I would love to see Erika win HOH and vote out Mike. How appropriate that would be. Will and Mike were so arrogant to call it their show, then call Erika and Janelle the B word just because they woke up and smelled the crap that was handed them. I hope they both get an ear full when they get to sequesture.

If Erika wins HOH, she deserves it. Think about it, she would have out competed the best competitor and out manipulated the best manipulator. Sounds to me like the best playerto me. And it is not like she hasn't won anything either. Sure she floated at the beginning, but that was game play. Just because you don't like that style of play, sometimes a player has no choice for awhile. And at least she stayed in contact with the power in the house. She did not sit around and mope like Diane. Don't get me wrong. I don't like her. There is something about her that bugs me, but she is playing her ass off to stay in this game. And if she wins HOH and scumbags Janie and takes Boogie, Janie has no complaint coming since she just did the same thing to Will. I did not like her goodbye speech. It was arrogant and condescending. She should remember that Will is going to be in the sequester house and he will have a vote. Guess she figured she would not get his vote anyway, but that is stupid. Will might have been pissed enough at Janie to vote against her especially if she boots Boogie, but her cutesy little speech just might sway him against her.

Erika came into the game at a disadvantage. There were alliances already formed in the house, between people from the same seasons, but the only person from her season hated her guts. She had little choice but to float. What else was she going to do? Stand up and shout, "Hey, who wants to be in an alliance with me?" All she could do was try to survive until things began to fall into place for her. And it did. And when you look at it, just what more did Dani do than her. She did not win any more competitions, she did not control any alliances, she got played by CT, but everyone talks about how great Dani was. In their first season, Dani got to F2, Erika to F4. They both lost. You know, say what you want to about CT, they did get the girls to F4. If Erika had won the veto and had the chance to take out Janelle, she would not have hesitated. Even if she found out what she did about the guys. She would have laughed about it, dumped Janie and then tried like hell to win the final HOH. She did not care about Janie and how she was played. She cared about her possibility of winning the money. Which is exactly what she should have done and it is what Janie should have done.

Erika's only chance of winning it all is to evict Janelle. She was smart up to this point, but if she really wanted to win, she would work with Boogie to get Janelle out. Kind of stupid to be mad at him now, and throw away 450K. Win the money first, then be mad at Boogie after the show. Her emotions will cost her the big money, she will regret that after the show.

With Erika, her emotions always get in the way. That nonsense about Boogie and the mother of his children on live TV. Honestly. For once, her emotions played to her advantage, but in the end . . . ? I just have no respect for her.

I feel sorry for Erika. I do. Sure she set herself up to be played. Sure she should have seen what Boogie was doing. Sure she should have noticed his lack of interest. That is no excuse for what he did and especially for what he said. Who could have known someone was talking so badly behind your back, even if it was Boogie. And what did she do to deserve his humiliating comments? I'll give her a break. I've been fooled a few times myself. It's easy when you are on the outside looking in. (At least with Diane and Drew, he had the sense not to talk smack about her.)

Throwing Erika a bone here, it was actually HER speech that Janie used when Janie evicted Will. Erika told Janie what to say, in order to help Janie win back Marcellas' vote, and vindicate Howie at the same time. Although Erika gave Janie the speech to use, something tells me that Erika will have another useful speech tucked under her ribs, in order to sway the jury in HER favor. Ya never know!! The jury might "buy" it, since all but the S6'ers wanted Janie gone. And if Erika points out to the jury that it was HER idea to convince Janie to boot Will, the jury might be impressed with that.

I guess I would respect Erika more and believe her sweet little talks with Janie if I did not know that she already knew everything that was they said about Janie. Did it bother her? Of course not, she took part in it and laughed about it. If she was so outraged on Janelles part, she would have spoken up earlier. She only got indignant when she realized that SHE was being played.

Allie, true, VERY true. I remember reading the live feed posts, when Erika and Janelle were having their girl talks. I was wondering the same thing, I'll have to admit. Why NOW? If she was really that concerned about Janie, why didn't she stick up for her THEN? My guess is that Erika didn't know how this was all going to play out, and was being selfish about not telling her those things. Plus, Erika knew that at the time, Will had Janie wrapped around his finger so tight! If Erika had said anything, it would have gotten back to Will immediately.

I still think Janelle should be the winner now that Will is gone, but props to Erika -- she has finally made a case for herself. I've seen alot of admiration for Dani on this board, but to me, what just happened between Erika and Janelle underscored just how bad Dani screwed up. I believe that if Dani had kept her cool, and had approached Erika from a rational point of view the night before she was nominated, instead of getting drunk and emotional, she could have helped Erika see how Chilltown was playing her. Logic was on her side -- at that time, it really would have been a better move for Erika to have nominated Will than to have nominated Dani. At very least, if she had failed, she'd have known she did all she could.

