I didn't follow the season much, but, yes, that was an obnoxious jury. Stop talking? Immature Christian? Eeny, meeny, miny mo? One must wonder if three white people would have been treated with such derision.

I liked Yau from what I saw of him, but I don't see what everyone's so upset about. Usually, we don't like to see people acting secure at tribal council because of some deal they made. Yau must have had an incredible reservoir of good will built up for his deal not to be seen for what it was: an attempt to buy success in the game. Buy with a capital $$$. Frankly, I'm surprised Survivor allowed the deal given that agreements to split winnings are prohibited. Yes, people have horsetraded votes during the final immunity challenges, given up family visits, etc., but giving somebody a $30-40,000 prize is a whole different animal.

I don't know about keeping his integrity, but if he had honored the deal, Dreamz could have told the jury, "I'm not afraid of this man, this man who bought his way in." Or something like that.
