Slightly OT but I think the finalists should pick their rivals team!

That would be kind of funny. I think in the early seasons Trump gave them a reduced list of candidates and he usually picked ones that were hard to manage.

I thought it was refreshing to see them choose their own teams. It eliminates the, "I did the best I could with an impossible team" defense.

I'm ready for this...hope I'm right that things turn out far better for Lee than where they left off. And Fruit, to reply to your post in the other thread (since it looks like we are moving over here lol), thanks for posting the resumes. I had actually wanted to read them, as I realized I had NO clue what Sean did lol. Had to too lazy so thanks! I must say reading it just confirmed my take on them. Sean is a super good sales person. Lee doesn't have the RL experience yet but has the education and potential. Reading this convinced me more that if Trump wants a PR face to shake hands Sean is definately his guy. If he wants someone who may actually contribute something to the company and most definately would learn a lot as the term "apprentice" implies, then Lee is his boy. Well we'll see soon enough. Though as for voting I'm assuming it will be more pay to text votes and no chance they are getting a cent out of me...don't care that much about either winning lolol. Hope the charity shrew has both a better outfit and a better attitude today! Doubt both.

I would take a person with a "knack" for social skill, over a person with a ton of education, any day. I have worked in customer service (restaurants) for the last 15 years, and you have some people that just get along with people, and then there are some people, no matter HOW MUCH you try, they just say the wrong things, and can't roll with the punches, and say what is most appropriate for making both the business and the customer happy.

Do I dare ask this? I'm still on the fence about the issue myself as I've argued in the Immigration Thread....but, given the recent outroar over 'immigrants taking over American citizen jobs' do you think that might play any small part in the selection tonight? I would hope that the best man wins, but just wondering if anyone else has wondered about that. - ETA, Eeyore I agree with you. But it appears that Sean is no sluffoff in the area of education, while simultaneously having the 'gift of gab'.

I would just to say a big "THANK YOU" ahead of time to anyone who spoils tonight....we left coasters really appreciate it....I am a fan of Sean, and would like to see him get the job, but would not be horribly disappointed if he doesn't....mainly, I want to see if he and Tammy have kept their connection...

Eeyoreslament, I so agree with you about social skill trumping muckymuck university education. Around my house I use that thought. My son who was blessed with great academic skills went to a muckymuck-ish university on academic scholarship but has a little bit of a poopy self-absorbed I'm the bestest person disorder socially. Where my daughter with her state university education has had to struggle to get every B she ever got but is a lovely person that people just gravitate to. I'd hire my daughter over my son everytime. The joke though is he works with me in the family business and my daughter is not so inclined, as of yet. Julieboo, you hit the nail for me. I couldn't understand why I liked this season and you reminded me...because I like both Sean and Lee. Leaning for a Lee win, though. Looking forward to tonight…go Lee and Lenny, my little Russian heartthob. (no accounting for taste, right?)

Andrea is back, only blood vessels were popped... Sean called her the rock of the team?

Neither Lee or Sean did well with their contacts. Sean wanted a man dressed in a Panda suit to sit in the car with Trumpm as an entrance onto the stage. That was nixed. Liz, Lee's contact wants everything on paper first. When Lizz asked Lee who was meeting with the celebs he said Lenny. Lizz's eyebrow nearly flew off.

So, the car guy had a problem with a Panda character hanging around the car in the intro but it is alright it hung around the Donald?

OMG I almost peed my pants. This rocket scientist Sean wants to put one of the Bare Naked Ladies in a panda suit and have him drive onstage in the convertable w/Trump??? Someone want to tell me how shark Sean is??? That Pontiac exec had a super hard time not laughing in his face. Conversely Lee was suprisingly presenting good ideas to that charity lady <> (who now to me is CLEARLY faking it for TV or is just the <55> on the planet) and she is yelling out problems without letting him finish a sentence. And sorry but the "shirt off the back" idea is a damn good one. If the event is a failure IMHO it's because she destroyed it not Lee from what I'm seeing so far.

Sean reminds me of my boss....always very complimentary of her employees, even over little things....when she introduces one of us to anybody, she always uses terms like "she's a star", or "she's the hub of our team", etc. Sean seems to always praise the people that he is working with!

I am getting the impression that both Sean and Lee had not even thought out the details and the contacts are acting like they were told to be HARD and DIFFICULT.

Lenny is a hoot with assigning medium sizes to the players.

Am I wrong in thinking this is the worst PM'ing we've seen in all the seasons? Compare any of these to Bill's win. Not even close.

That is what I am thinking. That the PMing in this final show is edited so that neither one is any good.

Lil and Sea, I'm not so sure it's the editing. I'm thinking, well, I guess I shouldn't say it (since it ain't gonna be nice!).
