LAST EDITED ON 03-27-03 AT 06:37 PM (EST)As much as I have liked Christy up till now...she appears to be a sheep.
Baaaaaa, she gave up immunity to Deena, who (Christy must have known) didn't need it, when - due to her great friends Butch & Roger - she (Christy) may well have needed it. Sure, Chris, roll over & play dead. Show proper submission to the already-cocky steamrolling uber-Deena. Good idea. It's not like she's gonna try and walk all over you or anything.
In terms of her votes, Christy seems to do whatever Deena and/or the other women tell her to do - in spite of her friendship with Butch (who also dissed her, by voting against her).
Baaaaa.
Christy isn't a sheep. Amber was a sheep. Jan was a sheep. Heidi is a sheep. Christy is simply an underdog. Nobody is alligning with her. She's being used for her vote, when convenient for others. So, yes, when asked to vote with a group, she joins them in an attempt to get into an alliance... what other choice does she have? Deena (and whatever other women) may tell her who they are voting for and ask her to join them. It is obvious that the only 2 TC's that Christy was at with men, were ones in which the men didn't clue her into their voting plan.
Further, she by no means "rolled over and played dead" at the Challenge... huh-looo... that was Jenna/Heidi/Roger who did that! Anyone who thinks that Rob and Deena are cocky, ought to examine why someone would willingly jump out of the IC so early... now, that's cocky (unless it's an accident (ie. Rudy, Kelly G. or you just physically can't do it anymore). Geesh, at least Jenna and Heidi really don't have targets on them... but, Roger's leap of shame reminded me of Jeff Varner jumping in for a tablespoon of Jiffy...
Now, as for Christy and Deena... they lasted through that rain storm... and through 8 people jumping off. It was down to the 2 of them, and so many times the last 2 endurance people make a deal between each other (... T-bird/Clarence did the R/P/S... Neleh/Vee made the deal that the winner would take the loser to F2... and Brian/Clay also actually made a deal where the winner would take the loser to F2 {though this wasn't shown}). So, Christy didn't just "give it up" as did everyone else who jumped prior to her... if Deena had lost that gamble, *she* would have taken the plunge, and Christy would have won. Both girls were willing to take the 50/50 chance on the R/P/S which decided their fate in 10 seconds, as opposed to waiting it out, which would have decided their 50/50 fate in (unknown)minutes/hours? (Nobody knows who was weaker at that point and nobody knows who would have won if they stood around forever.) And, who knows who the B/R/D alliance would have targeted... perhaps Heidi? perhaps Deena? Either way, maybe Christy would have been invited into their alliance?
