ok i said a bit about this in the other thread, but it makes no sense to require that a weekly winner be "in order" as far as who the last two they keep on stage are. they never make any kind of claim that the last two standing are actually the bottom 2. the whole point of listing the order in this contest is in case they only announce a bottom 2. in fact, if it had to serve both purposes, it could lead to contradictions. for example, this week I picked sanjaya, haley and phil to be bottom 3. if there were only a bottom 2, i was pretty sure it would be haley and phil. if, however, sanjaya had been in the bottom 3 like i predicted, i think they would have decided to keep him and phil as the final 2 on stage for dramatic effect. if we really wanted to keep track of the elimination order, we'd have to make picks for bottom 2 and an ordered bottom 3. e.g., my picks would have been ((phil), haley), (((phil), sanjaya), haley).
