I would think with Jef's dad that he is at least a bit "spiritual" and as many racecar drivers as I can think of are Christian. They still pray before races & NASCAR has church there prior to races as well as they are risking their life each time they get in the car...99.9% of them believe in something. Even with the safety measures they still pray for safety. This isn't a spiritual debate but I think the ones who are being labeled as "good Christian boys" are just very strong & vocal with their beliefs that we were able to find quotes or proof about it. JMO

Completely agree. You said what I was thinking perfectly.

Is there any chance that Sean might of had two 1-on-1 dates this season? I am having a hard time picturing him as the F1 if he only had one. JMO I can't wait to find out!

I think he did, just trying to run the numbers again myself.

Repeat dates have never started before Ep. 6 in the long season.

Sean is on the yacht in the group date in Bermuda in Ep. 4, so he did not get a 1-1 in Ep. 4. We know he got one in Ep. 5. We have not seen back to back 1-1s, so I would be very surprised if Sean got that second 1-1 in Ep. 6.

That leaves the 2nd Episode 2nd Date and the Dollywood Date. We have to fit in Jef and Arie.

Jef and Arie were with Jef on the Ep. 4 yacht date, and Arie was on the Ep. 5 England Romeo and Juliet Group Date, but since Ep. 5 isn't a repeat date, we think Jef was perhaps being IM'd or something.

That only leaves two 1-1 dates for Jef and Arie.

Jef was on the Muppet's date in Ep. 2, so that means, I think, that Jef was on the Dollywood date in Ep. 3.

That leaves the Ep. 2 date for Arie.

Someone else can look at this, but this is the way I have it figured.

I don't know what happened to the 2nd date in Ep. 6.

Thanks Bloomers, I actually asked this question in another thread.

So by that I would deduce that Jef or Arie is her F1.

I didn't say that they weren't Christian. I said that they were far-left-of-right. They're not exactly the "by-the-book" types of Sean and Ryan. If I remember correctly, Jef is a non-practicing Mormon or half-Mormon, and I haven't heard "Arie" and "faith" in the same sentence yet. I don't care if they're more left than right. That's a personal decision. It does, however, seem to be a big deal in Emily's life.

From the background intel that we've received, I didn't get a strong vibe from either of them that their faith is numero uno. That's not a big deal to me. I just assumed that it'd be a MASSIVE deal to Emily especially if the dude that she chooses was really who she wanted to marry. I assumed that Emily would want someone who shares her faith. We all know what assuming does.

Just making a statement. I think that Jef and Arie are awesome sauce three times over and around the world. :WAVEY:

Jef is not a Protestant (Christians) and I don't know how we can even assume that he is... He is Mormon because he has said that (pretty straight forward IMO). I have no clue what denomination Arie is. I guess Emily doesn't really care or we won't be shown that convo (like most seasons) except for the 30 year old virgin on Deanna's season.

I agree with you that Emily's type is turning out to be not so conventional. I would have thought it was as Brad was/is/has/always been a very classically handsome man. Enter Jef, that sports some type of faux hawk and hangs with people that dress like they are going to Coachella. Anyway none of that really matters because I think Arie who has the same type build as Ricky, gets tattoos and dresses somewhat fashionably forward is going to be F1. Which if he isn't a member of any denomination might very well be open to going to church with Em and being more supportive of her faith as he learns about it over time.

But yeah, those of us who thought she wanted to investment banker, who coaches little league, and wants to run the youth group at church, that went out the window. JMO

I do think Arie is cuter then Jef but that's just me... I think the biggest strike against Sean is that he only had one 1 on 1 and it was very late in the season.

by JMFan Mon Apr 30, 2012 10:50 am

There is always the possibility that the second date in episode 6 went to Ryan and for whatever reason did not go as planned and Emily did not give him a rose. Just speculation on my part.

lol sorry but no, i'd hate it if they do that as i am not a fan of either one.. something about Graham just makes me feel very weird and uncomfortable.. lol.. JMO though..

I think it'd be cool to have Sean as the next bachelor.. but i tend to think that they pick someone with a "better" (not sure which word to use here) background to be the lead usually.. no offense to Sean, but i don't think they'd like a insurance sales representative to be the lead, JMO.

Isn't that what Jason was? They just gave him the fancier sounding title "Account Executive". They picked Emily as the lead without her having a career at all.

No, but Jason was the single father with an adorable son who got dumped by Deanna after he proposed to her. His career didn't really matter in their pitch for his season. Emily, of course, is the baby mama of Ricky Hendrick, with her daughter the spitting image of her dad, and she has now lost two loves in the public eye - although it's yet to be determined how much Brad will factor into her season - they seem to be cutting his influence in Emily's life out of most of the promos we've seen thus far!

However, Sean doesn't seem to have a complicated back story, and because he only got the one 1:1 date, even if he winds up at F2, there will be plenty of skeptics who won't believe that he truly fell in love with Emily and got his heart broken. If lovable F3, then even that becomes a weaker storyline - and in the absence of a strong backstory or a high-profile career, there really isn't much to market with. We may yet see a more compelling story for Uncle Seanie once the season airs, but this is JMO at this point!

Or the next lead is someone not from Em's season - afterall, Em is the bach this season....

Graham Bunn has expressed interest....

On his thread on an interview, he said he would LOVE to be considered; however, I don't think they could MAKE Graham commit, and that is what they absolutely require of the Bachelors. Regardless of what the lead Bachelors may say, I think Fleiss is adamant the Bachelor is going to propose at the end at the FRC. I just do not think Fleiss is going to have another Brad 1 where he walked away with no one, and we heard Fleiss say what he thinks of the other options in no uncertain terms.

Graham would absolutely consider it, IMO. Not only is there the mention in that interview but he's also been responding to everyone who suggests it to him or wants him to do it on Twitter. Case in point:

@Jennaboo573
If i could pick one of the previous cast members of The Bachelorette to be the next bachelor it would be @GrahamBunn ❤

Graham Bunn ‏@GrahamBunn
@Jennaboo573 awwww you re so sweet!! That a be awesome !!!!

I wonder if Roberto will be a consideration. I actually think he may have been slated to be the next bachelor after Ali's season as the producers most likely expected Chris to be F1 -even had scouted the land of rainbows for the fantasy dates. As far as I know, Roberto is not dating anyone - he tweeted not too long ago that it would be nice to go on a date. Having him as the bachelor would be good PR in light of the lawsuit they are facing about minority discrimination.

The only "date" references on his Twitter were about the Chris4Life charity auction event that took place last month; nothing about his personal life.
