Ya know, I have been ragging on Chris for several weeks now, but yet I never show you a picture of him. So I thought maybe I should finally share one with you. here ya go
Yep boys and girls, that’s his mug shot from this past weekend. I love TheSmokingGun.com. You can read all about his arrest here. The gist of though is
“…was popped following a disturbance at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa, Florida. Shelton was arrested at 3:25 AM by Seminole Indian Reservation Police officers and booked into the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Department lockup at 4:14 AM, according to records. After posting $250 bond on the misdemeanor rap, he was released from custody shortly after 10:00 AM. Cops allege that a “loud and inappropriate” Shelton–who, of course, was spewing profanities–got into a beef in the hotel’s lobby, and refused to pipe down at the request of officers. Shelton, who had a drink in his hand, was apparently peeved over his inability to get a wristband which would gain him access to Hard Rock bars.”
Poor, poor Chris…let us laugh in amusement shall we?
Now, let’s say by some oddball chance he is one of the final 2 on the show. Trump doesn’t make his final decesion until the live finale. Do you think this might count against our buddy Chris? Yeah…I think so.
Why is Chris still there? Why why why???? Yes, Angie choked during the presentation, I agree.
However, this is a team that was already a person down and one of the team has to go back to Best Buy to find the credit card he lost? And not only that….he was gone 2 & 1/2 hours!
So here you are, the team lost, your Donald Trump and his cronies, you have a choice between Angie, who choked, and Chris who is a moron (Alex wasn’t even really a consideration). So do you choose the person who has flubbed up badly once or do you choose the person who has flubbed up almost every single task?
I don’t know what is going on here, but it makes no sense how Chris has survived this long…no sense!
How? Someone just please tell me how a tribe can lose every single immunity challange. I am thrilled Stephanie survied the lame “start a fire” challange to decide which would leave, but beyond that….what a painful, painful episode.
Net Worth was down 5 to 3, so Trump told Net Worth to choose someone from Manga Corps to join them. They decided on Alex. Alex is one of those guys you know he’s on the reality show, but he has done nothing to stand out and make himself noticed. Oh well.
Both teams had to go to work for Domino’s Pizza and come up with a new pizza style. Both with a meatball inspired pizza (gee, sure that had nothing to do with Trump saying he likes meatballs) and then they would spend 6 hours the next day selling the pizzas. Team to makes the most wins. Congrats Manga Corps.
Overall this was a sleep inducing episode except for the verbal, almost physical, fight between Chris and Alex. Yes, Chris was trying to give up chewing tobacco, but that is never an excuse to physically threaten a co-worker.
At the Boardroom, Trump did confront Alex on several subjects, but in the end he fired Stephanie for her management skills. WRONG DECESION! Chris needed to go weeks ago, he is just getting worse and worse.
This has become in exercise in pain each week. Koror killed a shark and found the biggest clam I’ve ever seen. They are eating like kings. They also won the reward challange so they got food from that also. They are eating better than some people I know stateside with a job!
Immunity…well…immunity was just embaressing. It was solve a giant puzzle. Why in the world Ulong chose Bobby Jon to be their caller will be a mystery for ages to come. After a half hour he finally gave up and switched out with Stephanie. Amazing how much progress they made once she was the caller, but by then it was too late. So again, Ulong heads to tribal council.
At this point, the only person I care about staying is Steph because she is actually a good player. They got rid of Ibrehem, though I think Bobby Jon is the one who should have gone. Oh well…does it even really matter at this point?
Challange time was interesting this week. The teams were to put together an instructional demonstration for The Home Depot of something customers could build. Ok…not being handy myself, I could see where this would be a problem for some of the team members, but was it fascinating to see how it effected each team.
Net Worth – All the team members were gung-ho except for Erin, who was upfront from the get go that she had no clue how to do things like this. There was plenty of other things she could have done, but she seemed to think her lack of tool knowledge just excused her from the whole thing. The rest of the team was jazzed though about their project which was a movable Kitchen shelving unit.
Manga Corp – Craig was project manager, and while he was enthusastic, he seemed to have no easy way of communicating his thoughts to the rest of his team. And none of them were excited about his choice for the demonstration which was just a simple storage box.
So when it came to demonstration time, how did the teams do? Well Net Worth bungled everything about their demonstration. Assembled it incorrectly, didn’t involve the audience and took to long to do it.
