I'm going to be very sad to see Renny go this week as I love her personality and I think she's played an excellent game. IMO, she's made (2) mistakes which cost her this game. The first mistake was the Authoritarian way that she ran her HOH (including the error of not putting up Ollie against April). But the most critical error was the one that she & Keesha shared Friday night before the VETO competition.
Several people had asked the DR if there was going to be a POV comp on Friday night/early Saturday morning. The DR would neither confirm or deny. Keesha finally became so impatient that she opened the wine. She, Jerry & Renny were enjoying a glass, Memphis was heading to the shower & Dan was in the DR. Ten minutes after she opened the wine, the DR announced that the POV would begin in 2 hours.
Jerry finished his wine and went to lay down. Memphis came out of the shower, had a glass of wine and was drinking it when the 2nd DR announcement was made at the 1 1/2 hr. point. He polished off his glass. Dan came out of the DR, and refused the wine offered to him. Keesha and Renny continued to finish off the wine.
Needless to say, by the time the POV comp rolled around both Keesha and Renny were very buzzed, shrieking, laughing and horsing around. A great time! When the feeds came back, they were both crying. Surprisingly enough, they had both lost.
Although I fully understand the desire to get buzzed, sacrificing a competition for the release was a serious lapse in judgment. They had spent the entire day talking about how crucial it was that one or the other of them won the POV, and were aware of the scenario that if Keesha came off the block that Memphis would go up, and if Renny won the POV they were both safe. Yet they both opted to handicap themselves - the result being that Renny is going home this week. $500K is a lot of money to spend on a buzz.:confused:
