Time to open the diary room…but who’s on the block?

by BBBlogger on August 19, 2010

So Matt and Lane are “currently” on the block and up for eviction but since Matt has the Diamond POV, my guess is that it will be used. My thought is that Kathy is going to be the replacement nomination.

So one thing is for sure….it will be LANE vs. someone other than MATT!

I think that PK (one of the awesome regular commentors on Big Brother Blog) explained Matt’s options this morning quite well….

PK 08.19.10 at 9:17 am

Tonight we will see if Matt is as smart as he claims to be. His IQ dropped 40 points when he failed to put B&R on the block when he won HOH the first time around.

If he puts Kathy up for eviction it is a short term safe move and guarantees her eviction and keeps the Brogade intact until Enzo, Hayden and Lane can dump him the next time he is on the block with any other brogade member. Bad move long term if Matt hopes to get to the final 2.

If he puts Btit up for eviction it is a short term safe move and guarantees her eviction and keeps the Brogade intact until Enzo, Hayden and Lane can dump him the next time he is on the block with any other brogade member. Bad move long term if Matt hopes to get to the final 2. He needs her to net the bungling borgade out sooner than later.

If he sees the writing on the wall – ALL CAPS – that he is at the very bottom of the borgade pecking order despite the fact that he is the only one of them actually doing more than eating, sleeping, playing pool and simply talking the talk, with or without pretending to be auditioning for a dumb guy role on the Sopranos, he will get rid of Enzo NOW!

Without Matt on boaed, the Brogade is doomed and Matt, Ragan, Brit and Kathy can target Brendon, Hayden, Lane (Brit can live with that for a shot at half a mil) in that order. Kathy would be disposed of then, leaving the winners/real players free to compete for the big prize with the losers long gone.

Think about it Matt… Real hard… Play to win…

So tell us Big Brother 12 faithful…who do you want to see Matt put up and then who do you vote to evict out of the Big Brother 12 house this week.

Peace, BBBlogger

PS: this blog is about YOU and without you guys this blog would not exists. Thanks for being a part of the blog and the family!

Pool Game or Pool Side? California Temps Rise at the Big Brother House!

by BBBlogger on August 18, 2010

Yesterday Big Brother Blogger brought you not one, but three separate blogs to play on! Mighty generous of him, I’d say, so why not send him a donation for all his hard work! There’s a “donate” button over there…no, down a little more…it’s not very big, scroll down to the center, see it? Just above the “download” Big Brother I-tunes thingie. Yep! You found it! Any amount helps a Big Brother Blogger out!

And now back to our regularly scheduled program! Yesterday and last night found our HGs with huge realizations and epiphanies! They have now determined that Rachel isn’t the Saboteur, that it positively must be Kathy! …or is it? You already know how good they are at putting things together that don’t belong, so let’s hope BB doesn’t make an HOH competition out of the old game “Concentration” because production would be the only winner. And just when they thought it was safe to point their bored gaze at Kathy, here’s this breaking news:

A secret note found it’s way under Enzo’s pillow, when Kathy is the one who made the bed. Pens and paper are against BB rules, so who wrote it and how did it get there? All it said was: “I know your secret,” and he didn’t find it until nearly 4:00 this morning! Enzo thought this new and improved Saboteur was Big Brother, but Kathy has always said it’s one of them, so just when they were ready to hit the sack, they ended up staying awake trying to figure out who it planted it. They were on lock down earlier in the day, so it’s a BB mystery! Since they don’t have a phone, they can’t call the Scooby Doo gang.

Enzo and Hayden are still suspicious of Matt and planning to vote him out tomorrow and keep an alliance with Brendon. In a way, I feel sorry for these guys because they’re spending so much time trying to make the right decision and it’s all for naught. Matt’s sitting pretty with the DPOV but can’t tell. The Brigade may be in tact after tomorrow, but Matt knowing they want to vote him out may change his game. Never fear, he still has Ragan.

My issue now is the feeds. They have four of them and oftentimes all four are on one HG or one conversation, an empty room, a vase, the hallway, the bathroom sink. Sorry folks, but when Britney is on those feeds, I quickly morph into Snagglepuss, “exit stage left!” And when she’s on all four of them, the little red “X” gets a click. I’d rather watch last seasons’ shower-less Natalie in her collection of basketball shorts than listen to this girl.

