I can't find the gripe thread so I'll put it here.

Hey BB... if you're gonna keep putting geriatrics in the house, you ought to at least pretend you care whether they have a prayer of competing for positions that keep them there. Gee. Did anyone not know that Jerry had zero chance of getting the POV? Pffft. I knew it was Memphis' before it ever started.

Good point Chippy! Same with the endurance comps. At least on Survivor they kind of even the playing field at times like when they take into account each person's height and make adjustments for certain challenges.

chippy which is exactly why geriatrics should not be in the house. Only people who can compete should be in the house. I agree he had zero chance of gettig POV but what should we the viewers be subjected to? boring Q&As for a whole season? Seems to me he will be on equal playing field in the HOH competition this week. BB knew that Jerry would be safe if he didnt win the POV

MAybe a Q&A for POV when a geriatric is nommed... Save the physical stuff as much as possible for when it does not involve an elderly person. Not asking to make huge concessions, just a few that would make the game a bit more fair for all involved...

Jerry has done just fine in the comps... he has won HOH and 2 POV's... more than Ollie can say.

ETA: I think Jerry is better suited for some of the physical one's than he is for the Q&A... that ole memory ain't what it used to be..but he does seem to have some strength in his arms

Keep in mind a certain fellow who was rather successful at Big Brother and never won a single competition (other than the game itself).

A good contestant plays the game in a way that allows them to use their strengths (not necessarily physical).

that is right Jimmer, BB is first and foremost a mental game.

You guys bring up some very good points. And I am not looking for a pass for anyone. Just like to see things a little more even for everyone.

BB let us all know from the very beginning that Jerry was a very strong competitor, look at his arms, how many 70 year old men do you see in his shape? No conspiracy theories there! He has done very well in all comps.P.S. I still don't like him though!

I dont like him, but to me it helps his chances for staying. No one sees him as a threat.

He'd probably be the best one to take with to F2. Why don't the remaining HGs think so?

Veto is supposed to be your chance to save yourself. Jerry didn't have a prayer of winning it. I'm just saying that if they're gonna put old people in the house (and come on... there's NO comparing a 75 yo to a buff 20something), they need to at least pretend to level the playing field. It's called imagination. They ought to buy some.

I'm gonna get a kick out of the reaction when Dan starts eating Renny alive. Him and Memphis have already started. They're so self assured that they can use her and talk her into doing their bidding. I hope she gets the next HOH and gives then a whatfor. This is going way too good for the 2 of them right now. Yawn.

I don't agree with changing the pov challenges, if you really feel they should change for Jerry, why shouldn't they change for the weaker women?

Jerry lives about 30 mins. from me. I do not know him but I know the people that he will have to see when he gets back. It will not be good for him! It is very conservative and they will not think much of him and he may have to move!!!!!!!

I only watched for a few hrs last night, but it sure seems as though Jerry was really throwing out the cuss words last night, he was really fowl.. He was almost neck and neck with Michelle.. what a turn off...

When signing up for BB you know what you're getting yourself into. There are physical comps and there are mental comps. You need to be able to complete the tasks no matter what your age or gender. They shouldn't be expected to play down the comps for someone who signed up knowing full well what he was getting himself into. He chose to play, they didn't force him into that house.

And, that certain someone who won season two without ever winning an HOH also won when they did not have POV comps. Those started in season 3 (i'm pretty sure ?).

Good one, Ollie. This fits right into that premise. It's from an earlier post of Wargod's.

Wargod stated: (Ollie and Michelle talking)

He's a plant in the house....Dan hosted one comp where he dressed up as a plant.

They are sure that Michelle has figured it out first and that if she asks the question in the right way, Dan will be out. Ollie thinks its discourteous of bb to not tell her if she's on the right path or has it right (I thinks bb is too busy laughing to let her know anything at all.)


First, LOL @ BB laughing, Wargod. They have to be and second, they're putting it altogether because Dan was DRESSED as a plant once?? Unbelievable.

Michelle also said Dan wanted Memphis out but Memphis f*cked him by winning PoV. Is she for real? If you told her the sky was purple, would she talk herself into it?

You can't fault BB for Jerry's bad gameplay. His whole gameplay has been to go tell whomever is on the block that HE (Jerry) will save him, but he/she owes Jerry. That's what he did when attached himself to the ones in power each week. Now that he can no longer do that; he has no game.

Ollie and Michelle must think they are playing the Mole and looking for the hidden clues 'Dan's a plant because he once dressed as a plant...' I can see it now; at the live eviction for Michelle's speech she'll say "Julie, I have figured it out! Dan is the Mole and since I am the first one to out him I get to stay and he gets evicted!"
