The only thing I am waiting on now is for CBS to spill th beans about Eric. I could care less about any thing else.

Zach finally grew a pair! :D

He put up the Donatos and they were (not surprisingly) complete jerks about it - he could barely even tell them "why" he was putting them up during the nomination ceremony, because they both kept interrupting him to tell him that they were going to win the POV.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

I think CBS is making a mistake not showing the sequester house. Thats a big part of the game, (at least for the viewers) each houseguest bringing in a tape of the HOH/POV, and seeing their reactions.

You would think in 8 years of BB someone would just accept their fate. D&D getting mad that Zach flipped on them but they just flipped on their alliance the day before.

Zach finally grew a pair! :D
One round too late. He had a lock on getting rid of Danielle when he won POV. Now it is 50/50 at best that one of the Donato's goes home this time.

D & D are up! They got too cocky. Zach gave it to them good. Maybe you can catch it on Innertube (http://www.cbs.com/innertube/).

I've been a big fan of the Donato's since day 1. But man what a cry baby Daniele is! Suck it up! It's a game! Isn't that what you've been telling everyone you've "played"?!

If the POV goes to Danilele, Jameka is a goner! GO ZACH!

I can't believe how arrogant Danielle was toward Zach...and then she calls him cocky??? And neither Dick nor Danielle seemed to comprehend Zach's obvious logic that if Zach and D&D are in the final 3, there is ZERO chance that Dick or Danielle will take Zach to the final 3 over their family member. I guess D&D are mad that pulled that knife out of Eric's back and used it on them. Live by the knife, die by the knife.

I also like the way Zach hit the nail on the head telling Danielle about how Dick played the game. What is she thinking saying Dick has played the best game...making ememies of the jury is not smart.

I take it we will see a live PoV comp and ceremony then the vote on Tue?

Zach know what he's talking about. If it came down to him and Jamika, at least he would walk out with 50k in second place. If he kept the D's in he would walk out third with nothing.

POV has already happened they will show that Tuesday. Then they will do live veto meeting and vote. Followed by HoH competition which is always 3 parts with one endurance leg. Thursday will be elimination and jury vote.

Zach is allowed to compete in the final HOH, right?

Wow. Go Zack! I have been rooting for D&D but if Zack really has been laying low as part of his strategy and is now turning it up to win, then I say go Zack. If he or Jameka can win POV they will probably kick out Danielle and it will be Dick, Jameka and Zack in the final "endurance challenge". Zack will probably win that, and it will be Zack against Jameka in the final two and Zack wins.

If Dick or Danielle wins the POV then I have no idea what will happen after the way Danielle threw her Dad under the bus. telling Zack that her Dad was the bigger threat. She THEN intimated that she may not have been planning to take her Dad to the final two when Zack said "zero percent chance they wouldn't take each other to the final two" and she raised her eyebrows and said "oh yeah, you think so?" or something like that. Kind of sounds like maybe she wasn't planning on bringing Dick along for the ride. I wouldn't put it past Danielle to NOT take Dick with her to the final two. So it's anyone's guess what may happen if she wins POV. :p

Wow, I actually gained some respect for Zak! I am glad he stood up to them even though I hope D/D win it all.

Jameka re-instilled his belief in God? Wow, who knew.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't tonight's nomination ceremony totally meaningless?

If Zach wins POV, he can veto either D&D and put up Jameka, which would be the same as just nominatin Jameka and whomever. If anybody else wins, the other two end up on the block. So really, all HoH does this week is make Zach immune from eviction, and then the winner of POV gets to decide who is on the block.
Thank you!!!! It was painful to watch all the discussion, since the nomination ceremony meant nothing, and the veto holder really holds the power this week. I guess CBS had to make it seem like the comp actually meant something (other than guaranteeing the winner a spot in the final 3).

This is how the conversation in the HoH room should have gone:

Dani: Congrats on the HoH win. Are you going to put me and my dad up?
Zach: I don't know. It's such a hard decision, blah, blah.
Dani: You do realize that regardless of who you put up, the veto holder decides who goes home, right?
Zach: (Blank stare on his face)
Dani: Ya...the emperor has no clothes!!
Zach: Les Mooves is naked?? Does Chenbot know?

I wonder if the producers gave them instructions about how to act, or if they were really that clueless. Dick seemed to get it right at the end of the show.

Well dammt, what happened?

usually the 1st poster in a thread already knows that ;)

at least z-man didnt have as shaky a voice as ole eric. 2pts for him. I would not want to be a the father daughter after party as they no doubt will just turn on each other and go back to their ways.

Zach is still an idiot, in my book, for not getting rid of one of the Ds last week when it was a lock. I wanted him to lose this week and get evicted just because of that blunder. And does CBS expect any interest in a Donatos final two? Jameeka has also done absolutely nothing in this entire game, yet she thinks she's still a solid competitor? This has to be one of the lamest final fours in BB history.

Lopey

09-10-2007, 08:54 AM

I actually grew some respect for Zach, and I now want him to win. If he has been throw the comps until now, and the way he handled Dani and Dick, not giving in and telling them straight was excellent. How can Dani and Dick be pissed at Zach... weren't Dani and Dick just talking at the beginning of the show about having to get rid of Zach. If Zach hadn't won HOH, they would have been breaking their deal with Zach.. just because Zach beat them to it they get pissed. of course if Dani or Dick win the POV, then the entire thing is for nothing. The only hope is for Zach to win POV, I think Jameka is useless.

Can we have a 4 person eviction and just donate the money to some charity? :)

I'm wondering if America will get to cast Eric's vote for the winner. That could prove interesting.

I thought the final show was on the 18th, not the 13th. Am I wrong?

TriBruin

09-10-2007, 09:26 AM

I have a little more respect for Zach. He seems to have finally woke up and started playing the game, but just a day late. He knew that he had to get ride of a Danato and had the chance to get rid of Daniele. He even admitted that was the right move! Out of the four, he is the one I want to see win, for lack of a better player in the house.

Could D&D be anymore self-centered and cocky? Apparently to Dick, the only way to play BB8 is to make sure he or Daniele wins the game. You are not allowed to play for yourself. I am sure Eric and Jessica are very happy that D/D stick by their alliances. :rolleyes: Can I say again how much I hate them?

Right now, I would love to see either one of them eliminated in the next round. But even if both make it to the final 3, there is no lock that Zach won't win the final HOH. Dick seem to think it is a forgone conclusion, but Zach has one two of the last three HOHs and the latest Veto. Maybe he was throwing earlier challenges?

mcb08

09-10-2007, 09:30 AM

I think that Dick's reasoning is that either he or Dani will beat Zach in the final 2.

newsposter

I'm amazed in any of these reality things how people diss others for doing EXACTLY what they are doing. I mean in private behind closed doors they genuinely thought that zack should keep the deal when they were talking about screwing him too. In pubic fine, call him on it as a game play move, but in private, to be shocked and talking down about someone about doing what you are gonna do, and MUST do to win the game, disgusts me.

So really, all HoH does this week is make Zach immune from eviction, and then the winner of POV gets to decide who is on the block.

Amen....HoH really meant nothing more than ensuring you are safe, this week. The real power comes to the person who wins PoV. Zach could have just picked 2 names out of a hat and had the same outcome (which maybe he should have done).

Regarding Eric and Americas Choice. I don't think this is a spoiler so I'm going to post it:

From CBS.com:
America's Player is not done yet! He has one more task to accomplish. On finale night Eric will need to cast your vote for winner, America. More details to come.

So it looks like we finally will get a vote for the final.

Thank you!!!! It was painful to watch all the discussion, since the nomination ceremony meant nothing, and the veto holder really holds the power this week. I guess CBS had to make it seem like the comp actually meant something (other than guaranteeing the winner a spot in the final 3).

Now that I think about it, Zach was stupid to nominate Dick and Danielle. Since the power is in the hands of the veto winner this week, he could have gotten the same result by nominating one of them and Jameka, and had only a 25% chance of betraying his alliance with D&D. The way it stands now, no matter who goes home, Zach made two emenies (D&D). Instead if he nominated Danielle and Jameka, here would be the four possible outcomes:

1. Jameka wins PoV and saves herself, Dick has to take her place, then Jameka votes one of them out...Zach's hands are clean.
2. Dick wins PoV and doesn't use it, Jameka goes home...Zach's hands are clean.
3. Danielle wins PoV, doesn't use it, Jameka goes home...Zach's hands are clean.
4. Zach wins PoV and has to get his hands dirty to back-door Dick, and one of them goes home.

Don't these people think?

True, but does it really matter when they get down to the final 3 if D&D are friends or emenies or not? Either way, if he doesn't when POV, he is going home.

No it doesn't matter when it comes down to the final 3, but it might matter to Zach if he's in the final two and Dick and/or Danielle are sitting on the jury.

Only if Jameka makes it to the final 2 against Zach, and I think that is highly unlikely.

Daniele's behavior of late is very typical of her age group. When things are going her way, she can barely contain her excitement, but when things take a turn she doesn't like, everyone else is "stupid" or "arrogant" or "It 'sucks!'"

Funny how her basic argument to Zach is, "Well - you can't win so you should help me win." And when he doesn't comply, she says, "Who does he think he is? Does he really think he can win this game?"

Anyway - at least Zach finally strapped on a pair and put up D&D, although he should have done that in the first place when he won HoH. Especially since he'd spent the entire prior week convincing Jessica how powerful an alliance D&D were and how at least one of them needed to go.

Excellent points, Zach! Then he wins HoH and does a complete 180... Oh well. I'll keep watching b/c I've committed to it most of the summer, but I couldn't care less who wins at this point.

Given the choices of Zach or Dick the decision is clear...

In regard to the cast sellection for season 8, this has been one of the worst group that BB has had to offer... What were they thinking?

At least BB7 was interesting, if nothing else
