Could This Be Double Eviction Week? God, I Hope So

James and others have questioned if this may happen. It probably won't (and I pray it doesn't occur during Nat's magical "9" eviction night), but I have a scenario I'd love to see.

First, the boys see that it's in their best interest to give the boot to Sharon. Then, after a quick HOH that sees James or Josh as the victors, Sheila and anybody are put on the block. Sheila is unanimously booted, and then I don't care what happens next.

Why do I love this scenario? Well, Sheila HAS to go, and the sooner the better. Yet we all know what she's like when she's on the block - easily ten times more annoying than when she's not up (and doing the same things that she's currently whining about Joshuah's campaigning). This way we get rid of her with just a few minutes of tears.

Oh please, make it happen.

POV Meeting Time

James was called into the Diary Room in preparation for the POV meeting I assume. But he wasn't very awake so BB sent him out to splash some water on his face and wake up.

Not sure if it did the trick or not.

I am going to try to remember to watch the POV video on Tuesday to see if I can tell that James was forced to get out of bed to do it.

Right now the feeds are on trivia as the POV meeting is most likely underway. No shock expected - Sharon will be up.

Natalie still seems to be playing both sides and while she talked with Sheila about saving Sharon she also told Joshuah that she is working to save him and just trying to mollify Sheila.

Sheila's Predictable Reaction to the TP

Nine Is the New Seven?

After 30 minutes of Sheila's ranting, I fell asleep. Before that happened, though, Natalie expressed new theories about a different number. It's now all about the "9". The ninth weeks ends on April 9, James has had nine lives. so obviously this is the day he'll finally be evicted. Wait until she starts throwing in Revelations 9 references. Oh wait, that book is too confusing for her. I'm sure she'll find something in Matty 9 that will tell her all kinds of premonitions that won't pan out.

Just think what would happen if somebody informed her of the Beatles' "Revolution #9", and how playing Lennon's chant of "number 9, number 9" sounds like "turn me on, dead man" when played backwards.

Zit Popping Boogie.

Today will be the Power of Veto meeting and the outcome has been known since Friday. James will save himself and Natalie will nominate Sharon in his place.

The unknown thing at this point is who will be going home? I'd say the odds are even at the moment - if the guys realize that Sharon will be more likely to work against them if she stays they they will probably get rid of her.

While we wait for the meeting feel free to enjoy this gif I made of Sharon popping Joshuah's zits. If he wasn't gay I would say it must be love.

The Joke's on Sheila....AGAIN

This time, she was TP'd by the boys.

What A Relaxing Hour Of Showtime...And Then Sheila Came On

While not very exciting, it was nice to see everybody just hanging out having a good time. That's really what they should be doing during non-event days.

After a full hour of this, though, it was time for Sheila to ruin the mood. Natalie and Sharon hauled some boiling water up to Natalie's bathtub, and the first words out of Sheila's mouth was a complaint. "What's the Messaiah up to?" Ugh. Maybe you should try to sit back and enjoy yourself for a change.

Matt and Nat Met Before Season Began?

Everybody except Sheila are currently sitting in the kitchen. Everything's pretty calm, especially when they're ragging on Sheila. Talk is centered on the casting meetings, and besides stories about a weird guy with a "shitty Ipods" and somebody who does voice-overs for ESPN, Natalie talks about Matt smiling at her in the waiting room. I wonder if that was the moment she fell in love.

Talk About Playing Both Sides!

Natalie has now switched back to wanting to save Sharon. She told Sharon that to ensure she stays all she has to do is convince Ryan and Adam that she'll put up James and Sheila if she wins HOH.



She's now telling Adam that they have to keep Sharon.

Josh Freaked Out!

Tuesday's episode coincides with April Fools' Day, and as already noted the producers are playing tricks on the contestants for what I'm sure will be ten minutes of pure cheese. In the last hour or so, Josh has seen faces in the mirrors and has been wayyyyyyyyy over the top in his reactions.

They're currently on outside lockdown, which has them all freaked out that the producers have something scary planned for them. Could this and the previous incidents involve former house guests from not either this season or previous seasons? It's been done before.

Could The Unholy Alliance Still Be On After All?

Natalie is now informing the boys what Sheila and Sharon are saying about them. Josh just cornered her in the bathroom, and all Natalie claims to care about is that the vote is not tied so she doesn't become the bad guy. She tells him Sheila is pushing hard for him to go so it will be boys versus girls. Josh offers to give up two HOH's to her, but she tells him the best plan is for him to get it and get rid of Sheila.

My favorite part is when Josh asks if she should go off on Sheila. Natalie's response is to not do that because "she doesn't want to listen to Sheila bitch 24/7". She also thought the flour incident was funny. "I got some on me. I'm not complaining." I may be starting to like Natalie, after all.

The Boys Are Bored...And Sheila's Suffering For It

Big Brother is not the only entity pulling tricks on the House Guests. The boys couldn't be more bored, so they're playing pranks on Sheila. James dumped a cup of flour on her while she was sunbathing (see video below), and Adam and James just exchanged her mattress with the one where Natalie took care of Matt.

