Keepittogether

I wish she was going up too. But the sad part is, Scottie would be going home no matter what. Hayeligh would probably be the only person nominated that could get Scottie to stay. I'm still dumbfounded that Fess is thinking with his little head instead of his big one. If he was keeping his wits about him, he would be putting up Sam.

It would be a good move as Sam almost always votes with L6. So it would basically be like getting out an L6 member. But I don’t think Fessy is smart enough to see the benefit of it over his dislike for Scottie. Which is so lame when you think about it, because even if Fessy wasn’t around (and had not already slept with Hayleigh), she would never go for Scottie. Now that RockStar is gone, Scottie is the one person that still can be counted on to vote with Foute.

She is a good example of someone that has let the house and the game really get to them mentally. The problem with her is that since she isn’t a fan of the game, she didn’t come into the house mentally prepared to play the game. If she had, she would have known that they always throw in 2-3 gorgeous women with hot bodies, (Angela, Rachel, Hayleigh this year), in an effort to maybe get shomances going and also for eye candy for the viewers. They also throw in some attractive male beefcake, (Winston, and Brett), an angry black woman (Bayleigh), and older person (Steve), etc. It’s a formula to try and garner the most viewers. People playing the game hard core also, lie and cheat. She wasn’t prepared for all the shenanigans and it shows. Making dinner and doing laundry isn’t a formula for winning.

They think everyone else is as dumb as they are. If they both don’t realize who is not voting with their side by now, I’m sure they don’t realize that people know they’re together. I still like both of them, but they’re not the brightest.

I totally agree. It would be epic if JC and Sam were to flip on L6, (basically Tyler). I would literally do a little dance around my living room with a cocktail!

Agreed. I think Scottie may be more likeable to use viewers at home. However, inside of the house, so much shade has been thrown at Scottie and so many lies have been told about him, Kaycee probably has a better reputation and is seen as more trustworthy by the people she is aligned with.

I think Scottie, JC and Sam have the best chance at this point of outlasting many of the others. They are doing a good job of floating in the middle and both sides think if they needed them, they could pull them too their side. I know that traditionally people tend to hate floaters and don't think they really play the game. However, it can be even harder to play in the middle than just stick to an alliance that someone may have made in the first couple of days in the game. For example, I think Scottie is playing a harder game than Kaycee. Who is more likeable? Kaycee of course. But that doesn't mean that Scottie isn't giving it all he's got. Just sayin.'

I wouldn't describe Angela in any way as a "poor girl." Literally or figuratively. She is not innocent and has been down right nasty at times. Although she isn't exactly prancing around as the princess that RS claims her to be, she seems pretty entitled. Other than her HOH, she hasn't really done much except keep to her alliance and ride Tyler's coat tails. She has an above the fray attitude, that i'm sure with her amazing body and pretty face are what is driving the other girls crazy. IMHO she is by no means though, a poor girl that deserves our sympathy. Anything but.

I agree, it would be a smart move and something he could point to down the road, (if Kaycee was actually voted out) as a big move. I just don't see him doing this though. He has expressed his annoyance and dislike for Rockstar many times. And beyond that, I do think he has a LBGT bond with Kaycee. It would be pretty smart if he did this though since no one on the L6 alliance would suspect him. Now would be the time to do it too, since there are still enough people in the hours to blame the vote on and get away with it.

Yeah, it's odd how they haven't figured out by now who is not voting with them. JC obviously isn't and Tyler isn't. And these are two people they see as allies. It seems like Sam sort of flip flops depending on which way the wind is blowing. I've been trying to give Foute, (which is the stupidest alliance name in the history of BB), the benefit of the doubt. But how could they seriously think they have the votes to keep RS? The first step is admitting they have a problem. Maybe if they did, they could come up with some real solutions. Like an actual strategy instead of sitting around complaining and groveling to Tyler. Even if it's just swaying Sam to their side by filling her head with a bunch of lies - like that Angela has been saying how fat she is or something, (knowing how much this would bother Sam because she is to insecure about her body image right now). For heaven sakes, just do something, anything involving game play!!!

The game is finally getting going!!!

Had a feeling all along that she was just playing under the radar until she was forced to step it up. Rock on Kaycee!!!

I have always thought Sam had a good heart and is a genuine person. Thats doesn't mean she is well suited for the game though. In my opinion, a variety of different types of people, is what makes the game interesting. The more varied the houseguests the more interesting the game. Let there be various, ages, races, genders, sexual orientations, religions - BB fans that have watched every season and those that have never even watched an episode. To have a season where everyone is playing the game hard core and know what they are in for, let them throw in an All-Star season every now and again. The fun part of watching a blind side, is when the person getting blind sided is clueless and has no idea that it's coming. That's why you need some people that aren't serious BB fans and don't know as much about the game, because they don't know what to anticipate. Personally, I like that Sam is a bit clueless when it comes to game play. And honestly you never know. This could be a big ole' facade. She could be trying to make the other players think she doesn't know what is going on and is really daft, so she is not seen as a threat to get further in the game. Even if she is not doing it on purpose, she still has a good chance of people taking her along for that very reason.

