Handicapping THE BACHELORETTE
I’d like to take this moment to usher Time in My Mind into an all-time low. Since fellow Amherstonian and Marion L. Steele grad. Jesse Csincsak has made it into the final four, it only seems proper to rank the remaining candidates of The Bachelorette. The remaining beaux are:
