January 15, 2003 | - From Daryl Lang's (presumably from Ellicott City, MD) blog: "The other guy from Ellicott City is Ryan Aiken, who is also my age but whom I don't think I know. His bio says he's a 'model and actor' who attended Howard Community College. His luxury item is a baseball and bat. I'm afraid I don't have much hope for this guy. Dave, on the other hand, is the kind of dude who might stick around a while on the show. Or he might get in front of the camera and look like a fool. Who knows?" | - Daryl Lang's blog. | |||
January 14, 2003 | - Local radio station's (MoreMusic 104 FM of Arlington, VA) web site lists Ryan and Matthew as local contestants. Possible source of future press. | - MoreMusic104. | |||

Mendoza's pre-game quotes and impressions: - "Initial impression: Cute and dumb and sensitive about it. Distinctions: Was chunky as a teenager. Had never been out of the country before." - "Who are you? 'I want to be the nice guy, the humble guy everybody likes, but I've never come across that way in my entire life.'" - "On the dangers: 'It's a fine line between sitting at home, watching it on TV, eating pizza and drinking beer and being out here hot and hungry. I'm shell-shocked, and we haven't even started the game yet.'" - "Strategy: 'I could sit here and say I'm going to try to get in with the girls and be cool with the guys, but it's hard. You could have a book, and you can throw it out the window as soon as you get here.'" |

January 11, 2003 | - Possibly the person cited in TV Guide preview: "...according to Probst, the fear factor is too much for at least one player a game, someone who essentially throws in their buff. 'Too often,' he says, 'it's the really cute girl -- Tanya [Thailand], Jessie [Africa] -- that nobody wants to see go home." (Of course, there's no time attribution for this quote, and it may well have been made pre-game). | - TV Guide. |
