DC SocialPulse: The Challenge: Rivals III - "The Naked Truth"

As your weekend winds to a close, welcome to DCBLOG as we bring our Week 6 posts for The Challenge: Rivals III. But as we begin, note that this week's 'Pulse is being posted a day later than normal - on Sunday, out of respect to a fellow member of the reality TV & music family who died doing what she loved in a terrible and senseless act. As most of you know, an alum of a past season of The Voice, Christina Grimmie, was gunned down after a concert in Orlando, FL on Friday night and obviously, our thoughts are with her family during this traumatic time. We felt it was appropriate to postpone posting this article by 24 hours so all of you can join with the music industry in mourning her loss and celebrating her life.
   As we move to covering The Challenge, last week we saw the undoing of Jessica and Johnny when her underperforming saw him go off - both after finishing in last place and losing the jungle. Cory found himself between a rock and a hard place when deciding to either protect friend Thomas or partner Ashley when Simone was the house's target after a late night fight. And after Brandon decided to quit, Devin and Cheyenne were brought back in as the new, and old, replacement team; just as Amanda & Nelson won that aforementioned elimination battle.
   This week, a rigorous mission and a mini-final of sorts takes over the attention of the house. From brains and balls, to walls and beds, to literally stripping down to their goodies, the teams battle each other for that all-important momentum. Plus, one competitor tries to win at all costs for their team and may cost them, while another who saved his cast from infamy tries his hand at mastering the game again. There's also more hookups, and another competitor receives devastating news that could force yet another early exit.
   All the action, reaction and interaction from this week is located below for you to check out. This includes the reaction the entire MTV community had with the passion of Muhammad Ali which we will touch upon here later during our Week 6 posts. And afterwards on ExtraTime, we'll delve again into the sports media world for my thoughts on the changing rosters of high-profile broadcasters, and which one I feel has the greatest impact.

- As we begin, please note there is explicit language in many of the tweets below, but they are kept uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-)
- Plus, if you haven't watched the episode yet, then do not proceed with reading this post. But need not worry...DCBLOG will compile all of these tweets into these posts after every episode so you won't be in the dark of how your favorites saw this all unfold.

It's The Challenge's take on Dating Naked. A team finds itself at the heart of Token Gate. And so much more. Join DCBLOG for how you saw Episode 6 of Rivals III...coming up next.


Our weekly diary begins with how Team MTV - both in and outside of the Trifecta - remembered Muhammad Ali when he passed away last week. We'll have more on the coincidental timing of this episode and of this occasion airing on the WRAP later on here.

‏@RealSway: When I was in elementary school, the first book report I ever wrote was about Muhammad Ali. I believed he could beat up Superman with ease. He has always been a hero to me and I will continue to stay inspired by all the treasures he's provided. He is a man I would never want to let down. In my opinion, what he represented and how he expressed it sparked the light that became the DNA of Hip Hop Culture. I'm so grateful I had the opportunity to watch his fights on TV as a kid. What a beautiful, graceful, intelligent, brave, wise, loving person. #RIPAli https://instagram.com/p/BGOKQoLrDTA/

So to summarize what we saw on Wednesday... we had the competitors endure all of what they had to do in a relatively early mini-final this season, as well as of course all the competitors opting not to have a birthday cake and instead go in their birthday suits - aka getting naked. In the end, Johnny Bananas and Sarah won that Challenge to perhaps take the game by the throat, and align with Devin after what we saw on the AYTO 3 finale it could happen again for Big D. Token Gate was the talk of the town when Camila & Tony deliberately knocked down Nate & Christina's token in that mission that saw them put into the jungle. But that battle between her and Nany (who was sent in with Wes) never materialized, as Tom got a call from home that his girlfriend was in the hospital, and he made the right call to sacrifice his & Simone's standing in the game to be there at bedside... by the way, she's alright.  We'll have more on the episode on DC WRAP before Episode 7 in a couple days.

CHANGING TALENT

Last week on Pulse ExtraTime, we offered appreciation for one of the icons of sportscasting in CBS' Verne Lundquist, and previously we featured Garbage Time host Katie Nolan. This week, we will look into the revolving door that is moves of sports talent. If you're someone who follows sports media, then you likely go to a site called Awful Announcing, which covers what's happening in sports television, digital and all else. This past week, the editors and columnists of that site offered their opinions of which personnel moves have had the greatest impact, and influenced this mini-post.
   It's been quite a past twelve months for the sports media world as it has been on the fields and courts, as rights and viewing habits have been all over the place, as well as a whole slew of changes as far as the talent is concerned...those who discuss the games, who call them and all on between.
● There's the co-host of ESPN's controversial First TakeSkip Bayless, who will shortly leave his post next to Stephen A. Smith to move ultimately to FOX Sports and join others who specialize in what is referred to as "hot takes" in Colin Cowherd, Jason Whitlock and Clay Travis, as well as former boss Jamie Horowitz who created the so-called "Embrace Debate" culture at the 800-pound gorilla and now is looking to bring his success - and viewers - to the fledging FS-1 channel.
● After his much publicized spat with ESPN that led to both his departure from Bristol and the eventual shutdown of his Grantland site, Bill Simmons joined HBO last year and give him all the freedom of being with premium TV's King Kong. The Ringer site launched this past week, his new HBO talk show debuts next week, produces a Game of Thrones companion show and he's already become a top podcast host (and someone who also loves watching The Challenge too).
● And there's David Feherty, a former golfer who's now the game's most unique broadcaster with his wit and humor, but has also dealt personally with alcoholism. For 20 years, he was part of CBS' golf team including The Masters, but last year moved to NBC in continuing to do on-course and tower commentary, while keeping a spot on Golf Channel, where he's hosted his own acclaimed, self-titled talk show with golfers and those who love the sport as the US Open takes place this week.

