Rob and Butch. Butch wins. Matt goes craze-ape bonkers with his machete, murders everone, and takes the million arguing that he’s the only _real_ survivor. He cuts off HeiDDi’s fake tits and serves than as blancmanges at his restaurant.

“serves _them_ as blancmanges…” :rolleyes:

Actually, I’m still betting on Matt and Jenna with Matt winning.

I would have like to have seen a Matt - Christie final, that way I would’ve been happy with whoever won. However, I’ll be pulling for Matteo to win the big one Sunday.

lets go Rob! schemer extraordinaire…

lets go Butch! ghost…

lets go Matteo! kill them all, kill them all.

DIE! Jenna, you whore…  
I think I’m more excited for the Reunion Show than the finale. the finale is gonna be shitty with all the walking down memory lane stuff. I want to see Rob get some beats for what he said on camera, as well, I want to see the whores get what they deserve too. I want to see, how Christy acts in front of them and an explanation on that cinderella thing. I want to see Roger the bigot get a come-uppins. I want to see… the list goes on.

Can I just say that I’m really pissed they are airing this thing on Mother’s Day.

I’ll be out that night and have to tape it.

Yeah, 2 hours. I hope they don’t show one hour & 45 minutes of rehash & fifteen of actual new show.

“I would have like to have seen a Matt - Christie final”

He would win, she hasn’t won anything at all, but I think she could have if they gave her an interpreter. She did go to Gallaudet, so she must be more deaf then she looks.

"“We had the discussion with her in advance,” Sullivan said. "We said, ‘Do you think it’s fair that you participate without an interpreter?’ And she said, ‘No, but life isn’t fair and I want to do it.’ "

Just to be different, I’m going to predict a Rob-Matt duo. Matt may very well win the rest of the ICs, and take Rob with him, both because they’re friends, and because Matt will think he can beat him.

Whether really can or not will, I think, depend a lot on the jury questions. I’m betting Matt gets Dave’s and Butch’s votes, and Rob gets Deena’s and Alex’s. I don’t know how Deena, Heidi and Jenna will vote, but if Rob can pitch a good line of bullshit in answer to their questions, he might win it.

I’m hoping for a Matt and Rob final two. I’d like to think Matt will take Rob for the reasons **Ferrous** mentioned, but I’m worried he might go with Rob’s earlier thought of taking Jenna, if Matt wins the final immunity.

I can’t pick a favorite out of Matt and Rob, since I feel Matt physically worked his butt off and still managed to have enough energy to be a fierce competitor. I feel Rob outwitted just about all of the other contestants and managed to land on his feet. I like Butch just fine, but with the comparatively small amount of air time he received, I’m not sure he worked as hard.

My thoughts on Jenna would be a subject for The Pit. I fear she’ll be one of the final two, and though it’d be nice to watch her squirm during the Q&A, I’d be disappointed to see her leave with a dime.

Go Rob!!! Sure he’s lied to almost everyone, but thats how you play the game. I’ve been rooting for him since the second or third episode. I think he is very funny (comments about Heidi and Jenna in particular) and has played a fantastic game.

Christie said in her “goodbye” that she would not vote for either of the girls left. If Rob can get himself and Jenna to the last vote - game over.

Am I the only one who actually likes the memory lane walks? It’s nice to think back on all the contestants, people like Ryan and Daniel. I think the walk will be especially meaningful to Butch and Matt. By the way, I’m pulling for Rob to win.
