"live one's life"

That is the main difference between us. This isn't life, it is a game. Not only are people acting differently because they understand it's a game but also they are edited in a way to shape a story. Not as much in BB as in Survivor but still the live feeds show us that what we see on TV is not the exact truth.

Even pro athletes playing a game do not behave the same way in real life. Sure, there are many Mike Tysons out there but they are exceptions. More often, the toughest linemen are gentle in real life. Some of the biggest rivalries on the field translate to friendships once the game is over. A game is a game, nothing more.

"You think Matt competing in that HOH would have been a non-factor?"

Absolutely. Matt won two identical "competitions" where his small feet were key. Your idol didn't show me any athletic abilities at all. In a race, I saw how fast Hayden really is. If the challenge wasn't rigged, if all lanes were equal, Matt would have been a non-factor.

"And Ragan is a slam dunk POV winner even with Matt competing in that POV???"

Weren't you the one praising Ragan for memorizing the events? (even if others probably did so but weren't shown) Ragan could very well have won but, if Matt had won, it was simply another inversion of moves, Ragan going at 6, Matt at 5.

"I'm not sold on Ragan and Matt going up"

Who cares. Even if you're in denial, Matt was a goner.

"If Hayden is sent to the Jury House, then yes they'll know. If not, Hayden will still deny it. If he makes F2, depending on who sits next to him, the greedy lying hypocrite could still get away with it."

They think Matt cleaned up. Matt finally has nothing to lie for anymore so he should be able to convince them he didn't get anything. They know Brendon, Enzo and Britney didn't get anything and Lane has credibility for admitting the phone call. Can you subtract and find who is left?

Also, the biggest greedy, lying hypocrite this season was your idol who used his wife and a fake illness to get sympathy. Don't you remember that?

"NOOOO way ANY plan Ragan cooked up would have ANY prayer of working if he had to involve Brendon."

So it was better to sulk alone in his bedroom? That's what my sister used to do when she was 12. Talk about being pro-active!! You sure know how to pick your number 1!!!!!!

"AHHH...so now being loyal is being dumb"

Matt wasn't loyal, he never was. Didn't you hear him tell Julie he was trying to play both sides? Or do you just hear what you want to hear? He was counting on the Brigade being dumb enough to save him. They weren't. Your idol's grand schemes were based on the dumb assumption that the Brigade hadn't noticed he was playing only for numero uno and trying to use everyone in the house. A very satisfying ending.

Ils sont fous, ces Romains!