So with the temperatures rising in California, with a high of 85 expected today, it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity…at 61%. There’s not a lot for our HGs to do but either play pool or lay by one, lift weights, bash Brendon eat or nap. They’re all anxious for tomorrow and worried about HOH. On a side note, does anyone else wish that just once, the Flamingos would suddenly break into song & dance when one of the HGs walked by? =^^=

Get to know Lane Elenburg: The Dark Horse of BB12?

by BBBlogger on August 17, 2010

Lane Elenburg, a 24 year-old (previous) Texas Tech football player, with down to earth personality, sarcasm and a dry wit that delights on pulling pranks on Brit and fellow houseguests. As he stated his daily job is a sales person (in the oil industry). However, Lane does several things that prove he is in fact, this season’s dark horse contestant. He is part of a four-member alliance that formed within the first few days (the Brigade – Matt, Hayden, Enzo); he has stated that while he has a game plan, he won’t disclose it. Other notable incidents include, having a rock solid friendship/side alliance with Brit, where they have shared information, both encouraging the entire house for an HOH win against Brendon this week. He also continually does well at challenges, although, not excelling enough to be perceived as a huge threat.


Some little known facts about Lane that you might find interesting, he attended High School in Jacksboro, TX and his brother plays football at MSU; apparently he and his brother look very similar. While playing high school football in Texas, Lane, his teammates and his friend’s got to play the infamous Colt McCoy in the State Playoffs. This shows you how good Lane’s football team was. He also used to own his own gym/studio in his hometown (Jacksboro, TX), clearly a man that takes his training seriously. On every forum, blog, twitter and Facebook group, all everyone can talk about when Lane is mentioned is his physical shape and his tattoos. This is a marked change from the very first day he arrived in the Big Brother house. Most of us thought he was so shy and quiet that he would never survive the first week.

He had a private moment with Andrew that showed he does like to learn about other cultures and types of people. He admitted to Andrew, later Enzo and even Ragan, that in Texas he’s right at home and almost everyone is the same. He’s extremely comfortable with his hunting buddies, football friends and family. However, he told all of them, he is also a shy person, on the inside, and really likes to sit back and take in the situation. He in a lot of ways is like recently departed Kristen, where she spoke more about the things that were important to her. Lane has realized he must have a social game in order to move on. He, Enzo, Hayden and Matt have a super strong alliance that was just starting to peak Kristen’s attention when she went home. Ragan has started watching them. So, they may need to watch their backs.

Lane adopted his dog from a local boxer rescue group. He supported the group and allowed them to be the hub of “Team Lane” events and merchandise to raise money for rescues. They held a huge watch party for Lane, down in Fort Worth, TX, for his friends and family. The Boxer Rescue sold a line of Team Lane items (hats, shirts, and more).

Ladies, don’t worry, he isn’t married! No hidden secret wife at home. Many of the folks I spoke to online from Texas that know him said he’s not a “big, dumb, redneck” like he plays. That this may be some of his game play, and if anyone has noticed conversations between Brit and Lane, where she tells him that of everyone in the house, he has the best take on everyone in the game. She relies on him to ground her. She uses him to bounce off ideas, especially the weeks that Rachel was in control. He’s a total big guy with a heart. He does rarely show that side of himself in the house. He’s my pick for the dark horse of the game, and with a Facebook page of almost 5,000 fans and growing he’s certainly gaining popularity daily.

Which HG Is The Chairman Of The “Bored” in the Big Brother House?

by BBBlogger on August 17, 2010

My vote? Kathy! Our HGs were greatly disappointed yesterday that their anticipated competition didn’t happen. What did happen was the first POV meeting where Ragan used his POV on himself and Brendon replaced him with Matt! This stunned Enzo & Hayden who saw this as a betrayal by Brendon who promised them he’d nominate Britney and not “back door” Matt. Now it’s two Brigade members on the block and they’re “gunnin’ for Brendon.” So what else is new. The house has collectively decided that no matter who wins HOH, Brendon is going home. And Matt is playing off his DPOV possession as well as Ragan is hiding his Saboteur Sash.

It’s easy to forget that Matt & Ragan are in a side alliance together which is fitting since they’re the HGs with the most current BB secrets. And Ragan told Matt that he is willing to make any kind of deal with Kathy to get her vote keep him in the house. Not necessary, but a nice gesture and Matt was grateful. Ragan was concerned after his POV speech that it may have come off “too girlie” and that he didn’t want to be the “crying gay guy.” I say it’s a little late to worry about that. Nearly everyone cries in the BB house!

Britney, Enzo, Hayden and Lane have concluded that Rachel is the Saboteur based on their believed brilliant theories of Rachel’s statements and behaviors. All the HGs excel at making square pegs fit into round holes during their speculation meetings and Britney thinks she’s especially relevant. She believes that certain events happened all because of her conversation with Rachel…They keep forgetting the basic premise of Big Brother: Expect the unexpected. What they think they know, they don’t. They don’t suspect Ragan as the Saboteur. They don’t suspect Matt has a secret power even after he has all but told them! They also don’t know that Matt is lying about his wife’s health.

Yesterday was mostly quiet with the occasional interruption of Brendon bashing. How he’s still playing the game for Rachel, making decisions she’d want him to make – how everything he does is for her and in her memory. She’s only a few miles away in a Hollywood Hills mansion and unless he’s a master magician he’ll be joining her in a week!

It’s probably just me, and I know it is based on the opinions expressed on this board, but I’m actually pulling for Brendon at this point. Yeah, yeah, I know, slap me and call me Skippy, but after watching the feeds and BBAD, he is his own underdog, and worst enemy and made a huge “showmance” mistake with Rachel. But for any of the other HGs to cry foul on anything he’s done in the game is ridiculous. It is just a game…with boxes of tissues, rolling around in caramel, being covered in popcorn, untying yourself from water weighted ropes, trying not to fall off a surf board, sliding off a giant hot dog, spinning on a paint can, having to eat slop and sleep in a freezing room with jarred up creepy critters…it’s bound to take toll.

Our HGs were tired folk yesterday. But after a while, I could no longer watch the feeds with them going back and forth with this scenario or that scenario, fantasizing about winning competitions. As a viewer with knowledge of the DPOV, it’s hard to listen to and the Brendon bashing just gets to be too much. Although it was funny yesterday listening to Brendon talk to himself in the HOH room before he took a nap. No one else is really talking to him, so who else does he have? He needs Wilson.

What will today bring? Matt has already said he’s going to “chill” for the next few days and just enjoy his friendships in the house. He has nothing to worry about so why not play it cool? He’ll have the Brigade on his side so it doesn’t matter who his replacement is, you can bet they’re going home. What say you? Do you think there will be a double eviction this week? We may be in for a few BB surprises come Thursday! =^^=

We found Natty and here is what she is thinking

by BBBlogger on August 17, 2010

Hello BB fans!! Sorry I’m late with Fridays Blog!! Life is a little hectic & crazy for me but I still gotta put in my 2 cents! Yay!!! I’m so happy Rachel got evicted!! Rachel started playing BB way too hard right off the bat. I forgot who said this, it might have been Dan BB10 but I believe he sad “this is a marathon, not a race” Rachel came out sprinting, trying to win the whole thing in week one. In Big brother you wanna take your time & lay low in the beginning. The worst thing you can do is fight & threaten people. Rachel did that & now she’s out. So for future bb hopefuls, stay under the radar & don’t win comps in the beginning if you want to last. Also don’t talk crap about past hg’s unless you wanna get caught. We always find out who’s been talking crap or saying what. I have a feeling Rachel is gonna get the 3rd degree from pretty much every past houseguest at the Vegas Bash for all the crap she’s said. I’m just thankful she’s gone & I don’t have to listen to her on the feeds whine & complain about how all she does is fight! PLEEEEEEASE! Newsflash Rachel…. You wouldn’t have to be such a fighter if you weren’t such a bitch!!! The only nice thing I have to say bout Rachel is she gives me lots to talk about!! HAHA.. & that’s sad because I was rooting for her in the beginning & thought I was really gonna like her.

Some people are like why do you talk bout Rachel so much on the blogs!? HELLO, she is like the only person they show on the stinking show!!! Ever since she’s been in the house it’s been the BRENCHEL show!! So that’s why!! If the other hg’s did anything or got air time I might talk bout them all the time! FREEEAK!!

So let’s see how Brenden’s gonna do without Rachel huh? I wonder how he will play now without her. I have a feeling I’m gonna like him better with her gone but we shall see. I can’t believe the way he acted at the veto comp. It just goes to show you that you have to maintain a positive attitude. If he just woulda said Ok I can do this & actually thought before he chucked the balls down the lane, he mighta actually made more than 3 shots. But instead he just threw a hissy fit & got all worked up & lost.

