who's won five of these in a final?

You wouldn't be remotely upset that someone you trust stabs you in the back on the spot like that? 

Being under the impression that your pre-game alliance with a friend will be honored and then have that not happen should cause some negative feedback. And if not, that's your prerogative, but most people value and trust their friends lol.

 Was he pissed off and lashed out against Paula/Evelyn for voting him in? 

Yes, he was livid when Paula sent him in

Sarah played the game to win...Bananas has a chance to stay--beat Leroy--if you can't you deserve to go home

You must've seen a different edit of the show. The edit I saw doesn't show Johnny saying a single word about it to Paula or Evelyn. They show him arguing with Wes for a second but then when Kenny tries to apologize over it he says "It's fine. Leave me alone now, I have to focus".

It isn't fear based.  You eliminate competition.  Just like Johnny & co want CT out during Rivals.

The fact Johnny didn't see this coming just proves he underestimated Sarah's desire to win.  If you want control win missions--Johnny's always lived by that.  He left himself at jeopardy.

Johnny was already eliminated once--he should be back in the an elimination round.

As a fan I'd rather see Jay & Jenna eliminated because I want the best three in the final but as a player Johnny would be going in and it has nothing to do with my opinions of him.  Like I would have thought Bananas was an idiot if he won and didn't throw in Sarah & Jordan...you never make the final harder than it has to be.  That's not fear--that's logic.

But being in as many challenges as they have they should understand as "friends" that in this game you have to make tough decisions if you want to win.

If you're thinking of Derrick's podcast that was Tyler as well. Johnny didn't do Derrick's podcast the whole second half of Rivals. He could've said it somewhere else that I didn't hear, maybe I missed that one.

I never said she didn't have that right. She can do whatever she wants. At the same time her decisions have consenquences as well. So a real friend should let a friend win money just so she can say she won? Really? is she hard up for money? I remember reading a tweet someone posted on this site that said she was marrying a fairly well off guy so I'm guessing not? So now its banana's fault for not taking being screwed over on the chin and being happy about it? All I see are people trying to justify what Sarah did. I've never said what she did was wrong or right. Because in that situation there was no wrong or right decision. If she really didn't value Banana's friendship enough then who cares what she did. At the same time if she wants to sit there and act like its just a game and he shouldn't be mad thats crap as well. Thats just an excuse. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

I would probably be mad at the moment, but he's still livid after 6 or 7 months after that happened.

I'd have expected it all along...but that's just me

It is still a game and I know how badly Sarah wants a win

If you don't win the mission you have no right to complain--none.
