		<description><![CDATA[At the risk of sucking up, the show is WAY more entertaining and informative than I thought it would be. I think the tests are very good as simulations for the conditions would-be entrepreneurs face. I hope to get on next season and find out for certain ... considering I haven&#039;t reached the top of the mountain yet, I wonder how I&#039;d do, even in a simulation setting.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I can&#039;t believe how out of control and disrespectful the contestants were toward the 2 boys durning the &quot;LOSER&quot; shoot out. As a Little League President, if anyone would have treated any of my players like those &quot;contestants&quot; did, they would immediately &quot;lose their chance at 1 millon dollars&quot;. Competiton or not, how dare they behave in such an unacceptable manor towards those boys.As far as the show goes, It ROCKS! I watch all the &quot;reality&quot; TV shows and this one is the best. I could even do this one... and win!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well It looks like someone took some creative license and created alot more suspense with the final shot of horse.  I&#039;m sure the game ended with a miss but NOT that miss.  The shots that proceed the final cutting montage clearly show no one sitting in the seats 5 away from the scorer&#039;s table But when that ball that hangs up there is shown 5-6 cheerleaders magically appear in those seats.  It worked the suspense was high.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Team beautiful must be stupid.  How can they let Linda and Spencer manipulate them?  All team beautiful had to do is get together and pick either Linda or Spencer to get eliminated!  If this didn&#039;t settle the dispute then make all five draw straws!  This would at least make Linda and Spencer sweat a little.  No way should team beatiful have let the other two off the hook.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to agree with the idea that someone should have been eliminated for the trash talk to Lucas... not because I don&#039;t think Lucas will ever live down the torment... mainly because I would be livid if I were hosting an event of this nature say for the Mavs and I had someone on our staff act as poorly as Team Blue... this is different than sideline retribution for a bad call as I know you enjoy... I would never want anyone on my business team who felt Team Blue&#039;s behavior was acceptable...I know the decision has been made as to who receives the money... this is my speculation of how it should wind up...Linda cannot be the alter ego because that would be the opposite of what we see which would be quiet, humble and reserved...not gonna happen... I say she has a few lies up her sleeve... I&#039;d actually like to see a second personality of the Watermelon Queen... I don&#039;t mind kindness and beauty winning out if there is a fighter underneath...Spencer- hmmmm, brilliant by the books but not quite the all-around player derserving of awards from The Benefactor...this brings us to Femia... I feel she was actually the link behind the successful &quot;don&#039;t waste my time&quot; challenge... she had a bit of a whacked out fashion show but she isn&#039;t Versace and she stepped out of her comfort zone...my heart tells me she is the &quot;one&quot;... I would take away points for each of the Silver team agreeing to such an original idea of playing Jenga for the elimination...Although, it was smart for the girls to play Jenga with an intoxicated Dominic... I saw the tease of &quot;what will happen to Dominic?&quot; I couldn&#039;t figure out why Dominic didn&#039;t make a last ditch effort to team up with Spencer.  I feel he isn&#039;t the worthy recipient of The Benefactor but he does have the &quot;It&quot; factor... he is memorable, charming, handsome and willing to take chances...if he remains, I&#039;d like to see his intelligence shine through... if this were to happen, He would be my hands down winner... aren&#039;t you glad I gave my two cents? :)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Come on... First of all, the black girl is black.  She&#039; not exactly hot.  i know she thinks she is, but she really isn&#039;t.  The blond girl is hot so we&#039;ll leave her alone.  And Dominic, while he is easy to get along with or so it seems.  He has very little muscle but acts like he has alot bgecause of his low body fat and his 3 pounds of gel in his hair.O course, Linda and Spencer both completely suck.  But at least the gay black guy is gone.  I&#039;m starting to notic ethe key to making the show.  You just have to be extremely annoying and be completely different than mainstream society.  The only person ont eh show who seems half-way normal is Dominic. All the others are really annoying and some are even flaming.]]></description>
