And Amanda, and Natalie, and Alexis.
(1) Youre the ones voting them out.
Honestly, I dont blame the fellas.

I would do the same thing after watching that collection of black widows the season before.
It just flows better.
Think of it as aSurvivor TV Watch: Directors Cut.)
Speaking of dudes (or…er, sausages), I want to address two of them.
Lets start with Matty and allow me to say this: I was wrong.
But after watching him perform in those two challenges last night, I am officially on Team Matty.
NEXT: I swear!
On the flipside is Randy.
But he wasnt done.
Then, when Crystal are we really sure this woman won an Olympic gold medal, by the way?
starring crying after losing, Randy publicly mocked her by making fake sobbing noises.
(1) Randy wasclearlyplaying to the cameras on this one.
And (2) this, my friends, is simply bad gameplay.
Why make enemies with the other tribe for no reason whatsoever?
Randy had done such a good job of keeping his cantankerous side under wraps until then.
What else did we learn during this episode?
Ace and Matty then made an alliance, including Sugar and Kenny in their fearsome foursome.
Matty swore on his girlfriends life and then promised to not go back on it for a million dollars.
No, make that 5 million!
Why do people continue to value this as some sort of iron-clad show of loyalty?
On my so-and-sos life, we always hear contestants proclaim.Stop it!What does that even mean?
Are you going to go kill them if you go back on your word?
Is that what it means?
If so, by all means, swear on their life.
How else to explain herofferingto give Ace the (not-so-well) hidden immunity idol?
Homeboy didnt even have to ask for it!
Her logic in giving it to him?
If I dont play it, youll have it later.
Wait, whats that?
Oh, whats that?
Youd like to elaborate to Ace why youre giving it to him?
Hmmm, I see.
Why arent you going to play it?
You should play it!
Its there to be played!
Thats why it exists, dammit!
Three seasons straight now!
What is wrong with these people!
(Yes, on yourself, Eric.
Stop talking to Natalie!)
Cant you tell how angry Im getting?
Thats why I keep using all these exclamation points and capital letters!
Its what I do when Im angry!For his part, Ace could not believe his good fortune.
Its been a crazy couple of days.
Okay, people, lets break it down here for a moment.
But for now, it just hasnt been happening.
That said, we got a lot of bang for our buck with this weeks challenges.
Poor Kelly got another earful from both Probst (Kelly, barely moving!)
and her tribemates (Go, Kelly, get out of here!).
Have we actuallyseenthe medal?).
and Matty was left to stew over the rest of his tribes lameness.
Actually, after the challenge it appearedeveryonewas stewing.
(Again, Exile should be all about misery and suffering, not hammocks and fruit baskets.)
NEXT: Turtle anyone?
Two weeks in a row!
This Redskins fan is feeling bold!).
Kelly and Sugar are losing a tremendous amount of time for Fang.
Kelly is dragging).
Its truly been a season-long delight.
Wouldyoutrust that group of losers?
Seriously, who are you gonna count on to get it done Crystal?
So Fang went home again without a victory.
A plan was brewing to get rid of the useless Kelly.
Although Crystal perhaps feeling some sort of kinship toward fellow useless tribe members was targeting Ace.
The hidden immunity idol is now cursed.
Tribal council turned out to be a fairly feisty affair.
Kelly offered her expert psychological diagnosis of Crystal, dubbing the Olympian clearly not stable.
Crystal, proving exactly how stable she is, started yelling.
Another women voted off.
There could be one more woman voted off next week.
Or there could be two!
Previews show Jeff Probst telling both tribes that theyll have to vote off a member.
It makes the whole challenge pointless.
Now maybe thats not the way it will go down next week but Im nervous.
Before I turn it over to you, just a reminder to peruseJeff Probsts latest blog entry.
It truly is required reading if you crave behind-the-scenes insight and honest opinions and who doesnt?
