Hi everyone!  Back on this forum.  I'm definitely Team Josh.  Is it true that he's half Jewish?

Glad to have another team Josh member. I think it was said that he was 1/2 jewish.

^ A woman who works for a Dallas radio station, I forget the name of it, but it's a really well known one and if I remember correctly it's the same one Kidd Kraddick used to be on before he passed away, was on live while looking at the bios and pictures of the men and she remembered Marcus as a guy she hooked up with in a bar. She was pissed because she eventually found out he had a girlfriend at the time she hooked up with him. Considering she said it on live radio, I highly doubt she would lie about something like that because that could easily be used as defamation of character. RS was also in studio that day too and he's made it seem like on his blogs that Marcus has gotten around. He's only 25, so I understand he plays the field, but cheating isn't a good thing - especially considering he and Andi talked about it last night on the episode.

I just find it funny that people are saying Josh has anger issues and a bad temperament when we only see little scenes of him being "fired up" about losing a basketball game and another guy getting a girls number during filming, but yet they think Marcus deserves someone better than Andi because he seems like a calm guy, but yet he cheated on his girlfriend.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but in my opinion, I just think it's crazy.    

Thanks for the explanation, Ash. I didn't see anything in Josh's screentime to date that makes me take pause with him away from the show setting. Marcus was great with Andi on their date, talking her off the ledge and helping her to overcome her fears. That is no more indicative to me that he is always rationally calm and even-keeled than Josh saying he's a grown azz man and his facial expressions/competive reactions being indicative that he is quick to anger and volatile. I like them both. I find that I like things about all of her remaining guys though I would have swapped keeping Tasos and sending Andrew home if I had my druthers.

One of the things I like so far about Marcus is he is soft-spoken and at least IRL has chosen not to address the above.(that I am aware)
A couple things stand out to me about the bolded.
a) really??--this woman who is so worried about Marcus's morality chose to air her dirty laundry on a live radio show and discuss hooking up with a random guy for a one nighter?? Really? Pot meet kettle. Pot meet poor taste, at least kettle isn't whistling. Why should this radio personality be pissed? You reap what you sow. She had a one night stand and she is judging the guy?? 
b) Pot does not know the details and reality of the status of what she thinks was a gf. No details have emerged. Thankfully. Shows some respect on the part of kettle by not addressing such and kettle's ex. 
c) As far as what RS' opinion is--he is a 37(or did he just turn 38) who is jealous of anyone who has any dating relationship. The closest RS comes to dating is feeding Maddy her meals daily. Maybe they share a bed, but not going there.

As far as Josh's real temperment. Not going there. I have no idea.

Silliness is totally welcome here    but it is kind of silly that people are saying Josh has a temper because he was upset that he lost a basketball game and he did say at some point too that he was upset because he wanted to spend time with Andi and that's why he was there. Drama has to be created every season. Production probably pushed JJ to confront Andrew and I'm sure they told him to bring some of the other guys into it too.

To say someone has a bad temper or anger issues over this is a bit much. We don't know him.

And then for people to say Marcus seems like a great, calm guy? Well apparently he's a great, calm guy that likes to cheat on his girlfriends.

Whoa!  Cheating?  Is it true or just speculation?
An inquired mind wants to know.

He might have been dating someone else but she was not his girlfriend. And the gal on that radio station had only gone out with him that one time and if she "hooked-up" with him on a 1st date that is her problem. A lot of guys that age date more than one girl and I think she found out he was dating someone else at the same time and she just speculated it was his girlfriend. So to say that he cheats on his girlfriends is a bit much as well and that is how rumors get started.

Andi even questioned the competition, was it about himself or her. I think she is observing him right now, not falling head over heels in love. Also trying to see if Marcus is real.

There is no doubt that Josh is an alpha male, he is a guys guy and a girls guy. JJ knew to go to Josh as if Josh garners respect among the all of them.  Nothing wrong with a man who takes charge. If what Josh has done some consider a temper then I must have a different definition of what having a temper is.  

He does have a temper, but as long as he can keep it in check I don't have a problem with it. I think he is currently one of the leaders of the pack. My HO.

^ SLA44, do you know Marcus? You say who he was dating wasn't his girlfriend. How would you know if the girl wasn't his actual girlfriend?

I'm 23, only two years younger than Marcus, and I would be pissed if my boyfriend, who I dated for about a month or so before we became official, hooked up with someone else during this period. Regardless - he was dating someone else, and in my world, dating could be a couple of things considering I say all the time "I'm going on a date with my boyfriend" so it could have been his girlfriend. We don't know since we don't personally know him. REGARDLESS, in my opinion, he was dating and hooking up with someone else and then found a random girl in the bar and hooked up with her. Just my opinion, not my kind of guy and I have the right to post it. I figured I'd post it considering we don't know Josh and everyone is assuming he has some sort of anger issues, but yet Marcus likes to get around.

I did say Jenna from the radio station hooked up with him once - I didn't say it was just Marcus' fault, but at the end of the day, they both willingly did it. He was seeing someone else whether just dating or it was his girlfriend and he found a random girl in the bar and got with her.

Exactly. All I'm trying to say is people are taking it a bit far saying Josh has temperament issues because of a few minutes shown here and there and we don't even know him. I'm certainly not saying Marcus is a bad guy or anything, but it's just funny and interesting how people kind of have a one zone thought process in regards to Josh right now when it's clear some of the other guys aren't perfect either.

That statement left me      Wasn't the competition to get to spend more time with her.

Oh yikes.  Where does this come from??

We don't have this information from any credible source and I wouldn't believe everything you read.....JMO.

Yes but I think the point is that she has been questioning this and related aspects from day one.
