The athletes only had what looked to be a 20' or maybe 25' wide lane to throw in, and if the ball landed outside the lane, it was DNF.

Plenty of room, didn't any of them play baseball or softball in school or were they too busy being eleete? I mean come on, I warmed the friggin bench when I played ball but I could still toss it in from the outfield and hit the cut-off man without an issue.

Almost 12 hours and they still haven't figured out the live stream yet. I've got video now but no audio.

I dislike that I'm so wrapped up in this but it's like passing an accident on the road. Just can't look away. I'm waiting for some dramatic injury to happen. I am getting some LULZ out of it. Like how they're reporting that attendance is much higher than last year yet there still seems to be more exercisers than spectators.
How the fuck are you supposed to get big time coverage if you can't even sell out half of the Home depot center.

Somebody has got to have fried arms on this next stunt and is bound to fall off the ropes.

The gorilla's going to have enough material after this to last until next year's rodeo. Now if he could only photoshop ANYC's tits onto these babes, he could go mainstream.

But, god damn, the 3000m beach trudge was awesome to watch.

Unfortunately, I have friends who still drink the Kool-aid and I want to see how they do. I'm also waiting for a train wreck and a moment of schadenfreude so I can finally turn them from the dark side.

LOL! And he was meant to have been a Navy SEAL too. Although if that was the case, that'd explain why the Greatest Super Power On Earth couldn't beat the North Vietnamese gook fucks in a war involving 500,000 of their finest American troops.

Hell yes. Strongman and powerlifting involve shit that 95% of the populace could never do. @fit's allure is that it can be done by anyone and the marginally fit individual can do good at it with a few months work.... before their SLAP tear.

Watching the gaymes is like going to your local box, only douchier.

Takahashi's Castle begot Wipe Out. Loved listening to it in Japanese until they started dubbing in English. I don't speak Japanese, it just made more sense. Saw only Glen from P&B on Wipe Out, cuz it was the Kanadian version. Glen was the awesome.

Ninja warrior was always good until the Americans were involved. The American trials sucked.

So, I catch the rope climbing on the live feed for X-fit games on my computer. Very disappointed cuz I would have needed my HD TV to watch the young ladies hump the rope.

This is all about being entertained. Usually we only get to hate or mock x-fit. Now, we get to watch folks looking stupid, doing stupid and mock and hate all at once. Excellent.

Given the energy and time wasted on this thread, the whole "why are you idiots actually watching that" ship seems to have sailed some time ago. Let's face it, whether we hate them or are just amused by them, we're all entertained by the hijinks of couch's minions.
