BB8: The Final 4

After last night's double eviction, we're down to the Final 4 on Big Brother 8... and truthfully, I am not liking my options!   What could have been a blockbuster night ended up being a whimper as lovebirds Jessica and Eric were booted from the house.

Despite the annoying voice, over time I had grown fond of Jessica... and while Eric did start to get on my nerves (the raised eyebrow, not shutting up) he was handed a tough draw having to deal with the whims of America, which he not so eloquently voiced upon his exit. 

What could have made this a night to remember would have been Zach striking of a deal with Eric or Jameka and using the Power of Veto... automatically putting Danielle up on the block and getting her out... all under Daddy Dick's brief HoH reign.  How awesome would that have been?!?  Likewise, I think that move would have got Zach some serious respect from the jury.   But unless we missed some "wink and nudge" to the camera showing that Zach has some "master plan" he's just be a big dupe to the Donatos.

My personal "deserves to win" opinion, as much as I hate to say it, in order, it's Danielle, Dick, Jameka, and Zach.  Danielle has been the master manipulator... wooing the boys and masterfully walking the tightrope of working with and against her father.  While I don't agree with/condone his tactics, Dick did play the game while avoiding a couple of near misses, and engineering most of the evictions.  Jameka and Zach were the proverbial "fly under the radar"  folks.  Jameka survived largely thanks to her non-participation in the HoH competitions, but I give her the edge with her long-term loyalty to her alliance.  My only Jameka fear is the whole "pre-ordained by God" part.  I guess I should give Zach credit for hanging around, but I still think he pretty much fell/lucked into it.   Honestly, I don't think I have any "want to win" picks.

Granted there's still time for things to change, but here's how I see the jury votes right now (minority voters in parentheses):

Danielle vs. Dick -  Danielle wins 7-0
Danielle vs. Jameka - Jameka wins 5-2 (Dick, Zach)
Danielle vs. Zach - Danielle wins 5-2 (Jen, Jameka)
Dick vs. Zach  -  Dick wins 4-3 (Jen, Amber, Jameka)
Dick vs. Jameka - Jameka wins 5-2 (Danielle, Zach)
Jameka vs. Zach -  Jameka wins 5-2 (Danielle, Dick)

I have Jameka winning regardless of her opponent, she being the only person who changes it to something other than a "deserves to win" competition... viewed as the "good" person.  As I said above, and as not one of most well-liked houseguests, Zach needs to make some bold last-minute maneuvers to even have an iota of a chance... but heck, second place wouldn't be too  bad either.
