I think the games are getting a little too violent. Russell threw Jeri down and hurt her. There is too much chance for injury. Doing the puzzle piece retrieval blindfolded was dangerous. I am not enjoying the Heroes at all. Right now I like Rob and (I never thought I would ever say this) Coach.

Dogdoc, I totally agree w/ you about the games being to dangerous. I am not enjoying them at all. When I saw what Rupert did to Jerri, I was thinking he just lost a vote if she's on the jury and he is in the finals. He didn't even look sorry when he did that.

I was too Grooch. I could not believe he threw her with such force. It looked like Rob ran over and pushed Rupert after it happened. I think at first Rupert was shocked he may have hurt her. Then after Rob pushed him and Jerri gave him a whatever, he went right back into "warrior" mode. Speaking of Warrior Mode I found that truly comical. The looks on Colby, Rupert and James faces. I was yelling at my TV "eat the damn chocolate". I was rofl when Jeff told Colby he would start the challenge when he is good and ready to start it.

Biloxi, I don't mean to be indelicate, but I don't know another way to say it. Thankfully, I don't crave chocalate at all. All I kept thinking when the women were downing the chocalate was they would be running to the woods soon after to do their "business". I was thinking the producers did it on purpose to affect the next game. I was trying to see if they had anything like oatmeal/chocalate cookies or something w/ peanut butter to get some nutritional value. Either way, I guess the break away from camp was a nice reward. Bad move on Russell's part to hang away from the others to stay with Pavaritti (sp) Can't wait for next week!

Except for Colby, I am now rooting for the Villains.

Good point Grooch, lol. Sadly I don't have the good sense to think that far ahead when someone is waving chocolate in front of me. I would either need your good sense on my team or I would be dashing for the woods. Yes, it was a bad move on Russell's part. However bad moves seem to benefit Russell somehow. This is going to be interesting. Coach, I have been a fan of the Villains all along. I have been a forever Boston Rob fan. I just haven't seen much spark in Colby as of yet.

I'm rooting for a few of the Villains too- Sandra, Boston Rob, Jerri. I'm glad Tom is gone I always got the feeling he felt entitled to be kept around because he thought he was a much better person than most-adios and don't come back on my TV. I miss Cerie. OH, and I think Russell is making the same mistake he did last time. He'll probably go far but I doubt anyone on the coming jury will vote for him to win. 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. No one seems to like him...well maybe Coach but he appears a bit of a odd duck and his reasoning skills seem impaired and...he's like the unpopular girl who clings to anyone that shows any interest in him without seeing he's being used.

I also found the "warrior" mode very comical!! I said out loud "eat the damn chocolate already"...I wonder how many people spoke the same thing to their TV's!!!

I agree 100% about the challenges getting too violent. Jerri getting thrown, plus some of the challenges from past weeks. And did you notice Rob in the IC? He was holding his hand in front of his crotch, probably to protect himself from getting really hurt!!

I saw the Lorie! LOL! Yeah, it's not fun to walk into things blindfolded. I imagine a lot of them came out of that challenge with bumps and bruises. And I'm not a big fan of the challenges where they have to fight each other for something. I like the obstacle course type much better.

I think Rob and Sandra have been very sanctimonious in this last show. Where do they get off telling Russell and the others how they have to play the game? That crap about "We decided..."...mel-larky!! If Rob doesn't understand the power of II, that's on him... I've never been a fan of Russell...but I hope Russell uses the idol to oust Rob...it would serve Rob right...

Okay, I"m officially off the hero team. How in the heck did they get a bunch of "heroes" who are too brain deficient to solve a single puzzle? Sheesh. Colby was just goofy, and Tom was behaving like an ass, James is too full of himself (the only bright moment he had was when he said he'd have no hard feelings if they voted him off because they thought someone else would be stronger - but then he clearly acted like he didn't mean it). JT can't make a decision to save his life, Amanda's whiney, well, heck there's just no one there to admire at all....

I think the heroes bought into their own hype...I'm highly disappointed in them...some of my favorite players...acting like idiots. When Colby and Rupert refused the chocolate... I was like 'WHAT THE HECK?" Its freaking energy!!! something that could be used to your advantage in the challenge... They are acting like they have to make some kind of moral stand or sumptin equally idiotic...

I too thought the chocolate everything reward was a strange one--we all know how chcolate could affect your system if you havent been eating much lately! When Jerri said she was feeling sick afterwards, I expected the next shot would be her barfing or running for a toilet! Also agree that these challenges are too violent. What else can they expect when they throw desparate people in a "pit" to go after some balls? Somebody is going to get hurt, expecially when you mix in the weaker with the strongest! Next episode (which I think I heard was going to be in 2 weeks?) looks good with Rob and Russlel squaring off.

Always rooting for the villians! I said a little "yeah!" when Jerri made the winning basket. Tom doesn't bother me, never was on the Rupert love train and James is a sore loser! Most of all I cannot stand Amanda-I know I say it every week but she just irritates me to no end! UGH! That whole scene running to James and saying what would she do if he's gone? Enjoyed the Russel, Parv and Coach scenes! (hahah not something you read often)

I wonder why they couldn't let Colby sub in for James when he got hurt...it didn't seem fair that they were down a person during the challenge.

I wonder if they poll these folks befor the game starts to ask them if they can eat certain foods... I hate choclate,the smell alone sends me reeling...and some folks get terrible migrains from it as well as being allergic... The choclate thing was just a terrible reward... I agree the games are to vilent... I have always loved Rob and SO badly want him to win this thing... Russel just gives me the creeps in a huge way.... I dont know what I think of Coach...he just seems to go to who ever gives him the strokes that he so seems to need... Seeing Rupert act so mean,...I just wasnt expecting that... I have always had this image of him as being a gentle guy, but Ive not really watched all the seasons as much as I did in the beginning so I could have missed his true personality.....

I had a little trouble understanding what Tom turned around and said before his torch was snuffed. Anybody remember? In talking about James I thought he said "All mass and no class" referring to his muscles. Never heard that before.

See, I never had the image of Rupert as the big gentle guy. As I sat alone on my island during his season, he was a bully. The first time his name was written down in tribal he came back with a roar and threatened his entire tribe! Then he tried to bully Fairplay and Sandra (which you know she wasn't havin'). Really enjoying the Villain's tribe and the fact that there are so many personalities (and we already know that) that the producers can't lie and say there aren't any and turn this into The Russell Show again.

For what it's worth, Probst says in his blog (link in other thread) that they'll never play that Reward Challenge again -- too violent.

I thought that Tom's remark about James was inappropriate for somebody who tells everyone that he generally takes the high ground.

Yeah Roxip, he takes the high ground as he's looking down on everyone else. Colby -- you're next! I thought the refusal of chocolate was so dumb. Wanna bet if Cerie was still there the girls would have eaten theirs? Colby makes the big grandstand to start the game and then he's one that sits out. That seemed kind of odd. If Parvati can arrange Russels ouster, I might start to like her. I'm actually starting to like Jeri. Go villains!
