The AP twist benefitted Dick more than Daniele. If Dick was evicted that week, Daniele would have won the next HOH and put up two of the LNC, making it a
whole new game anyway. After that, it really didn't save either of them and the last three weeks when they were in the most danger, they made it on their
own to the very end.
Besides, the LNC wouldn't have fractured and Dick/Daniele wouldn't have been put up if they didn't turn on Eric because of the hinky votes and banners the week prior. Too many ifs to really speculate. Fact is, AP was part of the game and Daniele embraced it by being sweet and funny in her DR sessions so production would like her <3 |

She was a pretty good strategist, but she did have her flaws.
Like nominating Eric based off of a banner--and also when it actually WAS in her best interest to keep him. If he had gone that round instead of Kail like she wanted to, she would NOT have come anywhere close to winning the game. Further more, her performance in the game was contingent on lots of stuff that was out of her control: like her father going instead of Dustin in week 7. I do think she's a good player, don't get me wrong. But there were so many other factors this season, so much manipulation, that we didn't get to see Daniele on her own in the house--how she'd play in a setting that's without interference. Do I think she would have done well? Yes. In fact, I'm under the impression that had her dad not entered the house, she would have gone to the final 4 for sure, if not won. But all that said, she's still a whiney cunt and I can't stand the bitch. |

Yes, there have been pairs in the house before, but none that were literal family.Umm, Cowboy and Nakomis? Yes they were the only official pair this season but Eric and Jess had just as strong of a bond, same with Amber and Jameka, etc. They came in with huge targets on their back, heck they were nominated against eachother thrice. I think the best thing they've done is play good cop bad cop, and Daniele gets to be the good cop. |

I think she's definitely the best player this season--but it's hard to judge how good she really is because of the horrible playing of everyone else.
(Combined with the rigging/AP thing)
My gut tells me that an above average female player like Diane could have orchestrated her ouster, someone like Danielle would have eaten her and Dick alive. |

You can't say best player, best team, best strategy or any of that because this season was played with OUTSIDE INFLUENCES via AP. End.Of.Story.

Great job by the Donatos, and AP and DR and Allison, to get Danielle this win....okay fine. But come on people, could you image danielle playing against the
cast of BB7 All-Stars? She would be done within the first 3 weeks. She's not even the greatest Danielle in BB history. If Will Kirby is a 10 in greatest
player ever, then Danielle is a 1, bottom line, while the rest of this years cast, would be a 0.001. It's almost kind of embarrassing to hear people say
she's better then Will or some of the greats of this game.

Best player of the season, I will admit, but it doesn't say much what with the AP twist and having a relative who was willing to take bullets for her from
the very beginning.

How the hell was the America's Player brought into this? She had no idea about that lame twist. If anything, she charmed an even larger alliance than she
thought she had.
Dick and Daniele PWN - period. |

The season? Yes.
The show? NO! Will would have charmed her ass out of that house. He never needed to win. |

Like I said, Daniele was charming, funny, and sweet in her DRs for a reason. Everyone knows BB is one of the most influenced reality shows, mainly because its
live and production can see how the public reacts, much like Paradise Hotel. They have always favored certain houseguests and events, and there have always
been banners and America's Choice polls that gave insight.
Daniele played a much bigger game than any of us can fathom. |

Will wrote: Actually it's neither. Allison carried them both. This season was more about narcisism and unusual personality disorders. BB obviously did not choose any of this season's HGs for their strategic minds. I don't see any of this year's players making it anywhere near a top 10 best players list. I would agree that Daniele was probably the best player this season but that is not saying much. Despite what some may wish to believe (thanks production), D&D were not as estranged as we were initially led to believe. So there you have an automatic 2 person, unbreakable alliance. Throw in a bi-sexual "boyfriend" (good strategy) and the AP twist and now D&D have a 4 person alliance they didn't even know about (good for them but certainly not strategy). Dick was average at best. He would have been gone long ago without both internal and external help. His tirades were good for ratings but became sophmoric and predictable. In my mind, he jumped the shark when it took both the DR and AP to save him from eviction. Overall an interesting season but sooooo frustrating! If the BB casting directors continue down this road to perdition we should be in for another vile, filthy cast of characters next summer. Can't wait!! |
