Brian of Thailand was considered to be quite crafty. Yul wasn't to bad either. IMO, they were both the smartest of their seasons. It has happened, IMO.

He may have lied here and there but he hasn't done it without caring - he's not like some players that will step on your throat and smile while doing it.

As much as I'd like to see JT do whatever it takes to be in the final two, I'd also like to see him and either Stephen at the end in a "gentlemens" win, meaning that he doesn't take the person he feels he can win against (like possibly Coach), but the person he's been in alliance with no matter how likeable or unbeatable they might be (Stephen).

Go JT!!!

ITA, Freshface! ITA!! I <3 JT!!

YAY!!!! I'm sooooo happy for JT!!! For the first time EVER the person that I have been rooting for from the get go, and the person who is the most deserving wins!!! I'm so happy for JT and I think he was the most noble player ever...sure he had to lie a few times and the choice to get rid of Taj when he did was a little brutal, but he had to do it I think.

CONGRATS JT...you played an AWESOME game!

He let Stephen and others do a lot of his dirty work for him. As he said in the final episode, he had to worry about jury votes. That doesn't make him noble at all, just shrewd and manipulating. As the Survivor winner usually needs to be. As you said, he did "play the game".

I wanted JT to win so badly. I was in awe of his gameplay from the first episode. Play nice, act alittle "aw shucks", win the challenges that you Need to win and dont alienate anyone that has voting power. You pulled it off, way to play the game!

I'm sooo glad that JT won. Although he played the game and had to deceive people some of the time, overall I think he was a pretty upstanding guy. I was surprised when it was revealed that everyone loved him. They kind of kept that hidden during the show. We didn't see much negative talk about him, but no glowing discussions either.

I don't think anyone since Colby has taken the chance that JT did, bringing another deserving person to the F2 with him. IMO Stephen wasn't that deserving, but it seemed that most of the others thought he was, just not as much as JT.

So happy JT won. This is the first time my favorite has won. He definitely deserved to win the money.

JT must be a pretty impressive guy in person to have received all the votes!! Usually theres at least one pity vote thrown to the other F2 person. Congrates to JT!!! Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
