@Donnybrook10 - What the heck are you talking about?!? My selection process went fantastic, they loved this video, and I was in the cast of Season #1 !!
@ww2pat - If only I had an M&P with that fine of a trigger on the show ~!! Hope to see you again at next match setup with JT and the gang. Maybe I'll even bring a pistol to shoot next match...
@gsp9917 - The cast of Season 1 and Season 2 have been joking around together on line, and looking forward to adding Season 3 cast to our little club. Most of season 1 got back together for a reunion party in Vegas at SHOT show. I still don't like Caleb, but more importantly we all came away with many more lasting friendships as a result of the show.
@gsp9917 - Thanks man, that means a lot to me coming from a fellow Marine, and a force recon sniper no less! Hope to see you on a future season of Top Shot. Let me know if you need any help with the application process next time they are casting. OoooRah!
@linglingjr - Yes I made it onto the cast for Season 1, and finished 6th overall. Since then... they finished showing a new cast in Season 2, they just filmed season 3, and are auditioning for Season 4 right now. You need to get caught up !!! :-)
@gizmoguyar - Correct. What I built was a trebuchet, and the footage shown here is from the famous Punkin' Chunkin' competiion in Lewes, Deleware... and was shown on ABC-TV news.
@proudofmycity - Yes, my speed shoot clip in the video was 5 shots. And I said that in our sport we can shoot at a rate of 6 shots per second, and this is what that sounds like. Meaning the "rate of fire", not the number of shots. My burst of 5 shots was only around 0.75 seconds. If you blast the sound on your speakers you can put a competition shot timer on the video. Splits should be 0.12-0.15 seconds between shots. :-)
@gungho65 - you were amazing man, pity you were knocked out - that was a pretty hard round you and kelly left in, damn a few seconds here and there - that was a good run though
@crazyhillbillies - Thanks very much! I just didn't think I was fast and agile enough to do well on that hill challenge, and that doubt got into my head and psyched me out. And turns out watching the episode on TV later, that I was among 2nd or 3rd fastest time when I fired the miss. LESSON - always remember you CAN do it, until its ever proven you can't !! The shot was fine, just a dumb mistake. I held to the wrong aiming point... worrying more about the hill than the shot.
@gungho65 - thats very true. I dont really like the fact that all the work put into getting into the top 6 could be decimated due to 1 shot =( . Well good luck in the future - i really wish that topshot would view the progress of several events inorder to come to an elimination decision instead of just 1 event - cause even the best shooter could make a mistake easily
Right on man, thats pretty awsome that you made it on the show and placed 6th overall!!! And yea looks like tons of fun!!!! i would love to do try out for that!!!! Have too look around and see if i can find it and try out hahah!!!! Also would love to shoot your sniper riffle man, my type of gun!!!!!
@daneage23 - The second season is worth recording because its great shooting fun! But I am only on the first season. Might find old season1 episodes on the internet, or the box DVD set. Probably should not give away how I did if you are going to watch the series. Its more fun watching it happen!!
@AndyHanturd - On the farm where I hunt they experience terrible crop damage from the deer. I've seen as much as 1/3 of the corn destroyed !! The farmer asked me to shoot lots of doe while I hunt for trophy bucks. Along the way I try to practice good QDMA and help balance the herd. Nature would normally have an equal doe to buck ratio.
And to put the meat to good use, I donate numerous deer to the local FHFH branch (Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry).
@gungho65 right man thats pretty cool!!! how did you do? and i cant wait to start recording the series!!! is only for americans or can canadians try out too?
@daneage23 - I finished 6th overall. Could have done better but I made a stupid mistake on the Episode 9 hill challenge. Choked, I guess. But along the way, I made some great shots. Awesome experience. You should contact Pilgrim Films to see if Canadians can sign up. I don't know the answer to that one...
Oh okay thanks for explaining that to me. That's very understandable. Where I live, the deer are very scarce, and you are actually lucky to see a few does during a few days of hunting. Its actually illegal to shoot a doe where I live unless you are under 14, or over 65.
@TheJonnydog - Baltimore's motto is "Believe", and it was working for me for a while. But as soon as I started doubting myself on that big hill challenge everything unravelled. Made too many mistakes on that hill (extra bullets loaded, the HK sight drum, and aiming at the wrong spot to miss on the Mosin!!). Bah !! I really could have (should have) won this thing, but the competition was tight and even one dopey mistake at the wrong time and you are done!
@majinbuu54321 - It feels like a hot ice pick stabbing deep into your flesh. But the old 100,000v models are not too terrible. The police models are much stronger. I filmed that taser scene 4 times trying to get it the way I wanted. Four zaps in the same spot can begin to hurt.
@TheCornMast3r - You mean for understanding how the game is setup and actually trying to win? I guess that makes you a dumbass douche on the internet . Just saying.
@gungho65 The whole point is who the TOP SHOT is. Not whos the smartest and trys to take out other people. Good tactic but low blow. How are you supposed to know who the real top shot is if you knock him out before he can have a chance to show his talent, which, was better then Adams.
@TheCornMast3r - Actually you are wrong. The whole point is that they created a fun reality show featuring guns. It may be titled "Top Shot" but don't kid yourself in thinking it was actually designed to identify the top shot. Its a reality TV show. If it was really about the true 'top shot' it would be cumulative score and without voting. The producers put voting in there for a reason, and you would be a dummy not to play the game the way it was designed to your advantage.