Why the heck should everyone feel bad for him & Rachel because they lost the veto. That is freaking Joke that Rachel was demanding an apology from Kathy when she beat her in the veto. I mean WHOOPTIFREAKINGDINGDONG!!!! HELLO Rachel you didn’t think she’d beat you & she did!! If i were Kathy I woulda let out a yelp too! For crying out loud it’s the only thing she’s won in the game so far, & she didn’t even WIN ANYTHING!! SO what! I didn’t see Rachel apologizing after she won her comps. She was just yelling at everyone” floaters grab a life vest!” & “bring it on!” If someone was yelling that at me like that, DAMN skippy I’d cheer & yell “YAY” if I won.

It’s so funny to me how whenever the sabotuer comes on the tv, all the hg’s jump up & yell as if something great is gonna happen. YAY, Sabotuer!! SOMETHING Bad is about to happen & we are all excited & happy to hear the bad news!!! haha, that’s so funny to me. You can tell they are really bored in there. I’m really not too crazy about this whole sabotuer thing though. I thought for sure that the sabotuer would do way more damage than what’s already been done. I mean everything he has done is kinda weak. I’m hoping for something huge. C’mon Sabotuer, reallly SABOTAGE THE HOUSE!!! Can’t he do stuff on his own??? Or does he only have to listen to America’s suggestions?

It was nice to see Jeff & Jordan again in the house, I love those two! They are so funny & cute. I love them because they always stayed so positive & Jeff is so flippin funny!! He always says what I’m thinking! LMAO!! It’s nice to see they are still together!! YAY!

Brenden did not do a very good job at making other hg’s hate him. Didn’t Brenden see season 8 with Evel Dick? Now he knew how to make a house hate him. What Brenden did was kind of a joke, they just laughed at him & made fun of him. I wasn’t too fond of Britney making fun of the way he walks though. I’m not a fan of personal attacks. Game attack people all you want but don’t make fun of things people can’t help, like the way you look, or walk. That’s just not nice.

This is the first season of BB where I actually have no absolute favs. there is no one that I really love to death like Jeff bb11 & Howie bb6. SO with that being said the only people I’m rooting for at this point is Lane, Matt & Britney. Weeks ago I said if they don’t get rid of Kathy she will make it to the end. I’m telling you, people will continue to overlook her & she’s gonna make it to final 3. People always say ohhh we can get rid of her later, we can beat her later, she’s not a huge threat. I hate to say it but the weakest ones are huge threats!!

Well that’s it from me for now!! love you bb fans!
xoxoxo,
Natty BB9

Let’s Saboteur Twist Again, Like We Did Last Summer!

by BBBlogger on August 16, 2010

Our Saboteur is getting a bad rap, and I know, we didn’t have him last year, but every summer BB brings us a new twist in the game! The HGs are blaming him for everything, which means they’re not happy with us, America! After all, we gave them eggplant and escargot as yummy accompaniments to their slop cookies and protein shakes. The Saboteur twists up the HGs with our suggestions, and the HGs, once again, think there’s a “life-long” relationship in the house involving either Kathy or Britney. And Ragan is playing it off beautifully!

We left our Big Brother saga with Rachel talking to all the HGs individually, and with Brendon MIA. Pebbles and Bamm Bamm never did share a giant drink or have the opportunity to cuddle under Snuggies in the HOH room. Rachel had a one on one with Lane where she talked a lot about how she wasn’t afraid to make bold moves and anger the house. It would appear she still has no problem doing that since it was a whirlwind of emotional upset when she returned. But BB history dictates…the fewer the HGs, the more drama for us!

Rachel made the recommendation to Lane that he should be in an alliance with Brendon, Hayden & Enzo and that he’s only on the block to get rid of Ragan. She made sure to twirl her still attached extensions and tell Lane that Matt is the core of all the evil in the house and he needs to go! I said yesterday for Matt to watch for the knife and there it is!

Personally, I think the Brigade will be just fine and even stronger once they learn of the Diamond Veto power Matt holds. Matt has played it very cool this week, and last night eluded heavily to them how they will all be fine, without actually revealing his power. Kathy and Brendon, however, believe there may be a secret power given to an HG by the Saboteur that takes someone off the block. Let’s remember: Ragan has the POV, he will use it on himself. Matt has the Diamond Veto, he can use it, or not which is sometimes the smartest choice.