She's not aware of the mattress caper yet, as she's too busy complaining to Sharon about James' "immaturity". "He's gawwwt to go. Gib me a break." Oh yeah, and she's continuing to promise how she's going to win the next HOH, and how close she's been in the past. Um, that's not true, Shewitch. You're usually firmly planted in last place.

BB Messing with the HGs - April Fools Jokes?

Tuesday is April Fools Day and it appears that BB is up to something.

Earlier Natalie swears she saw a 'scream' mask in the mirror in the HoH room and just now the water shut off on Sheila mid-shower.

It just shut off for a second time and we get 'flames.'

Natalie also said her hot water went off when she was showering earlier.

They suspect this si pranks for some April Fools segment so they won't be very surprised with anything else that happens.

Fun With Tampons

Ryan and Adam played a little joke on the house last night with Sheila's tampons. I don't know how smart this is, given her constant complaints about her "heavy flow". She may need every single one of these.

Ryan and Adam's Eviction Conversation

Here's the conversation Indymike wrote about in the earlier post.

Adam: So did you marinate at all last night?
Ryan: No way. I just went to bed. Something has to come to me.
Adam: It's a crucial decision. I wanna help our numbers...
Ryan: I think it's better for our numbers to get Sharon out...

Ryan: Whatever happens, we need HoH.
Adam: Again.
Ryan: Again.
Ryan returns to pushing for Sharon out. Adam returns to countering...
Adam: Think me n Sheila'll getta prize for being the last couple in the house?
Ryan: You're gettin' nothin', kid.
Adam: How're we gonna do this, dude? This is a critical point in our lives... Joshuah or Sharon? I'm gonna tell him, yeah you're gonna promise me this, but do I believe you, is my question.
Ryan: What's Natalie leaning towards?
Adam: Joshuah.
Ryan: To go?
Adam: Yeah.
Ryan: Well, of course. She's gonna lean towards the girl...

Alliances in Flux

So when I stopped watching last night I thought the new alliance that was composed of Natalie, James, Ryan and Joshuah seemed pretty secure.

As has been noted I was dead wrong because Natalie ran right to Sharon and then to Sheila (hmm - Sharon and Natalie wanted to keep Sheila in the dark and they 10 minute late told her). So now these three want to convince Adam to vote out Joshuah but no let Ryan, James or Joshuah know they are working towards that.

But, only Sheila gets to vote of those three. There are a total of four votes this week.

Sharon, Sheila and Natalie hope to convince Adam to vote out Joshuah without clueing him in to their plans.

This morning Ryan spent a long time talking to Adam about who to keep - Ryan does a great job of letting the other person think outloud - and then throw out bits and pieces that make them look at things they way he wants them to without them realizing it.

On a side note... I have 'fixed' the layout this morning - took me a log long time - still never found the problem, I just re-buil the whole darn thing!

Google Ads on this Blog

Coincidence? I think not! With all the stupid bible thumpers on BB9 this year, the top ad is:

Church Background Checks

Have Piece Of Mind And Confidence In Your Volunteers And Leaders.

Bible thumping and inability to spell! PIECE out!

Oh Natalie!

Remember when everybody told Natalie not to say anything to Sheila and Sharon? So much for that plan. She's currently telling all to both of them, and oh boy these ladies are fired up.

And the lies are just flying! Sharon is completely denying that she ever kissed Matt. Sheila is completely contradicting everything she said just ten minutes before to James and Josh. And I can't even begin to count the fibs coming out of Natalie's mouth. Yet they're all once again bringing up how they're the "do-gooders", and the evil-doers will do anything to survive?

Here's what I don't get, though. The girls are in the HOH room with the door shut. All of the boys are outside. Why are they whispering?

Has Nat Changed Her Opinion On Matt?

Uh, no, because if she really is over him she wouldn't be talking about him 22 of the 24 hours of the day.

Last Night's Confrontation - Did It Propel James to Victory?

I didn't see the big blowup until this morning, but I did see the buildup. James had spent the day a defeated man - his girl was gone, he was nominated for eviction, and he had nobody that would even pretend to acknowledge his presence. He wakes up and hears Sheila and others openly mocking him and encouraging Josh.

Even then, James would have probably just grabbed his drink and disappeared back into the bedroom. Instead, Sheila had to goad him. "Jaaames, yah know ahhh love youuuu. Ah've neber said anything against youuuuuuuu." Liar whore, liar whore.

Still, James had no desire to carry on. "Sheila, I'm not mad at you", he said more than once. Stupid Sheila just has to have the last word, and James' frustrations grew the more she defended herself.

What was infuriating to me, though, was those moments right after this initial confrontation. "Matty did absolutely nothing to James, and he kicked him out. From now on, Ah'm going to say what ah feel." Yes, you're always the martyr, and it was at this point I had to turn off the TV. I figured there would be another 90 minutes of her feeling sorry for herself.

