I liked Boston Rob too. He has played a more mature game this time. I think Russell is a good player, but not the best of all time. He's a troll. He has had an advantage in that he has been able to see how the other players played in their seasons, but the other players did not see how he played in his season. Although I think Russell would be deserving of a win, I don't want him to win. His social game isn't good. That is why the other girl won last season. I had read a spoiler last week that someone has leaked the correct boot order for all of the players so far. Boston Rob was the predicted boot for this week. I believe the same person also said that Parvarti is good friends with someone who works for the show and may have had information about Russell that the other players do not have. As goofy as Coach is, I sort of like him this season.

I'm always a day late in watching most things, mainly because I don't want things to go the way I'm afraid they are going to go. That made perfect sense in my head!! Omg, when Malcolm walked out, oh my that hair, drool, lol. Of course I was sad to see Reynolds go but would have been totally shocked if he had stayed. I really thought Eric might throw a kink in the plan to get rid of Andrea. Loved that she got blindsided holding the immunity idol! I couldn't believe Dawn was all for getting rid of Brenda ( I would be horrible at this game) but crap, Brenda helped her find her dang teeth, that should keep you in a little longer!! Well Malcolm should have been kept in longer too, just for getting rid of Philip,lol! And bless Eric's heart, is he really smarter than he appears to me( lol, that's saying a whole lot), why hand over the idol?? I like Brenda ( except when she found Dawn's teeth,lol, not really) but I was just wanting someone to go home for whatever reason, before Malcolm. I'm not a Cochran fan at all, but he's had some funny comments this season. I'd quote but I never remember anything the right way, the peanut butter licking,lol. Right now, I'm still rooting for the underdog, Eddie, but like Brenda and Eric, too. I think Brenda is the strongest player. I just wish I remembered her season. I googled her once but only saw the names of her tribe members and didn't remember any of them,lol. I'll have to go look again. Flamey, what's wrong with Brenda's leg? Did anyone watch next week's preview? What does it look like is going to happen?

If anyone ever reads the recap that sushipup always links to, the guy is a great writer. Very entertaining. He explained it perfectly. You can't let emotions in or you will lose. Brenda cut her own throat when she won the family love reward challenge. It's a two sided sword. If you win and keep it, everyone hates you for getting the reward. If you win and give it to everyone else, you are a target because you're so nice. I would be willing to bet that if Brenda had kept the reward for herself and Dawn, she would not have gone home that night. It would have been Eddie. It's a fine line. Brenda was very sweet and nice this time around, and that's what did her in. I don't want crybaby or facelift to win. But I really don't want Eddie to win either. He has been cocky and so full of himself, judgmental about the "geeks" and not so beautiful people, ugh, I don't want him to win. Cochran is my absolute first vote. Erik second.

Bob's my man. I find Susie and Matty likeable. Ken and Sugar are last. All are deserving because they have all changed the game in one way or another.