And can’t you just hear Enzo once he realizes that Matt held the Diamond Veto. “Oh, yeah, yo..a’ course, dude, that {expletive} explains it, yeah, yo man, we’re good, ya know? Never shoulda doubted ya…” Brigade saved, Bromance in tact and a 4-way “hug-it-out.” On the other hand, if the Diamond Veto is not used, will Matt have BB permission to explain himself? If not, Matt will still be a target by the Brigade for his questionable loyalty to Ragan.

Brendon’s whereabouts are still somewhat of a mystery, but I have my theory. We know he had a massage and went to “a” jury house – whether or not it was “the” jury house, remains to be seen. My theory is that he was recuperating after having received a tattoo to “guard and protect” Rachel’s heart, a la, Kasey – a brilliant idea he saw while riveting himself to the TV screen with a box of Kleenex during this season’s “Bachelorette.” Good thing he doesn’t have a guitar. Could you imagine if we had to hear him sing to her, too?

Yesterday and last night was more of the same. Some bashing, rehashing and mostly plotting and planning for future minutes, hours, days and weeks in the BB house. Today will be the POV ceremony for our HGs and you can bet Ragan has already practiced his speech in front of the BB Romper Room mirror. Hopefully he won’t wear his low cut, v-neck blouse for the ceremony. Ew.

I read a lot of theories yesterday from all of you about how you think this will go down. So let’s hear some more! Hey, we can rehash just as much as the HGs! Brendon thinks he can replace Ragan as the nominee, but will he have the chance? If Brendon puts up Britney, will Matt use the DPOV to save Lane? If Brendon puts up Matt and he takes himself down, who will Matt replace himself with? It’s not just the Saboteur that twists up the HGs, we can twist it all around, too! =^^=

Just When You Thought It Was Safe…Rachel Returns To The Big Brother House!!!

by BBBlogger on August 15, 2010

I nearly knocked my giant plastic cup to the floor when I saw Rachel back in the Big Brother house! Granted, it’s just for a 24 hour “fact finding” mission with the HGs, but the plot thickens with the disappearance of Brendon! Speculation continues on his whereabouts, but it seems clear that Brenchel will not be seeing one another in this 24 hour reprieve! But…before any of the HGs can pick their jaw off the floor, Rachel walks in already fighting with Ragan! Good times. Then she continues her great inquisition as to why they all voted her off 6-0. All state it was because she was “such a great competitor.” Canned BB answer, page 9, paragraph 6 of the BB HG Manual.

So let’s review…Brendon won HOH and nominated Brigade member Lane and “floater” Ragan for eviction. But we know Ragan is the Saboteur and Matt holds the Diamond Veto. Ragan won POV, which means he will take himself off the block. It doesn’t matter who he’s replaced with because Matt is in control and no one knows! If Brendon puts Matt on the block to replace Ragan, Matt will use his Diamond Veto, and take himself or both nominees down and put up whoever he wants! There are so many possibilities and combinations even the BB fish are confused!

During an intimate conversation between Matt & Rachel, they actually behaved like friends! (watch for the knife!) The same can be said of her one on one with Kathy, where Kathy tells her how much she misses her (?). Rachel was talking about the Jury house and how “tranquil” it is and how her perspective changed within 5 hours of leaving the BB house. And Rachel provided all the classics: “Brendon & I,” her laugh, extension twirling, Vegas references, eye rolling…you get the picture!

To Matt’s credit, the reiteration of his conversation with Rachel to the other HGs was accurate as he encouraged everyone to go talk to her. Ragan refused as did Britney, and I did LOL at Britney’s reasoning, “There are lines you do not cross,” as she proceeded to put on her moral princess crown acting completely without fault in all her HG bashing. At one point, Rachel cornered Britney on her good-bye message, and Britney said she purposely left a nice message. Not what I saw, but, okay Britney, whatever you say.

And then in an attempt to offer Ragan, a cookie, Rachel confronts him in the back yard and they ended up auditioning for “Most Dramatic Performance on a Reality Show.” To me, it looked staged, but all in all it was really funny. Equally vile, equally nasty, equally personal and hateful, but in the end the award went to……Ragan to be sure, who left Rachel standing, stunned in the back yard – speechless. Think Dynasty fight between Krystal & Alexis but without the physical contact. Flash forward about 30 minutes, Rachel departs the diary room and immediately approaches Ragan with an apology, Ragan accepts her apology, they courtesy hug, sit to talk and then move into another room for privacy.

