I will just come out and say that if you check the posts of NoDoubt and Sc-Steeler, they seem to want to stir people up. All of this crap about sexual harrassment and going over the line is just stupid. If it was a workplace? Yes, then this behavior would be not tolerated or accepted, but as much as people wanna believe or convince themselves that BB is a workplace, it is not. Also, sexual harrassment in the workplace, requires the person who was offended to come forward and make the complaint. None of the women have. And even if they did, they would have a hard time proving that Mike was the person they were afraid of, as long as Howie is in the house. And Beau would now have to be considered a "sexual harrasser" after tonights show. But you don;t see No Doubt or sc-Steeler going after anyone except Michael. All of these women on the show say that they are strong and independent, but they can't tell Michael to stop? Well, it would be hard for them to do that if they continue to let Howie disparage them, but for some reason, even though Howie does the most disgusting things, that is fine? It is easy to see, with or without feeds if you are reading this board that the main disgusting stuff is coming from Howie. But he is loved for some reason. After seeing Beau molesting Kayser this evening, shouldn't the sheep have all come to Kaysers rescue? We have a few people on this board who just want to stir the pot, or don;t live in America, or are the ones that perpetuate this new idea that a look, a touch, or even playful jab is "sexual harrassment" and let's call the lawyers. Please, I am 36, have been in the workplace for 20 years now and have seen people lose their carreers over something that was "misinterpreted" and it is a joke. When people went to court over an episode of Seinfeld and claimed sexual harrassment, I knew we were on a downhill slope. But hey, let them keep it up, soon no one will be able to look, touch, or even be near someone else in public or private, at work or at home. and then NoDoubt and sc-Steeler will be able to sit at home alone, and be proud of what they have supported. And no one willl be there to come to their rescue....for fear of being sued.....for sexual harrassment. Dep

Who Will try to take over as the next Sheep Herder. When the lead Sheep dies, a member of the herd must step up. Will it be April or Ivette? Dep

YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!! Dep (Doing the bye bye Eric Happy Dance)

Your man Kaysar takes that title, not Ivette. NoDoubt, are you high? If so, please send me some pof what you are smoking, because a fantasy world like yours would be great to live in. Ivettes voice, her attitude, her having to talk over everyone, her incessant habit of repeating a sentence over and over and over, her "I am Latin, so I can be a bitch" attitude is totally disgusting. I am actually surprised that Beau puts up with it. She is disgusting (at least as she is portraying herself on the show) and annoying. And if anyone should take blame in the fight and the hours of Fish besides Eric, it should be her and April. They have fanned the flames to Eric over and over and helped in his snapping tonight. Kaysar is nothing but a quiet, intelligent soul who is trying to play a game with some modicum of decency. He has been called Sadaam, he has had to defend Iraqi and Muslim people because of the ignorance inside the house. He has been on the block and handled it with dignity and he has done his best to try to keep things calm when his friend is now nominated and being gang banged without lube on national TV. Even as the fight broke out he was trying to calm things down, while Ivette was continuing to rile things up. You need to rethink your opinions I think. Sit back and look at all the actions Dep

People, get real. There was serious incident in the house tonight and they need to address it and take appropriate action. I am almost sure that if we all ent back and read the small print whenh we signed up for the live feeds, it has something realting to this type of situation. Go to bed, and when you get upo, hopefully, the feeds will be back. This is not a common occurence and they need to protect themselves as well. I would love to see Erics ass being walked out the door as much as anyone, but I also understand they have a volatile situation on their hands and they need to protect EVERYONE involved. Just chill Dep

Thaqnx Shockalot for the link. It does show that, even though sometimes these sad events happen, they do increase ratings. So BB will prolly be thinking of that as they reach their decision. When it comes to right and wrong and the almighty dollar, I wonder which they will choose. Will be interesting to see the ads for the coming weeks shows after tonight. I keep hearing "On the most dramitic BB yet" and "the Summer of secrets has been turned into the "Summer of Scandal", and of course, all the news stations will have to have special, in depth reports on "Reality TV" and if it is safe and if the bounds are being pushed too far. And the scary thing is, in this day and age, it could all play in favor of what the right wing has been saying about TV going too far and we could be without shows like these. Dep Don;t blame the alcohol, blame the 'roids and the "short man syndrome" Dep

Maybe they will just be given a week of no HOH, no POV, no food competion. A week (well, till thurs at least) to just decompress? I kinda think they all need it and it might make people actually forget about the game for a bit, talk to others, make new alliances, etc. They can definately fill Thurs live show with clips and discussion about the events, no one gets evicted, they have the HOH comp and go from there. They could throw in a luxury challenge during the week to help get things back on solid ground. I think that is what they have done in the past. It is interesting though that it seems like the one's who crack always do it in the first 3 weeks. Goes to show that even with psycholigical testing and all that, you never really know how someone will react to living in a fishtank until they are actually there. Dep

God, if looking at people was a crime, I would have been sent to the electric chair starting at about the age of 7, that was when I really perfected my stare. As a fan of 80's music, I can not resist "Fish Heads, Fish Heads, rolly polly Fish Heads, Fish Heads, Fish Heads, eat them up yum." Dep

but Michaels knees might have been bruised

I can honestly say that the producers will either evict Eric, or Eric and Michael. I for one wouldn't feel safe in the house after what I saw tonight. The people who were thrown out in previous seasons did much less in my opinion. Throwing a chair.....yawn, the whole thing with the knife was overblown, but this time, you obviously have 1 person who is guaranteed violent. You don;t wan't to keep that kinda energy in the house and risk another spectacle like this in the future. Remember, we are in week 2. The producers have to look at the fact that if Eric is so violent this early, what will happen down the road when the competion gets even more intense? Michael is safe as far as I am concerned because all he did is trash talk, Eric is the one who visibly was bubbling over and got violent over words. Words people. Think about that. As a gay man, I have been assaulted with words against me, my family, my friends, all my life and I have never been put into a rage by them like we saw tonight. Let someone call me a fag, let someone say I have a small dick, let someone call my mother a whore. I just laugh and try to come up with a quick retort, or just walk away. They are words, not knives. If yuou are secure in yourself, you have no probloem handling that. If you are insecure, you react with violence. Michael has put up with hate words for a week and has not acted out physically. Eric hears a few commenst tonight, supposedly confident that Michael would be gone in a few days anyways, and gets violent. You be the judge Dep

but Wolfrider, the only reason everyone is say9ing they are threatened by mMichael is because Eric has drilled it into them that he is a threat. And so they go along becuase it takes the attention off of them. Michael has not been a threat to anyone in that house physically. As for the knives being removed, where did you see/hear that? That is new info to me Dep

Will be interesting to see what the sheep feel about Cappy after this if he stays. I means, hasn't most of this week been about them feeling "unsafe" around Michael? I think if Eric is in the house, Michael, Howie, whoever would feel more safe than the insane midget from hell. Even the girls. I just watched the closeup feed that someone posted of Eric as the fight was breaking out and it truly gave me chills. The anger in his eyes, the violence that you could see bubbling. It was uncomsfortable just to see, imagine being there. But the sheep will probably stand up for him regardless. If Eric stays, CBS is asking for trouble. Dep

But this is the best "Twist" yet if Michael was actually able to get Eric to go off by trash talking and not breaking the rules. It may be underhanded and it sure as hell puts a target on him, but at least Eric will be gone. Maybe then, we will start seeing some real playing instead of Eric and his flock. Dep

First Nebartist, you crack me up!!! Thank you for the laughs. Wolfrider, you hit the nail on the head. But, this year there don;t seem to be as many folks on here who can agree to disagree and not go for blood. Hell, ScottichTxn (sorry to be bringing you up again Scottish, but you are a GREAT example) and I disagreed on stuff last year and bickered, we disagree this year on some stuff, and we definately have different views outside of the game, but he is one of my favorite posters, and even if I met him in real life, I would be happy to sit down and buy him a drink and talk. And he is intelligent in his posts, I on the other hand am many times not and go on emotion and what I am feeling at the moment, or I do things like post my "Anyone know where Eric's firehouse is" post last night. That post was strictly a bet between someone else and I on what the response would be and if a certain person would respond and how. It worked, and I won the bet. I always like to push peoples buttons, and I love to be able to show certain sides of people by just posting a certain word. It is all part of the game for me. But I never intend to hurt people and what I say on here, I say in a game sense, not in a real life sense. This show is rats in a cage and many people on this board and others are the same way. I just find it all amusing. Dep

