Seriously, is it even part of the culture of Netherlands?!?! Strongman? WTF! They should have had the sell the bike or ride the bike task....that would even make sense since that's related to their culture R.IGGED

They couldn't do the golf either. They never made it past the first hole. They should have given 9 or 10 strokes because only the teams with all guys did
it easily in 8.
This season reminds of the the Chip/Reichen season. Boring and pointless. I would've liked to see those little Dutch ladies do the strongman thing. |

I was totally in agreeance about the way the challenges are laid out. Why not just make it a difficult dance? Why was a strength portion required at that
detour?
That golf challenge may have been manageable by other F/F teams... or them if they had hit that challenge first and stuck with it... It is what it is, this race will never be won by a F/F team, unless that team is a steroid ridden lesbian strength/endurance duo. |

The task was brain oriented too.
If Tiffany stepped up on something and jumped down and hit the the activator, should probably would have gotten enough force in to ring the bell. Or, she could have used a running start to get to the bell. BRAINS. Maria should have stepped up and seen that. I liked them but their exit was rightfully deserved. They suck. |

Adding the bell to the dance thing was pretty out of the way and unnecessary. They could've made the task to eat more herring.
It's not even that far to say that the detour was rigged. Maybe another strong f/f team could've done it. But what message does that send? All girls should become bodybuilders? |

You are singlehandedly causing my to change my opinion of this episode with your incessant bullshit.
Fat people shouldn't expect to win the race. Stupid people shouldn't expect to win the race. |

It's obvious the women never had to chop wood.

That strength portion of the dance detour did look hard for them but I saw the meter almost hit the top more than once. They just needed to get more momentum
behind it, I've done it at carnivals tons of times and my arms are skinny as hell.
I feel bad for them to go out this way but I'm glad Team Zebra
survived.

The leg planners were probably surprised Tiffany/Maria made it as far as they did.
As much as I disagree with each detour option having a significant strength requirement... both of the girls were hapless at their approach to swinging the hammer. Momentum, ladies. Tiffany didn't even start taking full swings until about her 60th try, and Maria never put forth a single serious effort. |

As down as I am about what happened to the girls and the unfair challenge, there was no excuse for the girls not doing alright in the golf one and switching
BACK to the strength challenge.

The blonde from the barbie team was hitting the ball in the golf much better than either of those girls, but if Tiffany had been able to swing her club harder they would have done better. |

And Tiffany was the big problem. That was Maria. I feel vindicated about not being able to tell Dan/Sam apart if there's any confusion over which of the PokerGirls is which. |

I thought Tiffany was the Asian one?
I can never tell the same sex teams apart because they always refer to them as teams and not as individuals (and it's obvious with the mixed sex teams) |
