"The trainer challenge."
Four questions.

1. Did either or both know that was coming, or was that an acting job we saw last night? (I say surprise.)

2. Did Jillian throw the challenge to put herself in the underdog role again? (It looked like she ran out of gas -- but on an escalator?)

3. Was Bob picking his teams strictly to get a winner in his group, or was he thinking about who he really needed to work with most? (It looked like he was trying to assemble those with strong potential.)

4. Was there any revenge in the picks? (Bob ignored Paul & Kelly after they snubbed him for Jillian in the all vs. one week.)

1. Did either or both know that was coming, or was that an acting job we saw last night? (I say surprise.) surprise, surprise

2. Did Jillian throw the challenge to put herself in the underdog role again? (It looked like she ran out of gas -- but on an escalator?) I don't think she threw it.

3. Was Bob picking his teams strictly to get a winner in his group, or was he thinking about who he really needed to work with most? (It looked like he was trying to assemble those with strong potential.) looked like Bob was picking the heavy teams who usually produced the biggest numbers - not who needed him the most

4. Was there any revenge in the picks? (Bob ignored Paul & Kelly after they snubbed him for Jillian in the all vs. one week.) don't think so - still say he was picking the heaviest ones

2. "RE: The trainer challenge."
1. I think it was a surprise. One that did not make Jillian happy.
2. I wouldn't say she threw it. I might say that she didn't necessarily give it her all though.
3. I am unhappy with Bob. Bob should have stuck with his original team members who picked him.
4. I don't think it was revenge. I don't think Bob is that kind of guy. I do think he was picking winners.

I am unhappy with Bob. Bob should have stuck with his original team members who picked him.

I can't remember his original picks. Which teams were they?

I think they were definitely surprised and they almost looked a little pi$$ed. Don't think Jillian threw the challenge, but was surprised to see her falter.

9. "RE: Bob's picks"
The Blue team was one of his original as were the other two teams that he picked. So he basically picked his original, minus the blue. He should have stuck with the blue team.

I think for sure he was picking those with the most potential...lets face it, Bob needs a win against Jillian this season...there's been much much hype over Jillian (deserved-she is fabulous) but less over Bob who is also an amazing trainer.

5. "RE: The trainer challenge."
Yeah, I tend to agree that Bob needs a win a it seems to be all about Jillian this season (she had more teams pick her in the beginning of the season) so maybe he was picking for pure strength. I did seem so out of character..but I think he is feeling like nobody thinks he can do it and he is not as strong as Jillian...and he has something to prove.

That said, I was still shocked to see the margin of difference between the two at the challenge...and Bob didn't even look winded at the end (unless they edited to show him 30 minutes afterwards!!)
As I said in my previous note in the other thread, all these weekly twists and turns are driving me mental..and I don't think that Bob and Jillian appreciate being pawns in this whole thing as well.

*being pulled out of long lurkdom by TBL!*

First, I haven't watched this show much before this season, so I'm not completely in tune with the Bob vs. Jillian thing. But obviously, it sounds as if Jillian has produced the biggest loser in one or more recent seasons?

I did think the challenge was a surprise to both trainers. I think Jillian may not have given it 100% to win. And who knows, what if she just downed a liter of water and a healthy meal? Maybe she was afraid she'd throw up. (Okay, unlikely but you never know!)

Bob said that the game playing makes him crazy. I think he picked teams that have shown not only their commitment to losing weight, but their success in doing so. Fair or not, he won the challenge and to the winner goes the spoils.

Despite her record, I think Jillian has her work cut out for her this time. I mean, what happened with the yellow team last night? Unfortunately or not, the results vindicated Bob's choices.

I'm totally hooked on this show!

10. "RE: The trainer challenge."
I don't know if you'd call it revenge, but it did cross my mind that Bob was put out and did suspect watering from Britney last week. So this week may have decided she didn't want the weight loss as much as the win and was put off by that.

But I may be wrong, it's been known to happen once or twice.

Tummy: I almost thought that too, but he did pick Dan and Jackie first, and I think they may have done so as well.

Ohhhhh, you're so right. Forgot about Kelly and Paul doing that also.

I'm back to being mad at Bob and feeling sorry for Brit and Bernie.

13. "RE: The trainer challenge."
I think the trainers know more about what's going on than what they lead on about.

I don't have a problem with which teams Bob picked.

But I am shocked that Jillian almost acted like she gave up and then DID NOT finish the challenge. All I could do was hear her yelling at her people.

And to throw another one in....the teams have changed 4-5 times, I'm not so sure they won't change again.

You know, I was thinking that maybe Jillian was sick. She has been wearing her jacket quite a bit, and I thought that if she wasn't feeling so hot she might have the chills. No matter how good of shape someone is in, if they're sick, their butt's gonna get kicked in by a challenge like that.

1. Was definitely a surprise - neither one of them are that good at acting.

2. She did not throw the challenge I don't think it's in her, and she was really upset with some of his choices.

3. Yeah Bob was picking the bigger team - a) they have proven them selves to be good at challenges and two they are going to produce the biggest numbers.

4. I don't think there was revenge involved I think he picked based on strategy. that is it.. and he can work his team harder i.e. with weights etc. more so than the other team. he will produce the larger numbers.
