Seriously people, it's only a game. Can we stop with the tears? Why Bill Simmons and his Grantland.com friends didn't include this show in their Reality TV Fantasy League is beyond me. There were hundreds of crying points to be had in this episode. The biggest mistake people make playing Big Brother is getting to emotional. It's the reason people like Evel Dick are so good. Not only is he able to avoid getting emotionally wrapped up in the house drama, but he is able to drive others off the deep end. The minute you begin to cry or cry vengeance on others the game is beating you. You have to keep a level head if you want to take home the half million. It surprised me that Jordan started to let the game get to her. She was above things during her season. Wither due to stupidity and naivety or just an ability to remove herself from the bullshit, I don't remember her shedding tears and crying about injustice. I hope it doesn't lead to her downfall.
Kalia, tears aside, proved herself a poor player this week. She can claim all she wants that she's not Daniele's puppet, but she just did Daniele's dirty work. There was no reason to put Jeff on the block, you can't make two people go home, and by doing so made herself a huge target. Daniele, on the other hand, is now sitting pretty. Either Rachel or Jeff will be going home and there will be no blood on her hands at all. I don't understand why people don't see Porsche as Rachel's lapdog? The obvious nominations seemed to be Rachel and Porsche. You send a message to Porsche and get to send Rachel home. Who cares if she gets mad? She hasn't done anything in the game or shown that she's capable of doing anything. You have to know at this point that she's in bed with Rachel, so you'd also be taken away a vote for Rachel. I understand it's easier seeing things on TV, but I find it hard to believe that the house guests don't realize that Porsche and Rachel are working together.
Speaking of things being easier to see on TV, maybe Shelly is playing a better game then I give her credit for. Nobody seems to realize that she is playing all sides of the house. Daniele, and especially Kalia, don't seem to have a clue that Shelly can't be trusted as far as you can throw her. Her social game must be a lot better then it appears on TV. I've gotten a sleazy shady vibe from her right from the beginning, but nobody in the house has picked that up. Everyone from Cassie to Dom to Kalia totally has believed that she is with them. Even Rachel hasn't identified her as a "super floater" and she throws that insult around as often as she has ineffective plastic surgery.
Here's this weeks rankings. These don't really mean much though because "everything will change" depending on who comes back in the house...
9) Rachel - God, I hope she goes home this week and doesn't come back. After losing Brendon she has no one except Porsche on her side, so that means she has no one. Am I a bad person that I got more enjoyment out of her crying after Brendon getting kicked out and her losing the HOH competition then anything else that has happened this year?
8) Porsche - I'm not sure how she keeps flying under the radar, but it has to come to an end soon. She can't win anything, she plays Rachel's lap dog, she doesn't stand a chance of winning.
7) Lawon - Speaking of flying under the radar and being useless in competitions. But the only one who seems to be against him in the house seems to be the camera that he's always yelling at. Seriously, Lawon, the camera didn't do anything to you, speak normal. He'll stay around a little longer because people can use his vote and he's no threat, but eventually he's going home.
6) Kalia - Man, did she ever put a target on her own back. The only thing she has going for her at the moment is that Daniele needs her around. If Dom should get back in the house her stock will rise a little, but she pretty much sealed that she won't win this week.
5) Adam - Another floater who is no treat to the big guns, but he has done a better job of playing both sides then anyone lower on this list.
4) Jeff - He's just too much of a threat. And with Brendon gone and Rachel probably next he doesn't have much support in the house. There is always the threat of him pulling off a huge win streak but it's not looking good for him right now.
3) Daniele - Things are looking pretty bright after what was certain demise a few weeks ago. And thanks to Kalia's stupid nominations the target will be off her back for at least another week. If Dom or Cassie get back in the house things will be looking even better for her. Never count out the spawn of Evel Dick.
2) Shelly - She seems to be playing the perfect social game at the moment. If she can keep playing both sides as well as she has, she stand a great chance of winning. I also have a strange feeling that she is laying low in competitions as well. I keep waiting for her to go on a huge win streak. Of course, her strategy has a way of blowing up in one's face, so this could change at any moment.
