Maybe team red discusses strategy more? In the start I thought team black was going to own this season. 3 - Now Taj and whats his name, wonder if they are trading info on Exile Island?

Thats kind of cool and it would be something if Tajs plan go through and they actually form the secret 4 way alliance from both teams!! And oh yeah, I forgot to add how funny it is to watch Coach-Douche get all pissy when they didnt want him to be there leader. Man, the cahunas on this guy lol. Its funny how he just THOUGHT he would automatically be picked and his constant whining about everything is actually fun to see. I hope he doesnt win, but I actually would like to see him stick around for awhile. He keeps it interesting if nothing else.

I dont really like Tyson, now that he has now joined the Church of Coach and has surrendered himself to that idiot, but it WAS funny when he said it. Sadly he was dead serious and it looks like not only is he now assistant coach, he is turning to assistant douche as well.

Too bad about Jerry, he seemed like a decent guy. I think if he wouldn't have been he could have been a darkhorse. But it does lead to one of the more frustrating things I've found about Survivor. Though to be fair I did miss a few in the middle. But I wish for once a black male on the show to do well. I hope that doesn't sound bad.

Originally Posted By WorldDisney I cant believe you want a black man to win Dar. I dont want them to win again, EVER!!!!!! Dont like black guys.
Originally Posted By DAR Like I said I missed a few in the middle. And WD what I meant was when I watched the show, I just got back on. I'd see someone like GC from last season just up and out quit. That just floored me.

Originally Posted By avro_imagineer ^^ Lets see a good natured US Sargent. Yep could have seen a lot of good tele out of Jerry. I'd love to see a C-List Celebrity Deathmatch between Jerry and Coach. Of course Jerry would win by an isle

Originally Posted By avro_imagineer Yeah, but see I look at it differently, what's the most I'll get out of her? Not much. But hey she may very well be the next on the chopping block. Mama K. Heh! Oh and how close the challenges were. But I must admit I was amazed at the catch up in the first one. Go Taj! Taj and Brendan (I Think it's Brendan) are starting to win me over.
Originally Posted By WorldDisney Well, I know I'm in the minority but I was a little sad to see Sandy leave. I dont know, she just comes off as real and a good person. Not saying I want to marry her lol, just that she DID work hard and really tried to fit in. Obviously she rubbed some people the wrong way and I dont live with her, so of course all that is 100% valid on that end. End of the day, we see each of these people for only a few minutes every episode and not the 24/7 person the others see and dont have to physically be there. That said, she seem like she was more worthy of staying instead of Sydney. And I dont get the beauty thing either? Yes, she's attractive and I certainly wouldnt kick her out of bed lol, but I dont think she's drop dead gorgeous or anything. I see girls prettier walking down the street everyday. And I'm not trying to put her down, of course she's pretty, I just dont see why anyone would drool over her,thats all. And the flirting thing, I dont understand how guys seem to fall for that every season lol. Where does that get them exactly? I mean, they are away from 'civilization' for an entire month, they get that buggy eyed for a girl that quickly? I guess I have to be there . Anyway, decent episode and looking forward to see if Taj's secret alliance can hold. The previews makes it look like its already crumbling before it starts, but I hope they can at least make it though the merge with it. Time will tell. And coach-douche (this is the nickname he will get for the rest of the season ) and Tyson are becoming the worst people this season. Tysons crazy remarks are starting to seem more for attention then anyhing, but either way I like him less and less the more he talks. Coach-douche just has a god complex that wont quit. It was nice though that he willing to 'concede' the leadership role to Brenden though, but the man is a piece of work overall. How do people like this get married???
