Battle of the Seasons: Fresh Meat - Cara Maria, Eric, Brandon, Camila

I am not liking Camila this season!

Why because she tries to handle her completely thrown together, dysfunctional, dead-weight team or because she is one of the very few people there who didn´t feel like kissing SDs a** ...like*cough* Jemmye *cough* Knight *cough*....etc...*cough* However, of course you are entitled to your own opinion.. just saying..

Won't we get an "official" first post from the mods? ;)

With the large batch of newbies this season, I'm starting to view these guys more as "real" veterans (including Sarah). Pretty cool, actually. ^_^

Honestly I feel like these 4 have no place on this particualr challenge. If BMP couldn't have put together any other team then they should've just left it at 7. I want them to lose.

For once I find Camilla okay this challenge she seems like is the only one trying to have the team stay together. No comment on CaraMaria/Big Easy/Cowarly Brandon.

I agree with you 100% I feel like there is a huge sense of entitlement on their team and I'm not really sure why. Camilla is the only one who won a challenge. It's BS that easy and cara didn't go in. They are the weaker of the 4.

Hm ok, Brandon always bites the bullet. He always goes in, for once he stands up for himself and that's cowardly?

You mean Brandon? Easy went in both times. And Cara went in the first round, I thought it was fair that Camila went in the second time. xD

Big Easy is hella funny he has like this new confidence im so many pounds thinner and I'll do this and that and in the end he ***** it up he should face it and never come back the challenges aren't his thing :)

He should have gone in. No one cares what he did last few challenges, that doesn't affect the current game being played. Especially if they wanted to take out Danny and Mel. Fortunately for Brandon, that happened anyway (E got lucky it wasn't a normal endurance match). If he pulls the same thing the next time Fresh Meat is sent to the Arena, that is pathetic.

Yeah Brandon really needs to go in next time. He's the only one on his team that hasn't seen the Arena.

If I were Brandon I'd argue it every time to NOT go in too. Risking him and Camila is stupid. Eric is a liability and I'm sure if CM or Camila had to pick only one of the guys for the rest of the Challenge, they'd pick Brandon every single time. Brandon > Eric. Simple as that. If Casey were on the team with say, Diem or Ev, Casey better have her *** in that Arena even on the days her team was safe.

All of them are a bit cowardly. Obviously they are not liked, and so that means they might have to go in a couple of times each. Personally, I think volunteering to go in this time would have been smarter because I would much rather go in against Melinda and Danny than against anyone else really.

No I mean Eric. He went in the first time because he lost it for them. Cara did get screwed over, but no way I would risk losing Camila over Cara or Brandon over Eric.

You are 100% correct. This is why SD sent those 2 in. They figured they could take out Camila by sticking her with Eric because she is good. Great move on their part.

Thank you, and I agree, genius move on their part Also, Random thought: Eric lost to Luke in a fly swatting Gulag LOL! I love Luke

I find myself rooting for this team, although they are clearly the oddballs/misfits/leftovers and just thrown together last minute because it was all they could grab in that short time span. I knew no matter who was paired with who from Fresh Meat they were gonna be able to take out Danny and Melinda hah. Those two have just not impressed me on a single challenge and they've both been on multiple ones. Melinda isn't good and Danny can keep up and be average on his good days, Easy has size, both Fresh Meat girls would beat Melinda in anything, and Brandon is always good. So yeah I think it was a good choice for them to be thrown in because maybe since they just went in two times in a row they'll get at least a week break. However, a week or two break is all they'll get because they are looked at as the ones to throw in, I lol'd when Camila was mocking Frank for trying to shhh her, shut UP I'll root on whoever the F I wanna root on, stop bein a wuss. I agree with the decision to throw Easy back in because who cares how many times he goes in he is the biggest liability on the entire challenge besides what? That one girl on the Brooklyn team maybe, hahahaha. They are both just the anchors.

In the best interest of the team the rest should collectively vote to throw him in always as he is a massive liability in a final challenge. This may not be fair for Easy but it's collectively in the best interest of the group. (minus Easy)

In theory that sounds great, but it won't happen. Both Cara and Camila know that there is a huge chance that if they go in there with Eric they might go home. I know he won 2 in a row, but he is bound to fail. I wouldn't want to be the sacrificial lamb If I were one of them.

If I were San Diego, I would have picked Brandon over Eric to go in. Simply because if Fresh Meat goes to the final, who do you want running it? I'd have a better chance of winning the final if Eric was on their team. The fact that Brandon said he paid his dues was bull****, how has he paid his dues more than Big Easy? Pretty sure Big Easy has done more challenges than him. I'm starting to think Camilla and Brandon are purposefully trying to send in Cara Maria and Eric in and are just making excuses. I think they want them to be sent home. Its possible they think they'll have a better chance with just the two of them...also more money is split in the end with two people.

The odds of Fresh Meat seeing the Final with Big Easy on their team are very slim. In theory, it is a great idea, but they will have difficulty avoiding last place. When you see a ton of elimination rounds, you will eventually get beaten.

I don't know... On one hand, I agree: his excuse was bull****, I mean it would be ok in a big team, but there's only 2 of them there. On the other hand, I don't think he should've gone in this time because Big Easy had to prove himself, I mean his win last week was served to him on a silver platter. If I had to push a chick who weighs +70lbs less than me, I wouldn't consider that an accomplishment. But I do think Brandon should go in next time, because Big Easy is starting to pay his dues.

I think they sent in Camila with Eric in hopes that Camila would go home. Personally, I would have sent in Brandon & Cara Maria because I would always send in the stronger guy with the weaker girl. Though Camila & Cara Maria are relatively comparable IMO

I think it's crap that Camila refuses to send herself in just because she sees herself as the stronger competitor. Does she expect Cara to volunteer herself every time? And IMO Camila isn't that much stronger than Cara in the first place. And on top of that, Camila is arguably the main reason Team Fresh Meat got sent in with her godawful social game. I also highly doubt that Brandon would conspire to send Cara in (even if he sees her as a weaker competitor), because those two are relatively close.

Looking at the daily challenge.. SHE was the one who saved the vets *****...CM had the chance to beat Marie, and she failed to do so while Camila pulled in the win. Also think logically... Brandon was not going to go in any way (you see, he did indeed refuse, plus he knew SD were not gonna send him in)...meaning she was going to be going in an ENDURANCE elimination round with BIG EASY, that sure sounds promising, right?! On top of that while CM is only half of a competitor she is, CM INDEED probably has better endurance.... Now, would Brandon have come out and said, "Let's do this!", that would have been a completely different story, I believe...

Correct--Camila came up huge for the vets

She was still an obnoxious b***h and pissed off Frank...the guy in power. They got sent in regardless.

Yeah if you think about wanting to send Camilla home I guess it was better. If it was a real endurance test perhaps Eric wouldn't have been able to pull it out and Camilla would have gone with them. But in the same vein Cara Maria and Brandon by themselves still make a better team for the final. I do have to disaggree with Cara being comparable to Camilla. Camilla has one thing over Cara and thats a strong mental game. Shes mentally tough. Shes a bad *****. Cara is constantly questioning herself, where as Camilla goes in with the mindset of I'm better and will win. which to me makes Camilla better.
