Jo | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:23 pm     I am thrilled Ger got HOH. He is the wildcard that can totally alter the outcome of this game. I'd forgotten about his 'pact' with Roddy... but whoever came up with the "nominate Josh and Roddy, and ASSURE Roddy he's the decoy" idea hit the nail on the the head. BRILLIANT ploy, and one I am sure Ger will never figure out. LOL Wouldn't it be nice to see Roddy go down like that?? LOLOL This week promises to be very interesting! |
Cyn | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:27 pm     i am happy, happy, happy! i was dancing around my place screaming like the jets made a touchdown. |
Ladytex | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:33 pm     I was happy til I heard he was gonna put up Lisa/Chiara. I was hoping it would be Eric/Chiara or (better still) Eric/Roddy. I would love to see Roddy go this week. His threatening of the other hg's really turned me off. |
Bmh | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:33 pm     Ladytex..Josh confirmed that Gerry is going to put up Eric and Lisa not Lisa and Chiara |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:36 pm     JOSH confirmed something? God it must be true!!!! |
Bmh | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:37 pm     well I heard Gerry say he is goin to put up Eric and Lisa too..so ya Im pretty sure it's them |
Webkitty | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:48 pm     Gerry is <in my opinion, not the brightest bulb in the pack>. Eric and Lisa? I just knew he would make a hairbrained decision like that. If he doesn't cut the head off the snake this week he deserves to get bitten next week, and believe me, Roddy will bite his butt all the way out the door. He should have put up Roddy and Eric, with Josh as a standby in case of a veto. Whatever. JMO (c) |
Bmh | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 10:51 pm     I agree webkitty..but the only reason I would enjoy seeing Eric and lisa up is that Roddy and Josh are so sure Lisa would go that I cant wait to see the look on their face when Eric is evicted bc I know he will be if it is Eric vs. Lisa |
Ladytex | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 11:02 pm     I agree Webkitty. E/L is stupid, IMO. The Josh/Tanya couple vote turned out to be a big disappointment. Put up the opposites. If he feels like he cannot nom Roddy, then put up his gf vs. Eric. Make him sweat, make him make a public decision. You can bet, he wouldn't try to win veto. |
Gouraphik | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 11:15 pm     No...Eric & Lisa is a good move. Scan my comments in the "If Gerry puts up one of us Four he is fried" thread for the details, but essentially, he could set Roddy up to become the replacement nom, provided that he can get the Veto winner to remove Lisa. This way, it would be very difficult for Roddy to escape. Only Roddy winning or using Veto (he'd screw things up immensely) or Josh using Veto (he might save Eric) would prevent Roddy from doing an exclusive interview with Julie Chen come next Thursday. That and the Clique (Danielle, Jason & Marcellas) not voting as a unit. With Eric & Roddy's hands truly tied (they won't be tied until after the Veto meeting), it becomes easier to set up a majority-evict-Roddy vote or a tie, so that Gerry can boot him for good (until the Twist, at least...depending on what that twist is). Worst case scenario: you lose Lisa, who is a strong competitor being that she's pretty much under the radar (albeit not as much as Jason & Danielle). Not a bad consolation prize, I must say. |
Eden | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 02:58 am     I am tired of consolation prizes and decoys and predictable evictions. Enough of the little fish, I want Roddy dangling from the hook! Gerry has got the votes to do it if he has the guts to be the tie-breaker himself. Go for the blow-hard fish! Rid us of RODDY! Nothing against Roddy personally, but he's set himself up as the "king" manipulator of the game just begging for a set down. I'm not wild about either couple, I think they are both dull. I see little difference in watching people smoke and play card to those lying around like slugs spewing salacious comments that just come off as crude. Besides, I think it will be fun to watch the four of them devour themselves, and or everyone else, trying to create a preordained outcome. |
Wcv63 | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 03:04 am     Eden I just got a wonderful mental image of Roddy struggling on the end of a fishing pole and then Gerry holding up his trophy catch by the feet while wearing a huge grin. |
C1mag | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 03:36 am     I've said it before.... Lose the thought about Gerrys Promise to Roddy. It's a smoke screen laiden with pig slop as far as I'm concerned. I believe good ol Gerry made a couple of promises to Marcellus when he hounded Marcellus durring the times no one would talk to him. These promises were made well before he promised Roddy ANYTHING and that was the second there was a door of opportunity he would go after Roddy. Well, here's his chance, and all of a sudden he just can't seem to remember those conversations. All we can do is hope that Marcellus reminds him before nominations. I watched and listened to Roddy playing Gerry in that hoh this evening and it was disgusting. Gerry is just as enamored with Roddy as everyone else is in that house. He crawls right under their skin and praises them and gushes all over them and every time they buy it. Just like how Roddy played Amy he knew exactly what to say to Gerry. The nominations for Gerry should be so easy. Just include Roddy as one of the nominees and tell him he is the decoy this time so no one uses the veto to save him. Keep telling him he is safe and mention nothing about your real plans. If someone by chance gives Rod the veto then you shove in Eric. The silent trio will tie the vote and Gerry can have the golden moment of either evicting Eric or Roddy