The Biggest Loser - Let The Games Begin...

Really? Really? It has started already and the season is only three weeks old. The Game Play has begin and poor Damien (red team) is the first be eliminated because of it. Damn that fake talking Joelle and damn Jillian's team for keeping her.

Last night the players had a temptation (in which Joelle won) which meant that she got to go home and have Bob train her and Carla. Well Carla let Joelle have it for her lack of effort and Joelle just kept spouting out superficial bullshit (I am strong, I am not weak, I will do what I can...ugh, shut up). I will say Carla did not believe a word of it and let Joelle know that she was going to be pissed if she did not get to return to the Ranch.

Back at the Ranch, the challenge was an oldie but a goodie with the players doing a form of jump rope. Of course Joelle was out on the first upswing (and she looked shocked). Tara (green team) won the challenge and won immunity...again!

Finally the weigh in; most players did well but Joelle only lost 6 pounds and Damien 4 which meant that the two of them fell below the yellow line. Now this should be easy, right? Damien wants to be on the Ranch, he has given his best effort and has made friends with the other team members (Joelle distances herself, she saves herself for television I think). Jillian's team even asks Bob's team what they want them to do. Of course it would never be this easy. Jillian's team lies and picks Damien to go home leaving Joelle around for another week. Talk about Game Play! So that's it, Damien goes home and Joelle gets to stay and I will not pull for one member of Jillian's team from here on out. They are dead to me. Harsh I know but don't lie. Shitty way to play the game if you ask me and Damien has to pay the price.
On another note, Dan's teammate Dave better get back to the Ranch quickly. I am not sure that buffets and fried chicken are on the diet (although it would be nice). See you next week. Oh and sorry about the cussing this week, just got a little riled up last night.

The Biggest Loser - Game Play

That Vicky (formerly of the Brown Team) is all about the money and she is not letting anyone stand in her way to get it. I normally pull for Bob's team (just because I love Bob) but as of today I have moved to the Jillian side. Although her inner thoughts and deep "therapist" statements get on my nerves (Watch Renee and Michelle meet in the middle symbolically and physically?) I will be damned if I pull for a team that Vicky, Brady and/or Heba is on.


Last night's episode showed a typical week at the Ranch. The teams worked out, competed in a challenge...actually back up; the Black Team competed in a challenge. The challenge was for videos from home and the first team to walk around a balance board circle twenty-five times. Vicky did not like the prize and quit and the rest of the blue team did not seem to be that motivated either so the Black Team smoked them and won 25 to nothing. Bob was furious when he found out that his team (Vicky) did not even try and gave them all a little lecture about always doing their best.

The weigh in is where everything really seemed to fall apart. The Black Team went first and had a good week. Now the Blue Team; Vicky (yuck), Heba and Amy (Purple) all had good weeks. Then Amy (formerly Red) was up and only lost two pounds. Next it was time for Brady and he only loses three pounds. As he is weighing in Vicky actually smiled. They set it up. Vicky and Brad set it up so that the Blue Team would lose and they could get rid of Amy (Red). Vicky said walking into the weigh in that she would be fine either way because of her alliance and she was. I know that $250,000 is at stake but this is not what the entire show is all about. Aren't you supposed to care about prolonging your life and getting healthy too?



So Amy is out and Phil will be devastated; as will Bob. Something has to happen to the Blue Team (Vicky especially) soon because Karma is a bitch, right? By the way Vicky is the one that allowed her daughter to become obese at the tender age of 4. In her bio it says that she was picked on in school which is why I wonder how she could become the "mean girl" now. Get her off the show soon please. I could not stand it if she or Brady won the money. Be strong Phil without your wife, you can do it.
