He was a great player and he knows it. Nothing wrong with that in my book.
I really liked the interview...gives a bit of insight into the behind the scenes stuff. I imagine that it would be fascinating to see all of what goes on. We only get to see what the producers choose. He is right...maybe he DID try to change his game. When they first announced the new season, I read the bios of all of the people and most of them went in hating Russell. So....the fact that his team did what they did comes as no surprise....but it is not really survivor. My prediction is that they will go down because of it....Of course, I could be dead wrong, but they deserve it. They are as low as they say he is.
That really IS Survivor....being a b**** imo. Outlast and outwit. Oh, maybe those who ride coattails win the money, but they don't win the game imo. I don't watch to see who wins so much as I enjoy the strategizing.
