Just a Few Hours Left - Who Is Going to Win?

So who is going to win? I know we've already had a thread asking this question, but after the stories surrounding the jury questions, I think it may be closer than we initially expected.

Here's how I think the votes will go:

Matt: He apparently asked the dreaded question about how the money will be spent, but I still think he'll vote for Ryan. I know some may think he'll hold a grudge because of the deal that sent Natalie packing, but he may look at that as great game play.

Chelsia: No question in my mind that my girl will vote for Adam.

Joshuah: There's no question that he hates both Ryan and Adam, but it seems that he spent most of the jury time berating Adam. So I think he's a vote for Ryan.

James: Both Ryan and Adam have praised the way James behaved in the jury meeting, but it should be obvious that the fact Adam gave James a chance to save himself will earn his vote.

Natalie: This is a tough call. She was obviously more hooked up with Ryan, but he was also responsible for her departure. Will Adam's whisper at her eviction gain her vote? I think so, but she could easily do the "Christian" thing and forgive Ryan.

Sharon: Another tough call. She's obviously pissed at Ryan, but is it enough to give her vote to Adam? I think so.

Sheila: Who can predict what this psycho will do? She carried everybody, you know, and in her mind it's a crime that she's not in the final. She's mad that Ryan didn't choose her over Adam, even though Ryan told her the night before it wasn't going to happen. But she's also pissed that Adam didn't win that final HOH so he could carry her. How is she going to survive as a 46 year-old single mom? I predict she goes with Adam, but I'd hate to have to rely on her as the deciding vote.

So I hate it at 5 - 2 in favor of Adam, but it could just as easily a 4 -3 win for Ryan. What do you think?

Day Three of Final Two - No Different Than Day One or Two

The feeds are so exciting - sleeping, eating, exercising, and continued talk about how ungrateful Josh, Sharon, and Sheila were in the jury questioning. While I'm no fan of that trio, did these two really believe this silly exercise was going to be all about patting those two on the back?

What makes me laugh is that Ryan now wishes he would have come up with a charity to answer the inevitable "what are you going to do with the money" question. I've said this before, but Survivor is to blame for this. It's nobody's business what either of them do with the money, and the votes should be based on their actions in the house and nothing else.

The Aftermath of the Jury Questioning

The jury questions weren't shown on the feeds, but it was the talk of the night afterwards. Apparently, the boys weren't too happy with Sharon (who claimed she brought out "Hoops" in sequester), Sheila, and Josh. I'm surprised Natalie wasn't included in that list.

Four Days of Self-Congratulations

Here's all we're going to see the rest of the week - rehashing everything that happened in the house and patting themselves on the back. Plus lots of discussion over who will get the votes.

Could Sheila Have Pulled An Upset?

Already people on this board and others are saying that Ryan made a dumb move in keeping Adam. Truthfully, his dumb move was the head gesture to Adam as Sharon was leaving the house. Let's ignore that for this discussion.

Everybody, including those in the house, has their own voting scenarios. I don't see it as so cut and dry. When it comes down to actually voting during the series finale, it's not always friendships and alliances that guide the votes.

So the head gesture is probably ensuring a victory for Adam, but if he kept Sheila instead of Adam I'm not so sure that he'd still have the votes to win. There is still the bias against Jen, and Ryan has created phony alliances with almost everybody in the house.

I could also see some people rewarding Sheila for simply managing to survive despite all of her bitching, poor gameplay, and other phobias and excuses. Yes, being a bad player could have possibly been an asset.

Thank God Ryan made sure that scenario doesn't indeed happen.

Last Pics Of Final Three

Sheila Finally Gets Alone Time With Adam

Ryan got called to the diary room for last second instructions, so Sheila is going full-on to let Adam know that Ryan's not trustworthy. "Why do you owe him?"

Now Adam has been called in, and she's now campaigning to him. She appreciates him for listening to Adam in keeping her over Sharon.

Sheila's the last one to be called in (she sort of begged for it), and Adam is confirming for the last time that they're good.

Late-Night Insanity From Sheila

Since it's been mentioned, I thought I'd post the videos from last night.

First, this is Sheila berating Adam.


Here's the aftermath, where Adam and Ryan discuss how they gave her a chance.

Sheila Knows Adam Saved Her

Ryan told Sheila that she needs to thank Adam for the decision to keep her over Sharon, who obviously was pretty sure that she was staying. Instead of her normal quiet self, she was dancing around before the eviction. Sheila says this shows that Adam is an amazing person.

