SanFran, I see it as more of an "excuse" to use against those that don't like Marc. It's been discusseda number of times how on the variyos shows involving voting someonne out, people will grab on to any reason they can to justify a negative thought about someone.

Kind of like Gerry's size has been mentioned a number of times when they bash him--yet his weight/size has nothing to do with how well he plays the game.

I have to admit, it seems like they are really grasping at straws a lot of the time.

Looks like it's Marcellas and had to take Amy along since she didn't give him a chance to choose someone else.

I wonder if Marcellas' popularity will make the others think he has to go next.

I don't think that Amy didn't give Marcellas an opportunity to select anyone else. Danielle said she was teasing Amy about not giving Marcellas a chance to choose someone else. It seemed that everyone knew he was going to take Amy. Wasn't that posted in the lfp somewhere?

I know, Amy moved in right away on that--throw on that Marcie bathrobe and take that HOH key, girl! She does have a tendency to horn in on his little victories. Still, happy they are going to the special dinner. They both could use some cheering up.

Will put this in the HGs quotes: Roddy says to Marc about going to the dinner (paraphrase): "I would've worn a jock strap and tear-away chaps." LOL!

Zenyah's right. I just read in the live feed posts where Marcellas was joking about which of the 3 men he would pick (Jason, Eric, or Roddy) but he then said everyone should know he would take "his girl".

Roddy already knows that Marcellas is a threat.

Apparently Roddy did say M had the "wrong demographics".. Danielle later said to Marcellas and Jason.. "does he think black people don't have computers?"

I voted once for Marcellas and 6 times for Amy and I'm very happy with my "investment". I wanted her to win, but this boosted him so much, I'm pleased with the outcome.

I hope we get to see the dinner on the feeds.. I need more camera time of the Amy and Marcellas show before she's gone and things become even more serious.

(Much as I love him, I find it funny that he's a bit indigant that she was hoping for at least one vote in the eviction and said it in front of him, like she was campaigning.. I mean I've heard him say "I want to stay" repeatedly.. isn't that campaigning? But, I still love him. And her).

San Fran.. in BB1 when they revealed that Brittany was the most popular on some poll, that caused her to be targetted by George's family over anyone else when they campaigned to save George.. not sure if that works with in house votes, but I think almost ANY positive thing could be used against someone by this bunch.

I think anything that sets another player apart from the pack or tends to place them ahead of Roddy and his satellites in the popularity contest is not going to work to his or her advantage.

Last year when Will/Shannon had their goin' way for Shannon Dinner, it was shown on lf but that was not after having won an America's choice contest. Apparently Amy and Marci are under the impression that they will be leaving the house to go to a swanky seafood restaurant; but it may only be catered in. Lets hope for a trip out of the house like Will/Bunkys Chopper tour last year.

Roddy just said that it was a "landslide" for Marcellas and AMy!

The DR told Marci or amy that Marci won by a landslide. Roddy seemed jealous. Before we could hear more they FOTHed.

The only thing this does is deflate that big head ( on his shoulders) of Roddys a bit. Remember, both he and Eric have been saying that if it is the four of them in the end ( Eric, Roddy, Lisa, and Chiara) this would be what we the viewer would want. The message through this popularity poll tells him that isn't exactly what the viewer wants.

If anything this helps marcellus because Roddy is all about image. Roddy continues to be very aware of what is being fed to the viewer and how they view him. He may not think it is within his best interest to stomp out marci's light just yet. He sorta thought by saving Josh he would be giving those fabricated males 15-30 what they wanted. Where he came up with that idea I will never figure out. Anyway, Roddy wants to win but he wants to be LIKED as the winner. Read his bio. Going after a popular houseguest right now would not fulfill that goal. He's a sleaze but he wants to be known as a clean sleaze. Is there such a thing?

Too bad BB didn't have them choose the person BEFORE the voting. They asked them the question, they should have had them make the decision right then. I think many voted for Marcellas beause of the clip from the DR that he would take Roddy. I would have loved to see the Marcellas/Roddy show.

Oh well. I am still glad Marci won. He's the one I would have voted for if I wasn't so cheap. Talk about what a clinging vine Chiara is. Amy is just as bad with Marcellas. I just hope the others stick to the game plan and vote Amy out, she is a stone around Marcellas' neck. I want Marcellas to stay.

Roddys comment proves my point. He did consider this a popularity contest and knowing him the way we do I predict he is going to restructure his plan and it will privately include keeping marci in as long as he can because that way he won't be known as the one who booted Americas choice. Remember, he thought he and eric and the girls were what we wanted along with some humor from Josh and apparently thats not what we want. I think this works to Marcis favor. Roddy is all image and wants to win with dignity so he says. He will embrace Marci even more thinking it will improve his "Q" factor.

Love it, love it, love it. Gosh, maybe they can get Josh to cook up all the "good food" for the week and they can have own really popular people dinner.

I agree C1. Roddy is very concerned about this image and "Q" factor.. Good point!
