According to the discussion I heard 2 weeks ago on LF........Brendon and Racheal had discussed this before entering the BB house. If they are both up for eviction and one has the POV.......Brendon would stay up on the block because if he goes....he can return to his studies/research for his PHD and because he feels Racheal could get farther in this game than him. This is the exact reason I think this year has bombed. Granted I am not a real fan of returning HG's, unless it is straight up All Stars and even then no real life couples. Just imagine if say Cowboy had got the spot on Season 6 instead of Janelle or ED had returned taking up the spot of either Jeff or Jordan. It just seems to me that by the casting calls there are too many fresh unknowns, to have to keep casting old tired reruns. I think it is so wrong that J/J and B/R were able to come with a team game plan. Not really sure if D/D had one or not. Even if they didn't they have played together before and have intimate knowledge of each other. They would have fell in line with each other. Who did Lawon, Adam, Shelly all the others get to make pregame plans with? Who they get to discuss the "what ifs" of the game with prior to hitting the house? Completely intentional uneven playing field if you ask me. Just like the big announcement of couples being over. Really? Really? Are we suppose to believe that J/J and B/R will no longer play as a couple? Again, that is only for the ones that have no pregame team-mate, relationship or plan.

I haven't posted in FOREVER... but i have been keeping up with the postings. I read somewhere in a posting that someone said "it would be interesting to talk to one of Brenden's ex girlfriends" - last season they interviewed one of Brenden's ex girlfriends and she told them that he was controlling, overbearing, verbally abusive, followed her around, didn't want her to have friends, etc.. So, she broke up with him, and he continued to 'stalk' her. She said she was a little afraid of him but glad that he has Rachel to distract him from her... It was a very interesting interview. Maybe it was BS, but everything she said backs up what he is doing to Rachel now. He's a big loser in reality.

Brendan did the right thing, but I suspect it was for the wrong reasons, namely playing the martyr while still getting to keep an eye on Rachel for the rest of the summer. But, how we got there doesn't matter, because I'm just happy we're here. Now we'll finally see what Rachel is made of. Sure, we'll have the mourning period and likely a plan for revenge on Dani and maybe JJ because of Jordan agreeing to be a pawn so BR would be split up. But, we'll also likely see her rededicate herself to winning - for Buki, but I hope for herself. She'll be a target no question, but she could buy a bit of time by positioning herself as someone's extra vote, and acting weakened without her partner, especially when a couple still remains in the house. I'd say there's a really good chance she'll win the next HOH - the only other competitor as good as her left in the house won't be eligible to play, and the newbies still remain unmotivated to step up.

chew - yes she got it taken care of. i thought it was an interesting way to name your dog or to come up with a name. i just thought it kinda funny how she said "i thought it was so cute that this little dog had worms... like a tequila bottle!" worms in animals is very common and very easy to treat - but not cute lol

Bilox yes, that is what really troubled me, because the 'couples' had an immediate advantage of at least one alliance member, while newbies had to form theirs

Question... does Rachel know Jordan volunteered to go up so a B exit was insured? And does she know about the one week deal between JJ and Dani? I haven't been able to figure that out... Thanks.

Dawn - being in rescue, we see worms all the time, it's no big deal, especially in puppers. I am an expert at checking poop for worms! I love the dogs name, I might steal it for one of my next fosters.....
Sad that she chose a breeder rather than a rescue though. We have some great dogs that need great homes and they're not all mutt dogs - I have 2 purebreds right now - Border Collie and Pekingese

Loppes, I think that advantage was offset by the fact that all the other players - if they had watched BB in the past few years - also knew all about their personalities and gameplay, and they'd have immediate targets on their backs.

they don't know.. but i think they assume. they are assuming that JJ made a deal with Dani because jordan went up instead of jeff. because it's obvious that no one would vote out jordan. last night rachel and brendon were talking and rachel kept saying "but what kind of deal could they have made with dani?? we tried to make SO many deals with her" and she was so oblivious to the fact that dani may have wanted to make a deal with JJ but not BR.

Honeybee - that was my post - I remembered that they interviewed the ex last season but couldn't remember what she said. No big revelation in her comments though - he's just creepy!!!!!

jarreau - i think the reason she chose the breeder cause it was her boyfriend's relative (now ex) and they had gone there for xmas and she saw the puppies and wanted one. she said she even called her dad and he told her she couldn't get one but she took one home with her anyways. so it sounds like it was a spontaneous decision. that's why i was kinda digging at the breeder... since worms are so common and easily detectable - porsche said the breeder got the regular shots for the dog before porsche took it home, but i think the breeder should have realize the dog had worms.

Dawn, absolutely the puppy should have been wormed and given ALL its shots. There are so many backyard breeders out there that don't do the right thing!!!!

Poor puppy. I am guessing that as she knows the puppy had worms she took care of the problem.

Thanks Loppes and Dawn. Great post, Biloxi. While I realize these people don't see what we do, if they had doubts about loyalties, that HOH comp really drew the lines in the sand and yet some still seem oblivious. I don't get it.

<------ fingers crossed that Cassie returns. She is smart, savvy, and was evicted simply out of jealousy, not strategy. I would love to see her play toward a win. .......and Rachael's and Porsche's heads will explode!!

And I agree with you Biloxibelle - this was the worst/unfair BB in history... Are they running out of ideas? They need to fire everyone in their creative department and start again. ALSO, they used to have houseguests with real personality... the last two seasons have had anything BUT people with personality - maybe one or two (Ragan/Brit) - but there aren't anymore Boogy's or Will's or Ronny's - their casting dept is bringing in the most BORING people - Kalia, Porche, Cassie... snore...The only reason Rachel is interesting is because she's drama, but has no real substance...She's no Janelle, and Brenden has nothing worthy to say...he has little character or personality. They gotta find some REAL characters next year. Bring the show back to life.
