See, I don't see Shelia as being a "gamer." Shelia has in many ways simply been a floater w/ a bigger mouth. She has tried to play all sides and be the "nice person" but her attitude simply won't let her be the nice person. She is somehow thinking that her being older and a single mom gives her some leg up to the money, when in fact, these group of 20 somethings will hold that against her and fault her for it. The only person who may think, Shelia may need the money is Adam, because he buys into her sympathy story. The rest all think, you have a teenager, almost grown, and you were a Penthouse model... where is all your money?

James said during the first elimination, before he was brought back that it was Shelia to watch out for because she was a floater who would tell you all you wanted to hear. The thing is, I see Shelia and Sharon as very similar except Sharon knows when to keep her mouth shut, but neither have really done anything to stay or be in this game. Don't win comps, Shelia won this one because Nat dropped out after having others egg her on to give it to Shelia over and over. Shelia is always begging and dependent on others to "save her." She can't save herself most of the time.

2 people have gone to sheila with personal problems and she has kept their secret.

Sheila has a hand in every decision. I call that game.

Did James say she was a floater??? I thought when asked who the strongest player was he said "Sheila".

Her son is 16 and knows this is a game. He should be proud of his mom for leaving her clothes on and not bedding down with a hg. She has played her game with very little name calling and says she is winning this for her son.."you go Sheila" you don't owe anyone the win of this game except your son and he should be proud.

She has used the "Single Mom" card to stay in that game and has backstabbed and lied just as much as anyone else in that house. I am a single mom, so do I get to have special consideration too? It makes me sick that she felt that she deserved certain treatment or respect from the others because of that. Take Nat out, she would crush Shelia in the final HOH, but does she have to be so hateful and mean about the person who kept her in the game (well besides Adam)?

Oh and if she does make it to F2 (God forbid) she'll surely win because she is a single mom after all.

She may have kept her clothes on, but not keeping her alliance intact may cost her the game. She should be trying to stress the point of keeping Natalie not evicting her. If they evict Nat, Sharon may slide all the way to the win...

Keeping that alliance in tact made her final 4, but not final 3. She was smart to build a side alliance. She has played the "single mom card" Nat has played the "religion card", they all play the card they are dealt and hope it pays off. If she wins this game it is not because she is a single mom, it's because she worked it and played for it.

How does keeping your clothes on and not hooking up give you the title of gamer? Most contestants have done that in past years. Even this season, the only "hook ups" were Matt and Nat and James and Chelsea. I just don't see Shelia has having "worked" for a win. I see her as having depended on one, the goodwill of others to propel her ahead and two others being more "evil" or a target than her. She has been kept around for a vote and for numbers. But, I see her as a very dispensible person in the whole game. Sure, Nat has played her religion "card." But, I also think that will cost her the game too; just as Shelia's mom card will be a flaw found in her by others and also a source of resentment among the others as she has thrown it up so many times. Yes, Shelia has "played" harder than Sharon in running her mouth and staying out of bed.. that's about it. As for keeping people's "personal" problems a secret... not sure how that even qualifies you as being a gamer to be honest. It sure would not win a vote from me on the jury. Still says nothing really about her "gameplay."

Okay, I'm willing to change my mind about Sheila and Sharon if someone can give me the criteria for being a gamer. Obviously it's not winning comps or James would have been the ultimate gamer and he was evicted. If you are evicted then apparently your game wasn't that good.

I did not say keeping your clothes on made you a gamer. I said her son should be proud of her for not lettin it all hang out.

How do we know that Sheila is any safer with this move. She may still only be F4.

Sheila played a "type" of game, just like everyone has in the house. I believe that she has rode a lot of coattails to get where she is, and now that she has power, she's going to make the "big move" that she will then use as her "winning point" if she makes it to F2. It's not a type of game that I admire, but it is a type of game.

However, the one part of her game that I think is going to cause her problems is she's not seeing the whole picture. If she takes Sharon to the end, she will lose. If she takes Adam to the end, she will lose. If she takes Ryan to the end, she might have a chance. If she takes Natalie to the end, she probably would win.

This is where her flaw is, I think.

I am wishing "3rd" place on Sheila. No prize money, and no vacation in sequester. The 4th place person at least gets a week's vacation in sequester.

Keldogg, I suspect Sheila wont be having a say in who she takes to the end. With Nat out of the way at least the chances of Adam taking her are higher.

And I dont think Nat would take Sheila if it was Nats choice either.

Keldogg, exactly. I really don't understand Sheila flipping to Sharon instead of Natalie. She says she doesn't care about Nat's vote, but if she's up against Sharon in the final 2, it will be Natalie who hands the win over to Sharon because of Sheila's actions this week.

You are right Kel. The thing that I just have a hard time w/ in some aspects is the word "gamer." I guess I just attribute that to a "b*lls to the wall" hard core person w/ not only the strategic smarts but the comp wins behind it. Yes, the person often gets eliminated for being exactly that, ex... the Nerd Herd and their end in the season were not that big of gamers, but ended up w/ the majority taking out the gamers.

I have not understood Shelia's turning on Nat either. The only thing I can pinpoint it to is fear of Nat winning the endurance comp at the end. I just have not found a way yet that Shelia can win this game with any of the ppl that are left.

They're stressing the endurance comp too much. Zach won it last year, and it didn't get him to the final two.

Sheila claims she doesn't care about Nat's vote if she goes to sequester, but she made it very clear that the votes have to go 2-0 so she doesn't have to break the tie! She can't have it both ways..I really don't see Nat voting for Shelia in the end if she goes out this week. JMO

The ONLY thing I can see saving Shelia and giving her ANY shot at the money is actually her being the one to have eliminated Nat. This may gain her some "respect" or fans in the jury house among Chelsea, Josh, and James. I think IF somehow she did end up in final 2, in addition to getting Nat out, a lot would hinge on her speech to the jury. She could EASILY lose them if she pulls out the "I am a single mother and need the money." thing. I think right then, she could lose any momentum she may have going.

Shelia~WAKE UP. You are making a mistake by turning on Natalie.
Going against your alliance and loosing jury votes at the same time.

If Natalie gets evicted this week and Sharon follows next week by the hand of Adam or Ryan, Sheila could possibly pick up all of team pinks votes.