Thanks for the low down. It's time for her to go. Truly someone that has an inflated sense of self and doesn't really "get it." She is also the kind of person that will get home, see the footage of herself and not see any of her behavior as negative.

I think Sam may make it farther than that. Everyone on both sides of the house likes her. She is not really a physical or mental threat. She makes being in the house more pleasant, ie; all of the cooking, cleaning and laundry. She comforts everyone when they are down, on both sides of the house. And finally, she is loyal. If Sam likes you and decides that you are a "good person" she can be easily manipulated. If Tyler as a lot of people are predicting - makes it far in the game, it wouldn't surprise me if he takes her all the way with him. She is not a threat to his game (like Brett or Scottie potentially) and in the end he would most likely win, just because he has (and probably will) make more game moves.

What happened? I don't have the feeds. Sounds like Bayleigh went off on Tyler or something?

Tyler is good, but I wouldn't count out Sam, Scottie, JC or even Hayleigh who aren't anyone's targets right now. They can keep playing in the middle and wait for some of the bigger targets to get voted out.

I like the hacker twist. It may be the only thing that can equalize the power in the house. And I say that as someone that doesn't really like one particular side of the house over the other. I prefer certain players, but not a specific side. And in my opinion, the game isn't really as fun to watch if one side completely dominates the other. Or if one person completely dominates the game and everyone else just does their bidding and everyone defers to them each week. While I enjoyed how crafty Derricks game play was for example, the overall game that season was kind of boring. One of the most fun seasons to watch, (to me), was when Janelle kept coming back and winning HOH's after everyone counted her out. So, personally I'm all for a hack that will help to keep all the houseguests guessing and keep the power bouncing back and forth from side to side. For all the BB purists out there, (which I consider myself to be ), the game will never go back to how it used to be in it's original simplistic format. The only way they can continue to get viewers - especially in the golden 18-35 age range - it to keep it technologically savvy and keep us guessing.

Agreed. And let’s be clear, the best players are often not necessarily nice to the people they are in the house with. They lie, manipulate, withhold information and do whatever it takes to get themselves and usually their final two alliance partner further in the game. I will say though with all of the new twists, it makes it more complicated to think three steps ahead in the game as has been the case in years past. Just getting yourself and your alliance past the veto, no longer cuts it with the power apps and hacker twist.

If Bayleigh had shut up about her power and not told Rachel, everyone wouldn’t know about it and she probably wouldn’t about to be backdoored. Dumb move. I don’t think even the people in L6 know about Tyler’s power app. And it’s that kind of good judgement that’s going to take him far in the game.

Really????? Interesting! It would make sense that she would put up Tyler - she (rightly) doesn’t trust him. It sounds like Angela is going to take Tyler down and backdoor Bayleigh, which is a good move. I think because of her power that everyone is afraid of, Bayleigh will probably go home over Rockstar.

Wow, Tyler is on the block! Whoever has the hacker power and did this, it’s a smart move, regardless of their motivation. Tyler is probably the strongest player in the house at the moment, given his allies and how much people will simply do what he says. The hacker may be Scottie, Bayleigh or Fessy? Who knows. But so far I’m liking the hacker twist. It’s at least keeping things interesting.

The thing is though, neither Winston or Rachel will make it to jury. Only the people currently in the house now will become jury members. So, as long as he doesn't screw any of the current L6 players he probably has a decent shot. Yes, he's playing dirty. But really he's not lying any more than Tyler is. Tyler is just more personable and less arrogant (at least in front of people). I don't really care for him, but you have to give Brett props. He's done what he's needed to do to stay in the house. And that's a big feat in and of itself. But when you add in the fact that he stayed in the house against his best friend, and also a co alliance member, he's doing pretty well at playing the game.

For the first time all season, I watched BBAD last night when I couldn't sleep. I felt bad for the way Bayleigh was treating Rockstar in their one on one in the room. Who does she think she is? Not only that, but at one point Bayleigh was clearly talking to her with her voiced raised and told Rockstar to stop yelling and lower her voice. In my opinion she was bullying her. Bayleigh knows/knew that she can get away with speaking to Rockstar like that, so she does it. She would NEVER speak that way and be so indignant with some of the other houseguests. She knows that Rockstar will just basically take it from her. I have never been of fan of Rockstar, nor have I disliked her the way so may have. However, after seeing the way she was treated by Bayleigh last night, I hope she can summon some courage, stop all the crying and figure out a way to save herself. Bayleigh disgusts me. She needs to go and with a quickness. Unfortunately, because of her power everyone is afraid to go after her.

I still love this girl. And I think she is probably holding back on challenges to stay under the radar. In a way she’s playing a better game than Tyler, because she’s no ones target. Go Kaycee go!!!
