Should have been CT. No idea what these fkn people are doing. If it were Johnny Bananas, you know they would have tossed him in. Can't decide if that means Johnny is the GOAT or if CT is the GOAT.

Disagree. For years and years people let Bananas essentially coast to the finals. His elimination record is putrid and there is no way he wins so many seasons if people had targeted him. I, of course, couldn’t stand JB and it used to irritate me endlessly when time after time people would make “safe” votes into eliminations instead of sending in the multi time champion who had a history of screwing people over.

Yeah, maybe that's how Johnny got to 3 or 4 wins but he got to 7 or 8 titles, or however many he has, by owning the house politically and winning so many dailys.

CT's only been thrown in 11 times, which is just insane. Johnny has more than double that. Both of them have losing records in eliminations, BTW. Johnny = 42% and CT = 45%. Take away Johnny's "guess the cart weight" dumbest loss ever and his % is better than CT's.

I guess they were instructed not to pull the rope like a tug of war? Cory for as good an athlete as he is, just isn’t very good at this game.

Sucks that the josh show continues.

Real stupid for the emerald team not to vote in CT. You have to take those shots.

Hope they switch things up with another twist because this is getting pretty boring. Although Kyle back to ruby is funny.

I think they had to keep their hands on the end where the rope was doubled over. TJ said something about whipping the rope to make them fall or drop the rope.

Devin said, his team and CTs team had a deal not to vote vets off each others teams. I agree though, **** that and vote CT every time. Cory said he was leaning CT and Nelson talked him out of it. Also supposedly part of the reason Cory was on the outs with vets, is he wanted to target CT early on and they said no. TLDR; Cory is the only one with a brain.

I think the footing was too tenuous to just beast somebody of somewhat comparable strength.

Cory is really good at most comps, he's just a dummy. Can't do puzzles and can't out-think anybody socially or in competitions.

I loved that Cory's strategy was, let Logan do work and burn himself out. Then immediately starts swinging the rope like a mad man and gassed out. Lol

I think CTs big azz would have struggled in this too. Devin and the girls on Devins team should vote him in. He loses good your team gets stronger. He wins, he takes Josh or Pirate Jordan's spot, and your team gets stronger.

Another thing with CT is people always make the excuse "if he wins he will come after me" But the guy rarely has an alliance, let alone an alliance that can "come after you" Josh and Devin have the majority, by a lot right now.

That's the biggest knock on CT's legacy. Been on the show for 15 years and he has basically nobody in his corner. CT avoids eliminations because people are afraid of him competitively and Bananas avoids eliminations because people are afraid of him politically (and there is some competitive fear there, too).

I think pound for pound Wes, Jordan, and CT are the best. People feared and targeted all three. Largely accomplished what they did minus alliances.

I’m of course discrediting the political aspect of the game which is huge. And JB is great at that.

I’m shocked CT has only been voted in 11 times. Does the dumb ripped carabeaner one count as a loss? Or the time pansy Adam couldn’t run up the hill at the end after running the balls the wrong way in the beginning?

I guess what I like about the three I mentioned is they had confidence and backed it up. People feared them. And as such targeted them. Whereas people foolishly were fine letting JB coast.

Ah f it. I’ll never give JB credit. Glad he’s gone.

Also, I call Coreys bluff about wanting to call in CT. It’s easier to say that afterwards.

The rookie was the easy and clear vote. Unless it was an elimination similar to what Corey beat Darrell at recently - the one focused mostly on speed. If it’s that - then yeah I see him picking CT. Otherwise he’s fos.

Speaking of - this kind of illustrates to me how dumb Josh is. Josh should’ve known that his rookie buddy couldn’t be protected - he was going in regardless. So just say his name, and don’t upset the vet alliance.

Another bogus loss for Johnny was the Banana backpack. The deck was completely stacked against whomever went against CT first. I can't believe that was even an elimination, but it made for the best moment in the show's history, so **** fairness, LOL.

Yeah CT has basically had Diem a few seasons, Cara a few, and sort of Wes a few. This season might be his best social wise, even though when they vets break down, alliance wise he's probably toward the bottom.

Yeah, he's doing a good job laying low and pulling a few people under his wing. Emy would die for him, so there's that. You may have already made this point, but he won out of shape last year, shows up in shape, and everybody is like "nothing to worry about there." It's just crazy.

I would toss Landon in the mix too, also never had allies really, except people actually liked him. Lol

I love Wes but I think hes a bit overrated. Hes either god tier politically or worse than Jordan politically. See Fresh Meat 2 for examples of both. Lol

Wes was his own worst enemy. He has some incredible political skills and he's a pretty good competitor, but he'd rather be the show than win the show. It's great TV but he consistently made himself into a big, orange target.

Also I agree with them needing to switch the format. First it was the rookies being to dumb to split up Vet/Vet teams, now it's elimination winners being to dumb to join Devins team. I think they should go individual now.

If Jordan had both hands he might be 100 percent in eliminations. Dude is probably the biggest beast ever on the show outside or Derrick and CT.

Derrick was a scary little wolverine. The time he went against the body builder muscle head who was almost three times bigger than him was hilarious. Dude had no idea what was about to hit him and reality sunk in real fast as Derrick started whipping his ass.

Jordan, Wes, and Devin all fall into the same category for me: I don't love any of them but I love them on the show so much. If I went to college with them:

Wes would be my buddy but he'd be the buddy we make fun of the most behind his back.

I could see being tight friends with Devin. He's the guy in the crew that is an ******* but he's our *******. We probably wouldn't run in the same circles and never meet.

Jordan and I would know each other from working in a restaurant kitchen. We'd be cool but we'd never hang.

I'm pretty convinced Derrick just loves pain. Lol Jordan just has zero fear, which is sometimes his biggest downfall, but also makes him really fun to watch.

I grew up with a guy very similar to Devin, but with a touch if Pucks craziness, so me and Devin would probably be good friends.

College aged me is 100% fighting young Wes. Lol

College aged me and Jordan are too much alike. We are probably good friends that talk sh*t to each other 24/7, that occasionally have fist fights and are immediately cool again.

Funnily enough I've seen a ton of cast members talk about how cool and laid back Jordan is off the show. Evidently weed is a huge factor. Lol
