Diary Room: Adam Poch’s Player Rankings: Big Brother 18 – Week 9

August 24, 2016 Adam Poch Big Brother, Big Brother 18 91

The rest of the Big Brother 18 Houseguests earned negative marks this week for their game.

Michelle Meyer – 1 strip of Tofu – yes, Michelle was co-HoH this week, but what did she do with that? The exact opposite of what the people that voted for her wanted. She basically handed over all the power to Natalie – and instead of standing her ground and going after Nicole, she played along to break up the Victor/Paul duo. I understand why she did it, with 7 people left – she is the odd one out. Everyone else has a ride or die but her, so she did not want to make waves. Depending on who comes back this week will determine her fate in the game.

James Huling – 2 strips of Tofu – for someone who claimed, “It’s now time for me to start playing Big Brother” – he has gone back to playing puppy dog to Natalie. It’s quite sad that he has no opinion / ideas on his own. Actually – even when he made that statement, he started playing other people’s games. He better hope he gets the girl after this – cause he is not winning 500K – UNLESS something drastic happens.

Corey Brooks – 4 strips of Tofu – Corey is in the house. Corey tells stories that make him look bad. Corey is on the block again next to a bigger target. That’s all I got for him.

That brings us to the Tofurkey of the week – and that award is given to Nicole Franzel. As I mentioned in the opening, she is spending her summer in bed, talking about how cute Corey is. She may have been helped this week by people other than her fellow houseguests. I do not see any scenario where she wins the 500K. Even if Jozea somehow showed up on finale night in the F2 chairs – he would get more votes than her.

Nicole’s best move this week was trying to use prize money as a bribe to get her & Corey with Natalie & James to the Final 4. OH along with the Tofurkey, I also give Nicole a towel to clean herself off. If you do not get what I mean, go back and look for the video online. Sorry not sorry!

OK, there ya go, another week in the books let me know in the comments section below what you think of this week’s rankings.

This week could all just be a “reset” if the evicted HG this week comes back. That brings me to the question of the week – who are you rooting for to win their way back in? Personally, I would like to see Victor leave & come right back, but Paulie coming back would probably provide the most drama, and after this past week, drama is what we need!!!!

From outside the Big Brother house, I am Adam Poch, have a great day!

  2. Dingus thinks it is gross to use communal soap because it has been in other people’s cracks. Although I tend to agree with her about communal soap, there is probably Doofus tallywhacker juice under her nails and in her crack as I post. So please send her a bar of body disinfecting soap and a nail brush along with that towel.

    • I actually would not want to use the same soap as the other HGs, especially after seeing how nasty they really are. Nicole is lazy, but she likes to bathe.

      • wellll maybe what shes looking for is so small that she has a tough time finding it… hence all the “under the cover ” action.. only she & Corey know the truth

      • There are videos on YouTube. You can decide for yourself what the movements under the sheets look like. They are single adults so no big deal.

        Personally, I wouldnt do it with LiveFeeds bc then it is out there forever. Not a good look. (Paulie and Z were a lot more obvious)

      • And thank goodness for that. I can’t imagine what she would smell like if she didn’t. The smell of old musty sex is very detectable and nauseating.

      • lol. I don’t believe for a second that Nic and Corey are having s.x I know she does things to him and he lays there and takes it.
        Unless the feeds show them doing it.

      • Jokers posted this AM or last night that they were having sex. I don’t know, but the pickle juice is still flowing.

      • I was watching the feeds at that time and If they were i sure couldn’t see it. I think anytime they lay down people are thinking the worst.

      • I’ve actually seen posts removed from Jokers before that were things misstated by posters. This hasn’t been removed.

      • It wasn’t lying down part, it was the movement under sheets previously. I don’t know about last night. She told him she would move for him. He was non-committal

      • Posted on Jokers Wed 12:11 AM BBT..
        12:05-12:11 Corey and Nicole having sex…Nicole on top. She asks if she is too heavy and if he can breathe.

    • When I saw this on the feeds, I thought about the Friends episode with Joey and Chandler.
      JOEY: Hey, why can’t we use the same toothbrush, but we can use the same soap?
      CHANDLER: Because soap is soap. It’s self-cleaning!

      JOEY: Alright, well next time you take a shower, think about the last thing I wash and the first thing you wash.
      LOL

    • Please! you really have to put up a warning for this type of posting. Just spit out my lunch laughing so hard.

  3. Spot on, Adam! I agree with absolutely everything you said in your article about HG’s and also would like to see Victor come right back in. Paulie would be more drama, but I don’t think I can take it if he comes back.

      • As a Paul/Victor fan, I would love to see Paulie come back just to screw over James. Oh, you wanted a final four with two showmances James? Guess what, because you flipped and didn’t go after Corey and Nicole, you’re now at a 3-2 disadvantage!

  4. I agree about Natalie, but the other HG who is wide awake is Paul, so those two could make it to the final. I think Nicole is playing a good social game that requires a lot of begging and whining, but it has been working for her. Each week she makes sure to butter kiss whomever is the HOH and finds ways to convince them that she and Corey are not after them while secretly telling others differently. She convinced Natalie and if Paul wins may try to do the same so he could nominate the other showmance in the house who she is not supposedly going after.

    • I think Paul would have teamed up with Nicole and Corey, if the returning juror wasn’t taking place. He’s already started by telling Corey how some people told him Nicole was coming after him. I’m getting confused on who is targeting who, these days.

      • I’m afraid that he is teaming up with them and that is not a good idea. When Victor returns he will side with him to take the rest out. I just want Nicole and James out and everyone else can work with whomever.

