The Unbelievable Bloombergini Predicts the Big Brother 2 Winner

The so-called "Manly Man" has once again challenged me in a battle of predictions -- this time over the outcome of Big Brother 2. I have taken up this challenge and tell you right here how each vote will go and who will end up as the winner.
Now that Big Brother 2 is down to the final two, the Manly Man has once again “challenged” me to a duel of predictions. Apparently, he hadn’t embarrassed himself enough in the battle of predictions we had for Survivor 2. Of course, battling this guy is about as “challenging” as predicting whether the sun will rise tomorrow, but, hey, it’s a chance to get back to my fans.
I had offered to do predictions for this site back at the beginning of the show. When I offered up, in week one, that Justin would be the first one to leave the house, they laughed at me. “He’s not even nominated, you idiot!,” they said. Boy, were their faces red when I turned out to be right.
But the Manly Man didn’t challenge me so I could rub people’s faces in their previous errors. I can do that any time. If he wants to be embarrassed again, that’s his choice. So on with the show.
As we all know, it’s down to the final two: Nicole and Will. Along the way, Will has continually talked about how everybody should want to bring him to the finals because he would never win. Now people are raising questions about whether or not he really might be able to pull it off. Well, I have news for them: He was right all along. The Evil Doctor will not win, even up against the She-Devil. It will be close – the win will only be by one vote, but one vote or nine, she will still walk away with half a million bucks.
I will even go so far as to predict who will vote for each:
Sheryl – It would seem that Sheryl is a slam-dunk vote for Nicole, right? Well, not necessarily. Sure, she was mad at Chill Town for trying to take over early and dictate who should go – which ended up with a house-wide revolt that caused Sheryl to be tossed – but she left with the idea that Nicole would make it her mission to rid the house of Chill Town. Instead, look who’s by Nicole’s side: Chill Town’s very own evil doctor. So Sheryl is left with a choice: Vote for one of the people who caused her early eviction, or vote for the person who broke a pact regarding that same eviction. It would be a tough call for a mortal man, but I know that Sheryl sympathizes with what Nicole has been going through. That sympathy will prove just enough to swing her vote. Sheryl will vote for Nicole.
Autumn – There is little doubt as to how Autumn will vote. She was a special target of Chill Town, with Mike’s attempt to seduce her in order to get her vote and Chill Town’s backing of this move. Shannon, Will’s girlfriend, didn’t help matters any with the whole potato chip incident and several others like it. The anger she still feels towards all of Chill Town, including Will, is palpable in the spirit realm. Autumn will vote for Nicole.
Shannon – Similarly, there is no doubt where Shannon’s vote will go. I mean, she has been Will’s girlfriend (well, that’s what she claims – but I don’t do love life readings, so I won’t go into any more details on that). Shannon will vote for Will.
Mike – Again, there is no doubt where Mike’s vote will go. Do I really need to explain it any further? I didn’t think so. Mike will vote for Will.
Kent – This would be another toughie if I didn’t have full knowledge of all events, past and future, what has been, what will be, and what might have been. But I do. Kent didn’t like Will. Sure, he wasn't fond of Hardy and Nicole either, so he has conflicting feelings. Well, sort of. As he said Tuesday, he doesn't care which freak wins. Still, he needs to cast a vote. He will look deep inside and see that the dislike for Chill Town overrides everything else. Kent will vote for Nicole.
Krista – Krista told Nicole that she’d see her at the end. Well, now it’s that time. She almost certainly wouldn’t have voted for Nicole no matter who she faced at the end. The fact that it’s Will makes it that much more obvious. Krista will vote for Will.
Bunky – Bunky does everything according to his emotions. His aura radiates with that information. One thing I can predict for certain is that he will break down in tears as he casts his final vote, because he will realize that whoever he is voting for, he is also voting against giving half a million dollars to the other person. With this in mind, and considering everything he has seen Nicole go through, and knowing that Will is a doctor and therefore could make more money on his own, Bunky will vote for Nicole.
Hardy – Just as it is immediately obvious that Shannon and Mike will vote for Will, it is at least as obvious that Hardy will vote for Nicole.
Monica – Up until Tuesday, Monica had always been a hard one to read – even for me. She didn’t like Chill Town, which of course included Will. But later on, she was less than thrilled with the way Hardy and Nicole were controlling the house. In fact, she made it so plain on Tuesday, after her eviction, that one doesn't need to be psychic to know what she was feeling. People have been known to change their minds (as Colleen did just before the vote in the first Survivor -- though that turned out to not matter). But Monica will not change her mind. Monica will vote for Will.
And so it will be – Nicole will win, by a single vote. She will go home to her husband, and they will work on their communication. For example, banner planes will not be used again as a primary form of getting their feelings across to one another. Will will leave and try to stay together with Shannon. But as soon as he loses the half a million dollars, he will lose her as well. I’m not saying she’s shallow but… oh, actually, yes I am.
Mind you, this isn’t necessarily what I would like to see. As in the original Survivor, it is a choice in the lesser of two evils. Will was really quite an arrogant jerk early on, but he grew on us all – houseguest and viewer alike (well, okay, maybe not Nicole). I was cheering for Nicole early on, but that waned as the show went on and her behavior took a turn for the worse. It didn’t help that she was blaming the Internet viewers for her own mistakes.
When all is said and done, I’d have to say I want Will to win, just as I wanted Rich to win on Survivor. This is, in the end, a game. Will played that game better than anybody else, and so he deserves the prize. It won’t turn out that way, but I just foretell the future – I don’t control it.
