I just knew Phil was toast........wrong Mara ! It looks like Phil would be a good person to have sitting beside you at the end so that's my logic for him still being there. I so want Boston Rob gone he has played this game too many times for me.

LOL @ Karuuna. I thought they would vote off Ralph (because of his strength) or Steve (because apparently he is good at puzzles...who knew!). Julie was a surprise vote to me. I guess they threw Phillip a bone to keep him happy and make him feel like he has some power. I don't see her stealing Phillip's swim trunks like Russell's theft of people's socks at all...Russell sabotaged his OWN people, not the other tribe, and he did it before he formed any kind of relationship with them, for good or bad. Julie buried Phillip's shorts because he is an annoying, supercilious, irritating, race-baiting man who is on the team who is determined to wipe her tribe off the face of the game. If Phillip had approached them in any other kind of way there is a possibility that she might have returned them, but since he chose to act in the same manner as he usually does he didn't get his shorts back (maybe she would...maybe she wouldn't...but now Phillip will never know...nor will we).

Note to mods: as you're considering banning Juju from the Survivor thread, I would just like to remind you that she did *not* say "it's just God." Hope that helps. Thanks!

I'm with all of you in the confusion of the logic of voting off Julie. And please someone find Philip's trunks!!!

Matt's protrayal of his faith actually hasn't annoyed me. I think Matt's a very young Christian male and I like his prayers. Kid needs to pray for strength by now because he's had a rough ride of it. Always alone all the time I really admire him. I like that he's gunning for Rob. Rob's had it very easy with weirdo Phillip on his tribe and the girls who seem to worship him. Maybe Julie was voted off because of what she did to Philips trunks? Who knows about that one it seemed she'd be their last choice against Ralph and Steve. I hope Matt holds on. I'd love to see him win.

I figured they voted off Julie rather than Steve so it didn't appear they were taking Phil's side in the race-baiting argument. Just because Phil is willing to throw that kind of gas on the fire doesn't mean the rest of them want to be associated with it. I have no explanation for why they would have voted of Julie rather than Ralph, though.

I have to admit I was rolling when Phil rolled out his Wing Chun Kung Fu threat. I have the feeling Steve could drop Phil with one punch to the forehead.

Shenanagon they ALL voted for Julie...they didn't know she took the trunks until tribal council, so I don't think that was the logic. Also...she was the only one who knows where his trunks are, if they knew she hid them, my feeling is they'd keep her so they don't have to be subject to Phil in his tighty pinkies. GAL you have a good point/theory there, but yeah..why not Ralph then?

That extra clip of Rob posted at 1:51 am is hysterical. He knows what he's doing. Puppet-master indeed. I'm going to be so heartbroken if he doesn't make final 2.

"Personally, I think Matt is seriously getting off on being able to testify and preach his religion so much on national TV. I predict he will give up med school and become a televangelist as soon as this season is finished." ^ This.

Why didn't they just boil the rice with the maggots? It is a good protein source. That is how vegans in India get their B12.

Just watched the clip of Grant and am wondering why we are not seeing more of him if he's talking this much to the cameras and making that much sense. I'd like to hear more. And Matt? I think it's all been said. I will be very, very disappointed in this season if he wins.

Matt isn't preaching; he's living out his faith. He has no control over how much they show on tv. As a Christian myself, I have enjoyed his expression of faith.

I think most of the players this time have had a dis-service done in the amount of coverage they are receiving... maybe some don't interview well - but because of the Rob/Russell stories and the 2nd chance stuff - we don't get to know the players this time....

Agreed with Juju on the entire post. "...I would just like to remind you that she did *not* say "it's just God." " ????? not getting this ??? Sam, why would she be banned from the Survivor thread?

I thought maybe they voted out Julie because she is strong physically and could win challenges if she really tried. I get the feeling that up until last night she wasn't giving it 100% (keep the spotlight off of herself) and thought she was not in danger of being voted off right now. Also, maybe they want her on Redemption Island competing against Matt and winning and getting rid of Matt (Rob would hate for Matt to make it back into the game). Matt on a jury is definitely less of a threat than Matt coming back into the game to compete.

By the way, didn't Phillip steal some of the rice from the Zapateras last night? Was that part of the rice that spoiled? Kharma baby!

Yes! Wish that had been found out becuz it was a nasty bit of thievery from the spewing warrior of the universe himself! Goddess I hadn't thought of the others saving Steve so that Phillips racial accusations weren't supported. Good point. But ya then why not Ralph?

I liked Julie until last night, I thought it was mean spirited of her to steal someones clothing, no matter who it is or what that person has done. She lowered herself, in my opinion.

Phil did steal Zapateras rice, and I think they knew about it even though they didn't show anything of that nature. Why else would Julie all of a sudden hide his shorts? And the Omatepas will be subjected to Phil's junk hanging out for the rest of his stay on the island. That has to be one of the concentric circles of hell with their name stamped on it. Ordinarily I'm against the stealing thing, but under the circumstances good for Julie.

Brenda, I surmise Grant is the sleeper and may take this thing all the way home. The jury is going to have 5 Zaps on it (I think?) and I doubt any of them are going to vote for Rob. What little I've seen of Grant I like, regardless of the fact that his lips are attached to Rob's hiney. But I will reiterate my statement from earlier in the season - I hope Rob wins this once and for all so he can retire an equal with Amber and I don't have to watch him on many more Survivors. I don't have anything against him and he is in fact entertaining, and lord knows he's ruling the game right now. But I want some new characters.
