OK, run down of what I think:
Braden...I wasn't watching yet, so no opinion
Casey...he's a 5th grade teacher. I guess that makes me like him, and he's older, like I am, so that makes me commiserate with him putting up with the "kids" in the house. I don't think he'll be the winner, though. He is testy and that puts people off.
Chima...she irritates me. Some people get under your skin. Chima is one of those people for me. Her laugh makes my skin crawl. She might get pretty far, though. She's very smart. I think she's really staying out of the light this week.
Jeff...I like Jeff more than any of the other guys. I think his alliance with Jordan will hurt him, though. He's too put-offish of everyone else. No alliances besides her will not win him this game.
Jordan...She's adorable, but a total fluff head. LOL She's a great pawn to put up again and again, so she'll survive a while for that reason, but besides that...she won't last until the end.
Kevin...Another under-the-radar player. Lydia wouldn't be my choice for an ally, though. Again, not enough of a player to last long enough to be the winner, in my opinion (of course, what is that worth since I haven't seen any of the other seasons? LOL)
Laura...I was glad to see her go. Ugh! What an awful personality!
Lydia...too much of a schemer for my blood. I don't like her "Look at me" attitude, either. Chima is like this too. Lydia does not make my skin crawl, but she makes me roll my eyes all the time.
Michele...smart, but a weak character. She could be an easy pawn, but I don't think people trust her, either. She's tight-lipped like Jeff, and so far as I can see, has not formed an alliance with anyone.
Natalie...the fact that she is 24, not 18 and lied to everyone about it started me off not liking her too much. She has aligned hersefl with Jessie, and that is working now, but we'll see if it pays off later.
Ronnie...even though he's a teacher, I do NOT like him. I really thought he was homosexual like Kevin when they first put him on. I really hope they go through with back-dooring him this week!
Russell...he's a snake, but he's playing the game well. I expected him to go up last week. Now I think it's a toss up betweeen him and Jessie next week. The house will be a calmer place with him gone.
Jessie...UGH!!! What a shallow, self-absorbed lame-brain. He can go at any time and I'll be glad. His HOH Twits are just a huge big-headed ego-trip. again...UGH!
So, those are my thoughts. Not sure who will win, but I'm enjoying it too much! LOL
