That's her. I picked her to be the winner after the second or third episode. I am hoping she does.

OMG! Poor Matt. But you know what.....he got what he deserved. Watch he wins in the end.

I can't believe poor Matt got sent back already also!!! I felt so bad for him...but my husband and I could not believe it when he pulled Rob aside and told him he was thinking of voting him out and then changed his mind. I wonder if Rob would have gone after him if he hadn't had done that.

Hahah....yes, he did get what he deserved. That was an awesome move on Rob's part, but that pretty much sealed the deal .. he will not ever win. No one really appreciates good strategy.

I agree - can't believe what happened to Matt!!! My husband and I were shocked. Do you think if Matt had not told Rob he was thinking of flipping and voting him out that Rob would not have gone after him again?

That was a good play on Robs part...he flushed out the idol that Ralph had...but I'm not so sure about voting Matt off to redemption island again...I think he should have voted out someone from the other tribe...weakening that alliance...I think that will come back and bite Rob in the a$$.

I was shocked when Jeff said who ever was voted off will go to redemption island...I figured that once they merged that would be the end of redemption island....this is going to be very interesting.

And I thought no one knew that Ralph had the idol..I must of missed him telling his tribe members he had it.

I know! Matt looked like he was about to cry. But if you ask me anyone that keeps winning challenges on R.I. deserves to win the whole game!
It was a foolish move on his part to tell Rob, but I think Rob would have been gunning for him anyway.

Rob didn't have a chance in h*ll at that million dollars. Eventually someone's stategy to get him off would work.

Remember Matt telling Rob that the other team would give him the idol if he was in danger? So Rob knew that they had found an idol and assumed that it could be given to anyone that might be a target. I don't think he knew which member had it he just knew that he could flush it out.

Rob is SUCH a good player. He may be the best ever. He sure does know how to read people. He got voted off last time because of Coach's stupidity.

Didn't Russell get Ralph to admit he had it when Russell got axed?

Did he?
I don't remember that. LJ you have a steel trap for a memory!

Rob was GREAT last nite!! I just hope they all don't end up turning on him! He needs to win the immunity necklace next week (although he still has an idol). I did feel a little bad for Matt (he actually reminds me of Fabio). Rob needs to get the older people out one by one because the youngers ones are easier to minuplate than the older ones. It's so good!!!

Matt is just too nice and honest for his own good!
I thought how stupid can you be to tell Rob that, geez!
Not only that, but he did throw Andrea under the bus as well!

You can never be too nice or honest for your own good. Matt has shown himself to be a remarkable man with great character, who is extremely truthful; I would think a lot of people would love to hire him. I'm kind of anxious to see what God has planned for him!

I really think Rob's doing a great job; don't know if I would have voted off Matt this early, I guess we'll see how that plays out. It sounds like the person who is left on Redemption Island will be one of the final three, and Matt is so great a challenges, he has a very good chance to win their votes in the end. I guess you have to outwit someone, and still keep their respect, and Rob is good at that. I do not want to see Rob and Matt duel on Redemption Island, I love them both.

I couldn't believe Rob sent Matt back to Redemption Island! I think everyone was touched with Matt's perseverance on the island and honesty in explaining to Rob why he wanted to stick with his original tribe.

But Rob is 100 percent gamesman and doesn't let his heart get in the way of the strategy -- and the fun -- of the game. It cracked me up when he rehid the clue for the Idol he already had, just for laughs. And as tough as Matt proved on Redemption Island, it's a credit to Rob for knowing how serious of a threat he is. He's probably just playing with his head by sending him back and knows he'll most likely make it back again.

I want to be like Rob when I grow up.

Well we all realized last year that you don't have to be smart to win the game....poor little dummy Fabio was laughing all the way to the bank!
