BB9 - Live Feeds Into Thursday Morning

Hmmm ... not sure I'd want him to be MY head of house. One thing about Adam, though, he has his friends on both sides of the fence. It will be an interesting reign.

Here's what's been happening in the Big Brother House of Baller Rules:
  • The crew agreed that Alex had been voted back because America wanted to see how he would do without Amanda.
  • Ryan and Natalie worked on Adam in the HOH room while everyone else was downstairs. Natalie is on an anti-James mission.
  • Natalie thinks if Adam puts up both Sharon and Chelsia, James will win POV and take one down. She wants him to put up one girl (Chelsia preferably) and Joshuah. Or, better yet, put up both Joshuah and James and one would definitely go home even if POV was used.
  • Joshuah told James and Sharon that it was his time to go on the block -- he'd rather go up than them. (But he didn't say he wants to go home!)
  • Sheila wanted some of Adam's HOH beer. He wouldn't share.
  • Joshuah and Ryan talked privately. Joshuah wants Sheila on the block. Ryan told him he has to try to make a deal with Adam.
  • Ryan told Adam that Sheila lied to his face all week.
  • Natalie kept telling Adam they have the numbers to get one of "them" out this week.
  • Joshuah told Ryan that he thinks Adam will backdoor him.
  • Joshuah talked to Adam who told him he's thinking of putting James and Chelsia up, but asked him not to tell them.
  • Joshuah made a secret alliance deal with Adam similar to the one he has with Ryan.
  • After campaigning for him to put James and Chelsia up, Joshuah told James that Adam never mentioned him.
  • Natalie smugly told James that she has an idea of how this week will go. He'll need her vote and won't have it.
  • The HG were told a mystery event was ahead.
  • It's a midnight (3 AM here) luxury comp!
  • Joshuah and Sheila won a movie night.
  • They talked about the original "dirty little secrets" theme for the show. Apparently they were told that in the interview process. Chelsia's mother was upset with the theme. (Probably ain't too happy now either.)
  • They tried to figure out each other's secrets.
  • They're now all settled in for the night as I get this posted.

Good Morning Jackie, thanks for the long night of work you put in.
About Matt's eviction: How much does James crave the spotlight?! His feigned surprise and nervousness at being called on to break the tie and send Matt home. I really expected the BB editors to insert a clip from 1 week before that had Matt crowing that James left. Poor James didn't get the one on one in the HOH with Julie...I wonder if he noticed?

Whatever deals Adam made the first night may be what guides him. I don't know who they are, just that he seems to have a plan and is sticking to it. (which goes along with the Horton hears a Who release...but that isn't a CBS tie in, is it)To be this far into the season and not even have your hgs know where you stand is pretty difficult.

Hands Down Pants isn't cool. Incessant, uncontrollable itching can be a symptom of kidney (or is it liver?)problems. That would tie in with the baby food. We heard him say his doctor "saved his face" after his wreck, does that have anything to do with his twitchiness? I am not excusing his repulsive behavior of touching and not washing or any of the numerous other things, but since the first week, I have been thinking of the itching having a medical reason to it.

Eventually Adam will listen to Sheila, despite secret " alliances " Josh and Ryan perhaps even James " Adam raised his hand after Julie asked if they had known Alex was in the box, would they had changed their voting process, Adam voted for Ryan's eviction, he may appear wishy washy ( probably is ) I don't believe he'll actually trust any of them other than Sheila and Nat, If Adam realizes, James is willing to throw Chelsea under the bus ( which doesn't surprise me )Sheila questioned Chelsea regarding ( James/Chelsea's fake fight ) whether indeed it was staged, thus Adam in return, should realize James perhaps used Chelsea without her knowledge, Sheila's annoying, she's much better at manipulating and convincing than any other lying HG, Snakey James realized this; IMO he allowed his lower head to overlook those facts, Matt was all talk, he reminded me of guys who'll brag about women giving a " tough bad boy appearance, Real bad boys who degrade women; don't EVER speak about their Mom's, in fact women should be cautious anytime a man curses his Mom regardless of age, all current HG's have lied and manipulated one another, some worse than others, after all its BB, a good player realizes this, trust issues should never be a number one factor, on who'll be placed on block, your initial gut instincts ( if you have any ) who you believe is actually playing a better game should be, James felt Sheila was, Survivor players make this mistake over and over, due to greedy thoughts ( Voting out Joel instead of Chet was a big joke )a stronger physical player is who you want to get rid of, ONLY if you have NO alliance team.. The house is divided despite Sheila, Josh, whoever else believes their playing both sides, either way smart move is breaking James/Chelsea, perhaps backdoor James or Josh.

