It seems like he is capable of genuine relationships, and I don't see that in the others.

He can be as absolutely annoying as the next reality television participant. But I just get the feeling that he is less smoke & mirrors than the other, pretty people. He seems more substantial, even if somewhat immature.

I go right along. I know the eye candy is important, but I think CBS overdoes that. Still, if a HG isn't pretty, there has to be something else about them that will add to the game. Now, seriously, is Cowboy really the best they can do in that regard ?

I have nothing against the ole cowpoke, but he's got ZERO game, and he's challenged in so many ways that I seriously doubt that he made this year's show for any reason other than to allow BB to pull this DNA thing. Sorry, but I really don't want to see anyone get the grand prize purely on a sympathy vote.

People say Michael is slow, dimwit, etc... well, sooooooo? Let's say for arguments sake he IS slow. What difference does that make? Does that make him a lesser person than say someone who is a genuis? I don't think so! I'd hope if you met a slow person (and I'm not saying he is slow) in real life you would have compassion for this person. I certainly do.

To be honest, I'd rather see Michael as a host of BB than Julie Chen. I get tired of all these "poured out of the same mold" people reading off a teleprompter. Since BB is about real people at their best and worst, why not a host that is also "real"? It would certainly liven up the show! Reality tv at its best!

Stop your snivelling. I was listening and agreeing with every thought. I think Michael has made this season very interesting. He deserves to win just as much as anyone, more than some.
I never understand why people think an individual is not playing the game. Michael is playing HIS game as is everyone else. He happens to be a follower. The only LEADER left is Diane and hopefully her stay will come to an end sooner than later.

As dumb as Cowboy is, he at least is a good person. He has kept his word throughout the game. He was even honest enough to explain his commitments to Jennifer, so she wouldn't feel backstabbed.

You know that Diane is going to burn him on his promise if she wins HOH, but that will be another vote she loses. If Drew wins HOH, he will pick Diane because everybody hates her.

Cowboy made a one way promise with Diane. (Which, surprisingly, wasn't so dumb) He expects Diane to pick him because he saved her. Diane didn't have to make that promise, because, in my book, she saved him last week, and they would have been even.

Cowboy needs to win, because Diane is full of sh*** when she says that if she picked Drew, it would be like handing him a half million dollars.

I'm not sure if Drew will take Cowboy to the final two,either. I can't figure out who Cowboy will be more mad with...Diane or Drew once he realizes he's been played.

I'm sorry folks, but if Cowboy gets evicted tomorrow night, he has brought it on himself. He had the chance to keep himself in the game by keeping Nakomis. But now, he has set himself up to fail. In order for him to reach the final 2 now he would have to win HoH. If Diane or Dew wins it -- it is over for Cowboy. I really wanted to like Cowboy, but he is not a good game-player at all.

I still can't get over the fact that Michael is only 23. I'll be 23 next month and I look like a 12 year old compared to him. I'm a girl, but still. I thought he was 30 or so this whole time. He's a really old looking 23.

He surely does look older doesn't he? I get the impression that he had to grow up before his time. This may well be the first time he's ever had a chance to just have fun.
Whatever happens now I think he will be pretty happy. You know he probably never really thought he'd get this far. I'd love to see him win some money.

IF he realizes he's been played...heh heh heh

Well lizzybird, I don't like what you're implying, but if you'd like to make it up to me I'll take that dog. :rolleyes

Nak would have taken Diane with her in a heartbeat. She knows how hated Diane is. What on earth makes anyone think Nak would have taken her brother? She's been actively trying to get rid of him for weeks now! Michael was sort of the odd man out no matter what, but I'm really glad Nak has no chance of winning the money. Her fake "I don't hold grudges" is just as bad as Will's open and obvious childishness.

Cowboy played it right. If he doesn't win HOH, he probably won't be final 2. HOWEVER, if Diane was playing with her mind and not her heart, it would make sense for her to take Cowboy instead of Drew. She can tell the jury, you can hate me, but at least I played the game. Michael just coasted. She can't really say that about Drew, seeing as how he won 3 HOHs, put the nail in Jase's coffin, etc.
