Russell is alpha. Jesse, as shown in his previous season, is a whiny bitch.

Jessie has a huge upper body, tiny little legs, and a head that doesn't look like it belongs on his body.

He looks like he was drawn by Rob Liefeld.

Russel is a genius

Its like watching an artist at work

He is accomplishing quite a feat here

The WORST strategy of anyone in any reality show ever.

Jesus, maybe he thinks that HOH is for the duration of season
:lol:

LOL I agree that Russell wasn't very smart at all with his strategy to alienate a member of his team. For that matter, why didn't they seek Jeff out when they strategized? On the first week, they could have certainly secured his vote.

I also don't know what Cheema was thinking, asking an athlete to play for her in the challenge. I know she thinks she's safe, but talk about exposing your alliance.

And Ronnie couldn't keep his mouth shut for a day? He seems like a good thinker, but he tipped his hat for no reason at all. He should have just waited until after the nomination.

And don't even get me started on the competition. The word that won was 7 letters?! And the runner up was 4?!

All in all, once again, these people all deserve each other. :P

On the other hand, it could work to Jeff's benefit. As long as BB keeps this "clique" thing going, if he manages to alienate his own clique while playing nice with everyone else, he's untouchable. The athletes can't nominate him, and Jessie, Natalie, and Russell will be targets whenever another clique wins HOH.

Lydia was very proud of herself in tonight's episode, and I'll give her credit she wanted to stay at any cost, and she's staying, but at a pretty big cost.

In order to stay she sold out all of her non-outcast friends/allies. That Russell-Jeff-Natalie fight actually happened after Lydia had sold him out.

And the thing is I don't think she really needed to. She already had five votes locked down (the outcasts Casey & Kevin, Jordan, Jeff, & Braden). She just needed a sixth. No matter what tonight showed Laura was just sitting there. You make her a better offer like say a one or two week immunity agreement between the outcasts & pops she jumps.

But Lydia panicked, and while she may be safe this week nobody really trusts her anymore (including Russell & Natalie).

I don't understand why people were trying to spell specific words instead of grabbing all the letters they could then spelling the longest word from those letters.

Russell is toast. Talk about exposing yourself as a loose cannon. What an idiot.

He reminds me of that small fireman from a few years back who thaught he was all that and got blind sided by Janelle and Kamel(?)

It seems like all these little musclehead tough guys suffer from a Napolean complex :D

I don't know I think Russell strategy is better then Ronnie's. What Ronnie is doing always blows up in the players faces. There will be a conversation between the 2 sides at some point that exposes Ronnie and he'll be out soon there after.

No, you're right, the brains aren't good thinkers. But I think Ronnie is the exception of the three. By the clips they show from him, I think he understands strategy better than most of the others in this game. His problem is that he's overplaying his hand too quickly. There was no reason for him to alert the other side of the athlete's plans last night. He did it to gain an early advantage and it backfired. Hopefully he'll learn from that, but it may be too late.

I thought Ronnie has watched every episode of Big Brother. He should've learned not to make the same mistakes as Brian last year. He'll soon be out.

You don't "play the game" this early. Has there ever been a winner that been a major player early on? If Ronnie were smart he'd sit back and let things happen around him before he picked a side. As a matter of fact I'm not sure any one of these people have seen the show before. Michele is flying under the radar and Breadan would have been as well if it wasn't for Lydia.

Clip of the week:

Russell boasting about spelling "shotgun" correctly and claiming he has brains. Loved it!

Dan sort of was last year, but after week 1 he basically had to stop playing for around a month b/c of all that Brian cost him.

Drew joined the four horsemen, but that house was dominated by the personality of Jase & Scott.

Lisa was the first HOH in season 3, but she never really was much of a player.

Obviously, Dick Donato would qualify, but you can't really fully count season 8 b/c of AP.

Russell suffers from a severe case of shortman's syndrome.

My dad thought Ronnie had down syndrome.

Does anyone else want to see Jessie start acting tough and see him get in a fight with Russel? Jessie would go in all confident, talking trash because he's huge but then Russel would drop him.

...and they both get kicked out?

I would love to see that.

The same reason that type of person has difficulty working on a car. Sure they could do it but they have no experience with the tools and parts. Not to mention they lack the dexterity to use the parts.

Russell is doing a great job of living up to the stereotype of MMA guy.

I don't care for Ronnie, so I loved the fact that he couldn't keep his mouth shut for a day or two.

Please let Chimydia go home so we aren't subjected to that face any longer.
