Go to CBS.com and watch some of the red carpet interviews. Rodney's picture should be in the dictionary next to "delusional jerk"!

He says he had it won; and that "even after Jen's speech, she raised her hand that she would have voted for him".

He insinuates CBS cheated him. He says CBS should never have given Carolyn a 2nd flint (referring back to a season where, after an hour, matches were given to final 2...and when 1 ran out of matches, she just had to sit and watch the other win).
When asked "didn't they give you a 2nd flint also?" He said "yeah, they gave me Carolyn's broken flint".

I couldn't even listen to it all...I didn't have my rubber boots on and I didn't need his bs all over my feet!

I think Shirin just wanted to thumb her nose at them...brag a bit...whatever; but yeah, probably not the brightest move. The unique thing about next season, is that the contestants will have seen every other contestant in a previous season...including this season. Usually they overlap and a return member will be going in as an unknown.
Heck, I need to go revisit. Is Shirin going back???
Might be interesting...might just be "been there done that/SOS" as previous seasons.

I might have just been too exhausted & distracted when I watched (6 yr old grand daughter was put in ICU at children's hospital that day with bacterial meningitis; so Survivor took a very back burner)...BUT, I can't remember much of anyone (other then Dan <gag>) talking at the reunion. Did they even show the rest? Not picturing many in my brain at all.
No closing arguments (I would think Mike brought up the fact that a million dollar survivor would know how to make fire in less then an hour)...no memory walk...no burning down the camp (except for someone dropping a suit coat on the fire) no interview with Mike after he won...no chatting up the others. Perhaps I need to watch again; but in my mind, it seemed lacking.

btw...Will looks fantastic! He was a different person on the red carpet interview. He kept his weight off and has lost more. Said "everyone else looked GQ and I looked National Geographic"! LOL! I did enjoy his interview.

The only person I liked from the beginning was Joe, but I knew he would get voted out. Didn't really like anyone after that. And Dan and Shirrin were beyond annoying. Can't believe she's coming back.

I guess they got the voting right. Mike did win a lot of the challenges.

I'm also surprised that people don't learn how to make fire before they go on the show. It's always an issue. And keeping it going? Anyone who's had to build a campfire or fire in a fireplace knows how to do that. Just basic scout stuff.

I think the editing probably made Dan look as good as possible. If they wanted to make him look bad, it would have been a lot easier. He's just a jerk. He talks about how happily married he is. I wonder what kind of woman could stand someone like him. Gag.
