I'm not realy rooting for anyone... can't get vested in any of the contestants.
I believe Daniel has somewhat of an unfair advantage. Even though he's still heavy, he has been eating healthy, and working out for the last several months.
Tracy is for sure a nutcase, and she annoys me to no end. If it wasn't for Coach Mo, I would love to see her below the yellow line. Also, with her medical issues, they should send her home, and have someone else take her place, or have her leaving be in lieu of an "eviction."
The dinner at the Mexican restaurant was fun, and I was somehow expecting Jillian and Bob to be eating / drinking some very tempting food.
The decision to send Julio home was the right one, I believe. Maybe not from gameplay, but in a team-of-1 vs team-of-2 eviction, I would probably always make the sacrafice of one, to "save" two.

I don't see it giving him a big advantage, he's already lost a good amount he'll hit peaks sooner. The only thing he has is he was in better shape to start, but they are all eating good now, they also have the excessive fat that he already lost.

Tracy drives me insane. She's got the crazy pigeon eyes all the time and she's totally nuts.
Daniel is still bugging me, too. I don't know why I didn't like him last season, but I finally figured out why (other than carryover from last season) I don't like him this season. It's like he's the teacher's pet! He's always piping up with some comment like he is an expert or as if to say "see how good I am doing Bob/Jillian!"
Dark haired pink girl is driving me crazy, too. She is just obnoxious. :)
Also, all the women are driving me nuts with their makeup, although this isn't new this season, but the pink team is really bad about it. Yes you're on national tv, but your makeup looks like crap after you've been in the gym for 5 hours... why are you even bothering to put it on.
Right now, blue team, green team, blonde pink girl, and Coach Mo are the only ones left that I am ok with. I don't mind the brown guy, either. Poor Coach Mo, though, I bet he's wishing he didn't get stuck with Tracy.

I also can't stand crazy eyed Tracey, I think they are doing something behind the scenes to make sure she loses weight to stay on the show after all the drama helps the ratings.

They should put green fireman with Mo. Let the two ladies go home.

I loved that as soon as the zero popped up for Daniel, Allison said something like, "Nice gameplay" and everyone else seemed to agree with her - except Daniel! :)
Tracey reminds me of a neighbor I had - total nutcase in denial. She was a disaster, but refused to see that anything she did was wrong in any way. Tracey's not quite to the degree that my neighbor was, but I see some of the same "qualities".
I don't mean this to be mean, but can someone explain to me what's up with Julio's mouth? Is his upper lip numb, or his tongue is too big for his mouth or something? I was disappointed when they kept him over Alexandra (I think that was her name), so I can't disagree with getting rid of him now. (By the way - that last part had nothing to do with his mouth)
And nothing against Coach Mo, but that purple team needs to be gone right now.

I think I once dated a skinnier version of Tracy. :eek:
Could she really be like that all the time? We are only getting about 90 mins (without commercials) of a 1 week period. Maybe she only has those crazy eyes for a couple hours a week? She is relentless, don't forget. Remember how she pushed herself the first week and how she keeps going and going and going. Even losing weight without exercising... She is driven, even if she is crazy driven. I seem to remember Tara coming a little close to the crazy line a couple times, but Tracy is clearing crossing it. Maybe it is her idea of very advanced game play? I think Moe may have had the chance at going the route of the previous season's godfather, but Tracy has clearly blown that for him.
Tracy is married isn't she? :(

I tend to pull for the people that I think will look really good when they lose a lot of weight. I think this season I want the blonde pink girl to win.
I think what is creepy about Tracey is that she shows so little emotion as people are screaming at her and hating her.

Julio looking to lose another 100 is really a holy grail.
I could never watch this show live. I get through it within an hour. I blast by the last-chance-workout. And of course all the crying in the end. That drives me more crazy than any contestant.

It's nothing against Abby. It's simply that I feel bad that green fireman and Mo have to do the challenges alone. Although green fireman showed that that was no handicap for him last week. I just don't Mo to go away...Maybe we could give Abby a second chance next season because of her injury?

I think last week I agree with you about Daniel. This week I noticed a lot of "good job" from him to his partner. I know you want to support your teammate, but it either didn't sound sincere, or it sounded like he was saying it too much, which was annoying.

Although Julio is still big in the update there was a huge difference in his face. I always knew he had a handsome face, which you can really notice now, but when he first arrived at the ranch he looked his face was veery swollen, and not just fat.

All I can say this wk is - WTF is up with Tracy??? Those looks she gets on her face are more freakish than her entire mentally unstable personality.
I continue to feel badly for poor Mo. I was hoping the couple w/b voted off instead of Julio, but glad to see how well he is doing.

Yes, exactly. It doesn't sound sincere at all, it sounds like he's saying it so that the cameras will catch him being an awesome partner.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that's picked up on that teacher's pet, phony nice-guy vibe.

I thought it was better odds for everyone else to vote off an entire team of two instead of just one person. I think Julio might have been a bigger threat although Danny is huge and could lose a lot of weight I figured Julio could probably lose a lot of weight and win some immunities down the road.

Personally, I think you're seeing something that's not there. Nothing in Daniel's background would lead me to believe he was anything but sincere. Remember, he's a kid basically. Hard to believe he's quite that jaded and Machiavellian.
I think he feels badly that he failed his last partner and he's trying to make amends.

I just used his as the one I answered. I think you're all seeing something that isn't there. Time will tell. Maybe I see what I want to see.

You all? :confused: Maybe you're not seeing what we're seeing. Just like any other show, say TAR, where someone people like one team and others find them very annoying.

it was his partner that failed him not the other way around.

I dont think Daniel is faking either. I think he is young, and maybe hasnt had enough friends to have good social skills. I dont think he failed his last partner. Dave was one of the most worthless people that have been on this show.
There are not a ton of people I like this season. I like the fireman. He has a lot of heart. He won one challenge, and could have one this weeks, but it seemed he dropped for Daniel.
Moe used to be a favorite, but this week just kind of weakened that for me.

Anyone know what the thin black band on Coach Mo's leg is for?

I think it's to help with joint/knee pain. I've seen people wearing them there and above the elbows.
