Big Talkers but no Action

Why do you think so many people this season bring up these big schemes even when they are relatively safe?
For example:
Natalie goes on and on about making it Girl Power, but shed' be relatively safe with her crew of Adam, Sheila and Ryan if she just kept her mouth shut. Lots of talk, no action.
Then James sells Ryan and Sheila the idea of keeping him in, and Ryan and Sheila seem to seriously be considering it.... but why? Once again, Sharon is more on their side them James?
It seems like this season a lot of people have come up with schemes to through the house upside down but no one follows through! Adam sort of followed through, but in the end James left anyway so what difference did that make.
In the past, when people said they were going to through the house on it's head, THEY ACTUALLY DID IT! When people schemed of other alliances, they actually followed through. Do you think this season everyone is pretty cowardly and unwilling to leave their alliances for fear that it won't work out?

yeah. see that's why I'm sorta sad that James went. I kinda would have liked to see that alliance form of making Sharon go and screwing Natalie. At first I liked Natalie... until after Matt left. Actually, I think i liked her until she won HOH. I just, I don't know.
I did figure out (sort of off topic) what I would do if I was on BB. I would... within the first week or so ... align myself with a James or an ED. granted ED won over Danielle last season, but ... if you align yourself with someone like them and go to the final two together, who would be the winner? You or them?
Like I would make it a secret alliance of course. but duh.
Think about it. With Natalie sending James, Chelsia, and Josh to elimination... and we'll guess Sharon this week. That'll be 4 out of 5 people who WON'T be voting for her. Depending how it goes down the next couple of weeks... if say Natalie and Adam are bottom two, who would win? ADAM. If it were Natalie and Sharon. SHARON. Natalie and Ryan... RYAN. I guarantee there is NO ONE left that Natalie would win over. DUH.
and I think all in all that's why I would have liked to see James stay. Because that would have been the SMART choice. but it seems the idiots on these shows really don't think about the end result.
I definitely think that's the problem this season. They aren't cowards. They just aren't thinking about the end result.
I mean, duh. If say Sharon goes home this week. It's TEAM CHRIST that's left. only 2 of the 4 can make it to the bottom 2. so they are going to have to turn on each other. Idiots.

Yeah I think Natalie is losing no matter what and actually these people are smart to keep her around! If they start counting the number, the only person she has voting for her is probably Matt.
Yeah they don't think about who they want to be up against but instead who they want to screw over each week. Basically Natalie really has no one right now. Everyone else has already stated to someone else that they'd like to be final 2. Yet the truth is they should ALL bring Nat to the final 2 b/c she won't win!!! I think everyone is hoping Nat will win final HOH so she can't be voted out and then she'll definitely be final 2 and they'll all kiss her but to be with her b/c they know that whoever is by Nat in the end would win.
The only way Nat can win right now is if someone else does something to really tick everyone off (even the jury)

Yeah. I mean at this point the smart thing is to align with Nat. But I'm saying in the beginning the smarter choice would have been james. But since James is gone... it's Nat all the way.
at this point, I'd actually like to see the bottom two be Sheila and Adam. I think they're the only ones who actually deserve it.

They are terribly cowardly! The only two who really followed through with what they said they would do were Chelsia and James. First, James went against his word to not put up Matt and, he did turn the house upside down. Then, Chelsia said that if she was evicted, she would go out with a bang and, she did. She flung insults like a pebble or rock from a slingshot. Otherwise, no one else has any follow through.

Yep so far most of these people have too many ideas and nothing actually happens. It's like when I hear people talking about schemes and plans, I dont even believe them anymore until it happens b/c it usually never does.
BB edits it to make it appear like things might flip flop, but overall this season has been too predictable. It seems like whatever people say at the start of the week is 99% of the time exactly what happens.

I agree! It would have been nice to see one person stand up and do what they thought they might do, and said they might do just to stir the pot. Come on! I get the risk of making a move that might cost you the $ in the end but, the chances of you winning the $ in the first place was already pretty low. 1 in 16? Duh! You were likely not going to win it anyway! Why not take some chances?

To me, these people have no idea how to play the game. I would like the show to go back to people who play the game and not to look pretty and hooking up. These people are so set in going to the end with their group they forget that this is a game and you will have to screw over some of these people.

Yeah I think they are a bunch of cowards. They seem to be so focused on who said what they forget to play the game. And all the whispering drives me nuts. Just say it they all know what youre saying anyways lol.