Please........please....... please Adam........get James out this week. How lovely is that thought, Matt and James in sequester together? I used to like Matt, but was really disturbed last night when he told Julie, Nat is a nice girl but he had no other feelings for her. How nice of him to use her in the sexual way he did then....he is pig of the year. And James is even more digusting, pubic hair floating around and all. Chelsia has a fine catch there! If Adam doesn't take this opportunity to break up those idiots this week, then he deserves whatever comes after. Hopefully Nat concentrates on the game now, doesn't crawl into bed with anyone else, and gets herself some self worth. I am all for either Nat or Ryan.........and that is only because what have to choose from? There really isn't a decent person in that house this time around. I honestly don't think I will watch another season, it is all to pornigraphic anymore!

Sue,excessive itching is a sign of liver problems...trust me,that I know.I would hope the itching is something he just can't stop,instead of just being a disgusting habit.he still repulses me,not matter the reason.I also think they should break out the flip-flops,cause I think it's going to be another week of changing on the hour.

I guess Adam should try and rid the house of a)couples left or b)stronger players. That means James/Chelsia/Josh or Sharon.Sheila can't win anything and Ryan has no game(he thinks he does)and Gnat is all about revenge now.Also Gant won't be able to keep her mouth shut about what she intends to do,it all comes out eventually.

What weens they were to leave it up to James to be the bad guy. I'm glad that Matt got the boot. And who was Julie last night...the wicked witch of the West Coast???

Sydney said...

ROFLMAO Jax. I wouldn't want Adam as head of MY house either.

Anonymous said...

for some reason I kept flashing back to Jun and Allison, I didnt care for either one, yet they ended up in the end.
I havent found one redeeming person, that is playing a good game, and is likeable. If Adam lets sheila run his HOH, it will not surprise me.
I think Adam really wants ryans approval....sheesh....what a season....Joshuah welll Im just shaking my head, he sure knows how to make the secret deals.
Right now Sharon is the least offensive person to me...
Jackie you are a rockstar, a hero...thank you thank you!

Sydney said...

Why would Adam's itching just be in his crotch or down the back of his pants if it were a liver problem? and I am totally missing the baby food reference and any mention of a wreck? AS mucha s I read and watch I missed this completely.

So Adam must have said on the feeds in the early days that he was in a big car wreck, and he had a lot of facial injuries, and the docs helped... I do see a big scar on his mouth in his bio pic... and Shelia was asking about his pain meds, so maybe this accident was recent. Percocet and percodan -- any of those barbituate based drugs do make you itch too, but it's on the nose!

Sue, can you fill me in more? I think we're all looking for a way to deal with Adam's quirks to survive the week!

Sydney said...

Sharon -- Thursday Finally!!!

Sydney said...

PS: Sue -- um, I just went back and read Jackie's previous post and see the baby food reference there, duh. I thought he'd been eating baby food for some part of this grub in the house all this time and I missed that part.

Good morning--is it morning?? My pooch and I didn't get much sleep. She came home late yesterday, on lots of meds and with a sling around her belly so she doesn't put weight on her back leg. Of course, I'm the one holding the sling and carrying her backside up/down stairs to go potty(so far all the pottying has been in her bed!). She's breaking my heart--crying and looking at me with sad eyes. I don't know if she's in pain, wants me with her, or needs to go out!! It's like a small child who is sick. I'm calling the Vet. for further guidance this morning(and some tranquilizers--for her and me!) Thanks to everyone for your inquiries--you are the best.

Adam the new HOH--this will be fun! Who is he really going to let run the HOH....Sheila, Ryan, James or Natalie. They all think they are controlling him. We'll see if Adam is really playing the game.

How funny that the two people who hate each other the most get to have a movie night together!

I didn't care for the format of the HOH. It was obvious there was a list of names to choose from on the podiums(watch Adam). First round-Josh and Chelsia--random drawing--hmmm. Good way to eliminate one of James allies right away.

So are James/Chel. still going to pretend to not be a couple? Maybe it's James way of phasing out that relationship(although he does seem to care for her).

Hope no one here has been affected by the flooding in the mid-west.

