I don't know why eric didn't use the POV when Jessica was HOH to get out D and D. He is spineless. I think he is scared of Dick

I think it was more trying to honor 'America's' wishes. Except for the voting though, he easily could have made his own decisions. His game was pretty much screwed from the start when he started 'embracing' America's decisions.

The america's player twist is ######ed. I hope they never do this again. eric has watched every BB show and was stoked when he got picked to be a house guest. Then he gets forced to be america's player? that totally screwed up his game. oh well. I hate everyone that is left. i hope no one wins this year

Doesn't Zach look stupid now? He could have gotten Daniele out for sure last eviction by using the veto and now he's targetting them but it's too late. Probably won't work.

I like Zach's play today... but not his speech. That sounded dumb.

He's on to the next round for sure with two of Dick, Daniele and/or Jameka. If he's in a threesome with the Donatos then there is very little chance either of them would stab the other in the back and take Zach to the final two. If he goes to the final three with one of the Donatos and Jameka then everyone is basically playing for themselves with no clear alliances to speak of. Everyone is on even footing.

His HoH speech should have reflected that thinking. Sure, he may be going against his pact with Dick and Daniele to a cerain extent but a this point you gotta do what you gotta do (it's not like Dick and Daniele have never gone back on their word). This way, not only is he being honest but he's giving everyone an equal shot at saving their own hides.

[Prototype]

It didn't matter who Zach nominated... he had no power as HOH... the person with the most power now is POV, regardless who was nominated.

[jolinar of malkshor]

I cant stand Danelle....she thinks she has played the game with so much integrity and is so dumbfounded when someone doesn't keep their word. Yet, she has no problem stabbing others in the back. I would rather Dick win than Danelle and if it is those two I think Dick will win.

[mrdeeds]

I would rather none of them win, but I don't think that will be the case now. ARGHH!

[Flames09]

I think Dick or Zach deserves it. Dick because he was straightforward and noones [female dog] throughout the entire thing, and how Zach got to the end without a single friend or real alliance in the house amazes me..

[flambers]

In my my view Danielle deserves it, whether you like her or hate her. She is the strongest competitor out of the bunch of them. I believe she has 2 HOH and 5 POV. She always seems to win the POV when it counts.

[North East Goon]

I am hoping Zach wins it all, just to see the looks on D&D's faces because they have already proclaimed victory!

I would bet that D&D will be the final two. Dani will win the next HOH.

You're probably right..but it would be hilarious if Zach won the final HOH. I don't know that he'll win either way, but it would be hilarious to see the look on their faces.

[fredr123]

I don't like any of the potential final players but I will go on record as saying I would be less irritated if someone other than Dick and Daniele won the big prize.

Dick made a big splash in the house and was able to pull off a miracle when he was put up with his daughter. He was able to turn the partnership with his daughter into a huge benefit to him in the house. Normally, obvious alliances are targeted from the outset. He managed to make it work.

Daniele has done well in competitions, no doubt. It can't be overlooked, though, how she was able to cruise behind the wide berth her dad commanded in the house and glide by in the slipstream.

Both of the Donatos are as guilty as the next person for making choices benefiting themselves above all others and for going back on their word when it suited them. Dick's having problems with Zach going against his promise this week and Dani's had plenty of opportunity to whine about how much she hates the liars in the house.

Zach's doing the smartest thing he could possibly do right now. Despite what Dick might think, bringing the Donatos into the final three with him does not help Zach out one bit. Good on him for looking ahead in the game and figuring that bit out.

Worse case scenario for Zach right now is that he gets third place and gets punted on Thursday. That's pretty much his worst case scenario if he were to stay true to his agreement with Dick and Daniele.

[sadora]

Zach's an idiot. If anyone doesn't deserve to be there it's Zach. He made it through the game with no real friends or alliances, but he was also too quick to ride on the Donato's coat tail. Jameka, all I can say about this dunce is that anyone who is too stupid to base their game plan on "God" and faith, as if the guy has nothing better to do than to worry about the fate of reality show contestants, deserves nothing more than a slap in the face to wake her up from this dilusion.

Dick & Danielle, love them or hate them, played their asses off to stay in the game. Dick is vulgar, disgusting and arrogant, basically the man's a genius. I rather see this guy or his daughter win because they have been a force to be reckoned with throughout the entire game. Hopefully one of them D's wins the power of veto, sending Jameka home and leaving Zach to deal with the Donato's alone. If he can survive that then I'll change my opinion of him, otherwise he'll remain an idiot.

[fredr123]

Idiot or not, Zach did at least two smart things this season:
1. Ride the Donatos' coattails (for a little while at least); and
2. Put up both Dick and Daniele this week for eviction.

Everytime Daniele says something about Zach breaking his word, someone should smack her upside the head with a video of her promising Kail that if she threw HoH that Kail wouldn't be put up. Same poop. While I hated Daniele for doing that, it was probably a smart move on her part... just like Zach's nominating both Donatos this week.

[VANFLAMESFAN]

The Zach and Jameka prayer fest was so pathetic, it made me laugh though.

I hope Zach wins the HoH, so a Donato isnt guaranteed to win the 500 grand. D and D are making me ill and I used to be their biggest fans. Daniele's scream when she won the veto last night alone made me wanna crawl thru the screen and kick her in the box.

This is shaping up nicely... my two favourite players still in the game playing against the biggest goof in the game. Zach just rubs me the wrong way... Daniele's a hottie, but I hope Dick wins... definitely my favourite player throughout the entire season.

***SPOILERS AT BOTTOM IN WHITE***

You must not be watching the live feeds....Daniele may be hot but her whining and constant princess act makes her much less attractive over time. Dick would be someone I'd route for most times but he's such an overbearing, loudmouthed jerk to everyone else that I can't stand him - especially after watching the POV comp live last night and hearing some of the filth he was spouting.

Zach is a bit socially challenged but he was smart enough to lay low and let everyone else underestimate him all game long and made just enough deals to get to where he is. Plus when it counted most he worked hard and won some necessary comps.

And for what it's worth, Zach won last night some 8hrs into the POV comp - Dick just physically wasn't able to hold on any longer and it was a close thing between the 2 of them altho Zach looked to be more comfortable the whole way along. Both looked very spacey and hypothermic when they got off their carrots and were really done in by the whole event and how long it lasted. For once Daniele was fairly decent and took care of both of them, making them tea, soup, grilled cheese sandwiches and hot water so they'd feel better.

[Qwerty]

Spoiler Question:

Any idea when Danielle dropped out of the competition?
