Please have a safe and enjoyable week. We’re still recovering from the Ryder Cup debacle over here, but there’s Major League Baseball playoffs afoot! Go Dodgers! Go Angels! Go #freewayseries! All those other teams can choose whether they want to start paying their players insane amounts of money and buy a championship! This is ‘Murrica, damn it!

I’ll be spending the week watching The Amazing Race, Utopia, SNL, Gotham, and the Dodgers kicking ass.

Okay, I’m gonna go wake up my kid and tell him I love him and I hope I’ll never have to beat his ass in a sumo water challenge. I’m sure that’ll f**k up his night…

I gotta go find a job…Be good, everyone!

  1. Great recap, thanks so much!

    I didn’t like Val or Jeremy to begin with, and I have no doubt that he will absolutely blame JRock for not somehow saving his poor, defenseless wife. There’s going to be a testosterone explosion for the ages when those 2 face off.

    I’m not really connecting with any of the players yet, so I’ll need another few episodes to pick out my preferences. They always show up eventually.

  2. Ok, first I have to pat myself on the back just a little for calling it last week that Josh was going to run to Baylor to do damage control for his vote. Maybe that was a no brainer but I still congratulated myself! 🙂 Moving on, I think Val was an idiot for lying to Rocker that she had 2 idols. He comes clean to her that he’s going to protect her so she lies and says she’s overprotected already! Seems so stupid. If she’d just been honest with him, he maybe would have given her his idol (not that she knew he had one but she should have suspected it was possible). And hey, I can’t see what happens next week but Jeremy shouldn’t expect Rocker to keep Val 100% safe. Me thinks Jeremy’s “I don’t give a crap” about Rockers’ past comments was a bit disingenuous. (did I spell that right?) For some reason, Dale is starting to annoy me, Jon looks like a cartoon character (and kind of like Shoney’s Big Boy), and I swear—Rocker’s girlfriend’s boobs look like 2 balloons about to pop. My final complaint–Jeff’s dumb grandstanding about the other team asking if they could make a deal. I don’t get his point. Of course they wouldn’t ask unless they won and you showed everyone what the prize was before the game is even played. He acted like he was so offended. I like Probst but sometimes he is WAY too arrogant. Ok, I’m done.

  3. Thanks, angelfish, I’m glad you found some humor in it. Sometimes I don’t even know if I’m connecting on some of my jokes. And I agree about Jeremy/Rocker. I think Jeremy will turn on him and reveal his past to everyone on his own tribe, but I wonder how Julie will fare because of it.

    Sometimes your dumb wife’s lies are more than one man can overcome…

    For some reason, I’m liking Baylor, but I get that she could be on the outs. And look what I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGdMgJ-OREk

    Looks like our little crybaby has some hidden talent. Although, I have to say that’s one poorly written song…

    Kinb!…my biggest fan 😉 Yeah, Josh HAD to say something, right, or did he? Could he have just denied it? IDK… And I don’t know if Rocker would have ever given her his idol, he doesn’t strike me as a generous guy… Dale is “meh” but so are a lot of players this season. It’s still early, so let’s see what develops. You recall all the drama with Trish/Lindsey, and the Kass flip, and the shit with X’XXX happened a few episodes in. The real show doesn’t begin until they merge, and by then, we’ll be invested. Thanks for mentioning Julie’s boobs, so I didn’t have to… ;-))) They do look amazing… And might this be our little girl…? http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/22060312_last-vegas-stacey-julie-mcgee-advertisement

    Jeff’s just creating some drama. Maybe he thought there isn’t enough yet so he’s gotta get involved. I see he’s been asking on Twitter for one-liners to improve his dialogue so at least he’s open to new ideas… Thanks!

  4. I’m sorry this has been driving me nuts. Why do you keep referring to this current season as season 28?? This is season 29, and both seasons 29 and 30 have already been filmed since they go with the format of filming 2 back to back, but they won’t be showing 30 until the spring. So casting going on now wouldn’t be for season 30, it’d be season 31 at the earliest.

    For some reason, I’m liking Baylor, but I get that she could be on the outs. And if you wanna see something “amazing,” just go to YouTube and search for “Baylor Wilson, Sticky Situation.”

  6. Pattyc! What have I done?! I see that I called it Season 28 a couple times in my first column. Whoops. Not sure how that happened since I do a lot of Wikipediaing as I write the recaps. All I can do is blame the vodka… Terribly sorry. And I hadn’t heard officially that Season 30 has already been shot, so that’s why referred to getting casting tapes in for Season 30. I did qualify that by saying “quite possibly Season 31” so I’ll use that as my excuse. I don’t want to spoil too much, so if they’ve already shot Season 30, I don’t wanna know about it… Kinda ruins the fun a little, don’tcha think?
