[negative-total-drama-takes]

mod mkaaayyyy tell us about yourself drop the list of your least favorite characters >:)

Least favorite of all time is Chase. I think it should go without saying that he’s a horrible person and the way his fans treat him is straight up misogynistic- no, him nearly killing his girlfriend, wanting to change her name and permanently disabling her mother was not “funny.” The chemma arc as a whole was just written so poorly and I’m praying that Emma finally gets justice for all of the shit that Chase put her through if we ever get a season 3.

Not too fond of Duncan either. He just makes so many little misogynistic comments when it’s not necessary at all and regardless of how shitty your partner is cheating has no excuse.

I’m still pissed that so many reboot characters were robbed of the development they needed in season 2 for the sake of Priya and Caleb getting more screentime. I loved priya in season 1 but the praleb arc was just so dry and flat that I wanted to rip my hair out every time I saw those 2 survive another episode, especially when a much more interesting character was eliminated instead.

My unique pick for a least favorite is the RR ice dancers. I am 100% going to be flamed for this but while I do like antagonistc characters normally, there is a line between antagonist and horrible person I have zero incentive to root for. The ice dancers were just straight up annoying with their “we need to get first in every challenge no matter what” and I don’t like how a bunch of other characters suffered because of it.

Oh and I guess I’m really sick of hearing about a lot of the more popular male characters (namely Noah, Owen, Cody and Harold) to the point of where it’s genuinely soured my opinions of them

[real-total-drama-takes]

my favourite and least favourite td characters by generation (controversial!)

(not including first boots because it’s an obvious and boring choice)

gen 1 —

fav: heather. i have so much to say about her but i’ll keep it brief, it’s obvious she has parental/family issues and she’s mean to compensate for the fact she’s insecure. so real, and she’s just rlly funny and well developed! heather haters wtf

least fav: cody. look.. ik i’ll get jumped but he’s just so BORING! out of many early boots of gen 1 the rest of them have fun personality traits or character development but he kinda just floats. like nothing rlly happened until world tour finale with him 😭

gen 2 —

fav: lightning! again with heather he has daddy issues and he’s mean but dumb.. but omfg he’s so funny. robbed in all stars and deserved his win, lightning haters NTFM 😭😭

least fav: sam. i was gonna pick staci cuz duh but where’s the fun if you pick the early boots? he was just not funny but his video game addiction gimmick was ok in the lindsay cameo episode

gen 3 —

fav: jasmine. not much has to be said.. i love her and she was robbed in final 4. only sane person on that island i fear, shasmine >>>>>! i hated her elimination but when she came back in the finale i was pleased

least fav: max like BOY IF YOU DONT STFU 😭 self explanatory

gen 4 (rr) —

fav: ice dancers, like ik they were evil and shit but where’s the fun if ur just gonna be a goody two shoes.. let’s be real they carried so hard but their elimination was satisfying ;) josee is me

least fav: stepbrothers, i’m sorry but i just didn’t get their gimmick at all and it was just painful to watch these two on screen. happy they got eliminated but i wasn’t like an avid hater

gen 5 (reboot) —

fav: julia. and ik she’s so hated but she’s literally girlboss gatekeep gaslight like wtff is ur issue with her. admittedly it was fun watching her get eliminated but i loved her arc, hope she gets far in season 2!

least fav: ripper. NEXT! (close second is chase, cuz wtf is ur real boy i’ll kill you)

"no man should be that flexible."

guidelines !?

no smut! obvious enough, but the characters in the shows are minors! and as a minor myself, it is incredibly uncomfortable for me to write smut. the most i will write for is making out, and even then it will be very brief and undescriptive.

be respectful! simple and common sense, but some people don't have that. especially when it comes to the characters i like/hate. if you don't like my content or my opinions, LEAVE!

be patient! i have my own life outside of the screen and i have other priorities. if you have an issue with how much time i'm taking to finish a request, ask elsewhere!

don't request for the characters i hate! they will be included in my dni list as "____ stans". if you request for them, i will delete your ask!

don't request for characters that i do not include in my "character list" section! like i said before, if you request for them i will delete your ask!

no dark content! this means yandere, pedophilia, incest, step-incest, etc. even if you support this content, dni!

i write for basically anything else! you can request self-insert x character, oc x character, character x character, platonic relationships, familial relationships, etc. as long as they follow the guidelines/dni list!