@ARodBiz - Thanks! And for the record, I was actually talking about some guys who claim to be Navy Seals but are not. Real Seals are more than competitive, and would certainly take the taser shot (or ANY shot) without hesitation!! :-)
I have to admit, I didn't care for you on the show, however your audition tape was well thought out and well put together. You're probably a better dude and a nicer guy than they portrayed you to be on the show.
Remember, the goal of a contest is to win. My audition tape was carefully put together to get me invited to the Top-50 final casting call. And at the Top-50 testing I delivered with both shooting skill and a big personality so that I would get selected for the show. And once on the show I thought about the rules they created and talked about various strategies to win.
You seem very reasonable. What exactly did you not care for ?
1) I didn't care for the scheming that took place to eliminate Kelly.
2) I'm not a big fan of people who act like blowhards and think they're better than everyone else. I tend to subscribe to the "walk soft and carry a big stick" school of thought.
Having said that, I can see you're clearly a guy who is a "type A" personality, but this doesn't mean you're a blowhard, just confident. I'm ok with confidence. (limited space so cont.)
@jafount - Remember, that "scheming" was designed to be a part of this game by the people who created it. Its not supposed to be the Bianchi Cup or the US Nationals. Its just a Reality TV show that happens to include real exhibitions of skill. And along those lines, any "scheming" in voting would only SEND you to elimination. The person with better shooting skill comes back. Shooting skill trumps the vote in the end. The voting just makes it interesting enough to get on TV :-)
I believe much of my opinion generally has to do with how things are edited in final production. This is why I'm not a fan of "reality shows" as they tend to be anything but "reality".
Anyhow. I'm glad I stumbled across your audition. I'm sure you've taken a beating from people over this. I realize a little bit of "fame" can bring the douchebags out of the woodwork. You seem like you're taking the whole thing in stride. Did you at least have fun on the show? John
@jafount - These things always have a basis in reality. It just gets spun out of control by the pressure of the camera, and the bias of editing. And what you never got to see was how much FUN we had in general, hanging out together! Tara put on a fantastic Easter Egg hunt, Pete lectured endlessly on the evils of chimps, and we had a blast playing endless games of Prison Rules Spades. Plenty of practical jokes, and every day a sit down meal together like "family". Some good times!!
@shadow83blk - I am exactly that good, however good that may be. That's why you can see it displayed on video here. A better question is why YOU can't get over me. This isn't your first post, right?? Ha!
Hi Adam it's me again and I just want to ask you something. You may know that I want to be a Corpsman and can you tell me the equipment a Navy Corpsman has to operate on a Devil Dog and what would they be used for? Also do Corpsmen get issued weapons like the standard issued rifle today? OORAH! Semper Fi till I die!
You know honestly, it must be Reality TV or something but the way the presented the show made people look worse than they really are. A perfect example is Brad, people on the internet HATE him LOL. But he's a good guy.
Adam still proved he was skilled in shooting and that's what the show should have been about. Not focused on arguments.
@advonspaandc5 - Its what they are selling. Could be that we are just regular people.
And that people pushing negativity are just looking for reasons to put down others to make themselves feel better about their own miserable lives. For them, its easier to try and knock down others than to elevate their own game.
@lyons5507 - I would welcome an intelligent conversation. But are you aware you spelled "intelligent" and "believes" incorrectly? Perhaps just a typo.
Your intial premise here makes no sense at all. Just because something is aired on national TV, does not mean I can't be right. What you actually mean is your opinion that I can't be right based on what you saw on TV, versus my opinion and knowledge from actually being there in person and seeing everything that went down. Right?
@lyons5507 - My sleeping is not a problem (as you saw on the show). Ha! I just do not like ill-informed and stupid people. And phonies. If you want to stand on a position, at least have it be an intelligent and well researched one.
no i was refering to the fact that you said the phrase "rat fink" god only knows how many times. and ya know with that whole situation the only reason you were all upset is because you got called out for plotting on some team mates, wich is somthing i could of seen kelly doing acting like a highschool tween no i didnt see that coming from you.
@lyons5507 - You are missing the basics. First, its not "plotting". When your team loses, no matter how much you like them, you HAVE TO vote two people out. Talking about who that should be is a required part of the "game". I didn't make the rules, but they allow you to vote off anyone. And the mere suggestion of voting off the two perceived best is not a crime, its actually the smartest strategic move. Would you play monopoly and not put up Hotels so that the pro's would like you more?!?!
@goldeneye007662 - And my point is that the words used are far less offensive than the phony B.S. taking place. Judge by the actions, and even more importantly, the "why" driving those actions.
@goldeneye007662 - Ha!! But seriously, why would you want a "retaliatory" remark at all? What would you actually be retaliating against? People make a reasonable comment here (or at least clever) and I give them a reasonable response (with a shot at being clever). Its a simple process, and honest.
