Dear Yo_Respeck,
Your boy can't dance and his singing is weird. Elliot did that 50x better last year (with worse dancing).

HE HAS ZERO CHANCE!! if he makes top 5, i will retire Granny the poster foe-EVAH.

Big words for a little old lady. Actually I was talking about Antonella Barba being a good price at 7. It's pretty much a break even proposition since she has no chance of being voted off.(unless she turns out to be a man)LOL

I haven't heard a single person sound good yet.

I think AI will lose a lot of it's popularity after this year.

Or, women will dominate.

For some reason my first reaction when seeing the Top 24 was that a woman would win, even though none were spectacular.

they ALL sucked in season 1 until top 10-ish. that includes kelly.

and maybe a C for gambling purposes...I would have no clue what to think of everyone at this point

[/ QUOTE ]


nobody, and i mean nobody (producers, cowell, us donks) has enough information at this point to be making any moves that are anything but purely speculative.

anybody that has more than 20% of their nut in play by now is destined to have a losing season.

People on this forum are having a hard time letting Sundance go. At $7 right now, he is overvalued. With the girls performing tomorrow, his price will drop.

I will definitely agree that he had an amazing audition but it could be that the song he sang for that is the only type of song that projects his voice well. Furthermore, I don't think he sings well under pressue and after tonight, his confidence will be shot. He's going to need an overwhelming performance next time to keep from being part of the next wave of guys to go.

FWIW, I sold all (5) contracts I had on him. Maybe I'll regret it later, but Sundance has proven everyone wrong twice now.

are you kidding me?

$7, by definition, can't be labeled over-valued.

you can either consider him totally dead money (TDM), or else $7 is quite a bargain. there is no value in between for a constestant like this imo. if he performs well SOON, he has a huge fan base that will make $7 look pretty damn good. he needs just one break-out performance.

I don't know why, but I really liked Sundance's performance. The vocals were spotty, but I thought his voice was very rich.

Sundance needs to take three or four shots of liquor before his performance and he will kick ass. He just looks really nervous. I think he really could kick ass if he can just relax. He def needs to pick a better song.

It is probably safe to post this now to compare:

Granny,
TY for agreeing with me, I was starting to feel alone with everyone backing Richardson except for me and one or two others.

I must say I was wrong on my ratings, though. Although Sundance was bad, I prefered his song to both Paul Kim and Nicholas. If I had just been listening and not watching, he might've been even higher. That being said, he needs to pick it up, he's got the voice but he needs something more to stay alive in the competiton.

Also wtf on Phil Stacey, he gave one of the top 2 performances and went DOWN? I would pick him up now if I had any money around, he's top 12 material. Sanjaya is probably a good buy now that he's dropped considerably, he isn't as bad as he sounded yesterday.

[fightingcoward]

I agree with Sanjaya being undervalued I'd pick him up if I didn't have money tied up in others.. His fan base looks to be solid based on idol forums and dialidol results so if he turns in a good performance next week his value will go up. However if Simon says he bores him to death again then I think Sanjaya is done.

[pokerpunchout]

For what it is worth, I liked Stacey, Richardson, and Sligh in that order tonight.
