*NO SPOILERS* The Bachelorette 10 - Episode Discussion

Anyway, apparently all the guys were given the same rosebud jerseys. So in order to make two teams, one team had to turn their shirts inside out. They all had Andi sign their shirts. If this is accurate, kind of poor planning on the producers part.

I tried to stay spoiler free this time around and lasted up until the final week before the season started. But then I saw so much activity on the screen caps thread (from View New Posts) that my curiosity got the best of me. I will say, though, that it helped me go into the season without being attached to anyone guy...or knowing really anything about the guys because it was too much info to catch up on. I think that's one reason I've stayed pretty neutral. Most of her guys would be a great pick for her. I'm enjoying the conversations for the most part because Andi (much like Jillian) knows how to ask questions.

She seems to have both the mental and physical (her words, not mine) connection with Nick.   In the very beginning, he seemed skeptical but that seems to have turned around now.  He's def not my type but she's very obviously into him.

That said, her chemistry with both Josh & Marcus is off the charts.  At this point, though, she's much more skeptical of Josh and whether he is there for her or to 'win' (words she spoke to her basketball team while watching the men play).  This, obviously, is his conflict to overcome.  Is he, as he says, really more than just a dumb jock (my words) or will he be the guy Andi seems to have dated in the past, which will keep her away.  

Now Marcus...he could be the guy who is falling too hard too fast.  But the question is - does she mind or does she like it?  My impression so far is that she loves his note(s) (I'm guessing he's her secret admirer) and that he told her he was falling in love with her.  We'll have to wait and see if she pulls back or keeps him close.  

So at this point, IMO, Nick = perfect on paper but does she completely feel 'it' with him; Marcus = has great chemistry with Andi and has fallen hard and fast.  Does she like and appreciate this or is it a turn off; and Josh = also has great chemistry with Andi and says he has likes her a lot and wants to see her and kiss her everyday but do we (or more importantly Andi) believe him??

As for the other guys - Dylan reminds me of a Baldwin and my heart broke to hear he lost two siblings to drug use.  JJ is quirky and fun and I absolutely adore him.  I think Pantsapreneur is so much cooler than insurance rep or account rep or all the other boring, fake job descriptions TPTB usually come up with.  Marquel - hot, funny, and he loves cookies - what's not to love!!  Patrick - def a hottie but we know nothing about him; Cody is the FF (funny friend) guy; Brian is the cool teacher who will have the women lined up; Chris is the cute, down-home, guy (great for some but boring to me); and Andrew - blech - a little too high of an opinion of himself.  I really liked Tasos and, Eric, boy, what a life he lived while he was here.  I'm just sorry with how he left.  I can see Andi beating herself up about that...