@gungho65 I'm gonna go back to my other comment here.
To be honest, I did see your point in the whole ordeal. The word wasn't offensive to anyone except for said "rat fink." And I didn't have an issue with the word, who used it, who it was directed at or anything. My only issue was at the sheer volume of the usage.
@goldeneye007662 - As for the excess repetition, understand that a lot of that has to do with the TV producers. Each episode covers 3 solid days and they would interview us often. During the big Ep #5 fight, they must have sat me down for on camera interviews 10 times. So each time I was interviewed, with different camera teams and producers, I hit my main points (rat fink, etc.) only once or twice. And it was editing that selected all those "rat finks" from among everything else I said.
@TheAlexander8898 - I was in the Marines starting in 1983. While I was in boot camp, the bad guys blew up the Marine embassy in Lebanon. We also had attacks on Libya, and Grenada under Reagan while I was in. But I didn't take part in any of that. I was Infantry 0311 rifleman, and on Barracks Duty.
@gungho65 Well thank you anyway for serving this country and one day I want to be a US Navy Corpsman. You were one of my favorites on Top Shot. Semper Fi!
Gungho - do you regret how you came out looking during the "rat fink" episode??? Seemed a bit obsessive and kind of soured how I felt about you until the last couple of episodes! Congrats on making it so far however, and I did change my opinion back to liking you towards the end.
@mktuckner - Regret "how I came out looking" according to who? Based on what actually happened, I think I responded correctly. I was a bit redundant on the "rat" phrase, but no substitute would have been any kinder. The fight was about the how and why... not about the what. But the dummies posting hate stuff on the internet have no hope of getting that.
If you liked me in the beginning, hated one episode, then went back to liking me (and I am the same guy all along) who was wrong? :-)
@R77627657826 - Don't feel bad about me not winning, I think I have that covered fully myself. Ha!! There were just lots of cool shooters making some impressive shots ! Glad you got a laugh in the Rat Fink episode. We all had TONS of laughs behind the scenes playing cards and practical jokes on each other.
@R77627657826 - Absolutely. A bunch of us trade emails and text messages pretty often, and the entire cast will occasionally send some crazy email around. Pete and Frank even drove out to watch Episode #3 at my local bar together. Even talking about a cast reunion shooting event for fun later this year~!
@gungho65 It would have been pretty cool if the winners of each season were also allowed to take home a weapon used in the season of their choice. But i guess 100 grand will buy someone a lot of weapons.
@R77627657826 - Yeah, it would have been nice to win prizes (cool firearms) along the way, kind of like Surivor did when giving away a car each season.
Adam! You seriously made me laugh in the show, and on top of that you made me cheer really loud when you shot that fuse after Peter! Go Captain Furious!
You did great!! Top Shot really helps to show America that guns can be positive. I think it will help shooters everywhere. I appreciate the role and work that you did in the program.
@knightingalesaid - Thanks! I think this show reached out to a larger audience than the usual sport shooting television show, and I hope people got to see how much FUN we actually have shooting (and joking around with each other).
@rhcp4565 - WOW.... you must be incredibly stupid to believe that I am not in my own video clip, holding my own rifle!!! As if there are so many other guys with a custom AR hunting rifle, in .458 SoCom caliber, and with a SUPPRESSOR, dropping deer in the Maryland woods.
I've gotta know... are you bitter, stupid, or just jealous to make that kind of a ridiculous statement????
@gungho65 Is this really Adam Benson? Lol sounds just like the rants you gave during the "Caleb rat fink" episode. But no, I am not bitter stupid or jealous.....I merely thought that that particular picture looked nothing like you, and i still feel that way But......I believe its a picture of you. Good job on Top Shot
@rhcp4565 - Yes, its really me. And you can imagine my surprise (and anger) when you call me a liar over my own picture, in my own video, on my own website... as if you would know better than ME what I look like?? Sorry, but its hard to look as handsome during hunting season with a hat, a full beard, and a turtle neck fleece under a bright orange suit. Ya know !?!? LOL
@gungho65 Haha yea man, I know what you mean. Yea my comment was dumb, I'll it admit. This is so cool I am talking with one of my top shot idols lol.....that show was epic GRATZ Iain!! Lol yea but sry for my comment, cool talkin to ya Adam your a good guy
@rhcp4565 - Its all good. Glad you are a fan of the show (and even me, Ha!). And hope you got to see some cool stuff this season !! It was a great bunch of guys, and one terrific girl on the cast for Season #1. Looking forward to being a fan myself next season!!
@gungho65 Haha no problem man, your humor added a lot to the show. And yes, it was an absolutely PHENOMENAL group of guys and gals......can't see it topped next year but who knows! Anyways, thanks for taking the time to write back Adam, it really means a lot to me.........Even though we DID start off on the wrong foot LOL!!! Good luck with whatever the future holds in store for ya Bam Bam
@rhcp4565 - See how that worked out? We took a moment to look more closely at the actual facts, to find that you were wrong with your initial attack and accusations... and it turns out I really am a good guy, and we all get along fine in the end. lol
Very similar to the way the show played out. Ha! :-) Good talking to ya !!
@rudybeatskcazm7 - Federal paperwork, background checks, fingerprinting, etc. And legit "Class 3" dealer ought to be able to point you in the right direction.
