    no one would have called his name regardless up to this point. I don't think he should side with either team but go back and forth between the two alliances and try to keep them as balanced as possible. He allowed the Joss/Rogan to get to big numbers when it is to his benefit for the two factions to remain similar sized. Also would allowed him to cut dead weight for the final. Now he's going to be stuck with probably the 2 worst females left in the game

    I feel like CT knows he isn’t going to win a final with how out of shape he is currently.

    He just wants to stay around as long as possible to collect that “per episode” money from MTV.

    An interesting dynamic to this season is that everybody is playing everything as if it’s going to become a singles game soon. They’re probably correct, but if the team’s last longer than expected or have a big impact on the final, some of these folks are going to feel retarded for sending their own best players home.

    CT is dead weight, he had hard time with Diem in one of the finals, now that is he is fat, CT is the anchor.

    I feel like there is a good chance the final is a combo of team/solo challenges.

    I just hope whoever decided to keep people like Kayleigh and to a lesser extent Nany around get punished for idiotic decisions. And sending in their own team and stuff like that.

    I was always team LeRoy but he was talking a lot of shit for someone that hasn’t done anything of note in challenge history besides being the resident house barber.

    Theo and Georgia should have switched sides when they had the chance

    one of the more hateable alliances in recent memory

    It will be interesting to see how this plays out with both Jordan and Tori going to the Brits. Joss has to feel like shit after following what Kayleigh wanted to do in the nominations and then in the next challenge was more worthless than ever. She is hot as fuck, but god she is awful at every single challenge.

    Love Georgia. She definitely should have made the switch to the US in her second elimination. Theo also seems like a fucking cool dude. Hopefully he comes back after the cork incident.

    But the real loser was Tori, who was proposed to by Jordan (and said yes).

    Shameful showing from Cara after the elimination, she made no effort to hide her bitterness and jealousy. The show/Paulie seem to have turned her into a pretty shitty person.

    I was just referring to her general attitude the past couple seasons. Yea, he acted like a normal person and called her out at that moment.

    Jordan certainly plays up his character on the show but him and Tori are worlds more normal than Paulie and Cara. Good for them getting engaged.

    The Jordan side of the team whining about Paulie’s group “hiding behind numbers” was kinda funny. Laurel and co started all that shit did they not? They just lost the numbers and have no choice now.

    Also, Cara has gone from sort of a likable underdog, or at least somebody you could pity, to just a miserable human in a pretty short amount of time. Yikes.

    Her transformation has truly been something to behold. I actually give her credit. It’s obvious now she has always been more fake and playing to the cameras than it ever seemed before.

    How the fuck do all these people not know how to swing a fucking hammer!?!?!?

    Zack and now Theo get smoked by Jordan solely bc they can't/don't know how to swing a fucking hammer. Theo taking these little taps while Jordan just swinging full swings.

    Cara is an insufferable cunt. Can’t believe I used to like her. Had a little respect for Paulie being disgusted by her and going to congratulate Jordan and Tori.

    Fuck Cara and her little alliance I hope none of them win shit

    Why the fuck is MTV denying Theo bc he's got one eye but allows Jordan with one hand.

    Seems pretty fucked up.

    Iirc there’s still a chance he can regain his vision. Don’t want to be liable for further injury or impeding recovery.

    makes sense

    Where are you seeing him sitting out Season 35 is on MTV's end?

    He has pretty bad visibility to light and has to wear an eye patch. He is still in recovery mode and likely will have to have several more procedures.

    Eh. Not being able to see things coming at and such, seems like a decent liability. Jordan seems to still be able to do almost anything with his nub

    Posted above that he failed medical clearance for the next season.

    If he's still healing and possible future surgeries, I get it. Wasn't aware of that. Hopefully he can regain sight. Even if he can't, once healed he should still be able to compete

    There was a rumor posted here that he wouldnt pass the physical. I don't think anyone has posted anything from him stating such.

    Ah yea. Def do not think he could not pass a physical right now just based off how soon removed he is from his eye inury. But I agree, he should/will come back once he gets his situation resolved.

    Theo is going to be on the next episode of Challenge Mania Podcast. He was very candid the last time they had him on, seems like a cool dude. Should be a good listen to hear him dish on WoW2 and his eye deal.

    I want to love this podcast because they get most of the cast as guests and Derrick gives good insight on how things go behind the scenes, but he’s pretty brutal to listen to. His voice is really annoying and sadly he’s kind of an idiot.

    CT fucked up again. He should have paired with Theo/Jenny/Tori and they would have had the same numbers as Joss/Rogan but had significantly better females.

    Has a chance to do it again with Jordan now but guessing he won't.

    I don’t think Cara will ever find the happiness she had when her and Abe were sneaking off to the forest to have animalistic sex. They’d come back to the house with tribal markings (made out of God knows what) and seemed perfect for one another.

    I understand people disliking Jordan but I find myself rooting for him this season because of my disdain for Cara.

    Rogan wants them to be a duo that are equals but he just looks like a fanboy most of the time. Proposal joke was good though

    Caught up

    -Every season needs a villain and Jordan is doing a phenomenal job this year. Last year while he was annoying I liked bear as the villain. This year I hate Jordan and just want him to lose but he’s a tough out.

    -The politics has taken over this season. Yes you want to run with the best players in the final(which seems to be every bodies go to when a good player gets thrown in) but with the alliances if you don’t strike first you’re likely going in

    -paulie/Cara I think made the right move trying to take out Jordan/tori...think the game just got more entertaining with them on opposite sides

    -hate the players who think they are far more important when in reality they are just trying to hide until the final. That’s nanny, Leroy, Ashley, Zack, CT, Joss/Rogan.

    -have to respect Theo where he obviously wasn’t happy about going in but he didn’t lose his shit and try and cut deals.

    -MTV always finds a way to even this stuff out and not let 1 side just run away with this every episode so it’ll be interesting to see the twists they start to pull

    -and im still sad about Turbo. CT hit the nail on the head about Jordan’s “game” he talks a lot of shit and then gets defensive when you are mad he talked to you like a piece of shit
