TSN smartened up a bit: although a few days later, we're actually getting Tough Enough 2 as it happens, instead of weeks after it's all done, like the first series.

Heat spoiled some surprises for me, but they're ones that made me happy: Danimal is in the house! He seemed like one of the most interesting in the Casting Special. I was sad when he didn't make the first cut - but when Shad failed his physical, Dan was the first alternate!

Among the ladies, I expect that Jesse will be one of the first cut. She was chosen for her spunk and charm - but she's also way too small. I'm larger, and I'm too frail to wrestle. Plus, she couldn't even do any of the initial physical tests.
