It has been a tough time through the whole game for me as a Danie(this is her spelling) fan. I am so happy to see her still in the house. I feel quite certain she is a shoe in for at least 50K at this point. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the jury will award Danielle the big prize for how well she played the game. As they did last year with Wil. Unfortunately for Danie she has Roddy outside the house working his magic on the other members of the jury. Wil did not have such a handicap plus he was up against the very unlikeable Nicole.

I really believed Danielle yesterday when she said she will be happy with 50K for three months work and the experiences she has had this summer.

I am going right over there. I am so proud of the supporters that have stuck up for her consistently throughout all the threads (what a brave fight you fight). I don't have the backbone for it and it makes me sad with all the bashing. I have positive opinions, but I think that some get way over zealous about the negative ones (not that there is anything wrong with that). Love Dani, love the way she has played the game, and would love to see her win. She is focused, and determined.

The others cannot see that she has played the game better than anyone. She has been loyal to Jason and the others are just angry that they were fooled. I wouldn't object to any of the remaining winning, however, I think Danielle deserves the big prize. Go Dani!

Dani has been a good leader/player. IMO she has brought the other three this far into the game and if the evicted HG vote for the best player, she will win if she is one of the final two.

Wow! Gramma thanks for pushing us to write to Dani cause I am pretty sure my letter was one of the ones they excerpted (I would be proud to have you as a friend).

Did you all notice that Lisa confirmed what we all know to be true-they weren't dissing people last night- she really was taken aback by the question. I spent lots of time on the boards yesterday trying to say that I had listened all afternoon and that it hadn't been that way but the Dani bashers were making up a whole story about it.

By the way, I wish you who don't have folders in the member area would get them because I wanted to leave support messages to my friends from the trenches like WCV3, C1mag, BMH and others and there's nowhere to do it.

I agree meggie..Lisa was really surprised by that question..they weren't even dissing..they were reminising..all the dAni bashers of course had to make up some elaborate story and say Dani is evil and has to stop bashing....

Ya but it is great..I am glad myself and others got their messages posted on Dani's board..it is a true honor..GO DANI!!!

yep meggie I know...but I finally realized that something , I think whit or wcv said, is true; we feel how we feel and they feel how they feel and no matter how much we talk to each other, neither side will change it's mind.

In fairness I think the Roddy fans felt the same way...it's just that most of us were on the opposite side of that debate

meggie you can creat folders for them if you want...do you mean at teh members page? Just scroll to the bottom and click on the create a new conversation bar.

Then just type in the person's name in the title bar..and leave them a message. Voila! They have a member's folder!

Now Lisa is replaying the convo over and over trying to figure out why it would "bite her in the butt". She said again- "we didn't diss people!" Jan, I know we need to agree to disagree with those who persist in fabricating stuff- it's just too bad someone with that viewpoint got their question through! It just didn't happen that way. I hate that the bad energy of it just got into the house.

I know I can create folders but I often think that perhaps they might not want one so I wouldn't presume they do... but if its a love note, they would probably want it!

Yeah meggie lots of people don't even know that that area exists and most people who find it seem to want someone to create a spot for them..so I think anyone would be thrilled if you created one for them, especially for a love note.

Hey Dani fans...here's a sad thought. Maybe the reason that so many of our fanmail posts got quoted is because our 24 messages are just about all the positive fan mail on the net for her???

I can't find any other sites. Does anyone else have links to positive Dani sites? I tried google but no luck.

thanks bmh. I found the two sites for Dani that you posted in another thread..but I noticed one has only 38 members and the other only 16.

SIgh I don't think she has too many fans like us.

Anyone else starting to wonder if Gramma works for CBS?

Just teasing, but it could be construed as coincdental that they quote Dani's newly written email only hours after being pressed to write some

Just in case you do work for CBS, can you do something about the FOTH cam?

Although I'm shy about posting and only have done so once before, the many Dani bashings have also gotten to me.

Dani is not my favorite, but I'd be very pleased if she won. I think she had a lot to be proud of before she came in the game, and nothing to be terribly ashamed about after she leaves--win or lose. I counseled teenage mothers at one point in my life, and can't help but cheer the determination and spirit of a woman and a minority member and teenage mother--3 catagories that have to try harder to catch up--who has worked her way to a decent job and who has loved and provided well for her family, especially as her husband implied that he hadn't always been there for her.

I think she had the concrete goal of a house for her family pictured in her mind from the beginning, keeping her focused most of the time. It gave her a psychological advantage and it was an admirable and compelling goal compared to some of the more nebulous desires of her housemates like attention, money, fame, showing off their powers of persuasion, etc. which are harder to visualize.

As far as her "bashing," I think she (and Marcellus and Amy) are individuals whose feelings are close to the surface. The degree of emotionalism a person has is determined by a combination of genetics and environment, and those with feelings close to the surface tend to move from anger, compassion, resentment, affection, etc. quickly and easily, which gives them a certain disadvantage compared to more reserved and inhibited personalities like Lisa and Jason whose reserve allows them time to moniter their responses. Although some of her "bashing" may have been game playing, I think a lot of it was an honest emotional response, sometimes humorous, to what upset her in the other housemates. And I think aligning with what many people would consider the least offensive, "nicest" houseguests in the house--Jason & Lisa--for the final three is very telling. She's clearly aware from things she has said that that bringing others who are more offensive and less liked would be to her advantage in the end, but I think a basic decency in her responds to those who are basically decent, loyal and trustworthy (at least when they aren't playing this "devil" of a game.) Yah, Dani!

I haven't been around all that much this BB but thought I would stop by to say I adore Danielle. I like all who are left and anyone can win and it will be fine with me. Lisa, Dani and Amy are favorites. Jason would be my last choice. Just tired of good wholesome boys winning things. No logic there, just my preference. I like edges.

I'm still on board for a Dani win. Next week will be tricky for her, and *really* hope she doesn't get third place! She has given the others an anchor around which to rally, and I think that's commendable, especially as she is getting the lion's share of the criticism. Go Dani!

reenie..what a great post..can we get you to say similar things in Dani's fanmail site?

You too bat.We are trying to recruit as many as possible.

Just click below and you will be taken directly to the site. We figure she will see a lot of mean things when she gets out so we would like to provide some good stuff too.

Pretty crazy that this thread is neck and neck with the the Dani opinion thread with the angry icon. Here's one for the home team!

Glad to see Dani relaxing and having a good time tonight! I think it's nice to see all of them taking a break for a while.

I just wanna say again how much respect I have for the way Danie has played the game. She said from the beginning that her goal was for her and Jason to make it to the end. They have! She has been soo loyal to that goal and to Jason. How people can see that as her being a bad person I don't understand. Of course people are entitled to their own opinions. :)

I feel like Dani & Jason outplayed all the others and if they are the final two they earned it! Kudos to Dani for doing what she said in the very beginning... making sure her and Jason were there at the end!

Reeniehere, do you also think that Dani's tendancy toward gossiping could be a result that she entered "adulthood" so early and didn't outgrow it? I guess I'm wondering because, if we all admit it, we all have probably gossiped and "bashed" when we were young, like in high school and college. But, as we aged and had life experiences, we learned to drop these traits as we learned and realized they were not appropriate.

Since Dani became an "adult" when she became pregnant at 15, she didn't have the experiences one would normally have to outgrow certain behaviors.

Just curious as to your thoughts on this Reeniehere since you have had experience in this area.

I answered this in the other thread, too, but for good measure...

Plenty of adults gossip. Has nothing to do with being a teenage parent. Has to do with getting in the habit of entertaining oneself at the expense of others and/or just getting in the habit of discussing your opinions of others all the time.
