TAR 20: Joey Lasalla and Danny Horal *Friends*
« on: January 25, 2012, 09:26:06 AM »

 
 
Name: Joey “Fitness” Lasalla
Age: 29
Hometown: Whitestone, N.Y.
Connection to your teammate: Friends 
Current occupation: Trainer/Supplement Company Owner

Describe what you do: I own a supplement company and I help people get into better shape and look/feel healthier.
How will these skills help you win The Race? I know how to pay attention to detail.
Three words to describe you: Motivated, determined and trustworthy.
Favorite hobbies: Going to the gym, tanning and clubbing.
What famous person reminds you of yourself? Jean-Claude Van Damme
What famous person reminds you of your teammate? The Terminator - Arnold Schwarzenegger, when he has his sunglasses on.
What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Landing the cover of Men’s Fitness Magazine in May 2005.
What scares you most about traveling? Nothing… bring it on!
What excites you most about traveling? Trying out new things like exotic foods and meeting new people.
Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on The Race together: We both usually want things done our way. In order to make it far we need to work on being a team and listening to each other’s ideas.
Pet peeve about your teammate: He might party too much. All he talks about is clubs when we go to the shore to meet girls.
What country and place would you most like to visit and why? Brazil – because the women are all beautiful and the beaches look amazing. It’s definitely my kind of place.
What do you hope to accomplish by running The Race (other than winning one million bucks)? Being able to say “I did this!” I want to travel and compete all over the world and develop a closer bond with my good friend.

Name: Danny Horal
Age: 27
Hometown: Holbrook, N.Y.
Connection to your teammate: Friends 
Current occupation: Nightclub Promoter 

Describe what you do: I market and promote several nightclubs in New York and the Jersey Shore. I book the DJ, create the event and persuade people to come.
How will these skills help you win The Race? People look to me to find out where to go and party. I’ll use my persuasion skills to get people going where I want.
Three words to describe you: Self-motivated, athletic and sexy.
Favorite hobbies: Going to the gym, clubbing, tanning and sports. I’m a big New York Yankee’s fan and New York Ranger’s fan.
What famous person reminds you of yourself? Rocky Balboa
What famous person reminds you of your teammate? James Bond
What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Winning a New York State Baseball Championship and playing Division 1 College Baseball at St. Francis College in Brooklyn, N.Y. 
What scares you most about traveling? I’m not scared at all.
What excites you most about traveling? Meeting new people and trying new things.
Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on The Race together: Sometimes when he makes up his mind it is what it is -- even if I have a different opinion.
Pet peeve about your teammate: Once a day at the gym is enough. Joey goes 3 times a day.
What country and place would you most like to visit and why? Australia – because throughout high school and college I did reports on it. It always interested me. 
What do you hope to accomplish by running The Race (other than winning one million bucks)? A better knowledge of the world and a closer bond with my friend

I have to wonder if anyone is actually going to like them. I really can't figure out why they were casted. They already seem obnoxious, self absorbed, etc.

Putting Snooki's trainer is one way to finally convince my sister to watch TAR. :groan: :groan: :groan: Maybe that is why they were casted! :lol3: :lol3: :lol3:

I had to look go up Guidos in this regard...not very flattering.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=guido&defid=585341


The def must have changed since season one!! But I agree, there can only be ONE Guido team in TAR. And that would be the originals!!

If Phil actually has to say "Joey Fitness & Danny" when they check in at Pit Stops, I'm gonna lost it. :groan:

We already have the jersey shore fiasco of a show, and now they cast these two on the amazing race??
 Who's responsible for this casting joke?  They dropped the ball for sure this time

They are not going to be eliminated first because of their physique. They do have the final three material and that bodes...

Not probably going to be a good season for me I guess if they win.

I've had 3 good seasons in a row already.. time for me to bow down and accept the fact/lower my expectation that this season is going to be a bad one.

I am going with a daring prediction that they will NOT make the final three, just based on the vibes they give me that they are not exactly very smart. Perhaps a few first places, but not as capable as Andy and Tommy.. and the twins will beat them.

 :lol: Final Six at least. If they get eliminated, it's probably one dumb mistake which they made. I think they'll also probably do badly on a self-driving leg? :lol:

Peach,

Your second definition gets the essence of "guido." Its an ethnic thing (like Joe Piscopo's "I'm from Jersey") and focused on an Italian-American stereotype.

Hmm...I get nothing from these two. Almost seems that CBS casted them for comic relief, and these two don't seem to be in on the joke (which is ultimately on them).

I like these guys! I guess I'm seriously about the only one! :hides :hides

I get the vibe from these two that they will get to the end and screw up a memory/thinking-based challenge! :lol3:

Joey "Fitness": What country and place would you most like to visit and why? Brazil – because the women are all beautiful and the beaches look amazing. It’s definitely my kind of place.

almost granted, you were 1137.10928179371 miles away from there, I know it's close, but....

(took the closest Rio to Asuncion)

I believe they have a wide network to spread the words of TAR, Fitness and NightClub... so many people....

Why.

Did the amazing race put those night life caps in the intro theme. :res:

Joey "Fitness" and Danny... :oh

I think next leg they should change it to Joey "We'restillherebecauseofmisaandmaiya'smistake" and Danny. Sounds more legitimate. :lol:

I don't think so. If one team member already can't drive stick on the first leg... there's a hell lot of things they can't do on the entire race. :lol:
