Help Me, Am I Really Rooting For Big Brother's Zach?

"I've been brain farting for the first couple of minutes of this game."
-Zach

No, Zach, you've been brain farting for the first two and a half months of this game.

I hate to agree with Dick, especially when he articulates things so charmingly, but Zach really is an overblown idiot (see my post Zach: Tedious -- Tragic -- Triumphant?)

Having said that, I find myself cheering, "Go Zach!" I just can't bring myself to root for an all-Donato Final 2. I admit, they probably played the game the best, strategy-wise. But they were also some of the most despicable gameplayers I have seen on any reality tv show. I include Daniele in that notorious distinction -- she was more than compliant in Dick's evil ways.

Plus, I think a Dick vs. Daniele Final 2 would result in a landslide for Daniele. Dick's blown Eric, Jessica, Amber, Jen and Zach's votes -- it's a no-brainer who would win. Based on what the sequestered houseguests said in tonight's episode, a Zach/Daniele Final 2 might not be the blowout I thought it might be. And a Zach/Dick Final 2, at this point, would probably come down to a single vote.

Not that I'm endorsing Zach for winner -- he's really good for nothing. I just can't stomach rewarding the Donatos with $550K for being hateful, hypocritcal people.

You are soooo right on! I found myself using the same "Go Zach!" during the competition. A double Donato Duet would be too much for the final. I think I will continue "Go Zach!" to the end!

I agree that an all Donato final two would be hard to stomach. I have to commend both of them for making it this far when they were so controversial from the get-go, but I so do not want them to get the 500K! Dick is a filthy mouthed control freak and Daniele is letting her true colors show whenever things don't go her way. I just think it is a shame that BB screwed with Eric's game because it inevitably cost him and Jessica the game.

I totally diagree. i would never root for Zach. He has done nothing in this game. The Donato's deserve to win this game hands down. they played the game the best. It might not have been a moral game on Dicks part but that is his strategy. wether you like it or not it worked. As far as Dani goes she pretty much dominated all the comps. she also played a good strtegic game. Isnt that what the winner should be determined from is how well you played the game. Thats the problem with everyone they want to take things personally in the game. The winner should be who played the game the best. Not if you liked there behavoir, personality, ect. They did not sign up for bb8 to make friends they signed up for the money. So people should stop bashing the Donatos for playing a hell of a game. Just remember its a GAME and the Donatos plyed it to the fullest. So go Donatos i am rooting for you.

WTF is so wrong with the UTR strategy that BB fans would object to it more than the underhanded, creepy, whiny, self-entitled, intimidation, threatening tactics that D&D have played? Dick should've been shoved out the front door with the nasty, bullying of Jen and other housemates and then, Danielle would not have had him to hide all of her lying, devious gameplay. Where else in the world could being a dull guy with no social skills rise to the top? Hell, yeah, I'm rooting for Zach! Don't let D&D win the 500K - they should get both of their asses kicked for the despictable backstabbing and lying and bullying they have done in the game.

Zack has done exactly what he's needed to do in this game to get to where he is without being a complete @ss. He has led everyone in the house to believe that he is a baffoon so as not to appear as any threat. In the last few weeks when he's needed to win to advance he's done it. He absolutely crushed the Donatos in the Bunny Hop last night and he's going to do it again on Thursday. He'll send Dani packing and will win easily against Dick.

I am totally rooting for Zach. Why aren't people giving him enough credit? Flying under the radar is one of the BEST (and hardest) ways to make it to the end. Zach did this all on his own, unlike D&D. I am also puzzled by viewers comments about Zach being an idiot. The guy has a bachelors degree in Business Marketing and a bachelors degree in Graphic Design. You can't tell me he didn't have this planned out all along. He is no idiot...

Go Zach! Crush the Donatos. One more comp to go!!!!!!!

Zach won me over...in a bunnysuit no less. He didn't reveal his true self until wearing a disguise.

I like the guy. He may be antisocial but who can blame him with the lot he found himself among. It's not like any of the contestants were warm and loving.

Against The Donato's, he is a person of character - despite all their comments he's a racist in posession of a small appendage.

Go Zach! If a Donato wins, it's a travesty of justice (connived by producers who thought reconciliation between loathful human beings, and ample ratings, were enough to warrant viewership).

Both Dick and Danielle know nothing of good sportsmanship. Hopefully their tactics will not set the stage for further abuse - verbal AND physical (when is burning someone with a lit cigarette not cause for eviction).

The Donato's deserve (and enable) each other. Their moment of enlightenment has long passed. Their ignorance is bliss most difficult to watch.

I'm not routing for Zach, well, maybe a little. I'm rooting AGAINST Danielle and Evel, two of the most despicable, egocentric BB house guests ever. Go, Zach!
