    getting more lame each week.

    At least this episode didn't have the drama, but....
    The "TOP SHOT" being determined in a way where the guy who doesn't miss goes home but the guy who does stays?

    Do they really expect real shooters to bother applying for season 2?

    I was so eager to watch it the first time... then after that i just kind of catch it when i am not busy lol.. The drama is really dumb.. History channel viewers are def not looking for that kind of stuff, leave that to MTV or something lol

    And i agree about the guy who misses staying...I hardly think the person who wins this will be the "TOP SHOT" lol.. not saying they arent good... just that there are probably alot of real pros out there who laugh at some of this show...

    Red team just plain God awful sucked.

    I just don't buy all those BS excuses. That's crap "To much finger on the trigger..." "I'm a rifle shooter..." bull hockey, those shots weren't any thing special to sit there and miss three or four in a row. Shoot at an easy one to see where it hits and start knocking them down. Leave an easy one for the next guy to tune up on with the first shot.

    That was pathetic.

    Adam belongs on house wives of MTV or something. Denny should have just snot slapped him for opening his mouth.

    How true guys..... its like survivor, after a few hours they all start to play the game..... either being the mouth, statergery ;) or just sitting back idly by while the others fight each other.

    I was in hopes there would be some real shooting sports going on.... but deep down I knew the survivor mentality and game would surface, too bad.

    as a reminder, for all you "Internet Top Shots" out there, there is a USPSA/IDPA/Steel/3-Gun match or something almost every weekend somewhere.

    Come show us how easy it is under the timer ;)

    Are you KIDDING me? With this crowd, it would be all drama and no shooting... ;)

    And it would have to be on Comedy Central, not History Channel. Or maybe HBO due to adult content and language...

    I'm hanging on to the show on the hopes that, since there are more shooters than shows left, they have a 4 man or whatever shoot off at the end that's heavy on the performance and light on the drama.... like cumulative ranking-based score using all the equipment used in previous episodes...

    but I expect to be disapointed....

    Yes with only a handful of episodes left than either more then one will be going home per episode or they are going to have some kind of multigun challange for the finally.

    But it will probably just be spit wads through a straw winner takes all.

    Maybe a happy medium would be a paint ball match.

    You know, I've gone back and forth on the elimination challenge from the most recent episode...and I've finally decided I thought it was stupid. Not because it wasn't "good", but because it was kind of boring to watch. None of the excitement from previous elimination challenges, no zip line or rope cutting...it was only slightly more exciting than a bullseye match.

    I have to admit, I was right with the guys in the elimination. I've never played poker and wouldn't have any idea what to have been shooting at!

    I was trying to give Adam the benefit of the doubt - figuring I was biased for his reaction to our INGO Homey Caleb. Editing can show parts of people's personality that are small - but the editor blows up to make the show more interesting.

    After this week's show... I'm so over Adam.

    I'm now watching to see when he loses.

    I don't know much about poker either, but wasn't there a biga** board with all of the possible hands ranked for them to see? Seems like one might take a peek at that and pick one near the top.

    I'm just sayin'.

    And I too am looking forward to the end of the D**che Field being transmitted into my home. Even if I'm not watching the show, I feel like that jackhole is contaminating my television.

    I am curious to see what they do with only 4 episodes left and 10 contestants left to bodybag. I'm suspecting a double elimination or two.

    Final challenge will be redoing all of the previous challenges in succession. Fastest time wins. Points (like the longbow and Kentucky rifle) trim seconds off your time. Marathon shooting FTW!