[dakotazoidstan]

projecting my ongoing joke i tell to my friends “men with skateboards cant drive” as a headcanon onto alejandro. for the longest time he just tells people his car is in the shop, thats why he needs rides/has jose drive him but he primarily skates most places.

[joseeapologist]

this is exactly how I envisioned it.

love josee assuring jacques in the hot coal challenge sm... "just like the olympics this is one ginormous mind-game" 💕🥰💕 absolutely had to protect him from other teams trying to mess with his head all their lives

[courtney-deserved-better]

my opinion on td finalists

spoiler alert, im not a fan of most

TDI: Owen & Gwen

uh I personally don’t like either of these guys for finalists. gwen did do a lot but there were so many times where she just acted so apathetic I was like why?? are you still here?? and as for owen... I didnt like him as a character for a Long Time and he's growing on me but he just doesnt seem like finale material

I think a duncan versus leshawna finale would've been super fun to watch. especially if they teamed up to take down heather in the semifinal. those two had such a fun dynamic, especially in the triathlon episode, that I think taking it to the finale would've been fantastic. also leshawna deserved to win that season and you cannot change my mind

TDA: Duncan & Beth

duncan, while not my first choice, I can see making it through to the finale this season. but beth?? no. im sorry but shes just too much of a side character and is canonically fake nice and annoys everyone else so it doesn’t really make sense

an interesting finale would’ve been duncan versus courtney considering how volatile their relationship was this season. however, bc courtney was kinda awful to duncan, I dont think she deserves to win this season. it would be cool if there was one ending where their votes tied and they made up and decided to split the money but that just feels too tame, both for a finale and for their dynamic

harold versus duncan could be interesting, but because duncan tends to bully harold, I dont think his win would be fair in this situation. I think lindsay versus harold would be the best, as this season is about lindsay learning to take charge and come up with strategies, and while he can be off-putting and occasionally condescending, I think harold has a lot of useful skills that could really flourish in the finale

TDWT: Heather & Alejandro

while I dont ship them at all, I truly dont think there could've been a more satisfying final two. we’ve had their rivalry build up from day one, they have a ton of good songs together, it really completes heather’s arc of antagonist to antihero to protagonist. heather winning is the best ending in my mind, but I like  alejandro winning too. the only problem I have with his ending is that it only happened because heather threw in the wrong dummy-- I think it would’ve been more clever for him to have switched them or something like that

ive been thinking about some other final twos that I think would be interesting, though unable to top the canon one imo. gwen versus courtney would be really cool because of the friends turned enemies thing-- I think it would be interesting for courtney to be put in danger and gwen has a choice of saving her or going for the money and she save courtney before apologizing again (maybe dumping duncan) and the two make up and split the money. 

though I don’t really enjoy either as characters mostly due to their writing, cody and sierra would be an interesting final two. maybe cody finally stands up to sierra, or sierra struggles with wanting to be the winner of total drama or helping the boy she likes win. it definitely wouldn't be as good as the canon two but there would be a lot of clashing dynamics at play that'd be fun to explore

TDROTI: Lightning & Cameron

admittedly, I don’t remember too much from this season, but it really felt like these two kind of coasted by. I never found lightning to be a particularly compelling character and thought it weird how he suddenly went from dumb jock to evil jock in the last episode or two. cameron really felt like he was just carried through the season, similarly to beth, though I dont have as much as an issue with him winning. I dont think it was a bad finale, per se, I just think if those were the final two they should've been written better from the start

seeing as how jo really played the game and went all in, I think she would’ve been a great finalist. it would’ve been interesting to see her versus (commando?) zoey though im not the biggest zoey fan. I think a jo versus lightning finale could actually work (or brick) though if there was a jo versus cameron finale, I couldn't see him logically winning bc jo would just destroy him

TDAS: Mike & Zoey

*BIG FUCKING INHALE* no. just no. im probably not gonna say anything that’s not already been said so ill keep it short. bland, mal writing bad, have someone who's been in the game for 3 previous seasons instead of  1 make it to the ALL STARS FINALE. jfc.