out of the game. it's that simple. However, up until the veto the target should be Roddy. At this point Gerry really shouldn't worry about how the house would respond if he did this. He should be use to rough treatment by now. He would have support from at least 3 people in the house after that and a scrambling former member of the destroyed self proclaimed royal empire scrambling for cover all on their own. Whats so hard about this plan? This is why I'm not happy with Gerrys victory for hoh. He just doesn't get it at all! This will probably be the last time for a couple of weeks where you could have nailed the king! Sorry this was so long but I really do think this particular hoh is crucial and Gerry is going to prove that he is not worthy of the prize. It's one of those moments where you wanna scream at him and wake him up. He's already talking too much to Josh and he's getting ready to set up King Roddy for a victory at the end of the game. |
Sherbabe | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 07:22 am     Gerry will stick to his word w/ Roddy. He already broke his promise the first week. He will not make that mistake again. |
Blinky | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 07:34 am     Who would of thought Gerry would be sleeping in the HOH room after these last two weeks>>>All I can say is my prayers were answered and "HELL FROZE OVER"just in the nic of time. Now hopefully he has the guts to skate over thin ice and put Roddy's rat a$$ in the frying pan where it belongs |
Msnapsnap | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 08:07 am     Gerry will nominate Eric & Lisa. Chiara will win power of veto. She saves Lisa. Gerry nominates Roddy. Roddy is evicted. |
Mr_Bozack | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 08:11 am     Not bad, would've rather seen either Eric or Josh as HOH, but not bad. At least it saves Josh and Roddy for another week (Gerry can't put up Roddy, as he made that deal with Roddy last week and going back on that would surely do him in). Lisa and Eric are probably going up on the block. |
Mslyegirl | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 08:14 am     Mr. B, I disagree. (I'm a poet and didn't know it LOL) He has to get rid of Roddy. So what he made a deal with him. Roddy would nominate him in a heart beat. Roddy is the biggest threat right now and he has to go! |
Bigfan | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 08:17 am     Happy.Happy.Happy!!!!!!! I was clapping and cheering!!! These kids have treated this man like he was spoiled liver in the hot sun. I'm going to enjoy watching this group get up early to spend day break with Gerry! Gerry is not my pick to win but I have hated every minute of the bad treatment he has recieved. This guy deals with Jr. High Kids for a job, he's got this group figured like a banker on a millioaire money! Being quiet about your plans does not mean that your stupid. This man hasn't had anyone to talk to about what he's got up his sleeve and it should make for a good week since everyone will be warming up to the old guy for some chat time. You gotta love this game!=) |
Woodpecke® | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 08:20 am     Gerry getting HOH makes this game much more interesting. One of the "four" needs to be sent out, and it would be good to see him nominate Lisa and Eric. If Danielle got POV, I would love to see her nominate Jason to make this game totally unpredictable. |
Roamjotiba | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 08:24 am     On the Live feeds I thought when Roddy and Gerry were talking, Gerry agreed too not use veto if he won it, if Roddy kept him off the block for the week. |
Realfan | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 09:14 am     I cheered when Gerry won HOH. I think he should nominate Lisa and Chiara, the two girlfriends. I would LOVE to see the fireworks that ensue between not only the two girls, but between their boyfriends, Eric and Roddy. Chiara has said on numerous occasions she wanted to nominate Gerry out of the house. Get rid of her NOW. And Lisa's no friend to him, either. By doing this, Gerry could sow dissention in the ranks of four, yet keep his promise to Roddy. And perhaps we could rid ourselves of the potty-mouth <> Only flaw in this plan is losing yet another woman, but I don't think of the players based on their sex anymore. The girls screwed Amy over and made her feel bad about herself. As far as I'm concerned, it's payback time! |
Spunky | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 09:29 am     How lucky for Josh and Roddy. They made a deal with Gerry just on time, as if they knew he was going to win HOH. So again the two I want nominated will be still there next week. I'm afraid there are too many men and the women will never be HOH again. |
Shadowkat | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 09:47 am     I'm thrilled that Gerry won HOH because he's the only one of the hg's I think has the courage to nominate the stronger players. I don't think he's worried about breaking a "promise" he made to Roddy. All Gerry promised was that he "owes" Roddy...that could be taken many ways. I think nominating Roddy and Eric is what Jason, Marcelles, Josh and Danielle really want, but are afraid to do it themselves...plus, if Jerry did this, Ja/M/Jo/D will owe Gerry big time, and that will help him in the long run. With the number of "deals" that have been made in this game, everyone is going to have to lie at one point or another, so I don't think Gerry should worry about it. |
Wedge | Friday, August 02, 2002 - 09:53 am     So glad Gerry won! Shows what having an interest in others lives will get ya. I think that its not really a man/woman thing in the HoH comps. If the women were to pay attention or actually want to get to know the other HG's ( other than sexually) they could easily win. So far most comps are based on HG trivia. Granted if they have a weight lifting tourney the girls are out but if its brains over brawn, I think its anybody who listens ball game. |
