LOL Maris. I felt unfulfilled when Vee won but I blame Mark Burnett and his editing on that. I think he has somewhat of an obligation to his loyal fans that tune in season after season to let us see SOMETHING of the winners strategy as the season unfolds. All the things that Vee did to win were pretty much hidden. Now we can look back and see the things she did to advance, but at the time I remember a big HUH? from the internet community. Hindsight is 20/20. Its one thing to not give away the winner through editing but another to (imo) hide the winner like he did. Babies are always cute and I'll try to catch the show.

I feel uncomfortable when someone wins something and thanks God. The implication is that God helped them win. I feel bad for the losers since they may feel that God did not want them to win. In the case of Vee and Neleh, Neleh was very religious as well. It might make her feel bad that God didn't help her win.

Has anyone ever noticed that when people lose they don't blame God? Wonder why....

Heh Maris! Because when you lose, that's the work of 'da debbil'!

Lol, well I am old enough to remember Flip Wilsons saying "The devil made me do it" so sounds to me like the devil has a hand in helping people win

Doesn't bother me, doesn't offend me. I often swear to God, have God dammit, and thank God (especially when I realize that I did remember to set the VCR). I'm glad she won over Neleh. My favorites very rarely (well, only Sandra) win and while Vee wasn't my favorite, she was more in my indifferent category. I didn't dislike her at all. And she's hardly the most religious (not that it even matters, or should matter really)- who was the woman who didn't like the idol? She comes to mind. Anyway- the baby thing. Anyone figure out what the online love thing meant? Maybe she loves to be online now? I don't have cable so I won't be watching, but I would if I could

Have an answer regarding "found love online." -- Looks like Vee and her husband Leander initially met online, and they talk about how they met on the Baby Story show.

Cool! It's good to see that connections started in that medium can work. There is good and bad everywhere--it's always nice when some good comes along for people.

I missed the first 1/2hr but I loved what I saw. The baby boy is soooo cute and kissable. Also Tammy and Neleh was there and Sean was the baby's godfather. Great show I thought.

Darn, I'm mad that I missed it. I wanted to see it. How cool that Sean was the godfather. I wonder if it will be replayed ...

I'm sure they'll show it again. That baby Jordan was the cutest little thing ever. I have never seen a newborn who is so alert and calm. He was just checking everything out.
