If you ain't with me you're against me... It was the battle of the bronze last night on Survivor: Heroes Vs. Villains, and I was not so happy with the outcome. Many people watching at home can't understand how Russell can have so much control over the game. Since I know him, I absolutely understand what he is doing and why.

 

Russell, in real life, is different from the character he plays on TV. Russell is charming in this weird way that you can only understand if you know him personally. As I watched at home during my season and saw him call me names, I tried to explain to my parents why I trusted him the way that I did. The second my parents met him, they told me they understood. Now every time anyone asks my mom what she thought of him, she says, "He's charming in a weird way, I like him." With that being said, the moment I watched the battle between Rob and Russell, I knew that Russell would ultimately win.

 

Anyway, at the start of the episode, Boston Rob said how shocked he was with the outcome of tribal. He said so himself that something doesn't feel right. How can it be that they feel so confident with only three of them? There has to be someone playing both sides.

 

Back at Camp Hero, Colby is in shock that he has made it as far as he has considering he's felt he was going to leave more than once. I don't know how anyone can feel safe at tribal. The second you feel safe is the second you are leaving. That's how I see it! I think Colby is in the right mindset.

 

What about that challenge? More food...they are lucky this season. I was so happy to see the Heroes finally win. Looks like they have their stuff together and are figuring out what they need to do in order to win. Now with Boston Rob gone, they might luck out even more considering the villains have voted off their strongest physical player.

 

Side note: It's funny how I watch now, I notice every single time it rains.

 

I loved the focus on the alliance between Jerri and Coach, maybe there is a little showmance brewing. A girl can always dream! That would be fun to watch! I thought Coach was a villain? Why is he so caught up on lying then?

 

I need to point out a few things regarding the immunity challenge. First, now I see why Courtney never participates. She is insanely weak and performed poorly in the challenge. I thought she might break into pieces while running across the rope. They won't get rid of her though, because she isn't playing the game and therefore, she's not a threat to them.

 

Trainers Tip #7 - It's easier to make it far in the game if you don't play. Playing the game and trying to make moves can put a target on your back. When I went into the game, I was going to play the hardest I could because I would have rather played and not made it far then to have no played at all and made it extremely far. I wanted to be a deserving winner if I would have won. Personally, riding someone's coat tails is not a way to play, but hey, who am I to say!?

 

I was glad to see the Heroes win again. The villains are self-destructing. Back at camp, while trying to decide who to vote out, Russell made yet another bold move when he casually mentioned he wanted to target Sandra and Courtney while they sat right in front of him. Come on, Russell! I do remember when he told me the same thing to my face that one of us girls had to go. I looked at him in disbelief. Maybe he didn't catch the memo that some women are stronger then some men. Why is it that Russell can only seem to make alliances with women?

 

So now to tribal. Yes Russell showed his loyalty to Parv and I think that was a huge move for him. Would Boston Rob do that? Meh, probably not. However, getting rid of the strongest physical player may not be the right move. I am so sad to see Boston Rob go. As many of you know, I really loved Boston Rob and thought he was by far the strongest physical threat.

 

This season has become the best season I have ever seen.