you know what would’ve been an interesting finale? gwen versus courtney. they both said they wanted to reach the final two with the other one, so maybe they do! maybe they start to struggle with their friendship because of courtney’s competitive streak! maybe one of their helpers is duncan and that causes strife between them! maybe they become enemies again and don’t make up until the finale! maybe they decide to split the money! idk! it would've had a hell of a  lot more flavor than what we got

TDPI: Shawn & Sky

I don’t really have an issue with either of these characters making it to the finale. they’re compelling, worked hard, and have distinct goals. I would’ve liked to see jasmine in the finale but I'd be cool replacing either one with her: jasmine and shawn having to compete against one another would be an interesting relationship hurdle and sky versus jasmine would've been cool because they’re both very athletic and it would’ve been the first f vs f total drama finale (we've had m vs f and m vs m but no all-girl finales...)

TDRR: Surfer Dudes & Police Cadets

Again, I don’t really have an issue with this finale. I really like how Sanders and MacArthur both work hard in their own ways and have to learn how to work together (MacArthur breaking Sanders’ arm and realizing that she can negatively affect her partner and also that Sanders is super tough was a GREAT arc). I know there’s been some contention about the Surfer Dudes being eliminated and then coming back so late in the game, but it made sense to me. They chose to lose because they felt that they owed it to Devin and Carrie, and that choice paid off when Devin and Carrie called in a replacement team. I doubt the surfers expected that to happen, they were just trying to be fair, but that kindness was rewarded in a big way which I think was sweet, especially  considering how much of a hot mess this show can be. 

I gotta say, this does kinda remind me of the TDI finale, with the villain (heather/ice dancers) getting eliminated third, and their rival (gwen/police cadets) making it to the finale with the fun guy (owen/surfer dudes). The reason I like the Surfer Dudes as finalists more than Owen is that I felt they put in more effort during challenges and had more of an arc (with Josee’s mind games ending up bonding them as a team after strife, choosing to be eliminated for the sake of fairness, etc). 

Speaking of Owen, it’s kind of ironic that if I had to replace a team in the finale, I would replace the surfer dudes with the reality tv pros. they’re my favorite team and I think it wouldve been great for them to really live up to their name. I think it also would've been funny for the ice dancers to be so focused on their rivalry with the cadets that the pros just completely go under their radar until its the final three and the ice dancers are like “oh crap they’re PROS why haven't we been trying to destroy them??”

I also wouldn't mind replacing the surfer dudes with the sisters. I know emma gets a lot of hate (mostly because of nemma which I only like platonically) but I actually like her as a character (when she wasn’t being obsessive) and I think she and kitty were a great team that had a good arc of learning to work together. I also think it would be really interesting because for the final three they would all have rivalries with one another: the police cadets and the ice dancers (obvious) the ice dancers and the sisters (josee messed with them in at least 2 challenges) and the sister and the police cadets (kitty and macarthur’s game/road rage was hilarious)

[total-ass]

most td platforms are trash but i’ll respect td tumblr the most for not being filled with 10 year olds that hate on the “mean” characters like heather courtney jo and josee on the basis of them being antagonists

[joseeapologist]

Okay although my OTP is Jacsee, I HC both of them as bisexual so I would like to take the time to rate mlm Jacques ships and wlw Josee ships that I’ve seen.

WLW Josee Ships:

Josee x Jen: 7/10. I mean... it's nice and a good ship and I can see why people ship them! I prefer them as friends though tbh. Everyone knows that I see Jen as the mom friend that would look after Josee.

Josee x Sanders: 9.5/10. Honestly the superior wlw Josee ship. The reason why it's not 10/10 is because my second favorite TD ship is MacSanders, so that kind of knocks it down. A lot of it is because of the Bahamas episode. Jacques had pretty much abandoned her (ugh i hate Jacques in that episode) and Sanders was pretty much the only one that really gave a shit when she was struggling. It’s a really underrated wlw ship with Josee and I think that this is the only ship that Josee can have (other than Jacques, of course) in which it could work. Josee x MacArthur: 4/10. Besides me loving MacSanders, I can't see Josee and MacArthur as a romantic couple. But hear me out, I do see them having a really strong platonic bond way after RR. Platonic Macsee is TO DIE FOR (I’ve bounced off so many platonic Macsee HCs with @realitytvpros and it’s all her fault) I think a strong friendship between them is entirely possible, because they both had similar upbringings and could relate to each other with that. Also, they have proven to have gotten along a few times in the show. Romantic Macsee is a no, but as a platonic ship with Josee, Macsee is definitely my favorite.

