Why did Alan and Ashley put their votes on Joe?

How does he feel now about his strip search of JP?

And what was his long-term strategy?

I’m Not Crazy, I’m Confident

And honestly, I wasnt giving Joe enough credit to really manipulate the game in terms of that blowup.

I didnt give his IQ that much credit in terms of being able to do that.

It was almost immediate.

And for me, I went on the show to really have a good time.

Like, when he opened his mouth, I was just really annoyed.

I cant see it any other way.

The way that Tribal went down, there was no way around some of the things that went down.

We wanted him out and thats what we had to do.

On appearing to not give up the throwing rope in the challenge:That was some editing magic.

We actually switched that rope three or four times.

And Joe was throwing it so badly and Ashley couldnt get it five feet.

So I ended throwing myself out.

If you watched it from the beginning, Joe couldnt throw that rope three feet.

On his personal feelings on Ashley and JP:That was all game.

I dont have any problem with Ashley.

I dont have any problem with JP.

Hopefully they dont have a problem with me.

Ashley, did she get on my nerves at times out there?

But I left the game at the game.

I dont have any harsh feelings towards anyone.

I havent communicated with them but I dont have any hard feelings towards anyone.

It would have been us four.

So I think thats something that we could have done.
