Papi on being tested for steroids: "All they are going to find is a lot of rice and beans."
I cater to the Regs!
As understandible as it is to have this attitude, the flip side is that many people can't see past it when voting. They want to throw sympathy and "he tried hard" votes in, and well... frequently those (especially combined with his hard core fans and those people who maniacally vote 15 times just for him) outnumber the people who vote for someone like Tia, who's only obsessively worshiped by us slightly older "Wayne's World" era voters.![]()

I may have once again come too late to the party but here's my two cents for what it's worth.
It appears to me that the judges have become irrelevant. They have consistently placed P dead last every single week and yet he is still in this competition. Why? Because the scoring it not based on total points but on placement. They could give him all zeros but he would still get a score of 1 for being in last place. The next person above him could get a 25 from the judges but would only get a score of 2 for being in second to the last place. He only has to place somewhere in the middle of the pack with the voting public every week to stay in the competition. I really think that more weight needs to be given to the judges scores, after all they are the professionals.
As someone who loves to watch good dancing and loved the first season, this one has been very frustrating for me. In the first show of the first season I did not like Kelly Monaco and if it had been up to me she would have been kicked off first. But to her credit she worked really hard and improved a lot and by the end I really did like her dancing (although I didn't think she deserved three perfect tens on the final show.) But P has made no effort to improve and doesn't even care about this. Sadly I think George and Edyta will get the boot this week and although George is not the best dancer technically he is very entertaining and I've enjoyed watching him immensely.
Well, you'll be happy to know that I didn't give P and votes and I gave Tia more votes than any of my other favs (Drew, Stacy, and Jerry).
She was definitely the most improved this week. Quite lovely! (and might I add, she looks more like the Wayne's World Tia--or at least the True Lies one--each week. My friends that I watch with agreed that she might be the come-from-behind celeb to watch.
Hey, Ms. Froggy, sorry to ruffle your feathers (or whatever frogs have that can be ruffled). In response to your actual quesiton, maybe the matador was from Brooklyn and commutes to Spain.
Seeking form amidst the void.
But if that's not possible, gimme a Margarita...shaken, not stirred...and hold the salt, please.
Well, he's a master something anyway. You won't be surprised to hear that I disagree with this assessment. By picking the tango which was difficult and actually painful for Stacy last week instead of the jive which she has some experience with he made it clear that as far as he is concerned this is all about him. I find his choreography for the most part dull and repetitive. She is doing well in spite of him not because of him. In addition I don't want to miss the opportunity to say that he acts like a jerk.
I never vote, but if there was an anti-vote for P, I would be forced to participate. George is great fun and I would hate to see him go, but if Tia or Drew go before P, I will be outraged.
This is one of my favorite reality shows.

I think Tia is gorgeous - such elegance and grace about her dancing. I always throw several votes her way, not just because she deserves them but also because I don't think she has the fan base of a certain unmentionable person. I hope she goes far.
Week 4 is so AWSOME!!! It's makes me feel like get up and on dance. It's makes me feel like I want to go on Dancing with the Stars.
Anyways, all the stars dance so great except Master P and Tia. Stacy dance the Fox Trot so elegant. Lisa jammed the Pasa Doble, it is AWSOME!! Drew can dance the best Pasa Doble EVER!! And Jerry Rice, best comeback ever. I love the way Jerry dance the Fox Trot.
I love Dancing with The Stars, and the #1 dance reality show. I wish Bob Barker from The Price is Right should be on Dancing with the STars.
