Last night Kimberly was finally booted off of The Duel2, but only after she was surprisingly impressive during her rookie challenge. She knocked off Robin in a Duel Pole Dance, outsmarted Ruthie in the Back up before falling to Jen in the charge and knockdown duel.
I liken Kimberly performance to the Gonzaga basketball team. She came out of nowhere (seemingly as a low seed, perhaps a 13 with Brooke and Katie as well as Chauvon as the lower seeds.) to upset a few of the big time names (Ruthie had to be considered one of the favorites and Robin is kind of like an Indiana. A big name that is past prime, but still gets name recognition). You know Gonzaga will never win the big dance but they will make some waves before leaving a few rounds further than they should have gone. Same with Kim. She will never win and never be taken seriously in future duels, but she will probably always take out a name or two before leaving. She should get respect especially after knocking out Ruthie, but she'll have to take out Beth at the next inferno then eliminate Kyia another gauntlet before people will take her seriously.
Just like Gonzaga had to do before they were able to start making the NCAAs as an at-large. So kudos to you Kimberly. Way to give it the good fight. Very Casey Calvarie of you. Very Dan Dickau of you.
