His overall character? He was sneaky and dishonest. He told outright lies to the other HGs. He shamelessly mocked people in his pleas to stay in the house. He lived by the rule that the end justifies the means... any means. I think you're the one who's a poor judge of character. It doesn't much matter anymore 'cause George is gone. Yipee!

George didn't play the game? IMHO George is the ONLY one who played the game! Did any of the others do anything spectacular, albeit idiotic, to call attention to himself? No. Have any of the others "acted" like a moron or have they just been their usual selves?

Homer: exactly.

Tukuul: you don't know any more about George's overall character than we do, unless you haven't been telling the truth about knowing George personally. All any of us can do is judge him by his actions in the house since even our knowledge of his actions outside the house is second hand.

I don't know about everyone else, but the HGs seem to be perfectly happy that George left. They have certainly recovered their spirits faster than any other banishement night in recent memory.

It does make a striking contrast to some of the other nights, doesn't it? I still remember Eddie yelling Brittany's name out in the yard.

As an RN, I probably would have referred George for mental health evaluation a long time ago. I don't feel like an ass...in fact his leaving is the BEST news I've had in a while. Never really liked him, I just can't stand fools. I'm glad his daughter gets an education, I only hope that he will be offered one also so he will learn how to speak somewhat intelligantly. I hope Eddie gets the big bucks, followed by Josh and then Curtis. That's how I would like the GAME to end.

I agree Rufus, I think they will be able to relax and enjoy themselves a lot more. I can only imagine how uncomfortable they have been these past few weeks around George. I personally hate that feeling of seeing someone make a fool out of themselves and not having the heart to tell them so.
I am looking forward to seeing the new dynamics of the house.

Nagster - yes someone else did some idiotic (whatever) to call attention to themselves... does the name Brittany ring a bell?

But only a crazy ol' man could get away with what George got away with... he sure did add something to BB , but it was his time to go and so on and so forth. I am glad we don't have to deal with the way Teresa plays :( anymore.

I, also believe he will do just fine, and get some offers that may surprise many here. Julie hinted at that... and there are some pretty outrageous programs (non-network) that may check him out.. who knows. Either way I wish him well, but sure am glad he's gone - I am looking forward to seeing what BB drums up for the remaining 4 - Adults!

Tukuul, my feelings about George getting the boot are probably a lot like yours were when Brittany got the boot. Not sure why you think those of us who voted George off would feel like an ass. Do you also question if the HGs feel like asses for nominating him, thus giving us the chance to get him out the house?

If it's any consolation to you though, I'll vote Jamie for final banishment if she's nominated. Also, now that George is out of the house and out of the game, like him or not, I wish him nothing but peace and success.

Want a tissue Tukull?

STOP WHINING - YOU SOUND AS RIDICULOUS AS GEORGE!

No thanks. Just take your tissue and stuff it in every oriface on your body. Maybe you'll lose consciousness...moreso than you already have.

As for bitterness, I know George is going to get offers and probably make more than $500,000. He and Brit were the 2 top personalities. You think they are going to let Eddie "f*#king" act and do commercials with that mouth?

Take your best shot but I'm not leaving this area. I eat it up!

I can't tell you how much it's meant to me having the chance to get to know George on Big Brother over the last few months. It was sad seeing him leave the house and it will definitely not be the same. He added a sense of humor, a good work ethic, creativity and kindness to the household and it's something many people, including myself, will treasure forever. CBS did a wonderful job selecting him for the show and I hope a lot of opportunities open up for him and his family.

Tukuul: It's clear you were hatched out of the same (rotten) egg that gave the world Survivor's Susan Hawk. Absolutely NO ONE likes (or respects) a sore loser. I don't have to ask what you would do if you came across an anti-Boswellian dying of thirst by the side of the road. Your lethal posts provide the answer to hypothetical questions like that one.

Tukuul does your mommy know you are on her computer this late?

Maybe you should re-read your posts. Do you really think you are in any postition to judge Eddie's mouth? I hope your mommy doesn't catch you on her computer writing like that. She might make you go into the corner for time out.

Now run along like a good little boy and go to bed. We wouldn't want you to sleep in and be late for school tomorrow.

"You think they are going to let
Eddie "f*#king" act and do commercials with that mouth?"

I take it you are not fond of Eddie Tukuul.
George wants Eddie to win it all. So I hope we see you cheering for Eddie in the future. That's what George would want you to do :)

Ricmunoz: Tip - Carry lots of water.

Nadi: Tip - Here's a quarter. Now go back to your housework.

All I'm going to say is the man I saw sitting in front of Juile Chen tonight was the George that I loved in the beginning of the show, not the madman we've seen the last few weeks and I hope that once he gets home and readjusted he and his family have wonderful lives.

I didn't say anything about Eddie not winning, but I don't think the range of offers he will get afterwards will be as vast as what George will get. Eddie's personality is a bit abrasive.

Tukull,

Good comeback, I must say! Cleverness at it's finest. Must have taken a long time to think of that one, huh?

As usual, your responses are very weak and tiresome. Same old, same old!

Still sure you don't need that tissue?

Thank you for your quarter offer but I would really hate to take all your allowance like that.

By the end of this week, I think George will have won the most of anyone. That is, if he becomes aware of how the public reacted to his foolishness. George needs to clean up his act and perhaps this game was just the method to teach him what a fool he is. I advise him to watch the BB tapes and to visit banishgeorge.com and other sites like that. Then he should THINK REALLY HARD about how to improve himself.

(I actually liked George up until Brit was banished. George reminded me of a father figure and when he spoke to the others in the house I often had tears in my eyes. So yes, I am bitter because of the "betrayal" I felt when I found out about his "plan" and his wife's scheming. I sincerely thought George was better than that.)

Personalities have nothing to do with abilty to pitch a product or emote a line.

You want abrasive try Buddy Hackett,Jerry Lewis-and think of the "image"they project.(if any of them get work except Lewis"telethon)

You want quiet retiring non-bombastic-try Dangerfield,Jackie Mason.

Those have been my experiences with those performers-but they all have the abilty to deliver lines (Well maybe not Lewis but the french like him.)

The exposure from BB is minimal to a national company that spends big bucks for their ad campaigns-they want ACTORS-or RECOGNIZABLE faces.

Eddie's automatic for some sports/handicapped organization regardless of bb (that world's only been turned on cuz Eddie's already been exposed to it from his athletic career)

George OTOH has demonstrated no discernable trait to even remember a line much less emote (those ok you guys won't make it in the biz).Creative in costumes?That's why they hire set and clothing designers-something George is way out of his league in.

He'll probably get some rockford callin radio guest shots for the next couple weeks but that's about it.His town wasn't even in back of him according to the local poll.

In 6 mos.(or less)he'll be back in obscurity like the rest of these hg's-tho Ed and possibly Brit could still get something in their niches-but nothing close to that 500k that the winner gets.

The survivor crew,too will be packing it in as as soon as the strike's over.Everything I've seen them on they come across amateurish-with a possible exception of Sean (haven't seen him)or Richard-whose got the speaking experience.And they had audience exposure.

Like jamie willfind out,anyone wants the bucks in that biz you better have something different-or a good dose of acting experience

Tukuul: Sure we banished a good, family man. But at this point I think all the HG's are "good." Would you label any of them evil? If so, who and why?

So someone good HAD to be banished last night. So why should be feel crappy about it?

As for George being financially needy, I've seen a lot of info. on here casting doubt on that. His overplaying of his poverty is actually one of the reasons I wanted him banished.
