Others. such as holding on to a pole or balancing favor the women, but not this one, imo.

Since they always tailor these kinds of challenges to body weight, it makes it a little more glaring that they don't make any adjustments to the pole challenges.

Survivor related news - Tina's Wesson's son was killed in a car wreck this week. So sad.

I'm sure Tina and Katie won't be at the reunion show.

Wow, that's too bad. I wonder if this news gets a wide-release and if it will affect the fan favorite vote.

That's terrible. I wonder if her son will be the one to visit them during the family episode. That is, if they even have one this season. I can see them skipping it since their family is already there.

Must be sad for a gal to realize that your mom's hotter than you.

That's not the best picture to illustrate your point.
