I'm from nearby Canonsburg, Pa., and whether he was a rat or not, what's more important is that his family is more important than a silly reality show. Ronnie, you can email me at TheFightingFitzpatricks@gmail.com and we can chat sometimes. You may have performed badly on BB11, but I'm looking for a friend who I can talk to on the internet.

Shouldn't this headline read local Reality show contestant instead of star? He didn't even make it to the jury house.

Ronnie did Not play the game well, if he did then he would still be there. He played to hard to fast

Oh Camron.. its not just editing. It was his actions... actually im glad BB edited some of his actions. Awful, maybe not but he is not a positive person. And i didn't watch to see him, but i did see him go DOWN! Its unfortunate that his dreams were washed away in a matter of four weeks after 6 years of trying to get on the show.

He did great on the show... You people that think he is truely such an awful person you're misinformed. It's called editing - and it makes for great TV. Obviously you watched so he did his job as a celebreality star. Get over yourselves!!!!! Turn off the cable if all you can do is complain and try to bring someone else down to your level.

Ronnie behaved as if his family tree had no limbs. We don't need that kind of representation for our beautiful state.

im suprised PHS did'nt supply him with a complete big red outfit to wear on the show they're always looking for an opportunity to get some press. oops i guess that one slipped threw. I know wtap can do a welcome home story or maybe they can figure a way relate him to something that happened elsewhere in the world. hope he does'nt act in real life the way he acted in the game

Come one guys this is a game! It's not real. Ronnie played the game well. the stuff on the web is designed by promo people to build interest in the Game. Reality TV is not reality! It is television... there are sets of guidelines and variuos requirements that these folks must meet for every episode. In real life Ronnie is gracious, kind, loving person who only exhibits respect for all people. In real life he doesn't lie! I wonder how the community would have benefitted if he had won. I suspect that people would be singing a different tune. Let's try to keep the game in perspective!

I agree with the last comment, It's shame a for him to be part of this great State..Yes it was a game but there was no need for the excessive lying, stalking, and disrespectful behavior towards women...honestly, the other videos on the web where he discusses explicit sexual topics is disgusting and I wouldn't trust my daughter around him...Even though I would have loved for someone from WV to win he deserved to go home.

RT makes us in WV look bad. Not a good person to represent our state. I'm glad he's not my son.

Go Ronnie! My husband and I are huge Big Brother Fans! We even get the live internet feeds every year. Hope he does well!

Good Luck. Can't wait to watch you on the show. Have fun...It's nice to see someone from the area make it on the show.

Go Ronnie...use your brain and physical abilities and bring home the BACON! We'll be watching every show. Go get them.
