August 26th I dunno...Never thought there was an advantage to my surgery last year but I didn't start school until the week after BB ended.

Roddy seems to think that he has Chiara,Lisa,and Jason on his side and he thinks he has the power to get rid of Dani and Marcie easily..he may be very manipulative..but he is losing power fast..Josh goes tonite..that leaves him and chiara...with no other suppoters..because everybody else in the house has basically agreed to put him up with Chiara if they get HOH..

With some persuasion..Lori and Amy would do what L/M/Ja/D want..Tonya could be trouble..same with Eric but Eric would nominate Gerry in a second...no matter what Roddy wants..Gerry got rid of him he is out for blood..so gerry is very venerable if Eric returns

I just hope either Chiara or esp. Roddy is gone next week..and I think it is a possiblity no matter who manipulative he is

Good question, llkoolaid. As far as I can remember Roddy was subdued when the noms and the veto meetings were held. Beyond that, his cockiness has shown through.

Are there any SPECIFIC examples of this cocky behavior, or perhaps psters are seeing what they want to see because they don't want him to win. seems if he is the room he gets accused of cocky behhavior, yet he seems to be just having the same covos as the others are having. I want to dislike Roddy as much as the board does so I can finally be in the majority, but I don't see the over cokyness that he is attributed.


Like I said any specific examples of this behavior today?

I don't dislike Roddy, but he does have a elitist air about him sometimes. As if he is the master and the other HG's are his puppets. It might have something to do with him winning HOH last time and then his partner in crime winning it the second time. I think the HOH room makes some of their heads swell.

Ryan -

I really feel for you. That's only 10 days away!!!
As my screen name implies I am now retired so I don't have to worry about going back to school any more. Do you a have laptop so you can keep up--small enough to conceal in say a big ole binder so it looks like you're busily taking notes in class??

Retired - Waiting on some money to buy one, but not sure I'll be able to swing internet access.

Hey Ryan take those notes in class and forget about BB while you are there. If you are too busy to keep up send me your e-mail address and I will send you and up-date once a week.

Keiffer, unless you have been actually watching the camera feeds, it would be hard to explain. (You may have been watching, I don't know) Even when I was posting, nothing had been entered in the LFP and I wondered if those posters (when they got to it) would have seen the same thing?

They did!!! so I do not feel as if I am just making things up or bashing Roddy, necessarily. (Tho I will admit I do not like him these days)

He seemed to me very contemplative for the last two days.....and tho I think he is worried about what happens next......today he seems to be hopping (not literally) all over the place with such abandonment, wise-cracking, etc.

I don't know where Josh is at this point, but for Roddy to be a friend, I think his "joy" could be a little less enthusiastic in consideration of that friendship. Granted, I have not seen him act this way in front of Josh, YET.....(but I don't put it past him)

The other Roddy behavior I saw as pseudo-intellectual, scheming (that's okay, it's a game show), and generally sophisticated. He has been playful at times, but moody at other times.

Today he just seems so totally different.

I would appreciate an update on what's going on every few days. I'll be able to watch feeds some but not nearly as much as I have over the summer. I'll give you my e-mail address before school starts.

Roddy deserves to win if these fools don't vote him out soon. JMO!

Roddy acting cocky? Of course he is......the charade of "I'm your old pal Rod, I'm a good Guy", has been a very effective facade for him the past week. The votes are already cast, so his real cocky self can start to come out to the surface. You cant be phony forever!

Hi everyone

Have the HG actually said how they voted? Is it a slam dunk that Josh is out? That is/will be the biggest mistake they ever made. Dani, Lisa, and marci are all completely shafted if Roddy is still in. MHO

From lfp:
Chiara and Dani talking about "morning wood"

Ch: Sometimes when it pokes me in the back I don't know what to do..

Dani: it pokes you in the back?

Chi: yeah..when we're spooning...

