Room 101,

Who should win and why?

Curtis - He hope he wins but he thinks that it's up to the public & will be happy whoever wins.

Eddie - Josh, he feels he deserves it or something

Josh - Eddie, He thinks he needs it the most.

...with your help, of course, Prince. That was original.

Ocean: I've gotta respectfully agree, though I believe it's a judgment call. I think Eddie and Josh looked disingenuous (Eddie's keeping it real by saying he's there to win - right!) and Curtis balanced his response between believing he should win (why else play?) and being cool with the others winning too. If the public like honesty, Curtis did good. JMO

if these people are honest they're greedy, if they're polite they're liars. they just can't win with some viewers.

I am an Eddie lover, but you gotta let up on Curtis here. He spoke the truth and then said nice things about the other two. We all expected Eddie to say himself and he didn't, but if he did, this thread would not exist because it is what we expect from him and we wouldn't dog him for it so lets not do that to Curtis.

This is not new---he has said it before in the RR---and I wish more of them had been honest when asked a question by BB---they all have certainly said it one way or the other outside the RR.

Russ702 I know you're a troll, but I'll bite.

Now Eddie is 2 faced. First, it was the "1/2 million" Now, it's the for Josh to have the big money. Which side do we believe?

My feeling about Curtis is that he is the leader of the Big Brother House.

As that leader, he has failed in many ways. Most importantly, he failed to lead the houseguests to honesty and openness. Many times he resorted to subtle peer pressure to make the others agree with him. For instance, no discussing nominations. No taking $50,000. No allowing anybody but Cassandra back in. Go back and watch the tapes, you'll see it.

His fear of confrontation and emotions make him a weak leader. As the leader of the house, he has a greater burden to carry and more character to uphold.

He did not speak against any negative behavior from Eddie or any of the others.

For this reason, he does not deserve the grand prize.

He is a great person, but he has failed to meet the challenge.

If you will remember back to previous RR discussions, you will recognize that his answer was the standard answer he has given the other 48 times he has been asked the same question.

Please, Curtis shows a little competitiveness and he gets slammed? And what's with Honest Ed (who's been loudly declaring all along that he's only after the mullah) suddenly turning all goody-goody and saying Saint Josh deserves the money?

Curtis, GoodHeart, TrueHeart. And Thrifty too!

Untill now I planned to vote Curtis, I like all 3 men and would like to see any of them win and feel they all "deserve" it, but had to pick one so decided Curtis was the "nicest"..

I was very disapointed with his answer and I'd rather see one of the others win the grand prize now. :(

Ya'll need to get a life. Curtis is great. The only reason Eddie would win over Curtis is because everyone feels sorry for him. Poor baby has lots of bills so he deserves to win. You can bet if Eddie had 2 legs and acted the way he does he would already be gone.

I agree that this was a good strategic move on Eddie's part. He knew exactly what he was doing here IMHO. He knew Josh would say Eddie..he said so a few days ago. Eddie also knew it would go over very well if he said Josh.

On the other hand, I also believe that Josh really does want Eddie to win and that Curtis would like to win but would be just as glad for Josh or Eddie if they won, as he said. These two were answering truthfully IMHO and Eddie was answering strategically..as he said he was going to do all along. So they were all true to the people they have shown they are. No one was two faced here IMHO

It's really kind of interesting.. but remember.. even though Eddie has told the other HG all along that he is there to win... in the RR he has always said that someone else should get the money... While George was there..he always said George should get the money... because he was trying to take care of his family. I personally think that Eddie stayed "real" by saying Josh should get the money because he wants to take care of his niece. Nothing wrong with that.

I was actually surprised (not upset) about Curtis saying he should win.. I don't see anything wrong with it.. I was just surprised since all along he has said he was there for the experience. I still believe that they were all in the game to win.

Did anyone think that maybe Josh and Eddie thought it was against the rules to pick themselves?

Stop being so mean. I'm happy with any of them win the 500. The competition is over in my opinion.

Can't we just relax for the next 2 days?? This has been exhausting, with all the bickering. Just Let Go!!!!
PLEASE!!!!!

Curtis ALSO said he'd be happy if either Josh or Eddie won, but he'd like to win, that is what the game is about after all. I think they all should have said something for their case

I bet the Eddie fans won't vote Josh because Eddie tells them that is who he thinks should win, because they know it wasn't true.

Eddie has just been 2 faced not saying he wanted the money. The question wasn't if you can't have the bucks.... Eddie would have hardly eaten this week if it hadn't been for Jamie and Curtis... and he thinks Josh deserves it?
But this IS the Eddie show isn't it? LOUD and OBNOXIOUS takes it? I hope not.

It's time for the BEST man to win.

I was impressed with Eddie and Josh. I would have answered the way Curtis did. I had to laugh at the post that said even Eddie knew it was proper to pick someone else. I never doubted that Curtis was there for the money. He's very competitive. Nothing wrong with that but he bothers me with his wisecracks. Maybe George (who I wanted out) was right after all. He makes people feel small.

Eddie has done absolutely nothing to deserve to be ahead of Curtis in the end.

He has not changed his behavior once. He has been consistently obnoxious and offensive. We're all familiar with the negative stuff, no need to go over it again. But who has he helped? How did he make the house a better place?

For this reason, he does not deserve the grand prize.

I really , really enjoyed that challenge. Curtis is a very competitive person - and he does it in the right way , without stepping on anyone.

I can not believe how quickly Eddie said he wanted Josh to win - first time I have been surprised by him , I thought for sure he would say Me...DUH!

And Josh, I think he is really sincere in wanting Eddie to win.

Great show tonight...gotta go - HAVE to rewind to the wink by Eddie and then Josh calling Julie 'babe':)

Ocean Islands, I never thought Curtis was the 'leader' -didn't think the house had or needed one- so I guess I didn't hold him (or any of them) up to your high standards. As far as I'm concerned, they're adults and had no one to be responsible for except themselves.

Okay.....if Eddie and Josh are such great guys, and they have their hearts set on the other one winning......if either of them win the top prize....take it away and give it to the other....after all that's what they want isn't it????

Eddie is full of crap.....I thought he was the only one in there with a back bone. Not anymore. All along he has been saying that he is there for the money. He wants to play the game (it is a game people, many people seem to forget that). Now when the chips are done....he tries to be Mr. Diplomatic. Ya right!!!

Curtis never was my favourite, but I have more respect for him now, than any of the others. I'm sure they were all wanting to win, so why not say it!!!!!!Why have they spent 3 months there. To win the frigin top prize....not to make a case for somebody else to win.

Curtis for President!!! Honesty like that should be rewarded.

Give me a break you people!

Curtis is left in that house with two of the people he was the least close to. Why would anyone expect him to wish one of them wins the top prize over him?

That makes no sense to me.

I have to say, this thread has made me really mad. To criticize someone for being honest and not giving a fake "nice" answer is disgusting!

Does anyone really believe that Eddie is in their thinking "Gosh, I hope Josh wins, I hope Josh wins!"

You guys are pathetic!

"An Eddie fan looking to pick a fight with Curtis fans"

Enought said.

Curtis gave a honest answer. Josh and Eddie lied. Hook them up to a lie detector and only one of them would pass.

Ocean.......

FOr heaven sake he is going to be a Federal Prosecutor...do you have any idea what that takes?

As far as being a leader...I have seen enough qualities in him to trust him more than anyone else in that house.
