And how exactly would you verify the number of votes Jacob got? You can't 
count them yourself, you have to take the word of those who counted them, 
who may not be from an indepent accounting firm. We don't even know for
sure 
that Amanda's illness was real since she was handled by a BB medic. For
all 
we know, Amanda might have been a shill to drum up a little drama and that

fainting was all staged. Hell, it didn't even look real. A case could be 
made that all those answers were made up on the fly but at a certain point

common sense has to kick in. Judging by the posts in here, Sharon is a lot

more popular than Ryan. Not only do people love the underdog, but viewers 
are more satisfied when their favorite wins so what's the incentive for BB

to fix the game in Ryan's favor? Why not fix it in Adam's favor? Ryan is 
boring and from a tv executive's perspective he was probably the least 
appealing choice to win this HOH.
