Nice eyes on this one. He may be my pre-show fave.

Claims he's just as lovable as Rupert. There are many who wouldn't brag about that. Still, I'm interested. Commercial fisherman is not an easy trade and he probably has a fantastic work ethic and ability to improvise.

Might bump heads with those who are also used to leading, like the coach.

This guy could do well. Not sure about the Rupert comment, but I bet he is a hard worker, good at challenges, and gets along with the tribe. Likely not an early target.

Jimmy T and Tyrone work for me right now.
I don't think either have much chance of winning however.

His tribe will keep around for a while, but he'll never win. He's too likeable and the other players will vote him off before the final tribal council.

Here's hoping he keeps his tribe well fed. He should be ok with cold rain, but I wonder if he can deal with dehydration.

Low tolerance for incompetence... and probably also laziness... Hope he can keep his mouth shut as I liked him.

....ha...........looks like a dude I partied with at Woodstock :mmm