Sorry to see you were elminated from the competition. As mentioned earlier you are a winner no matter what! You did great and I am sure enjoyed the experience! Enjoy the memories for years to come. The old neighborhood crew is proud of ya!
@unequalsoldier - Thanks !!! In that last episode, the fuse shooting challenge was incredibly hard as a pure shooting task. That hill challenge was hard, but I think I made it out to be much harder in my brain that on my feet. Seeing those other guys all set such fast and faster times got me psyched out. And then I just made some dumb mistakes.
Adam, i love your Audition video! i havent finished watching it, and i REALLY HOPE YOU WIN! u played this game great so far, and im rooting for you :)
Dude, you seriously took it over the edge for that "Rat" crap. I mean I agree that he should not have mentioned anything, but you took it over the top.
@9mmAlpha - I agree with you there! The entire show could have been straight elimination style like in Episode #9... but that wasn't the game we were playing. They (hollywood) made the rules and a survivor style game was what they started with. And wishing it were different, or playing it differently, would have just been stupid. Don't you agree?
@teemliberty - Shame to see it end early, but it was a heck of a ride ~!! Have you ever shot steel at the yearly PSA match in Pennsylvania? Awesome match !
@rustlerbadass - the filming for the show is over. We are now all at our regular homes, and watching it play out for the first time... just like everyone else.
This is a really good video. But why oh why do you live in the anti-gun state of Maryland!? Move to Virgina, broseph.
I understand your hatred of rat finks. Fine. But hypothetically, don't you think it is proper to rat on someone who is doing something morally wrong? I'm not talking about what you did as wrong, but in general?
@GuardianOfTheFaith - work put me in Maryland, but hopefully the Supreme Court will reaffirm the 2nd amendment for ALL Americans.
And no, even outside of the episode, I don't think a person should "rat" even on moral issues. If you have a problem with something a person is doing, just tell them. Convince a person what you want them to do, or make them. But deal with it as a man head on. And never apologize in a crowd (its sucking up to the group rather than being genuine and personal)
@gungho65 the mistake was not made by the rat. You can blame a rat for being rat. The mistake was telling the rat your plans, without knowing how the rat was going to respond. you only have yourself to blame. Kinda like how a good lawyer would never ask a question in court that they dont already know the answer to. loose lips, sink ships
@rwoods2k - You are correct. It was MY mistake to share any info with him. Especially since that one "plan" was just something to think about in case we needed it. And him running and telling caused an unnecessary blow-up over something that was very likely never even going to happen. But you might notice that from the time I finished that rope cutting, the fighting was over. Blue Team has never felt better, been closer, or performed better as a group.
you totally tazed yourself, thats Bad Ass. I didn't like how you handled things with Caleb at first but with how things have turned out so far and with the individual competition coming up so soon, you had the right idea. Caleb definitely made things worse by saying something to JJ and Blake before the team challenge.
@MaddDawg42 - That proposed plan was the right idea on paper, but it remains to be seen if that idea ever goes further. It didn't really have to become a big fight. If Caleb didn't say anything, who is to say it would have ever been more than some talk?? Remember, the "plan" in question was first based on a PRO shooter doing the worst and nominating himself for elimination, and then just voting for the other PRO to shoot against him. Not so unreasonable. And it still has never happened....
I don't think that Adam is a real competitor; he has just enough skill for the show's producers to put him in to start this Big Brother crap and be the comic relief.
@shadow83blk - Funny you say that. Turns out that when we all had did shooting skills test for casting, I finished #2 out of 50. Yup, I even beat your heroes. :-)
So yeah, I have plenty of skill AND comic relief, and I know how to play the Big Brother/Survivor strategy games. I just don't have as much experience under pressure as the big name pro shooters. Sure, I "can" do it. But will I..... ??????
Maybe you can, too. They are casting now for Top Shot season 2
I feel like it was a little early to try to eliminate the best shooters on your team. After all, blue team has been dominating, but I would have done the exact same thing.. stupid rat
@legitmw - The whole blow-up was episode #5 out of 10 (the half way point) so we thought a merge might be coming soon. And it still never got past the talking stage. Right now, Blue Team has never been stronger and we kicking butt !!
@legitmw - Best way to reach Pete (who is the funniest guy I ever met, PLUS a hell of a shooter!) is through Facebook. He has a fan page and a personal page. Give him a try there. The pictures he posts are hysterical !!!
Wow episode 5 when that little rat squiled out your plan to JJ and Blake! Man that was low of him! I would be furious! Oh man I just could not stop laughing "Rat fink" that just crackes me up. I cant believe he ratted on you and Chris like that...gosh I hope you win!!!!
@gungho65 What you did is the definition of a conspiracy, you made a plan in secrecy of your fellow team mates. He might be a RAT but you are definitely a SNAKE IN THE GRASS
@karsown - its an individual game, with just one winner. The "team" concept can't last forever so don't get too excited about it. You might wan't to plan ahead.
Didn't you see Survivor Season 1 ?? Snake eats the rat. :-)
@iHATEFORCE - Great to hear from you. And please keep an eye on Jason for me, I want to see him come back from any deployments in one piece. I'll do my best on the show to keep you entertained with shooting and sarcastic one liners !! :-)
@gungho65 haha that's still pretty nuts lol good deal man!! :-)