My "Josie" dog is sleeping I think I will too.

Happy first day of spring :)

RBennie said...

How funny is it that Adam won HOH by guessing? I was actually happy to see him win. I really didn't want Chelsia to get it. It will be interesting to see in which direction the ultimate floater will swing. Adam won't be able to continue playing both sides after this. I have to say though, as annoying as Sheila may be, she can be very well spoken and convincing in her arguments. I would like to see her win HOH and see what she'd do with it.

Dido Sydney's comment--Yes, Sharon it is finally Thursday. For you it probably seems like an eternity. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for good news.

Adam was in a bad accident in the fall(I think). Had severe facial damage and I don't know what else. He has made reference to pain meds that he takes. I was wondering if he acquired a taste for baby food during recovery of his surgeries.
Any excuse for the itching works for me....anything better than it just being a nasty habit!!

syd--I'm sending you an e-mail later today.

RBennie said...

Tom's - I can't believe someone else watches Road Rules - I thought I was the only one. Did you see that finale last night. I thought the Vets deserved to lose. They were busy worrying about getting rid of "the weak girls", that they forgot about the huge problem of EZ. Talk about poetic justice. It also showed just how pathetic that Rookie team was - they even had to win by default.

Anonymous said...

I don't have a clue as to why Adam itches. I was just saying that itchiness can have a medical reason. The only reason I remember his mentioning a bad accident was that I read a comment somewhere that after his telling Sheila about it and how awful it was, her response was first to ask what meds he had. She wanted them. I also read (didn't hear it myself, so it could be a rumor) that early in the game Adam didn't mind sharing his pain meds and that was around the time of the hot tub orgy night. Since then, the story went, he has been only given necessary doses for him alone. Meds can cause itchiness, too.

Sharon talked of having a car wreck that scared her to death ( I think she ended upside down in a ditch?) I don't think she was injured, but she said it gave her a new appreciation for life. I think Natalie may have also said she was in a wreck. Have they all had car accidents?

Nana, so difficult when you want to help and can't.

Sue

Sydney said...

Thanks Sue, Nana, Sharon. I am TOTALLY looking for ways to explain Adam, lol, so at least your comments give me something to think about as possibilities!

boo said...

I have been trying to post for what seems like weeks----but is only a few days. I think I have finally figured it out-at least for today!

It's official! I don't really love Reality TV, I just enjoy Jackie, Zoetawny, and all you Bloggers! I may give up watching and just read! Thank you all so much.

Sharon... let us know as soon as you can.

nana in the nw ... I feel so sorry for your baby (and you too). I know from experience that it'll get better every day... you just feel so helpless when there's nothing you can do to make them feel better. Keep us posted.

I haven't gotten over the toilet paper incident with Adam, so spare me the itching for the moment.

***********************
Oh my, I loved Rookies win! I rooted for them, although I like Evan and CT, Frank is my favorite, I was excited with the rookies win, I watched finale twice..Probably will again, editing was brilliant.. I'm still blown away, I have a 20 year old daughter who is begging to get placed on a reality show, stressing me out, I have a nephew who is on a reality show, my daughter changed her pre-med degree, is now pursuing Radio/TV Darn it..I felt terrible for Eric, however TJ stated the rules carefully. Wow I'm elated for our Rookies.

joy n said...

I can't imagine Joshuah and Sheila enjoying a movie or anything else together.

Ah, Josh, the wheeler-dealer, plotter, schemer. It's bound to bite him in the butt somewhere down the line.

Maybe Adam and Gnat's accidents are their reason for reading the bible. It's too bad Gnat doesn't seem to comprehend what she's reading. She appears to twist all those words into what she wants them to be.

Tom S. and Rbennie, I'm also a big fan of The Gauntlet. I taped it and haven't had a chance to watch it yet, (I will tonight) but am so happy to hear that the Rookies won! The cockiness of the Vets drives me crazy. I have to say, Tom S., that CT scares me the way he goes off on people. I always wonder why they keep bringing him back. Well, at least he didn't attack anyone this season. And I loved that Coral went home rather than show the world that she would have gotten her butt kicked in the gauntlet. Hope she won't be invited back next time.

RBennie said...

So sorry Joy N. I didn't mean to give away the ending of The Gauntlet, but I truly didn't think anybody else on here watched it.

Zoetawny said...