Josee x Carrie: 1/10. Absolutely not. Josee would be irritated very quickly by Carrie. Josee x Kitty: 1/10. See Josee x Carrie. Also I HC Kitty as Aroace. 

Josee x Emma: 6/10. I kind of dig it, actually. Write a fic and I might like it more. Josee x Stephanie 5/10. Eh... it’s sort of how I feel about Josee x Emma, but I feel like it would be harder to convince me. 

MLM Jacques ships:

Jacques x Tom: -2/10. No. I’ve gone through this so many times that I don’t know if I should bother explaining because we’ll be here forever. To keep it short, shipping the two effeminate men who were “confirmed” as gay is not progressive, and that Tom/Jacques is basically Noco for adults, and I had been harassed by too many of their shippers.

But as I always say, platonic Tomques is incredible. My favorite platonic ship with Jacques, actually. 

Jacques x Ryan: 9.5/10. You want a good mlm ship with Jacques that could work? This. This right here could work. This is the superior mlm ship for him. I forgot who made the analysis about how Jacques and Ryan could work, but it was a very good read. 

Jacques x Ennui: -834934759/10. Saw this tag in AO3. Almost threw up. Wanting to wash my eyes out. I’m pretty sure Ennui is 17 and Jacques is 22. 

(Honestly I haven’t seen many mlm ships for Jacques and this is pretty much it, I only like Jacques/Ryan)

[habsfans98]

Reflection of the 2010′s in the NHL

Favorite season in the 2010′s

My favorite season by far in the NHL this decade, was the 2013-2014 season. This was the best season that the habs played this decade in my opinion. Not just in the regular season, but in the post season as well. While I know that the 2014-2015 season, was the better season overall in terms of points and numbers. That season, just felt like the “Carey Price show” rather than the habs show (Which resulted in a sloppy first round series with the pesky Sens, and a painful series against the Tampa Bay Lightning. 

The 2013-2014 Season felt like the team wasn’t just relying on Carey Price. It felt like the team new he was the best goalie in the world. And they weren’t going to let his great play go to waste. 

Resulting a deep playoff run, that only ended because a dirty play. (NO! I still haven’t forgiven Chris Kreider for the taking out Price in that series. And I never will!) 

Favorite Player of the 2010′s 

My favorite player of the 2010′s isn’t who you probably expect me to pick. And I honestly really thought about this one. You’d think I’d pick PK Subban. But really, it was Carey Price, and it has everything to do with being the heart and soul of the Canadiens, for all of this decade. I know that since I made this blog. I’ve made many posts and rants, that the habs overly rely on Price to steal games from the habs. But, he’s never complained about it. Not once. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a single comment, or criticism come from Price. That’s honestly why he’s my favorite player of decade. He let his play speak for him, all decade long. 

Favorite Playoff series of the 2010′s 

If you are a habs fan, and your favorite playoff season of the decade isn’t the 34th meeting between the Boston Bruins vs. Montreal Canadiens in the second round of the 2014 Stanley Cup playoffs. Shame on you. That series, was spectacular. It was everything a Habs vs Bruins series should have. Hard hits, dirty plays, shitty talking on and off the ice, amazing goaltending between Carey Price and Tukka Rask. Still remember the jumping for joy when Subban scored the game winner in game 1 OT. But it was game 6. Down 3-2 in the series and facing elimination home. Every player in the habs uniform that game, played at a whole new level. All of this capped off with a satisfying game 7 win, in a silenced TD Garden, after a 3-1 win. 

Favorite Stanley cup Final of the 2010′s 

I hate the fact that for a second decade in a row. The habs couldn’t get to the stanley cup finals! 

However, that didn’t stop me from watching every stanley cup final during this decade. And so many of them were spectacular and memorable. The one that fits the favorite category was the 2012 Stanley cup Final. 

