Never seen The Amazing Race so jeff saying "they've tried an agressive approach and failed... Twice." just made me crack up with zero context.

They did fairly well the first time around, but they imploded spectacularly on their second run.

I once again find myself asking the question I ask every season. Why does the celebrity always lie and backstab to maintain his secret identity even though he has no idea who knows it and it just breeds mistrust? Just stand up and say "Hi, I'm a millionaire professional athlete. I'm a competitor, I'm used to hard work and pain, and I know how to work with a team. And no one will want to give me a million dollars so keep me around."

Jimmy Johnson was upfront and it ultimately wound up being the reason he was ousted.

John Rocker's face resembles that of long-deceased brother, and it's kinda messing with my head. I know he's a jerk, but I kinda want to root for him.

Edit: Oh my god, Nadiya! :doh:

She's going to play herself out of the game, that's for sure. One simply doesn't talk about making "big moves" less than a week in.

The funny thing about Rocker is that he was certified, grade-A goat even before the season started.

I laughed at this. I'm terrible.

John makes a great goat and a terrible strategist, but he's a physical powerhouse.

Edit: And he's almost certainly going home with that idol in his pocket.

There's really no reason to vote Rocker off. He's a moron, legitimately worked hard at camp, great at physical challenges, no threat socially, his partner is no threat, they will not win the million.

He's a perfect sidekick for the most part. They just caved because they're dumb.

Jaclyn is remarkably expendable, has a partner that's a threat who could benefit from her staying and has a big mouth.

The biggest danger with keeping John around was him :words:

your plans. Short of that, he's a great asset.

"We're both fire fighters"

Maybe its because in my line of work we eat our young, let alone our co-workers, but every loving time there's some idiot who thinks their job means an automatic alliance and every loving time it amazes me how stupid some people are.

Kieth had said that him and Jeremy being firefighters was like a brotherhood. Why torpedo the one guy you knew for sure had your back?

Poque posted:

Because he's a huge idiot. There's literally no reason.

He said something like "I need to weed out my own tribe to go further"

So he's throwing the challenge to break their winning streak to vote someone out so his own tribe can go further.

...

Makes perfect sense to me! :pseudo:

# ¿ Oct 16, 2014 01:46

Ghostpilot: Jun 22, 2007; "As a rule, I never touch anything more sophisticated and delicate than myself."

So Keith's idea was that he didn't keep the alliance because he didn't want Jeremy to stab him in the back first.
