Well, my horse (Debbie) is now out of the race, and I can't say I'm sorry. IMO she got into the game too late, and was just too phony and insincere to make it work. Her turning on Coach worked against her, and she made Stephen nervous. If you make Stephen nervous, you are gone, because Stephen is totally in control of this game, right now. He's letting JT think they both are in control, but it's totally Stephen calling the shots.

And, I hope Stephen is smart enough not to take JT to the final two with him, because JT is too well liked and Stephen is too smart to fall into that trap. I have half a mind to think Stephen may be thinking of taking Coach or Taj to the final. With Coach in the final two, though Mr. Ego will be all over it, Stephen is sure to win. With Taj in the final two, I think Stephen still wins, because he's been the mastermind all along, and carried Taj to the end.

All in all, I think I did pretty well at DU's Pick a Survivor game for my first time out. :) I wasn't too bothered by Debbie until this episode, but that's obviously because she's been flying under the radar quite a bit.

My prediction is that Erinn goes next, followed by either JT or Coach. Neither JT nor Coach will see it coming, IMO.
