Luke Pell - Bachelorette 12 - BWG - Discussion - #3

[Luke:] "I'm one of the most genuine and honest people,"

http://www.buddytv.com/articles/the-bachelor/former-bachelorette-contestant-63769.aspx

IMO, if someone has to tell people they are genuine then I can guarantee that they are not genuine.

He could be genuine. A genuine idiot.

Should I tell him or not? ... that he was never even considered for TB... really considered - IMO - I didn't want to "open my mouth" on the matter before, but some recent revelations regarding DWTS got me confident, so as I wrote in Nick's thread ... I actually think Nick was considered for the bachelor before Jojo's season even started.
Throughout her season I couldn't see 1 viable option for the next lead, from the F4 maybe only the "silent" Chase would have cut it, but not much of material there either, especially not after Ben's season (young bachelor) ... it was Nick's all along ... only that TPTB needed "a story" to "explain" how he could become one ... so BIP was their resort. It wasn't so much about the "redemption" storyline, as much as putting Nick back on the map (from where they parked him after Kaitlyn's season in stand-by ... and denied DWTS opportunity, which seemed at the time the reason for Nick's move) -all IMO.

And about Luke ... one thing I never could wrap my head around is what women find so attractive about him (I guess they find the physical appeal that I'm blind to) ... but what was irritating me during Jojo's season was his "spiel" he resorted to every time he talked to her (at CPs etc.)... while she seemed fairly interested in him (at least she approached him), he kept reciting his speech, sometimes in no connection to what she was telling him that I was puzzled if he even listened to her or he just needed to get the "right lines" out. Never saw him genuine. But I guess people liked him, still do ... and why am I surprised?

I have been sticking up for Luke and was afraid to pop in here to see what everyone is saying. Okay, okay...I get it.

Throwing in the towel with that last article. Dude, don't

That said...I might forget my current annoyance with him come BIP time if I like his match up.

I kind of suspect if he goes on BIP, that bus that ran over Josh last season, might be heading his way.

TPTB need another spin off...Bachelor Bootcamp. Have some of these yahoos like Josh, Luke, Chase, Alex, Robby work out their issues like grown azz men. Kind of like Survivor Fleiss style.

I'd watch that. Give them lessons/tasks on how to check your ego at the door, how to treat women, how to behave on SM, how to live without a mirror for a day, how to cut the apron strings etc. Prime TV!

Luke ~ if you are reading this, and chances are good that you are, I mean come on, won't you read anything online with your name attached to it??   Listen, dude, you are a loser, a L-O-S-E-R.    Time for you to step back, reflect, take a MAJOR reality check, maybe eat a piece of some humble pie, and go crawl back under the rock you came from.   Nobody cares!!

OMG, toooooo funny!!! Kasha, Mindless, you are the BEST!

Looks like JoJo's "kinda sister in law" had a thing with Mr. Luke Pell over the summer. She makes it seem like he lead her on or something. What a NOT surprise!! IMO.

He lost this because of his overconfidence
