The Challenge: Battle of the Exes 2 - Bye Bye, Love

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.

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.

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. 

Johnny doesn't have to be on for what he said and did to be discussed.

Haha ok. I listened to those podcasts pretty religiously and am pretty sure no such discussion was had. Especially to the point of suggesting that Johnny "lashed out" at Paula and Evelyn. But sure. Maybe. 

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

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

I think its in part because Sarah herself seems to be defensive about the  decision at least on the blogs. I think if she owned up to it instead of trying to justify why she did it then he might be less upset about it.

Defensive how?  She fully admitted she did this to TRY to eliminate the team that was her competition in the final.  You're not making any sense.  None

Win competitions--if you don't deal with the consequences.

Nah. Some people are never happy.

Owned up to what? She didn't do anything wrong. She played the game.

I don't think she has anything to own up to. She was pretty upfront about her reasoning. Johnny has to make a choice if he wants to be friends with her or not over it and be able to live with his decision. 

I think no matter what if a friend betrays a friend they are going to be upset/mad and have every right to be. If my good friend betrayed me in something like this the way Sarah did I would be pissed in the moment and probably for the rest of the show but after the show I'd get over it because it was a good decision. Bananas is getting too much slack for being upset about it in the moment because it is a natural response to being backstabbed by a friend. Should he still be mad about it today? No but does he have a right to be mad while still filming? Yes. Sarah made a smart decision regardless but cut Bananas slack since he was blindsided.

Thats my point. If it were less "I'm playing a game" and more "I ****** a friend over to win" Itd be owning up. At the end of the day you can pile as much reasoning on top of what she did which I don't disagree with but clearly JB feels like his friend ****** him over.

I'm glad Sarah isn't acting like how she was on The Ruins when she let Katie punk her

It's like putting a price on your friendship though lol.

It's like putting a price on your friendship though lol.

Maybe I just look at money differently.  When it comes to friendship money should never marry.  I have friends that I've allowed to borrow money and I knew I would likely never get it back but I care more about the friendship than cash.  I find it ridiculous that a good friends would stop being friends over cash...especially money from a game

Rewatching last weeks episode and I didn't notice the people in the hotel rooms watching from their balcony lmao

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.

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. 

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.

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.

Exactly. People have to realize that there is only ONE winner on these challenges. You and all your friends can't make it to the end and win. You gotta cut people out at some point and we've seen that so many times on this show. This is what Sarah is doing. Cutting Johnny out so she can have a better shot at winning and if he's willing to not be friends with her over it then that shows he wasn't that close to her.

I've read spoilers, but this definitely is going to be a good episode and I'm ready for it. 

Also, Bananas needs to get over this. Like forreal. You play the game for yourself, no one else. Why would Sarah want a five time champion in the final, when she already lost to him before. 

Anyone with common sense would do what Sarah did (Jordan doesn't have common sense as we've seen time and time again) so her "big" move wasn't a big deal to me.

Anger is a natural understandable reaction in that situation, even if Johnny totally deserves what happened and it was the most logical move, so I could see him being mad for a little while but to hold a serious grudge for so long is ridiculous lol is he really that much in denial to where he doesn't see how hypocritical he is? but as said someone else said, cutthroat will always be there HA

Here we go I love how the announcer even says "Hurricane Nia" 

Here we go!

Backpack needs to understand that, although it's painful to be cut out by people that you thought were your friends, it's ok to let them play their game. He doesn't have to hold it against them. He should just understand that that is what they feel they need to do and move on from it. That's what I would do.

Well the way these people play this game isn't exactly filled with common sense if you catch my drift.

Sarah crying like a little weakling. 

sarah, get a grip girl!!

Don't cry Sarah. You did NOTHING wrong.

Being 'loyal' = lack of common sense? Good to know.
Two things he have done this season is not making deal with Jay bc of Johnny and not wanting to send in Bananas.

Ok...well. Stand by your decision. Don't cry about it.
