I can't believe Issac Caldiero burned our crops, poisoned our water supply, and delivered a plague unto our houses!

NBC decided to Russo my count. The actual, final, for really reals final Kacy Count for the season is 188. Lord knows what will happen next year if Kacy gets to the city finals.

Hope the massive backlash I'm seeing on twitter forces NBC to cough up the 2nd mil. Frickin BS. We called that this was gonna happen too when the first time it was conquered happened.

Rule has always been the farthest the fastest gets the money. NBC is in the right, especially after they crowned them co-champions. |

"Crowned them co-champions" Pretty sure the fact that they said furthest really showed they didn't think this could occur. Doesn't make it any less bulls**t.

*sigh* No mention of Drew's Sasuke run in the end after all. Oh well. All we got was Akbar saying that Drew competed in ninja competitions "this year" in "Asia," and was the top competitor there. -- Did anyone else notice in the side-by-side comparison of Isaac Caldiero and Joe Moravsky's Cliffhanger pre-jump technique that Isaac's thumbs were off the ledge and pushing up against the gray flat underside? I didn't record it, so I'll re-watch it tomorrow, but it didn't look like all of his fingers were only gripping the ledge. ANW doesn't care, but I'd like to know if this would make swinging/jumping easier than doing so from only holding onto the ledge? |

Geoff I believe mentioned he didn't care so long as they acknowledged he got up there as well. Either way congrats to both. I with both would get something outside of dual recognition though.. contract or no contract. I'm hoping the outcry will get a sponsor to do something nice for Geoff.

See this is basically what I'm saying, albeit a little bit softer. Think of all the years NBC didn't have to pay ANYONE, they'd really hurt having to pay more than one winner? And it's really a PR nightmare, it looks like so many people didn't realize/understand it was only one person winning no matter what. |

I'm really hating how all the media outlets are calling Isaac the "First American Ninja Warrior/Winner"
Technically both of them won right? Isaac just won the money.
And Geoff was the first.
Geoff is barely getting any acknowledgment from the media.

It's in the contract all the contest signed, the fastest time wins the title. I understand the fact that NBC doesn't have million dollar checks for everyone that clears all 4 stages and that's fine. Whoever clears stage 4 the fastest gets the money. Still I think whoever clears all 4 stages is champion. |

And it's really a PR nightmare, it looks like so many people didn't realize/understand it was only one person winning no matter what. Yeah.. it's just a shame since we know what the NDA says but the average viewer doesn't pay attention. They only see Geoff finishing first and then Isaac doing the same thing just a little faster and Geoff getting shafted. I hate to throw the Sasuke word round but that won't ever happen in Sasuke... then again the price tag for that isn't $1 Mil either. Still though, the people that pony up the cash (the sponsors) will probably do something.. the PR is baaaaad.. I doubt NBC will want to finish the season on a low. Stuff like this have sunk other shows. We'll see what happens. Maybe they will do something before the airing of the USA vs. World? It would be a unique opportunity to make things right. They haven't announced jack about it I'm reading from the forums? They can always post production something. That's the easy part. |
