Danielle, why she does not deserve a dime
TV ClubHouse: Archives: Danielle, why she does not deserve a dime
Misslibra | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:10 pm     Punkin, I agree Dani forgot about the end game and that is where she made her big mistake IMO. Dani help Lisa and I have always said I like Dani for that, but Dani also knew she could use Lisa in her corner by doing this. So when Dani helped Lisa she was helping herself. I wonder if Dani would of help Lisa if nothing was in it for her. Dani didn't have to do any of the dirty work either, other people was doing it for her. So you could say she was coasting along as well. Waiting for someone to get HOH to put up the people she wanted out of the house. Marcellas did some of her dirty work and look at the thanks he got from her. All Dani did was boast about how she was going to do this and that, but most of the game she didn't really do anything other then do a lot of talking and running her mouth about what she was going to do. |
Tallyho | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:20 pm     Dani did not practice what she preached "keep your eyes open and your mouth closed" By keeping quiet early all she had to do was sit back and watch other people go after each other. Things got very nasty and Dani did a good job to stay out of it. That was smart Those house guests left thinking Dani was BETTER than the others (and perhaps better than themselves) and than for some insane reason Dani started constantly trashing evicted house guests NOT A COUPLE OF TIMES Dani repeatadly trashed people who loved her and supported her and who were going to vote for her. She showed them that she was WORSE than the others and it has cost her the grand prize. If I KNOW FOR A FACT what horse is going to win a race and I bet on the horse to just place (finish in the top 3) Am I smart because I won some money? Or am I stupid because I could have won a lot more by betting the horse to come in first??? If Dani "kept her eyes open and mouth shut" she would be $500 grand richer next week. Heck, if she kept her eyes closed and her mouth closed she would have won. She engaged in insulting and offensive remarks about the people whose votes she needs to win. It is just a stupid strategy. Makes no sense no matter how you try to explain it or justify it. |

Other than this, I have no problem that she came into a game to win--if that meant lying okay but not to be cruel and say things that serves no purpose in advancing in the game... It is such a shame because if she would have not done this needless bashing I would say she deserves the 500Gs. So minus 450 grand as punishment for the bashing and da ta = 50,000. Plus maybe she will learn a lesson: Talking ugly about people cost her 450 grand...Very expensive lesson!

Monalisa | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:25 pm     Ok Tally, I'll give you my take on it. I wonder if Danielle would have been around so long if she wasn't so entertaining. Why did they like her so well, she entertained them with trash talk of other hg's. It was incredibly stupid of them to think that she was not doing (or would not do) the same to them. She did to them exactly what they loved seeing and encouraged her do to others. Seems as though they would have figured out Dani and Jason's alliance since Dani didn't trash Jason any. If they would have taken a minute out of reveling in her colorful impressions of others they might have figured it out, or at least questioned it. Not one has done that until Lisa in the last week. To be honest, if I were a hg, I would have told Danielle,"if you are ever going to mock me, please allow me in on the fun." I don't blame them at all for laughing, she was funny, had me rolling. Maybe that is why I can't judge her for it. |
Monalisa | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:30 pm     Tally, you are making an assumption. Who is to say that she would even still be in the game without her entertaining the remaining hg's. Perhaps her trash talking EARNED her $50,000. |
Pcnot | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:30 pm     Dani wasn't funny. Funny would have been the late Sam Kennisen coming in the house and blasting old Dani from here to Pittsburg.lol |
Trisha1 | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:33 pm     My point exactly Tallyho. To alienate the very people who had trusted her---not an intelligent move. One that will (should)cost her the game. There is only one "winner" Everyone else is an also-ran. Sure, some will have got some cash, holidays etc. but the ultimate winner is the one clutching the $500000 cheque. I think that won't be Danielle. |
Sanfranjoshfan | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:48 pm     If they kept Dani because her trash talking was funny and entertaining to everyone else, then I would have to surmise that no one in the jury would be offended at what she said behind their backs...it was "all in fun", right? Wrong. Yes she entertained the HGs that saw her trashing the others....but when the ones that were being "entertained" by her nastiness weren't looking....she "entertained" the others by trash talking THEM. Bottom line is that most of the HG apparently did not see her in her true light....until they got out of the house and saw the tapes and witnessed how she was when THEY were out of ear shot. A good example is that apparently Gerry didn't know how much either Marcellas or Dani trashed him when he wasn't around....but he saw that after he left. Same goes for Amy and Roddy, Chiara, and Tonya, etc... The ones that were being "entertained" realized that they, too, were fodder for mocking when their backs were turned. The jury is simply supposed to vote for who they WANT to win the half mil. They can use any criteria that they want to come to that decision. |
Smrtass | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:49 pm     So Tally, tell me. Do you think Danni is stupid and that Marc is an idiot? Cause I can't tell from the 1,000 times you've said so. |
