Our inspiration blogs the gulag, and talks about Ty vs Brandon, all while sandwiched between a Power Ranking for the NFL. This is excerpt:

16. Houston
This week on America's fifth professional sport, "The Challenge: Cutthroat," Ty and Brandon were in the Gulag holding a giant pole and trying to push one another backward past a certain line. Ty dominated the first round, followed by MTV cutting to his teammate Jenn with two Ns, who looked into the camera and said something like, "At that moment, Ty became the powerful, unstoppable athlete I always wanted him to be." See, Ty is one of those looks-like-he-should-be-kicking-butt-on-paper competitors. This was his breakout moment of sorts. You know, a little like the Texans running roughshod over the Colts in Week 1. What happened? Ty ran out of gas in the second round, got knocked out of bounds, couldn't get up, then spent the next few minutes lying on his back as his teammates screamed for him to get up. He never got up. DQ.
Here's the point: It doesn't matter how you look on paper. The Texans have been playing that card for a couple of years now ... eventually, it always leads to them lying on their backs with everyone screaming for them to get up. I don't trust them.
