Okiekerriella | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 04:25 am     Give me an "E"! |
Curiouscat | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 04:30 am     Give me an "R"! |
Ducky | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 05:09 am     Give me an "T" What does that spell? |
Mybbusername | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 05:11 am     RUPERT!!! Yeah! Go Rupert! |
Meridian | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 05:13 am     Another amazing victory for Rupert and the Drakettes! Cheers! I am so happy to see them win challenge after challenge, demonstrating a cohesive tribe. In contrast to the Morganites, the Drakettes work with each other not against each other to attain a common goal. It cannot be a coincidence that JP indicated Rupert as the "anchor" for Drake and Osten as "anchor" for Morgan. To me, Rupert truly solidifies this team with his spirit where Osten merely weighs his down with his lack of spirit. How do all of you view this comparison? |
Lorry | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 02:23 pm     Excellent food for thought Meridian! I'm not sure I agree completely with you, but you make a great point. I'm not sure if Osten is actually weighing down his team, but he sure isn't lifting them up either. Rupert on the other hand, seems to not only be lifting his team up, but doing more than just mental lifting, but physically providing food, and thus lifting up their physical being. I bet the other members of Drake are also positive people... and they seem to be able to work together, even when their personalities may be clashing... just plain good team work. Poor Lil... she was such an asset IMO... and her loss is going to not bode well for the Morganites. I love Drake.... love them... but I did hope the Morganites could win something.... anything to give them some motivation... but then again, any motivation that comes their way, they seem to fight against. |
Texasdeb | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 05:03 pm     IMO..If Rupert would have been on Morgan instead of Drake this whole lop sided thing would have been 180. Rupert is a team leader & could/would have stood out & been victorious on either team. Rupert is the most perfect survivor player to date. |
Prisonerno6 | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 07:03 pm     "If Rupert would have been on Morgan instead of Drake this whole lop sided thing would have been 180." I think it would have done a 90. Drake has had two advantages so far, only one of which is Rupert. The other was Sandra speaking Spanish which enabled them to do very well in the village. If Morgan had Rupert, that would have balanced out the initial advantage Drake had with supplies. I think Rupert would do a better job of lighting a fire under the collective Morgan butt to make the most of what they do have...and win a challenge or two. |
Chance | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 07:42 pm     I'm so glad to see all the Rupert fans. Even on the usually nasty "sucks" board Rupert rules !!!! I just love him. Has anyone managed to read anything about him re his return home after the filming of Survivor? |
Pannie | Friday, October 03, 2003 - 09:08 pm     King Rupert is magical. He's young at heart (lovin' being a pirate), sage and wise (not a cruel pirate), and lovable (likes himself, as well as others = team spirit). He's the glue that holds Drake together. Chance, I read that Rup has not been seen much. He's probably forming a pirate-themed teen mentoring program and will make a big fortune for himself. And he might be inking a movie deal with Disney. <wink> |
Catfat | Saturday, October 04, 2003 - 10:03 pm     I agree with those of you who love Rupert and think that his best chace is to align himself with the women. They will see him as the strong protector that he is. The men will see him as a competition and will try and get rid of him to advance themselves. I only hope he has his alliance firmly in place before the merge. The men will go after him like jackels after a lion. |
Enigma2 | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 12:18 am     In the murky mists of memory, I seem to recall that –as per past Survivors– we are about at the time when the teams get a shake-up by enforced exchanges of members. (My guess is that this may happen after the next person leaves. And there will be an even number of players.) (And this always seems to happen several weeks before la merge...) I can see (assuming that Morgan loses again, and eliminates Darrah) a hypothetical teaming of: Shawn, Burton, Jon, Michelle, Andrew & Tijuana vs. Rupert, Trish, Sandra, Crista, Osten & Ryan (and the whole dynamic changes...) |
Chiparock | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 09:07 am     Even TV Guide loves Rupert! The October 11-17 issue has the following in the Cheers & Jeers secton: "CHEERS to CBS' Survivor: Pearl Islands for landing one of the best reality characters to wash ashore in ages. Whether Rupert Bonham is yo-ho-hoing while swiping the other team's shoes or spearing fish with a hearty "Aargh," the grizzled dude is Pearl's perfect pirate." Shiver me timbers, Rupert! Texasdeb, TV Guide agrees with you! |
Lorry | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 09:14 am     Thanks for posting that Chiparock!!! Nice to hear such good things about my favorite Pirate!! |
Neko | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 09:47 am     He should be given a part in PotC's sequel YEAH RUPERT!!! |
Ginlei | Sunday, October 05, 2003 - 12:00 pm     Yeah Rupert!!! Best Survivor castmate soo far! |
Laura11103 | Monday, October 06, 2003 - 01:38 pm     I have to admit, I dig him. |
Jami | Wednesday, October 08, 2003 - 10:56 am     I had to reapply and get a new name and password (I had lost my info after BB) just so I could say, "I love Rupert!!!" In my opinion, so far, he is the best Survivor to date. |
Lorry | Wednesday, October 08, 2003 - 11:27 am     Glad you came to the Survivor Boards Jami... appreciate your post for Rupert. He is my favorite Drake... |
Texasdeb | Wednesday, October 08, 2003 - 04:20 pm     I like good reality TV & Rupert makes for the Best watching experience we've had since AI2 Ruben/Clay. I like characters on Survivor who seem to be seriously playing - the fact that there's not been a single episode that this guy didn't touch my funny bone even makes him more my all time fav. survivor. |
Pbnj | Thursday, October 09, 2003 - 08:21 am     Rupert embodies the spirit of 'Pearl Islands' He actually looks/sounds like he could be a native/pirate.....excellent casting! btw, did I say I love Rupert?! he's cool....fun to watch. I think what I like most about him is he isn't this cookie cutter reality contestant who is 20 something, with a hot bod and nothing notable going on upstairs......he's unique and therefore, interesting.....go RUPERT! |
Gidget | Thursday, October 09, 2003 - 09:20 am     I'm crushed. I just read his bio and discovered he is married. Boo hoo. Now that's a man. Strong yet tender. Mmmm Mmmm. That Laura is a lucky lady. |
Rupertbear | Thursday, October 09, 2003 - 04:09 pm     Wow, Gidget....what awesome taste you have in men, my dear. It's funny....Rupert isn't 'hot' in the traditional 'Chippendale' sense but this guy has the whole package. As you said...strong yet tender....caring, capable, great stamina...always important! lol ;) I agree, his wife has a gem there |
Gidget | Thursday, October 09, 2003 - 04:31 pm     I've done the looks Rupertbear. What interests me now is the substance and this guy has beautiful substance from what I have seen. Maybe someday I'll get that lucky and be that worthy. |
