- Survivor on the 'Row-
** Loveable Loser's ** by: Andy Canales Texas Death Row WOW....How insane was that? The whole episode was just so crazy, and sad! It fit with the insanity of Survivor and how intense it is as they go thru each day, dealing with lack of food, sleep, any kind of comfort, not to mention the elements of the island itself, which are bad in seasons and then to face the loss of a team mate when you desperately need them, to try to get ONE leg on the rung of the ladder that is Survivor....because without ever getting a foot on that ladder you become roadkill, that is forced to eat their own. I've followed Survivor since season ONE, and sure we have all seen some crazy things, but a SNAKE?! A snake! That was hard to watch, as Jake went thru the shock and fear of a horrible situation, where your very life is in danger! For the first time, this "reality" show became REAL...and THAT is what survival is about, isn't it? We face it each day, and its not a joke, because we all live day to day, and one step away from death, and that IS life, doncha agree? Seeing Jakes struggle with fear and the shock of it all, reminded me of where I am, and have lived all my adult life...PRISON! Truth is, its one of the reasons I love this show, because it reminds me of prison and trying to survive each day, as those around you are trying to Out Wit, Out Last, and Out Play you, each day in this madhouse...But, it still was a SHOW! Yet, tonight was a reality check for all of them, as they heard the news and looked at the very waters they would have to dive in to, knowing that the danger is REAL, and the fear of the game is now...REALITY. The best part of this, was how the players began to PLAY! YES!! That is how the GAME is to go, because in reality, that life, that's how you face your day...Survivors Ready, Set, GO! That is survival to the fullest..You can't dwell on the lose, and you can't whine or cry about the hand you been dealt..you HAVE to pick up the flag and MARCH ON! All 3 tribes went to work and within that there were moments of real gameplay..MC and that young dude, Stephen put in work..They made a plan and stuck to it, even adapting to the way the other tribe members chose to work, and you know what..They Came Up! THAT is how ya do it.. for the realz! Now, look at the flip side of that coin...The Uli tribe go all kumbaya searching for the Beware Advantage, and now they all know who has it and THAT is a double edged sword. One that will cut both ways, for the tribe, and the one who waved it around.....dumbass! But the PLAYA of the week, goes to Sophi!! She went to work..after that horror show at the Immunity Challenge, she played the game like your suppose to, am I right? She saw the plan with Jeremiah was a possible bomb, for HER game, she went into stealth mode and good all ninja on it..Whaaaat??!! Don't judge her people! INFORMATION IS POWER! That, boys and girls is Survivor 101, believe that! What really shocked me was this..That they actually went to tribal AFTER Jake was hurt. Every time, that I remember, when a player is injured and removed from the game due to that injury, they cancelled the Tribal for that week, because a player was removed from the game..but not this time..why? Your down to 3 on a Tribe, which sucks, to lose someone like Jake, and y'all throw a monkey wrench in to stir it up?? That's a grimy move, brah! So we are set now..the game is about to go to another level, and we shall see who can Survive the grind of REAL..My praise and best wishes are for the "Lovable Loser's" who just couldn't make over the hill..BUT! The great thing about the game, is that all you wanna do is: SURVIVE, to fight on the next day! Peace, Andy Canales Texas Death Row Livingston, Texas 77351