Instead, James refused to back down, and while his reaction may have been a tad over the top, it's about time that somebody stood up to that wildebeast. That is the problem of this entire season. Nobody has the brains to figure out that they're all lying to each other, and nobody has the balls to call said people out when they figure this shit out. Look at what happened when a month or so ago when James informed four people that Matt was playing them - it was forgotten within hours and now he's still considered a saint. That shit would not fly in previous years.

Renergized by this fight, was it any surprised that James won POV? I firmly believe that if Sheila hadn't goaded, James would still be on the block. Yet Natalie still wants to keep the woman who is a female version of Confederacy of Dunce's Ignatius J. Reilly. If you haven't read that book, Ignatius was a middle-aged mess who thought he was morally superior to everybody, and whose every move resulted in chaos for anybody who came into contact with him. Talk about a perfect definition of Sheila.

New Alliance - James, Ryan, Josh and Natalie

They have decided that Sharon will go this week - then they will go after Adam and Sheila because they feel that they are too strong as a couple.

Meanwhile Sharon is bursting into tears because she feels like she has let her partner down. Little does she know Joshuah overheard Sharon crying in the bathroom and Sheila comforting her - and he ran upstairs and told Natalie and Ryan that Sheila is already working to get Sharon's trust.

What a huge turn of events - this week just improved by a million percent.

Ryan: I'd rather have Josh.

The boys vs. girls plan may be in place.

Ryan just told Adam how he'd rather keep Joshuah in the game, and evict one of the girls. Bad news for Sharon. Bad news for Sheila. Although Sheila leaving will be good for America.

James is starting to show how happy he is by dancing around in his room.

Post POV - Bring on the drama

Tonight should be very fun. We already have Joshuah saying fuck it and about to eat a cheeseburger.

POV Reaction

Sharon is crying.

Joshuah has yet to throw a fit, but is threatening to not stick to the slop. He really knows it's his time to leave.

James is not gloating. At all. He's walking around pretty much in shock that he won and he's staying in this house. Smart move on his part.

Sheila is talking about the competition. Joshuah just wants her to shut up. Sheila's dumb move yesterday has put her on James' shit list. In a perfect world, Ryan will lobby hard to keep Joshuah in the house. Sheila will go up and we all can be rid of that awful mess. This isn't a perfect world right now, though. Maybe on Sunday it will be.

It's time for dinner in the house now. Should be an interesting weekend.

Jasmes Won The POV

James won the POV.

Seriously.

Joshuah thinks he is going home - and he is probably right.

Buah ahahahhahahah

Looks like James won the POV!!!

And the POV Winner Is....

You just can't get rid of him!

Joshuah's only hope is Natalie putting up Sheila.

Boys vs Girls

Battle of the sexes? Team Pink? that made me giggle a bit.

As the girls sit upstairs discussing clots, the guys are downstairs discussing slop shits.

On a side note, is it fun to hear Sheila lay out her excuse for losing POV. Ohhhh it's so heavy, I'm running through plugs like unreal. You just don't understand, it's never been this bad!

Yea ok Sheila, no other woman has ever had a heavy flow. It's ok, we all know the reason you will lose POV, the same reason you have never won anything, you just suck.

Does the site look messed up to you too?

Silly I know - but I noticed last night that everything is suddenly 'centered.'

I didn't make a change to the sites template so I am trying to discover why it looks this way.

So I guess this is more to let everyone know that yes, I know things look screwy and I am working on fixing it as I have time.

Carry on!

I have faith in the BIg Brother producers!

As has been shown pretty much every season...the producers find ways to keep the controversial players in the game. Be it some comments to the house guests while in DR or, most importantly, making competitions geared to the strengths of a particular player.

Does anyone else not find it coincidental that Sharon was in DR during the start of the drama? James is starting to stir, talk is happening, get Sharon out to maintain her appearance of really never being involved *wink* *wink*

I didn't like James when the cast announcements were made but as soon as he entered the house I changed my mind. This season won't be the first where someone who was gunned for pretty much the entire time kept in it...Janelle.

I trust the POV comp will be geared to a win by James. Do not disappoint me BB!

The Fight/After Fight/More Fight/Never Ending Fight

The Start:



After Fight:



More Fighting w/ Adam, Natalie, and Ryan:



Currently, Joshuah seems to be going around to everyone making sure they're all okay.

Sheila should really keep her mouth shut. At this point, James has NO reason to lie, and Sheila keeps lying.

I have no idea where James is. I think he's trying to calm down, collect his thoughts, and get ready for the competition.

edit: Just hit me, James was called into DR.

More Dramers

James is cursing his "fucking" ass off at Natalie about how he has no one to "play" with any longer. James is pissed off that Natalie has a "pecking order" as to who will end up being the final four. Of course to contest this, she brought up that that was basically James' plan as well.

James is still attacking Sheila whenever he can(calling her the c-word, etc.).

2:53 a.m. Adam ran into the room while James was sulking outloud and screamed to James to leave him out of his pow wow.

James lost his voice, and his only chance is to win POV..for the third time in a row. James is regretting not taking Sheila out. The War continues.

Sheila is asking Natalie to put her up, no matter who wins POV because she wants to go home. Natalie is trying to talk her out of this. Sheila is basically scared that James will Evel Dick her all week.

