He is such a piece of shit, I was so frustrated watching last night's episode. The stark contrast between the sportsmanship shown by all the guys on the red team in last night's elimination stuff made Jake's bullshit that much more intolerable.

WTF was he spouting off about when he was comparing himself to Attila the Hun? Seriously? All this shit about, "that's why I always succeed in EVERYTHING I ever do, ever" is so stupid. He's a goddamn D Line coach the University of New Hampshire, he shouldn't be talking like he's Steve Jobs or something.

I really hope Jake doesn't win this thing. It pissed me off when he said he hoped Mike gets booted on a technicality for hitting him. I really wished Mike would have wailed on him, but I'm glad he didn't. The on his face was insane.

9/28/2011 10:34:28 AM

I didn't like how he was treating Mike - he seems like a pretty good guy and didn't like seeing him pushed up to his limit. Glad he was able to calm himself down and be the better man, though. Now America knows Jake is a douche

9/28/2011 10:55:11 AM

People that cannot be reasoned with and are so closed-minded and arrogant REALLY get under my skin. I just hope they don't get better ratings by having such a douche on the show and then slowly turn it into a collection of self-centered assholes season after season just for the sake of creating drama in the house. Jay was a douche last year, but not even in the same ballpark as this king douche Jake.

9/28/2011 11:02:53 AM

Jake is a giant douche, the history channel has won though because now I eagerly anticipate watching the show in hopes of him getting eliminated.

9/28/2011 11:54:20 AM

I kinda like how Jake mixes things up a bit. All the guys who act all "sporting gentlemen" like just get boring, I like a little competition and dislike between the opponents. Jake is annoying as a person, but I feel like without him all the other guys would get a long to well.

10/5/2011 9:36:52 AM

I do not like Jake in any way. He is a bad person and a poor sportsman. This is a sporting show, not Real World

10/5/2011 9:42:07 AM

^agreed. The teaser at the end makes it look like Jake quits or something, but that's probably just so we all "tune in next time." I'm glad Gary prevailed, but man he shut the bed in the challenge.

Holy crap Dustin is pretty damn talented. So far he seems to have the best overall natural, innate shooting ability, given how he's been able to pick up almost all the different weapons well.

10/5/2011 10:32:50 AM

Dustin is actually part of an elite CIA hit squad that is deployed to various countries around the world acting as missionaries

10/5/2011 4:28:48 PM

It sucks because Jake really is a good shooter with most weapons. I mean he is dead on with most shots. Even with the elimination revolver. They had their chance to legitly send him to elimination and missed it. But, man, what a complete dick.

10/7/2011 11:57:08 AM

I know, it's a real shame. The guy is a crack shot and extremely adaptable, but with his attitude, it's almost impossible to cheer him on.

Second on Dustin's secret identity. The "Christian Camp" he works at is probably a front for a SOCOM black ops training facility.

10/7/2011 3:51:36 PM

I cant stand him. There is no way he life is not going to suffer because of this show. Who would want their kid playing high school football for this asshat?

And something I also dont get... Didnt he get all pissed off that he was voted to elimination unfairly, but then tell people the very next day he had no problem sending the strongest people to elimination so he'd have cream puffs to play against in the finale? Hypocrit much?

Jake, you are 100% douche. I am amazed your buddies in whatever elite forces you were a party to didnt off you in a friendly fire accident.

10/7/2011 4:09:27 PM

next episode spoiler: while sleeping outside, a coyote attacks and severely injures Jake; the rest of the shooters allow the coyote to nail Jake's target to the wall

10/7/2011 5:46:35 PM

good lord, what a little bitch

10/12/2011 8:30:12 AM

This is a facebook convo my dad (Marine) had with my uncle (prison SWAT)

Quote :

" Watching Top Shots, midway thru today's show, and that guy 'Jake' quit rather than shoot it out. I've NEVER seen something so lame in a show of this calibre. Without question cheering for your friend, but I'm very impressed all those left standing. Lame...Navy SEAL my ass.. Agreed. I'd like that verified given his attitude and behaviour Me too..and if it's true, I'd like to know whatever happened to friendly fire? only kidding... But I am curious if he really was a SEAL - or did he just buy the T shirt? The SEALs I've met, not many, but all were very normal guys, not a hot head or MASSIVE ego among them. Agreed..met a few running some teams in the bureau and they were not like that at all... Even when these guys lose they show class - Phil in this case. "Conducted myself in a manner that would make my family proud" - nothing but class. Now they're showing the carnival ride!!"