Speaking of the Peacock, for me sports media's biggest personnel move of the past 12 months came just last month, when the fortunes of not only NBC but also ESPN changed with one move. Just after the Kentucky Derby, one of sports' most versatile talents, and a prized member of the ESPN team for 25 years, Mike Tirico, announced his departure from Bristol for NBC. Having joined the network as an SportsCenter anchor in the early 1990's, he ultimately rose to prominence as the play-by-play voice of ESPN's Monday Night Football, the NBA, golf and college sports, and hosting the past two FIFA World Cups, Grand Slam tennis and beyond. And like other sportscasters before him, Tirico got his start at Syracuse University and calling Orangemen games on its college station WAER.
   For the folks in Bristol, this surprise move by someone they thought would work his entire career there along with Bob Ley and Chris Berman is only part of a slew of bad news that has haunted The Worldwide Leader in Sports in the past year: falling subscriber numbers, fans on Twitter getting on Skip, Stephen and others for their provocative opinions, people like the aforementioned Simmons and Keith Olbermann being let go among a significant cut in ESPN's workforce, and declining revenues for this very section of The Walt Disney Company impacting the bottom line for those who hold stock in the mouse ears. His departure leaves a massive hole in the network's lineup that will be hard to fill, though another Syracuse alum and a son of one of the first sportswriters to do TV work, Sean McDonough, will take over for Tirico on MNF.
   For NBC, they have snared a huge fish in the sportscasting pond and Tirico now represents the future of its sports division. Come the end of this month after he does hosting work on EURO 2016, he begins his NBC stint as a host for its Olympic coverage in Rio - returning to where he covered the World Cup two years ago, joining Cris Collinsworth on NBC's half of the NFL Thursday Night Football package, and going back to his roots as part of the network's golf package - including the Open Championship and Ryder Cup. Should NBC get a piece of the last big sports property up for auction in the Big Ten, he should figure prominently in that too. And considering its deep lineup of championship events, as well as family being factored in, it was not an easy call for Tirico to leave his home of 25 years for a new challenge that lies ahead.
   All this shores up a sportscasting group featuring Bob Costas, Al Michaels, Dan Patrick and others too many to mention. And when those first two do decide to step aside, then Mike will most surely be first in line to take over Bob's seat as Olympic primetime host perhaps as early as the next Winter Games in South Korea in two years, Al's spot to call SNF and a Super Bowl, and return to his golf roots in joining Feherty, Johnny Miller and Golf Channel. He is one of the best in the business and now he's joining the best in the business when it comes to quality sports television. While a former sportswriter from Dallas moving across networks and a bad breakup for another have been big, it's live events that matter most in the sports TV business, and it's Mike Tirico's move from ESPN to NBC that is, to me, the biggest talent move in sports media in 2015-16.

That will do it for the 'Pulse this week, with DC WRAP to come your way in just a day or two to review Episode 6, and again it would be appreciated if you can do your part to spread the word of this site by sharing my links with your followers and bring my exceptional coverage to everyone.
   A HeadsUp before we go: we were going to bring you a Spring/Summer edition of DC FORUM's Reality Debrief tomorrow to lead into the Season 4 premiere of Are You The One?. But due to the timeliness of this post, as well as my usual sidekick covering the Trifecta, fellow Insider Andrew Kirk not being available this weekend as he's getting ready to celebrate a birthday tomorrow, we'll be pushing that post to later this month right before the premiere of Big Brother 18. Andrew and I will have plenty to discuss when the latest installment of The Cueva/Kirk Report comes to you then. Be sure to send b'day greetings to AK today and tomorrow and it would be appreciated if you help him get over the 900 followers mark on Twitter as well at @CSUGradAKirk.
   Meantime, a busy Monday night is ahead on DCNOW at @DC408DxNow: the same night that AYTO Season 4 begins could also be the end of the NBA season, as Golden State looks to close out the Cavaliers on Warriors Ground and culminate their record-setting season. All the action begins at 9PM Eastern, with the AYTO Season Premiere to follow postgame coverage...and join the chat at #DCAYTO. There's also a good undercard to that in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final and new episodes of Dude Perfect coming up later tonight, schedule pending.
   Until we see you then, thank you for reading and enjoy your week ahead.

- I AM DC