gungho65 11 months ago
@gungho65
Oh okay thanks for explaining that to me. That's very understandable. Where I live, the deer are very scarce, and you are actually lucky to see a few does during a few days of hunting. Its actually illegal to shoot a doe where I live unless you are under 14, or over 65.

Made too many mistakes on that hill (extra bullets loaded, the HK sight drum, and aiming at the wrong spot to miss on the Mosin!!). Bah !! I really could have (should have) won this thing, but the competition was tight and even one dopey mistake at the wrong time and you are done!
Go Season 2 guys !!

majinbuu54321 11 months ago
@majinbuu54321 - It feels like a hot ice pick stabbing deep into your flesh. But the old 100,000v models are not too terrible. The police models are much stronger. I filmed that taser scene 4 times trying to get it the way I wanted. Four zaps in the same spot can begin to hurt.

@TheCornMast3r - You mean for understanding how the game is setup and actually trying to win? I guess that makes you a dumbass douche on the internet . Just saying.
gungho65 11 months ago
@gungho65 The whole point is who the TOP SHOT is. Not whos the smartest and trys to take out other people. Good tactic but low blow. How are you supposed to know who the real top shot is if you knock him out before he can have a chance to show his talent, which, was better then Adams.
TheCornMast3r 11 months ago
@TheCornMast3r - Actually you are wrong. The whole point is that they created a fun reality show featuring guns. It may be titled "Top Shot" but don't kid yourself in thinking it was actually designed to identify the top shot. Its a reality TV show. If it was really about the true 'top shot' it would be cumulative score and without voting. The producers put voting in there for a reason, and you would be a dummy not to play the game the way it was designed to your advantage.

