Part Deux
If you were watching the feeds last night, you saw that that hamsters found a new 'toy' in the backyard for them to play with. Actually, it was more like a practice setup for tonight's second part of the Head of the Household competition. If you didn't see it, you can check it out here.
The concept is simple: roll the ball into one of the holes without touching the sides. Jordan did a pretty good with it last night while Natalie didn't do as well. I'm thinking that for the competition tonight, they'll be asked questions (possiblly true/false) and they have to roll the ball into the correct hole. We won't know until tonight though.
Let's go back to the first part of the HOH competition right now. I know it's over and Kevin won it but check out this video. While the hamsters were getting ready to begin the Log Jam competition and before the show went off the air, Natalie appears to have taken a hair tie and wrapped it around her wrist and the key. That would have lessened the chances her hand came off the key. I don't know if during the trivia after the show Big Brother told her to remove it, but I thought this clip was just another perfect example of cheating. And in front of America at that!
I'm not a Jordan fan but at this point I really want her to win. That's only because I've come to despise Kevin and Natalie. Good luck tonight Jordan!
I will be liveblogging the show tonight so be sure to check back here at 8:00 PM ET/7:00 PM CT. You can also jump into chat and enjoy watching the show in there if you'd like.
What do you think tonight's part two of the HOH competition will be? What reason do you think Evel Dick, Janelle, Mike Boogie, and Danielle Reyes are going to be on the show tonight? What do you think about Natalie using that hair tie with her key? And finally, who do you want to win in the competition tonight?

I think it is interesting that all this cheating is going on right under CBS and Alison Grodner's nose and I wonder if it is going to take Evel Dick {my Fav HG} to point it out and call Natalie & Kevin out on National TV tonight and hopefully in front of the Jury House. OH one can only dream. PLease BB Gods say it is so.:)
Posted by: Patti at September 10, 2009 04:48 AM
Just a quikie!!!
I really do belive that "BB" is fixed!!
After all the incidents that have happened in the last couple of days WTF!!!!!
If i was Jordon I would really think about getting a lawyer after the show and you know what.
It seems clear that "BB" wants these final 2 people, Nat and Kevin. YUK!!!
One more question why does "ED" matter anymore?
He is such a Horrible person, one man's opinion.

I really hope Jordan can pull this off. I have been a fan for a long time. I agree with you that I cannot stand Natalie or Kevin, so Jordan winning would be icing on the cake.
If Natalie was allowed to use anything to help hold on, that is so wrong. I was also surprised Kevin was allowed to bring a power bar to the competition.
Here's hoping Jordan can pull off a victory tonight. Oh, to see Natalie's face if that happens...

Aloha HD
I am so disgusted with BB. I can't believe the Video of Nat-a-LIE clearly using an elastic band to secure her wrist to the Key. It sickens me that no one (AG,CBS,JC)responded to the outrage over the Nat-a-LIE hand on the rope footage. My only interest in BB now is to see Nat-a-LIE get her due from the former HG'S and the Jury Members. It infuriates me to see Jordan still sucking up to Nat-a-LIE!! This girl lives in LA-LA land and needs to wake up!! Maybe if Jeff gave her that exit kiss it would have done the trick!On the live feeds today I again vomited in my mouth a little when Nat-a-LIE got called to the DR and within and hour or so after she noisely waddled out, she mentioned the Engagement and how she hopes America does not get the wrong impression of her and that everything caught her so off guard and she truly is sooo excited and happy about the engagement. OOOOPS!, Sorry just vomited a little again. Honestly BB it is sooo obvious that you are trying to get Nat-a-LIE liked by America by giving her information from outside, cause nothing comes out of her mouth that is not planned or has an ulterior motive.(Except maybe food and spit)Check it out it happened around 4:15pm Hawaii time so I'm guessing 7:15pm Pacific. Sorry for the long post. Had to get this off my chest!! In Hawaiian Nat-a-LIE would be called PUPULE WAHINE
(CRAZY BITCH)(pronounced poopoolay waheenee)

