Survivor: Tocantins -- The Brazilian Highlands

[lakebum431]

Jeff's blogs really are good. The best part talking about Coach telling the story some day of how he won immunity:

''And then, it was raining so hard that you literally could not see. Even Jeff said, 'It's raining so hard, I can't see.' But I dug deep and I used my ability to meditate while standing and that allowed me to see through the impenetrable rain. Something only Jedi masters can do.

''Then, I used my telepathic powers to guide the ball through a maze that was so difficult it had never been accomplished by anyone before. Even Jeff said so: 'This challenge is so difficult, no human being has ever accomplished it before!'

''When I finally won, Jeff tried to put the immunity necklace around my neck but due to me bench pressing 350 lb tree trunks earlier in the day my neck was too big for the necklace. That was another first. Even Jeff said as much, 'Wow, I've never seen a neck so big as a result of bench pressing 350 lb tree trunks that I can't get the necklace around. That's impressive.' ''

Love it!

Great blog, for sure. And I like how Jeff nailed the problem with the reward challenge. Pus to be part of a Coach Tall-Tale.

Unless he wins every immunity challenge from now till the end, there is no way they'll keep him around.

Unless they're smart. He's the only person remaining that I would want by my side at the end. Sierra was my first choice but now it has to be coach if you want the mill.

I agree. If they are smart, they would want to keep the Coach as the final 3. Anyone of them in the final with Coach and Sierra would have won by default. But now that Sierra has left, it would be Coach and Taj. Taj is rich and people don't like to give money to rich people. I think Debbie will be next to go, unless they want to blind side JT. Erin is kind of an outsider with no strong alliance, but not a threat either.

I agree with some on other boards... I don't know if I'd want my kid at Debbies School... on Sierra, they treated her like a dog from day one, so she never really had a chance as she started out as an outcast...

The Sierra Ponderosa Clips are good also http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor/video/ponderosa.php

I think JT is a great player, but it was funny this week when he used the word "strategical" twice. I think he may have a strategery.

I have decided that I want either JT or Stephen to win. I like Raj, but she doesn't need the money and it will have no impact on her life.

Also found it interesting that because Raj went to Exile, none of the players interacted with Eddie George, which for Raj was probably good, as they would not be star-struck and thus potentially turn against her.

But Jeff seemed to like talking about "Eddie."

It was a good episode; sure hope the Dragonslayer doesn't win immunity next week.

I don't think that the "Dragonslayer" realized that it was Debbie who voted against him right after the vote was revealed. Do they get to find out who voted for whom right after the torch is put out? They seems to always know once they are back in the camp. Can they tell by handwriting?

I agree, good episode. The look on Coach's face during the vote was priceless. Good thing he is "running the show". Loved how he told his buddy that "they" call him the dragonslayer in this game. It really is his own little reality...

Posting in the blind here... still haven't seen last weeks episode, so will have to have a marathon session Saturday or Sunday to catch up before the finale...

Coach should have listened to Sierra Ha HA big dufus is gone

I think the three of them will gang up on J.T. if he doesn't win immunity. It's their only chance.

S~

 

[lakebum431]

I think your right. They will have to get JT out or he will get all the votes. He is just too likeable.

 

[yaz96]

I hope not, I'm rooting for JT!

Steven has made his move by voting Coach out instead of Erin. JT has to win immunity to stay in the game. If Steven goes up against JT, Steven has most a 50/50 chance but probably worst. But if Steven is up against Taj or Erin, he is almost guarantee the million dollar.

That's why Steven has to vote for Coach. He knew that Coach would want to bring JT into the final. The question is if JT won immunity, would he try to vote out Steven?

I think I will miss Coach. He is such a character. He actually thinks they were "saving" him by voting for Debbie.

Posting in the Blind again, still 2 behind, I need to have a Marathon later today...

 

[lakebum431]

dfergie, you need to catch up! Come on man!

It has been a great final tribal council. Only 5 more minutes until the winner is announced.

This has been a great YEAR for Survivor; two seasons that together made for a lot of enjoyable tv.

I am immensely pleased with the outcome, and watching the reunion show. Coach really is a nut-job.
