Casting for this past season began in late July/07 and ended September 15/07. They had applicants submit the application online and then attend one of the half dozen or so tryouts that were held nationwide. I run www.VPTVCompetitions.blogspot.com, where you can bring up the Pro v Joe listings and then enter your email address in the subscribe box in the right hand sidebar. That way you'll get a email notice when casting opens, which past evidence suggests will be around the 4th of July.

I'd like to see you so called real joes get through half the things we had to do this year. I guess that would be a challenge to you to make it on the show, if you can even make it past the tryouts!!! Holla at the Champ.

After a couple season watching this sports reality Pro versus Joe contest,now evolved into a tournament event. The only thing the Pro proves is why steriods are hurting sports and looking good is better than playing a fair game. There a probably contenders nationwide who can't get on Pro versus Joe "Shmo" due to their equal size and abilities.
True their skill level maybe semi pro at best , but it would make for a better contest. How would a pro look facing off with a simi pro in the same size and weight class. Yes I've seen the pro smaller in size than the joe, proving a retard is no match for a pro ether,"of any size!" Most of the time it's a mini wanna be versus a towering sports legend. Pro versus Joe pick from the very bottom of the bunch, to play sports also requires a mental edge as well a physical stature. A trash talker is a clear sign of a Shmo. That's why I think they should rename the show Pro Versus Shmo!

Taking The Pro's out of their element is a positive. Jerry Rice on ice skates was pretty cool. John Elway proved to have a very powerful golf swing. This proves my point of having a mental edge when playing sports. Jerry Rice took it slow on the ice skates, but I believe they still beat the joe.
