Again, why did Dan have to lie in such a personal manner? Why couldn't he have told Ollie before the POV that he wouldn't honor his deal? That's all I'm saying and not one person has responded to that.

Hey cherlym :waves:, JMO but I dont think Dan told Ollie before the pov ceremony because Dan wanted to avoid a **** storm! It doesnt make it right or wrong it was just game play. I think Ollie is being bashed and low on the popularity polls because of his relationship with april and not really playing the game until april was evicted. I didnt know people were held to a standard in the BB house :lol: they are all equal in my opinion I just like some better than others.

Actually Dan said he didn't tell Ollie before the POV because he wanted to "make good tv". And you're absolutely right they are all equal in the house, but outside the house they are held to different standards. What was the guy's name who called his charges retarded and lost his job? That had absolutely nothing to do with how he played the game and everything to do with him exposing his true character. People will be judged in their "real" lives on decisions they made on national television. I grew up thinking, "sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me." That's why I couldn't care less about Ollie's vocabulary, but am more offended by someone's actions. Ok, ok so I'm student of every metaphor in the book, but actions DO speak louder than words in my opinion.
I'm not defending Ollie's actions in anyway shape or form!!! While I'm ok with Dan breaking the deal, I'm just surprised that so many people think it was ok to humiliate Ollie in the manner that he did. That's really my point, I expected Dan to play with integrity, but BB is certainly the wrong game for that!
