PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
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."

"Mike: Dumber than Marcellas?" |
We all know the story behind Marcellas' eviction (I mean his BB3 eviction, not the Marjealous eviction in All-Stars.) For those who don't: Marcellas made the final five in BB3, the HOH nominated him for eviction, and he won the POV. At this time, this was the first Golden POV; prior to this, nominated houseguests could not use the POV to remove themselves from the block (for reasons only the producers understand.) But this was the first Golden POV, and Marcellas had the chance to take himself off the block.Well, needless to say, he didn't. For reasons known only to him, he opted not to use the veto, and he was evicted in a tiebreaking vote. As Robbbbbbbb from Survivor might say, "Doy-ee-oy-ee-oy." Julie even whacked him on the head with a cue card! That's rough, considering that cue card was probably the only brain she had at the time. Fast-forward five years to BB8. Evil Dicque puts up Jen, his arch-nemesis, and Kail, whom he really wants out. He went into the POV competition intending to keep the nominations the way they were, as any HOH would (who isn't actively trying to backdoor someone.) So out comes Mike, who seems to do everything in his power to get under the HOH's skin, such to the point where he's actually willing to nominate Mike in place of Jen. Evil makes this known, and Mike continues to aggravate him anyway! Jen comes down, Mike goes up, and Mike goes out in a 7-2 vote. He went from a solid player who was looking at being either a boring juror or a boring finalist to someone who was sent home early. Maybe he decided he didn't want to flush his entire summer down the toilet? I still say Marcellas is dumber. All he had to do was say, "I use the Veto on myself." Lisa probably goes up in his place, and she might even go home. At the very least, Marcellas has the chance to save his own skin. Mike? Yeah, he was aggravating. His only flaw was that he was loyal to the point of being dumber than worm farts. Maybe he is dumber than Marcellas.

I don't think Mike's move was necessarily stupid. If anything, it was ill-timed and poorly executed. I think it was important for someone to stand-up to D!ck and show that his intimidation tactics are not always effective. I think Mike's major mistake was to remain quiet for 3 weeks. Like Dustin said in his goodbye message, he only knew 4 things about Mike. No one really knew him and therefore, no one had any incentive to keep him.
