I rarely, barely, hardly, marginally watch "American Idol."
But when I do catch it, I usually just check for Big Mike and Crystal Bowersox. (sp?) You know Deva has things I dislike about each of them, but I absolutely think they're the most talented and appealing contestants this year. ANYWAYS, the point is yesterday I saw Mike saying he made a goal for himself the year before this to be in the top 3, and he was proud of himself for meeting his "high" goal.
The funny thing is, Ellen was genuinely disappointed that his goal was so low. "Your goal should be to win, not to be in the top three," she said.
"Well, yea, that's the next goal" - he tried to clean it up. Ells shut that down again, like I don't get why anyone's goal wouldn't be to win.
And well, maybe this is ironic, but today he was voted off the show. He set his goal to be in the top 3, he got there...and now he's gone. It shocked me, because I'd have loved to see him win, but it's certainly a reminder that you can go as far as you dream you can - so don't sell yourself short.

Idk, if you get to the top three, you get a record deal that you control, not so much if you win outright. I think brother was smart.
Lol! That's a GREAT point. You're right; he'll probably be just fine, if not better than the actual winner.