I think Natalie's use of the hair tie is definitely sketchy, but honestly, I believe it's a moot point due to the fact that she clearly did not follow the rules and, at least at one point, had her hand only on her rope, not her key (as you noted in your previous post). She should have been disqualified at that point, absolutely!
Plus, Kevin ignoring the production crew's directions to face the pool and just continuing to face sideways seems to me to be a violation of the game's rules as well.
This is all so frustrating! I am a big advocate of fair play and even if these rule violations had happened with houseguests I was rooting for, I still wouldn't feel comfortable with them. The integrity of the game is shaky with Big Brother, I realize that, but there is just not even room for basic "suspension of disbelief" when they get this blantantly off-kilter.
I filled out the feedback form on CBS' web site complaining that if the Big Brother rules aren't going to be followed in competitions, how can CBS expect me to invest my time & energy following this show.
Posted by: Lisa at September 10, 2009 05:44 AM
Season 8 of BB seems to me to be where the show took a disturbing turn. AG discovered she had ratings gold in the badass bully and his whiny daughter. Suddenly, people were talking about, and watching, Big Brother again. Controversy equals rating and ratings equal $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. The behavior of the houseguests, with the exception of last year, has only gotten worse. I personally loved Dan and his game play. Being the mother of a young child, it was nice to have an example like Dan to point to and say, "nice guys can finish first".
This season has been a disappointment from the outset. I don't think I have ever found anyone to be more disgusting and repulsive than Natalie. I can't find a single redeemable quality in that woman. A graduate of Arizona State University? Really?!? Wow, the state of Arizona must be proud of that institution. The girl can't even put a sentence together. Her grammer is atrocious. She is a poor excuse for a university graduate. If she is what Blockbuster Video is employing for store managers, I think I'll stick with ordering movies from on demand.
It is obvious that fair play and good sportsmanship is not even on the list of objectives for the producers of Big Brother. It's not what pays the bills and brings in the big bucks. It doesn't matter in the slightest that the viewers are pissed off at the cheating, lying, and stealing that has become commonplace on the show. So we, the viewers, are unhappy. So what? The ratings have been up this year. That's what REALLY matters. So we threaten we won't watch anymore. Oh well, obviously someone is watching. It really sucks that we, especially those of us who have watched since the summer of 2000, are so low on the priority list.
JUST SO YOU KNOW, ALLISON, IT MATTERS TO US. It says a great deal about your own character that you are allowing this to happen. I, for one, put the blame squarely on your shoulders. I think you are a "sell out" and I think that is a shame. Show a little character and address our complaints. Have the guts to take some responsibility for this mess you've helped to create.
Posted by: powercatgirl85 at September 10, 2009 07:14 AM
As far as the log comp I sent a complaint to CBS, I am hoping Jordon wins cant stand the other too, goooo Jordon.
Posted by: pat at September 10, 2009 07:23 AM
..But HD, Natalie couldn't have been cheating. She said she never cheats you know!!!!
Let's face it, AG doesn't care about fairness, she just cares abut ratings and the loss of expensive equipment so she'll never do anything about either Natalie using the hair elastic or Kevin not pointing forward. It is Big Brother and AG is Big Brother so what she wants is what we get.
Posted by: MistersMom at September 10, 2009 07:24 AM
Oh, and I want Jordan t win part 2 tonight just to give Natalie a fit!
Posted by: MistersMom at September 10, 2009 07:26 AM
just another example of natalie the cheater, we all saw her all season cheat at pool, at chess, i believe it is just a part of her miserable life, but i cannot believe bb let her get away with this, i cant believe her and lydia were rewarded with products to stay in the house. i am very disappointed in bb and ag for allowing this to continue and to happen. i wish kevin and jordan had known she was cheating, yet kevin wasnt turned forward for the log roll either. it is what it is , but im not happy about it. go jordan do well tonight
Posted by: gramy at September 10, 2009 07:36 AM
Morning!
I'm hoping that tonights HOH comp will include those four...a host for the comp and one for each player, and that Jordan gets to play with Janelle! After watching some of the practicing last night it appears that Jordan has an edge....IF she can keep her cool!
I'm not surprised that Natalie found yet another way to cheat. I'm disgusted, but not surprised. In my perfect (imaginary) BB world she would find out tonight that she's got to do something extra or that she's disqualified.
I want Jordan to win...hands down! I used to think that Jordan would get 2nd in any final two scenarios, but if she pulls off the 2nd and then 3rd part of this HOH she just might end up with more votes from the jury that I expected. I would love that!
Happy Thursday everyone!
Posted by: snoopy99 at September 10, 2009 07:37 AM
I think the whole comp was b.s. !!! BB should tell them what exactly to wear so they're all equal and no one should be allowed to have candy or food that's a bunch of crap. Then for both Nat and Kevin to cheat in the comp? Please! It's not right and it disgusts me that they got away with it. I too hope that Jordan wins if for nothing else the principal of it. They are both just not good people to have to lie and cheat every second just to win! Just gross. Don't no how they sleep at night. Please Jordan pull this off!!!!
Posted by: EP at September 10, 2009 07:38 AM
The whole thing is disgusting to me. Even if Jordan wins this final competition, there is a good chance she will be dumb enough to take Nat to the final two with her... the only good thing is she won't have a lot of time to fill her head with lies because it will be during a live final show.
I pretty much don't care who wins at this point. Between the Ditz, the Queen and El Diablo cochina I guess I am going to cheer for the one with no man-hammer.
Posted by: Gregor at September 10, 2009 07:43 AM
oops that probably should have been "cochina del EL Diablo" my Spanish is as rusty as Lydia's chastity belt.
Posted by: Gregor at September 10, 2009 07:51 AM
Natalie makes me SICK. I swear she's a twisted one.
She lies so much-- she believes her own lies.
I can't wait until they all watch the real Natalie when they are able to view the entire Season.
Kevin.......eh, he's a wanna be but still a cheater.
Go Jordan! I hope she kicks hiney and takes names.
Posted by: Nancy at September 10, 2009 07:53 AM
all i can say is NO WAY!!!!!!! i thought i saw that on the show but it wasn't noticeaable. they should kick her out and let Kevo/Jordo be f2...
absolutely dispicable. where's AG? oh yeah, on her way to the bank b/c they've had the highest ratings ever and she has another season to cast.
sucks.
Posted by: val at September 10, 2009 07:59 AM
I'm sure the previous housequests are on to boost ratings since "America" can't stand Gnat and K!
As for the hair tie, debatable...you'd have to watch it for longer to see what she does with her hands. BUT the fact that they both cheated on the log comp. and BB let them slide is a huge problem. Plus going to fish every time they spoke about cheating and throwing the comp. yesterday...BB got something to hide!
Posted by: 3dhouse at September 10, 2009 08:01 AM
I think a lot of things Natalie & Kevin have done this season has been unfair. They out and out cheated in the endurance comp Tuesday. So I feel the win should be taken away from Kevin and something should be played to replace it. How about some Jeff questions :)
I'm hoping that Jordan has the second comp in the bag. I heard Nastalie wasn't that good. I can deal with Kevin but I really don't want to see Nastalie at the end.
Please we all need a miracle NOW.
Can't wait to see Danielle, Janelle,and Evel Dick tonight. Mike Boogie, never have been too crazy about, wish it was Dr. Will.
Posted by: Cerenay at September 10, 2009 08:13 AM
Hi, i agree with the comments. I did not watch bb9 cause of bb8 evil dick/ i don't follow any of his stuff. /i watched the last half of bb10/ did watch all of this season/ it is entertaining and except for hbo there isnt a lot on in the summer./so will i watchnext year/ if nothing better on probably/ while nat is a lier, schemer and mean she played a mental game/i don't think she was a physical competitor- dont believe she throw challenges/ i d like to see kev and jord in final/
Posted by: patty v at September 10, 2009 08:20 AM
HD, thanks for pointing out the band around Natalie's key. She did put the band around the key just as they were starting the comp. I have always liked Jordan, but have not liked Kevin or Natalie. So, of course, I'm for Jordan. Think BB will disqualify Natalie tonight?? That would be a first, huh??
Posted by: lynn0538 at September 10, 2009 08:29 AM
powercatgirl85 I loved what you wrote you should sent that to CBS ,complaints it was the best I have read .
Posted by: pat at September 10, 2009 08:42 AM
Out of the three left I want Jordon to win BB. Alot people said Jordan deserves nothing but I feel she did win a POV and HOH in week 7 on the block 4 times. Kevin won HOH week 9 Pov week 5 and 10 on the block 1 time also won part 1 of 3 parts F HOH by cheating. Nat HOH week 10 Pov no weeks on block 4 time one 5min one got off because chima getting kick out. All three of them laid low first 5 weeks. Jordon had to because two of the 5 weeks on the block. Kevin just stay low. Nat was luck she was with her friends not have to do anything but say I am going to win hoh pov took her 10 weeks. I still do not see how any one play better than the other. I just don't like someone that cheats and lies all the time. I hoping Jordon wins tonight. I think tonight part 2 going to be with past HOH or past who when on the block and went home. Like BB9 and BB10. Go Jordon.
Posted by: Susan at September 10, 2009 08:43 AM
Hope Jordo kicks Ratalie's ass big time...
Can't believe that my two least favorites, Ratalie and Boogie, will be on the same show. I may have to take something to deaden the nausea I already feel.
Posted by: SuZieQ at September 10, 2009 08:50 AM
Well,crap. I wasn't going to watch tonight...just join in on chat. But since Janelle, Dick, Danielle and Boogie will be on, I won't be able to resist.
I sooooo hope one of them gives Gnasty some of her own medicine.
Posted by: SudokuGal at September 10, 2009 08:51 AM
My bad. I can put together a "decent" sentence. However, I misspelled GRAMMAR, so my spelling isn't perfect. I still stand by everything I said in my previous post.
Posted by: powercatgirl85 at September 10, 2009 08:55 AM
I'd like to see Kevin win.
Posted by: me at September 10, 2009 08:58 AM
Is it possible that the reason those past HG will be there tonight is that they will be announcing another All-Stars edition of BB?
Posted by: rowdygirlred at September 10, 2009 09:00 AM
It will be nice to see Danielle, Janelle and Evel Dick tonight could care less about Mike Boogie. I hope Evel Dick calls Gnat and Kevin out if they cheat in this one. It looks like AG and CBS are not going to do anything about. Looks like alot of people wrote a complaint in BB and CBS. Seem like every were you look online you find something else showing the cheating.
I have never seen anyone eating something a comp before not sure why they would let Kevin get away with it. Gnat using her hair tie that is just wrong. They should have taken her out right there for that.
BB and CBS have made there rating for this year and have made there money so why would they step up and do the right thing now. It is very clear that they could care less about the viewers. We need a miracle now so those two cheats done win!
Posted by: simplycountry at September 10, 2009 09:00 AM
First off I agree with you Cerenay, I'd much rather see Dr. Will than Boogie, can't stand that guy.
As for GnastaLIE and the cheating with the hair band, I don't see how it's possible she put the band around the key and her wrist because didn't she move both hands on and off the key during the entire competition? If her wrist was bound to the key she wouldn't have been able to do that, right? Or did BB tell her at some point when they went to trivia to take the band off?
Posted by: Pat at September 10, 2009 09:04 AM
The best scenario would be if Kevin wins and takes Jordan to the finals. Natalie will throw a fit and when Julie interviews her she will throw her "fiance" under the bus.
Posted by: gman at September 10, 2009 09:06 AM
Umm why does BIG BROTHER ALLOW CHEATING? Any one that does should be kicked outa the show. Why do we continue to watch this crap?
Posted by: IMPY at September 10, 2009 09:06 AM
I won't be able to watch the show tonight when it airs! :-(
I have to meet with my Mktg4950 group tonight. Ugh! Don't they know better?! :)
Well, I'll be anxiously awaiting CBS to load the video tonight. I've had to watch it one other time online and it didn't load until 11:30 or 12am I can't remember, so it will be VERY VERY hard not to read your blog before watching it. I don't want to spoil it!
Go Jordan! Go Jordan! Go Jordan!!!!!
Posted by: Samantha at September 10, 2009 09:09 AM
Snoopy, I never would have thought of the guests being partners with the players but that could make sense. We usually only have 1 guest at this point to host the competition.
I was envisioning a sports commentator scenario. Time spent analyzing the player’s individual games.
I do not understand why the 2 obvious rule violations have not been addressed. Perhaps we will see something tonight when they show the results of the competition to those not using feeds.
I honestly can't understand how CBS would benefit by "rigging" the game in favor of Kevin/Natalie. Seriously, viewers are much happier to see an underdog pull off a win. If year after year the final 2 had contained 1 "evil" HG and 1 underdog then I would say that something must be going on in production. But many years the final 2 have been 2 people strongly disliked by the fans. Or 1 really disliked player and 1 player most people don't care about. The concept of shows like BB and Survivor that end with a jury vote deciding the winner does tend to favor disliked players making the final 2. I really don't believe that BB/CBS is pulling strings to let Kevin/Nat win.