Thank you for posting that. It makes it even more clear, I was on a different cam. Bye Bye Eric Dep

Hey sc-Steeler You can dislike every post I make because you obviously don't agree with many of my ideas or opinions, but please do not assume you know what I do or do not know about. That is very ignorant on your part. If you don;t like my posts, then don;t read. Respond if you want, but remeber this is a "discussion" board and people will disagree. What happened to all the nice folks from past seasons who even though they didn;t agree could still get along? Dep

Ok, in the past, people have been removed from the house for bad behavior, but if I am remembering correctly, it has never been the HOH. If Eric is removed (please BB Gods), then do they not have an eviction this week? Or if they give him a penalty nomination, which we have all heard about but never actually seen, does that mean that the 3 of them would be up? If that's the case, considering this is a week where a tie could result, who would break the tie and do you think that the sheep would still vote out Michael after seeing this? God bless Michael if he was smart enough to push the right buttons and get Eric evicted without doing a thing. He could have actually saved himself and Janelle for this week which no one thought was possible. Regardless, I have been saying and think this proves that Eric is the unstable one. Like I say, I really liked him at first, but after so many hours on the live feeds, he is definately the creepiest out of all of them. Also, is he is removed, what does that do for Maggie? Dep

Of course it is ok for Cappy, he is GOD in that house, remember? I can't remember a more power hungry, arrogant houseguest as he is. At least not this out in the open. It would be ok if he was doing his dirty talk and backstabbing in the DR and quietly controlling (Remember the love to hate Dr Will?) But he just totally got infected with power and all his sheep joined in and egged it all on. I mentioned last night, Mob Mentality" and we saw it's outcome here tonight. Dep

Oh my God, I am soooo happy there is the possibilty that Eric will get booted out on his sorry ass. He has definately turned from one of my faves in the first week, to the lowest person in the house besides Ivette and April. I do feel kinda sorry for Maggie though as she seems like a nice person. Like the say, what comes around goes around and with the antagonastic crap they have all been playing on Michael,.....welll, I hope it does bite them in the butt. There was also talk the other night (and I have NO idea if this is true or not in reality) but some of the houseguests were prettu sure that Eric had used Steroids in the past. If he was drinking and that is true, he definately could have had roid rage. It can happen even after you stop taking the drugs. Well, I truly hope that if nothig else, the BB folks put Eric up on a penalty nomination and make sure he understands that his crap is nopt entertaining in the least. Dep

Was watching at the time and Anne got it completely right above.

Ummmm, Howie touches all the time. Not sure what feeds you are watching. He also smells the girls dirty panties and asks if he can sleep with the panties after they have worn them. Oh and Michael stares and gets werid loooks on his face and hugs the girls. Yeah, Mike is definately more sexually harrassing.....Not. Dep

Would be a tossup but Eric or April for sure Instead of voting someone out, could we just vote to have Ivettes lips sewn shut? LOL Dep

Isn't POV comp. usually done on Sun and the ceremony on Mon? Why do you think they are moving it so fast this week? Dep

Reporters, keep up the good work. If you censor the live feed updates, then what is the point. Tell it like it is. Dep

It really depends on where they live. Seeing as how a mojority of these HG's live in FL, they have no state tax so that definately makes it easier. I also don;t think there is state tax in TX where ScottishTxn is (if I am wrong, please let me know), but here in VA, we pay $1600.00 on mortgage alone and that is cheap these days, other bills easily add up to $1,500.00, so the $3000.00 a month would just cover bills, it would not cover food or anything else. It expensive here! But, from what I have seen and heard over the years of BB, many have money already and many have family members who are willing to help them out. Also, remember, that if any "Exits voluntarily" or walks out, they lose any money they would have received, so that is definately an added incentive to stay and put up with the BS. If these folks were all rich, they wouldn;t hesitate, but it seems that money does matter for the most of them. Dep
