I can't stand hearing Josh talk about how Roddy has changed everything for him. That he really looks up to him. Then Eric talks about how Jason really looks up to Roddy and he just wants to be a part of the group. PLEASE. I'm thinking Jason can see right thru this crap. Eric and Josh sound brainwashed.

oh well.

I think this is going to be good that Roddy got HOH. He thinks he is being so smooth. This should be a great eye opener for the others. Plus, I thought he would be smart enough to see that the person you want gone seems to be the one that stays, it don't sound like he is savy to that, so I hope it backfires on him too.

Let's hope you're right Doc. But since the HGs don't have most of the info we have here, Rod just might pull the wool over them.

The interview JC had w/ Ton, kind of make the mysterious situation of the evicted guests even more vague. I'm begining to think it could be true that one of AS's little twists this year may just be the seclusion(sp). If it's a solid one, they won't even let the booted HGs see each other or watch the tv shows! I can't see any beniffit for the show to do this practice, but if that's the case, by the time all the evictees come back in Sept., some of them might still have romantic thoughts about how Rod treated them with kind & honesty!!
In my observation, last night Tonya din't even started to cry untill she heard Rod's bs, could be a situation as "building-up-to-it", but I think she's still fooled by him. If she is not going to have the help of internet, old LFR or friendly help from outside friends, Ton just may end up voting for Rod to win at the end!

PS: Hopefully, Jason will wake up and see through Rod before too late. From his brother's interview, it sounds like they had discussed about id-ing the person best to be in the last two with, he said he already know about Josh, that could be one of the reasons he's keeping Josh in, other than showing loyalty to Danie. Oh, that's another one he needs to watch out about. Wonder if he has enough street smart to wade through all these...

Okay - I have to share my thoughts... Being a girl who is totally in love with a wonderful man, I have to say that Rod encompasses NOTHING that I find attractive in a man... He is arrogant, self serving, controlling, I could go on, and on... I agree wholeheartedly with WCV & poohbear... put me on that bandwagon!!! In my opinion, the two most beautiful men in the house are.... Jason & Marcellus!!!

IJason and Marc too. I would LOVE it if they were in the top 3. I also agree that Roddy is a know-it-all windbag. However, I blame Josh for going full throttle, playing the game from the second he popped into the house, setting the demeanor for how everyone's playing.

it's the sleeping roddy and eric sleeping with the girls and then screwing them over (that doesn't sound nice!) that i don't like. playing hard is fine with me--even if i don't like the player--but i don't like people playing with others' affections. could be the other way as well though, i guess. the girls just aren't seeming as cutthroat though...

I dont think Eric and Roddy are gonna screw their girls..didn't you hear Eric,Rod,Chi,and Lisa talking this morning about being the final four..and gettin rid of Josh in 2 weeks they said their order is amy,gerry,josh,marc,then jason/dani...and I doubt they are lying because when Josh proposed his idea to Roddy..roddy didn't even seem like he was listenin and wasn't really interested in what Josh had to say about gettin Lisa out..and Roddy didn't tell Chiara what Josh said because then she would have gotten all emotional and would try and convince him to make Josh go this week..but I believe his plan is still for him,eric,lisa,and chi as final four.

Bmh - having an opinion like that, which is the same one that I share, is dangerous on this board!

Bmh & Minny, what do you think Roddy is going to do about the girls when ther're only four left?

wcv63,lance,c1mag & snee:
thanks for addressing the "bully" question...i tried to answer last night right after jhezzie posted but either the boards or my puter went crazy and froze up on me. Looks like I don't have to answer now as all of you already did a great job of that and basically took the words out of my mouth.
wcv63: yes, I agree with you that there are lots of others that don't care for the rod-man but haven't surfaced yet. And, as the game goes on...there will be more and more and more, etc!
squidward: I'm with you on the more trivial aspect of Rod-man's looks......I am and always have been one of those girls who can't help but notice an attractive guy.....Rod-man just never did anything for me at all!!! And, as to your question about what in the world does Marcellas see in Roddy? Whew! That's a stumper! The only thing I can think of is: "A big a-hole"! ;) (oh , please forgive...that was baddddddddd!)

Welcome aboard the bandwagon Djgirl!

C1mag is probably one of the first to point out Roddy's mirroring techniques here on the board. He's a sly one, is our Rod. Smash and bash your way to the finals when charm and smarm fail!

Chyang if they are going to fully sequester the evictees they should have "tribal council" type get togethers so they can keep up with some of the machinisations going on in the game. Having them vote based strictly on in-house experiences seems like a dull and boring twist. Not a shake-em-up twist as promised.

Welcome to the bandwagon! I'll move over alittle so you can have a seat! Yipee ka yi ya! :)

Squidward is here too......but glad to have you along for the ride. ( I was worried that no one would take seriously any opinions on physical traits made by a squid and a poohbear!) LOL :)

Wcv, it won't be my idea of fun either, but those production people always seem to manage to find a dull solution as an easy production or something.... too much wrong kind of brain storms?

I've been noticing, following and agreeing with C1's point of view for a while now. I still hope the "Josh takes it all at the end" theory will not come true though.

Pooh and friends, I don't like Roddy's type either, just did not think I need to jump infront of Roddy's fans and declare. But never the less, "we" are not too small.

Hi ya Chyang :)
Gosh...my comments about Roddy weren't meant to stick it to his fans. I would never mean to do that. After the way everything went down yesterday I guess I just felt the need to vent alittle. I don't care for Roddy.....but that doesn't mean that I don't respect the people that do. I think that is what makes the board so interesting as that we all have different opinions and see different things in the HG's...it just happens that what "I" see; I don't like! LOL
Sidenote: as far as my comments go on his looks.......I never said the Rod-man wasn't attractive.....I just said that he didn't do anything for me. Shucks....sure hope I didn't make anyone feel bad.

Pooh <thinking if she made people feel bad that maybe she should consider hibernation again! : 0 >

Chyang - When they get down to 4, the agreement between R & E is void, per E request. That gives R a clear conscience to take C to the final 2, which is who he would have taken anyway.
