starvenger 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 Well, here we go again. This one is "book smarts vs street smarts", but it should really be subtitled "who is Trump trying to kid here?" We know that Trump has a hard on for education, and based on that the "street smarts" team is already behind the 8-ball. Regardless, I'm hoping that this "season" of the show leaves a better taste than the last one, where Kelly seemed to have won because he didn't suck as much as the Jenbot...

Alro 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 I'm pulling for street smarts, despite my intentions to start a MBA program this year. I think we'll see a few level heads, but I expect the show to have mostly overly stereotypical members of both types. It just makes for good TV that way. The obvious choice to be his apprentice is somebody from the book smarts side because, as you said, Trump has a hard on for education. If the final two come down to books vs. streets, I think he'll pick books even if the street smart candidate performed better. He just seems that petty.

Mik 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 I'm a big apprentice fan, but I have two problems with this season: 1) Far too close to last season. The break was negligible at best. I feel like it was just on two weeks ago. 2) I can see way too many petty annoying arguments taking place that go like this: "Book smart": Yeah, and what school did you go to again? "Street smart" I'm still a success, I'm fabulous. If you're so much smarter than me, why did I out perform you on this mission? "Book smart": Witty retort about how smart they are. "Street smart": Angry reply about how hard they work. It's gonna get old real fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add Donalds hard on for what college people went to and their educational background, this season looks to be heading towards being even more frustrating than the last one. I'll still watch every bloody episode though like an idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2005 No, I'd like to see him breakout and totally own everyone and the guitar thing was just a front. Of course, that won't happen and he'll sing Trump a song begging him not to get fired. "Please, Mr Trump My Job, please don't dump. I have a guitar, I have this song, Why can't we all just get along?" *Jason comes in and jobs his head off* *Donald looks at Jason deadpan* "You're Hired" *Jason gives the thumbs up* *Donald picks up the phone* "If they screw up again, let them know heads will roll" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
