Eric & Jeremy - Friends

Apparently this is Jeremy. I didn't find the pic, just the link which a friend sent me. So who knows. But it makes me somehow go more "gah" then "hott!1111!!"

One of them is a "valet." Does that mean he parks cars or helps the master dress for dinner?

It's still a big "Hott!!11!1!!1one for me. And on the heels of that, someone posted this photo on another forum. To that poster, thank you very much!

Oh, I'm liking this team more and more! At least until they open their mouths.

Oh, and I really covet that white zip-up that Eric is wearing in the team pic. I really like that.

Hmm. Pix like those make me wonder if we haven't singled out the wrong team as the ambiguous one.

I'm in heart w/ Eric.
Sue me.

It means he's a mactor. ;)

Does the dark-haired one actually have nipple rings? REALLY??? Gawd.

I take back my pre-like for these obvious mactors. Unless, of course, it turns out that they too bring the Gay [as I suspect may be the case, due to (a) the afore-mentioned nipple rings; (b) the spectacularly orange fake tans; (c) the gym-rat bods; and (d) the fact that they're POSING FOR PICTURES TOGETHER IN THEIR UNDERWEAR].

If they pause to gaze longingly into each other's eyes and wish they could quit each other at any point within the first 2 episodes, I will gladly board the Jeremic Love Train. If not, I'll just keep hanging out here at the station with the potentially fabulous Sisters of Unusual Size, who are currently my pre-faves.

Either that, or they were so wasted they couldn't find their pants. Cocky definitely seems like it's a good adjective for them.

At the rate these photos are going, the next one may well be reminiscent of the Riker Twins (a-k-a Derek and Drew from TAR 3).

We should be so lucky . . .

whereverthefk, you are so funny! Where did you get the info about the nipple ring?
It never occurred to me that these two might be gay.... I thought they would be the season's hearthobs.

The nipple ring can be seen in this picture. And judging from their myspace accounts, neither seems highly intelligent. One writes like a five-year-old and the other wears condoms on his head. Oy. We'll see if smarts really matter this season. I am picking up a jocks-vs-nerds theme for this season, but those themes rarely play out. (I didn't believe it when they tried to pit the Chipsters against the Flander..er.. Millie & Chuck.)[/url]

I thought i remembered hearing once that CBS wasn't gonna cast anymore strong male power teams, due to the fact that they are nearly guaranteed to win.

Season One: Rob & Brennan
Season Two: Chris & Alex
Season Three: Zach & Flo won, but only because Derek & Drew couldn't find that damn clue in Vietnam....it was a fluke!
Season Four: Reichen & Chip
Season Five: Lack of a strong male power couple...we only got Marshall & Lance, who were fun to watch, but not an especially strong team. This enables Chip and Kim to win! Wildcard...could have been anyone!
Season 6: Avi and Joe were the only all male team. Again, fun to watch, but not a favorite to win. But this season shouldn't count anyways. Too many mactors and whiny relationship drama.
Season 7: Brian & Greg fell behind after that car accident, which was SO detrimental to them. And I'm not sure if Lynn and Alex would even want to be called a male couple, even though they were definitly a strong team. But watching Uchenna and Joyce win was amazing!
Season 8: Who dey? Dem Linz's! Again, the strong male power team comes out in front, dragging poor Megan along for the ride!

I'm tired of seeing favorites. I like to see such a vast array of contestants that I have no idea who's gonna win.

Is it wrong that I hope this team makes a crucial mistake ala Chip & Kim, Kami & Karli in the first episode....thats what i'd like to see. A strong team eliminated first!

I had a different impression. Eric kept his responses short, but Jeremy is apparently a jokester. I don't think either one of them took the myspace pages seriously, so I wouldn't judge them as not being highly inteeligent based solely on the content of those pages.

As to the photo you linked, I've read that Eric has already posted in his blog there that they sent in that photo with their TAR application.

As to this:

Look at seasons 5, 6, and 7. Two of those three seasons were won by the married black couple. I think CBS decided the show really needed to get back to its roots. I'm hoping that some of the ill-considered rule changes of recent seasons (the lack of fast forwards and the introduction of the yield) will be undone, while I can live with the rule that limited a team member to six roadblock tasks. (Oddly enough, wasn't that rule missing in the Family Edition?

Getting back to Eric and Jeremy, their CBS team bio specifically mentions that Jeremy has travelled a lot, and that for me, coupled with their college teammates background together, is what makes them a definite contender this season. There are no certainties, though (as was mentioned above, Derek and Drew did have problems in Vietnam.)

Is "both" an option, mtwoman? Cause I'm gonna go with "both".
