BY GUEST BLOGGER-MY FRIEND JEFF!!!
I can't believe tonights episode. Here are my thoughts and the what I'd like to see happen . Just wanted to write some stuff down while it was fresh.
Well the Final 3 for BB11 has been set. Kevin, holding the POV decided to use it and take himself off the block. Not an unexpected move. I’m pretty sure that anyone faced with the choice of taking yourself out of harms way (on the block in this game) or staying and hoping that someone else will have your back would be foolish to do the later. Jordan, being the only other person available takes Kevin’s place on the block. Kevin then has the job of casting the only vote on who will be evicted and who will stay and play in the Final 3 competition. Both Michelle and Jordan are given the opportunity to explain why they should be the one selected to stay while the other goes to the jury house. Now before Kevin casts his vote, we must look at the last 2-3 episodes.
First Jeff won HOH and nominated both Kevin and Natalie for eviction. Then he stupidly decided to listen to the lies that both Natalie and Kevin told, fanning his paranoia and turning him against Russell. Russell had been an ally prior to this and although he was an instigator against numerous people in the house, he hadn’t done anything against Jeff while Jeff was HOH until Jeff started listening to the people he nominated. Jeff then won POV and pulled Kevin off the block and replaced him with Russell. Now why would you pull one of your own nominations off and replace them when you could have just made the nomination to begin with. Bonehead play Jeff. And he would pay dearly for it. By pulling Kevin off the block he started a snowball of events that would directly lead to his eviction a week later and put us in the situation where Kevin and Natalie both survive. Now Kevin hadn’t won anything at all until week 8 when he finally got HOH. He repaid Jeff’s kindness for removing him off the block the week before by first saying Jeff was safe from eviction and then turning around and nominating him anyway. I didn’t have much respect for Kevin all season long. Until week 8 the most he did was sashay around and complain about not winning anything. It was also at this point that he and Natalie cemented their alliance. Jeff was evicted and then Natalie won HOH. The last couple shows he’s appeared to be having second thoughts about Natalie and not trusting her but then he goes along with what she wants. Either he is playing that up for the episodes or he’s flat out lying about it. Even on BB After Dark on he spends most of the time with her.
Natalie who in my humble opinion is the perfect example for an advertisement for propolatics. All she does is consume oxygen and expel hot air. Her voice is like listening to someone scraping fingernails across a blackboard, her habit of basically repeating whatever question she is asked before answering and her head bobbing and eye blinking make me wish I could reach into my TV screen and just choke her or knock her out. When she won HOH she kept saying that “this is for your Chima, this is for you”. Just to refresh my memory, who was responsible for Chima being not only evicted from the house but kicked out of the entire game…oh that’s right it was……..Chima for her diva attitude, not following the rules that she agreed and I’m pretty sure probably signed for and throwing her mike into the pool instead of wearing it. So for Natalie to make her comments the way she did was stupidity on her part, in my humble opinion. This was the first competition that she had won but she made it sound like she had conquered everyone else and was the last dumbass standing. Natalie then proceeds to open Pandora’s Box and is able to spend a total of 20 minutes with her boyfriend who proposes marriage to her. That poor dumb bas&@*d. He should have run away as soon as she was locked inside the house. Since she got the “good” karma from Pandora’s Box while everyone else was being irritated by surprise guests dressed as a rather large rotund baby, a vertically challenged copy cat and a giant roach spraying “people” spray, she then tells everyone else in the house one of the stupidest bold face lies that backfired on her, forcing her to come clean. Even as she was explaining what had happened, you could see that no one was buying that one either. During Tuesday’s show while she was up in the HOH room talking to Julie Chen, she said that by lying about her age from the start she thinks everyone thought she among other things, naïve, immature, not intelligent (all things she is) and that helped her get this far in the game. And the worst part, she believes this equine excrement. She got this far in the game on the coattails of other people; first Jesse, then Russell, then Lydia and finally Kevin. In fact she did say in tonight’s episode that she would take the blood on her hands for Michelle leaving. That is the first thing she had had to do this game. Hopefully Kevin who appears to be seeing the light (way to late in the game) on her true personality (or lack of one) will decide to throw her under the bus and take Jordan to the final 2.
I feel sorry for Michelle and Jordan. They were both favorites of mine from the start. In fact I voted for Michelle to have the cou’p de tate instead of Jeff. But I think Jeff played it better than Michelle would have. Michelle has been the target of some of the worst players that I’ve seen in this game in a long time. I don’t think she deserves the abuse she’s endured but she’s hung there as long as she could. Jordan seems to have come from a very sheltered life. She has some common sense and isn’t stupid but not the sharpest tool in the shed. I don’t think she has any street sense. I see her like that cute little polar bear cub from the Berlin zoo named Knut. According to the law of the jungle where only the strongest survive, he would have died had humans not fed him and nurtured him. They kept him alive and he can function in his sheltered world of his cage, but he will never be able to survive in the wild. He has lost most if not all of the normal instincts that he was born with. Jordan will function just fine in her sheltered world back in North Carolina and maybe she can learn enough to survive in the hostile world of places like Los Angeles, Chicago and New York but she’ll also need a lot of luck or someone to look after her.
If I were King for a Day and could decide who would be in the final 2, it would be Michelle and Jordan. Natalie would be expelled like her “homely” Chima and Kevin would be sent to the jury house. Let’s hope that if Natalie and Kevin end up in the final 2, Natalie’s eviction meeting speech and final farewell video to Michelle comes a haunt her. And if it is Kevin and Jordan in the final 2, maybe Kevin will regret his last words to Michelle before he voted her out and those words come back to bite him in the butt. Although he would probably enjoy that.-JEFF
