Good Girls Don’t Finish Last

JeffJordan

If any of you watch the show Big Brother, you know that it can turn people from being normal when they walk in the door to crazy, lying, and malicious people when they walk out the door. On this past season, we saw our share of crazies walk out the door. However, in the end the good in people was rewarded.

Jeff and Jordan (Jordo) became “bff’s” from the beginning of the game and were also considered the under dogs. Thanks to America, Jeff was granted a very strong power and played it to get the best player in the house, Jesse, out. After that, they were leading the game. They led thru honestly and being nice people.

In the end Jordan won the $500k and Jeff, who was voted out towards the end, won $25k thru America’s votes.
