Rob's mighty cocky as he talks about how he is in charge of who stays and who goes... but, IS he playing smart, or will someone knock him off his throne??? What could be his downfall???

Lorry, I'm hoping it will be his cocky attitude and the sooner the better. I didn't like him the first time around and I like him even less now. I don't know what it is about this guy that gives me such a visceral reaction to him. I'm in deep dislike with him. I'll be singing my own little tune when they boot him..... Ding dong the **** is gone.......

I agree Zules... I can't seem to warm up to Rob either. I admit he's smart, but how smart??? If Amber wins I will be so upset. She has had her free ride before and doesn't deserve another... IMO...lol PS: Good to see your posts.

Rob M. will only have power if others are willing to give it to him. I would love to see him "humbled" at some point but probably won't happen. He has an attitude and persona that defies self-examination and empathy and likeability. Oh well. Will be interesting to see if anyone can "catch" him at his own game and boot him.

I think that Rob M would be perfect to go up against for the million. His cocky attitude would cost him the votes for the million.

Rob is great for humor. I think he would drive me up a wall if I was playing with him but watching is another thing all together. It will be fun to see him brought down.

It would definitely depend on the jury he was facing and who he was up against in the F2. I can see his arrogance possibly costing him votes, but then he could also earn votes for playing hard, especially if he is up against a coattail rider. It is ALL in the jury and what their perception is of how he got there.

But of course he will! I'm rooting for him in Adven's game so how could he not??? Seriously, that was purely a hypothetical situation I put forth. Plus, he is a hottie.

hermi, you think rob m is a hottie, or adven? we are seeing a better rob this time around, but i am still having trouble shaking the earlier rob from my mind. i think he is still cocky, but he does work hard. i just don't like his 'i'm in charge attitude', but then a lot of them are different this time around. what happened to the rupert of old? and some people say they like jerri now! oh my heck!!!

hey tabbyking!! how are ya? rob is totally a hottie! check out my new profile picture i created for adven's game! yeah, rob is VERY cocky! i don't much like that either, but what saves him for me, is that he totally recognizes it in himself. remember at the TC when jeff asked him what would get him voted off? he laughed and said his attitude or his mouth. that's part of why i was able to stand jon dalton last season. nothing drives me crazier than people who will not admit their own faults. both jon and rob totally 'fess up to who they are, i think. and they both work/worked hard. oh, and adven is a hottie, too. he would get my vote for studliest if i was voting. no offense to colossus and the sheer curtain, but any man that makes me laugh gets major sexy points and adven always makes me laugh. i hope adven doesn't see this, though, because he already has a large enough harem.

I'm not a big fan of Rob, but compared to the others he is a hottie. I'm totally liking the way he's playing the game. He's working his butt off. Gotta respect that.

Boston Rob is too arrogant for words. In regards to the original question of this thread -- I am hoping that it is that which eventually leads to his downfall... The only consolation I have is that even if Rob M. makes it to the final two, I don't really see him winning. Not enough people like him. I just don't understand why Rupert, Jenna and Amber have aligned with him... Didn't they see him on his last show? He is easily my most disliked All-Star! By far! Even more than Rupert and Jenna Morasca!

I have to agree with Padivius regarding Boston Rob is too arrogant for words. He may look like a hottie, but soon as he opens his mouth, his true self is revealed. I think Amber is a follower and I'm not sure that Rupert really trusts Rob.

I wonder if the Robfather is playing to the cameras? He seems to be saying cocky arrogant things and yet the expression on his face is neutral. ** If Rob is handling his facial expressions and words well when he is with his tribemates I would say he is going to go FAR! ** I was disappointed at his starting the Ding Dong the witch is Gone song.....but he wasnt very enthusiastic and frankly, he may have done it as comic relief as Tom was expecting some camera time. Even Rupert did his HAW HAW HAW when that scene was going down. (Bet Sue will be having 'a little talk' with these guys after the show LOL) :-)

" just don't understand why Rupert, Jenna and Amber have aligned with him... Didn't they see him on his last show? " I wondered about this too Padivius, but think about it----what choice did they have---someone comes to you and wants an alliance, I don't think you say no----you just go along with it until you figure out what you really want to do. Someone's word doesn't necessarily mean much in this game.

I find Boston Rob a total babe as well. I also liked Johnny FairPlay from last season. I rather see a confident individual who "works" to win than a likeable person who gets a free pass (sorry Ethan fans). I really like Lex as well. But don't you think he needs more tattoos??? I am really rooting for Boston Rob because he is a hard worker and he adds humour to the game. As well I don't find he any more arrogant than the other players such as Rupert and Colby. Funny how people can watch the same show and get different perspectives.

Yes Sasha, it would be better if Lex added a few more tattoos! LOL! (I have nothing against tattoos, nor do I love tattoos.) Rob is entertaining to watch. I think he is very cocky and full of himself, but in such a different way than Johnny Fairplay. Fairplay was just ... yuck! I couldn't stand him. He just didn't seem like a decent person. Rob, otoh, does show some decency. His words when Jenna was leaving and also when Sue was leaving showed that, imo. Didn't Rob just lay around and do nothing on his last Survivor show?

So true, Sasha, about we're all watching the same thing and yet see it from different point of views. I agree that Colby is as arrogant as Rob, especially after his talk with ShiAnn. With Rupert, it's more a matter of not being able to believe that others can't build a fire or fish or what not and so he sees them as lazy to some extent. But what grates on me about Rob is his insistence that he is superior in intellect to everyone else and therefore he is controlling them. Yuck ~ Richard use to make the same announcement and look where it got him this time. I do think Rob is sitting pretty for the moment but will be gone as soon as there is a merger, if there is one, because of his strength and current popularity.

They are letting Rob lead them and continue to help win rewards and immunity. He has proven strong in both areas and he's worked hard to make it happen, too. He provided a very good shelter to keep them warm and dry and has provided food via rewards. When the final merge happens, and it becomes an individual game, 'then' he will become a threat, but in the meantime if I were there, I would want Rob around, and I would enter into an alliance with him to get further in the game. The only person he's stabbed in the back was Rob C., by offering him his hand in alliance and giving back to Rob C. his own medicine. The all-stars all want to punish their co-players by giving what they gave in past seasons.
