Reality Roll Call

When we last checked in, after Big Brother ended Thursday night, the King of the Vine HoH competition left Dan a winner. The problem was, in order to win the competition, he made a deal with the other player left on a vine in the rain: Ollie.

Normally, the deals made in the endurance comps are pretty straight forward; the winner promises not to put the loser on the block to be nominated for eviction. This deal between Ollie and Dan has to be the weirdest in Big Brother history. Not only does Dan agree not to put Ollie up for eviction, he promises to keep Michelle safe. Not only that, but Ollie gets to choose one person to put on the block. And as if that wasn’t enough relinquishment of power, Dan tells Ollie that if someone comes off the block, due to the Power of Veto, Ollie can pick who he wants to go up as a replacement. What the hell, why not just give him HoH, Dan?

We’re about 3 hours and 45 minutes into the competition and all but Dan and Ollie have been eliminated. As with any Big Brother endurance competition, there are people calling foul. Michelle fell off because her leg got caught in a net that’s part of the wall that they were smashing into. I see why she’s complaining, but earlier in the competition she grabbed on to that very same net to save herself from falling.

Memphis was the last to fall so far, and seemed to be in the worse shape of everyone. Think about the condition that Dick was in at the of of his endurance competition, and if thats a 10 Memphis was about an 8. BB production even came over the loud speaker to ask him if he was okay.

Na na na na, hey hey hey goodbye, April. It’s the end of this season’s showmance, and also the end of a lot of perverts’ 24/7 feed subscriptions. April didn’t really pose much of a threat competition-wise, but then again nobody this season really does. I think she was an easy target because she always talked about how great she was and how awesome her life is outside of the house. Not to mention that she had a solid alliance with Ollie. Sure, she’ll be missed, but no where near as much as Dan, Michelle, or Renny would be if they got evicted. Those three are what make the feeds worth watching; Renny especially.

With Renny’s nominations of Jerry, and April, there’s nobody in the house other than them or Ollie that would change the nominations if they won veto. I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to see that that’s pretty bad odds for the nominees, at least a first glance anyway. If we run down the list of remaining house guests it looks like the nominees would have a pretty good chance of winning the veto…

Renny: She’s smart, but if it’s something extremely physical that requires speed, she’ll be a long shot to win it. All she’s won this season was the HoH competition.

Keesha: She’s a really good competitor,  but she can’t seem to get over that hump that makes her a dominant force in competitions. If memory serves me right she only won HoH once.

Tonight Libra was evicted from the Big Brother house, and as a result she has become the first member of the jury. When I saw that fight with her and Jessie last week, I knew she’d be going this week. Her big mouth ultimately led to her downfall. I’m not a fan of hers, but I will miss the funny looks she’d get on her face when certain things were said.

I’m now interested to see what kind of damage the newly formed Renegades(Memphis and Dan) can do in the house. But I’ll have to wait another week to see if they get power because Renny is the new HoH. Renny hasn’t had any really big blowouts with anyone in the house. We know she doesn’t see eye to eye with Jerry, so that gives us one potential  nomination, but the second one is a toss up. She could go the safe route, and nominate Michelle, but I’d like to see her make a strong play and nominate April. The real game of Big Brother starts because what Renny does this week will set the house up for a mad dash to the finish.

Deadwood
Michelle wins HOH this week. Absolutely incredible. The funny thing is her targets this week. April made an agreement to spare Jesse from the block when she and April were competing for HOH the previous week. April went back on her word, proving she cannot be trusted. Michelle, of all people, should have seen that red flag from the get go. Then again, she is the Deadwood this season, so perhaps she has not been playing this game all along, or without a brain. If you have the chance to take out the person on top wouldn’t you do that, versus getting out the henchmen?… who knows. Needless to say, her thoughts on stirring up the house and continuing to get in Keesha’s face will prove to hurt her in this house for sure in weeks to come.

I don’t even think i really needed to post this, but Libra and Keesha were nominated for eviction this week. Libra, the main antagonist and conspirator in the whole Jessie eviction, is Michelle’s main target. Keesha too, has done her fair share of arguing, but she is merely just caught in Michelle’s cross-hairs by mere association with Libra.

Today the luxury/food competition was played. The current house guests seem to have really gotten a kick out of the alumni showing up to help out with the competition. Although we weren’t able to see the competition on the live feeds, there was quiet a bit of talk about it when it was over. Apparently, the alumni cheered when Michelle went up for her turn in the comp, and in stark contrast fell dead silent when Libra took the stage. Since the comment was made by Michelle I’ll assume the alumni were probably more vocal when she took her turn and just clapped when Libra went up. I don’t think they’d blatantly show that they didn’t like somebody by not clapping at all.

After watching my friend Keesha’s HOH week, I have continued to see improvements in her gameplay. Her HOH nominations were a bold move on her part, but I agree with them hands down. She actually nominated the adversaries that aided in the destruction of Steven; a move not even Danielle from season 8 could do to save Nick from the chopping block. So, kudos to you Keesha, a very bold move. In addition, even after mass coercion she stuck to her guns, and did not use the POV– very nice. She may find out the hard way that Libra will back stab her in the end, but at least she has her as a friend for a few weeks to come.

The Meathead (Jesse)
Once again, arrogance got the best of this breakdown Buzz. Mr Lightyear panicked like a stray dog, and decided to show his cards early. This may, in fact, bite him in the ass soon. All I can say for Buzz, is I’d be willing to bet his time is limited. Buzz off Buzz.

Tonight Angie Swindell, the pharmaceutical sales representative from Orlando was the third house guest evicted from the Big Brother house. Angie played the game by sitting around quietly, observing the other house guests. She never really got too involved, and I think that might have been what did her in. The only good thing about her being evicted over Jessie is that there is one more week of drama between the two sides of the house.
