Sensational

By: The Sack

Every word out of Camila's mouth was absolutely correct.  The way Easy bitched out again this week is inexcusable and he IS a disgrace to the human race.

TJ echoed the sentiments, but Camila really hammered it home.   I know she has been criticized in the past for being a loose cannon and a little unhinged, but that kind of passion for the game is exactly what this season needed.

After Easy's DQ on the final mission a few seasons back and subsequent weight loss - there is no excuse for pulling the stunt he pulled.

All my blood was in my feet and the water was cold - this isnt healthy.   That was the explanation I got and simply put it wasn't good enough.

Needless to say really good game that The Challenge producers put together.  I questioned endurance, mental, strategy as categories - but that game brought the goods.

The game this week appears to be a trivia contest.  Sacky likey.  Not a surprise that Trischelle punks out.   My lord she is insufferable.  Alton puts it right when he says the dehydration prevented her from sitting on a chair?  C'mon after all the shit shes been talking, she can't pull that.

They start off with Challenge trivia, which is really uninteresting because its something the competitors actually have a chance of answering.  As I've mentioned in the past-  I'd vastly prefer basic arithmetic.

Sidenote - Underemployed, not good.  I might be getting too old to enjoy all MTV shows, no questions asked.  Sad Day.

Impressive job by Frank and Jasmine getting some tough trivia questions.

Geography is next up.   Everyone nailing it.  knight not being sure on District of Columbia wasn't awe inspiring, but he got it.

Jasmine took Ap geography in high school - talk about setting yourself up for failure.  She goes for Liverpool as the capital of England.  Almost too smart of an answer.   Thats a good miss.

Alton guessing Kris Duncan as Kim Kardashian's ex-husband was pretty epic, you get the sense he can't be bothered with team sports.   That answer was legitimately like a sitcom answer from a wife who knows nothing about sports, and combining the first and last names of famous sports people she might know.  Magic Bird?

Rd 4 - sports.  Nany is the last man standing for her team.  She claimed to be a big sports fan during her season.  She gets a  baseball question.... Red Sox are from where? - you have to get that.  And she does.  Nicely done.

Rajon Rondo gets a question about the NBA.  he should be able to nail that.  Confused the suns and the jazz - happens to me all the time.

Frank 4/4.  2 gay guys - 2/2 on sports questions - defying all stereotypes.

Nany last up again.   We are on Currency questions and they are legitimately IMPOSSIBLE.   Nany somehow nails hers.  Good job by her! I'm impressed.  

This is by far the best trivia showing in the history of the challenge.  But just like that Jemmye doesnt even give a guess on the 10 dollar bill..... New Orleans is headed into The Arena.

And after that - Ashley guesses that the challenge has been on 21 continents.  Not a stellar showing.

What we've all been waiting for - the spelling bee.  Narcissistic spelled incorrectly by Chet and San Diego is the power team.  All thanks to Frank.  Disappointed that meat block Zach didn't have to answer a question.

Deliberation time.  Who would have thought that the alliance of every team would eventually have to break up.  Frank is running the game.  And by the look of Jemmye in that lime green sports bra - she is running the buffet.  WOOF.

(*Lep Sack notes the real problem with Jemmye is that she is always drooling** good point)

New Orleans vs Brooklyn.  Very unoriginal.  I would have thrown in that pig Trischelle.

They choose Endurance and Chet guarantees victory.

Nice to get an obligatory Alton 2.0 work out scene.  Once again the only compelling male character in the show is on the back burner.

We know it'll be Sarah and Chet.  I actually think Preston's angular frame could fare well in this weird balls game.  Wondering if we'll have two eliminations in the same episode......

McKenzie's height vs Sara is going to be a major disadvantage.  truly think knight and his cherubic facial features could have beaten Chet and Sarah.

Plenty of time to strategize for this bad boy.  Lets see if anyone came up with some interesting plans.
And just like that mackenzie and preston look completely overwhelmed.  watching preston fumble with those balls was really all i needed to see - this is over.

Cant believe the first heat was only a one ball deficit.  Maybe Presto has got a shot here.

McKenzie really dogging it there.  Brooklyn wins, but Preston was really close to pulling off my strategy of loading up balls near the wall and knocking them over as close to the buzzer as possible.  Preston really gave it a go.  Proud of him.

Bottom line - easy bitched out again and doesnt deserve Devyn's fake yams.  He should not be allowed back on this thing.  Its a joke at this point.

Sad their relationship will no longer be covered, but I'd reckon there will be more drama stirred up as the alliance gets broken up.

More from MJ Saltambuckackia in the morning.

  1. Here's a question for you. After seeing Camilla this season - who's your draft pick of these women: Laurel, Camilla, Emily. I think Emily would be eating the girls on this Challenge for lunch.

  2. The more I think about it, it really isn't fair that San Diego won the trivia challenge after Ashley guessed that the Challenge had been filmed on 21 CONTINENTS. That should really disqualify the whole team.

    Agree with MJ above... Emily is not female, though, so that helps.

  3. TJ put Big Easy in his place, and if he has his way the man will never be on a challenge again. Unless its Battle of the Exes 2, with Devyn and her fake tits as a teammate, being that she will dump Big Easy for Big Easy's grandfather.

    Smart move by San Diego to not throw in Vegas. New orleans would have had no chance against them, and the last thing they want to see is a fired up Alton.
