Sally wrote "Coach could look good if he would cool it. I'd like to know his true life story. (Not his version) I am betting there is some sad story there. His fantasy world is not an accident."

I agree. I wonder if something happened to him in his childhood. I would love to hear fromt he parents of the kids he coached and see how they feel about him.

I like him, he cracks me up.

Okay...it's a slow day here....I read it. Now I am thinking the Wade Brothers on the Amazing Race...then we could see what they are made of.

Grooch, I fought the good fight.

I thought that if Goddess read the whole thing I could too.

I failed.

Winston Churchill does not even have that much stuff written about him.

In fairness I skimmed the Wade Brothers article...my eyes just took over the situation lolol. I really only have 2 comments;

1--HOLY CRAP THERE ARE 2 OF THEM??? ~~THUNK~~

2--I'm now dying of curiosity to know what their parents are/were like and how they raised such bizarre sons with egos the size of Wyoming (or larger). Bet the Mom was one of those who told her kids how they were perfection personified and to never believe anyone who said any differently.

As for them on TAR, while part of me could see the amusement potential, I find I'm ODing on Coach's "Coachness" as this season goes on, so not sure I'll be able to take much more of him after this. Then again, to be fair, I'm getting my fill of a LOT of these Survivors. I'm SOOOO over Rupert I just can't tell you. I simply can't stand him this season, (I originally liked him but he's turned into a nasty characature of himself IMHO). Parvity I was over since her 1st appearance and I'd love her gone from my life forever. And Russell no longer amuses me at all! I could go on sadly, but I'll stop for now lol

NOOOOOOOO! Don't give CBS any ideas!!!
No Coach and brother on TAR!!!! Don't ruin the race!

Couldn't you just picture a challenge in England? Coach & his brudda would be taking a side trip, kneeling down at the Buckingham Palace door & asking if Queen Elizabeth was planning to knight them, too.

Okay...I take it back....how about their own reality show where we follow them around and see some of these world records beat? No, I take that back too.

Best way to tell if some one is tell a lie is all the unnecessary details they throw in trying to make it more believable.
I think Coach Ben really believes himself.

Can't wait for Wednesday the 24th.

Kappy, that's when we'll see the next episode of Survivor. It's not on next week, and then we have one Wednesday episode.

From upthread:
" As a matter of fact I think a lot of Villain jury members would vote for a Hero over Russ if it came to that scenario. So he could work very hard finding HII and hiding tools but he has zero social skills and that will kill his chances again. Silly silly- I hate when people don't learn lessons from previous experience."

I agree about the voting. I also agree that Russell does not have the social skills. He does not understand that part of the game.

He can't learn from it though because he doesn't know it yet. When they were filming Hero v Vill, the finale for Samoa hadn't happened yet. Russ is probably out there in HvV playing thinking he won Samoa. When he was crying at the Samoa finale, I think part of it is probably because he doesn't go too far in HvV. I have no idea, this is just my speculation.

I too am quite disappointed in the Heroes tribe. I find Colby annoying. I miss Cirie. I still really like JT, I don't think it's that he can't make a decision, I think he is just trying to play however it is best for him. I kind of miss Steph too. It really annoyed me that they didn't eat that little bit of choc. Any extra calories are good for them. James is really annoying me. Keeping him with a bad leg is such a terrible idea.

I don't think Russ has necessarily swayed Coach. Maybe for now, but Coach is easily swayed. I think he'd do whatever Rob tells him. I think he listens to whoever gets to him last.

Happymom.....I never once considered that Russell doesn't know he didn't win. The sequence of all this confusing.

Happymom, I wrote about Russell not learning his lesson....I didn't realize he went to HvV before he found out. I wonder how much he'll cry this time around (given he doesn't win) and I wonder if he'll call the winner names and unworthy and I wonder if he'll ask the winner if they will just admit that he was the winner? Hmmmm. Now I'm even more interested in this season. I'm very curious about Russell's reaction, if he loses. And I hope he goes real far even to the final 2 only to lose again because he can't get people to appreciate him as much as he appreciates himself. Social skills, dude, it gets people far in life and in Survivor and I hope hope hope it's a girl that beats him.

I am beginning to worry about myself because I just love the little devil. Maybe that will change before this is over....because I am also fickle.

They might have been "brilliant" as children, told they were special and would always be better than anyone else. Coach's stories show that he is disappointed in himself. A person who is happy with who he is doesn't need to brag about things even if they did experience them. To make things up is just plain pathetic and shows that his real life just doesn't add up to what he was told to expect.

I agree that something happened to Coach that makes him so needy and has the need to exaggerate and brag.

He really does magnify beyond the limits of truth and overstates everything he ever did.
