Members DRW50 Posted September 10, 2011 Members Share Posted September 10, 2011 I agree. I think she just doesn't have the usual BB personality (LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME) and she doesn't glom onto the vets. I find it odd sometimes when people criticize her for being "mean" to Rachel, when Jordan, who was dismissive of Rachel (even on live TV, after Rachel had basically saved her) is still seen as a little angel. Neither lady is a saint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 Why is "She's a veteran" a good thing? The veterans ended up being a disaster this year. Just look at Jordan and Jeff continuing to spread poison in the jury house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 Go Rachel! She was my fave all season and I think or at least hope she won this. I think she has Brendan, Jordan, Jeff, Adam and maybe Danielle's vote lol..how is that possible when they cross promote the shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 There's no way the producers were not going to have a vet win. I'm mostly glad Adam didn't get second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 Go Rach! I knew she'd win and so glad she did! One of the few tmes a fave of mine does win. WTF?!? Jeff is America's favorite? Really? His popularity didnt die this year? Id have thought Jordan would get it before him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 Jeff is always going to be popular. He's good looking, cocky, and gets a good edit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 DOING A HAPPY DANCE FOR RACHEL!! YES!! SO DESERVED! I hope this isn't the last we see of her. Ofcourse Jeff won America's fav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted September 15, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted September 15, 2011 OMG!!! What the fack, Shelley!!?? I knew Rachel was going to win, but I thought she was going to win based on Adam's vote. Shocked that Adam voted for Porshe. Rachel is the first BB winner that I don't respect as a winner because I believe she was assisted by Alison Grodner who made it easier for Rachel to get through. I've disliked winners before, like Jun (BB4) or Maggie (BB6) or Dick (BB8), but I respected their wins. Alison Grodner got to wish and now this guarantees we'll see Rachel again for Big Brother: All Stars. Notice how the 2nd competition was a timed competition - that was a "just in case Rachel loses the first competition". It was a way Grodner could've guaranteed Rachel in the final 2. Here's my last F.U. to Allison Grodner. I really hope she moves on to do something else. Rachel and "deserved" don't go together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 IDA. Rachel did deserve this. I think the basis for the discrepency is based on the Pandora Box twist but take that away and Rachel still won the veto on her merits. The Pandora Box twist only helped Jordan stay in the house longer as she did nothing to benefit from that and it was a waste and she failed to do anything after that to protect save herself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted September 15, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted September 15, 2011 Nobody will ever convince me Rachel deserved this. I don't believe someone deserved to win if you have a producer who is helping you to win. I look at competitions to see if they are fair and I did not see fairness this year. I don't remember having this sour feeling over competition fairness ever. I'm so glad there are other people who see this victory as a tainted one and I hope more people call out Allison Grodner's bullsh!t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 15, 2011 Members Share Posted September 15, 2011 For me that veto she won the week of PB - the one that was just like a competition she'd already won - was most blatant. I'm glad Jordan and Jeff didn't win, or Adam, but I'm sorry that a nasty person like Brendan might get his hands on that money. I hope she gets away from him.
