Well, the year has certainly gone fast! Big Brother 11 starts in just over an hour! Woohoo! So anyway, I want to post my pre-season handicapping odds and predictions, let's see if I'm right in September!:
Braden - Supposedly this guy is a suckster... he's a total douchebag and tool, but perhaps he'll bring the drama. He's an "actor" and you can tell he's putting up a front in his interview videos, so this guy is either going to implode fast with not being able to keep his douchiness under wraps or he could go far if he manages to act like a normal human being. 55-1
Casey - Insiders have said he's like Mike Boogie... that's enough for me to think he'll be annoying and will likely go pre-jury. However, he could be endearing, hard to say. 20-1
Chima - She's supposed to be a brain, and seems kinda normal. She could go far if other people emerge as threats. If she goes UTR, she has a good chance. 12-1
Jeff - A pre-season favorite of lonely housewives, a salesman looking for a showmance... ugh. I'm not sure about him. If he has a showmance, he'll be a target sooner rather than later. 8-1
Jordan - I don't know... could she be a bitchy blonde or a sweet small town girl? Hmmm... 16-1
Kevin - A stereotypical, flamboyant gay guy. They typically make the jury but get booted out 5th - 9th. 20-1
Laura - A bikini model... ugh. Self described as sassy, so perhaps she could be bitchy. 18-1
Lydia - A bisexual, nanny, Harry Potter fanatic... um, very interesting. I think she could be well liked and a fan favorite. 8-1
Michele - A neuroscientist, so a serious brainiac, I wonder how they got her on the show? Anyway, I think if she keeps her profession under wraps and pretends to be something else, she'll go far. However, if she flaunts her smarts, she'll be a target in the first few weeks. 12-1
Natalie - A feisty latina! Could they go with more stereotypical characters? Ugh. Anyway, she says she has no problem with lying and backstabbing. If she can get a solid alliance after the clique thing runs its course, then she could go far. 9-1
Ronnie - The nerdy guy, married... could be a solid alliance member with his smarts and a knowledge of past BB's that could be valuable. 6-1
Russell - Loud and brash? That type of person doesn't generally go far unless they get lucky. However, insiders say he's trying to be viewed as the nice guy in the house. Hard to say if this will work. 10-1
Mystery HG (aka Jessie) - UGH... could they have picked worse past HG's to compete? Jessie? Seriously? The good news is that he's going to go out the door pretty quickly once he loses HOH or veto in the same week. He had his chance. 100-1
This was really hard without seeing how they react with each other! So this post is basically a shot in the dark.
I bet my predictions will massively change after seeing the first episode and watching a few days of feeds and updates and seeing where the alliances are.
Like Jeff Chima and Russell.
I think Russell will be the likeable Jessie of the house.
Tough like a real bear, comforting like a teddy bear.
Hear he's been in a motorcycle accident WHILE trying to show off to girls so, I don't think he'll be the showoffy type. Contrary to what many others believe.
