survivor!

I took the statement as Jeff being sarcastic.

'Sarcastic' fits, in a way. And, I would add, 'pandering.' Jeff can't say what he really thinks, so he panders to Coach's ego to keep the feelings good, while also attempting to communicate to the rest of us that Jeff himself is brilliant.

Jeff, you got lucky, dude. Enjoy the money, and milk your good fortune for all it's worth. Keep stroking Coach's ego, start your show with him, and let's see just how brightly brilliance can shine.

I loved the blindside.

[Tim Elston]

Ja, ja, ja! Der Führer ist kaputt!

[teach]

I love it when they completely blindside someone, especially a jerk like tyson!!!

Didn't you just love the look on Tyson's face, and coach!!!! I almost ROFL.

[rjc]

It was great, did you see the expression on Coach's face, he thought he had total control of the game.

[Susie Hamilton]

Yep and at the end I think he realized he was not in control, I loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Billy n NC]

Yes oh Yes. I hope that Coach gets it even better.

That was as good as the Fake Idol blind side of last year.

Coach is a controller. The whole spiel he made in the tribal counsel about J.T. being a man of his word and an honorable warrior was one of the ways he tries to blackmail people emotionally, to appeal to their better nature in order to control them.

I'm starting not to like Survivor. When it comes right down to it, it's about who lies, cheats, and controls the best. When it gets down to the end, it's every person out to defeat everyone else. The trust that is built has to get thrown in the trash, and the game forces people to betray each other. That's starting to leave a bad taste with me. I wonder if others have that feeling about it sometimes.

[DeWayneTN]

That's starting to leave a bad taste with me. I wonder if others have that feeling about it sometimes.

Yeah, I agree. I've said recently that they should have some type of additional way to keep good players in the game. I think the way it's structured now, the best players have big targets on their backs and have a disadvantage, especially if they refused to participate in backstabbing.

I would love to see coach voted off this week!!

[DeWayneTN]

I was very disappointed they sent Sierra home last night. Debbie should have gone, especially with all that backpedaling and crying. I think if Debbie and Coach go, I'd be okay with any of the others winning. We may actually have a likable winner this year!

[teach]

yeah, coach is definitely showing some serious craziness now. Was it me or did he compare himself to Jesus Christ?....

It was no surprise that sierra went home, but tj, taj, and stephen are running this show, so it should end well

I would like to see coach go next week. I don't want to see him in the fianl 4 where he would get a lot more money. They receive more money the longer they stay.

Tim, I understand your feelings, but that's the game. In the end the jury ends up voting for the winner. So you have to lie, cheat and control in a way that the folks you vote off still like you. In the end you have to be better at it than someone else. Just like J.T.

I was glad to see Debbie go last night, did you again see the look on Coach's face. I think J.T and Stephen are keeping him around to stroke his ego to make him think he is in control and then the real Dragon slayer's will slay the fake Dragon otherwise known as Coach.

Did you catch Jeff's comment about I guess that was another Indian tribe in the Amazon that told you that Coach or something like that. I thought that was great.
