Why don't these people get rid of Russell when they have the chance to? Obviously he's not going to play the idol if he's wearing it around his neck. He's just doing it to scare people. Now, I think Russell is a great player. Probably the best Survivor has ever had, so I'm not saying anything against him. All I'm saying is that none of the remaining Survivors are going to win against him if they take him to the end. Don't they see that? I don't think any of them are very good at thinking ahead. They need to be playing to get to the final at this point and they're not. I've never liked him, but at this point I'm hoping he wins because he's the only person that's actually playing this game.
I thought Monica trying to stir something up at camp was hilarious. She was never one of my favorites, but that was so good. She's totally right too. She knew she was going, so why not give all of the other people something to think about and fight over on her way out? It's a good strategy. Make everyone turn against each other, so they start fighting to win for themselves instead of bringing Russell through every Tribal Council. I suppose, now that Monica and other knows about Russell's real occupation and income, Russell could be in trouble. I have no doubt in my mind that Monica will try to get people to vote against him since he doesn't technically need the money and someone sitting up there against him might need it more. I still think everyone will think he played the best game and give him the money, though.
