Big Brother 14: Big Brother hits reset button on game following America Voting "yes" and coaches accept which saves Frank from eviction. Welcome to a new game.

What do you think? 
As if the first three weeks of Big Brother 14 wasn't entertaining enough which saw one houseguest get expelled, a lot of drama and game play mostly from the coaches, three houseguests evicted (Jodi, Kara and JoJo). Big Brother throw a twist at everyone Thursday night that even I wasn't expecting. All week long, fans were voting on America's Vote on whether or not they would like to see the coaches join the game. But what fans and coaches didn't know was what the impact was going to be.

On Thursday night after America's Vote came back yes, Julie told everyone that the coaches had the option to enter the game in what Big Brother called a game reset. They had each coach enter the diary room and vote, but it only took one coach hitting the reset button to reset the game and after 3 of 4 coaches said yes (Boogie said no), the game was reset, and no eviction (which means Frank and Joe are save and Shane is screwed because he tried to backdoor Frank).

Now the new game was on and all the houseguests (vets and newbies) went into the backyard to play the first endurance HOH competition of the season. Who would be HOH?

Personally, I was okay with the coaches twist because it meant that former players could only win as coaches and a newbie would win BB14. However that proved to be a big problem as the coaches were really the ones playing the game for the houseguests in most cases. So when this newest twist came about, I voted yes 10 times online and hopefully with the four coaches playing the game now, the newbies would have to wake up and play too or be evicted. Of course that means a veteran has a good chance can now win BB14 and not just a newbie.

The only thing is, Julie also said if the coaches said no to coming back, an evicted houseguest would return by someway. I like the coaches coming in, but I also want to see an eviction (Shane's HOH week was worthless without it) and an evicted houseguest return as well. Then there should be plenty of drama, a full house and a few live double eviction weeks. That's what Big Brother is all about...expect the unexpected.

As for the houseguests, we all know what Dan, Janelle, Mike Boogie and Britney can do (Dan and Boogie each won a season), but I want to see a newbie win BB14. Right now, Shane, Frank and Ian are the ones to bet for sure and all for different reasons.
.
Oh yeah, game on.

Note: Had to update one paragraph to clarify that I like the coaches coming in so that it forces players to play, but that I also wanted an eviction too.
