BTW, is it 100%certain that its Lyn VO saying she isn't ready for an engagement?  To me it sounds like Mik being very emotional---  AJMO

Well played, sir. What’s the career plan, post-Bachelor?
I think I might try to flip houses with a buddy of mine. But I have no Hollywood aspirations. Unless Dolph Lundgren needs a body double—but I suppose I’d need to pop some steroids first.

Doesn't sound like Chris has much of plan career wise yet.

I think you’re right. IMO Chris has no plan because he expected to still be playing for at least five more years most likely. He loves the game so much, he played other places during the off season instead of building a bridge to retirement. That says a lot about his lack of preparation for this stage,, IMO

IMO this adjustment period from pitcher for the fabulous Yankees to every day citizen will be quite difficult for Chris. The dads would likely know this because it is a common issue for most pro athletes.  I don’t believe Chris would be insensitive enough to drag a 23 year old along for the ride. He liked Lyndsey immediately but, seemed to recognize they are in different stages of their lives. (and we know she is still suffering from her last move (to NYC) for a relationship with an older guy.)

Meanwhile, her dad -who seemed a bit hostile in the clip - should be asking himself what’s really going on with his daughter, IMO. She’s a beautiful girl, men will always line up to take her away,  especially older men - someone should figure out why she’s so eager to let them.  Ten years is not too much older when a woman is 35 but, it’s too much older when you’re only 23, IMO. I most certainly would not want that huge gap for myself, my friends or, a daughter especially since babies are part of that bargain. Chris has said he is ready for a family.

I think that is Lyndsey and Mik is the one saying "i feel like pulling away from him a little bit".

I also think that when you're young, things look and feel differently than when you've been seasoned by life. For me, I don't see anything wrong with her ability to fall in love (with men of her age or older). It means that she's just opened to experiences and for me, that's a nice thing. Of course, you risk your heart in the process .....

I am sure lindsey's dad has a strong personality, very protector which is normal for a dad.. but by the end of the visit, I am sure everything was okay.
we may know on her blog as i am sure she will defend her family if cutting room show her family under a grey light
