Tres...excellent. But will they be able to be honest with themselves? I think Dustin, Eric and Zach have that within. But Amber and Jameka are both very unrealistic. Jessica is just, well, kind of a ding-a-ling and lets herself be swayed by Eric. If Zach talks to them about his feelings that Dick is an amazing competitor, perhaps they will see that Dick was strong and consistent throughout the game even though many didn't like his particular type of game. The problem, of course, is that none of them respect Zach.

I think Dani's total focus is and always has been winning the big money, even (or especially) over her father's dead body. No problem with that under ordinary circumstances, everyone was there to win the money to some extent or another. She's never lost sight that objective, and that's what made her a great competitor. It also makes her a shitty daughter, unfortunately, at least in this circumstance. Dick has compromised himself on several occasions in favor of his daughter winning. Baby Dani thinks he should do it one more time, and she should take home the money. Has she worked for it? Absolutely. But so has he, and her butt would be in jury right now if he hadn't come through those last few competitions. He's focused on the team effort, she's focused on Baby Dani. I've said it before, maybe her past experiences have taught her to rely only on herself. But she didn't do this herself, she needed help and she got it in spades from her father. Her completely selfish behavior makes it impossible for me to root for her on any level. Dick's prickish behavior is a total turnoff, but he never lost sight of his daughter and her opportunities in this game. I hope she comes in second.

Klaw...someone once said, "Thank God" and Dick said, "No, Thank Fred." Then that person (I think it was Amber) said "Fred? Who's Fred?" and Dick said, "That's what I call God." It was pretty funny.

I sometimes say to my male friends who are being jerks: Your mother should have named you Richard. When they ask why, I say: because you're such a Dick. LOL Shuts them up real fast. Dick and Daniele are both napping. It must be so stressful to be in there right now.

GAL, your post completely echos my change of opinion in the last couple days...I have had a terrible sore throat/cold and have been laying around a lot. I watched a couple episodes again, plus a few youtubes. My opinion completely changed and I immediately went to vote for Dick...lol. (ETA: I hope the jury can get past their animosity and flip too).

Loppes....Dick is NOT crying. It's that sniffle thing he does when he puts himself to sleep. He says he has done it all his life. He thinks it's weird, too. No, he is not crying. (I have said this so many times when Dick is putting himself to sleep. lol)

ITA, Goddess. I don't think Dick sees it though. I think even when Dani told Zack in the HOH room that her Dad would win the game was her way of convincing Zack to take her and not her Dad to F2 (if that situation was to come about). She worked w/ her Dad only to get herself further. Dick worked non-stop to get them both further.

Thanks, Beek...I still wish there was a different F2, but since I have no control over it, I am rooting for Dick to win...lol. She worked w/ her Dad only to get herself further. Dick worked non-stop to get them both further. 100% agree. I am really glad I didn't erase the episodes. It's amazing how watching it a second time can totally change your perception...much like watching a really good dramatic movie - see things you didn't the first time. lol.

I agree BBC everyone keeps saying she was a great competitor, but everytime she needed things to go her way she would get Dick to do the dirty work, lets not forget this is now his 3rd HOH, and he won a number of POVs etc. I absolutely have no doubt she would never have lasted in that house as long as she did, without Dick being there.....and the very sad thing is, she has no concept of appreciation toward him. I don't care if anyone screams till they are blue in the face...she is way beyond on the way she treats him, and its just an excuse, because of how he was before BB. Well dearie (Dani), he kissed your b*tt, and got you to F2, a simple GENUINE thank you wouldn't kill her.

Beek, I'm with ya except for Jessica. She started off as the bubbly, friendly girl liked by all, the little ray of sunshine as Dick called her. That allowed her to fly under the radar for quite awhile. Had she not let Eric influence her, she might be sitting at the end. But she sold out her friends and teamed up with the Donatos instead of getting them out. I believe she knew it was a mistake and regretted it. I don't know how she'll react to Eric's AP role, which affected her game significantly.