There’s one reason why this is my favorite Finals. My high buddy predicted the LA Kings winning the cup. That’s right. In my final year of high school. My hockey crazed friend, told me with a straight face, the LA Kings would win the Stanley cup. This was before they changed coaches mind way though the season, and still stayed true to his prediction, when they made in as the eighth seed in the west. When I asked him why he thought they’d win, he gave me just gave me two names: Anze Kopitar, and Jonathan Quick. 

The LA Kings themselves also made this a memorable series. Winning both games 1 and 2 on the road in OT, stopping the Devils on home ice in game three, only to lose both games 4 and 5, to have one of the most brutal plays of the decade, cause the dreaded five minute major to the Devils, that ended there season. 

It was the first time an eight seed in North American Sports, ever won a Championship.  

Most Disappointing NHL moment of the 2010′s 

Sigh... For New York Rangers fans. Game 4 of the 2014 Eastern Conference Finals was an unforgettable night for one moment in particular. Martin St. Louis OT winner. It’s also my most Disappointing moment of the 2010′s. It was the first time since a 2011 World Junior Gold medal game, where my heart sank like a rock in a pond. 

St. Louis goal, gave the Rangers a 3-1 lead in the series. the habs would bonce back with a 7-4 win in game six. That’s as much has the habs offense could must. As they could score again against the Rangers losing 1-0 in Madison Square Garden. 

So many things happened in that series that I look back on as what if’s. What if Chris Kreider didn’t crash into Price on purpose and injure him? What if the offense didn’t dry up in game six? What if the five players on the ice remember Martin St. Louis was still in are zone before he scored that OT goal against are third sting goalie? Would have won a game seven back in Montreal? 

These are the question that will never have answers...

Most Shocking moment of the 2010′s 

Honestly, we had some shocking moments in the NHL this decade. Some on the ice, some off the ice. Yet, I don’t think anyone expected what happened during the 2017-2018 season. 

No one! NOT A SINGLE PERSON! Predicted what happened that season. And if your did; you clearly owned a god damn time machine! 

THE VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS.  

A brand knew expansion team, with players picked up from the other 30 teams in the league; that either didn’t want them, tossed them away for cap relief, or just saw no harm in letting them leave for the new time. Some how managed to become the greatest expansion team in North American Sports History. 

In their first season in the NHL. The Knight had a record of 51-24-7 for 109 points, and winning the Pacific division. They then swept the LA Kings in the first round, Humiliated the San Jose Sharks in the second round, and humbled the Winnipeg Jets (turning the entire nation of Canada against them), by beating them in 4-1 in the western conference finals to make the Stanley cup final. They would lost to the Capitals in five games in the Stanley up Final. However, that last part doesn’t change the fact that all these events happened...

IN THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS FIRST NHL SEASON!

Nothing that has happened in this decade will ever or can top that at least to me! 

[auburnfamilynews]

November. It’s a month that sends shivers up the spine of any College Football fan. It’s a month that defines years in ones life. 1996? A miserable year. 1997? The way God intended a year to be. 2014? None of that sir. 2017? All that and twice on Sundays please. November is all of 10 days old and there are some teams that want to have a do-over already. “Who are they?”, you ask dear reader. Well pull up a cha…oh you’re already sitting. Well, sit back and enjoy this week’s BOOM! Roasted!

WILLIE CHAD MORRIS WATCH 2019

Arkansas has had a rough go of it for the past…well for a good while now. Member when BERT had them humming? Don’t worry, their fans don’t either. But Chad Morris came in two years ago with the promise of a HUNH offense that worked (sorta) at SMU and definitely did at Clemson. Well, the rebuild had the look of the movie The Money Pit. Everyone always saying, “It’ll take two more weeks.” More like two more years. We all got to see what I’m talking about a couple of weeks ago when the Auburn offense exploded on the Hogs for 51 points while the defense didn’t give up a point until its was second and third teamers against the Hogs’ ones in the second half. Well this week Arkansas hosted Western Kentucky for Senior Day. And the fan base came out in their finest

And boy did they sure show up for the contest too!

Is it just me, or when you see it like that does it make it look even worse? I mean it’s bad, but that way make it even worse right? Well it wouldn’t take long, as one would expect, making this the shortest watch in the history of the Roasted.

Wins under Chad Morris: Eastern Illinois, Tulsa, Portland St. and Colorado St. Losses: Colorado St., North Texas, San Jose St., Western Kentucky AND every SEC game. What a strange year and a half for Arkansas football. https://t.co/MQKJROaaKl

So now we have FSU and Arkansas open for jobs and now the fun really begins as the rumor mill starts in full tilt!

“We’ve already crossed off Urban Meyer; we’ve already crossed off Bob Stoops. Today’s story — which is utterly ridiculous — is they are trying to reach out to Nick Saban to be the next coach at Florida State. The FSU coaching search is already off the rails.”—@ClayTravis pic.twitter.com/BloE3M0XgE

Yup, coaching moves this year are gonna be stupid.

HAVE A GLASS OF WATER BIG FOURTEEN TEN, YOU’RE DRUNK

So, I sorta shorted you guys last week when I only did two games last week cause I couldn’t find another Boys II Men song that worked for me so I will make up for it here. First off, Michigan State is always known for a stingy defense and a coupe of guys they put out on offense and they sometimes score points, but not often. Well this week they hosted Illinois in East Lansing and it looked to be an easy day for the home team.

See what I mean about that scoring thing? Well they would hold a 28-3 lead over the Illini until the last play of the 2nd quarter.

Ok, so that’s unfortunate but Sparty would add a field goal to make it 31-10 as we entered the 4th quarter of play. Layup win right?

Well…

Not good.

UNBELIEVABLE! @IlliniFootball comes back from 25 down to seal the largest comeback in school history. Oh, and they're going bowling. pic.twitter.com/Fp2VhUAPtQ

Yeah, that’s…wow…

Also, it makes Illinois bowl eligible. It leaves Michigan State unable to make plans yet for after November.

And the worst part, this was at home. I am a Falcons fan (I know I enjoy pain but at least we beat the Aints) so I can commiserate with Sparty here but….damn dude, at least we did that to a good team, you did that to Illinois.

In the other half of the fun in the B1G, Minnesota played their first significant game since Roosevelt was in office against Penn State this weekend and the Gophers brought out the big guns to rattle the Nits.

Well played Minnesota, well played.

As for the game, man was it fun. Back and forth battle where defense was optional but still had some great defensive plays sprinkled in. In the end, this would happen.

Good for Goldy, they were starved for a big victory since the last one they really had was Glenn Mason telling Georgia nevermind back after they fired Ray Goff. (YEAH TAKE THAT GEORGIA! A MINNESOTA COACH TOLD YOU NO!! HATE WEEK STRONG BABY!)

LAST ONE FOR THE ROAD

Pac-12 suspends referee 1 game for mistakenly accessing a hands to face penalty on Washington State player instead of Cal player, who committed penalty in WSU-Cal game Saturday. Remainder of officiating crew “downgraded” according to league office

— Brett McMurphy (@Brett_McMurphy) November 11, 2019

SEC fans like to think we have the worst officials on the planet but apparently the PAC-12 asks for volunteers at that booth beside the Credit Card signup station before you enter the stadium. This is the 3rd...THIRD!...instance of the PAC-12 suspending one or a group of refs for making an egregious error during a game.

This is play incorrectly called against @WSUCougarFB’s @hd42___. It was 20-11 Cal at this point. Call resulted in a 59 yard swing against WSU. No one is suggesting the result changes on this call, but it’s another example of the ineptness of @pac12 officials. #GoCougs https://t.co/QzkluqKeQu pic.twitter.com/JO48mUjCpg

I know its kind of hard to tell from the video but I can tell that only one helmet shot back. Man, I know the gonja is legal out there and all but there ain’t no dang sense in the refs gettin’ in to it in the pregame WEST COAST PAWL!

NOTHING ELSE HAPPENED THIS WEEKEND AND YOU SHOULDN’T SCROLL DOWN ANY FARTHER

[captainweatherly]

Just took a look at Irma's projected path.. it shifted slightly over night. More of southern Florida is in the cone now. (Hopefully it's shift was enough to miss Athens... my dog hates storms) Supposed to be a Cat 1/TS when it hits Atlanta on Monday night.

Also, Jose is now a Cat 4. Routed for Virgin Islands.

