Hi Scott,
What a crazy last half this season of Big Brother has been. I was really curious what your thoughts were regarding the latest back stab by Dan and his chances of winning. Will a shell shocked Shane enter the jury house and only stir up the bitterness towards Dan? I am a huge fan of Dan but I'm worried now that he cannot beat either Danielle or Ian. Danielle looks to have Frank, Shane, and Jenn locked up as votes and that leaves Britney, Ashley, Ian, and Joe where she'd only need one of those. Dan vs Ian it looks like Ian would have Britney (Coach loyalty?) Frank, Ashley, Shane and possibly a bitter Danielle -- Could Danielle even vote for Dan after he lied to her 100 times and then got her voted out? With the up coming HOH, it almost feels like Dan has to lose on purpose so he won't have to cast the final vote and lose a jury vote. I think ultimately, Dan has no shot vs Ian, and can only barely beat Danielle depending on bitterness of the jury - Thoughts?

I think Dan would destroy Danielle in a jury vote, like not even close. Everyone knows she's his puppet at this point. I think Ian definitely beats Dan, though, although even if Dan only gets second he's still getting the $25000 from the online poll so he'll make out well either way. And yeah, Danielle would still vote for Dan, because he's probably already used the DAN MIST on her and convinced her that voting out Shane was for her benefit. Honestly I'm fine with any of the three winning it, they all deserve to be there and they all played a great social game. Ian will be back for the inevitable All Stars 2 next year even if he doesn't win this, and I'm sure Frank will too if WWE doesn't sign him to a developmental deal.
And not to spoil anything, but it doesn't appear like Dan's in the comp throwing mood now.
Keith - Reality TV has changed, and with the exception of Russell on Survivor who was absolutely devious, players are smarter and wiser and are no longer voting based on emotions like in the early days. Almost everyone is a student of the game at this point and they're truly recognizing the best games played. I think if Dan makes the finals, he wins. However, what I don't like is that 2 wins gives him G.O.A.T status over Will Kirby.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with this at all, Survivor is full of idiots playing emotionally every season, (Brandon Hantz anyone) and I think juries may have gotten WORSE, had Richard been facing a Jury as stupid as the ones Russel faced he never would have won (something the IRS would be grateful for)
ReplyDeleteScott is giving Dan way too much credit here, he doesn't have a jury vote, I really think it's inconceivably impossible for Dan to win. Besides, he played a pretty shitty game and plus he had a bunch of fuckwits playing with him that weren't too hard to mist.
ReplyDeleteThat little Jury House segment told a lot.....
