I don't like the way any of them have played.

Seriously, the only people left that I'm cheering for are Jessica, Jen and Zach.

Still enjoying BB though because I am a desperate BB fan.

Napa, I have seen very few posts excusing the Eric and Dustin incest comments. Even those who try to come up with explanations acknowledge that the remarks were wrong.

No one cheers them on and says it is entertaining and funny. Every post I have seen on here condemn those remarks as unacceptable. That does not mean they do not like the people. You can like someone and still deplore things they say and do.

On the other hand there have been plenty of posts excusing Dicks actions as just game play. Not all Dick fans by any means, but many of them. Some have even called them funny and entertaining. Many people deny that he has even said anything offensive. I hope those people just don't have the feeds or missed the truly disgusting stuff.

I also have been disgusted by the words and actions of both camps. I do not have a problem with condemning the actions of even my most favorite players. I try to remember that these are real people put into an artificial setting and that we need to make allowances for human nature. I guess what gets me the most about Dick is that his remarks were not the result of anger, ignorance, or stress. They were cold bloodied, planned, and even practiced comments, made with the most vicious of intentions.

I think it's crazy that once again a large contingnet seems to expect all the HGs to act in a politically correct manner 24/7.

These are real people and they say real things. Some may be biased or prejudiced. Some may off off color humor. They are real people people!! LOL

I think it's very hypocritical for a bunch of people posting anonmyously on an internet chat room to judge these very real people so harshly. ("he who has not sinned should cast the first stone" and all that jazz.) JMO.

What Gina said.

The one thing I'm looking forward to if Dick is evicted this week is this board returning to it's normal pre-Dick self.

The hate threads were funny in the beginning, but then they just swelled and took over the entire board. Honestly, you can't enter a single thread without reading the venom.

When Dick makes repeated sexual comments to people without any inside knowledge related to their real life experiences, it leaves him wide open to criticism and speculation.


Dick had a long convo with Jen one evening, outside. Jen admitted to him that she'd never had an organism, never engages in oral sex, and various other things. Many of Dick's comments to Jen related to information SHE gave him.

If, by some miracle, like Jess puts up Justin and he goes, the hamsters should tackle ED with humour.

If he starts a rant, they should all put on shirts over undershirts, like he does, hang chains from their jeans, and scream at each other that they're liars, hypocrites, etc. They should yell at the toasters, the chairs, whatever, and bang on pot lids.

They'd have to end up laughing, and ED could do nothing but stand there like an idiot.

When they had to give Dick special counseling and extra screening to get him in the house, they should have never let him in.

When he dumped tea on Jen's head he should have been kicked out.

No reason for him to really have been in the house for a long while now.

I like the way Jameka has decided to deal with Dick,when she announced that as of 10:18pm (on the night of Dick verbally attacking her) outloud and to the BBAD audience, that he no longer exists.....and she hasn't said another word to him, since! That to me is the best thing to do.

He still tries to say things to her, berate her and she ignores him...you can tell it bothers him that he can't get any kind of reaction out of her.

I hope that Dick is evicted Thursday...I've had enough of him on Big Brother.

Dick acts just like a child throwing a temper tantrum. If you respond to it, its like throwing fuel on the fire. if you ignore it, you have power that bothers him.

"He still tries to say things to her, berate her and she ignores him...you can tell it bothers him that he can't get any kind of reaction out of her. "

I saw that last night on ShoToo....Dick sat out in the BY trying to get a rise out of Jameka with nasty remarks and Daniele walked up to him and told him to stop it and he left. Then a bit later, he came back out without Daniele and started up again...saying nasty things to Jameka who was unaffected because "Dick no longer exists" to her.

Yes, you could see that it was frustrating Dick to no end that his bullying abuse was falling on deaf ears. Watching an impotent bully be frazzled by that calm young woman was actually entertaining.

I like Jameka's method of dealing with Dick, too. And I don't for one minute believe she meant the reference to his mother as an epithet. She was reminding him that his mother is a Christian and if ED is going to call Jameka a Christian B word that must mean his mother is one too.

And I thought Jameka looked absolutely marvelous on TV tonight. She's very pretty. The prettiest woman in the House, IMO.

Did they really give him special counseling? Do we know for what?

And do we know what had them concerned that they had to give him extra screening?

I'm just glad BB is playing the organ music when ever Jameka tries to conduct services on the aired shows. Thank you CBS and BB. I want her gone, not because of religion but how she dared use God in this show. kail was also a christain but managed to conduct herself fairly properly instead of making a spectical of herself and the general christain community.

The counseling and stuff came from Dick himself.

Dick had special counseling before he went into the house? Wow, good job CBS!

For next season, I would like to see Big Brother introduce a "Time Out" room - when a HG, like Dick, really starts to rant at people and go over the line, to the point that he is inciting them to want to become physical (Jameka waving her hands so she doesn't strike him) - then BB calls that player into the TO room for an hour or so - they don't have to even say anything to them or try and counsel them - just defuse some really bad stuff like ED has been doing. His comments on religion, Ambers' personal problems, etc., have been so way over the line that they are beyond belief. I know that this 'drama' is what BB and CBS want, and it can make for good ratings and lots of YouTube downloads - but I sear, unless they find a way to handle this sort of thing in the future, it's just going to get more outrageous, and someone is seriously going to get hurt during the game. There have been other incidents in the past when HG's have almost come to blows. And quite frankly, if ED is smart, he won't be going anywhere when he leaves the CBS studios without a bodyguard - for awhile!

Amber and Jameka might need body guards too. They say Maggie did also.

Yeah, they should all get 'em, probably! And Showtime should televise the post-finale wrap party - THAT would get ratings!