Also, new TD in the Pacific that may form into a TS or hurricane over the next few days.

Keep your eyes on the weather, my friends, it's a tad cray this week.

‘Bachelor’ and ‘Bachelorette’ football careers, power-ranked

Several contestants on this show have been decent to above-average football talents.

ABC’s The Bachelor and Bachelorette make for one of America’s most beloved reality franchises (or most-hated, depending on which side of the fence, if any, you sit on).

The show is primarily about trying to find love while the nation watches on TV, and a number of former football players have gone on the show. Let’s power-rank them by the success of their football careers, between the college and pro games.

1. Ryan Sutter, Colorado: Bachelorette 2003

Sutter starred on the first-ever season of The Bachelorette, and got married to Trista Rehn after the show. Sutter, a former walk-on, played safety for Colorado from 1993-97.

CU Football Media Guide

During his senior season, he led team in total tackles with 170. As of 2019, he had more special teams tackles (64) than anyone in Buffs history.

Sutter was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the fifth round of the 1998 NFL draft, but getting cut during training camp. He was picked up by the Panthers practice squad, and was active for one game. Tragically, Sutter broke his shoulder on the first kickoff of the game. He then bounced around with the Seahawks, Barcelona Dragons in the NFL Europe, and Saints, but never saw an NFL roster again.

2. Jordan Rodgers, Vanderbilt: Bachelorette 2016

The less successful little brother of Aaron Rodgers and 2016’s Bachelorette winner, Rodgers, a former three-star recruit and the No. 3 pro style QB from the class of 2010, played for Vanderbilt from 2010-12. He transferred to Vandy from his brother’s JUCO alma mater, Butte College, where he played out of high school.

Rodgers’ stats are fine — he threw for 4,063 yards, 24 touchdowns, and 15 touchdowns during his two seasons as Vandy’s primary starter in 2011 and 2012. Notably, he was part of some of the best Vandy teams in school history. In fact, Rodgers was the first quarterback in school history to lead his team to consecutive bowl appearances.

The Jags signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2013, but was eventually cut. He spent some time with the Bucs, Dolphins, and BC Lions, but didn’t actually play much.

Rodgers turned his victory on the show into an SEC Network football announcer gig too, so hey, respect.

3. Clay Harbor, Missouri State: Bachelorette 2018

Unranked by 247Sports as a recruit in 2006, the tight end accounted for 1,906 receiving yards and five touchdowns over his college career. He earned All-American honors, too.

He spent seven seasons in the NFL, starting with the Eagles, and then spent time with the Jaguars, Patriots, Lions, and Saints. He accounted for 1,170 yards and eight touchdowns during his career, and made 38 starts.

Harbor left Season 14 of The Bachelorette after he tore a ligament in his wrist during a flag football game. But:

I have to thank the whole @BacheloretteABC family for an amazing experience in hindsight I don’t regret my decision to come on and would gladly give my wrist for a chance at love.

— Clay Harbor (@clayharbs82) June 12, 2018

4. Jesse Palmer, Florida: Bachelor 2004

OK. I promise I’m not being biased here as a fellow Florida grad, but Palmer had a pretty successful career for the Gators. From 1997-2000 under Steve Spurrier, Palmer threw for 3,755 yards, 31 touchdowns, and 17 interceptions.

Palmer played alongside fellow Gator Doug Johnson, whom Spurrier liked to rotate in a lot at QB.

In 2001, he was drafted by the New York Giants in the fourth round, where he lasted just four seasons, mostly as a backup. He threw for 562 yards, three touchdowns, and four interceptions in eight games. He was signed briefly by the Minnesota Vikings, but retired from football in 2007 to pursue a broadcasting career.

5. Colton Underwood, Illinois State: Bachelorette 2018, Bachelor 2019

Please don’t @ me, ladies. This is a completely fair place to put Colton. He went from a two-star recruit (by Rivals, per his school bio) to a two-time All-American, like it says on his Instagram bio.

During his Redbirds career, he registered 210 total tackles, and finished third in school history with tackles for loss. These numbers are fine, but I’d like to just point out this weird technique I noticed while watching one of his highlight tapes:

After college, the Chargers signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2014, where he only lasted a couple months. He bounced around the Eagles’ and Raiders’ practice squads, but officially retired in 2017 after suffering a shoulder injury in Oakland.

