I want to see him evicted solely for the purpose of seeing the expression on Chiara's face when the announcement is made.

Her plan backfired, or did it really??

Quote from live feeds this morning:
Da/Li back to HRD, Da shares a Scripture verse, Lis says it's so hard to deal with when they're doing it right in your face, D says she knows, but she can do it.
End Quote

Shyguy, I really hope you are right and they are staging a 'shock' vote for Roddy to go. Is Lisa talking about Roddy/Chiara here?

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let them be smart and get rid of Roddy. That will take care of Chiara too. If they are planning on evicting Roddy, I don't think Josh is privy to that because he said he was very disappointed in Danielle. He even said he would vote for her in the end. I'd trust that over ANYTHING Roddy says.

I think we're seeing first hand how stupid they are! Lesson learned.

That's what I meant, Shadow, but you're right--I have been reading the boards too long!

If you play the game to eliminate people who annoy you as opposed to people who are the biggest threats to win the game, you have no chance.

Who cares if Josh is annoying. He can't win, so you put up with his annoyance.

Roddy is a real competitor.

Perhaps if everyone else in the house was from BB1 such a strategy could actually work. It will not fly this year.

There are no guarantees that Roddy will ever get nominated the rest of the game. You have to take your shot when you have it.

If you knew that whoever stayed in the house would NEVER get nominated again before the final 3, who would you rather have in the house with you? Josh or Roddy?

See, I'd rather have Roddy beside me than Josh. I don't believe that Roddy is this all-loved guy in the house. I think the HGs are onto him, and I think his chances of getting nominated with so much time left are very, very good.

Eliminating people from the house affects the environment which you're playing in. It only makes sense to shape that environment into something that you can live in, play in, think in, etc. It's a huge, huge part of the game, and I think that by simply scoffing at it you're missing the larger picture.

JMO.

as bad as josh is for some reason i dislike roddy more than josh. I dislike roddy's overwhelming insincerity.

but i think people are overestimating roddy as a player......he isn't really that smart, he just *thinks* he is, which is actually a great weakness other players can exploit to their advantage. Josh doesn't have the penchant for useless trivia roddy does, but he is far more cagey,and unpredictable, which makes josh far more dangerous. its better for them strategically to get out josh.

If I was thinking about the money, Marksman, Roddy would be out. But if I thought I'd be in there with Josh the entire 75 days -- it would give me a moment of pause!

(My fantasy: Jason walking into the DR to vote and is overheard saying, "Time to lock and load" or "Let's RUMMMMMMMMMBLLLLLLLLLE!")

I dont know if anyone mentioned this in the past threads but do they not remember how many times Will went up and they kept thinking they would keep him around because he was so hated? Big mistake obviouly........

Josh is NOT Will! that's the difference I don't see anyone giving Josh their vote at the end- unless hell opens up and everyone else falls in. lol

The problem is there are only a few people who really want to win... the rest have stronger motivations. The only one who total motivation is to win the money is Danielle. The rest have many other motivations mixed in with winning.

Gerry - wants to be a "star" or to be declared "teacher of the year"

Marcellas - wants attention and perhaps stardom/modeling career/job in the business. Sub-consciously (or perhaps consciously) did not want Roddy to leave.

Jason - would like the money but more important is making his family proud of him and his Christianity.

Roddy - wants to further his screenwriting career. Would have great career in politics. Also wants to feed his ego....

Chiara - just loves attention. Maybe wants an acting career. This is probably just a "lark" for her.

Josh - wants the money, wants notoriety, wants attention. Is one incident away from a nervous breakdown. It will be a blessing for him to be voted out (I say this as a former psychiatric social worker).

Danielle - money hungry conniver who would do ANYTHING to get her mitts on that money. Has an obsession with money. Might have grown up poor.

Lisa - who knows. She plays her cards so close to the vest it's impossible to know. Her parents did a good job of making her totally repressed.

Eric - I also don't know about him. The ultimate "strong and silent" type. He is very similar to Lisa. That's why their relationship may be doomed also.
