Hair Jordan should have been in the finals! - Yo Momma (2006) Discussion

[–] bobdude25 17 years ago

That was a bunch of crap! Bullshard's jokes were just ok. Hair Jordan said three hella funny jokes and then two so-so ones and gets kicked out? He probably has the top 5 funniest and most original jokes ever said on the show. Its a shame that they voted him out like that. I think its because hes a white guy.

Hes right too, Bullshard just has a good memory when it comes to internet jokes. At least Hair Jordan comes up with his on the spot.....even when he doesnt, they are ones youve never even heard before. That Rosa Parks joke was brilliant.

because hair jordan was just anohter harp pekin without any delivery. in best of the week, he started slowing down and said some crappy jokes

[–] bigdaddy1224 17 years ago

slowed down?! dude he was picked as the top guy in the quarters! he had the choice of PICKING his opponent. And as you can tell by their battle, AJ and Brett were the weakest links. Had he picked Brett he would have torn in to pieces.

by the way, does anyone remember the list of jokes he had against bullshard. i'd like to see where he went wrong. all I remember is the first one:

"Yo momma is like a Wal-Mart. Always low prices. Always."

yah i would have liked to see Hair win but
his jokes did start to wane towards the end
and yah even with his weak jokes
his good ones were better than his opponent's

but one of the jokes that might have cost him the win was about
his momma being so old she's not over the hill
she is the hill

that really turned the audience off

He didn't lose because he was white he lost because he fell off at the end. Dude was funny everytime he battled cept his last. He had some so-so lines but the ones that were bad brought him down.

I agree with the person who said it earlier, Jordan DID lost because he was white. I haven't seen every episode, but of the ones I've seen, the only white guys that the crowd ever likes are the ones that act black, period. Jordan acted extremely white, so they didn't like him, even though his jokes were awesome. He didn't fall off towards the end, his last joke wasn't good, that's all. He still should have won, but the crowd thought they were too cool to like this extremely white guy. Gotta act like a hardcore gangsta yo, I can't even laugh at no white boy. blah....

[–] BruceLeeeroy 17 years ago

^ Wow you need to watch again...if he lost because he is "white" how did he even make it that far... The crowd was feeling him but like I said he didn't attack real hard at the end. Sure he had some funny jokes against Boomshard but he wasn't consistent in that battle. It wasn't just his last joke that wasn't good. SMH at thinking he lost cause his race...

Stop making excuses. He lost because he started to do poorly. There is no acting black or white either. If you mean gangster then yes. I'm just disappointed that fellow Whites have to make excuses if they don't win soemthing, get over it.

I would've loved to have seen Bruno and Harp go at it (from last season). Bruno was awesome. Hair Jordan lost because of his last two jokes...the TLC one, and the momma not being over the hill, but being the hill. Those two jokes were really lame and Boonshards (even though internet jokes) were good AND he delivered them well. Hair Jordan just shat the bed unfortunately...which like Bruno (who stumbled for a second against D Redd), cost him. All it takes is a couple bad jokes or an untimely stumble to lose. Compare all of these guys to Harp...who is original, has an awesome delivery and NEVER stumbles....also lots of Sting. That's what it takes to win....a Harp like performance.

I would have to say (honestly) that Bruno was my fav from last season...so creative. Really wanted to see him and Harp go at it...that would've been a classic battle. Chuck was good to...but I still think Bruno could've taken anybody save Harp. I do think Harp was clearly the best. This year I would say Jonny Mal and Kareem are my favs, BGB a VERY close second, then Hair Jordan third. A defeated episode would be AWESOME. I hope they do a BEST of LA and NY...want to see Harp take on the winner of NY and Chuck to take on the runner up...or have the four LA people (get rid of V and insert Bruno though...HA HA) vs. the 4 NY people...or even mix them up, 2 on each side...that would be insane!!!

Hair Jordan didn't lose because he was white, he threw bad jokes and the so-so George Washington joke in the semi-finals against Boomshard. Boomshard was then able to take advantage with his quickness and delivery because of the strictly only crazy/old momma jokes rule which gave Jordan less creative room to throw excellent jokes which he whad been doing. The same exact thing happened to Emilio at the Best of Manhattan. Emilio was hillarious in the Harlem vs. Hell's Kitchen episode (Your mom's like a moped, fun to ride when no one is watching. Your mom's on two diets because one isn't feeding her enough), and at the Best of Manhattan freestyle. But he threw mediocre jokes because of the strictly crazy/cheap momma jokes against Jonny Mal. Jonny showed that he was funnier within the crazy/cheap range by throwing funnier jokes and his classic "Warriors come out and play" joke, which shows that Jonny Mal had more endurance and can still be hilarious with boundaries. Endurance and working with boundaries is an important part of the competition. I agree that Hair Jordan is hillarious but he just threw bad jokes at the wrong place at the wrong time. I also agree about Jordan choosing the wrong opponent. If Hair Jordan choose Brett (the worst trash talker ever in any of the finals of Yo Momma), Brett would have thrown even worse jokes and it would have made Jordan's bad jokes look really good. Brett didn't belong in the Best of Bronx episode. Brett from South Bronx should have faced Nore from Throgs Neck episode should have taken place, so Nore could have whooped his candy-ass. Nore, a runner up, deserved to be in the finals more than Brett.