((((nana))))

Found your post finally. It sure must have been a rough night for you and Josie. :( Not knowing what Josie is trying to tell you is one of the hardest stages of her recovery, at least for you. It does break your heart when they're looking at you with their sad eyes not understanding why this is going on. I hope your vet can give Josie some medication for pain. Then perhaps she can sleep through the first few days which are usually the worst. Hopefully, each day will get a little better for both of you.

Joining in with everyone here saying thanks to Jackie for putting in such hard work keeping us updated. Jackie ROCKS!

Gotta run now.
Ciao!

oh my goodness! I just got home and I turned on the feeds, but was not near the computer screen. There was no sound for long enough that I forgot they were even on. All of a sudden there was a loud terrible sound! It scared me. I thought someone was outside and it sounded like they were ripping the siding off the house. Turns out, I finally realized, it was Adam and someone in the HOH opening sacks, wrappers and chewing something. I cancelled the feeds, but still have a few days left on the free time. I don't want to listen, but usually do. too bad for me. : )

Ryan talked to Adam and now Natalie is with Adam. He is a popular guy today. Natalie doesn't like James and says you can't trust him. (I type that just in case no one already knew she felt that way) God gave 'her side' the HOH, she says. Natalie suggests Chelsia and James, with Josh as a possible. She wasn't buying that James and Chelsia were broken up. She is telling Adam that he will make Matt proud by who he sends to the jury house. That it will make Matty smile if he sends James or one of them.

Poor Matty, Nat says, he didn't get to play. James sent him home because James knew that Matt could have had Chelsia if he wanted her and that was why James needed to get rid of Matt. So says Natalie to Adam.

Sue

Sydney said...

OMG is Natalie deluded. Matt could get Chelsia? does Chelsia want him ? No... (um, though that doesn't explain wh she kissed him). I would LOVE for Natalie to learn abyout that... but she will blame Chelsia and not Matt for that, just like she wanted Sharon out.

Why would Adam give a hoot if Matt were proud of him. Natalie, get better arguments. you're making Shelia look like a master mind when it comes to persuasion. Actualy Shelia isn't bad at persuasion, it's just her delivery...and that never stops.

Anonymous said...

Joyn-Is there any chance the accident Adam and Gnat are talking about was at sometime prior to entering the house...they knocked heads? (just having fun)

Nana NW-I hope Josie is doing much better. Hopefully you can catch a nap when she naps.

It should be interesting to see who Gnat sticks close to now that Matt is gone. I recall Matt telling her to stay close to Ryan. It is a little funny that Gnat can figure out that James/Chelsia were not really fighting, however she can't think for herself in her own relationship with Matt. Love is blind, so they say.

Too bad Adam cannot see through Shelia. She is going to burn him when she has to.

I think it would be a blast to have Dick come in banging on the pots and pans for the wake up call and Danielle spilling everyones secrets of what they have said and done to each other and leave the house. The HG would be left wondering if they were dreaming it or did it really happen. Can you see their faces? Priceless I would say.

Anonymous said...

Evil Dick being on the show will be the highlight of this pitiful season. i usually just lurk but thought i would add my 2 cents. this is the saddest group of young adults. is this all CBS could come up with? No better cross section of America than these fools? I hopoe people in other countries are not watching. I am shaking my head every time I watch and read these posts. I almost miss Waaaaamber....karin - does anyone watch rob and big on MTV? now that is funny.

joy n said...

Nana - Hope Josie's doing better this pm. It is heartbreaking to feel so helpless even though you know you're doing all you can to make her comfortable. If only we could talk to them. All you can do is take it a day at a time.

Rbennie, no problem. In this age of reality spoilers, I most likely would have watched the end of the tape first anyway, to see who won it. I like spoilers.

Patty, In that house, I'm betting most of these HGs have had their heads "knocked" a few too many times.

I sure hope Adam sees past Gnat's and Sheila's self-serving suggestions for what they are. Plus, I hope he thinks about how quiet the house could be with either of them gone.

I loved that Coral went home rather than show the world that she would have gotten her butt kicked in the gauntlet. Hope she won't be invited back next time.
**********************
My thoughts exactly, I cannot stomach Coral, I believe the only reason CT returned is simply because he's one of the oldies If there's such a word, LOL, CT calmed down quite a bit after he met Tanya, I apologize for writing any spoilers, CT will surprise you during Eric's incident, It's doubtful Coral, nor CT along with many older Vet's return for the next Gaut
