ITA with you all. DH and I would have just LOVED seeing Rocky's face had he been the one to go tonite. I so wished he had! They way he talks about people and worse yet, to them, is disgusting. I'm also glad Lissi got sent to EI and will have to go back to the camp w/o anything and be the only girl there. I'm not liking this season much either. At least some of the "have nots" got to go to the good camp.

I wanted Rocky gone ... can you imagine not just his face but also Jeff's face? He was sure edited to look like he was stirring that pot.

Man, Lisi and Rocky were both so unpleasant and strident! Sheesh. I agree, Jeff seemed to really have it in for Anthony and I found it REALLY irritating. Rocky is reminding me of one of the guys from last season who was just a real irritant!

What I don't understand is why they had to show that whole Rocky rant, when Anthony left. Why put that on national tv, the degrading of another human being? Blech. I was glad to see the all guy team lose, since they seemed so full of themselves. Also glad to see a few of the former Ravus get to go to the 'luxury' campsite. Really sad to see Anthony go, he was funny, clever and one of the most interesting to watch. I'll be really glad when Rocky gets his comeuppance, he so has earned it.

They shouldn't have gotten fishing gear.. the previously "haves" won't ever know what it was like on the "Have nots" with only a machetti (sp) and a pot...

I agree that the whole show has been painfully unfair. I know that life is often unfair but that doesn't mean that I enjoy watching it happen on a TV show.

Actually, I'm glad they got some fishing gear. The starvation makes the show very one-sided and difficult to watch.

No, I think Lisi just thought she was going home and wanted to go...she pretty much said that when they showed her on EI.

Just for clarification -- aren't Rocky and James the same person? Edguardo was the person missing on the Boy's Club roster in an earlier post. Too bad he got stuck with them. He seems like a fairly decent guy.

I wanted Rocky to go home too - but won't it be fun to see Rocky and Lissa at the same camp together?? They deserve each other

That's right Roxip, James=Rocky. Speaking of, I cannot stand him and wanted to reach through the t.v. and slap the you know what out of him. Argh! I was glad to see Anthony finally defend himself but it seemed like he was directing it toward the others instead of who it belonged to-Rocky. Rocky is the one with poor social skills!! I remember in junior high and highschool when the bullies would pick on any of my friends, I made sure the bully knew that wasn't ok. No violence, just telling the bully about themselves usually worked but I did actually have to go to blows once(she threw the first hit.) That said, I do have to say that Anthony did poorly on most of the challenges but that could have been because loud mouth Rocky was barking the whole time. I can't wait till next week to see how Rocky & lissi don't get along.

I actually didn't find Rocky's rant to be degrading to Anthony...I found it to make Rocky look terrible. He should be ashamed of himself. And I think that Jeff was wrong for letting Rocky speak like that and then suggest "Yah Anthony, why don't you speak up?" I think a much better response from Jeff should have been, "OKay Anthony, I understand why you don't speak up, there is no reasoning with an unreasonable person!"

Well, I thought so too. And even thought with all the other fellas nodding, or making faces, that they thought Rocky was way out of line. Can't remember what Jeff's final comment was, kind of like he was egging Anthony on, almost as if he agreed with Rocky that Anthony was a wimp. And then, they all voted Anthony off. So it seemed as if everyone agreed with Rocky. That's just my impression.

I don't think they agreed with him, but I think that everyone has their discussions and votes made up before getting to tribal council...and without being able to huddle and talk with the other members of the tribe no one is going to change their vote for feer of being the one going against the alliance...I think had they been able to talk, everyone may have changed and voted off Rocky...Perhaps we will hear more next week

As bad as I think Rocky is, I think the others are worse. (At least the ones who do disagree with Rocky.) At least one of them said how bad they felt that Rocky was saying that stuff and yet he did not try to do anything about it... Just sitting there letting someone say something that you really feel is wrong is as bad or worse than the person who is doing it...

That was painful to watch. Rocky was like a school yard bully beating up the shy kid while the other jocks looked on and said/did nothing...very sad...and pffft to Jeff for letting it go on and on. JP seems totally bored and uninterested in this whole season, much like some of us. I wish Anthony all the best, he deserves better than he got. Dear Rocky, I had started to like ya last week, this week I realized I made a mistake, hope ya go next, brah.

Was Anthony on the Early Show this morning? I watched the last hour, but didn't see him. Was he on earlier?

I think the others are still swayed by the illusion that Rocky (because he's bragged so much about his manliness) would be better in the challenges. I haven't seen that to be a fact as yet but sometimes people can maintain an illusion of success even when it is just an illusion.

I like how wee, little Michelle and her team beat big bad Rocky and his team. Bet he's not too pleased that Michelle, Yao Man and the other "inferior" team members sent HIM and his tribe to tribal council. I was very glad to hear Anthony say in his parting words that HE wasn't the one who needed to learn social skills -- ROCKY WAS! Did Rocky NOT watch when Yule won? Neither Yule nor Ozzy (the F2) were that openly obnoxious or rude -- and they made it to the LAST tribal council. Take the hint, Rocky!

I just have to say... I'm so effing pissed at myself that I didn't realize the show was airing on Wednesday this week!!! The previews looked like this was a pretty pivitol episode, and I missed it all together. ))-:

If you have comcast cable with on demand, you can probably see the episode there.

I don't really know who irked me more during the TC...Rocky because he can act like such a jerk, or Jeff...whom I thought was better than that kind of bullying.... Rocky can't help acting like a jerk, because from his actions through out the entire season its apparently something he does often... but Jeff? I'm so disappointed in him...

I know what you mean Kep, Hey Jeff if you want to play the game then play the game! It's like he has to get all up in the business or does he think the viewers want to see that?

If you have comcast cable with on demand, you can probably see the episode there. Unfortunately, I have Time Warner. They keep showing previews for Survivor xtras airing on "TV Guide Spot On Demand", but there is no such thing. Par for the course with them though. On Demand options change by the hour some days. "you can probably watch it at the cbs.com website, on innertube, Jezzedout" Still being in the stone age with a dial-up connection, I've never done that before because I know the quality will be low and time involved will be long. That said, I read the episode recap on Reality News Online, and am playing the Innertube episode right now. Not ideal, but at least I get tone of voice to go with the descriptions I had from the RNO recap. Thanks for thinking of me just the same guys!! Now that I've adequately complained... I do have to say about Rocky... there was something about him that seemed a bit negative from the very beginning. He seemed to act like he was the only one on his tribe who was suffering, or who was pained by the repeated losses. I don't think I've seen the guy smile or laugh one time since hitting the island. I don't think that attitude has anything to do with Survivor, he's probably much like that in life outside the game, however, that's just supposition on my part. That said, he really did sink to new lows this episode. I don't like bullies or people who go around trying to intimidate other people, thinking their view of how to live life is somehow more valid than the other person's. His treatment of Anthony was just totally uncalled for, wrong on so many levels. Rocky is an *ss, IMHO.
