BTW, I want the brothers to win. They seem nice, and it was amazing seeing them take the risk of water sking with crocs.

I haven't been watching it, but I am the same way, Lily. I judge people by the way they treat animals.

I, also, could never imagine killing an animal. But to disparage someone by calling them a redneck just because they are from the South and like to hunt is offensive. There are plenty of "rednecks" in the great northwest. Have you ever heard of Jack Link's beef jerky? They are from this neck of the woods, and in our local paper there was a spread with one of the sons and the pictures of all the exotic animals he had killed on safari. I was sickened by it. But I think calling him that would give rednecks a bad name.

I thought Pam and Winnie were arrogant and I was not sad to see them go. But if the newlyweds had gone I would have been happy. I don't think that marriage will last too long, the way she henpecks and berates him all the time.

Sleepless. Rednecks are everywhere. I wasn't picking on the south. We certainly have plenty of them around here . They called themselves rednecks on the show, and I wasn't giving them a thought , could care less where they're from, but when he said that remark about killing these beautiful animals they were observing, he's toast to me now ,and I want them gone. I always judge people how they treat animals, and I really started like the country singers when they treated the goats so tenderly, and I think they're from the south. I'm rooting for them or the brothers.

Are Bates and Anthony brothers? I thought they were on the same hockey team, but not that they are brothers...

I really don't know. Maybe they were using the term 'brother' loosely because they play hockey together.

They are brothers.

Sorry, Lily, I got a bit touchy there. They do call themselves rednecks.

I don't want the country singers to win because one of them is John Wayne's granddaughter. I don't think she needs a million dollars.

don't think because the one gal is john wayne's dgd she's rich...you do realize he had several children and 2-3 wives that probably chopped the estate pretty well...

I did not know that. Which woman is John Wayne's granddaughter? Was it mentioned on the show?

Yes Lily she mentioned it when she had to go through the maze in the muddy field with the dog - she said the dog's name was Duke and that was a good sign because her grandfather was John Wayne and his nickname was The Duke.

Not overly impressed with those 2 girls. They are thanking God for this and that but still can't obey the speeding laws and try to worm their way out of it? Yeah, real Christian like.

I liked Winnie and Pam but they made a stupid mistake. I like the hockey players, they seem fun. Not fond of the newly married couple either.

But I found Sunday's show funny for some reason, I was cracking up at the guy hitting the pole with his car and everyone chasing ofter the goats, etc.

Looking forward to next week's cheese challege!

I like the "rednecks" best of all. They seem like a really nice couple.

I don't like shooting animals, but it is a fact of life. If we didn't have hunters in our area, the deer population would increase to where they would all starve. It's imperative to thin the herd. That said, I personally could never, ever shoot an animal (except in self-defense or with a camera--and I do a lot of the latter)...and we do not allow hunting on our land.

It's one thing to cull a herd of deer so they don't starve, another to kill engendered animals in Africa. Elephants are a fraction what they used to be, and I personally without EVER meeting a person, instantly don't like anyone who could kill an animal to mount it's head on a wall. I don't want them to win. After the newlyweds, I want them gone.

Someone commented to a hunter who'd stuffed a game animal's head and stuck it on the wall, cause he "... loved animals" ...

... that she loved her mother ... but hadn't stuffed her head and hung it on a wall.
