Do I feel sorry for Brit....Sure, just as much as she did for anyone kicked off before her..Which is NOT AT ALL!!!

I am thrilled that the mean girl is now leaving

Save your tears Brit because we have seen the REAL Britney and believe me it was NOT pretty.

I don't feel bad for Brit. As well as she knows the BB game, she got distracted by emotions and ruined her own game. The lack of good play this season allowed the brigade members to go to the end. She should have been a major player in her own alliance. She blew it.

no I don't feel sorry for her. She didn't play well. She didn't see the writing on the wall. I like Brit and had hoped she would have won it all, but you can't win if you don't make the plays. I am sorry that she is hurt. I am sorry for all of them when they leave, even the ones that I don't like.

I didn't watch the live feeds at all and I wish that CBS would have shown the real Ragan. With that said, I still didn't like him because the little they showed about his evil self was enough to turn me off and his hatred was just evil! Glad he is gone, too bad this year BB was a bust for me.

No more wake up calls for Brit, she needed a cold shower to wake up, actually the guys threw her a bone by letting her know well in advance so she won't stress too much... I would have played the strings a bit longer....

I mean, it's true, she deserves to go for not making the rigth moves when she had a chance, she always went with the majority even when she could shake things up... played too safe and not smart. Brendon's suggestions were laughed at, Ragan's suggestions were considered pathetic. She couldn't see the light about Matt. She couldn't stop and think why Lane was so nice to her. She couldn't second guess Hayden's proposals to F2. Hasta luego Brit!

I agree that Enzo should be the one to go instead but I pray he will follow Brit real soon!

I found that article to be very biased and clearly written by someone that simply hates Ragan. Much of what was said may have happened, but on much smaller scale of importance than what this writer recalls. And might I add, not a very good writer either.

I either heard or read everything quoted as being said in that article and more. And I remember thinking to myself every single time (along with all the times strategy was squashed by "hate"), I will celebrate when the two of you(Ragan/Britney) get got so I don't only not feel sorry for her, I got a spring in my step.

I am sorry however that they got good edits and that Brit got her a bunch of pity votes for AC. That's all I got.

As I said, much of what was written about did happen. However, it was elevated to such a level as 'brainwashing' and CBS was called out for their accountability. To whom? BB boards were even counted in as brainwashed! And calling Ragan 'possessed' was over the top. He was bored and angry and said some awful things. But to suggest he needs electric shock therapy was grossly out of step with whatever he may have said.

It was a ridiculous personal rant disguised as an article. Had it been written with a modicum of restraint, it may have been more palatable.

Britney can dish it out, so she better be able to take it too. NO sympathy here. She got what she deserved and if this would have been anyone else, she would have been laughing louder and longer than the rest of them.

Lajonesin, I felt the same way about the article. Britney's mean remarks were always behind someone's back, never directly to them. Ragan only said mean remarks directly to Rachel because she kept bothering him. He did say the things written about regarding the word associations that I felt were very odd. Also he enjoyed telling adult jokes that were in poor taste.
Britney came a long way in the game and if she played a better game, might have gone even farther. So I can't feel sorry for her being the one to go. She doesn't want to have to socialize with the people at the jury house, so hopefully CBS will show us how that goes. There is more drama at the jury house than on the feeds.
Both Ragan and Britney find it easy to cry when things don't go their way.

Thanks, Lucy, for bringing the article link to this thread. I felt the writer really had her facts straight, and she obviously spends much time watching the feeds. I found the information to be accurate, and I share her frustration that the Big Brother sites all have chosen to ignore the things Ragan and Britney said. They were dismissed without discussion, while Lane's animal abuse comments were widely discussed. Those bothered me, too, but the refusal of the feed watchers to even acknowledge the depth of derangement required to even come up with the filth that spewed from their mouths makes me speechless. All the while, CBS has portrayed them both very well.

I agree with Chippy that CBS has garnered sympathy votes for Britney in the AC race with their repeated edit of the sweet little blonde haired gal who has a spunky zeal for life and can run with the big dogs. Too bad that show watchers will never know the truth.

This is why I have NO sympathy for Brit. She had every opportunity to choose a different path for herself in this house. She didn't, and those of us that were subjected to her poison suffered.

I feel sorry for Brit regarding the bad decisions (including mean talk) she made during the game.

Recently I was taking a trip way back down memory lane including a momentus occurence in my life when I was 23.

I am nothing like the person I was at 23. I wasn't a mean girl but I was certainly on the wrong side of many things.

