That Michael guy. He was a beast, he still had the greatest moment in survivor history when he slaughtered a wild pig, butchered it and set up his tribe for food.

If I remember he was pretty much untouchable in the challenges.

Then he past out in the fire. I was cheering for him then all of a sudden that happened. He was awesome.

Jeff said last night that this was only the second 7-0 vote......does anyone remember what the first??

I wanna say it was Earl, but could be wrong.


edit.....Yep, I just did some fact checking and it was....he got all 9 jury votes that season.....but Christ, anyone could have beaten Dreamz especially after his Yau Man incident.

I think my favorite all time Survivor moments were the very first season when trucker Sue went ape $hit on kelly, and in the australian out back i can't remember their names but the black chick and the white chick yelling at each other about the chickens.
I have to say tho, out of all the survivors i don't think i've hated a player more than i hated coach. I love how he declined the lie detector test from Survivor but, when out and conveniently got his own done. I'm pretty sure i would've been physically removed from that show for punching him in the throat several times while sleeping if i were in that camp.

I have to say Coach is maybe one of my favorite "reality show" contestants of all time. Not because I liked him mind you (I actually hated him), but the laughter he brought was just priceless. Every week I sat in anticipation of him making something up even crazier. I still laugh at the thought of pygmy's eating his ass.

Brilliantly played game by JT. I can't believe nobody saw that coming. I suppose that's easy to say when you're watching at home. It just seemed like every week somebody new was suckling at his never losing tit.

I don't why the hate on Coach so much, players like him and johnny fairplay are what make the show interesting, Its boring seeing people act all normal.

I have to say that Tyson from this season is tied with Omarosa for most irritating reality tv people I have ever seen. I hated the scrawny and literally muted the tv or fast forwarded through him speaking during the last couple episodes (unless my wife had the remote).

I got to a point where if he wasn't voted off next, I probably would have stopped watching.

Yes, Tyson was irritating for sure, but, thats exactly how i felt about Coach. Yes, his stories were ridiculously far fetched and totally made me laugh, but it was the ridiculousness of them that made me want to punch him in the throat..."i've never told anyone this story before" ok, so, now would be a good time to say it on friggin national tv. idiot.
.....pulling strings to get a military helicopter to drop you in the middle of the amazon....sigh....

It's interesting what irks some people and not others. I found him to be among my favorite reality personalities. I'm not sure I've ever laughed harder or more consistently at anybody on a show like this. I was a huge fan.

What is it about degrees in music that turn people into extreme ######bags?

Fairplay was a prick and a snake and he knew it and he played up that angle and he was great at it.....probably the best, but Coach just had a screw loose and was pretty damn creepy.......His lectures about honor and loyalty were just so ridiculous, I couldn't help but hate him. It was just too much. He was playing an honorable game, but he went overboard with it. Fairplay was the man because he cherished the role of being the biggest snake in the show's history and he almost won the million dollars doing it.

Coach was definitely entertaining and part of me was upset when he was kicked off, because guys like him and Tyson made this season interesting. Without them, this could have been one of the worst seasons ever.
