Interview with Robbie just moments after he was voted out! He talks about why he was blindsided tonight and his downfall in the game. Lots of positive energy and actually a very classy interview in my opinion, love Robbie!

I think I probably speak for a lot of people in saying that we were tough on Robbie in here this season. Mostly over the comments about MVP... which at the end of the day, isn't necessarily about people solely voting about who is strategically playing the best. It can be a popularity contest at times, or people voting for the friends they are supporting.
However, this interview definitely confirms our point that we didn't really question Robbie's class. He is an emotional player and I think he earned himself the position of that "player you love to hate." Everything crumbled quickly for him in the past couple rounds, but I think he played a great game and I'm glad to hear he had no regrets.
Great game Robbie and I think you definitely got the redemption Kirin mentioned!

I think that he has a skewed view on what went down in the game. How can he not though? He lived int his bubble where him and his groupies worked extremely hard and maintaining power. They however made little effort to ever really conceal their alliance and their loyalty and in the end they showed their willingness to back stab so very quickly. Dodds and Dylan anyway? They did some major key things that blew up in their face and the fact Eric and the others bailed on them wasn't remotely dumb and was one of the better moves. There's 3 outsiders, 3 Chikara OG's minus Eric, the other 4 can really put themselves in a majority.
Didn't appreciate him talking shit about Sassy, maybe keep your bitterness to the game and dish it when you know things as a fact. Sassy is a goddess, sorryboutit.
He's not half bad though, played a strong game, it just could have been better.
Would have loved to see him last a bit longer to be honest.
But still a Felicia.

This is actually like the least classy interview ever if you ask me Kirin. To hold something like that against Sassy for most of the game as a form of blackmail is just disgusting to me, and THEN throwing it out twice in this interview is even more disgusting and unnecessary. Like you lost Robbie. Get over it. Stop trying to get revenge. Stop trying to make it personal. I've been very close friends with Sassy for about 3 years, and I.
don't.
care.if I know what she looks like, because she's still the same sweet and caring girl to me. It shouldn't be told like this, it should be told by SASSY when she is ready and comfortable to share it. I'm just so furious right now over this and I'm gonna leave before I get vulgar, for real.

I guess when I said "classy" I more so just meant that he's not iB1tter which I appreciated.

Zack said it just right. If sassy isn't ready to share more of her personal life its fine. She's a great person and whenever she's ready she'll post more. Sandy and Sassy go way back so obviously he trusts her. We've all spoken to her via Skype calls so we know the type of person she is. Love her

Sorry if I offended anyone by saying it was classy, I was just pleasantly surprised that he accepted his elimination so well. I don't necessarily agree with his all comments on Sassy but I thought he did a good job of keeping a positive attitude about being voted out, and I thought his comments about Sami at the end were really nice.

You're fine, someone else is just kind of a joke. lol

As much as I wanted to like Robbie this season, I just couldn't. Maybe I am biased because I came across a Survivor game in which he was shit talking the iS series almost in a Sam Burkett-esque fashion. He also comes across as insecure, which leads him to always try to hit people with personal insults when things don't go his way. I can't ever root for people like that.
That being said, this season would not have been the same without him. I am curious to see how he approaches his final jury speech. Will he take the high road, or will he be a little bitch?
About Sassy: if she isn't the beautiful woman in the cast avi and thumbnails, that doesn't mean she isn't a real person. She is still a beautiful woman on the inside and shouldn't that matter? She has always been great towards me whenever we have chatted and that is what I look for in a friend. She has so many fans and friends in here because of how great of a person she is.

To be fair to Robbie he came across a changed man, a better man and a more headstrong individual who could handle the pressures he would soon face.
Uuuunfortunately as Sandy said a leopard can't change its spots and it's really evident that he hasn't been able to get over those insecurities - if anything they have been exacerbated by the game and any progress has been thrown away. He wasn't somebody you'd want to win, he's somebody you need closure on and complete his arc in the series. Idk but there's a sour taste in my mouth overall about his third outing. He's a good guy but he is not cut out for this.
Does anybody else notice a trend of all the Arabian Favorites this season being incredibly disappointing? Alex would have been a far superior choice for an original Favorite.

LOVE Robbie of course, even if im one of his few supporters here (I'm obviously biased)
But anyways, he really has come a LONG way from being the super emotional person he used to be in these games (obviously he's still somewhat emotional but that's just part of his personality)
I do think he made one of the biggest blunders in playing a game by revealing his main alliance way too early, plus some failed moves that didnt really pay off.
As for his comments towards Sassy...*sigh* I love them both and wish they could get along but oh well...I'm not really going to voice my opinion on that all too much. #RIPARABIA