And if Erika points out to the jury that it was HER idea to convince Janie to boot Will, the jury might be impressed with that." -------------------------- It was her idea in order to save her own butt, no way would she have come up with it otherwise. The fact that it was Will worked in Erikas favour. Survival tactic that worked all the same. I don`t think she got the help from CT as Janelle did, however she did get help from the other hgs along the way which Janelle didnt get. Erika can boast she survived 5/6 evictions but was she really the target in any of them? Janie was always a target and used her competitiveness to win Veto rather than crying up for sympathy. Saying that and although I`m a huge Janie fan I really wont be too upset if Erika did win at this stage. p.s. After reading a few threads tonight somewhere in the back of my mind there`s a niggle that Boogie and Erika are still playing together and we`re going to be in for a shock unless Janie wins HOH

Tissy, I agree it was her idea to save her own butt. I'll bet she uses that as a bargaining tool against Janelle if they are in the final 2. Saying that might get the votes for Janie however from Will and Boogie. This will be fun to watch when Boogie and Will have to vote for Erika and Janie...what a hoot that will be!

I remember Janelle and Will having a conversation about Erika attempting to make a pre-show alliance with everyone. She called Janie on the phone and even showed up at her work. I think Will even said she called him at the office. So if Erika went into the house without a pre-show alliance (which I'm not convinced she didn't have one or more) it wasn't for lack of trying. I don't think Erika deserves to win 500K in anyway. If a floater wins AllStars it would just make BB a joke and I don't want that to happen.

Erika was NOT the first with the idea of getting rid of Chilltown and the girls going to the F2 together. We found out on the live feeds that after Janelle got the last VETO, (Janelle and Erica were in the HOH room alone), that she tried to get Erica to vote out Mike (on the fast forward live show) and she would be the tiebreaker and they would both go to the F2 together. But Erica didn't vote out Mike, instead voted out CG. Remember seeing both girls coming back to the couches on the live show. That is also why Mike was panicking so much, he thought they had turned on him. For some reason CBS doesn't want us to think Janelle has brains. CBS refuses to show Janelle in a strategic light.

Naja~loved the beagle/german shepard analogy. My only concern is that Jani is the bunny!!!!! Remember her talking about Will being the fox and she is the bunny? I really hope Janie wins this final HOH. This is making me nervous. I still don't trust Erika. If Erika were to win All Stars~It would be a disgrace.

I have to give to Janie for kicking Will out! I don't think Erika is going to do the same because that is her only way of winning no one wants to see Mike win the money so she's the winner right there. Mike will probably keep Erika too because he thinks that Will's gonna work his magic in the jury house getting everyone turned against Erika. So if luck is Janie's way she derserves to win the $$$$$$$.

Not having read the whole thread, what I want to say is that, it really doesn't matter what we think. Yes, we as the viewers and CT as the defeated know all about Erika's fancy last minute dance steps. But the Jury has no idea! Boogie might talk about it, but he might be way too bitter to lobby votes for Erika. Will, I don't know what that boy is thinking at this point. I thought he might like a Janie win since he had a lot to do with it. But Will was also instrumental in saving E many times. Danie wants to vote for the best player. We all laughed when E said... I outplayed her..(pp).. she might think I am the best game player! Now I'm not so sure if Danie won't do just that. Then again, there's still a little part of me that's worried. I'm still not sure if Erika would just take Boog to F2. B is gonna tell her to boot out the best competitor in the history of BB. He might goat her that, "...then you could go tell the Jury your part in kicking Kurby to the curb....." EEEEEk, need to go back to real work...

If Erika goes up against Boogie, I believe Boogie very likely has at least Will and Danielle's votes. Erika I believe for sure would have Howie's and likely Janie's unless Erika evicts her In that case it would probably be a 3rd vote for Boogie. Sooo... maybe Erika should throw part 3 of the HOH to Mike so she won't have to bring or evict Janie. Let Mike win and bring her over Janie - right?? I think Erika arguably deserves the win because she can credited with the demise of the best players in BB history - Dani, Will and possibly Janelle. It's not like Erika is there because of luck or because she rode someone else's coattails. She stayed off of everyone's poo list - did not get evicted on her own merits, forged the right alliances at the right times, and made some very strategic decisions. She also was no slouch in the comps.

Erika is going to get Boogie to take her to f2 and throw last HOH. She wont lose Janies vote that way.

I wanted to start a new thread called "Coat-tails-R-us" thats when I noticed no new threads allowed. Erika and Boogie are worse than floaters. All they did was ride the coat tails of the better players. I will be honest and admit, I was thrilled when Janelle and Erika teamed up. Was great to see the Ho's before bro's take over. I have never really liked Erika, but if it would of played out like she promised, would of been great ( and yes I am biased would of been great for Janelle). But of course Erika is showing her true colors, and it is more about the H'o caputring the Bro's love. Blahhh. If finale two is Boogie and Erika, it is all because they rode the coat tails of the really good players. I was liking the Janelle Will flirtmance, but I thought was the best bet to boot him. Now that was all for nothing. I hope I am wrong, that Erika is just playing Boogie, but it doesnt look that way.
