    It’s not bad, just kind of douchey. Jordan gets a pass because he’s a badass. Imagine Fessy and Tori doing something like that.

    He had a show late night on some NBC platform a few years ago that didn't work either. He'll be back running T.J.'s Final.

    Yeah I mean props to him for trying to do something else, but he's just not that famous or interesting. He's got a mildly amusing personality, but his future is as TJ's replacement...though who knows when TJ will want to step aside

    I think T.J. likes what he's doing and it's probably a very nice income stream for him....but, the fact that he almost quit a few years ago to be a fire man tells me he's a pretty interesting guy who could step aside at any time due to wanting a change.

    Call your shots before tonight's episode starts.

    Fessy/Kaycee win. CT/Amber surprise in 2nd. Kam is the female from the preview that gets hurt and the only reason Leroy/Nany don't come in last.

    Edit: I also see it is a 2 part final. So seems early to be floating either way

    Bro was essentially wrong on everything he said.

    Amber B did really well as expected. Her and CT dominating .

    Fessy is a massive fucking bitch.

    Nit sure how the eating check point finishes. Do they have to eat it all for their time to stop? I'd give the dessert to Corey/Kam. They are the closest

    Key takeaways:
    • Fessy looking like a straight puss. Love it
    • Amber the best girl runner it appears, she had too much hate coming in.
    • CT still a beast when it matters.
    • Nany worthless as usual
    Feel like it's basically over now, but at worst it's a 2 team race if that injury is legit.

    I want the Fessy bitch news to be true and it looked true watching it, but part of me thinks it’s just a storyline and they are embellishing Kayce’s injury and his apparent deliberation about eating.

    Hope they aren’t and it cements his bitch status; the tan blazer he wears in the “club” already has him halfway there.

    Unless he suddenly becomes Joey Chestnut, I don't understand how you can think it's a storyline. He hasn't even touched anything and the other two teams are almost done.

    I’m kinda sad for Kaycee. But I did get the fessy humiliation I carved. Your partner trying gut this out on a torn ACL and you in the corner pouting like a bitch. Nany right fessy doesn’t give two shits about Kaycee she’s just another way for him to an excuse on why he didn’t succeed.

    Clearly that’s been his mindset his whole life, it’s always somebody else’s fault.

    I mean they were last at the checkpoint because of Kayce’s knee injury. Did he contemplate eating for 10 seconds that they made seem like minute(s)? We don’t know how long this “decision” is. I have a feeling they will be much closer in time to the other teams at the end of day 1 than that scene made it look. Hoping they aren’t though.

    Fessy is a bitch. Let’s not overanalyze this. Feel bad for Kaycee but he’s definitely getting what he deserves. Him being a shit partner and not even considering her when setting a running pace could have contributed to her injury.

    That said, Amber and CT are boat racing this final right now. They’re going to need to collapse down the stretch for this to be close I think.

    Am I crazy or is Amber B is gorgeous? If the big brother caption wasn’t always under her name in confessionals I would think she came from America’s Next Top Model.

    Kaycee deserved a partner that quit on her

    She asked for it, she knew or should have known Fes was a bitch, and she orchestrated with the quitter to ditch Leroy for him. (Plus she was a leader of the group thats sucked the life out of the season up to this point).

    The best part is that even with Kaycee's knee injury, there's no way that Fessy can say shit about whoever wins it not deserving it because you can see the look in his eyes when he saw that food. He wanted no part of it. CT/Amber would have still won the first two stages.

    Love Cory's approach of "I can't deal with this, but I've puked before and I'll puke again, let's get it"

    Amber's puke right after she finished was glorious

    They haven't yet gotten the "huge advantage" TJ promised from the first leg, right?

    I'm with y'all, barring an epic collapse where they literally can't solve a puzzle or somebody breaks something, this one is over no matter what the back half is.

    Also, I'm 100% convinced that Lolo would not have finished this final. She would've absolutely either "rolled her ankle" on some rocks or been unable to eat.

    I wonder how strict production is with forcing contestants to attempt to swallow what their eating. Could easily power chew then to take a drink and pretend to puke.

    In the preview for the episode it looked like Amber's face was bloodied....and I thought that was about to happen when the chicks pounced on her on that rock pile. I was happy it was just her throwing up her blood drink.

    I wonder what Fessy eats in the house. A couple of the comments last night by Leeroy, made me think they knew he was an extremely picky eater and that that part was gonna be a challenge for him.

    Well he already refused to eat anything in that challenge w/Aneesa earlier in the season so that could have been an indication as well.

    and *if* Kam or Leroy were to get a similar decision later on, both squads would undoubtedly hand it to CT/Amber

    (assume Fessy is eliminated)