It's ON!

James decided to go out and talk to Sheila. This is the LOUDEST I have ever heard James. He called her a "Two faced lying bitch" and then the feeds went to trivia for me. The picture really says it all. He was VERY intimidating.

Feed's back.

Everyone heard it and it was very intense, even though we missed a decent amount of it.

James finished with "You're a lying ass bitch" and walked inside.

Joshuah is sitting with his head there just repeating "That was intense."

If there's video, I'll put it up as soon as I see it go up.

And for those wondering, James just got in her face. He did not touch Sheila in any way. Of course the feeds went off for a minute, but James would not be sitting in his room if he did physically hurt her.

Edit: Video of the blow up

James' Revenge!

James overheard Ryan, Adam, Sheila, and Natalie telling Joshuah that he was going to be safe this week and there's no way he's going home. Sharon was in diary, by the way, even though she was involved in this conversation earlier. James was telling Joshuah how he overheard everything, called them out, and Sheila backpeddled her ass off.

Sheila won't let go of how Chelsia left the house, and is taking it out on James. James expected it, but Chelsia really did ruin his game. It was a completely selfish move on her part and severely hurt the one person she cared about most in the house. James knows all this. James knows the target on him is now bigger than ever because of Chelsia's final outburst. Since he's witnessed the bashing to Joshuah, he's been very confident in saying he's going to win the veto tomorrow.

James is being lied to right now, pretty hardcore. By everyone. Even by the two people he can kind of trust. It's going to be an interesting competition tomorrow, for sure. I can't wait to see the outcome.

In a perfect world, James would pull himself off the block and Natalie for some reason would nominate Sheila. But this isn't a perfect world and I don't know why we have to wait so long for Sheila's eviction.

EDIT: Video of James telling Sheila to keep her mouth shut!!

Sheila's the Biggest Threat?

When James was evicted, he did say Sheila was the biggest threat.

Tonight, Sheila flat out asked him who he thought was the biggest threat.

He replied with he isn't threatened by anyone.

Sheila is now telling everyone else that he told her he felt threatened by her.

Maybe I missed something, but I remember watching her in that hot tub hoping he'd say her name and he never did.

He Has to Go!

Sharon might start some drama!

I never thought I'd see the day. She wants to get the other house guests pumped up before tomorrow's competition by spreading some rumors about James.

Joshuah is going to stay calm. He believes James is just waiting for Joshuah to freak out a little bit. Sharon and Josh know everyone want James gone and believe this is his week to finally go. James is in his bed, all curled up.

I feel really bad for James. I did want to see Chelsia go, but now that she's gone he has no one in the house. Well, maybe Sheila. But she can turn on a dime. I wanted James to win this all at first, and everything completely changed.

Joshuah is promising not to pull a Chelsia.

I think tonight will be an early night for all the house guests. The competition will probably be early tomorrow morning.

Be Afraid!

Sheila just said that she's PMS'ing, and the combination of that plus being on slop is going to bring out her "rage face". I'm already scared.

Sheila Almost Won POV Once.

Remember the pool game a few weeks ago?

When Sheila was knocked out first, and the first prize opened was the Veto?

She just told Ryan that she was once close to winning a veto. It was around her neck.

Yup. And you were close to winning $10,000 and ya got that taken away too.

Picking Names for the Veto Competition

I got excited because they left the cams on, but it changed quickly.

Sad Ash.

We'll know soon who is all playing and who isn't.

Please, oh please, don't let Sheila play.

Edit: Adam was the name not chosen for the competition.

Sheila Plays James

Sheila catches James alone and she decides it's time to talk to him. She says she never wanted Chelsia to leave. She was upset that she never got the chance to talk to her alone before she left and didn't like her speech when she left. Also, she doesn't want him leaving and truly doesn't believe he'll be going home. James also didn't like the speech. In my opinion, Chelsia leaving like a brat was not good for James. Sure, his fate in the house was determined weeks ago, but her bitching like that just makes the rest of the house not trust the one person she confided in. James agrees with this.

We have two little spies. Joshuah was the first one, then Natalie. They both happened to run into each other and Natalie tells Josh that James staying isn't happening.

Joshuah is handling the nomination much better than we all would have imagined. He is fiery. Since he's on the block with James, he's a little more at ease. This doesn't mean he's completely okay with being on the block. He isn't. He seems more subdued and quiet. If he was on the block with anyone other than James, we would have seen the Joshuah we all know and love. Or hate.

This could all change tomorrow.

James and Joshuah Nominated.

No shocker here.

James has to win tomorrows POV or he will be leaving next Wednesday.

Anyone else probably won't use the POV if they win it.

Only one person will not get to compete tomorrow. If they competition is of a certain type people could gang up against James to keep him from winning. My guess is it will not be that type.

Update - I thought they were on an inside locktown to prepare for tomorrow's POV but they are back outside now so I guess not.

Nat Makes Her Play - Nominates Josh and James

No surprises here. James is gone unless he wins POV.

The only good thing to happen in the last 24 hours, though, is Sheila being on slop for the third time. The more things she has to complain about, the less repetition to come out of her mouth.

