michel, glad to see you are still around. I was getting worried. Haha... you probably think the same of me.

I see your point on Edna, who did tell a pathetic lie to Christine and then couldn't wriggle out of it. I guess, besides the obvious reasons, I am giving her a lot of credit for befriending Coach when everyone else was giving him the cold shoulder. It took guts to do that, and it has ultimately paid off for her. I think she would have easily been in Stacy and Christine's boat if she had not made that move.

If you want an argument, I would say we could debate the merits of Ozzy, who I certainly feel has a lot more to offer the game than a clown like Phillip. Even if he were completely socially and strategically inept, which he isn't, Ozzy is still great at surviving and great at challenges. That is two things better than Phillip, who basically has nothing going for him other than he is a clown.

Sort of the Russell curse that helped bring us Naonka, but if you bring guys like Phillip back solely for just being a crazy character, then you encourage other people to be the biggest fake character possible instead of actually playing the game.