Ideally we would like to think a girl like Brit should be mature at 23. I find myself getting really impatient when they call 20-somethings, youths.

But like Judge Judy likes to say... some of them are not fully baked at that point.

I wish them all luck. Personally I like some better than other. But they all have a huge opportunity to look more closely at themselves in the coming weeks. Maybe some of them will grow.

Heck no! Britney's awakening to the fact that she had been used all season by the Brigade and has no chance of winning the $500K is now the highlight of the season for me. She was a mean, insulting, condescending backstabber who finally is receiving a taste of her own medicine.

Ms. Haynes had several opportunities to align herself with people who would have saved her or taken her to the final two. Britney refused all attempts as she played moon-eyes with Lane. I don't feel badly for her stupidity or her bare emotions because she made her own decisions. She had plenty of opportunities to chart a safer and more certain course and she let them slip by. Karma is now paying her back. Big time. She deserves every bit of it.

Adios Britney and don't let the front door hit you in the rear as you leave the house on Tuesday.

Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Goodbye!

do i feel sorry for her? No... But not because of <77> hating on brit cause she is a trashtalker. Seperate your hate hostility and then answer the question

Britney is a mean girl, but she is STILL HUMAN. I hate how she has been so verbally ruthless to people behind their back, but *she* thought she was being funny. She would never be rude like that for sheer malicious hell raising a la Evil Dick

After reading through a lot of the posts on this thread,I can only come to one conclusion. There were never really any truely likable people in the house to get behind.
I know some of you will think "Well,I like so and so." Did your really or did you just find that person to be a better option for you to get behind than anyone else.

Alison Grodner was crowing in an article last week about high ratings. She talked about how casting a villian for people to hate was part of their success. She never specified who was the villian this year.She needs to remember that people like to have someone to root for not just someone to hate.

Now we are going to be stuck with a final three that does not contain one single person to root for. Not one of them was ever in danger of leaving all season. Not one of them gave us reason to pray to the BB gods to give them a little extra help in a competition.Not one of them made me jump off my couch when the won something.

Now they have gloated like the sore winners that they are and all we can hope is that the least vile of the three win this thing and the most vile walk out at final three with nothing.

If Enzo wins I will never watch another episode of BB again...his ego is worse then DR Will..he won ONE competition all season but struts around like he is the best thing since sliced bread. Someone needs to knock him down a few pegs.

Caprica,
I think your third paragraph is a pretty fair wrap up of the season for me. And why I personally found it boring. Also why posting was down. Also why, that person in the linked article above found so little outrage at Ragan and Britney, lack of interest. On line viewership fell off. My feeds ran in the back round but I had no intense interest or burning desire to post.

I found myself thinking, if production is going to interfere, then give a DPOV of Brendon, not Matt, who already has protection ,which leads me to believe they can ask leading questions but no overt interference. Otherwise, I think they would have saved the DPOV for another HOH, not Matt's. Not that is beside the point.

It was not a real sympathetic cast. Even Andrew, who was an outcast, behaved so oddly, he was hard to root for.

At some point in almost all BB's, I feel bad for whichever player is feeling down in the dumps. And then they open their mouth and the feeling passes.

Britney hardly ever shows compassion for anyone until she is in the bad position. Perhaps this is a thick skin she built from her competitive pageant days. If so, good for her . She doesn't necessarily need more friends from complete strangers but, it didn't make her a very sympathetic person either.

She played an excellent game, had plenty of opportunity, and now he time is over. I don't feel bad for her.

I find it interesting that Brit trashed Rachel and Brenden for their relationship, yet her downfall is her relationship with Lane. Not as physical and steamy and Rachel and Brenden, of course, but no less a strong relationship in the House.

Rachel and Brenden worked together and supported each other. Brit's relationship with Lane was simply a convenience for him to use her, and nothing more. She was a tool and nothing more.

Rachel and Brenden's relationship may have been their downfall, but so was Brit's.

I don't feel bad for any of them, this was a different season. It seemed that almost everyone who was on the block and the target for the week isolated them selfs, there was no major fireworks. I don't think the AC should go to the one america felt the sorriest for but rather who played a better game, winnin comps and stayin in the house the longest.
Hayden won 3 HOHs and 1 POV
Raehel won 2 HOHs
Matt won 2 HOHs
Brendon won 1 HOH and 3 POVs
Britney won 1 HOH and 3 POVs
Lane won 1 HOH
Ragan won 1 POV
Enzo won 1 POV

My vote will go to either Britney or Hayden unless then are the final 2 which is very unlikely and in that case I would go with Brendon