Finally! Someone realizes Emilio. I think he is a really GREAT trash talker. He owned Lord in that battle. Lord should be ashamed that he lost and he's from Harlem! HARLEM. Emilio fried Lord. He put the HELL in Hell's Kitchen.

Hair Jordan's weakness is his consistency. He really had some jokes, that even though they hit, were all due to delivery. Like "Yo Momma's like Wal-Mart, always low prices... Always". Honestly, not really top notch stuff. Although, he had some PRICELESS jokes like the Rosa Parks joke and the Jay-z having problems joke. His best jokes were easily the best in Yo MOmma's history, even better than Harp, but some stuff was honestly a little weak. He'd be in the finals if he pulled up the quality of his low-end jokes.
Although, there is an article in a college newspaper where he explains that his battle vs. Boomshard was SERIOUSLY edited to make him look bad. Edited to the point where the battle edited in a 2-2 split decided by Wilmer although the televised edition appeared like Boomshard won 3-1.

Well, there have some mixed opinions on the Hair Jordan/Boomshard battle. It could be edited, as I can't imagine why Hair Jordan would try to lie about being cheated of a rather cheesy guilty pleasure MTV game show. If anyone wants it, here are the joke the two of them used for the Best of the Bronx semi-finale (Or at least, what was shown).

Hair Jordan: You mom lost her virginity to George Washington; I cannot tell a lie, he chopped her cherry tree!

Boomshard: Yo momma's so crazy, her imaginary friends won't play with her!

Hair Jordan: Your mom's so old, she knew the Black Panthers when they were just kittens.

Boomshard: Yo mom's so old, she took her road test on a dinosaur.

Hair Jordan: The only applause you from that one is from your mother, and that's cause she got the CLAP!

Boomshard: Your mother's so old she wears a wig with gray extensions!

Hair Jordan: Your moms like TLC. She's not sexy, she's not cool, she's just crazy.

Boomshard: Your mother's so old her grandmother's pregnant with a mummy.

Hair Jordan: Your moms not over the hill, she IS the hill!

[–] free_jack2000 17 years ago

Well, if you noticed, Jason said STRICTLY YOUR MOMMA JOKES BUT ONLY HOW OLD OR CRAZY, and Hair Jordan's 3rd joke was irrelevant to the rule for that round. And if it was edited where they used Hair Jordan's 2 worst jokes, then did anyone ever think about the jokes that were edited out from Boomshard?

reply

[–] Purdyboy411 17 years ago

Yeah, I see where you're going with the clap joke. But I feel for some reason that Wilmer/Sam/Jason could've pointed that out to Jordan immediately after he used the joke. As for Boom's jokes, well, I for one can only guess.

reply

[–] Purdyboy411 17 years ago

Don't you think that if Boomshard had better jokes that what was shown, then maybe the producers would've allowed it to be aired.

reply

[–] singhbrandon 17 years ago

I do thynk that BoomShard's jokes may have been too inapproprait for airing. They may have been really funny. They had to have cut somethng of BoomShard's out.

[–] Just-Scott 16 years ago

I just watched this episode again and I still agree that Hair Jordan should have won. First of all, people keep pointing out that Hair Jordan told two so-so jokes. Well, true. But his other jokes were really good, especially in the free-for-all at the beginning. All of Boomshard's jokes were so-so though. I didn't laugh at a single thing he said.

I also completely believe that it was edited to make Hair Jordan look bad, but that can't be proved so, whatever.

reply

[–] singhbrandon 17 years ago

Hair Jordan did have some bad jokes. Also, Boomshard had a couple of bad jokes 2. A lot of people are blaming Wilmer because he strung together Hair Jordans bad jokes. However, people are not thinking of what Boomsard said. Maybe he said some REALLY GOOD jokes- but they cut it out- maybe cuz of the content of the joke. The jokes they cut out can really change the outcome of a battle.

I agree with everyone- Hair Jordan should have chosen Brett. While battling, he should have taken notes. Who had the worst jokes? Who had the best? Who could make a good comeback? Hiar Jordan should have saw that Boomshard was really good and had a lot of jokes. Hair Jordan saw the use of internet jokes by BoomShard and I guess he thought that Wilmer and the crowd would realize that. He saw that BoomShard uses the internet and I guess that at the beginning of the round- Jordan thought he had it. The topics were Crazy and Old. Crazy jokes are hard to find on the internet, old jokes are common on websites, however, they suck.

Another possibilty is that HJ assumed that if he beat Boomshard that early in the game, it would be smooth sailing from there. He must've also thought Boom was probably gonna beat him if they were both going to tango in the final. Which is sad, 'cause I'd have loved to have seen a limitation-free battle between Hair Jordan and Boomshard. Especially the friend/family round where Boomshard would bag the life out of the guy w/ the yellow jumpsuit that was in Jordan's posse.

reply

[–] singhbrandon 17 years ago

I agree with u Purdyboy, had bommshard battled HJ in the finals- that would have been one hell of a battle.. theres no kidding that boomshard could take down anyone in HJs posse. they all look/dress funny. anyone, even brett, would kill them. boomshards delivery would give him the edge in the 30 seconds round, hjs a little slow delivering- he could only make lyk 2 or 3 jokes. i just wonder- would any of these best of the week battles change if they played joke til u choke instead of 30 seconds in Brooklynn and yhe Bronx. or played 30 seconds in Manhattan and Queens??? both have to do with different things
joke til u choke is about consistensy
30 seconds is quickness and delivery
