I never thought of it until just now. Why would he delete that. We caught that awhile ago now.

What is your favorite television show and why? Sports Center. I love sports and love talking sports with my friends, so I get most information from that show and sports talk radio. And believe it or not, The Bachelor/Bachelorette series.

Apparently he enjoys basketball to some extent.

Does it really fit him to a tee though? A lot of people think Peter is boring and vanilla.

Yeah, if Rachel did pick Peter, I think he would be going against type for her. He's not really "confident toeing on cocky", considering his hands were shaking when he was around her and he just seems very shy being in front of cameras. He's not outgoing and could possibly be considered boring and a wallflower, which she said were her deal breakers. I could still see it being him at the end, but Peter really isn't the guy she's been saying she wants to the T, IMO.

She was loving her date at bark fest and he was in her final 2, so he can't be too boring in her eyes. JMO

I don't know why though. He doesn't appear boring irl. On the show, yes, but irl, he seems fun and outgoing.

I don't know if that's necessarily true. I mean, Jason and Melissa admitted that they had *nothing* in common and couldn't even hold a conversation after filming. It was all about attraction and projection for Jason. I think that probably happens with a lot of people who make the final four, just because there isn't that much time spent together during filming. He might not be boring, but he does seem like a wallflower in a lot of ways. It's possible that Rachel is a Kaitlyn type, who wants a guy who's more of an introvert so she can have the spotlight, but that's just not exactly what she was describing pre-filming, IMO.

She can come on the show expecting one thing and come out of it with someone totally different. It's really up to the lead to go for their usual safe pick or take a chance with someone different. Statistics show they normally choose the safe choice. It sometimes works & other times it doesn't. jmo

I totally agree with that and I actually love it when a lead goes against type. My only point was that Peter doesn't fit the guy that Rachel described to a T, IMO.

Sometimes social media is hard to decipher, but it looks like this guy is connected to the show. Link is : https://instagram.com/p/BVEBTm9DGlA/

So Dallas Cowboys fans and GB Packers fans tend to not actually like sports together, JMO. And Bryan has a picture on the Falcons and Patriots from the Superbowl on his IG. We also have a picture of Bryan from his younger years in a football uniform.

Kendall is an area near South Miami, so perhaps they grew up near each other or played sports against each other? Not a fact, just a supposition.

@stuckinsc makes a lot of sense. May be, just may be, his company designed Bryan's outfit on the season premiere.
