Canaan was physically trying to push Mika down the slide against her own will.
--- End quote ---
That was just once and a brief slight moment. He would have tried ANY method in times of desperation like this. He didn't TRY IT the whole time you see.
--- End quote ---
And why did Mika scream "HELP ME!"? It was definitely not because of what FT&BE were doing to her.
--- End quote ---
Definitely you see it as a team dysfunctional issue. I'm NOT a fan of Mika and Canaan but you see, each team have their own issues and i see and understand Canaan's frustration and if i put myself in Canaan's shoes i actually felt sorry for him to have a teammate like her.
My POV here is that FT and BE shouldn't have taunted another team because that is just not the right thing to do.

I was an extreme Ron hater till he changed for the better. I have a soft spot for people who change in their attitude, because i know how hard is it to swallow down your pride and admit that you've been so wrong and nasty. :lol:
And Christina's such a nice woman to not love. :tup:

--- Quote from: Dånooky on February 19, 2011, 07:37:39 PM ---My point is, both teams wanted to get ahead. FT & BE chose to try and verbally discourage Mika from going down the slide (which is what she wanted) whereas Canaan was forcing her, in a way that managed to scare her even more. I don't see why you would consider FT&BE's strategy to be much worse.
--- End quote ---
Both are actions which i will not agree to, but as i've said before.. i think FT and BE's one was much worst because they should just mind their own business and not taunted Mika.

Ron taunted his daughter through most of the race. Where are other instances of FT/BE taunting anyone. So far you only cite one instance?
Prophet:
About the taunting other teams (and really the whole issue) Coutzy's post has a great perspective.
--- Quote from: Coutzy on February 18, 2011, 07:31:57 PM ---I don't know what everyone thinks was so bad about the globetrotters trash talking. They knew coming into that task that they were last, and needed a small miracle to stay in it. It's not like they physically pushed her off the slide so they could jump in first or anything like that.
What I don't understand even more is why people love Rob & Amber, who made a race career out of trash talking and psyching out other teams, yet hate the globetrotters for exactly the same thing.

Besides like Rox said the globetrotters don't have a career of taunting like other teams.
