I don't know, I wasn't in the decision making process between the two alliances. But I would guess that the blue alliance figured they were going to lose anyway and wanted to take Steve up on his challenge. If it was purely for the money I would guess it would have been done earlier in the tournament. Even though there was money attached, I truly believe they all did it for the challenge, the wanted to meet Steves challenge, money be damned. The Blue alliance wanted to go out with a bang and they almost pulled it off. Actually now that I am thinking about it, all this discussion is kind of a bang....
