I mostly like Eric as a person, though there are times I wish he would not chose to go the places that he does. I really like him as America's Player because he's tried to be as positive as possible about the entire thing. Being in an alliance with him may not always get us what we want (and I was way more disappointed in the Mike eviction than the Nick one) but it's a compromise we have to make to keep the alliance going.

I also took it all to mean we were in an alliance, to help and work with Eric to get him to the end. IF we were in the house and in an alliance that is what we would be doing...working with and helping each other get to the end...only in the house we would both stand a chance of winning the big bucks. In this alliance ONLY Eric stands that chance, but hey, he is in our alliance so lets give him that chance.

Poor Eric...I feel so sorry for him tonight. Whoever sent the banner should be ashamed of themselves!!!

I think that Dustin will stand true to Eric and he will bring the others on board with him. I think that Dick thinks way too much of his pull and himself.

I agree a lot can happen! I really don't want to see Eric leave just yet. I want that jury vote! I really think he can turn things around provided he doesn't panic.

What kills me about this is that Jess and Eric goofing around together was the only thing that has made the feeds bearable this year. I'm not too fond of them individually (between his mouth and her voice ) but they were so much fun together. Now they are both so sad. Man I wish that banner had never happened!

I so agree with you about Eric and Jessica. Her voice is grating and he can be truly annoying with his manic ways but I like them together. It seemed fun and innocent.

I don't have the feeds, but what I have seen of the youtube videos they looked so cute together. I really wish he and Jess would talk...dunno what he would/could say to her at this point...but they need to talk!

Lainee, I don't think he can talk to her because there is nothing he can say to prove his innocence. It's a case of having to prove that something doesn't exist and you can't do it. She was already doubting him because of Amber and the way Amber occupies his time. It's one of the reasons I think she wanted the two of them to align with Dick to get out Amber & Dustin (mainly Amber!) Then the banner came, linking their names together and then she caught them talking last night...though it was just talking, nothing else. He tried to talk to her last night and she shut him down. Now he's hurt that she doesn't trust him.

Everyone gets so suspicious in this game. They think any old innocent talk is some kind of plotting.

That's for sure! As much as I like Big Brother, I would probably be another Kail in the house! ROFL

Do we know if Eric can reveal he's America's Player and that he was forced to vote that way? What has he got to lose?? (beside the 10 grands) and maybe he could be saved this week.

I'm with you! LOL I think if someone said the sky was blue, someone else would take it as a code. I just hope that they work this out and Kail leaves and Eric stays.

Spunky, I don't think he can tell but I'm sure he wishes he could right now, if only to be able to tell Jess the truth. I told myself I wouldn't get all caught up in this and, for the most part I've held to that (with this house it's not that hard to turn the feeds off!), but I'm just bummed that it's all come down this way. The little bit of fun is gone from the house now.

Spunky, if Eric revealed he was AP (which isn't allowed), they would get even madder at him....because that knowledge would mean he's been lying a lot more than they know.

But that was a condition put by BB, they offered him to do it and he accepted, so what, he's doing it for the twist not to be mean to them. Unless he signed that he cannot reveal it... oh well.. I guess he accepted the risk of seeing his game ruined by the twist..

It would be a complete disaster for Eric to reveal that he is America's Player. It makes him totally useless as an ally because he can't promise anything right down to even who he will vote for. This voting thing will just get more and more impossible for him the farther he gets into the game.

If he told them, he would lose the AP position, so essentially, he'd be giving up money to come clean the the HMs. Plus, if he could then tell them what America was ordering him to do, they might forgive him forgive him for his past sins. Hmmmm....forgiveness is not the strong suit of the the people in this house, so it wouldn't work! But I do hope they show them a video after revealing the twist and I hope Jess feels at least a little bad for voting him out (if that is what happens)

I don't think it will happen. I don't see them turning on Eric.