Nat to Josh: YOU MUST WIN THE VETO

Despite some last minute effort by Ryan to put Sharon and Joshuah on the block to backdoor James, Natalie stayed true to all of our assumptions and nominated James and Joshuah.

When the feeds came back on, Joshuah went to shave his legs. Natalie followed him and told him he needs to win the veto. James is fighting for himself in this. I don't know why Natalie is telling Josh to win the veto. She shouldn't want either people she nominated winning it.

If anyone other than James wins the veto, they should keep the nominations the same. Well, Joshuah will pull himself off in that case Sharon once more will play the pawn. If James does pull himself off the block with a veto win, Joshuah is probably going home.

Earlier, before the nominations, Adam was in the HOH room alone with Natalie. Stupid Natalie kept bringing up Matt, and ruining my hopes and dreams of Baller somehow getting with Natalie. See this picture? He's in place. He's so ready. Once he got in this position he soon left the room and I was sad. But he had to go to the bathroom, so I guess when nature calls you gotta put off other things.

Food Competition

The feeds were off for awhile for what seems to be a food competition.

As far as I know, Sheila is on slop. I think Ryan is also on slop because he started mentioning foods he misses already. And that he's going to start drinking coffee to curb his appetite.

This is Sheila's third time on slop. She really sucks.


The house guests outside are playing with the farm animals.

Joshuah is humping them.

The boys are now hitting watermelons. I guess this was part of the competition.

And we have trivia. Well, it keeps flipping on and off.

Edit: A lot of them are bitching about slop, and Mike just informed me everyone except Adam is on it. Way to go Adam.

And there are 8 letters in barnyard. Fuckin Joshuah messing with Nat.

Earth to Sheila - your pictures are out there,

Sheila didn't think her pictures were out on the internet. She said you would have to go to Penthouse to see them and download them and pay money.

Apparently Eric commented that he had seen her pictures but Sheila didn't hear it (it was said when the girls were inside changing).

Are you late to this site? Our very own Scott found and posted the pictures and you can get to the via this post - LINK

The James/Natalie Alliance?

James knows the only way he's staying in this house is to create an alliance with Natalie. Natalie wants to put him on the block, along with Joshuah. It's been obvious for awhile, and can now finally happen.

James has mentioned "Final 2" to Natalie. James wants to stay in this house, and is doing his best to make Natalie see that she is not his target. He says he didn't backdoor her. He did backdoor Matt, but James hopes they can both move past losing their partners and join together.

Joshuah has asked Adam and Ryan to play their hardest for him if both of them are in the POV. For James, no one in the house has his back. He would have only himself to win the POV and take himself off the block.

James keeps apologizing for the pickle juice, and Natalie says she was never mad at him because he didn't verbally attack her family. These two both want to win, and Natalie is easily swayed. With the winning streak James is on, I can see why she'd be swayed to create an alliance with him.

Natalie says if she chooses to work with James, she does not want to include anyone else.

Time for Nat to think about this.

Natalie's HOH Room

Natalie jumped for joy when she finally got to hold that Yellowcard CD she's been talking about for weeks now. She read her letter aloud to the house guests and began to cry. Joshuah and James left the room first. The worst possible scenario for them is Natalie being HOH. Joshuah's saving grace is his secret alliance with Ryan, who will pull to keep Joshuah in the house.

The rest of the house guests, including Sharon, are all hanging out with Natalie in her room.

Natalie called Sharon jumping ship. I think Sharon is true to her alliance with Joshuah, which is probably why she is hanging out with Natalie so much - to keep Josh in the house. Keep mentioning Jesus and numbers and you're in with Nat.

Sharon has convinced Sheila to work out with her, but Sheila isn't starting tonight.

For the Natalie haters, just think, that Yellowcard CD will shut her up. For the Natalie lovers, she's on cloud 9 right now. It's nice when the girl everyone doubts wins. I'm a fan of a city with underachieving sports teams, so I'm always pulling for the underdog.

The really bad thing about this? Sheila is definitely in the house for at least another two weeks, barring any unforeseen hatred.

Your Favorite House Guest Poll

I like polls but it would be silly to have a 'who is going home' poll - it will be James or Joshuah this week. And to be honest - this site tends to favor the James alliance (not much left of it huh?) but I think we pretty much are ok with all the players - even though some of them drive us nuts.

So I wanted to see how the visitors feel about the HGs. As of this writing Sharon and Sheila have the lowest votes - my guess is Sheila is not a favorite because she annoys a lot of people - and my guess is Sharon is not a favorite because she hasn't done a lot in the house.

I may make up a second poll asking who is the least favorite and I suspect it wouldn't be Sharon - it might be Sheila but it might also be Natalie.

Lookin' Good.

Chelsia is long gone, but her red robe remains.

James must miss her so much that he's been wearing it.

And Here's What We're Going to Hear From Sheila All Week

"I have a 16 year-old son at home who just had to hear her mom called a skank...they should have killed her mic or something."

This Post Will Be Repeated For Seven Days

"Blah blah blah...this is for Matty...blah blah blah."

