Well, it was really dumb of Dick to brag about the coded letter with Daniele for all of us to hear... But the fact that this had no consequence at all and they let him keep the letter is also questionable. What really bugged me about this that it was "planned" before entering the BB House, so the intentions to cheat were there, in defiance of BB rule, of course.... and he bragged about saying: "if so and so... (some celebrity) can do it so can I". All BB did was to tell him he pissed a lot of people off... and to keep quiet.

He plans to call Zach a racist. And use anything personal he can to try and throw him off today. Try and make him lose his job..etc...you know..the usual allowed Dick stuff. I find it very funny how Dick has talked to himself the most, fake laffs at the cameras like he's thinking something that's funny and thinks everyone in the house is "weird" except him and Dani. The way I see it , THEY are the weird ones and the rest are normal. That's why they have such a hard time relating to the other HG. lol He's a scared lil man at this moment. Can't you tell with his nervous laffing. I love it. He acted this way when his a$$ was on the line before.

say rude things about his girlfriend/ex girlfriend and she's not in the house - just like Dick's grandmother - so this is different than jameka bringing up the grandmother how? that's a rhetorical question

I watched one of the youtube videos. Didn't Dick show Dani the letter and point out the Eric/Jen or Jess trust issue? Don't want to make anyone upset but that is proof enough for me.

A radio talk host here was just describing conditions in a federal jail, e.g., trouble among prisoners,etc. Sounds the same as being locked up in the BB house with ED/D.

I guess people who watch games tend to think game play should follow some sort of rules. when in he course of a game, the rules are not followed then the viewer calls Foul. But only when the rules state game play should hit above the belt. In games where anything goes, the viewer gets entertainment from the below the belt hits because according to the no-rule gameplay , the contestant who goes the furtherest and inflicts the most damage is considered the best contestant. So, the question is ..... is this a game with Above the belt rules or a game where NO-rules apply ? Is it fair to say, your opinion here is based on your concepts of the above?

Big Brother is an ADULT game with adult players. Trash talk happens. It's just a game, and some of the ones that did the worst trash talk in previous seasons are now the best of friends. Ex. Beau and Janie.

I hope I am not looked at to be bashing. I am curious at why someone has a different view than I do. There are so many posts and so many threads I might have missed something important. As long as people here can discuss this as adults, I think it broadens everyones view.

i understand that dick's "gameplay" is within the bb rules.. doesn't mean i have to like it or agree with it.. i think planning to slander someone with the purpose of making them lose their job is disgusting.. i don't find his gameplay particularly entertaining.. i think it's abhorrant.. and i wouldn't award him anything based on his tactics... it's ok not to appreciate or like the way someone plays the game.. i also find the donatos two peas in a pod - and both will find that life will return like for like... you get what you put out there.. so that's good enough for me.. personally i hope zach wins.. i've been behind him winning for a long time..

i also honestly wonder.. sincerely.. if you don't have a problem with dick's "gameplay" is it a tactic you yourself would adopt if you were in the game?

I think if it was a game where no rules applied, banners would be allowed, cell phones, letters from home that weren't coded, that actually spelled out alliances etc. - it'd be a free for all So there ARE rules - it's just a matter of BB enforcing them or not, I guess

From what I have heard from Dick and Daniele, Dick only plans on repeating things that Zach has already said in the house.

Thanks, Mssas for the explanation of Dick's plans for the day (several posts above). Sounds like another day in Dick's little world to me. It will be interesting to see how Allison manipulates the TV broadcast to portray Zach as the bad one in what is going to happen as she has for every one of Dick's victims this summer.

I do find it hard to believe that AG would be ok with Dick winning this, with this huge shadow (coded letters being the big one) over the game. I wouldn't think it would be something she'd want on her resume - producing a show in which the winner openly admitted on live feeds that he cheated/attempted to cheat, and she seems to have condoned it, with no penalty.

Well, just to get back to the topic of this thread.... I loved the fact that Jen broke the rules. She'd had it, she was upset and she wanted to eat. So she did. However, she did so in full knowledge of the consequences and she was prepared to take them. She did not complain about it at all and she left the house with dignity. Dick went on and on and still goes on about how wrong it was that she broke the rules. Now Dick has admitted to breaking the rules. We can argue for days about whether it effects the outcome of the game or not, that's irrelevant. They are not supposed to set up secret codes to be tipped off from the outside about events in the game. Otherwise why not just give them a telephone, internet, tv, allow banner planes etc? So Dick should receive a penalty just like Jen did for breaking the rules. Why even debate this? It's pretty clear and has no bearing on whether you like the houseguest or not. I liked Jen but I didn't complain here about her punishment. I just want to see Dick get equal treatment.

a game with rules would be Baseball, football, or basketball, ect... Good sportsmanship is expected. a game where no hold barred would be where hitting below the belt would be accepted. There are rules but very few like anything goes but death . I rephrase my above post to remove no-rules and insert no hold barred play.

Nick, I don't have a problem with Dick's gameplay, nor would I ever be on BB. It's all just entertainment for me.

I agree completely, Kmjm - I liked Jen too - but she did break a rule, there's no argument about that. And she was rightfully penalized. The same should go for Dick.

I Agree with you Milo .... like Jani said in her recent interview: Do you think these people are truly heinous in real life? I think the house amplifies any sort of personality trait that people find annoying. If you are an emotional person, you're going to be an absolute wreck in there. There's a lot more pressure and stress in the BB house than in everyday life. D/D bashing isn't any different to BB6 NH. Did you ever think Dick should be kicked out for his behavior? He hasn't broken any rules. I don't think its acceptable. But he's there to intimidate people. That's strategy. I totally agree with Jani. everyone in the game has there own unique way of winning the game. I say GO DICK! doing a good job.... keep it up! jmo

Yes like a penalty vote against him. If either of the Donoto's win then Zach has to break the TIE. Yeah...that's what should happen!! C'mon AG show us some balls! Pref. blue ones tyvm.

While it makes perfect sense for Dick to be treated by Allison on the same basis as the other HG's, it simply ain't gonna happen.

KMJM, ITA The reason that there is so much discussion about it is that Dick obviously broke the rules, but it is also obvious to many that TBTB will not enforce them... after all he is a Donato. period, end of story!

I think if Dick wins, it's because it is well deserved. But I can't see the jury voting for him over Jameka or Zach. Hurt little feelings always trumps game play. But I think this will give him a lot of opportunities out of the house.