    • I personally think that James manipulated Natalie when he talked to her about america wants to see big moves. “who do you think is running this house” and he kept on until she finally came up with Victor and Paul then made her think it was her own idea.

      • I do agree with that, but Natalie has been the one telling James who is running the house and he convinced her to put them up. People say that she is using him, but I think he may be using her. He always liked blonds and is constantly defending Nicole who he has a crush on.

  5. First of all, I agree with your rankings Adam, but I have an off topic question since you’re an insider. Did James break any BB rules? (bribing HG) and if he did, how do they enforce it?

    • They should have received a penalty nom. Drerrick and Cody did same thing tho. Derrick bought Cody a truck after he won. Nothing they can do about it then

      • So if we have any “pre-season” plan to align (like the alleged alliance of P/J/N) – we need to have a code word.
        For example, I could say,
        “Adam, let’s agree to take each other to the end and after the show, I will give you some fresh corn on the cob!”

      • yeah..I could say “I’ll kick your a*s after the show”..so it’s really no big deal. I’m sure a lot them does it.

    • Have some problems with Natalie’s ranking. Not sure if she deserves 5 strips of bacon. Seemed to me that James convinced Natalie not to waver on the Paul/Victor noms when she was having second thoughts before the POV and solidified by suggesting the alliance with Dingus/Corey. Think she might have wanted to change the noms and therefore Michelle would have without James in her ear. Would have given her 3 not 5

  6. BAHAHAHAHA, the towel comment made my day along with the Jozea part. That girl really is as dumb as they come. Please CBS do not bring her back as an “allstar”.

  8. Spot on Adam! I hope Victor or Paulie makes it back into the house. It will be the time for Paul to make an alliance with whomever and Michelle. I want Nicole out first then James. James has let his supporters down with his dishonest actions.

  9. I love that you mentioned that Vic is the only one cleaning haha…that house is going to be so nasty without him.

    Also LOL at “Corey is in the house.”
    That’s literally all there is to say about him. He is existing.

    • It already nasty after last night at least the bathroom is. As of last night Victor is refusing to clean it again. Like Victor said last night these people are just ungrateful POS.

      • In the past when he said something to James & Nic after making a mess after he just cleaned they got mad at HIM. He asked a couple people to help clean on Sunday and they all layed in sun or watched! Ungrateful POS is right.

        Watching the video, the scene was laugh out loud funny! Cleanup was not…

        I like how Vic talked to Michelle about slowing down when she eats so that her stomach has time to know she is full. (About 32 min into BBAD). He is just a nice guy

  10. Adam – great article. Couldnt agree more. If the do evict Vic (it should be Corey). then I hope he is the one to come back in!!

    • There’s still a little time left for the house to flip and send Corey home, although it’s doubtful.
      .
      If we end up with a finale of Corey/Michelle that will be a complete travesty.

  11. Adam your article was better than the show/feeds this week. thanks for the lols

  12. I agree, I agree, I agree. I do not like though! I’m so tired of Nat talking like a little girl to Jamesy, lol

  13. Give Corey some credit. Sure, he never does anything, but he managed to make 2 people fall in love with him, and one of them was a dude.

  14. Uh, Adam, your wrong about Nat being on top of things. Bridgette hipped Natalie to Paulie. Bridgette started the whole “let’s get Paulie before he gets us” move. Not Natalie. Also, it was Nichole who went running to James and Nat about Paulies plan for Nichole, Corey and and Paul. Natalie didn’t figure that out on own either. Don’t go giving credit where credit ain’t due. And with this bunch of boring, sleeping, clueless houseguests very little credit is due.

    • Natalie knew it was going on – just too afraid to say anything cause she thought it would backfire on her. As soon as Bridge confirmed it to her – they teamed up to get Paulie out.

      • Not a bold move though. Fear has prevented people from stepping out to initiate anything until the house is on board, which kinda makes sense.

  16. I think Natalie is getting way more credit than she deserves. She’s always had an idea of what was going on but it’s always a very vague idea. All of her theories are about 75% facts and 25% is stuff she pulled out of her ass.
    Michelle has been the worst player this week. All of Natalie and James’ schemes result in a no win situation for her but she still goes along with every plan they propose.

    • True, but to be fair she isn’t anyone’s target and she has more awareness compared to everyone else in this game.

      • She isn’t anyone’s target because she is weak and pathetic. That’s not a huge feat to accomplish. The nature of the game always incentivizes being mediocre, just look at who’s remaining.

  17. Thanks for the ranking, Adam. Don’t necessarily agree with them, but I still think it’s cool you share your opinions with us!

    I do agree, though, that Paulie coming back would bring the most drama to the house, and that’s always a win for us watching the feeds. This week started off strong with the flip, but now things are too quiet. I haven’t been here for a couple days because there just hasn’t been anything interesting going on, so nothing for me to really comment on.

      • Not everyone wanted Paulie gone. We may have all disliked his personality, but there were some of us who respected him as one of the few actual players in the house this season.

  18. What stuff does Corey say? It’s hard for me to believe what people are willing to do in bed on this show with the cameras on. With family and friends out there and everyone knowing your business. Eeek

  19. Hey Adam allow me to give you some bacon for your spot on analysis. I know you’re not playing, but what the heck.

  20. It’s sad that newbies are playing a better game than the vets. I see either of the three bacon nominees winning this game. Maybe they deserve it, maybe they don’t. But defintley more than the tofu razzies.