Posted by: verity at September 10, 2009 09:21 AM
I should be totally shocked by Nat's repulsive behavior with the elastic tie but I'm not. She's proven to all of us she is capable of anything. What does bother me is that she was not disqualified for this behavior. Surely, if this scene was posted on You Tube, AG and production MUST know about it....along with the other rules they broke.
One thing that puzzles me is that Nat got engaged last Thursday, right? Everyone has been commenting about how she showed no emotion when she saw the BF and he proposed. While she told the HG about getting proposed to, why is she just now bringing it up as to why she wasn't emotional about it and didn't kiss him and cry. Her excuse was that she didn't know what she could or couldn't do on camera. Well, Nat, crying on camera for that reason is a good thing and I'm sure you would not have been scolded by BB afterwards for doing so. Hummmm, personally, I think production clued her in about all the viewer comments so she is trying to defend and justify herself to us NOW. I'd think she would have mentioned why she was emotionless from the git-go - not a week later. Once again, it's fishy.
I really don't think Kev is a bad person, but he got wrapped up in Nat's behavior b/c he had no one else to ally with (so he thought). I know when he gets out of there and watches the show back, he will be disqusted with himself and how he fell for Nat's crap. I can only imagine what his BF is thinking of his behavior too.
I just wish SOMEONE would call Nat out with all the crap she's pulled with backup video so she can't deny any of it.
In closing, something tells me that Nat and Jason will not make it to the alter, and that will be a good thing for Jason.
Posted by: djk at September 10, 2009 09:26 AM
LMAO @ all the crybabies whining about who's cheating now, yet these same people absolutely ate it up when Chima was cheated out of her HOH powers, and jessie was cheated out of a fair chance to play the game all to protect "americas sweethearts" Jeff the incredible dumbass and Jordumb his love interest.
Consistency would be nice. Don't turn your heads to the cheating when its convenient and then act like the world is coming to an end when it isn't.
LOL, think of it like one of those lovely "twists" Grodner likes to use in order to manipulate/cheat the game in her favor with.
(If memory serves me correctly it was Evil Dickhead who was one of the first recipients of the favorable Grodner/CBS helping hand, and to this very day that loser is idolized by some of the same people crying about CHEATING now. Hypocrisy at its finest)
Posted by: Allisonscrewedchima at September 10, 2009 09:56 AM
It's perfect that they are bringing back Evil Dick and Mike Boogie, two of the biggest sleaze bags to ever play BB, to celebrate the upcoming victory of the 3rd biggest sleaze bag, Natalie.
Of course, Janelle, my all-time favorite HG, does not fit into this category.
This show is getting really depressing...
Posted by: raindog at September 10, 2009 09:56 AM
I AM SO DISCUSTED WITH ALISON G. SHE HAS TAKEN THE FUN OUT OF WHAT IN PASS SEASONS HAS BEEN AN INTERESTING SHOW. ALISON WERE ARE YOUR BALLS? SERIOUSLY DO THINK CHEATING IS OK. WHY DONT YOU ANSWER YOUR SHOWS FANS? WELL I CAN ANSWER THAT YOU DONT CARE!! THATS WHY YOU HAD TO SCRAMBLE TO CHANGE AROUND THE WAY THE FINAL 3 IS AIRED TO KEEP PEOPLE WATCHING IF THEY WANT TO SEE JORDAN WIN. I HOPE YOU REMEMBER THIS NEXT SEASON WHEN YOU HAVE NO FANS WATCHING NEXT YEAR. YOU ARE A TERRIBLE PRODUCER. YOU SHOULD BE FIRED FOR YOUR SO CALLED WORK. ITS NOT THAT BB DIDNT GO MY WAY AS FAR AS WHO I WANTED TO WIN THATS THE NAME OF THE GAME. BUT FOR YOU TO LET NASTY NAT AND KEVIN CHEAT IS JUST PLAIN REDICULOUS.I HOPE JORDAN GETS A LAWYER AFTER THE SHOW WHEN FANS LET HER KNOW HOW THESE TWO CHEATED IN THE LOG COMP. AS FOR NASTY NAT YOUR STATE AND FATHER SHOULD BE ASAMED OF YOU.THE ONLY REASON YOUR BF WANTS TO MARRY YOU IS IN CASE YOU WIN PLEASE WHY DIDNT HE PROPOSE BEFORE THE SHOW.YOU ARE AS NASTY, VILE AND AS DUMB AS THEY COME. YOU DONT HAVE A COLLEGE DEGREE. YOU HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD THOUGH. ITS PUBLIC RECORD IN GILBERT AZ. AS FOR KEVIN YOU ARE A DIGRACE TO THE GAY COMMUNITY. YOU TOO ARE A CHEAT AND LIER. THE ONLY DIFFERANCE BETWEEN YOU AND NATY NAT IS THAT YOU TOOK MORE SHOWERS. YOU ARE FAKE AS THEY COME GROW SOME BALLS. ITS AMAZING WHAT NASTY LEVELS PEOPLE WILL GO FOR MONEY, AND THE KILLER PART IS 500K HAS TAXES HAHA SO SPEND WHAT LITTLE YOU GET OUT OF IT FOR YOUR INTEGERTY!
Posted by: nicole at September 10, 2009 10:10 AM
No, no HD! I thought I wanted Jordon to win too, but I caught a small part of BBAD last night and she is going to take Jordon if she wins. We all know in God's green earth that Jordon can't beat her. There is truly something very wrong with this girl (Jordon). She absolutely believes everything that witch is telling her. Now I want Kevin to win because I think he has had it with Gnat and will take Jordon to the final two. Gooooooooooo Kevin. Also, anyone help me here!! I must have missed something because while I was watching BBAD I heard them talking about whoever loses tonight they will go home, does anyone know if things have changed?? Please let me know. See you at the fantastic live blogging:).
From HD - There will be no eviction tonight.
Posted by: xtex88 at September 10, 2009 10:10 AM
I will be so apalled at BB execs if they don't do something about the cheating! Natalie is a snake , a liar and cheat and deserves to not be in the Final Two!
Go Jordan!
Posted by: lynne at September 10, 2009 10:10 AM
Nastalie said BB was suppose to give her a game she could beat Jordan at LOL. That they must not want her to win. I don't know about BB but I know most of America doesn't.
