Top Shot Season 3 - Jake Targets

[blacklabel]

No doubt ... last season I thought George was a tool (and then he went and redeemed himself at the end there). But at his worse George was nothing like this Jake schmuck.

I actually didn't mind George at all. He was entertaining and then how he handled the end showed how much character he had.

George irritated me to no end. What a perfect example of a big meathead moronic douche. However Jake put him to shame in the douche dept. and he was a weak arse quitter to boot. He acted like a spoiled little 4 year old the whole show, sad rep for the Seals indeed.

I still think he is a cry baby that is used to getting his way and whines when he doesn't.

You've got a poor idea of what a metrosexual is. I think the vast majority of the guys on the show are genuine and I would hardly call any of them metrosexual.



Jake was a jackass and knew he couldn't compete on the range so he tried to do it by screwing with people. He's the only one in three seasons that I can remember trying to turn the show into Survivor with Guns.

actually I think he did very well on the range. totally destroyed the guy in the corner shot elimination.

he's a good shot, and has a lot of drive, but he has to be in control. his behavior goes way past a typical type A personality. I think he's got some undiagnosed problems that make him incapable of handling defeat or rejection. I've known a few people like that. the stereotypical bully that's crying on the inside.

he threw a fit when he was nominated to go to elimination the first time, and his attitude never changed back because in his mind that would be a sign of weakness.

he was gripping the racegun wrong and engaged the safety, but I'm sure he will claim that he was given a defective pistol in some kind of scheme to get him out. (like he claims about his departure from the seals) the mind of someone with paranoia or bolderline personality disorder can come up with amazingly intricate ideas on who's out to get them and why.

underneath it all I sure he's a good person, but the guy has some major emotional problems.

I'm sure some of the drama was due to clever editing, but it doesn't change the fact that he QUIT instead of actually shooting his elimination. That speaks volumes about his character.

Classic NPD ... just like my mother in law.

[spleify]

Elhuero, I agree with ya the guy actually was a good shot, its just to bad that his extremely poor attitude was so over powering.

Hey, on a side not that Alex guy from Conifer, CO seems like a cool dude and is pretty darn good. Does anyone know him?

[TSOTSI]

Driven people have been called crazy by the undriven since the beginning of time. This guy from a humble background has achieved more by age 25 than 99.9% of his critics.

After reading that interview 2 things are confirmed. It should be called "Unreality TV". Secondly if his intention was for the viewing audience not to forget him, he achieved that.

As Rush always says, "Highlight absurdity with absurdity".

The Holiday Inn Express experts are a joke.

That's was certainly interesting...

Can you imagine that guy as a US Senator?

If you haven't read it yet, here are the basics. Jake is a science genius, he was shot in the hip in HS but was running the next day and the bullet is still in him, he got top rank recommendations to get into the Naval Academy even though he didn't even know what the Seals were, he picked the Navy because it had nicer buildings than the Army, he took 6 months to get his Seal qualification when most take 18, he was a Seal but gave that up, he made 6 figures but gave that up, he got a coaching job by just sitting on the sidelines during practice and following the coaches around, he is an artist, and he has

“the innate ability to do the impossible consistently”

Sounds about right.
