He previously worked as a production assistant for pro-wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper, and also worked in radio ad sales and phone sales. His three favorite hobbies are girls, music and television. He describes himself as sharp, quick and amazing. He is most proud of being the first person in his family to go to college and leave his hometown. His favorite sport is college football.

Ok, VA TECH is my alma mater AND he lists Girl Scout cookies as his favorite, so I gotta be rooting for this guy BIG TIME!!! Hope he's not a jerk!

The TV guide journalist liked this guy.... said Jon's goal was to have the first Survivor orgy!

Anyway, hoping he is likable.... but probably a big brat! :) Thanks, Kaili for the profiles!

I hope he isn't another crazy skateboard guy like whats-his-name was... wow. You know- the one who was sooooo hyper and explosive awhile back? From Phoenix?

I can't believe PBR is anybody in the world's favorite beer! Yuck!

This spells problem-child to me: "smarter than the average bear"; describes himself as sharp, quick and amazing. Or, perhaps a knucklehead: hobbies are girls, music and television; hero is Hugh Hefner. I don't imagine that he will contribute much to his team.

Kaili you are thinking of Robb with 2 b's. This dude said something on the early show preview that made me have an immediate dislike for him. I can't remember what is was though. I do love his favorite outside activities...Barbecuing and Tanning on the beach. :)

Wasn't he the one who said something like "My strategy is to vote off the older players first and just leave the younger/cooler/good-looking people"?
Yuck. I am sending loser energy his way.

Robbbbb junior is here. Of all the alcoholic beverages in the world, his favorite is PBR!? I have no idea how that fits in with the rest of what he says about himself, including tanning on the beach as being his favorite activity. Plastic flowers?

Hopefully with age his hero will change from being Hugh Hefner.

The following is from the Sept. 6 issue of the Pro Wrestling Torch newsletter, which Jon listed as one of his favorite magazines:

"He is expected to be one of this season's most obnoxious contestants."

he must be in awhile to be know as obnoxious. Don't like him

Reasons to dislike this guy:
His hat is ugly.
He has a sneering, smart-alec grin on his face.
His hero is Hugh Hefner
He likes plastic flowers
I foresee him using the F-word at least 50 times a day.
(sigh) I could go on and on.

I see him as a definite trouble maker. No leadership and offering very little contribution to the survival of the team.

Ugh. He reminds me of Jed, one of my most despised Survivors ever.

Double Ugh after seeing him in action

According to an interview I read yesterday,Probst says this guy tells the biggest lie in Survivor history.I can't figure out what that could mean.
But Good Lord this guy is annoying!

Crazydog

He will be the first one voted out from that tribe. But what could be the biggest lie in Survivor history? More so than Jerri's "Kel has beef jerky" - which got Kel evicted? More so than the Ghandia/Ted debacle? I hope it doesn't mean he sticks around for a long time.

Maybe he'll lie to Jeff about something, lie to cheat in a challenge? I don't like him. Not a fan. Nope.

His "bring on the naked teenaged girls" comment was deplorable. It would have been worse if he had said "naked girls", but the fact that they had to be teenaged makes it even worse.

Jeff doesn't like him but he says the following "this is the guy you want to see fall on his face, but when he does you want pick him up" sounds like in someway he redeems himself.
He is the likely "Big Lie" teller but that has not been confirmed 100%
And the lie is something that even Jeff believed and the survivors themselves probably don't know was a lie until they see it.

it made Jeff Go "mother F@@ker" but then "That's brilliant"

This survivor has the biggest lie ever told, the biggest regret and the jaw dropping twist.. (or so Jeff says)

Crazydog

Come to think of it, I think him telling this lie, whatever it is, tends to be a little spoilerish. The fact that it is the biggest lie in Survivor history indicates to me that he probably lasts a long time in the game. I'm trying to do an extra good job of remaining spoiler free this season, so I was wondering if we could do a better job of keeping spoiler info in the spoiler thread. Thanks.

I'm sorry It was an interview with Jeff reported several places so i didn't think of it as a spoiler, more of a teaser..

If something was "brilliant", then I don't think Jon has any part of it.

Why do they feel they need to have an obnoxious, young, jerk every season? We know we'll hate him, we're pretty sure he won't even make it to the jury, we know they'll edit in some redeemable qualities right before he's voted off. Another Rupert or Sandra or even Ryan would be better.
