I would expect to see some commentary on the Stephen/JT alliance (hinderance) by Taj and maybe Coach (words from the prophet on his way out)

Coach goes next then Erinn, Taj after that, with a final of Stephen and JT. It seems so easy to predict. Unless SeeBS has one more of Jeff's blindsides hidden up their sleeve I don't see any other way for it to end.

Erinn's arc is finished - she survived Timbira, she survived exile, she's a better person for it. Taj's arc is basically one long trailer for I Married a Baller, so we wrapped that up last night, too. Stephen and JT to the end.

Erinn's edit has been tricky... one could say that she always manage to progress through the game, even when she shouldnt. I dont think Erinn is a shoe-in for the F4 boot. I think she may win immunity. I sense her storyline is going to pick up and progress into the Finale....

Well, if you watch the post Episode 11 preview, you see him making a cane and saying something about it. Food for thought.

Posts: 5669 (05/08/09 7:56 PM) MESS member More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	The fact that both Stephen and Erinn were included in the first impressions tells me that they are the final 2. Once Coach is gone (next) I think there will be lots of shuffling in the final 4. I am thinking that Stephen's fire building comes to play and he wins a challenge, somehow sending Taj home. Perhaps Taj and Erinn plan a blindside together against Stephen and JT (with JT winning the F4 immunity). Then I think Stephen or Erinn boot JT in the final 3.

Croach will somehow be invited back for an ASS or second chance deal :shakeshead. In his latest blog Jeff even brought up having Eddie George as a contestant.

Food for thought. He said something to the effect that " blah blah dragon slayer, and now I have the dragon cane," as he selected a twisted stick. I think he is on exile, and contemplating a little reality (that he is the next boot). He is thinking ahead enough to plan his "martyrdom" and also obtain a prop for maximum attention, maybe.

But Jeff loves his blindsides even more than he loves alpha males. He liked Micronesia despite Parv winning more than Gabon with fan fave Yau-Man 2.0 winning. He's been talking about blindsides all season, and editing has playing up the theme of trust and mistrust. All that makes no sense without an epic blindside betrayal to cap off the season. Just like the good vs evil theme and Fang sucks editing would make no sense last season, without Sugar changing the game at F6.

Posts: 10639 (05/09/09 11:31 AM) MESS Moderator More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	There's chances for 2 "blindsides" in the Finale. They've painted virtually all of them as spectacular. Jeff could have it both ways an alpha male winner and blindsides. YeeHaw...TDT has even been tallying up the potential Stephen vs JT final votes.

Posts: 312 (05/09/09 11:43 AM) More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	Based on Jeff's over-the-top enthusiasm for this season and the winner (notice that he never praised the winner in Micronesia, just the season itself) I'm guessing he does have it both ways.

Posts: 15619 (05/09/09 12:18 PM) Registered User More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	TDT has even been tallying up the potential Stephen vs JT final votes. I figure TDT placed JT\Stephen in the Top 2 as a logical deduction based on separate Sucks spoilers that Coach was 5th, Debbie was 4th (37 days), and Taj was 3rd. But Debbie only lasted 33 days, with means Erinn\JT could be 4th or make the finals as far as source spoilers know. If I was going to show a preview with 2 players in the F4 challenge (Taj and JT), I'd feature the 2 who DID NOT make F2.

Posts: 10640 (05/09/09 1:38 PM) MESS Moderator More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	I'm shocked they gave us half the F4 way back in March, featuring anything after that is believable. Despite the hype there hasn't been a true blindside since Tyson. The only real blindsides I see left would be if Coach outlasted Erinn for F5, and either Coach or Erinn outlasted Taj for F3. I think Deb F'ed this up enough to convincingly give us JT and Stephen, but only time will tell. My guess, JT will get something like 6 votes. Jeff's always wanted that alpha male decisive won since Colby, now he's got it.

Posts: 1546 (05/09/09 9:51 PM) Registered User More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	I think that's right. Giving us HALF of the F4 so early....SOOOO EARLY...reveals that it's not either of them. Neither Taj nor JT and we saw that yes, Taj could make fire. Erinn can't and we sure know that Stephen can. Maybe it's just simply that. A fire-making challenge. And JP has always been VERY guarded about his remarks regarding Erinn and Stephen in his Blog of Blogs. There was also Roach's rather magnificent and loftily-phrased speech about Stephen at the last TC which just jumped out at me and no one seems to have mentioned it. He said something to the effect that the great survivor story was "The city boy who could do nothing became a man who can master surviving in the wild." Or something like that. He actually said it in a very stirring manner. I'm sure Madame Pez-i-dent has the exact quote. And I thought "Aha! THAT's the story! That's our winners quote!"
