I understand what you are saying Carmil, great point. Dick did have a chance of being hugely popular. If he was a bit more sophisicated in his use of words and not cruel to women.
But, that is the fun side of watching someone that is socially unexceptable 24-7!

Thank you everyone. I was just wondering b/c I have never personally been involved in a situation like Jen is with Dick. Knowing me, I would probably handle it like Spunky and Northwest. However, I wouldn't be able to do so without crying and would probably end up a nervous wreck afterwards. The fact that Jen doesn't let it affect her emotionally or game wise is still admirable.

For Jen's sake, I really hope this week goes as planned and she is able to stay in the house. If so, she could ironically play a significant part in the direction of the game. When push comes to shove, Dick's destructive behavior affected others opinions of him and could ultimately cost him the game. I hope the house is able to evict him and Jen is there to help make that happen. I couldn't think of a better way for her to make a statement and obtain vindication than that!!! Actually, now that I think about it, that would be so much better than having Dick thrown out, but that's JMO. Go Jen!!!!!!

Ok America saw Teagate. What is Dicks popularity level at now? I never can find that CBS page. Oops nevermind, I just found it. He is the most popular houseguest. Who would have thunk it?

I agree, Wood. I have a feeling that Dick was AC this week, but who knows.

It's always been bogus. Support for Dick is not at 24.7% on this board, regardless of my opinion. Dick has very vocal supporters. He's a controversial character. Much easier to skew popularity polls.

The popularity poll isn't bogus. There are a lot of people that go and vote. Not everyone who watches BB is on this board.

And FWIW, I voted for Dick as my fav HG.

So what are the poll numbers on this board? I'm really bad at doing those kinds of things, or I would..I'd just say "most favorite"..

Janie was always #1 in her years. That certainly wasn't bogus

Aside to Costacat: I never would have known you were that big of a supporter for Dick.

Comparing Janie to Dick is like comparing chocolate cake to brusselsprouts.

Hey, you are the one who said it is always bogus, so that was why I said it.

It has always been bogus. Janelle had vocal supporters, too. Her followers were stuffing that poll with votes. Janelle's popularity was much, much, much higher than Dick's. This season, none of the houseguests stand out, except for Dick.

SanFran- I just wanted to tell you that Jen was not the one who brought up the touching thing in the first week. I said this before because everyone keeps going back to Jen starting it. (not saying you are- cause I know where you stand) I also agree with all your posts SanFran!

If you watch the recording of the show with the popcorn challenge- Jen doesn't want dick to be a scraper (for the butter) and he thinks they should alternate, and she says we don't have to..then DICK mentions the part about him not touching her- not jen..and then they show jen whispering to Kail- not saying it to everyone (like many accuse her of), that she doesn't want him touching her.

Like i said before- we have only seen the first week through cbs' eyes- nobody had the feeds yet-so we saw the edited version. Who knows what filthy things dick said- we certainly know what he is capable of. His son was asked if his dad would try hitting on the younger girls in the house, and he said that he was sure his dad would try hitting on them..maybe he tried hitting on jen the first week and she rebuked his efforts, and that's why he abhors her so much. I get the feeling something happened that we didn't see that first week.

All I know is he is relentless with her On thursday he smacked the golf club down on the counter in front of her and threatened to ruin her life outside the house where she would have no life and no job, and he would see to it.
Every chance he gets he taunts her. something is very wrong with him.

Of course it was higher. Janie was the best. She was loved by America for sure with always winning AC. I wonder who would win AC if that was offered on BB8? That might prove interesting!

Ruby, you can also use that in reverse... we don't know WHAT kind of things Jen said to Tick off ED in that first week...IMHO she is as bad as he is as far as the bickering cause she eggs it on...she relishes him doing it...

I agree, Milosmom. Dick would never have a chance to win AC. That's a totally different thing. A bit more predictable than CBS and their "poll" numbers.

and who knows what filthy things Jen said to make him think she didn't want him to touch her? We don't know so all we can do is speculate. She obviously made some comment for him to say that. I don't understand the surmising that he hit on her, there is no indication of that in the recording either.

If Janelle was on the CBS poll right now she would still be #1 even if she weren't in the house!

By the way, Dick would have been neutered by any number of players in BB 7. Howie, Will, James and even Kaysar would have had Dick in tears or evicted by now.

even if jen did say something insulting, good grief he can get over it and play the game! they've been in the house 5 weeks and he still can't let it go!
