Who's more interesting on Survivor, Ozzy, or his fake immunity idol?

It's an interesting question. Yes, Ozzy is stunning and adventurous and dominant at challenges, but is he a guy you want to watch each week?

The guy is incredible. He might be the greatest competitor from a challenge standpoint in Survivor history. Well, except for Scout from Survivor: Vanuatu! Wow she was terrible. I digress. Ozzy setting up the coconuts at the end of the tank for his team could be viewed as brilliant or just plain stupidity by the other tribe for not thinking the same thing. Either way, he single handedly won that challenge for them. On his original season the guy was a force, getting to the final 2 by winning immunity after immunity challenge. Just like Scout. Or not...

After volunteering to go to Exile Island, the guy finds the hidden idol, and in Yau Man style fashion, he creates a fake idol in its place. Someone fill find it, use it, and have Jeff Probster laugh at them at toss it in the fire with disgust. Ozzy rather coolly gets the job done. Although it wasn't that hard. It seems Kathy was all about checking out his posterior and not what he was getting up to...

The Problem with Ozzy, however, is as simple as he is. He's boring. Name one sentence the guy has ever muttered in 1+ seasons of Survivor. You can't. He deserves to be an "all-star" for sure, but he's dull. I'm calling out Ozzy. Do something! Freak out on someone, trash someone in your confessionals, say something funny, just do something!

His fake immunity idol, in which he called Eeyore (ooooo, there IS something I remember him saying after all!) has more personality than this guy...