I've come to the conclusion that NastaLIE the LIAR hasn't told any of us the truth about anything. She made up most of it before she came on the show to evoke sympathy or to make herself look good. She is not athletic, she is not experienced in tae kwon do, that is not her boyfriend, the engagement was phony and planned ahead of time, probably for the finale but due to circumstances done early, and she is not 18 (we all knew that). She is only good at lying she gladly put that in her bio. In that same bio she never mentions her boyfriend, mother, siblings. And I haven't heard too much about her life.
Come on BB do the right thing and have questions Jordan would know you owe it to her and to America.
Posted by: Cerenay at September 10, 2009 10:21 AM
Oh yeah! I didn't know Evel, Danielle, Janelle and Mike Boogie were going to be on tonight. I can't wait to see this. Hopefully they will put Gnat in her place or someone will help Jordon or Kevin win tonight. Should be a good show. I wonder when the next show is??
Posted by: xtex88 at September 10, 2009 10:22 AM
What we need to do is next Tuesday night boycott the 2 hour finale. No one watch and guess what AG will snap her head out of her you know what; and maybe we can get back to the good BB days. Remember its all about ratings, so NO Ratings for next Tuesday night.
From HD - There's no way I'm going to boycott. LOL
Posted by: Judy at September 10, 2009 10:38 AM
OK like most of you I too am livid about the cheating, and maybe I have lost my mind but what if Natalie is really not a HG but is really an actress and Kevin and Jordan are the final two and that's why she has openly cheated & spoke about it so openly and CBS & AG & Julie Chen have not addressed it? I know this sounds insane and I am beginning to think I've lost my mind but it is a great way to make people mad as Hell and to get viewers to watch. Also there are 5 HG in the JH and I haven't heard anything about America getting the vote in case of a tie, just a vote for America's choice. Right? So if Natalie is an actress that leaves just Kevin & Jordan as final 2. The only problem with my theory is how does the final hoh fit in? It doesn't but I still think something is fishy with all the in your face cheating and no response from CBS.I guess it's Just my mind working overtime guys. OK send in the guys in white suits with the straight jacket to carry me away. :)
Posted by: Patti at September 10, 2009 11:44 AM
Allisonscrewedchima -- you said (& I'm paraphrasing) that it was inconsistent that fans were complaining about Natalie & Kevin not following the rules, or cheating, in the 1st part of the HOH comp this week, but perfectly happy when Chima was "cheated" (as you put it) out of her HOH powers. The problem with your statement is the use of the word 'cheat' regarding the two scenarios. Cheating means to do something that allows you an unfair advantage AND goes against the rules. Jeff using the Coup D'Etat was entirely within the rules BB had set up for the game, whereas Natalie holding only the rope, or Kevin disregarding BB's orders to face the pool, was NOT within the rules set up for the BB game. If you don't like things like the Coup D'Etat and other special powers and such being a part of BB, you may want to rethink your decision to follow the show, because those types of things are inevitable. However, for those of us that accept that those are a part of BB, and choose to watch and comment on the show anyway, the blatant breaking of rules of the game are very frustrating for us and work against the integrity of the game (integrity, in the sense that fans who watch the show expect there will be an appropriate level of credibility in the premise of the show, which is that a certain situation is set up where players play a game within the rules and confines of the game). The term 'cheat' is objective in this case, not subjective. Natalie & Kevin ACTUALLY cheated and Chima just got very unlucky in her game circumstances. I understand how you feel like she may have been "cheated" out of something, but that is a subjective assessment, and not relative to the kind of cheating the "complainers" are concerned with regarding Nat & Kev.
Posted by: Lisa at September 10, 2009 11:47 AM
Natalie and Keven Cheated for sure. I watched the disgusting cheating, and just hated that Big Brother let them cheat. Why????????????????????????????????????????????????
Posted by: planojudy at September 10, 2009 11:57 AM
AS far as the elastic thing ... I assume Natalie was told during the comp (that of course we did NOT get to see, probably in the commercial break after the competition first started) that she could not tie her hand to her key. However, when she holding on to her rope she clearly was not holding on to the key and therefore she should have have been eliminated. Having her eliminated first probably would not have changed the out come of the comp. I didn't see what the uproar about Kevin standing sideways is about but I assume he either was allowed or kept getting warnings. They should be allowed only one warning before they are disqualified. I was rooting for Russ and Michelle and since they are gone and I have no interest in the remaining houseguest ... I HATE Nat and strongly dislike her 8itch Kevin, I am really only watching it for lack of anything on. Uggghhh, I can't believe I have to say this but right now I can only hope that Jordon wins. Yuck. No matter who wins this season has been a write off, and I hope BB12 is better. I can't wait for another AllStars or a Fan vs Favorite. I would love to see Russ and Michelle back as well as Eric form BB8 to play his own game instead of AP's.

