I didn't like Bryan's "sloppy seconds" comment either but he apologized on IG and he said that he had shots with the guys before the the show. Perhaps he didnt quite thing through what that meant. He was clearly trying to tease Will that he kissed Rachel after him and I don't think he realized in the moment that it also was an insult to Rachel as well.

Frankly, I think Peter from Wisconsin's assumption that Rachel being black meant she was from "the hood" in his freestyle was much more insulting and denotes a prejudicial preception that all black ppl live in that environment. Rachel does not and as never been from "the hood".

Rachel seemed to like Peter's freestyle a lot, as she told him as such. Obviously it didn't offend her.

Lots of great comments.

I was a big fan of Peter's early on and was grossed out by Bryan on night 1.....  But Bryan has grown on me and Peter's odd behavior is certainly concerning....so now I will just be happy with whomever she picks.

But my thought while watching last night was that the Bryan edit is too obvious for F1 and that Peter's edit is totally wonky.  Any chance they are just trying to hide Peter?

Based on what I've seen so far, I don't think this is the type of relationship that she's looking for. She likes a "four-alarm blaze" and right now these guys are blowing smoke. IMO

Rachel is shy to look at Bryan's eyes versus Peter who always looking down during the conversation and Dean who is smiling big during heavy conversation.

that says it all IMHO

We did not see much of Dean last 2 episodes... and Peter isIMO a self centered man (the last picture of himself on the bench is a clear message of: look at me!!!!look at my gorgeous body!!!!.... that is IMO definitely a lot of ego there)

So I watched this vid. I could hear the prods.... what do you think about bryan? and all the BS questions in order to create the atmosphere IMO. I think it was a lot of jealousy in this conversation.

Bryan, Eric and Alex
Peter, Dean and ?

I am curious of the association.

A thing isn't beautiful because it lasts. It's beautiful because it doesn't. It has been an absolute honor to be part of @therachlindsay's journey. I am a very ordinary man, who got to experience very extraordinary things, by a stroke of luck. I could not have been more blessed or humbled. Rachel is a remarkable woman, I cannot say enough about her and how she has handled herself through this difficult endeavor. For all the great things said about Rachel, and and the praises she doesn't want to hear, it all pales to what she really is like. She is incomparable, unparalleled, and inimitable. I have the utmost respect for everything that she is and everything that she has done. But beyond all that, she's just a ball of fun and joy to be around! I'll never forget all the laughs and smiles we shared. I'm just a goofy guy, who's trying to get the most out of life, without taking myself too seriously. I'll be the first to admit, I was not always cool and smooth around Rachel. In fact, most of the time I was nervous, goofy, and awkward. But, to me, that's what dating is all about. I always figured, if I get comfortable dating, I'm doing it too much. It was never a game, and everything I said and did, I meant it. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your journey, Rach! Thank you for everything. #thebachelorette #rachellindsay #thankyou #blessed #humbled #beweird #actafool #gooflife #goodthingihavetino #teamvacuum #teamrachel #rachmeifyoucan
