I liked the end Dave spoke it well. It was definitely a well played game by Rob. The $100K Well........Jeff "Ambers' going shopping." Rob "~~~Oh yeah." LOL I sure would if I were in her place. Matt probably could have used it but his constant whinge proselytizing was not playing the game it was just whining about his lot and giving God all the responsibility to take care of him. Someone ought to tell him God helps those who help themselves. Love his hair cut. He is a handsome guy. Many of the guys were handsome or cute to some degree even Ralph 'cleaned up' had sparkling eyes and a boyish grin under that umm? facial hair. Russel and Phillip just looked icky/creepy/sneaky to me. Natalie She got her staying in the game so long money and had to do absolutely squat but use ROB to keep her there since she wasn't playing she wasn't a threat. I loved that "I used my strength of Social Skills." comment she made. Social skills to use people doesn't get you winning votes and the judges saw through her so well. Julie did drop the hammer a little hard. The kid was only doing what she knows to be in the game. Phillip????? He caught on he was only left because Rob knew no one would vote for him. He got his staying in the game so long money and I think that is the biggest reason he went along with Rob. He knew he would never win no matter how he played the game. His personality was awful even in the reunion show. Will Phillip ever answer a question without babbling nonsense? Will he ever shut up period? OMG burning those awful undies I wanted to gag. Had I been there I would have been WAY UP WIND! I don't think I have ever had the 'ewww my skin is trying to crawl away from that guy' feeling from a person on TV before. I'm still ewww when I think of him! The Former Federal Agent crap was a dominant issue in the reunion too. Proof or not still doesn't mean he is sane or in any way capable of being a stable dependable friend/person or fedderal agent. The supposed proof Begs the Question "WHY "Former" Federal Agent?" Usually death is responsible for folk leaving a federal agency's employment. A lot of benefits to keep them working until old age. Unless they are kicked out for being WACKO or they retire by age or request (usualy infractions of rules and regs constantly over and over will cause a request for leaving or firing). We still don't know what branch of the Federal Government besides FBI CIA AND other Security agencies USPS workers are Federal agents too! They have badges and take training. LOL Well fall is only a few months away. Enjoy what the summer season has to offer. LIL

Ditto Flamey. Well said. The jury voted their emotions instead of for the person who actually played the game. Outwit, Outplay and Outlast! Russell did all it all. It's supposed to be Survivor not Prom King or Queen Eric is a complete tool He is supposed to ask questions.Instead when Natatlie was too dumb to even speak up for her self he decided to take on the role of campaign manager and give a big speech n her behalf. He played the game for her. She couldn't even manage that. I liked Jaison at first but as the weeks wore on he turned out to be a big crybaby. from playing the race card at TC to his whining last night about how they OMG lied in the game. What a hypocrite! He is studying to be a lawyer so the can lie for the rest of his life to make his living. Natalie couldn't even defend herself at the final TC. I almost peed my pants when she said she chose to let Russell take the heat for her play. He chose her! She didn't choose him! He could have eliminated her at any time. I knew Natalie had won when they had her all dolled up for the reunion show. Dumb,blond,Barbie takes it all. ICK At least the other girls who won on their looks previously could speak for themselves and fought to win in front of the jury. She will be forever known as the girl who won a million for doing nothing. Russell will always be remembered as the true Sole Survivor of this game and the viewers confirmed that. As for Shambo? She may have a fugly hairdo and be a bit rough around the edges but she's a class act. She didn't whine about being voted off and she gave Russell the respect due for being the best player as he deserved.

The reason I mentioned Dan as a possible winner is because they have given him almost NO air time during the whole season. The only thing they have shown is bits and pieces of "Poor worthless gimpy Dan!" Many of them talked about keeping Na to take to the end, but did anyone mention Dan to take to the end. There is a "LOT" that goes on that we never see. They usually "blindsight" us with the editing. If the winner is obvious, they would lose viewers. From what we have seen, Dan is less "deserving" (although I think anyone who makes it to the end IS deserving) then some of the others. For that matter Jane looked very deserving, until last week! I should be very interesting! I'm preparing our pizza!

I don't know what Erika did that Xander didn't to win Survivor except that she went to Exile Island and broke an hourglass. Big whoop! They both won two challenges and survived being on the bottom, but Xander found an idol that caused him to lose his vote and he still survived. I think the rest of them may have had a personal dislike for Xander but I don't see why. And poor Xander, even at the final tribal he thought Ricard was looking out for him when he whispered "Play your idol." Ricard was irrationally upset with Xander for not playing his idol for him and assuring him a spot in the final three and therefore the million dollars. Ricard would have never played his idol for Xander. I hope Xander sees him in a true light now after watching the show.
