Russell Hantz has got to be smartest and dumbest player to ever play the game of SURVIVOR. Twice he's gone as far as he can in the game, leaving it in the jury's hands and twice he's come up empty.  How anyone can manipulate, lie and scheme to get some of the best players of the game eliminated and not know that bringing Sandra to the end would mean a victory for her, is just plain stupid.  Sandra, did everything to try to align herself with the hero's once they merged, did you not think her loyalty to over half of the jury would go unrewarded?  Seriously Russell, did you really not see that?  I guess it doesn't matter because they was no way you were gonna win the big prize no matter who you brought because your game as a villian, (albeit excellent) lacks the compassion to sway anybody that you send to the jury.  Instead of playing your game and trying to keep it a secret as to who you were manipulating, the great Russell always wants everyone to know who sent them packing and THAT, my friend, is never good.  I am personally a fan of Russell, he makes for good TV.  I almost feel a little bit of disappointment that he didn't win after a great season.

This was by far, one of the greatest seasons of Survivor, the boston Rob and Russell rivalry was great, I only wish it could've lasted longer.  Rob! how can you get played by Russell. Please come back for another season.