I'm really happy to learn that Evel, Danielle & Janelle will be back tonight. I could do without Boogie... I never liked him anyway. Would've rather had Dr.Will (pun intended).
My dream scenario for the BB alumni appearance would be this: BB Production announces (on air) that Natalie and Kevin are both disqualified for cheating during part 1 of the comp. So Jordan is the default winner of part 1. Then Natalie & Kevin are informed (on air) that they're being evicted from the game (ala Chima) for stealing & vandalizing others' property.
Then Evel, Janelle, Danielle & Boogie vie for participation in part 2 of the comp. 2 of the 4 win & play. The other 2 go to the jury house. :)

HD I was the 2nd caller on express lunch today and I asked Chelsia about the cheating and they both made all kinds of excuses as to why it may not be cheating. I even mentioned to Chelsea about how in her season Natalie wrote things on a paper towel and BB removed it from her but they let Natalie keep her made up calander this season. I don't know if I'm losing it or what but I think something really big is gonna happen tonight and that's why they won't address it.

Will they air both hoh comps tonight? AG royally screwed up this season. 1) poor vetting of HGs 2) blatant favortism 3) endorsed cheating 4) updates to some HGs 5) allowing theft 6) pamperinf poor sportsmanship. Horrible season, horrible house guests only jeff, casey and jordon seemed to have any redeeming qualities as good human beings. All else are either vile, cheaters, liars, slut or violent.
FUN GAME:
Assign each of the seven deadly sins to one or more HGs. Not all HGs have to be named but all sins do. I will post mine in a minute.

And Allisonscrewedchima, the coupdetat was not cheating... it was part of the game. it's not comparable to what natalie and kevin did in the comp.

I am not surprised Gnatt is cheating, but i am shocked that she would be allowed to cheat. She should have been disqualified a long time ago. I so want Jordan to win. Gnatty doesnt deserve to win and she is all fake. Nuthing bout her is real or true. She started with a lie and her whole performance is a lie. Gnatty hurts peeps for no reason but to make herself feel better. As for Kevin, he needs to gow some balls and take Gnatty out. I am so disappointed that the show would take this turn and let peeps cheat, Evil was cruel but he didnt outright cheat. I will be here for the live bloggs but i wont watch the show. They are just running over Jordan and don't give a flying crap how they do it. Gnatty told Jordan the other night she didnt need to unpack. Who the hell does she think she is? I want Jordan to win all the way. Gnatty neds to be disqualified tonight then we have our final 2 tonight.....

