He's actually not playing basketball now, so I'm not sure why they keep putting that on his name. He played college bball at Appalachian State and was playing pro ball overseas. I guess "pro basketball player" just sounds better to them.

Jeremy: is hideous to me. I know he's got a body but I find his face HIDEOUS and his personality dull. I thought the Sinatra date was blah.

Jason: his star is rising. I can see him as the final guy. He's open and honest without being lame like Jeremy.

Twilley: I think even he knew that getting this far was a joke for him... I really don't understand why he stayed and Brian went home last week.

Graham: the douche meter is rising. This week he seemed completely and totally fake to me.

Sean: I had mixed feelings on him this week. I really hated the life background story where we found about his Hummer, his ugly McMansion home, his ridiculous clothes closet, his facial products, his in-home tanning area and sauna, and what else am I forgetting...?? his general lameass conspicuous consumption. At the same time, I thought he was really sweet and cute on his date - if at times he did seem to be moving too fast. Maybe that's what turned Deanna off.

I am also calling nonsense on skipping the cocktail party because she already made up her mind. Why didn't we just skip this entire week, because she'd probably had her mind made up since the LAST rose ceremony. How much could a cocktail party really lead someone on?

Ready for the crazy drama of next week!



They should all dump her and leave her at the altar again.

You're talking about a show that called that other guy a Prince...

breathesgelatin 06-28-2008 02:05 AM

I found something interesting. Some pictures have emerged of the guys (along with some of the girls from Matt's Bachelor: London Calling season) that were taken of them all hanging out during the Men Tell All Episode weekend in LA.

DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW IF YOU ARE NOT SPOILED FOR THE NEXT CUT. THE PERSON WHO DOES NOT MAKE THE FINAL TWO IS PICTURED IN SOME OF THEM.

Cool images, including Football Coach Brian in a Chi Omega shirt

Richard & Noelle from last season = my new OTP. Deanna, Richard is too good for you.

Chelsea, you look a mess.

Graham, you are fully the player I thought you were.

ETA: Link to tell-all interview with Graham from Charlotte Observer

SthrnZeta 06-29-2008 01:40 AM

^^ Wow, I so did not expect that... I couldn't help but click!!! Still Team Jason!!! (still only because Richard is gone - man he looked hot in some of those pics!)

Agreed, Richard looks awesome in those pictures. Deanna is an idiot!

nittanyalum 06-29-2008 01:21 PM

I finally caught up on episodes last night, I've missed the last 2 or 3 weeks. Thank baby jebus Graham is gone, I NEVER knew what she saw in him. "Smokin' hot?" Ugh, not in a million years. And when they recapped their journey together, it was so sad to see that she was constantly chasing him, leaning in to him for a kiss, etc. If he thought he was just "playing it cool", he took it too far, he was being a d*ck. After the 3 great dates she had with the other guys, I was surprised she said "I'm sending away the only one I was falling in love with" when she walked Graham out. OUCH for the other 3. Graham doesn't deserve that much effort.

I love love love Jason, but after watching the last few episodes, I'm now suddenly a big fan of Jeremy too. I couldn't stand him the first or second shows, but he's really grown on me. The stuff about his parents really got to me, he's grown up, settled, and oh good lord does he have a good body. That's just gravy, of course, not necessary for a great relationship, but it doesn't hurt. Jesse has grown on me a little too (his hair looks better on him when he's in his element on the slopes -- he looked better overall in his element there), but they are clearly stuck in the "friend zone". I was actually surprised she kept him over Sean, I thought he'd snuck up in the pack too.

I'm torn whether I want her to end up with Jason or Jeremy.

I agree. Graham was just cold and reminded me a lot about my ex.

She had 3 really great guys left (Jeremy and Jason are my 2 top favorites though).

Jeremy is from Dallas, so if she doesn't want him, she can send him back my way! :o:p

And I wonder if that won't be his ace in the hole, she came into this wanting a "southern gentleman", right? As much as she may adore Jason, I'm not sure I see her in Seattle.

Plus, how great would Jason be on his own Bachelor show?!??! :) (if he could leave his son for that long again)

SATX*APhi 06-30-2008 03:07 PM

I don't believe Jeremy is being genuine at all. I made my guy watch with me last week and he said that Jeremy was being fake.

Jesse's morals and such are super cute but he still seems like a big kid.

