Chelsia and I think along the same lines. Doesn't matter to me as long as Matt is kicked.

The thing about James is he needs to stop acting so damn uppity. His words - the only thing you have in this game is your word...(which he gave to Natalie to not put her or Matt up or backdoor them)....then he went on to say how Ryan broke his word, how all the others broke their words...they shook his hands and lied to him...blah blah blah...So now he has to be able to explain how his move this week is any different than what everyone else did Don't get me wrong..this is a game and you need to do what you can to win...but don't stand there and act like you are better than everyone else and you don't lie to get ahead. I'm trying to think of anyone that hasn't lied and maybe it's Natalie...I don't think she has lied to Matt (I could be wrong...so don't shoot me if I'm wrong)

ITA, Emm...it's not that he put Matt on the block that is bothersome, it's how he went about doing it. James went on and on about how he got a second chance and was going to show everyone how it should be played, only to do almost same thing to Matt. I say "almost" because at least Matt had a chance to save himself with the POV. Btw, I read that James told Chelsia that if she doesn't win HOH and he gets put on the block it's her fault. That's laughable. She wasn't the one on the disco ball making promises she didn't intend to keep. I really don't know how anyone could trust him after this week. I will be very surprised if James wins BB at this point. JMO.

ITA Emm/Klaw His "i'm so much better than everyone" superior attitide is enouph .... this is the conversatin you were talking about. James - this week is all in your hands. if you i go home it's your fault. Chel - then i'll win HoH. James - i did. sickening If Nat wins HOH and puts up Chel and James .... lets just see how well he treats her then ..... those 2 will be fighting becasue he will be BLAMING chel for not winning HOH. Last nights show he hugged Nat ...said he loved her and he will NOT break his word .... shook matts hand also and told him. I just can't wait till that smug look on his face is gone for good and out of this house.

For those of you interested in seeing it again. Here was the deal between Nat and James during the HOH comp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPXXPvRKQP4 IMHO, there were no loop holes in his deal with Natalie and ITA, Bb...he not only confirmed it with Natalie, but Matt as well.

But did James actually promise Nat that he wouldn't put her or Matt up, AND that he wouldn't backdoor them? Because I thought the deal was just that he wouldn't NOMINATE them, which he didn't. I didn't hear him promise not to backdoor either of them...although I guess he did promise they were safe. Still. It's semantics, I know, but... I don't have the live feeds, though, so can only go by what they feel inclined to show us!

Carmen, there wasn't any talk about nominations, POV, or backdooring during the HOH comp. James gave his word that he would not put Natalie or Matt on the block.

I would hope not, Lyn, especially since he was the one to point out that "your word is all you got."

Like James said......" all you have in this game is your word" he shouldn't be going around preaching this if he wasn't going to honor his own words....

Wasn't it James at the very first of the game that shook Matt's hand and said he wouldn't put him up? Matt looked at the camera and said "you got that". Then low and behold James nominated Matt and said "its Big Brother dude". James' word hasn't been worth squat since the beginning of the game. It drives me crazy to hear him acting holier than thou.

Chel and James have always talked like that to one another...I'm pretty sure he was teasing her. He told her several times this week he was putting her up...and she's threatened to put him on the block if she's ever HOH. I doubt he will blame Chelsia if she doesn't win HOH.

This may be why James is so desperate to win the money. STATE REVOKES RE LICENSES OF FRAUDULENT BROKER AND HIS BUSINESS He needs $52,000 pretty bad. What I can't tell is whether he has to pay that back by 2010 only if he wants his license back or he just has to pay it back or there are further consequences. There are a few articles like this and they are dated diff. dates, ie. 2001; 2007..diff. amounts. I'm surprised this isn't a crime and he didn't have to go to jail. Also, how could this to back to the 80's? Did he take over his father's name/job or something? How old is he, lol?

I realise you know that's a different James Zinkand, but you know how rumours spread, so it's probably worth pointing it out. This one's been in trouble since before BB's James was born.

I believe once you go on a reality show you choose to have your life disected ... that is what will always happen. They signed up for this. They know this is coming... Theyve seen the previous shows... they all know that they will have people who love them or hate them .... James and Chel have both comented on this very subject. James alone has spoken a lot of stuff about his personal life. you get what you put out there. I personally hope all his talk about ripping poeple out of money and scaming the gov etc....comes back to bite him in the A$$! I say if you don;t want private info about you out in the public... don't talk about it. jmo

What I don't understand is why BB doesn't do better background checks. Something comes out about the HG's every year that they should have found.

I apologize for the assumption...I don't read many other websites. But I still say that the hatespeak about any of the houseguests is out of control. The funny thing is that is one of the comments...about how much people hate to hear it on the show...and yet is it any better in some of the threads? Dissection of one's life is one thing...vivisection is another. And by the way, I still think the funniest thing about any of these castmates -- this current season and all others -- is how STUPID they are about what is shown on live feeds and BBAD.

Oak, Apparently you haven't seen his videos (lol). HE's been employed. James is playing a somewhat more psychological game at this point. When he told Matt his word was good, he specifically said, as good as everyones word in the house. I think he is saying, make me squirm, and I'll make you squirm. Mess with me, I will mess with you. Lie to me, I will lie to you. He wants people to fear retribution if they put him up again. He toke the lies about 'saving' him personally. SHeila realized it first and owned up to lying to his face during HOH competetion. LIke him or not, he is playing the game. Much more psychologically than the other Hgs imho.

Wasn't it Josh's idea last week to backdoor Matt? I know he was the one that presented it to Ryan and I thought he was the one that talked to "his" group about it. Yes it was Josh who started the backdoor Matt talk last week. In the beginning James didn't seem like he was convinced about the plan but he went along with it because Josh was in the driver's seat. Because of the side deal Josh and Ryan made James became the default person to backdoor since Sharon was already on the block and Chelsia won the veto. I’m glad James put up Matt as it’s a good strategic move. I agree with the person who said that James is the number one target in that house if anyone other than his alliance wins the next HoH. I think the one thing James should have done differently was to take Ryan of the nomination block instead of Sheila. That alone would have limited Sheila’s ability to stir up the house until Wednesday night. Josh is setting up himself in this game really well by establishing relationships with Ryan, Natalie, and Sheila. As a result he’s pretty made himself a less of a threat than James. I think the social part of the game is what James lacks severely and will be the reason for his second eviction. Unless J/C/J/S can pull off a 4-week HoH winning streak like the Sovs did in BBAS, I don’t see James lasting another 2 weeks in that house.

Chere, I agree with you on many of your points, particularly Josh's game play. I do think James is bent on psching people out. They are not reading him well and I think he wants the Hgs to fear him a bit. It may not be a good long term plan, his own group will turn on him first, but it May get him through the next few weeks if they can keep the numbers in their group constant.

In April 2005, when the licenses were revoked, BB James was 19 (or 21 if you believe his myspace). The James Zinkand in question had also had a "pattern of fraudulent conduct [which] extends back to the early 1980s." This isn't just a news report which might make mistakes, it's from the Pennsylvania State department that deals with these things - I just don't see how this can be the same James Zinkland as on BB, regardless of what he's talked about in the house. http://www.state.pa.us/papower/cwp/view.asp?A=11&Q=442284