I wish they would have brought back Dan and Memphis. I would tune in for that, as it is, limiting myself to your updates only!! I really don't care to see any of those former HGs. Just still sick at the thought of the Gnat being final two. The liar and the cheater. Ugh.
Posted by: Joeysue at September 10, 2009 12:59 PM
I'm with you HD, no way I will boycott. I may be very discusted with the cheating and the way they got away with it, and I voiced that complaint on the form, but looks like they are going to do nothing about it.
Will be very glad to see Evil Dick, absolutely LOVED him season 8. The others are fun too. But ED has been my favorite hamster of all time.
Heres to hoping Jordan can pull one out of her butt. Have not really liked her this season, her dumb blonde act gives all us blondes a bad name. But out of the 3 remaining she is the least disgusting. Thought I might like Kevin to win, but I can't stand cheaters, so he went out the window. However the worst nightmare GnataLIE might pull if off & then OMG, what a loss.
Come on Jordan!!
Posted by: Debi F at September 10, 2009 01:05 PM
As if Natalie's further cheating in the game is a scandalous surprise. It's beyond frustrating to see this repugnant thing in the finals. BB better give Jordan a protective detail cuz I could see Natalie morphing into Ryan Jenkins. If I were her fauxance, I would enter the witness relocation program, pronto. As for all of these scheduling changes, it's a waste. I'm not interested in watching this train wreck play out. AG screwed her loyal fans with this stinkbomb scenario. I hope it blows up in her face.
Posted by: katy at September 10, 2009 01:07 PM
First to those that think there might be teams of hamsters and celebs tonite, only Natalie and Jordon are playing. Kevin the cheating winner of part 1 doesn't play tonite. He plays the winner of part 2 in part 3. Definately not happy with what was let go on in part 1 by Natalie and Kevin and the proof was right in front of our eyes, captured for all to see. To the person who feels that "Chima was cheated out of her HOH" & "Jessie was cheated out of being able to play the game" was equivalent to the out right cheating in the part 1 comp is in no way comparable as the former was all part of the game and the latter was just plain personal cheating for self gain.

i wont boycott i will watch the finale. im just tired of the cheating, i dont care if kevin or jordan wins, i just dont want nat to win. she won an hoh, she was just luckier at her guess. jordan did win a veto, but jeff gave her the hoh. kevin has truly won the hoh and vetos. i am hoping kevin wins and takes jordan. cant wait for nat to walk out the door with no money. and i will watch again next year, i love bb, but the production staff needs to make people follow the rules, i dont believe jeff given a power from america was a cheat it was to shake the game up, now jesse getting to step in as hoh, that was not fair to those who competed. but it is what it is. i still hope jordon does get 2nd place money, she and her family need it, but i voted for michelle for the 25k, that girl was put through hell and she pulled herself up everytime.

Have people been emailing the CBS feedback link to complain about the cheating issues regarding the Log jam?
Posted by: NYCJUDE at September 10, 2009 01:18 PM
LMAO @ all the crybabies whining about who's cheating now, yet these same people absolutely ate it up when Chima was cheated out of her HOH powers...
Well, except that the cootie-TAH power was already in play before Hirochima even competed for HOH. The only way you could really say that Chima was cheated out of anything is if AG ignored the actual vote count and just awarded the coup to Jeff anyway. I don't think that happened in this case, since most people on the blogs and boards said that they were voting for Jeff and voting often at that. There really should be some sort of audit, though, since CBS charges for the text votes.
If anything, Chima, by getting herself kicked out, cheated Michele out of her HOH room.
Posted by: gray at September 10, 2009 01:43 PM
Hey, Paula. How come you didn't put Gnat's name beside pride and envy? I think a good case could be made for putting her name with all seven sins.
Posted by: gray at September 10, 2009 01:47 PM
Well I don't know, but I would bet my life that Dick, Boogie, Janelle and Danielle will not be allowed to make any comments about cheating. Why? Because those fans who only watch CBS don't have a clue that anything resembling cheating has taken place; only the feed/BBAD watchers know what's really going on. Why? Because of CBS editing! So I say they will have instructions not to say anything. Now having said that, I would think Dick would still try to push the envelope! Anybody agree with this thought and that you would be surprised of anything comes up about possible cheating? BB/CBS doesn't want to show us the truth, only their version of it!
Posted by: Pat at September 10, 2009 01:56 PM
I just give up.
BB is a game with very few rules.Clearly the hamsters can pick and choose which ones they want to follow.
Natalier makes me physically ill.
The original concept of Big Brother (per Orwell) was an all-controlling power.
AG wants ratings, well she got them this season.
She is BB and we have no say in the matter.
I guess overall it was a fun season.
Michele for favorite hamster!
Jordan for the win!!
Looking forward to tonight.
Thanks for all you do Ms Dame!
Posted by: Maru at September 10, 2009 02:06 PM
Hey HD was just wondering if anyone has said or addressed how they are going to handle the voting next week to determine the winner since there will only be 6 in the jury there are usually 7 so there won't be a tie. Have they said if america will get to vote or the studio audience or what. I haven't heard. Maybe you or others could shed some light on it.
Thanks a million. Keep up the great work.
Posted by: Dawn at September 10, 2009 03:14 PM
I thought earlier in the season when Kevin repeatedly suggested that America always votes for cute white people that this season a minority would HAVE to win.
Posted by: Karen at September 10, 2009 03:14 PM
Gregor,
Does your Spanish phrase translate to...doll of the devil?
My take on the cheating is...maybe it wasn't cheating if Natalie's hand was touching the key in some way...and maybe they were told to face front as a safety precaution as opposed to a rule. If it is determined that the Bobbsey twins cheated then Jordan should be the winner of HOH part one. That would make me overcome with joy. I think AG needs to address this issue to BB fans instead of ignoring the situation.
Wishing n praying n hoping n praying that our little blond bombshell frosts Gnat's butt with a win tonite.
Betty
Posted by: Betty at September 10, 2009 03:22 PM
When Kevin bounced Michelle, the vast majority labeled that the wrong decision, with AG actually going so far as to say it was the 2nd dumbest decision of the season.
Bouncing Jordan would have meant Gnat had far less chance of winning HOH; however, that would also mean Gnat would be far less Pro-Kevin. Given Gnat's bond with truth and honesty, can anyone be sure she wasn't going to blindside him anyways? Bottom line, given the comments I've read, the majority felt partnering with Michelle was even a question, should have been obvious to Kevin. How dumb???
Regardless of which way Kevin went, an F2 with Kevin-Gnat remained a possibility. However, by bouncing Michelle, a Kevin-Michelle match was deep sixed while a Kevin-Jordan matchup remains alive. And there in lies the brilliancy of Kevin's move. Given juries propensity to vote for the best game player, don't Kevin's odds of winning the 500K go up exponentially against Jordan versus Michelle.
So, Kevin decided to shoulder the increased risk of not making the F2 verses the increased odds of winning it all. How dumb????
Finally, the 500K aside, Kevin increased his odds of winning HOH and having the opportunity to deep six Gnat. If you ask me, screw the money, go for her throat! Oh, Kevin, when you run into AG, just smile!

