For The Uncompromising Uncommon Sports Fan

It’s late so this will be short:

FABIO WINS

I’m delighted that Fabio won. He was the clear audience favorite. The crowd in the studio went wild when his name was announced.

When Chase came back from the reward, I really respected how honest Fabio was about how he was feeling. He was trying so hard to be "fair" about his frustration but he knew he needed to share that frustration with Chase. Fabio grew on me a lot with that exchange. I didn’t sense any game play, just a guy trying to get something off his chest and then go kick some ass in the next challenge, which he did.

Yet another reason I love this show. The [huge manatee]! Jane was so honestly upset at the loss of the chicken that she had a funeral service for the little fella.

Show up… and play. That’s it. When you fail to do one or both of those requirements you are not living up to your end of the bargain. One might say you are in breach of our implied contract.
