I don't think she'll take it. She's smarter than she often lets on and she's extremely tied to her faith (hoping this doesn't get me into the religion debate). She'll smell a rat and won't take it. Sadly (for me), they will keep her either way. IMO.

Funny, Dick is planning on breaking his deal with Jess and Eric by voting out Jess, but he wants Jameka to swear on the Bible that she will honor a deal with him and Dani. And if she makes that deal and breaks it, he will make a big deal about her being a hypocrite and disloyal. He seems to think if you can get someone to swear on something dear to them, they have more of an obligation to honor it than if you just give your word. So I guess we know what his word means. Don't get me wrong, I see nothing wrong with him breaking his word in a deal. This is a game. It is just annoying to see how self righteous he is about it.

Allietex, ITA!!!!!! I know the dislike of Dick's game is not always a popular opinion on this board but I think he is the ultimate in hypocrites. When everyone gets out and watches the tapes, they'll see. I agree that there is nothing wrong with breaking a deal, that's what the game is about-manipulation. But he is oh so indignant (sp?) about his word and never lying.

Allie and Mama, that is so Dick. He is a do what I say, not what I do person. He is also into intimidation and sees only what he wants to see. This is a game so I guess all bets are off at all times. I could never play this game.

Geri, Me either. I'd be so paranoid all of the time. lol I'm always surprised at the lack of paranoia in the house. That's why I like this season because things have flip flopped so much. Unlike last year and the year before where the alliances were drawn in the sand so early in the game and no one socialized outside thier alliance. At least theres something to watch on the feeds. lol

His insistance tha he never lies is going to come back to bite him. He realizes it, that is the only reason he has stuck to the deal this long. He even told Dani that once when she was ready to break it. He has made such an issue of lying that if he does make final 2, a lot of them, especially the ones he has accused of lying, which is nearly everyone, are going to have a field day challenging him about it.

Perhaps Jamecka should take it -- then get the quick HoH and nominate D/D -- explaining that, pursuant to Scripture, she is repenting from making a pact with Evel.

I can't believe they're still thinking of this dumb deal... Well, as soon as they hear of the double eviction they'll forget about the whole deal and I think they'll panick and they do evict Jameka after all. Chicken!!!

I think Jameka should take the deal. It may not sound like much but it would give her a very real possibility to make it to the final 4 and if she is smart and starts playing the game instead of expecting GOD to play it for her, she will realize that there is still a possibility that she could win. Final 4 is nothing to scoff at. As to Dick lying, in the context of this wierd game there is a delecate balance between wanting and demanding truth and loyalty and knowing full well that it's impossible to do it or expect it. THe only thing a player can do is try to anticipate whwn is the time to make a move that involves betrayal. It really would not be "playing the game" if players never lied, or were totally honest.

Spunky, I agree. It is really a dumb idea. D/D are panicking and over-thinking.

If Dick is in the final 2 and people start accusing him of lying, who's to say he's not going to say "of course I lied to you -- it's a game and YOU fell for it -- I outplayed you!" As for Jameka, I think Dick thinks he can use her faith and her "I'm a good person" rants against her to make sure she doesn't back out of a deal. I see that as more gameplay if he can guilt her into keeping her word about something.

If they do make an offer to Jameka and she turns it down, Shame on her. These people for the most part went into the house to win money All the hue and crying over who lies that they All do I think it is just funny The BB house isn't a summer to come in and make new friends, it's a competition to win Money! If I had to make a deal at this point to stay in the house You betcha I would. Because those same people you won't turn against have probably throw you under the bus a dozen Times LOL

Neosporen, thanks for referring to my post about Jameka and the bus. I also think Jameka will go to D/D and try to make a deal before Thursday, I don't see her sitting around for 3 more days doing nothing while her head is on the chopping block. This would be even better for D/D keeping their hands somewhat cleaner in not having to strong-arm her into a deal.

But Seattlemom, it's in "god's hands" now. Jameka doesn't have to play ... she just has to sit back and wait because the winner is pre-ordained.

The point about Dick's lying is that he made such an issue of the fact that he NEVER lied and called everyone else a liar like that was the worst thing in the world. And it was not all game, because he went on and on about it to himself when no one else was around. He really believes this stuff. Then he made such an issue of Jameka's hypocricy, going on and on about it. Sure he can say that he lied and outplayed them, but is it going to overcome their distaste at his hypocricy when he made such an issue of it for everyone else. And I can almost guarantee you, that if he does not make the final 2, he will use the liar tag on whoever he does not want to win, which if Dani is not there, will be everyone. Like has been saie, in Dick's mind, when he does it it is game, when someone else does it, it proves they are a hypocrite.

I didn't know about Dick ranting to himself about the lying. Sounds like Dick may be believing some of his own propaganda? That's too bad. Thursday should prove to be very interesting.

Word, Allietex. That's exactly what flutters my putter. Him and his self-righteousness along with his offsprings. They sit and sit and sit and make fun of everyone and how they'd better not betray them- all the while betraying everyone else. Thing is, nobody confronts them. I was hoping Zach would call Dick on his last minute threats, but instead, he alligns with him. Look out Zach. The knife with your name on it is next. LOL

D/D don't even have to offer Jameka a deal. If Jess goes, Jameka still can't play for hoh, one last time and if Eric gets hoh, at least one of the d's are going up anyway.

D/D are like the mafia. Who do they think they are to "make" someone "swear on a bible"? I can't stand them.

Daniele did not want to make Jam swear on the bible, Dick did. Dani chastised him immediately, telling him it was a sin for a Christian to swear...much less on the bible or to God.

I agree, Tvjunkie. Perhaps Dick should have swore on a pack of cigarettes or Dani on a bandana. Ugh.

why should she live up to the bargain? Dani/Dick aren't living up to the one they had with E/J? If Jessica is voted out, I hope Eric tells Zach and Jam about the deal he had with D/D and how they threw Jessica under the bus.

Jameka wouldnt take the deal and sell out Jessica like that. Not a chance. She has morals unlike others in the house which i wont name names....Forcing someone to swear on the bible for a reality show? Basically sticking a gun to her head and saying do this AND swear on the bible OR ELSE?!?!?! You kidding me?
