JP Hilsaback Age: 28 Occupation: Firefighter When I see JP, I see a strong guy that is going to be very good challenge wise for the Heroes. He says he is like Jay Starret which really doesn't make a whole lot of sense because of his look, but who knows? He said that he knows there is a time when you need to move forward and there is a time when you need to lay back. This could just be because we are coming off of BB19 where the guy that said this (Matt) turned out to be one of the biggest duds in Big Brother history. Right now I am just very skeptical of this strategy. It wouldn't be a surprise if Matt meets a female out on the island and becomes very smitten with her acting as her puppet. When this happens, it will be interesting to see if people will recognize this and cut him, or wait until after the merge. It really is a toss up. Prediction: Merge
Chrissy Hofbeck Age: 46 Occupation: Actuary You knew it was coming folks, the first red flag on the Heroes tribe. Not that Chrissy is terrible, but there is just a lot of things that raise some eyebrows. She graduated with a degree in math which means clearly she is very smart. However, she then starts talking about how because she is an actuary, she is used to predicting the future based off of the numbers. The problem here is Survivor is not numbers. Sure there are some numbers involved, but the human element is the thing that makes Survivor so intriguing. We've seen numerous people in the past link their profession to Survivor and it almost never works out. I can see her totally not making strong relationships and just rubbing everyone the wrong way. In her video, she talked about how she is one of the women pioneers in her industry, which is all fine and dandy, but she almost got a little preachy on the subject. Bringing in politics to Survivor is never good idea even if everyone on your tribe shares your views. I can see her really digging in her ideals to her tribe mates and getting on everyone's nerves. The Heroes tribe won't lose many challenges, but when they do, I expect Chrissy to be voted out. Prediction: Pre-Merge
