I have been friends with Ryan for over three years now. He trains my son, who has been with him since he came back to Augusta to open his business. Ryan is Christ centered in the way he lives. Compromising his character and integrity, for him, is not an option. This is one person, in many, who have helped my son grow in his conditioning, character, and faith. While watching Ryan train others over the past few years, there is no doubt about the dedication he has to his clients, esp. the youth. He always takes those with him to the next level.

As for those who doubt his integrity for being on a show such as this, don't hate because he is successful. Being around the business, and other areas of sports, then yes, he is the best in town, if not one of the best statewide. He has brought something to Augusta that has been needed for a long time.

Business is business. There is nothing wrong in promoting yourself and your business. If one didn't, they wouldn't have a livelihood.

God leads and we should follow his lead. Like I said earlier, Ryan is Christ centered and only follows where God leads. He takes nothing for granted and would have put a lot of thought and prayer into this decision before he made it.

Anyway, any woman would have a prize in being able to form a relationship with this man. I hope he is successful in any endeavor he pursues.

He sounds wonderful! I CANNOT wait to see him interacting with Emily on the show!

I have a feeling he will be the next bachelor. :Drool: I don't think the very first 1-1 date has ever ended up F1...but have they ever been the next lead?

Do we know who got the FIR this season?

Nope, not yet.

I will not rule out Ryan as F1 because of the first 1-1 date curse. Who knows , maybe he will break the norm and it will be a first time in the Bachelor/Bachelorette history. There is something about Ryan that exudes positive energy.

Personally,I think the episode 3 F1 pattern is merely coincidental. There is always an exception to the rule. I also believe that there is no way the Lead will know who he/she will fall in love with when the dates are being scheduled by TPTB. The relationship and chemistry develop as they go on dates and interact and it is just coincidence that most of the F1 got 1-1 dates on episode 3 . I agree though that the strong contenders or the favorites get 1-1 dates between episode 2-4 and the Final 2 contestants always got 2nd 1-1 dates. Whoever will get the 2nd 1-1 dates will be the top contenders.