OMG, Adam's Campaigning to Save Sheila

The boys think they saw a glimpse of the first HOH competition, and they think Sharon could excel at it. Adam's making the pitch that Sheila will immediately fall (good point), nor does she have a shot at the physical. "There is no way she can beat you and no way she can beat me." Sharon, on the other hand, could pull off both and it would screw both of them.

Also, since Adam would be the one booting Sharon he'd be the one with "blood on his hand". He's also told Ryan that he will do whatever he says, including throwing the final HOH.

I said a couple of days ago that keeping Sharon is a mistake. Maybe Ryan has also figured this out. Doubtful, though, although the two shared a hug as if this is indeed the plan.

Could Adam Be Ryan's Target?

An interesting day, to say the least. Late last night, Sharon put into Ryan's head the idea of targeting Adam. One may think he was just doing what he does best - listening to her plan and nodding his head before doing what he had planned all along.

Yet today, this plan seems to have some traction. There's been more conversation between the two, and at one point Ryan even told Adam that he's going up (although he was clearly joking).

There was also a luxury competition today, and Ryan and Sharon won a Beverly Hills shopping spree along with the world premier of "What Happens In Vegas" (and they get to meet Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher). Just think about how mad Natalie will be when she hears about this contest! As losers, Sheila and Adam must be chained together for 24 hours. Needless to say, neither are happy about this.

The Boys Have Made Their Decision

Ryan and Adam just had a meeting in the backyard, and after going back and forth they decided to keep...














Natalie.

After they made the decision, they screamed for her to come outside. They told her that she could stay if she promised that Sheil goes home next week. Guess what her answer was?

Sharon Threatens To Bring Out "Hoops"...But Doesn't (As Usual)

All season long we've heard Sharon say that she'll bring out her "takes not shit" alter ego, Hoops, if necessary. She has said this to Chelsia, James, Josh, and Sheila (and probably others).

Well, a little bit ago she had another opportunity. Natalie had been promising all day that she was going to confront Sharon, which she finally did once Sheila was conveniently absent. I'm sure you can probably figure out what was said - Sharon's the "mole", Sharon threw Natalie under the bus, blah blah blah. Sharon did what she does best - she just took it and then afterwards said she's bringing out Hoops.

Whatever. Have fun with the rest of the "evil-doers" tomorrow night.







BTW, Ryan did throw "Alex" over the railing, but Sheila was there to give him CPR.

OMG, Natalie Is Staying!

Oh boy - Natalie's pity party is working. First Ryan, and now Adam appear to be saving her.

First, we get Adam promising to vote out Natalie, no matter what Ryan does.


Meanwhile, "Chatty" is working on Ryan.






Ryan tries to talk to Sheila about keeping Natalie, which leads to a predictable reaction from Sheila.




Ryan and Adam now talk about voting out Sharon 2 - 0.






Can you imagine how unbearable Natalie will be if she survives?

The Sheila and Natalie Show

We're almost an hour into BBAD, and the cameras have yet to leave the HOH. Natalie has played the pity game, and I must give Sheila some credit for throwing some of her actions back at her. She claims to not have even heard the term "Team Christ" until a couple of days ago. Natalie's not a great liar, though, and I've counted at least five fibs.

"Alex" just sits quietly in his chair. It's too bad he's not eligible for votes.

Adam is sick, or at least that's what he's using to keep Natalie from begging for his vote. Ryan is walking in and out of the HOH, but isn't really saying much.

The Two Dumbest Players in BB History?

Sheila's plan was all set to go forward as planned until this stupid meeting that just happened. Yet, instead of ensuring their side of the story is heard, they sat quiet through the whole meeting.

Now while Natalie has the boy's attention, they're sitting outside doing nothing but bitching about her.

Get in the house and don't let Natalie win!

Meeting Over - Nothing Accomplished

Around 3:30 BB time, Ryan and Adam announced there was going to be a meeting in an hour. Natalie attempted to find out what the meeting was going to be about, while Sharon begged them in private not to have it. She wants Natalie to be shocked when she's evicted (as do I).

A half hour later, Sharon came out and to tell the boys that Natalie won't be a part of the meeting. Adam started yelling out selected scriptures, and then confronted her in the bathroom.

They confronted her mainly about the "girl's club", and although she stood her ground by the end she began to lose it. Afterwards, she told Sharon that she's going home, but Sharon responded that it's still her week to leave.

The boys are now pretty happy with themselves.

It's Official - Nat's On the Block!

No surprise here, as Sheila has been promising this for two days. Ryan also promised Sheila that the plan is still to boot Natalie...although they still want to confront her for her various lies.
