Big Brother 17: Grrrrr…

Well said Lisa I agree with every word. Why does Van let Sheli run her hoh. Austin is so dumb he does not want to win the money he just wants to make it to Jury to be with Liz who is not into him. If you are not there to win then leave. If Van back doors Jackie then I hope it comes back to bite her. I wish the other side of the house would wake up and start playing and winning other wise this season is a bust for me.

I like the 3 noms idea. I’d also like to see some gameplay that reflects intelligent thought, instead of whatever it is these hamsters are doing.

Get Austin out of the house before Jury. I would like to see both Twins make it into the house just as Austin is saying bye bye.

Austin and Liz….giving me horrible flashbacks of Caleb and Amber! I hope that they do backdoor him before jury! Go team J-Mac!

I would like to see Austin go. He’s super creepy, and that beard in a ponytail makes me want to hurl. Jackie is my second least favorite. She has no personality. All she seems to care about is her luxurious hair. I would just love to see Meg and Johnny Mac win HOH. Or Steve. Shelli running this game is ridick and Clay is her healer.

LOL.. meant I”m ROOTING for Johnny Mac .. not ROTTING lol. (typo)

Can’t read all yet but as gross as that bush is on Austin’s face, Liz should tell him..YOUR BEARD GROSSES ME OUT. Then see if he shaves it for her… if he does it shows he’ll back her UP. I don’t want him mauling her but I know once he’s gone, the twins will soon be voted out. And inwant ShellClay or Clayshell to go off into the sun set and out of bb.

I wonder how much BB paid Britney last week to say how much she loves the cast this season. She’s a good liar but not that good.

I don’t care who goes home. Why??? At this point in the game I always care. Only person u enjoy watching is Jason. I laugh at his voice and what he says. He reminds me of a housewife from the 60’s. I can just see him with horn rimmed glasses and a cigarette hanging off the corner of his mouth talking about…..that slit down the street.

Slut not *slit
Bahahahaha

Vanessa will be making big waves this week when she back doors Austin, no make that Jackie, but wait, what about Becky since she talks with Jackie? No it has to be Jason because he lies. Or will Vanessa reveal her surprise factor at the Veto ceremony – whatever that is?

Correct me if I am wrong, as my memory’s a bit fuzzy, but wasn’t there a season a few years ago where there *was* 3 people nominated at one time? And, if one was saved, either by winning the veto, or someone using it on them, then there wasn’t a renom and one of the 2 left was the one who went homeI wish I could remember when this was, lol. It was a few years back is all I can recall.

I am sure we won’t find out anything tonight that we don’t already know, thanks to all of the delicious spoilers! It does make for a rather boring Sunday night in the BB house. Then we have to wait until Wednesday to see who gets backdoor’d even by then we will already know! So, I guess our only surprise will be the vote on Thursday. However, there has been no upset there so far! So, why are we watching???? BECAUSE WE ARE ADDICTED!!!! And because we love our BBBloggers!! 🙂 Time to fix some Chicken la Orange with Jasmine rice!! Yum! 🙂 Later

My hope is that Vanessa’s big surprise will be to back door Shelli at the last moment and become the house hero and finally earn some respect in the game by dethroning the Queen. Dreaming, of course. But it could happen.

Just woke from my nap. Thanks everyone. I want grubby Austin gone. I would love to see both Twins able to play. I think they did a good job. Got to go help Sissy with dinner

Thanks for the summary & analysis Lisa Marie. Even when we don’t completely agree, I appreciate your thoughtfulness and reasoning.

I definitely 100% agree that Shelli & Clay are a) a massive threat to everyone else b/c they’re in a couple, and b) completely annoying. If Jason was half as good a player of Big Brother as he is a watcher of Big Brother, he’d be organizing the other floaters (Meg, JohnnyMac, Jackie, Steve, James, Becky) into an alliance to boot out Shlay & Vanessa.

It will never cease to amaze me how those in a power couple, upon hearing that others want to evict them, are immediately shocked/flabbergasted/enraged. “How could they *possibly* want to get rid of US?? Inconceivable!!!” Like, don’t you get that being in a couple automatically creates a target on your back? Why be upset about it – that’s the risk of a showmance. Just keep playing, jeez.

Like many others, at the beginning I felt like Liz sort of brought her problems with Austin on herself. But at this point, she’s in a tough spot: she clearly wanted a flirt-mance only, and he’s obviously taken it to another level with the ‘love’ talk. It seems like the situation has gotten out of her control. She can’t really ‘break up’ with him, because he would probably freak out. Also, it would be very dangerous for her game. It’s in her best interest for him to be evicted, so she can form a power couple with Julia.

What is up with Austin’s blue nail polish? It adds nothing to “his look” which I am so sick of! Why does he think he looks good without wearing a shirt! Back to the nail polish, who does think he is,Evel Dick? I know Dick’ s polish was black but I just don’t get the point of either. At least Evel Dick played a heck of a game! And Austin’s game is? oh yeah his alter ego Judas and getting Liz! Is he gone yet?