Manga on the other hand, who were not hyped about their box project, got into it when they saw how excited the kids got about it. They wanted to be involved and do it with their parents. This in turn jazzed the team, and they performed much better in the actual crunch time.
Winners….Manga Corp. Even though the team was not excited at first, they had to admit Craid stayed true to his vision and it paid off. And HUGE kudos to Kendra for even saying the only person on the team who deserved the reward was Craig. Wow…a player who admits they screwed up. Good for you!
In the boardroom it was refreshing to see George and Carolyn bluntly told Trump that Angie, the project manager for Net Worth, did not deserve to be fired even though she made some poor choices. Wowzers…go lackeys!
So in the end, Trump bluntly told Angie her butt had been saved by the lackeys and it was down to the two she had brought back in with her…Erin, the slacker and Chris the hot-headed tobacco chewer. How do we know this about Chris? Well his team constantly reminds you he is a hot-head and Trump freaking obsesses constantly over the chewing. GET OVER IT TRUMP! Yes, it is disgusting, but there is more going on here. Like all your personal habits are wonderfil *coughhaircough*
In the end, Erin and her slacking ways went…no big loss…adios!
Oh, and on a side note, the Home Depot they went into at the end to announce the winner is on 23rd street in New York City. It used to be the building that housed Hasbro Toys NYC offices and Toy Fair showroom…..that hurt to watch. I loved that building, and have some really fond memories of that building. Oh well…time moves on.
I hate recap episodes…what a waste of a week! Yes, we got to see extra clips of the Apprentice’s being cry babys…NOTHING NEW THERE! Oh well….guess nothing to really say until next week.
Mark Burnett is an amazing, amazing bastard! Both teams go to tribal council, only one gets food and the losers have to watch the winners eat? OUCH!
The challange was pretty tame…go out on a raft, dive in, bring up a Sake bottle, first team to 6 wins. Not a huge deal. Unless your name is Ibrehem that is. He went down three times and was never able to get a bottle….*slaps forehead*. So again, Ulong falls behind. They almost caught up when Ian from Koror couldn’t spot the bottle.
So off to tribal council both tribes march. Koror first where they vote off Willard. Not a big surprise, he couldn’t contribute much. Then Koror moved over to the jury side, had stew and biscuits and watched Ulong have their tribal council.
Low and behold though, Mark Burnett stikes again! Before Ulong can vote, they are told Koror will get to give one member of Ulong immunity. So who do you think they choose? Why Ibrehem of course….d’oh! Talk about a way to screw over the other tribe.
So with only 4 tribe members up for vote they end up in a tie between Bobby Jon and Angie. I thought for sure Bobby Jon would go, but for what ever reason Stephanie voted for Angie in the second round. WHY??????????
Oh well…it’s not like I really expect to see any of Ulong there at the end of the game anyway.
Been a long weekend folks, but here I am finally with my weekly whining about The Apprentice.
So it’s time for the corparate reshuffling to make the Book Smarts and the Street Smarts work together. Several changes were made, but as each is booted, I will tell you which side they were originally on.
This week each team was sent out to talk to an assortmant of famous rockers such as Barenaked Ladies, Lil Kim, Little John, Moby and so on and get them to donate items for a charity auction on FUSE TV for the Elisabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. Each team talked to different musicians and the prizes got to be pretty wild. (A week on tour with Moby for example) In the end Manga Corp (the former all book smarts team) won with a total of $21,654 to Net Worth’s (the former all street smarts team) total of $11,325. Happily all of it went to an excellent cause.
So what caused the loss? That’s easy, one word, John. Formerly of Street Smarts he had one concern, and one concern only, in the meeting of the celebrities and gabbing with them. He was rude, ballsy and all around unproffesional.
When it came town for the boardroom I did get concerned that Chris, the project leader, was going to go in usual style because he kept insisting on raising his voice to Trump and his cronies. Never wise. In the end though the right person went.
I…just….what…how…can…any tribe…be…this FREAKING STUPID? I am not even going to mention Koror this time…It’s pointless!
Ulong, with the exception of Angie and Steph, should just be lined up and shot. So when they did lose immunity….AGAIN….why didn’t they kick out James? Yes, Kim does nothing, but at least she isn’t a screaming, bossy pain in the butt!
Even Jeff Probst mentioned Ulong is setting a record for a losing streak. *bangs head repeatedly against desk* This is just painful to even watch at this point.
