Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

So we get to decide who's bed Eric should pretend to sleep walk into? Is that something that affects the game? Gee CBS! Well at any rate, this morning, Eric attempted to crawl into bed with Joe.

I've said this before, but this whole "America's Player" twist would have worked really well with someone like Janelle, because she had charisma and the fans were invested in her. But when it comes to Eric, no one cares because he's dull. He's so uniteresting that I don't even care to want him evicted because there are more obnoxious personalities that I want to see off the show (Amber, I'm looking at you!).

Awww, I guess I am the dissenter. I think Eric has been a great sport. He went into this game with a strategy and CBS totally messed with it by assigning HIM to be AP. I would be soooo mad if I finally made it in and then had this crapola dumped on me! He doesn't want to be AP anymore than you wanted him to be so!So I am cutting poor Eric a break...he is trying to be enthusiastic, he has not once yet said "I will NOT do that, screw you America"...he has gone with the lame twist and has tried to make lemonade out of lemons, in my opinion. Jessica wasn't even on his radar, but he made his pitch for her rather vague and Jen totally thought about it for a minute or three...gotta give him credit for that! And do ya think he wanted to crawl in bed with Joe??? EEEEK! Like I said, I think he is being a pretty good sport and also I like having a vote even if it's stupid stuff we get him to do.

What a bunch of doorknobs (not America in general, just the idiots that voted for Jessica).I think she got the majority of the votes because she was pretty mean about her comments reagarding her "enemy" Carol. Remember during Carol's 'meet and greet' with Julie last week Carol was pretty generous to Jessica in her comments. Then they showed Jessica being catty and pretty cruel in her comments about Carol. Carol was really shocked. In that the voting closed at midnight that night, I think Jessica's comments and actions were the freshest in the voters minds. Also, I can't imagine too many people voting. I didn't bother turning my computer on that night just to vote for something that probably wasn't going to impact the game. It wasn't worth it to me. I'd love to see the numbers on how many votes were actually cast. And as regards to Eric? Eh, he's still pretty lame. Haven't warmed up to him at all. Is he being a good sport? Maybe, but it could be that he was told you will be AP or you don't go in. It's obvious he would say yes. My real test for Eric is if he gets HOH and WE get to decide who he puts up for eviction. That would rock. I would vote until my fingers bled or my computer crashed if that happened. And wow...I totally didn't mean to go on and on and on about America's Player. And yet I did.

LAST EDITED ON 07-17-07 AT 03:26 PM (EST)Okay, Josh and Augie, thanks for the explanation and I take back my idiot accusations. I agree that although Eric is stuck in a crappy situation, he has absolutely no charisma at all. They need a more charismatic person to "play America." This guy is trying, but it comes across as forced and somewhat patronizing, like he's all "okay, America, what stupid thing are you going to make me do now." This twist is so dull that it would take a special kind of person to pull it off, and Eric is not that person. You'd need someone who is going to be really funny to watch, like Chicken George. Well, not Chicken George, but like Chicken George. Rolly made this.

Actually, I think Eric is lucky to be America's Player. The players basically have a 1 in 15 chance of winning $500K, but Eric gets $10K for each AP challenge he completes, so he'll be walking out of the house with at least $100K, whether he wins or loses, plus the chance to win evey more.

I thought he only got $10,000 for every 5 tasks that he completes..........Anybody know for sure which way it is? It's still good money, no matter what.

You are correct. He gets $10,000 for every five tasks he completes. And he can be voted out at any time, so as of now, he has earned no money.He told a story to Kail (1), Joes Bed thing (2) and Pushed for Jessica (3). So he has no money so far. Tonight will be another task and then again on Thursday. So if he makes them both he has banked his first $10,000. If he wins HOH next week, that will carry him through almost another $10,000. But I expect the tasks to get worse. Like kissing people, etc. I know America will vote to make him kiss a guy or something. Shocking! simply Shocking!
It is astonishing how foolish humans can be in groups, especially when they follow their leaders without question - States: The Bene Gesserit View. All States Are an Abstraction.

Come on no charisma at all????Seriously who on this cast has more charisma then Eric? I like the guy. He is alright for me. As for picking Jessica....thanks for calling me a doorknob. We all vote for different reasons. My reason was to get the people I dislike the most out. I can not stand her so if I can influence her exit that would be great. You know that ** will say when her time comes....at least I lasted longer than Carol. As for feeling sorry for Eric. Don't. If there is another All-Stars he is guarenteed to be on the cast. he could be America's Player or he could be some forgotten also run years from now.

LAST EDITED ON 07-18-07 AT 07:19 PM (EST)I think Eric's only been successful on 2 Tasks 1. Story to Kail 2. Vote for Carol Unsuccessful:
3. Jessica for nomination - twice 4. Sleepwalk into Joe's bed, apparently......