I have to admit, I didn't care for you on the show, however your audition tape was well thought out and well put together. You're probably a better dude and a nicer guy than they portrayed you to be on the show.
jafount 1 year ago
@jafount - Thanks, I would have to agree :-)
Remember, the goal of a contest is to win. My audition tape was carefully put together to get me invited to the Top-50 final casting call. And at the Top-50 testing I delivered with both shooting skill and a big personality so that I would get selected for the show. And once on the show I thought about the rules they created and talked about various strategies to win.
You seem very reasonable. What exactly did you not care for ?
gungho65 1 year ago
@gungho65
As I think back, I think it was two things.
1) I didn't care for the scheming that took place to eliminate Kelly.
2) I'm not a big fan of people who act like blowhards and think they're better than everyone else. I tend to subscribe to the "walk soft and carry a big stick" school of thought.
Having said that, I can see you're clearly a guy who is a "type A" personality, but this doesn't mean you're a blowhard, just confident. I'm ok with confidence. (limited space so cont.)
jafount 1 year ago
@jafount - Remember, that "scheming" was designed to be a part of this game by the people who created it. Its not supposed to be the Bianchi Cup or the US Nationals. Its just a Reality TV show that happens to include real exhibitions of skill. And along those lines, any "scheming" in voting would only SEND you to elimination. The person with better shooting skill comes back. Shooting skill trumps the vote in the end. The voting just makes it interesting enough to get on TV :-)

(continued)
I believe much of my opinion generally has to do with how things are edited in final production. This is why I'm not a fan of "reality shows" as they tend to be anything but "reality".
Anyhow. I'm glad I stumbled across your audition. I'm sure you've taken a beating from people over this. I realize a little bit of "fame" can bring the douchebags out of the woodwork. You seem like you're taking the whole thing in stride. Did you at least have fun on the show? John
jafount 1 year ago
@jafount - These things always have a basis in reality. It just gets spun out of control by the pressure of the camera, and the bias of editing. And what you never got to see was how much FUN we had in general, hanging out together! Tara put on a fantastic Easter Egg hunt, Pete lectured endlessly on the evils of chimps, and we had a blast playing endless games of Prison Rules Spades. Plenty of practical jokes, and every day a sit down meal together like "family". Some good times!!

