Me too. I think Lenny's awesome and will go far. He's a no bull-isht kind of guy with street smarts.

I also think blonde Allie (one of the first PMs) will go far.

That's it so far for my "predictions" as to who will be the next apprentice.

Me too!

I actually liked her. I mean she wasn't the coolest thing ever, but it's the 1st time I've ever heard her even speak before and she was much more articulate than I had expected and she was very polite about things. I liked her, and kinda hope to see more of her in the future.

I don't know. Compared to Alexis Stewart, Ivanka seemed to be brimful of personality.

She's also the one who woke the team up and tried to get them moving. She and Allie are among the most impressive so far.

I also love Lenny (the Russian), he's too funny.

I don't see him lasting too long. His attitude will hurt him in the long run -- he's not much a team player, and his "not for long" comment in front of Trump last week was not a good move. He was right about Lee's leadership (or lack thereof), but he didn't handle it well, I don't think.

I just hope that before he goes, someone can get him to say "moose and squirrel" in a sentence. "Natasha," "Fearless Leader" or "Mr. Big" will be acceptable as well.

ROFL!!!!!

There's another Greek...Pepi Diaz, who was fired this week, is a Sigma Phi Epsilon (per his website).

was Lee Greek?

love:
Lenny - you cant *phunk with the Russians!

Lee - gotta root for the youngins' simply b/c people always think they have too little experice...loved Andy!! too bad he didnt make final 2



glad stacey left...what a tool! she made herself look like an idiot. he threatened me with his finger! geez. you're lame. im glad you're gone!

Anyone watch last night (3-13)?

Lenny is a jerk who needs to go. I would have fired him and Theresa last night.

Lenny is the most awesome candidate ever. He freaking rocks. Theresa was a trainwreck and I was so glad to see her go. Andrea was an awesome PM.

You've got to be kidding?! Anybody who takes a "that's not my problem" attitude when working on a team project, while at the same time complaining "I'm the only one doing any work," is worthless as far as I'm concerned. I wouldn't want him working for me.

And anybody who would respond to 2 other teammates' decision to attend to religious obligations with obscenities and threats that they'll be blamed if the team loses the task, and then actually brings that up in the boardroom after already having been told by Trump "that's life, deal with it," is not only a jerk but a really stupid jerk. Seems to me, if nothing else, the fact that Trump noted that George was also at synagogue would have been enough to convince Lenny he needed to get over himself and let it go.

Theresa did deserve to be fired -- both for being a lousy leader and for not bringing Charmaine (and maybe Bryce) into the boardroom. But I have no respect for Lenny.

Lenny & Brent both make for good television. I had said during episode one, that they are going to last longer than anyone thinks.

IMO, Trump realizes that ratings for The Apprentice are going down (Martha's fault? I dont think so!), and he will keep whatever colorful characters he has, for as long as he can.

I think you're right, Annie.

I'm glad Theresa got the boot. By no means do I find the others flawless, but she was in charge of them and did a poor job IMO.

I agree, Theresa did a poor job leading.

Yes, Lenny's attitude sucked but due to editing Theresa could have royally screwed up, not "assigned" the task of finding an electrician to Lenny and then when it came down to it needed someone to blame.

I also thought it was annoying for her to blame Tarek for the disaster of their project. He told her they needed a theme and she blew him off, when did that become his fault? As a non project manager how long should he have pushed? I mean seriously, she sucked as a PM.

Next week, Brent goes off the deep end. LOL.

I'm not kidding. Lenny rocks.

I suspect that Theresa, due to her vast incompetence (maybe the silicone has started migrating to her pea-sized brain -- even I couldn't pay attention to her because her boobs were so distracting), she never told him to do anything about electricity. Then all of a sudden Harpy 1 and Harpy 2 (that Bryce dude -- freak on wheels) are ALL OVER HIM yelling and screaming and damn, I would've reacted the same way he did. They were beyond ridiculous. Lenny was working his butt off the whole time and they jump on him for not doing something he probably wasn't told to do, and they didn't even give him the chance to do it because Harpy 2 was so busy SAVING HIS ASS. Yikes.

And you know what? I think he was right to call those guys out for missing the whole task. I'm not saying it was wrong of them to take time off because of their religious obligations, but the consequence of doing that was screwing their team. Just because it's religion doesn't mean people aren't going to be pissed off and disadvantaged. That's life. I'd bet money that if a Buddhist or Jain vegetarian appeared on the show and declined to participate in a Burger King task, they'd be bitched out by someone -- and rightly so. I also think that there's a difference between someone who is already established (George) taking time off and someone who is participating in this contest/job interview taking time off.

Lenny works hard and is practical. His bluntness is refreshing, but I'm sure some of the fragile flowers in the business world would have a hard time with him -- he won't win, but he's awesome.
