Fuck all of you for interrupting my sunbath!
BOB DAWG, JAY & TED, hello again! Before I can say anything else, I would like to congratulate the three of you for surviving this long journey. This game was probably one of the most shocking and funniest that I've ever played during my whole life and, seriously, making this far is already huge on its own, but I also feel like most of you really earned your places in this Final Tribal Council. It was a hard game in all of the senses, but you outlasted all of us in the Jury, which means you certainly must have done a hell of a good job to be sitting here.
But, as you already know, this is the end of the game for you. The decision of who wins and who loses is not up to any of you, it's up to me and my lovely friends at the jury. It's time for the three of you to really show to every single one of us what are you made of and why you should deserve our vote. And, believe me, my vote is really up in the air.
Actually, when I say it's up in the air it is because I don't know if I should vote for either Bob Dawg or Ted. When Kelly got voted out and I knew my ass was on the freaking line, I seriously thought I should vote for Jay just for the joke of it, but than I got my shit together and realized that this is game was not a joke at all, specially after Jay started giving the most delusional statements and answers here in the Final Tribal Council. Seriosuly, Jay, please listen carefully to what I'm about to say:
You can call yourself The Silent Assassin or whatever makes you feel good at night, but that's still gonna be the truth, because we were all playing this game. We saw that you were not the Man Behind The Curtains or some shit that you are trying to make us think. Seriously, you could have seriously swayed some votes just saying that you definitely rode some coattails to make as far as you did and throw both Ted and Bob under the bus, but you are really trying to propose this idea that you were the mastermind or the puppet master of the game, which just makes me laugh as hard I possibly can. You can still answer my questions, but, read my words, I'm not gonna vote for you because I respect this game. Also, I respect myself, Brett, Lex, Ted, Bob Dawg and all of the member of the Jury. Voting for you would just be a slap in the face of everyone who played in this season, because that all of the hard work to survive until the end would mean absolutely nothing. And I'm not letting that happen, sorry!
Now that were done with the pawns, it's time to talk about the two best players in this competition. I'm not ashamed to say that I was outplayed, outwited and outlasted by the both of you because you really made this game and all of the jurors your bitch from start to finish. If someone told me in the middle of all of those amazing blindsides that a full alliance could make all the way to the Final Tribal Council, I would call that person a fucking delusional moron, but you guys absolutely did it. You were loyal to each other and never backstabbed any of yourselves, even after I tried... And I tried... And I tried... Seriously, it takes a lot stay true to an alliance in this game with so many opportunities, so I gotta give you guys some real credit for that.
Bob Dawg, man, what you did to me was just impressive. Actually, not just me. I think Kourtney, Kelly, Mike and myself really bought your whole "Gwadatoo Outsider" act and, with that, I think you definitely made sure that you and your buddies were safe until you had the majority of the votes. I could really be just talking about how much you hurt me and Kelly for putting a knife on our backs, but I'll leave all of the bitterness to Judd because his butt is still hurt after that delicious blindside. I can see that you did everything you could to get here to this point in the competition and, well, you did, but I'm not sure if I totally appreciate your gameplay.
You were definitely agressive and smart during all of your moves, but you weren't afraid of lying straight to people's faces, stabbing them in the back and breaking their hearts. You could have chosen a very different path, specially after you already knew that Gwadatoo already had the numbers to dominate the rest of the competition, but you still prefered to give me and Kelly some false hope, which was just a cold and jerky thing to do, in my opinion, but you didn't and I really think that's the reason you're sitting here in the Final Tribal Council. If you weren't lying and betraying people, I really think you would be a part of the jury and not of the Final Three.
Also, I think you are definitely one of the biggest reasons why this game was so AMAZING to play. You weren't afraid to make risky and fun moves just to get you and the people you were loyal too (Ted and Jay) into a better position. You don't settle down for anything and I think that's one of the best things about your whole strategy. If you don't like to play a boring game without any surprises and shake-ups and I love that about your personality, so I gotta give you some props. Your only mistake, which I have to remind you TIME AFTER TIME is that you brought another AWESOME player with you to the end, which is really gonna make your path to victory a lot tougher.
Ted, Ted, Ted... I fucking love to say one thing to everyone else that played this game: I TOLD YOU SO. Since the beginning of the merge, I knew you were gonna be sitting here on the Final Three. In my opinion, you played almost a flawless game in this competition. Seriously, I have to confess I'm just jealous of everything that you did and HOW you did it, because it just amazes me that you were involved in everyone's elimination, except for Judd's, but still only made one or two enemies, which don't seem all that bitter at you as Bob Dawg's enemies are.
You made this far without getting any blood on your hands while all the members of the Jury were voted out by either a blindside or a stab in the backs, which is just impressive. I really think you let both Jay and Bob Dawg do all of you dirty work, while you made a lot of decisions and power moves that propelled you and your whole alliance further down the line. You really found the balance between letting your allies and yourself do the hard work, but you somehow never got blamed for any of the backstabbing, lies and drama that happened, except for Mary and Coach, which just shows that you had a great social game.
Also, I have to say I'm really grateful for you what you did for me. You and Bob Dawg really helped me get to where I eventually got here, but, while Bob saved me at Final Eleven by voting for Judd and not me when I my skinny ass was on the chopping block for the first time, it was my deal with you that really set in stone by place at the Final Four, basically. I don't know if everyone knows exactly what happend, so I'll explain quickly.
In the Survivor Auction, I won a secret chest that was closed and you won a toolbox that would allow me to open it. Inside it, there was an immunity necklace that should be used before the votes were all cast at the Tribal Council. In the Double Boot Week, you proposed me a really decent deal. My ass was, yet again, SURPRISE SURPRISE, on the line, so you offered my safety in order to get the chest. I thought my Hidden Immunity Idol was real at the time, but I still accepted your offer because I really thought it would make our relationship better and, finally, I would be inside the loop about the votes, which was a really smart thing to do because the idol was fake and I was really going home otherwise.
After that, Gwadatoo quickly realized that Coach and Ace were just huge targets that couldn't stay in the game and then it was just you guys, me and Kelly. I knew our asses were on the line, so I pushed for everyone to vote for you, Ted, because you played an amazing game and I really thought you have a lot of votes in the bags, which you still apparently do, but nobody seemed to listen to me, just my dear Kelly. So, I have to applaud you for having such a strong bond with Jay and Bobby Dawg because, if they weren't so loyal to you, you would be probably sitting here on the Jury instead of me or Kelly.
Again, congratulations to everyone here. Making Final Three in this hard game already makes you a very deserving person, but I'm here to choose the best winner possible, so it's for you to answer one quick question:
Why do the people sitting next to you deserve win MORE THAN YOU?
Also...
CHOOSE A MUSIC VIDEO THAT BEST REPRESENTS EACH MEMBER OF THE JURY!
Along with the music video, please say why you chose each song. All that all of that into considering because my vote is still up in the air.
Yet again, I have to congratulate all of you for making this far into such an amazing game and say thanks for giving such a great experience in this game. I loved every moment of it and I'm really glad I played it. Also, I wish the best of luck for everyone!
