      I agree, I liked watching the new Parvati on Winners at War. She got swap screwed into a 4-person pregame alliance in fact from what Michele said it sort of screwed up that alliance too because they had to turn on each early. However, it was cool seeing her playing a better social game. I actually think if she made it to the finals people would have felt good voting for her while in the past the jury begrudgingly voted for her. I could see Russell making similar adjustments and playing very well.

      Survivor is a fundamentally social game about getting the people you vote out to like you and give you a million dollars. It’s about reading the other castaways, figuring out what kind of gameplay they respect, and modifying your strategy to impress the people who will decide your fate. Tommy read the other contestants like a book. He knew that there were more people in the jury who would vote for the person who made a personal relationship with them than would vote for a more dominant player in terms of challenges and advantages. He built relationships with the other contestants and leveraged those relationships for information, and ultimately jury votes. He created a situation where he never needed to win immunity or find hidden advantages. It wasn’t flashy gameplay, but it was no less impressive than a player like Tony Vlachos one Rob Mariano. Tommy manipulated an island full of people into giving him a million dollars for just hanging out with them for a month. He never had to intimidate or force people. He just listened to them, figured out what made them tick and played them like a fiddle. Season 39 had interesting gameplay and a meticulous and strategic winner. His game was subtle, nuanced, different, and ultimately pretty interesting to watch.

      How can you call David vs Goliath passive gameplay? In that season, you’ve got the first correct use of an idol nullifier, the first time a minority alliance successfully split their vote, several correct idol plays, a fake idol play, several blindsides throughout both the pre- and post-merge, and a perfectly timed immunity run. That cast was at each other’s throats the entire game and they innovated the strategic aspects of the game more than most recent seasons.

    This has been one of THE BEST RUclips videos I've seen you do, Russell. I really appreciate how you've matured, and how you take ownership of your dark days. That said, I agree with everything you said. About Richard Hatch: he is an intelligent man, but he's NOT a smart man. Ever since the Sue Hawk debacle, he's never been on Survivor again. A lawsuit ensued, Sue Hawk against the world, but she finally got over it and dropped it. I don't blame her for what some people call her "overraaction" to Hatch's penis accidentally brushing her thigh in the Challenge. She feels the way she feels. But here's who I blame: CBS should never have allowed Hatch to play the challenges naked. It's completely uncalled for. He's an idiot. In my opinion, I think it's abusive for his Tribe to have to see his penis everyday, day in and day out. There's no need for his nudity. He's crying out for attention. He gets it all right! I don't think CBS will EVER allow him on the show again because even if they make him sign a NO NUDITY clause, he'll blow it off and strip down DURING the filming. And there's another "incident" on their hands. It was hard enough for CBS to decide when to yank the touchy-feely Weinstein Wannabe off Season 39! Can you imagine trying to control Hatch? He'd strip down, get pulled, and enjoy his 37 day paid vacation at a local hideout on the CBS dime! He'd be laughing at CBS for being so stupid to have him on again. I'd love to see Hatch on the show, don't get me wrong. I think he's hilarious. And the editing blurs out his penis so I don't have to look at it! It's really too bad he's such an idiot. But sometimes highly intelligent people are idiots in life. He's an interesting character that we'll never get to see on the Island ever again. Instead we have to watch Vanilla Sarah! Bletch!

      @@reubenmanzo2054 I don't know what possessed Hatch to do the Challenge buck naked. He's an exhibitionist, for sure. It was a very physical challenge! A network of intersecting 2-6 planks were placed over a pond. The Survivors had to get from Point A to Point B to win points, and many times this meant you faced off with a Survivor from the other Tribe. You had to inch around each other, much like Everest climbers going UP have to inch around climbers going DOWN on the Hillary Step! . A single file 6" path, with a 10, 000 ft drop on one side and 8,000 ft drop on the other!; Anyway, Richard's Johnson was flippin" and floppin' everywhere. One mistake and he could've ripped it off on the 2x6 as he fell into the drink. Survivor SHOULD NOT allow nudity in Challenges especially. In camp, it's annoying, offensive and laughably pathetic. But in a physical challenge, it's outright insane. That's how Sue Hawk got "touched" by the Flying Johnson. It took her a day and a half to process the encounter, then SHE BLEW A GASKET. Sue Hawk, for all she seems so TOUGH & ROWDY is really a very sensitive woman.

It's him, Coach and Phillip in the ftc. Of course it'll be a blowout, Coach HAS to win.

To go back to back seasons and know where the vote was going to land every tribal says a lot about the great game you played. You deserved both of wins. You played in a time where the game was very personal. If you played in recent years, I believe you would have won. You honestly impacted and changed the game. After you, the game slowly progressed to a more cutthroat game and juries have become more respectful to good game moves.

    I miss Russell’s game play. I mean, what a legend: First to sabotage his own tribe, first to find numerous idols without clues...brilliant. I like Natalie, but Russell should have won. I think the Samoa jury was the beginning of bitter juries not awarding Sole Survivor to the most deserving person. Russell, you are in good company. Sometimes I look at the final four of all seasons and can name at least 13 who deserved to win over the eventual winner. Dominic, Rick Devens, David Wright, etc. I could go in and on....

      he should of left the cass rivalry alone. she did blind slide him. but others i felt did him worse. he just kept the hate goin even thru the first season. that attention i think hurt him in jury.

    Russel, I loved your mischief when you first played. You were the villain I didn’t hate. Now, I love seeing how you’ve grown and it seems like your mind is sharper, wiser and you have learned the meaning of tempered restraint. I’m rooting for you to play again. You need the title of sole survivor

    I used to think of you as a little petty troll, but after watching just this one video, I changed my mind. I like how you touch on rumors or troubles in this video , but you don’t make it the front issue. I like how you describe the winners and your thoughts on them. I am very impressed!

    I can't agree more that island of the idols was terrible not only did the twist suck but it also screwed over good players (Jamal) and the cast sucked. Nobody out there was a real player. If Tommy played in any other season he would've been eaten alive

    Richard does think everybody's stupid but him, and thanks for clarifying that nones naked on the island except hatch cause I was skeptical about that when he said it, also Tommy just prolly didn't get the call because it was too close, I hope earl and Vecepia both get chances later as well

    Natalie white would have been basically what michelle fitzgerald was to this season. A lot of people do not respect michelle but 2 for 2 in season never been voted out. I bet if natalie white came back she would have made it to a final 5 or 6 because she would not be seen as a threat.
