Also noticed the sly editors not actually showing us Brian hitting the hammer, possibly to hide their shame (too strong, but still) about the situation? Make it seem like hey, maybe Erika hit it?

I'm struggling with this latest episode |

As much as I wanted Brian and Erika to stay (since up until tonight they'd come off as pretty awesome, and even tonight it was obvious they're good
together), I can't help but feel a bit cheated by this latest challenge. There are probably lots of reasons why a F/F team hasn't won the race yet,
but in my mind at least it's never been because of challenges where having a penis is necessary. I mean, even that Kynt guy could've hit that hammer
hard enough. And while Vixen might have been able to as well, I'm still uneasy with the way this worked out.

I doubt Adam would have been able to hit the target but Rebecca would have easily done it.

*first time in the history of the universe that I agree with the dumbshit threadstarter*
Looks like this year, CBS said FUCK IT, and decided that women shan't have a chance this year. May as well cut down to one F/F team, stock up on four M/M teams, and make all challenges male-oriented. Oh, and let's throw in challenges that test all of the females' fears while we're at it. I admit that this season is entertaining, but watching rigged competitions just isn't fun. and just wondering, but why should B/E be penalized for making a task harder for themselves? just doesn't make sense. |

Rebecca has a penis.

sorry but bowling moms were not eliminated because they were females. That task was easily accomplishable. They were just fat and sucked ass.

Whether they'd have won or not -- the Bowling Moms were most definitely eliminated because of a challenge where having a penis (or more specifically, being
a guy) made all the difference.
And to add comment to Dicktatorship's opinion - Chip, was easily as fat and out of shape as the bowling moms. Yet he still managed fine. Men are differently muscled. And that made the difference. |

I felt frustrated, for sure, with the last challenge. The girls gave it a million percent, but just did not have the strength. Only the men did it. That
episode left me uncomfortable.
On the other hand, you just had to smile at the Globe Trotters. |

The Bowling Moms situation may be comparable, I haven't watched that season in awhile so I can't recall. I do remember them actually claiming that
having a man for a teammate on that challenge was an advantage.
Tian and Jaree were worthless. |

What really fucked the Bowling Moms up was the unfair roadblock rule back then.

Riliss wrote:Wait, what? If anything, Tian/Jaree would be the more comparable example. A strength-based RB after the two physically weakest teams had burned their FFs which NO WOMAN HAD DONE BEFORE? To be fair, the Bowling Moms had a horribly structured elimination leg (random clue box, then two charter flights 30 minutes apart, essentially keeping Brandon/Nicole and Chip/Kim in 1st/2nd, then random Detour, then the ascender, then a fairly physical row to the pit stop) and elimination breathing down their necks. And had Tiffany/Maria done the golf from the start when the wind was less of a factor, they probably would've been 4th/5th.

And I'm just saying that there's not a chance in hell that Tian and Jaree win the race anyways, so who gives a fuck?
Bowling Moms made enough good decisions throughout the race that their situation is entirely different.

Although "ring the bell" was definitely gender biased, croquet doesn't require much upper body strength. If they hadn't been such whiners
they could have done it easily.
And that was the stupidest time penalty ever. |

Yeah, they made terrible errors switching back and forth and back and forth. They should have stuck with the "golf" the first time. Meanwhile, I was
pretty surprised that Maria couldn't muster up any more strength than a 90-year-old on her swings with the hammer. I know it was hard to ring the bell but
she didn't look to be trying all that hard or, I guess, her upper body is just incredibly weak.

I guess it's possible they're just retarded, but that seems so obvious.

It was BS... The girls should'a just "missed" the part of the instructions about the bell and did the dance, ate the herring and taken a 30 min.
penalty and STILL have beaten Team Zebra by a landslide.

there are a ton of female teams that would have rocked that shit. mirna probably would have used charla as a club on the strength test.
