I don’t know about you but the latest series of the Celebrity Apprentice is starting to grate on me. This week’s episode saw the two teams tasked with selling wedding dresses and boy, did the girls whip the boys asses. And, I’m very glad they did.
The ladies sold over $100K worth of merchandise while the men managed $60K but if Dennis Rodman could have been bothered then it may have been closer. Frankly, however, I fail to see what the point of Dennis Rodman is. Why does he even walk on this earth or breathe? To me he’s just a washed up old basketball player living on past glories and displaying an incredible arrogance to not only his teammates and to Donald Trump but also to the rest of humanity.
Trump should have fired him this week along with the guy he did fire, comic(?) Tom Green but he bottled it and only Tom was sent packing. Did Trump bottle it? Well, let’s just say he’s no fool and he knows full well that Rodman is the only “star” in the men’s team and currently he’s making great TV for the Celebrity Apprentice by getting people to react like I’m doing in this blog.
Firing Rodman was the right thing to do for the men’s team but it wasn’t the right thing to do for TV. As long as we understand that we now understand what the Apprentice is about. And on that note, it’s become increasingly obvious that it’s not about how well the team can do the task but about who they know and how much they can extract from their wallet.
This season is disappointing… I enjoyed last year but that’s because the series had people like Gene Simmons in it. A person who knows business and a person who could outsell all of these candidates on marketing ability alone…let alone donations.
On another note, last nights episode was much better now that George Ross was restored to his proper place on Trump’s right hand. He wasn’t taking any B.S. and he saw right through the scam Rodman tried to pull off. He’s a nice guy is George and he sure knows how to tell it like it is!
So…we move to next week…the ladies are 3-0…and with Rodman still in the men’s team, it’s gonna be 4-0 before we know it. Will Trump bottle it then? Let me know what you think.
