I have always liked Clay, he's colorful and entertaining. A little paranoid and hyper but that's what makes him interesting.
He is playing the game hard, but that's how it should be. I just don't know if I can stand to watch another UTR cost to F2, know what I mean?

Kady, thanks for reporting that, how cool! Moondance is right, you taught him well!

Cool Kady, why did he get that impression?

Clay is an excellent player.

He is not an under the radar type, not boring and I like that he says whats on his mind.

He said he was a diamond in the rough and has shown he can compete with the best of them.

We didn't like Richard Hatch but he was the best player on the show.

Could Clay be the Richard this year?

Wait a minute, I liked Richard Hatch, and I like Clay as well. Right from the start I liked Clay and Ted and their Big Black Guy and Little White Guy act. I want Clay and Ted for the final 2. Oh, wait, I like Helen, too. Don't like Brian and Jan.

I liked Richard also. Not as a person but as a player.

I like Clay for the same reason.

Jan has done nothing as a player that we have seen.
She seems nice but would have been gone long ago if their tribe wasn't on a winning streak.

Her best play so far was in refusing to vote Ted off.

Remember he was talking to elementary kids so they didn't know good questions. :) My son said Clay made the comment that they waited a long time to feed him after he left the island. My son insist that that is proof he didn't make it to the end. He said Clay was entertaining and talked alot about Thailand. Most of the questions asked was about last nights show...about riding the elephant, what did you miss most from home and junk like that. Clay also said he wasn't going against CBS by talking before he has been booted. I wish I could tell you more, but that is all the info I could get. :)

He is starting to get on my last nerve. "Go big Ted"!!!

Clay is smarmy.

He's also not too bright. His strategy to tell everyone he meets that they're in the Final 4 is not terribly smart. It will work only until he votes off his competition... won't take too long before every single person on the jury knows he lied to them. Like Danielle of BB3, he seems to be foregetting that the game doesn't end once you vote someone off--they vote for you in the end.

Call me crazy, but I don't dislike Clay. Hey, if everyone wants to believe him when he says "I'll take you to the final 4" then that's their problem, not his. If it bites him near the end, then he'll learn it didn't work.

The recap show also showed us that "diva" is what Ghandia called herself. So, Clay's "bye-bye Denver Diva" at tribal council wasn't as jerky as we all thought it was. Probst should have known she called herself diva. The "bye-bye" part was arrogant, but writing Diva should have been okay.

I'm not saying I want him to win, but I think he's a lot smarter than I first thought he was.

I dislike him for his arrogance, not for my assessment of his intelligence.

I, too, dislike Clay's arrogance...and sometimes even the most intelligent are brought down by it. I will say, though I am not a total Brian fan, his arrogance is mostly well disguised which speaks well of his savvy.

I think there is more to it than just promise them what you think they want to hear. If Clay makes it to F2 I am waiting to see how he plays it. A huge part of the game is how you answer those jury questions. The game has been lost by someone not having a plan. I think he is facile enough to have an answer to anything they ask him.

I am really interested in this guy's game.
The three Sook Jai jury members so far have had no bad words for him. He set Penny up, but she invited him to her wedding.

If Clay is in the F2 with Brian,I believe Penny would chose him to win over Brian...after all,Clay tried to get Jake out,not her.
She'll remember that with her million dollar vote!

That was exactly why Clay cast that vote. He knew it would not matter to his tribe...they had the majority without him, but it gave him a vote on the jury. Nothing to do with Jake's speech at TC.

i would be more sure penny would give him her vote had he cast a vote against one of the chuay guys, not sook.
but, you're right--clay's not stupid!

Magikearth

Monday, December 02, 2002 - 02:50 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Oh,yeah! Good point,Tabbyking..Clay did tell the Sooks that he would vote against Ted,then backed out!
BTW-I love your name! :)

I think Clay is way more liked by the rest there (and not just CG) than MB has shown us. Maybe he IS the winner, and MB doesn't want to give it away by showing this.

I think if he does make it to F2, he will be genuine in his answers, he's not the type to hold back, that's for sure. I expect the words to flow, and am looking forward to this if it does happen.

Past final TC have left me frustrated with hedging and nonsense by some. Vee's words were measured and Neleh just rambled.

Still holding out for Brian and Helen, but I won't be really disapointed if Clay makes F2.

thanks, magikearth--and yes, i do have a wonderful **tabby cat...but for me, the tabbyking is also for stephen king's wife, tabitha, whom he calls
'tabby'.

**my cat's full name is 'drew, i can't believe i gave this contest 2 months of my life webpee'-- because we adopted him almost 4 years ago during one of the drew carey contests--but we just call him 'webpee'. the vet told me he has never had a patient with that name, even the shortened 'webpee'!!...what a surprise!! lol

I think Clay may be more well liked than we see too. He is outgoing, witty and very upbeat. I would not be surprized to see him win a jury vote.

He has been arrogant and certainly out there with his opinions of some of the others but we are not seeing the entire picuture. I like Clay. I don't like some of the things he has said but we are not seeing everything and some of the others may be saying things far worse.

Clay could win this if up against Brian in the end. I see that match as hard to call.

Magikearth

LOL Tabbyking! Have you ever called your cat by his full name(s)?

One more question! Do you like the Rock Bottom Remainders?(Stephen King's rock band featuring various authors who peform for charity) I remember seeing them perform on tv and thinking," Wow,what a cool idea!" They rock!

Okay,back to Clay..I can really see him winning the whole thing.He comes off as a down-to-earth,folksy kind of guy,whereas Brian seems his polar opposite-very cool and distant.
Brian's video from home might have done him in-he didn't seem joyful or emotional while watching his family.
Besides,the few people I know who watch Survivor think that Brian has this game in the bag-which probably means Clay wins,right?

But what do I know? I want Jan to win!
I will keep saying it until she's booted! :)

"But what do I know? I want Jan to win!

That makes two of us! I love her and she cracks me up. She may be UTR as far as the game goes, but she still has quite the colorful personality herself. :)

BTW, Clay has been having Survivor parties in his restaurant since day 1 and a lot of people took that to mean he goes far. He's even made a few comments to people in his restaurant that have proven to be good spoilers. Interesting.

Herm, what comments have proven to be good spoilers?
