You're right, Veganking, and that's what I see as the biggest difference between "Big Brother" and "Survivor." Survivor is played by people who really have a clue (hopefully, for the most part) and who can keep themselves from starving to death on a deserted island. Any typical crew of hamsters dropped off in a Survivor locale would end up like the Donner Party after 100 days!! --maybe sooner!!!

So, the brigade is no more... I'm not surprised it couldn't last, too many cracks.

You'd think Matt was the glue that kept them together, well maybe a very lousy glue because it's falling apart. I don't blame the three remaining wanting to get rid of him when he obviously like his side alliance more.

However, this is BB and alliances are bound to be destroyed sooner or later. I think they're all at fault in a way, the three e/h/l should have confronted Matt and find out about his intentions with Ragan, why is he more with him than with them? Why did he give away their golden pawn and kept the enemy? He worked against them more than with them. They should have told this to Matt and not plot his demise without knowing his true position with the brigade. Of course Matt would show outrage at not being trusted but the others should insist that he's giving them enough signs no to trust him.
As a last resort if I were Enzo I would tell Ragan that Matt was with the brigade since the start and wanted to just have a side alliance with him because they needed info as to Ragan's game. Get it all in the open and che sera sera but it's no use complaining about Matt without confronting him and get an answer. I think they're self destructing and coupled with lack of brains (they now believe Matt was the sab) they won't be able to survive while Matt with Ragan and Brit will.

With each day I find Enzo to be more irritating and unlikable, and I'm sure that as this game proceeds more and more viewers will agree. But I don't see any of the players -- either active or on the jury -- indicating their displeasure with or taking any action against him. So, maybe he is playing smart. (That's depressing!)

Well, if Matt never fit in with the Brigade, it could also be because these three guys are lousy partners. I was ready to see Enzo gone on Thursday (there is still a chance that he will follow Matt on Thursday) but if the three of them survive a double eviction... I may have to throw in the towel...

Same here!
I like it that Bren won the POV and thought the Bros will be smart and unload some dead weigh first. But they're thinking too far ahead now. I hope it bites them in the bud.

Matt might still have a chance if he tells Brit and Rag the "whole" story. Tell them how his Bros wanted him to rid Brit & Rag. Tell them to think about how he didn't use DPOV to get Brit or Rag out. (We know Matt is trying to keep both his alliances going, but this revelation might be what Brit needs to have. Lane and Hay do not want her around. They do not want any HG who could beat them in the F4 around. Brit and Rag might be able to figure those facts out.

It's only Monday!

BTW, we were all correct about how the <24> three celebrated the DPOV as their triumph!

Well it WAS their triumph because Matt didn't use his DPOV to put up Enzo or Hayden.

If it comes down to Enzo/Hayden/Lane and even Brendon it will be like the horrible last days of the house with Adam and whatshisname, especially if Enzo is involved.

I don't see how outing the Brigade helps Matt stay. Lane and Hayden would still vote him out, so Matt would need Brendon's vote in order to force a tie. I can't see any situation in which Brendon would vote to keep Matt (who is also in the Brigade, and who took Rachel out) over Enzo, who has been one of the few people in the house to talk to him.

Oh, I meant help hurrying Enzo, Lane & Hay's lives in the House. Better for my pleasure only. :-)

looks like Matt's days are numbered........I don't personally like him but, I do think he's been a key player in this season unlike any of the other brogade boys who just rode his coat tail & now are turning on him. I have never liked this kind of game play!

finger's crossed that Ragan wins the next HOH!

I don't want any of these three to make F3 at all!! I'd like to see Brendon and Britney and Ragan blocking them and they should be successful considering that those three amigos are a bit slow when it comes to mental comps.

I just hope one of them is outed with the double eviction, if not, I will start to believe they have a magic power.

I think it will take Britney and Ragan winning all the comps to keep the Brigade out of the final three. Brendon seems to believe their string of lies and would foolishly nominate Brit and Rag instead of his real enemies.

To get through Thursday, Brenden is smart to depend on the Brigade. I know he does not see think this way or know what is coming Thursday, but he is safer Thursday night if the Brigade backs him.

I think it is possible for Britney and Brenden to align after Thursday (assuming they both make it through). But Ragan joining them? The man has no playing skills, is governed by his emotions and not his brain, and cannot see the forest for the trees.

I'm waiting to see if Matt will out the brigade to Brit or Regan before he leaves. He SHOULD have done it before he was put up.....

Check out the limerick thread for some of my thoughts about these three.

There is still a chance that one of the three goes after Matt. That's my only consolation and still hope that the next one out is one of them leaving only 1 out of these 3, hopefully Lane who could easily lose in later mental comps.

Entertaining or not, like them or not, there is no way they could have played a better game this season. They set up an alliance, they kept it quiet, they took advantage of others mistakes and they have cruised through the game. Almost effortless.

I agree, Jimmer. It actually has been kind of interesting to watch this season from a hamster-neutral point of view. I don't really like or really dislike any of them, and the Brigade has played their hand fairly flawlessly so props to them. I'd just rather see a mismatched pair in the final than two Brigades.

If by playing a good game you mean they lucked out that Ragan and Britney two huge Big Brother fans also turned out to be catty haters that spent most of their time trash talking Rachel even weeks after she had left instead of noticing that they were being surrounded. Then yes they played an awesome game.

Every year people win this game on account of other players losing it.

I don't think the Brigade played flawless...I just think this year BB put a bunche of dummies in there....Come on. Britney and Ragan claimed that Brendon was a Dummy...but the difference with Brendon is he spent most of his stay in the house out of the Loop...Britney and Ragan was right in the middle of it and still didn't see it...

They played the hand they were dealt, which includes Britney and Ragan's lack of observation skills. The also didn't divulge details that would have clued in Britney and Ragan (at least until last night's lightbulb moment with Ragan, which came too late). In the condition presented by this group of players, the Brigade have played relatively flawlessly. In another season they may have played a different, more aggressive game, but with this group of players I'd say they're sitting pretty because of their own low-key game play.
