Suspicious is right.I said this in another thread and I still believe that the producers are coaching this Dani/Daddy thing along with those two. The viewers did not get thier happy ending last year with Will and Janelle so this year I believe towards the end of the show Dani will suddenly see the light and forgive her father and there will be hugs and "I Love Yous",and father and daughter will be reunited at last. does this mean in the 2nd POV contest when Dani was on the block, that there must have been a very strong magnet on the curling ball she was using that was extremely positive with the magnet that must have been under the center line? I knew she couldn't hit the center line that many times on her own. She said herself, she doesn't have a lot of upper body strength.

Don't you mean off and on for 7 years? Anyone here have a 13 year old kid? Estrangement is the name of the game. Yes..sorry.

Man I don't know who irritates me more. Amber and the tears, Kail and her whacked out game. Some pro football player stalking some girl or the daddy vs daughter drama. Seems all to conveniant to be happening all at the same time. Change the script BB.

Hey was checking in to see if I missed anything...still not sure lol. Spent all day trying to deal with real life BS and not sure I made any progress and my blasted car has no breaks which is NOT helping at all! Anyway couple of thoughts on the Dani/Dick think. At first I totally believed it was a setup, esp after hearing about their BB6 connection. BUT there has got to be some truth to it. If not then someone should hire Dick cause he's the best actor I've ever seen in my life. Their most gut wrenching convo's have been in private and have gone on and on. If it was all BS would that happen? And with Dick being torn to shreds and sobbing? And keeping his kewl and begging? And BTW Christiii went to that link you posted. Not sure what made you think Dani's BF is such a great guy. He's cute, but unless it's buried in there all I saw was a spoiled little girl who was complaining about something in every post OR requesting something expensive and asking anyone to buy it for her. I've never quite seen any Friendster/MySpace type page quite like that. Looked more like a list to Santa then a friend chat page. Telling you I just don't get it. And last, if they are going for that happy reunion for us, wouldn't they give us someone more likeable than Dani (and to some folks Dick?). Seems like very few of us like both of them lolol. More than anything, what makes me think it is at least largely legit is both Dick and his son explained what her personality is like (in rather negative terms) and over and over I've seen her do EXACTLY what they described. That seems far more real than staged to me. And swimsuit, as I understand curling, too much strength is a bad thing, since it's on ice and all. So being weak may have helped. Of course, I am always open to believing BB is cheating lolol. I just can't see this being a total set up.

I already had thought there was a magnet under that veto board they could turn on when they wanted a winner.

Zachsmom, I don't even "favor" Daniele for I do find her <100> at times... that and I have been brainwashed by the <100> to destroy all that <100> need destroyed, now but I don't think it's a matter of giving someone a pass just 'cause of their age. I am saying, if anything, why should age determine how you should act. Dick is the oldest person in the house and he behaves very rude at times. I just think saying that someone should be acting a certain way by a certain age is unrealistic. Age is not enough to create a caring personality, strong maturity level and emotional stability

Chere...I do feel, and have felt and posted all along that I believe Eric is 100% a CBS plant. I take any info posted about him w/a salt shaker full of salt. To me that makes a great deal of sense, since I can't see them ruining the game of a regular HG and making them do what we say, not how they want to play. I listed a mess of reasons why I feel he is a plant...lemme know if you want me to list it again. I have wondered if they really wanted to use Dick, found out that he had a fight with his 'partner' and given Ali/Arnie's creativity we had an instant theme. I wouldnt put that past them. But I just can't see Dick being that good an actor, esp when they are alone. I don't ever see any secret looks of love or compassion etc. either.

I wonder if these people are HYPER aware of what their "role" is and they are playing it all up for the cameras? Does Nick really want to be seen this way? The guy is a teacher and yet he's not aware as a role model he looks like a fool for sniffing around some girl 24/7 and offers nothing more? Do the father and daughter really want their laundry seen like this? Why is it that son/brother right from the beginning just knew people would want to read about all that stuff? Is Kail really this oblivious yet runs some town on the planet Mars? Would a mother really keep babbling about her demons with drugs and cry at the drop of a hat if she found a split end? Just seems odd. And this whole AP thing just doesn't add up. No numbers are ever shown to validate any actual votes. Just an odd year for this show. Seems the drama is forced and the personalities they want out there front and center are on overkill. Also odd that this year of all years Showtime picked it up.

Lurknomore, I totally agree. D and D are not that good at acting. It was very gut wrenching for them both and had me feeling their pain. However, I do have my suspicion that BB could have encouraged Dick to talk to her like he did to Amber in the storage area anddddd I have this feeling that BB pushed for the timing of the talk to happen when Showtime was on, imo

And for the record.. Honestly I don't even care if the Dick or Danielle thing is real. I think it's boring as hell to watch. It just seems to forced. Too planned and too played out.

How old is Daniele? Didn't she say at the beginning of the show in the DR or as part of the intro that she was 26or 27 but was going to say she was younger? Didn't she and Dick talk in the bathroom or the bedroom on one of the first two shows and she told him she had told everyone else that she was 20 and would he please keep her story for her? Am I going totally nuts???

Maybe this year's show seems so different because most of the hamsters were either fans of the show or had watched the show by choice or given tapes of previous shows so they each came in with their own theories of the best way to win. I only watch the showtime feeds but they have mentioned many times about being on showtime. Today, Jen "innocently" made sure we got to see all angles of her body while she was exercising in the backyard. She knew which camera was on and looked into it quite a few times. That girl has muscles!!

Geri I think you may be right. I think this current group knows this game to well and plays it up to the cameras.

One last comment...that page of Dani's really struck me that she is NEVER happy and seems to enjoy make sure everyone knows that fact. Even when she talks about how good something or someone is, she is sad/depressed/moping or making doom and gloom dramatic comments. I think if she spent a few days trying to navigate my life she would have her head in the oven. Seriously!!! Why would someone repeatedly post about how miserable she is, while posting a gazillion pics of her looking happy and having fun??? I don't get it at all (btw she looked so good as a brunette I almost didn't recognize her). And did anyone catch the threat about how she would sure they would be sorry (or pay forgot which) for firing her BF? Charming tone. And Swimsuit...LOL