Josh has already made his move, telling them he knows what's up and asks Ryan or Adam to win POV and for Natalie to not change the nominations. He knows his only hope is against James.

Big Brother - Season 9, Episode 20 Recap (AKA My Worst Episode Ever)

Here we go with the night I’ve been dreading all week – the probably departure of my girl Chelsia. I’ve been down in the dumps all day, and I almost considered not putting together my usual 80,000 word commentary.

But here I am, mainly because Natalie says tonight’s show includes the “most important HOH ever!” Well, it’s important until next week’s crucial contest.

After the recap, and Julie’s recap of the recap, we kick things off, as usual, with the aftermath of the POV meeting. Chelsia is angry that “Adam has no backbone, and he’s just doing the dirty work for Natalie”. (I don’t really agree with that assessment, but whatever.)

Josh, meanwhile, gloats over his move to convince his partner to put herself up. Sharon’s not concerned. “I knew the risk was very minimal, having her on the block with me. Right now, I’m pretty sure that I have the majority of the house.”

Back to my girl Chelsia, who talks of her bond with James. “(He’s) been the only person that I can trust in this game.” James tries to cheer her up, but she’s sad because “I came here to play a game, and that’s not what I did”. In her diary room interview, she admits that developing feelings for James screwed up her game. I wish I could hug her instead of that pink-haired cretin.

So we move to a later moment, and Natalie’s voice and actions are driving Chelsia crazy (along with the rest of America). “All-timer’s disease”? “Old-hymers”? “I cannot stand Natalie, and every little thing she does sends me over.” You can see the steam rise from Chelsia as Natalie constantly babbles while painting Easter eggs. “If I’m going to go out of this house, I’m going out with a band”, Chelsia promises.

Ok, so they’re messing with the timeline here a bit, but suddenly Chelsia grabs an Easter egg and smashes it. Josh and James smile, as she smashes a couple more. “Come on, Natalie, have some fun”, she says sarcastically. Natalie’s pissed. “If I acted that way, my family would have absolutely nothing to do with me.”

James tries to get Chelsia to go to bed, but instead she smashes the rest of the bowl of eggs. Sheila’s also pissed, and Natalie adds “God, I hope you’re watching this”.

“Oh, this is the Beaver State egg”, Chelsia laughs as she smashes Natalie’s pride and joy. “She picks on me because I’m her biggest threat”, whispers Natalie to herself. Sharon, meanwhile, does what she does best – lies in bed and reads the Bible.

Oh God, this is getting good. “Natalie is the artist of the group. Natalie, I need your puzzle skills! Natalie! You white trash!” Natalie continues to whisper to herself. After the rampage is over, James asks her why she’s doing this. “Don’t look at me like I’m crazy”, she answers. James says she’s voting against her.

After the commercials, we join the contestants. Julie’s first question goes to Baller. “What would you prefer – a little jar of strained peas or a little jar of puree pears?” Silly Adam doesn’t understand the baby food question. Two more questions come out about this silly love.

Of course, she must ask about the return of Evel Dick. Sheila is asked if Evel Dick is her kind of guy. “He absolutely is!” Julie says that if he’s watching, Dick must be a happy man to hear this answer. I think otherwise.

Natalie is asked about Alex. Obviously, that’s not true. Julie can’t resist asking if Matty is still on her (feeble) mind. “I think about him every day. I miss his presence in this house every day.” Oh boy, she’s asked to count. Matt’s last name has eight letters? Sheesh.

Finally, we end with Sharon, who is asked who will take care of the “beebies” if she’s evicted. There’s no question that this role would have to pass on to the person closest in brain size – Natalie.

Before we head to the live vote, we get a profile of “Baller”. It’s about as senseless as you may imagine. “Big Baller in the house!” We do get to meet his family, and it’s the usual “he’s a kind and loving person” feature. What a polite boy – he actually carries groceries for his mom. Wait, mom says he has a bit of Rain Man in him? Bwahahahaha! Why don’t they ask him about his tendency to rub his balls and ass?

It’s almost eviction time, but before we get to that we have to chat with Baller. Julie starts off by asking about his relationship with Sheila. He admits what us live feed viewers knew the entire time – that he never had any intentions of putting her up. He just wanted to mess with her a little. “I just like getting a rise out of her sometimes.” Little more comes out of this conversation.

Ooooh, my girl gets a little feisty in her last opportunity to plead her case. “If it is my time to walk out those doors I’m happy because I did not change for any one of you. I did not become a materialist, vain person. I’m ok with that. If I walk out that door today, I still have my dignity because I did not breast feed off any one of you to stay in this house.” Poor James hides his eyes.

We know what happens here – everybody votes to evict my girl Chelsia. And she goes out with a bang! “I just want to give you some awesome insight into this game. Adam, get a backbone in this game. You’re playing like a baby. Sheila, you’ve been road hard and you will be put away wet. Natalie, educate yourself. You need one, honey. You’re in dire need of one. Josh, you’re crazy. I love you, baby.” She whispers in Josh and James’ ears as she finally walks out.