I like Jason.....a lot. There's just something about him. He's my pick. :)

SthrnZeta 06-30-2008 03:16 PM

Jason is my pick to win. HOWEVER, I don't see it lasting. Not just because that's the pattern, but he ultimately is not DeAnna's type - Graham unfortunately is. She's a nice girl, but like so many of us, chase the bad guys.

Heck, let him bring Ty along. Not that the boy needs 25 "Aunts" but Jason's going to have to think about the real world once 6 weeks end and he goes back to real life. I'm sure there's plenty of room in the mansion for a little boy, but they would need to end the spend overs.

Actually, I don't think ABC would sink that low to exploit a little boy. But he sure is cute!

Agreed, Jason's been my favorite the past few weeks, but I think his location would be a big negative for her. I don't think she's willing to be that far from her family.

texas*princess 06-30-2008 09:56 PM

i'm going to be sad if she doesn't pick jason!

i get the feeling she is going to go with jesse though.

nittanyalum 06-30-2008 11:28 PM

:eek: I missed the first hour show, popped in on the "Men Tell All" show. I will have to catch up on ABC.com again tomorrow, until I see what went down I am ASTOUNDED she chose Jesse over Jeremy! He still looked so sad tonight, poor guy. And I think she's been pretty cute and sweet on the episodes so far, but man, she was kind of a wench tonight. LOL at Graham for continuing to point out her harsh comments, he gained a couple points in my book tonight. Maybe Jeremy will get his own show.

PeppyGPhiB 06-30-2008 11:34 PM

I'm happy with Jason or Jesse. There is just something about Jeremy that doesn't seem right.

And I know DeAnna has said she doesn't want to move away from her family, but there comes a time in one's life when it's necessary to make sacrifices and compromises for what could be one's NEW family. Jason and Jesse both live far away from Georgia, but I would hope DeAnna would feel either was worth moving for.

On your first point re: Jeremy, I kind of agree. There's been speculation on Television Without Pity that he may be on antidepressant meds that are sort of mellowing him out/making him a bit dull. Since his mother died so recently and he obviously had a really hard time with it. Actually, my opinion of Jeremy really improved tonight. I felt mucho bad for him.

As far as the living far apart, she was definitely plugging away about that tonight. She seems more concerned about it with Jesse though - I think she's scared of the cold/snow.

Next week looks ridiculous with the 2 on 1 hometown date. And then BOTH of the guys proposing. O.M.G.

Agreed also that Deanna was a crazy woman tonight. I didn't like her that much on Brad's season (as Ryan rightly pointed out, she was super-confrontational on that season (although Ryan is a jerk, he's correct about that)), and I think her bad qualities/dramaqueening were really exposed this season. The Graham/Deanna stuff tonight was hilarious. He clearly was never that into her. I wanted him to just come out and say that. What would be so wrong with that?

srmom 07-01-2008 10:11 AM

I agree that Jeremy seemed more "normal" tonight. I felt really bad for him and hope he doesn't let this make matters (mental health) worse. Probably not a good idea to go on a nationally televised dating show right after your mom died, when you are still majorly depressed.

I had a problem (in the yuck way) about her making out with all 3 guys, in 3 days. I know that's the way the show is structured, but I mean seriously, if you really were feeling something for any of them (I don't buy that she feels IN LOVE with all 3 of them), then how can she do that? YUCK!

She did seem kind of crazed at the tells all show. Hee! I loved watching her get pissed. I think she thought that all of her, "I've been there. My heart was breaking." stuff would get her a free pass from being judged. Nope, Sorry;)

LPIDelta 07-01-2008 04:58 PM

If she doesn't pick Jason, she is going to come off at the biggest B* for leading a single father on. I am sorry, but you know that's what people will think. I think it may be him because he has "been there for her" when he was in the house alone with her, but I also see that she is into Jesse. I think that may be more that she is surprised by him, however, rather than in love with him maybe?

SthrnZeta 07-01-2008 05:18 PM

Anyone got some spoilers? I hear she's with Jason and pregnant and I wanna see if it's true!

I've got an interesting spoiler, not about the final decisions Deanna makes, but about a surprise appearance in the next week's ep:

http://www.abcmedianet.com/web/progc...x?id=070108_05

I guess it's not a total spoiler - the ABC promo doesn't reveal the conclusion/who she picks, but it does have some other info that some might consider spoilerish so I'll hold off from saying anything more.