What ensued last night was a series of bus tossing, Pandora’s Box deliberation, HG fights, Saboteur identity accusations and Whack a Mole from all HGs to all HGs! Enzo is suspicious of Matt and thinks he’s flipped on the Brigade, Hayden agrees, Britney cried, Ragan took back his fuzzy feelings for Rachel remembering she didn’t shed a tear during her apology (his criteria on sincerity), Kathy blamed Brendon for Rachel’s return and may be Matt’s replacement in the Brigade, Britney cried some more, and Lane got mad and told the barbell that he hated it. Poor barbell.

There was so much going on yesterday this blog would cover the Big Brother stairs up, down and back again, so let’s suffice it say that this week will be a roller coaster of Big Brother proportions! While the HGs all volunteer to sequester themselves in a house full of strangers, cut off from the outside world, it’s easy for us to munch on our Cocoa Puffs, yell at the screen and make assumptions on what we would do. Today, Rachel leaves the house at 3:00 p.m., and assuredly that’s when Brendon will return, probably without knowledge that she was there but with stories of where he was. (I’m thinking a blindfold, limo, science fair, game or talk show?) Or maybe BB won’t allow him to tell them at all opening their suspicious minds even more!

We have the best posters on this board, so it’s your turn!!! We need to hear from you! We have the Diamond Veto, the POV, the HOH and all these HGs! What will happen this week? Ragan will take himself off – so who goes up? Will Matt use the Diamond Veto? And more importantly…will Lane apologize to the barbell? Let the typing begin! =^^=

As I open the door to the diary room why is there a line of happy people?

by BBBlogger on August 12, 2010

I just dug out my huge key ring….with a billion keys on it to unlock the diary room door and I notice that there is a long line of happy people standing waiting to cast their vote for eviction this morning. It is almost like I am giving away Apple iPhones or something.

So another week, another shomance will be history. Rachel and Brendon are both on the blog and one of them will go home in a few hours.

So this is your opportunity to cast YOUR VOTE for eviction. Tell the world who needs to LEAVE the Big Brother 12 house and why in the comment area below.

Tomorrow we will hear Natty’s Friday report and then on Saturday I have a special post about Lane from a new guest blogger who gave me a very awesome post in my email so be sure to look for that this weekend!

So tell me…who do you want to see voted out of BB12 tonight?

Peace, BBBlogger

PS: some of the drama has started to really get going in the house. You may still want to try the Big Brother 12 live feeds for free. If you are interested just hit the banner at the top or bottom of this post! Thanks for your support!

What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas…Someone Should Have Told Rachel!

by BBBlogger on August 11, 2010

After weeks in the Big Brother house, if there are any secrets left in Rachel’s Vegas World I’d be shocked! She’s pretty much exposed her corner of Sin City in its entirety and she hasn’t placed it in the most positive of lights. Personally, I think she really works at Circus, Circus since she dresses like a clown and behaves like a carny! Big Brother…please do the fans a favor and burn her “I’m a Hot Mess” pancake shirt!

I didn’t think that Ragan & Britney could stoop much lower than they did Monday night with the endless, vile Brenchel bashing, but it continued into yesterday afternoon. All four feeds were on Ragan, Britney, Enzo and Hayden in the backyard comfortably participating in the Brenchel Bash Fest 2010.

Enzo, aka “meow meow” purred a few comments, but it was mostly Britney in all her educational wisdom “clinically diagnosing” Rachel and Brendon – expressing empathy for “other” people who are “socially challenged” and “emotionally unstable” but not them because they play dirty! Talk about over-thinking, over-rehashing and accusing others of what you’re doing as you’re doing it! It was actually some much needed comic relief in the Big Brother house!

Under the “Did I hear you correctly?” file, Hayden said, “I don’t think it’s good to get into a relationship in this environment! This isn’t the environment to try and find a girlfriend!” Really Hayden? Really. Yes, folks, he said it and I spit my Big Brother baby food all over my laptop! And that was before Brendon trapped him into a conversation about what he calls “Operation Keep Rachel” where Brendon is trying to be more hated than Rachel to get voted out. No matter who goes, at least we won’t have to hear the “Brendon and I’s” anymore!

