1st Round: CT
CT won for the first time last season, so winning twice in a row might be a long shot, but in general, CT is a volatile contender, and the "free agent" style of this game may work to his advantage. He has the strength and skills to do well in the challenges, as well as get under people's skin and rub them the wrong way. I hope this translates into some fighting points. CT has had his way with the ladies in the past, but I somehow feel this will be a dry season in the love department. I was debating picking Zach here, but I'm hoping CT's experience will give him a leg up on strategy. Finally, two words that will always paint a lasting picture in my mind: Johnny Backpack
2nd Round: Nany
I was a big fan of Nany since her Real World season. I picked her this time because she seemed to be all over the trailer. Fighting and making out all over the place. I sense a lot of drama for this girl plus I think she can handle herself in the challenges.
3rd Round: Johnny (not the Backpack)
I was all ready to pick Theresa here, but then I started reading the MTV bios again and rookie fresh-faced Johnny kept standing out. I think he will be underestimated as a rookie, but with some fellow Portland cast to give him support, I think he will be a surprise in the challenges. Plus the bio hints at a love connection. Rob the cradle ladies!
4th Round: Jessica
We're scraping the bottom here. I think I picked Jessica based on the bio too..."she just might shock everyone." She seems like some princess, so yea I hope she does shock me and make it far this season. Plus I think she gets some Dustin lovin.
Reactions to the first episode:
Theresa has mad basketball skills! Now I am really kicking myself for not picking her. My team members were all on the winning black team! Woo hoo! And Jessica does shock everyone by dealing with her fear of heights and making it across the rolling log first. This girl has balls! I am pleasantly surprised. Both Jessica and Johnny have hookup potentials already stirring. The La Toya vs. Jemmye elimination was so intense! I don't like La Toya but I'd be afraid of her if I were those other girls. She proved herself for sure. And poor George losing 2 people...at least you can draft again! I realized I'm the only East Coaster now in our league and it's so hard to keep my mouth shut for 3 hours!
I watched the first episode with my boyfriend. I leave you with a few sound bites from him -- "Aneesa looks like a busted up Tyra Banks." and "Jasmine - she's a 5."