Sheila is overheard bitching (as she should) as Chelsia walks out to talk to Julie. “She’s just jealous.” Julie begins by asking what she whispered to Joshua. “He has a tendency to psyche himself out before competitions…he can do anything in this game.” To James, she says that she just told him “there’s a reason he’s still in this game”.

When asked about her tirades, Chelsia says she knew she was heading out and she had promised “to go out with a bang”. Julie wants to make an issue out of James not voting for her, but Chelsia says she’s for “anything to help him win the game”. Having said that, she says her biggest mistake was voting for James to come back.

We conclude with the goodbye speeches. Josh promises to go after Natalie and Adam, and Sharon hopes they will continue to be friends. Natalie says she’s “been praying for you, and will continue to pray for you”, which makes Chelsia laugh. James babbles on about how much he cares for her, and that he wants to pursue their relationship outside the house because “it’s worth more than $500,000 to be with you”. When asked if their relationship will continue, Chelsia says she wants to watch the season first. Smart move.

So we conclude with the HOH competition, and after Julie gives the same prepared speech she gives every week, we finally begin. It’s “Big Brother Election”, and the answers come from questions viewers answered on CBS.com. James and Sheila miss the first question, while Josh and Natalie take the lead on the second question. OMG, Natalie takes the lead on the third question, and looks headed to win. My nightmare may come true! And it does, so this will be my worst week ever.

Chelsia's Out; NATALIE IS HOH

Wow!!!

We all knew Chelsia was out, but I totally did not see this as Natalie's competition.

This game is crazy!

LIVE SHOW COMMENT THREAD!!!!

8 minutes to showtime - are ya ready? Are ya?

Anyone else notice how the camera's were focused on Natalie ALL DAY?

Please let Josh or James or Sharon win HoH so it isn't a completely boring week!!

Sorry to see ya go Chelsia!

Same Crap, Different Day

I went to bed hearing Sheila and Natalie go on and on about how "good" they are, and this morning they're continuing the same babble. We get it - God loves you more than the "other side", or at least you think he does. Can they stop congratulating themselves for one minute?

BTW, it took Natalie two hours to do her hair and apply makeup. They each had one humorous quote, though:

Natalie: "My ex is probably so glad Matty's gone."

Sheila: "My ex is probably so glad Alex didn't come back as a single."

Right, Sheila, Alex really was going to make a play for you.

Poor Chelsia

Chelsia is crying on the bathroom couch to James about how badly she doesn't want to leave the house. No duh. No one wants to leave the house. Chelsia is so cute when she cries. James is trying to force Chelsia to cry more so I guess he doesn't have to deal with the tears again..he is so bad at trying to sympathize.

You won a Vegas trip, girl. That's more than Matt got for his mawm. *tear*

Another Nat Lie

In reporting her conversation with Chelsia, Natalie told Ryan that she claimed Ryan had promised her his vote. When Ryan offered to call Chelsia out on it, she quickly backtracked.

Oh yeah, and she also bragged that America would rather see her and Matt have sex than James and Chelsia.

Big Brother - Season 9, Episode 19 Recap

Here we go with part two of my weeklong nightmare. At least we get the return of Evel Dick Donato, but I’m still stung by the news that my girl Chelsia is on the block.

Of course, we start with the reactions to the nominations. James notes that Adam is no longer a floater, and is definitely aligned with Ryan, Natalie, and Sheila. Well, duh. Chelsia admits it’s a smart move because if she wasn’t up against him she’d do anything to save him. They pretend to celebrate in the storage room.

Josh is proud of himself for not being on the block, and Sharon is so starved for some – any – notice that she asks him for a hug. Chelsia adds that she knows it’s James everybody’s after, and they’re just going to try to have fun with the nominations. “Who’s going to be backdoored”, Josh sarcastically adds. “Will it be Joshuah or Sharon.”

Up in HOH, Adam celebrates with Natalie. “Good job, Adam. D-U-N, done.” The sad thing is that’s probably how she thinks it’s spelled. She goes on and on about how that’s the best move he could make. Well, it’s the best move for you, Natalie, but nominating Sharon, Josh, and/or Sheila would be just as strategic for him.

James and Chelsia continue to play around, and it is disgusting Sheila (of course). “They’re kids. It’s to be expected that they’re going to be childish.” So it’s better to cry and mope and yell at everybody like you have done when you’re nominated? Sheila heads up to HOH to complain. “They’re all down there talking smack. She’s just losing it.” Huh? They’re having fun. I won’t even report the stupidity Natalie says in the diary room.

Hang on for a second here. They both keep saying how it “took a lot of guts” to put those two up. Weren’t they the obvious choices? Wouldn’t the really guts move be to put up some unexpected people? I can think of two that would have rocked the house.

The next morning, Josh and Chelsia chat in the storage room about attempting to get Adam to backdoor either Sheila or Natalie. Good luck with that. Josh informs her that of the two of them, she’s safer.