Late last night the house erupted into another Big Brother fight that started with Rachel approaching Ragan and Britney in the hammock. Ragan was being honest with Rachel, explaining her behavior in the house. Of course behind her back, he’s completely vicious, and gets just as personal about her as she does about him, but that’s supposed to be beside the point. The conversation breaks down when Rachel pouts and leaves.

Now…follow closely…Kathy shows up, to ask what happened since she saw Rachel “crying,” then enter Brendon defending Rachel’s “honor,” calling out Ragan, swearing and raising his voice at him, Kathy walks away, Britney laughs in his face, gets out of the hammock and makes fun of his “neanderthal” walk. Brendon corrects her pronunciation of “neanderthal” and spews nasty comments to Britney about her boyfriend, Nick, which sets her off even more and Brendon goes back in the house. Britney starts crying saying she was “attacked” and everyone “hugs it out” with her. Folks, it was ridiculous. Don’t feel sorry for Britney, just because she’s cute doesn’t mean she’s not equally hateful. She incites this stuff just as much as everyone else. You really get to know these people watching the feeds and BBAD and that’s not always a Martha Stewart “good thing.”

My advise to the remaining HGs is move on from the Brenchel drama since one of them is leaving tomorrow, and work on their own strategies for the forthcoming weeks, which Matt is already doing. They are spending too much time and energy hating on Brenchel and not enough time on the game! And rehashing their bashing gets old really quickly when there are bigger fish sticks to fry.

At this point in the game, I’d like to see either Enzo or Lane win HOH. Lane, especially, has done a good job flying low and keeping a cool head which is easy to do when it’s constantly stuck in the fridge. No matter who stays from the Brenchel team, chances are they will be the next voted out. And aren’t we all looking forward to those “good bye” messages?! =^^=

Is Rachel’s fate sealed?

by BBBlogger on August 10, 2010

I can already hear the music Big Brother will play when Rachel walks out the door. It’ll either be something dark and tragic or something with horns and whistles. Britney decided – no spoiler alert here – that she would not use the POV on either Rachel or Brendon. Look, we all knew she wouldn’t use it, she was never even on the fence about it. Her game would be ruined if she were to risk saving either of them.

Apparently Brendon pulled an “Andrew” with some transparently bad acting during the POV ceremony yesterday in a feeble attempt to get voted out and keep Rachel in the game. I guess her “knight in shining armor” was ready to fall on his sword for his Merlot haired maiden. What Team Showmance didn’t know was that Matt had already hatched a plan to pretend to sway the votes in Rachel’s favor, thus voting out Brendon. Poor Brendon…his speech was all for show…mance and played directly into Matt’s hands.

Meanwhile, back on the pillows, our fearsome twosome brag to one another about their brilliant strategy and how they just pulled one over on everyone in the house! Camera returns to the other HGs…they’re all on board with Matt, already planning to make Rachel feel as though she is staying in the house, and that they’ve all decided to vote out Brendon.

This is all for their personal amusement to see the look on Rachel’s face Thursday when Julie exclaims, “By a vote of six to zero…Brendon…(camera on Rachel as she tries to hide a smile) you are safe…I’m sorry Rachel, you have been evicted from the Big Brother house.” That’s when the Season 8 Dustin OMG look comes on her face, green glitter comes out of her ears and she hugs Brendon, ignores everyone else, and stomps out in her 5″ Ph.D. assigned platforms. And I’m pretty sure she’ll have something nasty to say as she walks out the door. I mean, after all, the cameras will be rolling.

Okay, maybe it won’t be exactly like that, but there’s little doubt she’s leaving the Big Brother house on Thursday, so stock up on your own snacks and Saboteur Snuggies because her departure could be the best ride so far this season!

Hayden, Enzo and Kathy seem to be keeping a very low profile with Kathy spending a lot of time in the have-not bedroom alone. This cast is interesting in many ways, but even they’re bored with their own season of Big Brother and the predictability of each other! There really haven’t been many surprises and the Saboteur twist hasn’t resulted in much more than something for them to watch besides Peter Parker, their pet spider who has sadly and mysteriously disappeared. Speculation continues on whether he crawled off to another reality show or just went a bar. My guess is he threw himself down the pool drain.

We only have two more days of Team Showmance folks! What do you think Brendon’s game will be once Rachel is gone? Do you think he’ll even be able to create an alliance for himself? Will he be the next to go? And who would you like to see as the new HOH? =^^=
