The Final Stretch

[Bobby Jon Drinkard]

Here we are, one Tribal Council away from the final leg of this game and I have to think of not only what will get me to the final Tribal Council, but what will make me look best in the eyes of the jury when I DO get there. On one hand, yeah I could try to get Adam out because I feel he's the potentially biggest jury threat left in the game, but on the other hand, one thing I've been suspecting is that the jury would want me to look like I've gone through some sort of eye-opening phase and come to learn that "loyalty is of the utmost importance" and keeping Adam would do that possibly. Don't get me wrong, it's more than just "oh we made a last ditch Final 4 alliance with me, Adam, Tracy, and Penny, so gotta stick to that". I mean, I feel that the four of us have done more than Amanda in order to ensure that we make the end, so that's kinda there. Plus well, Penny and Tracy have been my allies for a LONG time in this game, and Adam's been straight up with me (I think, could be wrong), so trying to make any big last minute moves might be pretty pointless and stupid.

Besides, the jury could well say "oh, the douchebag hasn't 'learned' a damn thing, we're not going to give HIM our votes", so all in all it's probably stupid. Still though, I have to be prepared for anything since the game is still on and there's still the possibility of a plan against me. Right now I'm certainly thinking voting Amanda would be best all around (there's also that her vote would likely be more up in the air and up for grabs than an immensely pissed off Adam, especially one who would've been 'unnecessarily screwed' in the eyes of most), but strange things could happen and while it seems unlikely, it IS possible that Adam could be trying to get me out. I've gone this far with my eyes peeled, and I'm not about to close them yet.

Just throwing in that Amanda's been trying to turn everybody against each other and Adam was considering getting ME out for some...bizarre reason that's probably based on revenge for voting out Todd and Marcus. Of course, I'm also thinking that Amanda was getting to him and trying to egg him on to do it so that her name wouldn't come up once throughout the entire thing. She also said she has the "remove a juror" thing and well, she'd likely use it to remove PG, which would get rid of one vote that would likely go my way. Does she have a point about Adam being the biggest jury threat? Yes. Do I think him being gone would make me gain more votes than I'd possibly lose from voting him out? No.