Maybe Rod is being "Cocky"

Well, it's pretty cocky to talk to Lisa about how Dani and Marcellus are the ones who talked Jason into to voting out Eric. Really, who does he think he is talking to? It's like he doesn't get it. Lisa was the beneficiary of Jason's vote.
It's like Lisa doesn't matter.
Lisa was smart not to say anything, but I wish she could have said, "Maybe they like me better,Roddy"

Actually, I heard the conversation between Gerry and Roddy and Roddy did, in fact, say, I'll be here this week...

Well, it has been two hours since I posted asking for one specific example of this cocky behavior that has vreated so many posts. FuddyDuddy made an attempt but then ended up in generalitied about watching the live feeds as proof. I am wondering if a person who believes this remembers a moment of which proves this huge cokyness on ROddy's part.

I can point out to moments with Danny's, but really can't find the ROddy moments.

I agree BB. I really think Roddy thinks Lisa is on his side. She was so cool though!! I'm so proud of her, she didn't let on to anything!

Well I haven't noticed Roddy being cocky. He seems the same to me. JMO. I just found the convo between he and Lisa funny, like he was telling her something she didn't know. Other than that nada thing different.

Gee Keiffer you and your examples!

Well, he got tired of playing the martyred nominee and has been flitting (yes that's right I said flitting) around the house giggling and making smug remarks.

Cockiness is an attitude Keiffer. To be boldly or brashly self-confident. That's our Roddy!

Keiffer, I think you're too enamored of Roddy to see his cockiness. You ask for specific examples, but I can't break it down that way. Except for the 2 moments of his appearing subdued, I think the cockiness is part of the total Roddy package... his speech, his demeanor, his body language, etc.

ps... Dani is very cocky, too, and we've seen it in her DR segments, but she seems to downplay it in her interactions with the HGs.

Keiffer, just came across your response to my post earlier today.

I did not feel it necessary to go into great detail about what Roddy was specifically doing to make me think he was acting cocky today.

Am glad to see some others agree with me and I especially think that Wcv63 nailed it on the head with the "flitting" description. That says it all......

He is good at playing this game and is now busy making "new friends". He may well get to the finals-more power to him. He is just not my choice.

And by the way, I think each of the HGs should do what they have to do to play their game. But I think to use someone like he has Chiara is disgusting. And I don't even like Chiara!!!

Keiffer...See my post above. It absolutely proves his "cockiness".

Don't wanna start another thread so I'll post this here...

I keep reading comments in various threads re Roddy getting out of the TUB.... but to me it makes pefect sense. The vote to keep him in the house was 5 - 0 - not ONE person in that house was willing to go against him. He KNOWS how many people who are wanting to get Chaira AND Gerry so why would he feel in the slightest threatened?

BUT if he DID get HOH this week he'd lose the game - think about it he'd have to put up TWO (or three if there is a veto) of the 5 people who just covered his butt.. then he'd have at LEAST two or three people out to get him for doing that.. and he'd be the target the following week hands down after Chaira or Gerry leaves this week. See?

Him NOT getting HOH gives him way more power then getting HOH would have - the man's a chess player.. and anyone who plays chess knows how you have to think of hundreds of options on the next move "if I do this then he could do this or that or this or that....." if I do this... then he'll do this or that or this or that. Chess is a game where the longer you play it and the better you get the more moves ahead you can think of - he has no doubt in his mind that he's NOT a target this week obviously if they wanted him out vote wouldnt have been 5-0. He also knows that he HAD to throw this comp - or walk out the door the following week after stabbing in the back 2 or 3 of the people who kept him in the house.

I agree, Whit, and think he felt sure of the odds of Amy losing HOH.

I'm sure as the other HG left the game he was re-thinking his aversion to squid. I did love KiKi screaming "no--don't give up!" to Lisa and Jason. She could never play poker, lol...

keiffer, there are examples of dani's cockiness and of roddy's. do you mean today? i haven't been around much today, but during the past week he has 'upgraded jason. made him the new eric' (pp) he also wanted everyone to lay off strategy talk and try to make josh's last week a good one. that seems pretty cocky to me. don't forget i said that i think dani is cocky too. i think this might (and i mean might) be their downfall. they are both very good strategists, but...hubris is a dangerous thing.
