^ Maybe half the "fans" were ignored because they were not actually fans, as we have since found out, and giving them more air time would have showed that?

Where Rob crossed the line IMO, is when he bragged to his brother about how he snaked him. It's one thing to screw over a friend in the spirit of the game, it's a whole other thing to boast about it like an immature prick.
Exactly. Calling Lex, one of his long time friends, a dumbass was completely unnecessary and just shows how immature he was and probably still is.


We didn't see most of the footage, it wouldn't suprise me if Lex crossed the line first, infact he did. He wanted Rob to destroy his own game by making an alliance(Lex, Tom, Kathy and himself) that he would have no way of winning in, destroy his relationships with Chapera and graciously accept a fourth place finish. Rob called his bluff. Is he immature? Yes, but he is not the morally objectionable one here. Lex wanted Rob to essentially kiss his feet and call him master.
I'm not saying that Lex was blameless, or anything of the sort. I'm saying that Rob was an absolute dickhead in how he treated his "friend". You say Lex crossed the line first? How exactly? And before you answer, think back - I'm referring to stooping to the lowest of the low in treating your friends by what you say about them. I didn't see Lex refer to Rob or anyone else as a dumbass, or call his other "friend's" son names on international TV. That was more "morally objectionable" and malicious than anything Lex or Tom did to him. Rob was the ungracious one here - he could have done everything he did, without the snide and rude comments. And if he had done it like that, he may well have actually won - but we'll never know.

And one more thing - you say in an alliance of Lex, Tom, Kathy and Rob, that Rob would have "no chance of winning" and would have to "graciously accept 4th place". How the fuck do you know what would have happened in that scenario? Fact: you, and the rest of us, have absolutely no way of knowing how he would have done, BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. In fact, the chances are he could well have come out on top and won it all, because of his age and fitness, but again, we'll never know.

Maybe since ASS Rob has matured, I hope so, and I hope for his sake that he now treats his friends with respect, cause that's something we did not see from him.