Looking especially beautiful, Chelsia gives James the evil eye from the green chair in the bedroom. They both agree that it really sucks they’re up together, but James talks about throwing the POV competition. He informs her that it’s only fair, though, for it to be her turn as he’s already been evicted. “I want to stay in the game, though”, she replies.

Time for a meeting of the minds. Sheila and Natalie talk about the POV, and Natalie says God knows that it’s important “they” win. “This POV is more important than any one of them”, Sheila claims. Really? Whatever.

We jump ahead in the timeline to tonight’s extended commercial for the movie “21”. Those who get to see the movie are given a bucket of popcorn, and inside one of them is the trip to Vegas that Ryan lost the other night. The buckets are emptied, and my girl Chelsia wins!!! I know who she should take with her!

They head up to see the movie, and Natalie’s pissed. “I’m going to just sit here and eat this popcorn.” Sheila’s happy because they’re serving milk duds, but movies are “her life” because she takes her son to them. Uh, so does the majority of American parents.

It’s time to fast forward a bit, as we really don’t need a recap of the commercial for the movie. Let’s just say that of course they loved it. Sheila calls it “amazing”.

We move back a day or so to pick player for the POV, and they’re all shocked it’s happening at night. Adam is the first to pull a name, and he gets Josh. Chelsia gets Sheila (lucky her), and James gets “houseguest choice” and picks Sharon. Ryan’s pissed he didn’t get picked, and whines to Adam. James, meanwhile, continues to act goofy, but Sharon’s not so pleased as she knows she’ll probably go up if either of them get saved.

Here’s the moment we’ve been waiting for. It’s early morning, and Josh is snoring as Evel Dick walks in. He grabs a frying pan and a pot, and…we go to commercial.

Ok, we’re back. We see everybody sleeping, and Dick comes into the bedroom pounding his pot and pan. I’m a bit shocked that he’s pretty reserved in his pounding, but Josh wakes up scared to death! Natalie has some serious bedhead- can somebody please send me a screencap of that awful face?

Sheila claims she hates Evel Dick, but jumps all over him and tries to say she has come to respect him. “I had to get you up because you dream about me every day”, he tells her. I had to stop that shit right away.” Natalie is still going on about the number eight. “Evel Dick has eight letters, this is week eight…” Enough with the numbers! Tee hee – Adam locks himself out of the HOH.

The competition involves ten “evel” drinks, and each drink consumed is rewarded with a croquet shot. Plus, if anybody beats Dick’s score last year of 33, they get a Gibson Les Paul. If nobody beats him, he gets to keep it.

Sharon’s up first, and she doesn’t appear to do very well (we’re not initially told how many they downed). Josh comes out next, and tells Dick that people call him the “gay version of you”. Dick corrects him – “I heard you call yourself the gay version of me”. Josh appears to do a bit better than Sharon, but quits before he’s finished.

Sheila’s up next, and it seems that she’s as bad in this competition as in any others. Chelsia is belching as she downs them, which seems to impress Dick. Adam seems to do so-so, and it’s down to James. “I’m way more determined than anybody in the house”, he claims, and it does seem that he might have drank them all.

It turns out that Josh came in last place, followed closely by Sharon and Chelsia. None of them did well in the croquet. Sheila drank seven of the ten drinks, which James says “blew my mind”. She even did reasonably well in croquet, taking the lead with 23 points.

Adam downed eight shots, and his croquet score (28) easily beats Sheila. Chelsia admits that she kind of hoped that Adam “rocked” the croquet. James finished all ten shots, and his first croquet shot was awful. He improves as the game goes on, though, and with one shot left he’s two points behind. Sure enough, the last shot was just enough to win, although still behind Dick’s 33.

Josh and Sharon are worried that they may now go up, and Chelsia knows she’s probably out of the house. “I’m royally screwed.” Yes, my dear, you are.

James and Chelsia escape into the storage room, and after a hug James says whomever escapes this week must go on to the end. Surprisingly, he throws in a “I love you”. Josh knows he has to figure out a way to ensure that he’s not put up as a replacement. He heads to his buddy Ryan and lets him know that Sharon is the best person to ensure Chelsia’s departure. Ryan promises to try to help him out.

He also convinces Sharon that she’s a better candidate than he is. “The thing I love about Sharon is that Sharon loves Joshuah,” says an over-caffeinated Josh. Sharon throws out the “no I in team” cliché, and runs out to tell Adam she wants to go up. “I know it’s a tough week for you”, she tell him, “and I’m trying to make it easier. I would be ok with you putting me up.” My girl is screwed!

Sharon explains her decision to Natalie, who for the very first time has an insightful opinion. “I suspect that Joshuah has something to do with it. He’s very sneaky.” You think? She takes her suspicions to Adam, but adds that “God has to help me get rid of James”. She wants Adam to put up Josh, but Ryan has come into the room at this point and puts an end to that idea, saying it’s more important to weaken James.

So we conclude with the POV ceremony, which is just a formality. James performs the obligatory pose in front of the pictures, and rounds up the crew for the meeting. Although CBS continues to attempt to create suspense, to nobody’s surprise James pulls himself off the block, and Sharon is put up. It doesn’t look good for my girl Chelsia!
