Jeff Probst's Assessment

(Transcript by SurvivorFever.net 8.12.05)
In a web clip "Survivor: Guatemala" host Jeff Probst assesses the contestants, commenting on each participant's strengths and weaknesses.

Ami seems to be a hard worker. Certainly has the job that has put her in social situations where she's had to deal with alot of different people. That could be a skill that really serves her well. Her rough edges are the things that could really get her in trouble out here.

Judd is a guy we liked the second he walked in the door. He's this big jovial personality. A doorman from New York city. The big question with Judd is going to be, can he hack it.

Brooke is one that I'm not sure which way she is going to go. She seems like she's very bright. Could be a nice quiet leader or Brooke could go the other way and sort of fade away.

Blake appears on paper to be a guy's guy. Handsome guy, girls like him. That can work for you or against you.

Brianna, I think Brianna has a reason to be out here. It's not about adventure and it's not about money. It's about proving something to herself. I always love those stories.

Brandon is from my part of the world, Kansas. He comes off as "hey, I just want to have fun". I don't know if I'm buying that.

Danni is someone that I think people are probably going to get behind. She's in great shape. She's tall and she's got a competition background.

Margaret is a nurse, a caregiver. She's also a mother, she's raised a family and dealt with those dynamics and she's athletic. Those are 3 big qualities and I think Margaret could do really well in this game.

Cindy is a wild card in this sense...she works with animals, she's out in nature alot. It seems like the question for Cindy is going to be...what happens when the conflict comes.

Gary Hogeboom is a favorite in this sense...he's played at the highest level. Played in the NFL and played in the quarterback spot, the lead spot, where you lead a team. And that is what Survivor is like. You're leading a tribe of people in big time moments. But the thing with Gary is, does anybody know who he is.

Rafe is one of my favorites. Love this guy. Loved him when he walked in the room. Great guy, funny, got a lot of levels to him. From talking to him you can tell that he's a pretty good judge of character. He can sense out who somebody is like, who might be somebody wise to hook up with.

Jim is a former fire captain. When you've been in a position of power it can work a couple of ways. In Jim's case I think it works in a way that power corrupts.

Morgan is somebody who my impression of was...hmm, I don't know, a magician's assistant, a waitress or whatever she was, for the Survivor game, I'm not sure she's going to have it. The more I'm around Morgan the more I'm starting to think, this girl has alot more than I saw at first glance.

Lydia, the fishmonger. I'm not going to lie. I don't think Lydia is going to last long. I think it's because she's not built for this game. This is so tough out here. It's sooo hot. The challenges are so physical. She's in jeans. For crying out loud.

Jamie Newton, his fate rests with himself and his attitude. Jamie can be a lippy, cocky pain the ass. Or he can be a strong competitor and funny and respectful. Time will tell which Jamie comes out.

-Really likes Judd, Brianna and Rafe
-Thinks Danni and Margaret will do well
-Is sure Lydia won't make it.

what can you say about Jeff's assesment on Gary??
There's a ''But the thing with Gary is, does anybody know who he is" on it!!
maybe Gary will not tell the others that he is an ex-NFL??
like Willard of Palau pretending to be a postman??

and here's another one!! From Jim's interview he said
"I may not even divulge that I am a firefighter - a retired firefighter. It could come back to bite me. So I may, you know...I've got some other sidelines that I can talk intelligently about. I was a hazardous materials specialist and an emergency medical tech, so I can talk about those things, if that's who I need to be. You know, if I need to assume another persona. That's what I'll have to do. "

That talk about assuming other "persona" reminds me of Willard pretending to be a postman rather than a lawyer. It didn't matter much because he still got booted early.

I think everybody caught on to Willard's little charade when he failed to go "postal" when he was booted. Cheesy

Gary is Gary Hoggeboom, ex Pro Football player.
This will be interesting to hear if Gary tells the other tribemates who he is!
Like an Attoryney or Judge, they may think
he has a lot of money stashed away and
doesn't need to win!
HA! He was never a Super Bowl Quarterback, and that's where the money and big commercials
make them millions!
I don't remember if he was on the
Dallas Cowboy Squad as a back-up when
they won the Superbowl Championship.

You never know. In Thailand everyone found out Brian was rich, a nice car was in his garage. But he still won.

yeah, he won!! that's because the others didnt try getting rid of him as soon as possible.... Grin

and i believe winners win simply because they deserve it not because they need money or whatever... Cool

anyway back to the topic, why does JIm have to pretend to be someone else?? If he doesnt tell the others that he was a firefighter chief, they might think he's weak... I mean, he's the oldest there!! there's a huge huge target on his back...