I agree with all of you! The only people playing this game are shlay and Vanessa. I love the Hamptons comparison! And Liz’s nasally valley girl voice drives me crazy but I like the twins. Why are the floaters allowing a showmance couple and now they know about the twins- will they continue to float?

So true, Junksies!!!

Junksie, it is a Avatar. You will see “Add an avatar to your comments” to the right of the screen.

Wow! What a night of Big Brother! Remember when the HG’s were actually shocked when they were nominated? Some would be so upset they would cry and pout all week! No more surprises! We not only knew who were going to be nominated, the nominated houseguests knew also. … in fact, they offered themselves up on the block!!! How crazy is that? As much as I would love to see Austin go, I wouldn’t mind seeing Clay go just to see his reaction as well as Shelli’s! They thought they had it all figured out! Clay and Becky would win the BOTB, Jackie would be HOH and Vanessa wouldn’t get any bad blood on her little hands!! Ha! Ha! Ha! James tried so hard to throw the competition!! Good job Liz!! Tonight turned out better than I thought it would. I enjoyed watching all of the negotiating going on! There’s a slim chance we might have some excitement for a change! Where there’s life there’s hope!!
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I detested last year’s Big Brother. Mainly because of Frankie! We thought Jeff was nasty, he was a saint compared to some of the things that Frankie did! (which was pretty much covered up by CBS … he should have been kicked out the back door!!) IMHO!!! Well, I just might make it to bed before midnight! Goodnight bloggers. I enjoyed all of your comments, as usual! Later! 🙂

Astra, we all love Twins. Smile!

@ Tendr I agree w/you! LOL Jason does also remind me of a Jewish Grandmother! I also want Shelli and Clay OUT and I want the twins to stay..but for the houseguests..allowing them both in is really, really stupid beyond words. @ Jeanne…especially identical twins..people do seem to love them. Maybe it’s more of a fascination..2 people with identical DNA..but different personalities..and the twins are very cute and likeable this season. I STILL enjoy Austin tormenting Liz tho..HAHA! Hey..who knows..maybe he will grow on her and she may end up really liking him! Stranger things have happened

Please all of you in this Blog please pray that Jason does not go out the door.
He is the only one who is telling the truth about DA . Austin with his blatin lies.
Austin did say he wants Julia out so he can have Liz all to himself.

If Van keeps him I will loose any recepct for her in this game.
All her holy than thou about someone lying and he is the biggest one in the house.
And of all things Liz voted to keep Jeff so the little twit is lying along with Judas.

Vanessa is so concerned with people lying to her yet is she not lying about her career? Just wondering.

Plus isn’t the point of big brother the scheming and lying?

Sherlock Vanessa is still interrogating everyone to find out who won the Last Laugh phone call (Da’Vonne) and who was the last vote for Jeff to stay (Liz). She’s got to be OCD!!!

What made it even funnier was at first I read it as CARBS instead of CRABS!!! No, I’m not dyslexic. LOL OMG…I’ve got the giggles!! Doesn’t take much to entertain me….

Vanessa truly works too hard to come up with ‘reasons’ to put someone on the block that everyone in the house clearly sees through. Just make your decision. Thank heavens she doesn’t play cards like she runs her HoH!!!

From a game point, keeping Austin is the smart play. He’s a number for their side and until the other group is down by a few members it doesn’t make sense to get rid of Austin. No matter what Liz is saying about her showmance, her actions indicate otherwise and if she really doesn’t care for Austin, her actions are cruel – considering he is using the word love. Prematurely, of course, but still…

Meg is cute but I don’t know what she’s done to stay in the game. Jackie is only partially there, Jason is funny but not exactly an overachiever, John’s claim to fame is that he has been nominated as a pawn four times and James and Becky just mill around taking up space. Shelli seems to be working the hardest at keeping herself and Clay safe and Clay seems content with that. Steve? He’s Vanessa’s invisible sidekick and while I’m sure he’s smart and knows the details of the game he’s just not street smart and can’t apply his knowledge to the reality of being in the house.

Yes, Vanessa is lying about her career. She’s a pro poker player. I was thinking wouldn’t it be great if someone found out she was lying about her career, then completely berated her about it, essentially turning the tables on her and giving her a huge dose of karma?

By the way, I was surprised with Davonne being a poker dealer that she had no idea who Vanessa was. Even though she didn’t work in Vegas where Vanessa is, it still seems like she should of known who she was. She’s been a pretty successful female player over the last several years. I’ve dealt in the past as well and play once in a while. Every person in the industry, big or small, almost always know who the more popular pro players are male or female.

Hmmmmmm……..looks like the NEW smileys aren’t working on here. Any idea WHY Lisa??? Maybe this is an older version of WP?? I’m bummed. Thought I’d found my siggy….lol

@Junksies…..most of the smileys DO work. Just use the simpler ones. Do you know how to make them in general?? Because that is what I usually do. Just type them like you would anyplace else.

