Jordan Rodgers - Bachelorette 12 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #2

Longhornfan wrote:I guess what I hate the most about how people can anonymously go out onto the internet and write whatever they want to about another person, whether it is true or not, is that that "rumor" is going to be out there forever.  And basically it can never be refuted, because there will always be those who will believe it to be 100% true.  RS isn't posting these rumors anonymously, but his information comes from unnamed sources.

With the technology that exists today, pictures can be doctored or digitally altered as well.  SM has drastically changed how we see things now IMO.  I feel like it has changed how we as a society view what is written, in that it is easier to believe the bad written about another person than it is to believe the good.      

I actually feel sorry for Jordan right now, whether he is the F1 or not.  Yes, he signed up for this gig, so he is considered fair game here.  But, I will keep an open mind, drown out all the noise and wait to see him in action before I will automatically accept what RS is saying about him as the gospel truth.  I think that everyone deserves a chance to prove RS wrong, even Jordan.

The thing with RS that always makes me chuckle is that he always says he has proof. In regards to a couple of the women that have supposedly gone to RS in regards to Jordan, RS claims he has pictures and text messages, but it's like and? What does that prove? The girls sent pictures of Jordan hanging out with them? He can't have female friends? Did they send pictures of them in bed with him? I was at a bar in Boston Saturday night and could probably guarantee that many of the men who were in their mid twenties went home with someone. It's not unheard of and its rather common, whether people like it or not. It doesn't make someone horrible.

In regards to wanting to be the next bachelor, did he hear it directly from someone supposedly "close" to Jordan or is he hearing from someone else who's saying he heard it from someone close to Jordan? Also, how does RS really know what Jordan feels? It's just laughable to me. It would be 100% better for Jordan to be the lead, get all of the press that comes with that, and be with someone at the end of that.

I can totally believe that Jordan is a smooth operator and that he has some fun with women, but all of this that RS has said seems to be quite circumstantial. I'll see if more stuff comes out with better "proof" and I'll watch to see how he is with JoJo. JMO.

I understand his logic. If what he has 'heard' is true, which I believe to be true based on my own opinion of him, then if Jordan went in with the mindset to get far enough to be TB and then leave in that coveted 3rd spot, the second JoJo started questioning his intentions, it took the storyline of him leaving on his on off the table. If he left it would confirm that JoJos suspicions were dead on. Not to mention all of the that Chad drama from the previews would come back to bite him. The bad publicity that Brooks got would be nothing compared to what Jordan would face IMO. He already has a reputation and it's not a very good one. He and his PR people had to know that. The saying goes bad publicity is better than no publicity, however good publicity is still better than bad publicity. The only way he could get TB gig would be for JoJo to send him home, which wasn't going to happen since she had already made her eyes set on Mrs. Rodgers IMO, or for them to go thru with an engagement and then it eventually fail, right in time for The Bachelor 2018 to come around.

He is a bitter and jealous middle age man that craves attention.