Bmh | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:50 pm     I just dont think the criteria should be hurt feelings and emotional persuasion..this is a game and the winner should be the person that played the best game..and that doesn't necessarily have to even be Dani..but I truly believe the jury should NOT vote based on who they like more than someone else the final 2 isn't a vote on popularity sorry |
C1mag | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 04:51 pm     They didn't know she was saying things? Was she talking to the walls? There were many who knew what she was saying and also saying the same things... What they are shocked at is the fact that she played the game so good they didn't know how well she was playing it. She let many of them think she was playing for them when she was only playing for two people. Herself and Jason. So there real frustration isn't over her words. She beat them and the only thing they can sour grape about is hurt feelings based on words that many of them all used as well. It's the only thing they've got to complain about her but the fact is she played it better than they did. It's unfortunate that with this group of trash talkers that they are going to fault someone for trash talking. I can accept that but it's just so damn double standard. I'm still wondering how they would have thought they had a chance if this were the criteria to the top money prize...Were there words of trash going to somehow be considered ok? It's pitiful to hold it against her if they did the same thing. But thats whats gonna happen so thats that! Anyway... I was just thinking... Would it be too funny if Dani didn't even make the final 2? ahahahha Hey all is fair and if Lisa decides not to take her then thats the way it goes. Although I'd love to hear the reason for that choice other than getting even for dani being a liar. Whatever happens happens. As too the original topic... I still think Dani has earned at least 50 grand. |
Monalisa | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 06:31 pm     Sanfran, of course they can use any criteria they want. I am saying if their criteria is trash talking (and it sounds like it will be) they are ALL hypocrites. If they didn't see her "true colors" (equal opportunity basher - except for Jason)until after they left the house, then they are stupid, and it means that Dani did play the smarter game. |
Tallyho | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 08:23 pm     Smrtass: I have said it 1000 times because people still did not get it. They seem to think Marc NOT using the veto somehow is a sign of Dani being being smart. Its not. It was a stupid move, the ONLY way that Marc has any chance of being evicted is if he does NOT use the veto and he did NOT. Everytime I said that someone always seems to come back and say what a clever move that was on Dani's part. If Dani tells Marc to run into a wall and Marc does it that doesn't make Dani intelligent, it makes Marc a dope for doing something so stupid it does not make any sense. and C1mag: your theory makes ZERO SENSE, they loved Dani and the way she acted but because she played the game so well they now hate her. All you keep doing is saying EVERYONE ELSE DID IT, or THEY ENJOYED IT. Now you are making the HUGE stretch that she was only kept around because the others loved to hear her rude comments and if it wasn't for Dani's rudeness they might have voted her off earlier for being too polite???? FACT is Wed nite there will be quite a few people who left that house KNOWING they would vote for Dani and it was not she played a good game that got them angry (several of them left the house telling Julie how great Dani was playing) She kept yapping and she blew it and now you are going to claim its sour grapes not Dani's sour mouth. |
Pcnot | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 08:34 pm     Yes payback is a dogs' mama, honey. I can hardly wait for the next show. |
Cindyluvsroddy | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 08:37 pm     bmh - part of PLAYING the game is to not make ememies ... it is the most crtical part ... to somehow vote people off each week and still have their respect at the end .. that is part of PLAYING the game ... it is the part that Dani failed ... |
Jimmer | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 08:44 pm     Yes ... the fascinating thing about BB and Survivor is eliminating your opponents and doing it in a manner that enables you to get their vote at the end. As far as I'm concerned it's not a bad thing if some Jury members vote based on emotion - it's part of the game. |
Bmh | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 08:46 pm     I agree with you cindy definitely thats why she wont win..but I do feel she earned her spot in the final 2 for working her butt off the whole summer inside the house..she played one heck of a game |
Spunky | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 11:18 pm     Let's see her more recent accomplishments: She betrayed her only partner she lost HOH part 1 and part 2 She took credit for Lisa winning part 1 She put pressure on Jason with part 2 and 3 of the HOH, knowing full well she was safe anyway, she is now sucking up to the jury after dissing every one of them until today. yet this player stands to win not only 50 but 500k. Go figure.. |
Wcv63 | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 11:20 pm     Dani deserves the 500k.....she will take 502k at the very least. |
Spunky | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 11:22 pm     unfortunately... |
Wcv63 | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 11:43 pm     Or fortunately depending on your viewpoint. |
Lancecrossfire | Saturday, September 21, 2002 - 11:48 pm     well, without regard to how she played, she is in final 2, and be definition, deserves at least the 50K. As would any other player who makse the final 2. |