AGDee 07-01-2008 10:50 PM

Was anybody else a little concerned that Jesse didn't really know what he wanted to do after his snowboarding career was over? He had an idea that he might want to be sports agent, but I'm not sure she would be impressed with his comments that once he found the right woman he would be happy and it wouldn't matter how much money they had or what he would be doing? Is it just me or does that seem kind of immature? Jason has a much more stable career and seems more ready to settle down.

I agree that he had a poor answer there. I'm wondering how much money he's saved up from snowboarding...

Don't I remember him saying at one point this season he would love to be a stay-at-home dad? I think he'd be good at that. Not sure it's Deanna's style to be the breadwinner however.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw it - ooh, that doesn't sound good and her smile looks kinda fake there... eek.

Yes, he did say that. And considering I don't think DeAnna has a bachelor's degree (if I recall correctly), I'm guessing her income potential is a little limited. It looks like Jesse does well financially, though...his pad in Breckenridge couldn't have been cheap, and he did start a nonprofit, too.

LucyKKG 07-02-2008 03:58 AM

Ahhhh I can't believe she didn't pick Jeremy this week! She said that she felt more connected with him because of losing a parent, but I think she just emphasized that in her head to make an easier decision. Lame lame lame. I really hope she picks Jason!

That is so true. I've been a big fan of Jason and Ty (he's so precious), and if she doesn't pick them, my idea of her will go way down (it's already kind of there... I really don't like the way she comes off as everything being about her. My husband says she comes off as spoiled... I'd agree with that assessment.)

OMG, that would be crazy! She did look a little different on the tell-all. I don't know if it was lighter hair, or slight weight gain (her arms looked a little bigger)... it could be pregnancy! Where did you hear that? I'm gonna have to do some internet sleuthing now.

nittanyalum 07-02-2008 09:53 AM

Ok, after catching up on the last show last night with the 3 overnight dates, Jason has to win. Part of me wonders if Jeremy's date was 3rd instead of Jesse, if he would have gotten a rose. But regardless, she needs to be taken care of emotionally and financially, and only Jason offers both fully; Jeremy needs as much emotional support (if not more) than she does and if Jesse blows a knee, he's teaching lessons on the bunny hill or collecting carts at Wal-Mart and she's temping somewhere to make ends meet. I don't see that in her grand life plan. Jason's the man. And I agree her face looked a little "fuller" on the men tell all show -- if she is pregnant, she can blame her being a b*tch that night on her hormones...

Interesting spoiler. Since all this was filmed before the "deanna tells all" last episode, I wonder which of the bachelors confronted her. I didn't get a sense of that with them or with her.

Which do you think it was?

I already know from screencaps that have popped up online, so I don't think it's fair for me to guess. :)

And re: Deanna not having a degree, I believe that's correct. Although she has an associate's degree I believe. I believe she works in real estate? At least I think that's her official tagline. I think you can make pretty good money off that without a degree. I think it's more a question of would Deanna WANT to be the breadwinner.

Thinking about it again, she's also discussed being a bartender (I think that was in the initial episode with Graham, and maybe also last season with Brad), so who knows what she really does. Or maybe she does both.

SthrnZeta 07-02-2008 04:22 PM

I think she said she had bartended but her tagline has been real estate. And in this market, I wouldn't be surprised if she does both!

As for who confronts her, my guess is Jeremy but Twilley did wait outside for her before to confront her so who knows...

I was thinking... the last we saw Jeremy on the show, he had the limo stop and he was pacing back and forth. I wonder if the next episode starts at that point with him going back to confront her.

My thoughts exactly. My husband was like, "He's a stalker, man!" And then compared him to some naked serial killer in a movie (he later figured out that he and Robert (or Texas Brian W., I can't remember which) were on the same wavelength and were talking about the same character/movie with American Psycho.

One of my favorite movies.

Spoiler Alert! From this morning...

Deanna on Good Morning America

KDAngel 07-07-2008 01:57 PM

I'm so impatient! I want to know who she picks! I HOPE it's Jason! Jesse's nice and all, but I just don't like him as much.

AGDee 07-07-2008 02:07 PM

OMG!!! I forgot that was on tonight! I'm so glad you posted :) Count me in on Team Jason (I hate Jesse's hair)

SthrnZeta 07-07-2008 02:27 PM

I so knew who it was that comes back tonight - that was kinda obvious. And how sneaky of her not to wear the ring! Darn her!
