"Sam is so not a genius"

Does anyone else agree with me? I never thought Sam to be a genius, yet, I'm tired of everyone saying he is. C'mon, even Trump is calling him a genius! Since when is unorthordox considerd genius?

I'm not sure how Sam acts on a daily basis, but I would not want to work with the producer's personna of him.

Seriously, I think Sam is bipolar.

Maybe more manic (a LOT more manic) than depressive - but the depressed side did show when he needed all those pep talks from Troy, when he fell asleep on the floor in the middle of crunch time on their project, & again when he refused to move from the door till someone "greeted" him. (LOL & WTF?!! Earth to Sam, your mom is not in residence here, and in spite of what she told you, the sun does not rise and set in your *ss.)

He's probably very bright, but w/o common sense, it doesn't matter.


OK, can we get rid of Ponderosa now?

I got the biggest laugh when Sam was sitting by the door talking about not moving until someone greeted him.....
I am pretty sure he said my mom greats me every night when I come home. I thought, ok, you are still living at home and competing on this show.....I wonder if Trump had to hire a babysitter for him when the others were not around to watch him?

OMG me too - I was cracking up laughing - my family doesnt greet me at the door. Anyway - they did not greet the other players that returned either. I am so glad that he is gone. I do think that DT used him correctly. Get people to watch the show - but know when to cut him loose as to not piss off your TV audience. If DT had kept him I think many people would have stopped to watch as it would have been obvious he was just there for ratings.

lol Sam is in his own little world. He does crave attention. He made the biggest deal about Mr. Trump shaking his hand. I bet he didn't wash it for a week after that.

I saw Sam on the today show ths morning post firing. He is a total tool. He proposed to his girlfriend and sh eaccepted. She seems way too normal for him. And she was very pretty too. Bee-zarre.

The persona that Sam took on was either going to take him to the top or it would get him fired early on. Being the 3rd person fired answers that question. Sam was hysterical to me! I do, however, think most of it was forced. With so many of the remaining 13 flying under the radar right now, Sam was fun to watch. Was Sam a genius? ... nope, he was just someone hanging it all out there for ours and probably his amusement.

I'd lay odds that Sam has ADHD.

...or, as has been mentioned many times on other threads, that the man is bipolar. I find it hard to believe that he's never been diagnosed--or that he has never followed medical advice! What a whacko if he's not bipolar and that's just him!

I don't know about you, but, I have a feeling that Sam' s life has been a train wreck for most of his life. The outward manifestations of Bipolar II, III and ADHD diseaes are similar in many respects; however, Bipolar illness, by its' very nature is considered "treatment resistant." Anyway, I apologize for digressing. Regardless of Sam's diagnosis, think organic brain damage may be the real problem. Donald Trump may have sensed that and went easy on him.
