Hey, some people are more competitive than others.

It's like, if I go to the local gym and play ball with my friends, and one of them repeatedly screws up, and then after the game, when everyone is talking about the game, that same friend refuses to accept any blame (instead blames other teammates) for his mistakes, then I'd still be upset. Now, imagine the game was for $1,000,000, I'd be seriously pissed. For days. To make it an even better analogy, imagine that, that same friend was the captain of the team, and even though I scored a good chunk of the points and played lock-down defense, he chose to kick me off the team, halfway through.

I don't think him being upset makes him a twit. He even helped make brownies for Laura when she got to Ponderosa. It's just when they were discussing the game, he was still bothered by it. However, it does make Laura self-righteous, as she has been. (However, I don't think she's every wronged Shambo directly, short of just being who she is.)

Cockiness is always a down fall on Survivor. Galu got cocky and voted off one of their own prematurely.

I'm guessing Russell will not make it to the F2/F3 for the same reason.
Cocky = GONE.

Once they get down to 5, the 3 besides Shambo and Russell would be foolish not to align themselves to get Russell out. But he could very well still have that idol then (or hell, find another one).

Even if Russell doesn't win the million he should be a shoo in for the $50k (fan voting) if they still have it!

I think it was $100K when James won the fan vote a few seasons ago.

Erik's big mistake was seriously underestimating the stupidity of Laura and her moronic minions. So did he get what he deserved? I guess you could say that. You give a chimp a gun and the chimp shoots you, don't get mad at the chimp.

Hmm, I think a better analogy would be if you were thrown in a cage that had a chip with a gun. He didn't exactly choose his teammates. Hahaha...and I don't know how possible it was to anticipate a move that they discussed in "30 seconds".