HD, I vote for YOU as favorite hamster! You put up with more shit than all of the HGs put together! Thanks for everything this year! While the show was a bit of a bore... it was always hopping here. Great job! GO JORDAN!
From HD - Thank you! :)
Posted by: Philly Bob at September 10, 2009 03:29 PM
Good call Gray, she is a absolutely despicable.
Posted by: Paula at September 10, 2009 03:47 PM
Why don't we just complain to Julie Chen's husband. Isn't he in charge of CBS?
I know its a done deal with this season but our outrage should be taken to the highest level.
I honestly don't think Jordan will win anything. She has proven time and time again that she is gullible and not able to think clearly. I feel so sorry for her as they are taking advantage of her like sharks toying with their food before they eat it. Yes I will hope that she wins but the odds are just not in her favor. I have realized how much this game has pissed me off and how much I have been a fool to even care about it. AG knows that if Jordan would get kicked off game tonight most people will not watch the show on Sunday or Tuesday and that is the only reason she is keeping Jordan in the house. She is a Bitch for doing that. I can't stand her and the only one I really like is Julie Chen. AG is bringing Janie back for us too so we don't miss tonight. She must think we will put up with her shit because she is dangling our favorites in our faces. Of course I have to watch. I am hooked. I hope I can have the strength to not watch next summer if I am still alive lol. I do think we should write to Julie Chen's husband and get rid of the Bitch AG. Sorry for the profanity. I am just fed up with seeing another show favorite go down in flames. My appologies. Thanks HD for letting me vent. Have a great winter all.
Posted by: MaBella at September 10, 2009 04:08 PM
i think tonight will be a Q&A/basketball shoot. Ir you get a question right, you get a shot, whoever makes the most shots, wins.
The past guests will be on to prep us for a "bad guy" to win, as almost all of our favorites is gone.
After the developments over the course of the last week or two, this show has become a car wreck, and I am a rubbernecker. It's one of those things where you know you shouldn't stare at the mangled bodies on the side of the road, but you just can't help yourself. As much as I want Jordan to win, I realize that I have as much of a chance to win the million dollar lottery jackpot tonight. So I'll cross my fingers for the both of us, I won't walk under any ladders and throw salt over my shoulder should I spill any.
my favorite part of finale night will be the america's choice award, because it would probably be someone I like. It is highly unlikely that the final 2 will have anyone that I would be happy for.

Gregor,
Does your Spanish phrase translate to...doll of the devil?
No Betty, I was trying to find the Spanish equivalent of Devil-Pig.
I don't care for the floaters and liars coming out ahead in this game. Maybe there should be a Bonus Vote that goes to the Final Two Hamster that won the most competitions during the season...
Thanks HamsterDame for everything you do, if not for you I might have been forced to actually watch the feeds this season! Here's hoping that next season's villains are at least deserving of a long run in BB if they make it that far. This season has puttered along like an Edsel. Never really worked that well and will only be remembered for how much it sucked.
Posted by: Gregor at September 10, 2009 04:17 PM
This made me laugh a little. ED had a gag order placed on him until the 10th, but I guess he had to let loose the day before:
Evel Dick: "Big Announcement.... The final three is so fucking horrible this year that they are going to have a triple eviction and tell them all to kill themselves, that they suck, America hates them (except Jordan, but she won't understand anyhow) and that they are replacing them with myself, JP, MB & DR. That way at least someone might watch the final episodes and give a fuck what happens."
Posted by: Carolyn at September 10, 2009 04:21 PM
Carolyn I would pay money to see that happen; that is hi-larious and truly ED for ya! Could you only imagine if that were true? There hasn't been much to smile about this last week when it comes to BB, but this did it for me anyway. Thanks for sharing.

Hi I would like to say a big "Thank You" to silly-hamster for another great year, I'm not sure how I would make it thru BB without you, you are a life-saver. What are they gonna do about the cheating in round 1? I'm a Jordan fan from now on!! Thank goodness she won tonight. I hope she is the Big Winner!!! and takes Nat, no one in the jury house likes her :)... Well I will be looking forward to the 15th, and next year with you. Have a good year. Thank you Your #1 fan Frances from Alabama