I asked who my uncle's friend was:

"Gary Quesenberry is my friend. We used to work together at Atwater. He was one of my fellow firearms instructors. We shot some pistol competitions together."

Wow, I knew Jake was a douche but not even competing? Did he think he was just going to walk through the whole competition without ever having to face elimination? I would have really liked to have seen someone take him out but whatever, I am just glad he is finally gone.

10/12/2011 9:41:49 AM

Yeah, good riddance to a complete asshat. Has to be one of most dislikeable people I've seen ever on a reality show.

10/12/2011 11:19:54 AM

I kind of want to ask one of the people he coaches if they are embarrassed for him or not - I sure would be.

Again, Dustin is a cold blooded killer. There is no way he can acquire site pictures that fast without some serious training.

10/12/2011 11:42:46 AM

Yeah now that Jake is gone, I think I'll enjoy the last couple of episodes more.

I'm glad to see Mike back as I really liked him, but I also kinda feel bad for Phil. I think he got screwed a bit. I'm sure the rule is in some legal document they had to sign (but probably never read) but that had to be an emotional rollercoaster. From being nominated for elimination, then Jake leaving and he was probably thinking he wouldn't have to compete to stay in. But nope.

Oh well, thats the game. I really like every guy left though, so it should be fun to watch

jake was in elimination a few weeks back and destroyed the other guy with the corner shot.

still glad he's gone.

10/13/2011 9:41:22 AM

^ which makes him just leaving seem even more strange

10/13/2011 9:46:36 AM

I can't believe it took me this long to realize that the Christian dude reminds me of Kenneth from 30 Rock

10/19/2011 9:50:40 PM

haha, he does. I can't believe how awesome he did at the circle spin thing. Who are yall calling to win it? I'm going with the church camp assasin.

10/20/2011 9:00:54 AM

I like all the guys left this season. As opposed to the first couple of seasons where I didn't really care.

But if I had to choose, I guess I'll pull for Mike. But I wouldn't be surprised if the assasin Christian camp director wins it.

Holy shitballs! That was an amazing performance by Dustin. Granted, Mike shut the bed with the Benelli, but Dustin was damn near perfect. Epic ass whoopin' by Dustin. I had no idea he was almost 30 years old, had kids and foster kids and whatnot. I guess the CIA pays him pretty well.

Also, the 100 yard golf ball hit with the .22 was awesome.

10/26/2011 8:27:44 AM

Guy is a machine

10/26/2011 9:01:55 AM

Yea I was impressed with the golf ball shot but his performance in the end was amazing, I can't believe how well he did. I'm glad mike didn't win, I'm not a fan of how they brought him back just bc Jake left.

10/26/2011 11:15:58 PM

Now I want to perfect shooting golf balls at 100 yards with a 22 rifle

10/27/2011 12:04:28 AM

Mike seemed like an OK guy, but he's definitely a bit of a weirdo. He really got on my nerves once I realized that he raises his imaginary pistol with his hands non-stop when he's talking... I bet that get's irritating as shit if you spend any time around him. I also thought it was hilarious that he introduced his shooting buddy first instead of his wife.

10/27/2011 8:34:34 AM

Yea, I noticed that too, I bet his wife is pissed once they re-watch it. He was definitely hardcore about finding every way he possibly could to train for the competitions. I liked him OK, I just didn't want him to win after he got eliminated. I expected the final competition to be so much closer than it was. I think Mikes wife and buddy being there threw him off.

+1

Something felt weird about it to me too, seems like the winner should be someone who never gets eliminated.
