I don't think Sash has been as UTR so far as numerous other F3ers have been. We got a good zinger from him during the Shannon rant TC, and it makes sense that some of the early boots get more attention this early in the game (it's the Jimmy Johnson Show and Fabio's in the house!). Think back to past champions such as Tina and Vecepia, or other finalists such as Cassandra - they either didn't get any air time early but gained as the game went along or were simply invisible the whole time because they didn't make for good TV.

Sure. There's still another 10 or 11 episodes to go.

I think that Fabio is doing a beautiful job of diverting attention away from whatever real game-playing skills he has, as I'm sure he must have if he gets to the end. People don't perceive him as a threat at this point in the game so he's "harmless" to keep around, and I wouldn't be surprised if he starts to play the game for real when there are a half-dozen left in the game.
Great topic you've started, OFG!
