Russell is sort of like the new Richard Hatch. I can't stand him as a person, but I have to respect how well he's playing this game. I'm still looking forward to when he's (hopefully) booted off.
The old purple tribe was really onto something when Monica brought up Russell and the immunity idol, but I don't see what would have hurt them by assuming he found it again,
especially on the heels of receiving a clue knowing he had plenty of time to hunt for another one AND that he'd previously found one without any clues at all. That was possibly the biggest dumbass move thus far this season in a season riddled with dumbass moves. There was no way they could split their votes and still have enough to beat a united Foa Foa. Since they don't trust Shambo, all they had to do was agree on targeting some other Foa Foa member, keep Shambo out of the loop, and wait to see if Russell plays the idol. It's not as if this didn't
just happen already. It would have been a win-win for them even if Russell didn't play the idol because they still would have guaranteed another Foa Foa loss.
By the way, Dave looks more like Kevin Spacey than I do. He also looks more like a douchey tool than I do. I'll take Shambo over him any day. Once Russell is gone, I would LOVE to see Kevin Spacey voted off next.
adamgreer - Shambo is still around because NOBODY really perceives her as a threat. She could make it all the way to the end and she would have about 1% chance of winning. The best she'll do in this game is take home $100K. I think pretty much everyone at this point would love to be sitting next to her in the final. The only smart move she has made is aligning herself with Russell and making nice-nice with Foa Foa. But I don't think anyone is going to give her a million bucks for it unless she can somehow kick everyone's ass as a brilliant mastermind and superhero if Russell gets voted out. But stranger things have happened on this show.
This season is ok, but still not one of my favorites. I haven't seen anything that compares to Sugar, Cirie (x2), Stephenie (x2) or the iconic first season. But there has certainly been worse.
Sugar + Cookie - Randy = Awesomeness
By the way, did you know there was a guy named "Brett" on the show? Huh.
