There have been several comments on several threads about how boring the hosue will be after Dick leaves. For the most part, this prognostication is based on the view that the LNC5 will stick together and just spend the next few weeks eliminating Dani, Jen and Zach.

I disagree. I think it will get far more inetresting after Dick leaves. I think what will happen is the HG's will be able to refocus and do some honest-to-God strategizing and realigning.

Indeed, we also have comments on several threads about Jen working on a woman's alliance, about how Amber and Jen would really like to see Dustin go, how Dani and Jen may start to work together and possibly bring in Jess, etc. So many realignments possible based on what we have seen among all of the HG's.

There are clearly underlying alliances and agendas in the house. But until Dick and his bombastic anger and hatred for all of them is out of the house, they will all circle the wagons to defend themselves.

I do not see it as boring when Dick leaves. I see it as the point when the real game can begin.

Everybody is entitled to their opinions, and mine is it WILL be boring. I've seen nothing from the other houseguests to indicate any strategy whatsoever. Yes, there will be backstabbing, hasn't there already been, and people will go in and out of alliances, haven't they already, there will STILL be the foul language, there are more potty mouths in that house besides Dick, and the tears will continue. The only interesting thing I foresee happening is the fab 5 realizing they weren't as close as they thought. Once the true colors come out in the open they will definetly rethink many mistakes they made along the way....and NOT pertaining to Dick at all.

Dick won the veto. He isn't going anywhere.

IF it comes down to the final 5 I see Eric and Jess in deep crap. Jameka will follow Amber and Dustin.IMO

I bet the DR is trying to get Dick to save himself, he is more entertaining(in good and bad ways) than Dani

Well, it will definitely be... quieter, and with quiet comes boredom, at least in the BB house where we expect to see some action, good or bad.

I'm really after the unmasking of America's Player... it almost happened but I look forward to a jaw-dropper situation very soon even with Dick gone, there still room for surprises...

Finally a thread after my own heart!! It will not be boring...and it won't make me sick like when I hear that filth spew out of Dick's mouth. I am from a whole other generation I guess cause I can not take those sick remarks. I can stand the fff's but not that vile sick stuff like raping someone til they bleed...I was upset to think people would actually talk like that, and in front of his daughter! I thought only degenerates talked like that and yet here he is so popular. Shaking my head!!

Since I don't enjoy listening to Eric, Jameka, Dustin or Jen speak.

Yes, It will be VERY boring if Dick leaves.

Well, they're going to have to look for other targets after Dick leaves, I might be entertained watching Eric running around like a duck in one of those shooting booths they have at the fair, the prize being a stuffed bunny. I can parlay the prospect of Jen or Dani getting HOH and nominating Dustin and Eric into a reason for watching the game. I'd like to see Jen and Zach get much further in the game. Dani doesn't interest me at all, neither do Jameka or Jess. Amber just disturbs me, if she lasts much longer I'll be surprised.

I just finished watching 3 hours of beer pong and Amber drying her hair,putting on makeup and talking about how much her boyfriend loves her boobs. If that's anything to go by...... BORING. It'll be time to cancel Showtime.

So except for his rants, just what else has Dick done that was interesting? His stategy sessions have not been the most stellar in BB history to say the least. He has not gotten a single person evicted evem when he was in a position of power. I do not find him interesting at all. Take away his rants and he is nothing.

Without a doubt, BB8 without Dick will be a yawnfest.

I do look forward to seeing who takes the blame for everything when he leaves. It will probably still all be Dick's fault, even when he's gone.

Every year the same thing is said about a certain houseguest or other, but the show goes on and except for one season, it remained interesting. There is no way that the LNC is going to be like the Nerd Herd. There are already fractures in the group, and let the other side win a HOH or two and things can change in a hurry.

I am ususally pretty much a professional lurker here but sometimes I like to put my 2 cents in.
I don't think the producers like Jen. Looks like Jen will go up.... so look for some more interference from the DR to try to save Dick.
I am not happy about that cuz Jen is my favorite and I am looking for some sort of miricle.

Allie, he stirs the shit, calls people out in front of other players on their alliances/strategies/lies/comments regarding other players. He ramps up the paranoia of other players, makes them squirm, gives them cause to bond over their mutual hatred (and show us their true colors when they get busy with their trash-talking), causes us all to take pause over the whether the other players are smart or cowardly to stay out of his way when he's blasting off. Essentially, he doesn't give the vaguest crap what anyone else thinks, and it shows in his interactions. He provides a great contrast for Jen, who similarly could care less about what anyone else thinks but goes about it very differently. I doubt I'd like Jen as much without her on again/off again dynamic with Dick. His escapade with the lid-and-spoon cymbal yesterday morning was a riot.

I can't name another player in the house who has contributed so mightily to the discussions on these threads. I certainly can't name another player in the house who has made it so interesting. Do I like him? I don't think so, his mouth is filthy, his brain goes places I don't even want to think about and he really lost me on the ice tea thing. But he is entertaining, nonetheless.

Dick is fun and entertaining. I do not think I will be able to stay awake to watch the nerd herd.

I don't find ED the least bit entertaining, and for me the fun will begin when he leaves. Can't wait to see the LN5 cannibalize themselves.

Add me to the list of those who are not entertained by Dick's rants or other activities, in fact I find his behavior both boorish, boring, and disgusting. I am still watching the show, but leave the room or fast forward when he is being shown.
I agree, when Dick is gone, the game will begin, and it won't be boring-it might even involve some intelligent scheming and strategizing... I hope to see it.

I gave this scenario in another thread, but being the thread killer that I am, it got no mention..lol.

The scenario after Dick leaves (with apologies to Alltel Wireless)

Eric: Well, we could have a butter eating contest.

Let's see what Jen is up to (turns on monitor)

Jen: I made cookies!!

Eric: Jen, we're in the good people cave!!

Amber cries because she and Dustin are so happy to be in the good people cave..and so on and so forth..

Now, to watch this tread die..I'm so sorry...

This house will be boring after Dick leaves...and get old because all they will talk about is how happy they are that Dick has left and how horrible of a person he is. Those five will stick together...it truly is the nerd herd all over again...

That's how I feel, Puzzled. Dick bores me to tears.