Well it looks like BB is heating up a little at last. I think Austin should go it looks like he is just there to have a showmance. As for Shelli and Clay PLEASE what a joke everyone know that a power couple only lasts so long before the house breaks them up. If it wasn’t for Shelli I think Clay would already be out of the house. Vanessa is a player and should follow her gut not what the house is saying. I you want to be HOH you have to Man up or Woman up as the case may be. As far as lying about what you do for a living sometimes it makes perfect sense. It sure worked for Derrick last year. I love reading the blog and agree with most everyones thoughts. Lisa Maria thank you for your post alway informative. Can’t wait for Wesnesday night.

Austin has to go because he is a liar and can’t be trusted. He will pull the same crap again, even though he is a number. Vanessa needs an anti anxiety drug to relax because she constantly changes her mind on who to put up. Please Austin go home. I don’t understand why she is targeting Jason or Jackie what did they do to her? I watch BBAD but sometimes it is hard to get all the information. Is Vanessa still trying to figure out who voted for Jeff? Wasn’t it Liz? I can’t remember. Does Liz like Austin or is she playing him like a fiddle? Jackie is annoying and doesn’t say a word, pretty girl with a nice body but nothing of substance in that head of hers. No wonder her and Jeff never went anywhere. Jason is a hoot and Meg thinks this is a frat party. Worse BB season yet. Boring. Send Austin packing. When is the POV ceremony?

@wingnut17 Liz was the third vote for Jeff, but nobody knows except her. I don’t think she has even revealed that to Austin. According to Joker’s, it looks like she will nominate Jason to take Clay’s place on the block. It is possible she will change her mind before today’s ceremony, but it looks like Austin is good for this week. Dammit!

If Vanessa backdoors Jackie she will look like the biggest hypocrite in the house in America’s eyes when it comes to lying. She has on numerous occasions proclaimed those that lie to her die in a sense by being voted out. She flat out told Jackie no chance she would be backdoor-ed and I just don’t seeing it happening. But what do I know? I do know though every time I see her with her big black rimmed glasses on she reminds of that nose and eye-glass toy sort of thing that was around when I was a kid. I am sure most of you over 45 know the item as it was ubiquitous in the 60s and 70s. Getting back to lying I know it is part of the game and everybody does it. But Vanessa has been adamant about honesty and I just don’t see her getting Jackie booted from the game. Why many on this blog don’t like Jackie I don’t get. She seems like a nice girl. She hasn’t said a mean word about anybody that I know of and with the limited exposure she has had I just don’t get why most like to see her go. On another note I sure hope Shelli has no long term romantic/relationship aspirations with Clay. It is not going to happen and the minute the game is over they are over. Clay will be inundated with hot and younger women wanting him and unfortunately while Shelli is attractive she is not stunning and her heart will be crushed just like Judas’ will once he learns he’s been played by Liz.

My two cents totally agree how that poker dealing girl (DA) did not know Vanessa is a professional poker player. Besides Vanessa Selbst and a couple other poker girls Big Brother Vanessa is one of the top KNOWN poker gals on earth. As I mentioned before Vanessa was engaged to this guy Chad Brown I played poker with on numerous occasions. He was well liked in the poker world but unfortunately succumbed to cancer about 2 years ago. It appears shortly thereafter Vanessa had a sexual preference change of heart and now has a girlfriend.

Lastly, be nice to Jackie…I like her.

Whew that’s a lot to take in. Looks like a lot of second guessing to me. I think production wants us uninformed.

Didn’t Clay win the POV?

Nice comments everyone! I have little to add, except I want Austin gone! He creeps me out!! I hope when Julia come into the house she can convince Liz it’s not worth cuddling up to Austin and the twins will abandon him and join forces in the game.

Star, I am going to test out some of the graphics to see if they work: Here goes:
😳 :bear: 😀 ➡ 😎 :burrito: These are supposed to be:
oops. bear. grin. arrow. cool. burrito. 🙂 🙂 Let’s see if it works! 🙂 🙂

Oh, no! I just saw that Jason was put up! What’s going on??? I don’t think I can stomach Austin for one more week! Even though Jason spends most of his time in the backyard smoking like a smokestack, he is kind of interesting and not gross like Austin! Even if Austin removed all of his tattoos, his actions would still turn my stomach! (I have a weak stomach!) 🙂 🙂 😀

I really hate to see Jason go. I hope he will be able to figure out a way to save himself. He is about the only one I like. They should all confront Vanessa with a thousand questions and don’t let her leave without answering every single one of them. My dream nominations for next week are: Clay and Vanessa for one HOH and Shelli and Austin for the other HOH.

I would really like to see Austin get voted out. I can’t stand the thoughts of watching him any longer. He will freak when he sees what a dweeb he has been in the house.

I do like the three nominations idea though. I would love to see it played out.

You all know how I feel so I won’t bore you with it all but once Austin goes, the twins will be voted out and if you think it’s boring now…. Vanessa is nuts. IMO

Mr Potato head..