@lyons5507 - I would welcome an intelligent conversation. But are you aware you spelled "intelligent" and "believes" incorrectly? Perhaps just a typo.
Your intial premise here makes no sense at all. Just because something is aired on national TV, does not mean I can't be right. What you actually mean is your opinion that I can't be right based on what you saw on TV, versus my opinion and knowledge from actually being there in person and seeing everything that went down. Right?

no i was refering to the fact that you said the phrase "rat fink" god only knows how many times. and ya know with that whole situation the only reason you were all upset is because you got called out for plotting on some team mates, wich is somthing i could of seen kelly doing acting like a highschool tween no i didnt see that coming from you.
lyons5507 1 year ago
@lyons5507 - You are missing the basics. First, its not "plotting". When your team loses, no matter how much you like them, you HAVE TO vote two people out. Talking about who that should be is a required part of the "game". I didn't make the rules, but they allow you to vote off anyone. And the mere suggestion of voting off the two perceived best is not a crime, its actually the smartest strategic move. Would you play monopoly and not put up Hotels so that the pro's would like you more?!?!

@goldeneye007662 - Ha!! But seriously, why would you want a "retaliatory" remark at all? What would you actually be retaliating against? People make a reasonable comment here (or at least clever) and I give them a reasonable response (with a shot at being clever). Its a simple process, and honest.
gungho65 1 year ago
@gungho65 I'm gonna go back to my other comment here.
To be honest, I did see your point in the whole ordeal. The word wasn't offensive to anyone except for said "rat fink." And I didn't have an issue with the word, who used it, who it was directed at or anything. My only issue was at the sheer volume of the usage.
goldeneye007662 1 year ago
@goldeneye007662 - As for the excess repetition, understand that a lot of that has to do with the TV producers. Each episode covers 3 solid days and they would interview us often. During the big Ep #5 fight, they must have sat me down for on camera interviews 10 times. So each time I was interviewed, with different camera teams and producers, I hit my main points (rat fink, etc.) only once or twice. And it was editing that selected all those "rat finks" from among everything else I said.

Gungho - do you regret how you came out looking during the "rat fink" episode??? Seemed a bit obsessive and kind of soured how I felt about you until the last couple of episodes! Congrats on making it so far however, and I did change my opinion back to liking you towards the end.
mktuckner 1 year ago
@mktuckner - Regret "how I came out looking" according to who? Based on what actually happened, I think I responded correctly. I was a bit redundant on the "rat" phrase, but no substitute would have been any kinder. The fight was about the how and why... not about the what. But the dummies posting hate stuff on the internet have no hope of getting that.
If you liked me in the beginning, hated one episode, then went back to liking me (and I am the same guy all along) who was wrong? :-)

@GuardianOfTheFaith - work put me in Maryland, but hopefully the Supreme Court will reaffirm the 2nd amendment for ALL Americans.
And no, even outside of the episode, I don't think a person should "rat" even on moral issues. If you have a problem with something a person is doing, just tell them. Convince a person what you want them to do, or make them. But deal with it as a man head on. And never apologize in a crowd (its sucking up to the group rather than being genuine and personal)
gungho65 1 year ago
@gungho65 the mistake was not made by the rat. You can blame a rat for being rat. The mistake was telling the rat your plans, without knowing how the rat was going to respond. you only have yourself to blame. Kinda like how a good lawyer would never ask a question in court that they dont already know the answer to. loose lips, sink ships
rwoods2k 1 year ago
@rwoods2k - You are correct. It was MY mistake to share any info with him. Especially since that one "plan" was just something to think about in case we needed it. And him running and telling caused an unnecessary blow-up over something that was very likely never even going to happen. But you might notice that from the time I finished that rope cutting, the fighting was over. Blue Team has never felt better, been closer, or performed better as a group.

MaddDawg42 1 year ago
@MaddDawg42 - That proposed plan was the right idea on paper, but it remains to be seen if that idea ever goes further. It didn't really have to become a big fight. If Caleb didn't say anything, who is to say it would have ever been more than some talk?? Remember, the "plan" in question was first based on a PRO shooter doing the worst and nominating himself for elimination, and then just voting for the other PRO to shoot against him. Not so unreasonable. And it still has never happened....

@socraze1 - I think everyone should be concerned with rats. And in Episode #5, I was the "Exterminator" :-)

@gungho65 What you did is the definition of a conspiracy, you made a plan in secrecy of your fellow team mates. He might be a RAT but you are definitely a SNAKE IN THE GRASS