6. Damon Bowers, San Jose State: Bachelorette 2004

Bowers played receiver for SJSU in 1996 before having a pretty successful career in arena ball. He played just one season with the Spartans, in 1996, but caught 36 passes for 676 yards and four touchdowns. He returned punts and kicks for a combined 89 yards, too.

In six seasons in the Arena League, Bowers accounted for 2,120 yards and 27 touchdown receptions, plus another seven rushing TDs. He had 1,743 return yards and four TD returns. Oh, he played defense too! He had 92 total tackles and four interceptions. Bowers gets major points for playing multiple ways.

7. Ryan Hoag, Gustavus Adolphus: Bachelorette 2008, Bachelor Pad 2012

Hoag started his career at Wake Forest to pursue a soccer, then tennis, career before transferring to Division III Gustavus Adolphus College to play football, his first try at playing football full-time. He finished his career there as the school’s all-time leader in receiving yards and touchdown catches.

He was Mr. Irrelevant in the 2003 NFL Draft, and spent six seasons in the NFL, mostly on practice squads, including stints in the CFL and UFL.

Craig Sjodin/ABC

“I never had any visions of reality grandeur,” Hoag said when I interviewed him in 2018. “I actually had no intention of going on a show like that, but it kind of fell into my lap. It was terrible, The Bachelorette, so fake and scripted. They try to get you drunk — I’m not a drinker — so they can elicit a response they want, and if they don’t get the response they want, they send you home.”

8. Tyler Cameron, Wake Forest and FAU: Bachelorette 2019

Cameron’s was a former three-star recruit, and the No. 12 dual-threat QB from the class of 2012. He started his career at Wake Forest as a quarterback.

He mostly backed up QBs Tanner Price and John Wolford before transferring to FAU. He switched to tight end during his senior year in 2016, and had 10 catches for 210 yards and a TD, finishing fourth on the team in receptions.

He was signed by the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent in 2017, but suffered a shoulder injury that ended his football career.

9. Daron Blaylock, Kentucky: Bachelorette 2019

Blaylock, a former three-star recruit from the class of 2012, played outside linebacker for the Wildcats from 2012-15, and had 46 tackles in 23 games.

Blaylock didn’t get an NFL opportunity after his Kentucky career ended.

10. Josh Murray, Georgia: Bachelorette 2010

Like Jordan Rodgers, Josh Murray is the less accomplished football sibling in his family. His brother, Aaron, played QB in Athens for four seasons, and was one the the Dawgs’ most prolific passers.

Josh only played safety for a couple years at Georgia, one of those on the scout team in 2009. During his senior season in 2010, he made appearances against Vanderbilt and Idaho State.

It’s Gameday baby - GO DAWGS! #SEC #Dawgs #Georgia #UGA #GoodMemories

A post shared by Josh Allan Murray (@joshmurray11) on Sep 1, 2018 at 9:53am PDT

Although he did go on to win the TV show, Murray was more talented at baseball. The Brewers drafted him out of high school in the second round in 2002, and he eventually played six seasons in the minor leagues.

11. Sean Lowe, Kansas State: Bachelor 2013

Lowe played linebacker for K-State under Bill Snyder. Coming out of high school, he was a three-star recruit, and the No. 24 inside linebacker prospect from the class of 2002.

Lowe played for Kansas State from 2003-05, but only saw action in four games. This may seem odd given his recruiting rankings, but back in 2002 those weren’t as accurate as they are nowadays. He didn’t pursue an NFL career.

12. Bob Guiney, Michigan State: Bachelorette 2002 and Bachelor 2003

Season 4’s Bachelor was a walk-on at Michigan State in the early 1990s. It doesn’t seem he played or produced much, from a review of old stats books.

13. Adam Gottschalk, Arizona: Bachelorette, Bachelor In Paradise 2017

Gottschalk’s was a member of the team from 2008-11, playing as a backup and scout team safety. He later appeared on Bachelor In Paradise in 2017, where he met former Bachelor contestant Raven Gates, and the two began dating.

However, putting football aside, I have to put him low on this list because of the creepy-ass doll he brought onto the show:

That gets you an automatic demerit on this list.
