I could see Olivia's last message as being somewhat joking. She says that she's stupid for going again and it kinda sounded like the tone of someone who's terrified of what will happen or know that their making a mistake.
A mistake, hmmmm........
And off-topic, but I wonder if Rider actually thought he was going to convince the Munn worshippers in the AOTS boards of anything negative about their queen. Good try, but no one listened......

I tried a different tact and so far so good. I will never convert the Munn boobwatch brigade™ but still it's worth a shot. I know Olivia reads it whether she comments on not (though she was pissed at me.. something I was very happy for ) so maybe she'll behave this time and keep her antics on AOTS. Still think if she's seriously injured she should allow someone else to take the spot. Lord knows there's a line behind her to take her spot in a heartbeat. If she's just nervous then that's another story. Still think she doesn't belong there but of course that's going on deaf ears

I don't think it really makes any difference whether she's injured or not.

LOL true It's the concept though. At least when you make an attempt.. be prepared for it.. ya know? Remember I also ragged on Brett as well for being injured and still going on the course It's a personal pet peeve of mine.

I bet somehow that the "injured" thing is part of the joke character she has established on Ninja Warrior now....in any case, we the fans got slapped again.

Nah I believe her. Apparently she went with Luci to train somewhere and twisted it. But again.. this is before she got on the airplane.

Hmm, okay. Doesn't change the fact I'd still rather she not compete (perhaps Kevin oughtta take her place, since he at least TRIED last time), but if she's hurt, that's too bad.

I didn't want either of them actually. They have more than enough joke competitors. Quite frankly if they were going to be sent at all they would be better off hosting the Ninja Warrior special like Zack did rather than take up someone's spot who would do better and quite frankly the REASON ANC even existed.. to have fans of the show be part of the show.. not the damn hosts of another G4 show.

TBS probably won't show Olivia period. She will fail sooner than this time and will be the next Yasuo Aoki. G4 will have to beg for the footage for Ninja Warrior fans appeasement(although it doesn't appease us Sasuke fans). The Japanese people would see her and probably be like...WTF? Who is she at what the heck is she doing? Is she trying to look like an idiot?
I love ranting about idiots, cause they don't get it that everyone else is laughing at them, not with them.

And people like Kevin and Olivia are probably the reason we won't see Kuramochi or Choshu or any of those other jokers again, since apparently there isn't enough room for all of them....
...seriously, if anyone wants to represent America and G4, that's why there's something called the American Ninja Challenge!......
.......oh wait I forgot, you have to know parkour first.

And a host now choses Granted I'm happy with David but the idea that it's no longer "challenge" still bothers me. /sigh.. Oh well at least it's not just me. I'm just still in shock that Olivia people believe that Ninja Warrior is owned by G4 and that they somehow call the shots. Must have been a wake up call to Monster 9 who has been making the show longer than G4 has been a network.. LOL

LOL they LIKE the gifs.. Still do appreciate it I think at this point it's best to agree to disagree and pray that Olivia gets a clue. Kevin is not there.. and now we have to hope Levi tones it down... maybe Luci will get her uninterrupted interview with Nagano.. AND David is going to go to Muscle Park on his own tomorrow morning

Where do you think I got the gifs!? And it never hurts to try.
What Levi should do is just don't do the flips and just try to beat his other two times.
We can hope.
Tomorrow Morning? That would be tonight here wouldn't it?

Yeah tonight for us. When he posted his pic on the thread it was 11 PM his time in Japan and 10 am here (east for me). So I'd say after dinner he should probably post if he managed to convince them to allow him to go out alone and try out Muscle Park.

I would be interested in seeing David at Muscle Park. I hope Olivia isn't an idiot, and screams "Ninja Warrior" like a f***ing idiot again. If it's in Japan, you call it by the Japanese name, or no one understands(or misunderstans) what your saying.

*sigh* She's gonna make an a** of herself on the course again, I can totally feel it. She keeps this up, they'll bar G4 from doing any more American Ninja Challenges (not that they have been as such the last 2 or so times).

He did say G4 gave him a video camera for his trip. Who knows, maybe G4 will follow him there even though it wasn't part of their proceedure this time.

I don't think there's any kind of thought going around in some of those people's heads on the AOTS forum except thinking of Olivia and how great she is: that's pathetic. I swear whenever I read something in that forum, I'm pretty sure my IQ drops haha. Arsenette, I don't know how much clearer you could be with the people on that forum haha. You basically shot down all excuses for Olivia's actions last time, and they still attempted to defend her. They're like gnats: you may swat away the ones in front of your face, but there are always others to go where the other ones have been moved haha. I just hope that in this Sasuke the g4 people develop a much better persona and that it is a successful tournament both ratings-wise and getting-to-the-final-stage wise .
