    I gotta say, my favorite player is Russell. The only downside to this is that it will be mid-season before we see any significant strategy with the two of them involved. However, Russell will certainly be tested early in the game because people on the show always seem to hate his guts.

    I'll take Rob, Russell's game has been more or less exposed, players would be foolish to trust him.

    I love Russell, but I think you might be right. It appeared that none of them had seen the season with Russell in it when they did All-Stars.

    I'll be rooting for Russell for obvious reasons.

    Rooting for Russell and hoping he learned from the all-stars. He got too cocky thinking he had already won the first show when that was filmed and he needs to just be a tad nicer when it doesn't hurt him.

    I honestly think they'll both be out fairly quick once they are allowed to be voted off, but I guess we'll see. It'd be interesting if they made it to the merge and worked together while "leading" different alliances to get to the end.

    I'll take it the other way, people would be foolish not to work with him, whether they trust him or not. The guy took a team of 4 players to a merge against the other team's 8 players - a 2 to 1 advantage - and turned the tables on them.

    And, I believe that it is utterly wrong to paint Russell as a backstabber, he basically told Rob to his face that he was against him. Rob knew that Russell was against him. Russell also stuck to his alliances in the allstars - with parvati and even though he didn't eventually take Brett to the finale in Somoa, I think that he seriously considered doing it. If he would have done that he'd have been legendary in my opinion.

    I hate that you have to be "nice" to win this game. The objective is to survive, not be a nice person.

    some douche neg repped me for liking the Robfather even though he exited the game before Russell on Heroes vs Villains...

    but anyway, Robfather all the way!!!!!! Russell is a low life, evident by him bringing the letter J.T wrote to the re-union and trashing the lovable Rupert!

    That was the funniest, weirdest Tribal Council I have ever seen. I hope the keep Phillip around just for the entertainment value.

    Rob: "I love playing with amateurs. They don't know how to keep their mouth shut"

    And how about the Robfather being a total boss and giving her an ultimatum... gangsta sht

    It wouldn't have mattered either way, but how would you be the player that phillip WANTS to be aligned with. Doesn't matter what you do because you can't get him away from you. I would have avoided that dude at all costs.

    Even better was that you could see her thinking about actually doing it, until her common sense kicked in.

    What was more moronic was her idea to get rid of Rob immediately... if she had done that, then she would have gone at the next tribal and face the Wrath of Rob 1on1 on the island

    Good start to the season ... Hope it is a great one ... Not really sure who I am rooting for yet, but there are definitely a few I am going to be rooting against (i.e. Phillip)

    Man, crazy ass Phillip. Hopefully he sticks around for entertainment value. Poor Francesca got associated with the wrong two.

    Will be interesting to see how long Russell and rob stick around

    So, Rob won and Jeff said it was the closest to a perfect game he ever saw.

    I don't know about that. I still say that Russell TAUGHT rob how to play the game. Rob played the exact same game that Russell played. Find a young girl that you could control, look for hidden immunity idols without clues, use social niceties to have alliances without actually formally saving you were in one. All from the mind of russell. Russell also went into a merge 8-4 and decimated the larger tribe.

    Rob said it right: he had the right tribe, if he were on Zapatara, with the BIG personalities he'd have suffered the same fate Russell did.
