Kash,

Is the rumor true that you will be the girl in The Bachelorette?

Let me be the first to say, one can only dream :)

3:58 = creeper

My god, that guy possesses the archetypal, quintessential "douchebag" grin.

His face is like the Socratic form of douchebaggery.

Patrick Bateman, anyone? I hope he can compete in the business card category.

Patrick Bateman has never heard of Dallas and wouldn't know where it was on a map.

4:17 is correct.

Nice, 4:12. Jeremy is actually a pretty good guy.

What's wrong with this? He's obviously trying to parlay a few moments on reality television living with other men into a career of being an ex-reality show castoff, which will provide endless opportunities outside the law, such as appearing on celebrity weight loss shows, surreal life, etc. This is a good move.

If he's a good guy, why would he have anything to do with that show??

Who cares if he's "a pretty good" guy? The more important thing is that he is smoking hot.....

Hm ... and I thought SMU only gave out Mrs degrees

4:12 pm, I think you mean the Platonic form, not the Socratic form.

This is only being posted to take away attention from the not even a law student yet stripper.

So it's all well and good for this GUY to whore himself on a sleazy dating show, but it's the end of the world when a WOMYN chooses to take her clothes off. Pathetic hypocrisy.

Oh yeeaaaahhhh, I would know what to do with this guy -- bend 'em over my desk and tell my office mate to cover his eyes. - Russ T. Trumbohn

3:56 -- You are ugly and bald *now*. Oh, and you're fat too.

You're retarded, 4:46. Going on a reality TV show is not the same as having a nude spread in a print publication. And no one said the latter was "the end of the world," just that it was a poor career decision.

P.S. you are retarded.

He asked for a leave of absence to appear on "the Bachelorette"? Methinks somebody suspects that he failed the Bar for the 2nd time . . .

Christ, 4:52, are you really that dumb? 4:46 said "womyn" for crying out loud. You're clearly not in any position to call anyone else retarded.

Guys in my high school used to fail the bar for a second time and then go on reality tv shows to hide the fact that they were studying all the time. It was no big deal.

What. A. Tool. He should be disbarred.

4:54- Don't take the lord's name in vain, damn it.

This is just as bad a career decision as taking your clothes off. I'd never hire anyone who'd been on a reality TV show, even if they were Top Legal Talent, which this guy clearly is not.

See, if he were an M&A associate right now he could be on the show and still be pretending to work and no one would notice.

5:01 is funny.

Bald is beautiful!

4:53 - He passed the bar. Click on the link that goes with "Feb 2008 bar." His name is on the pass list.

He's okay looking in a bland fratboy way, but the Bachelorette is alarmingly unprestigious. When it's the "Bachelor," isn't the guy usually rich or a prince or something? This slice has an Associate's Degree in General Studies. He could have landed a better credentialed golddigger by staying in Dallas.

feb 2008 was his first time to take the bar, he didn't fail summer 2007.

The Bachelorette is a reject from the Bachelor. Why anyone would go on TV to vie for sloppy seconds like that is beyond me.

i'd totally do him. And I'm a guy and not even gay.

4:48 - Good luck with that. He is clearly a top.

You go into some of these law firms in New York, and like a lot of law firms, the jobs have been gone now for six months and nothing's replaced them. And it's not surprising then the associates get bitter, they cling to antipathy to first-year Dallas associates who were placed on probation by Hunton Williams after asking for a leave of absence to do The Bachelorette as a way to explain their frustrations.

- BHO

5:14, why don't you swing by my office later so I can bend you over my desk? Don't worry, I'll tell my office mate to cover his eyes.

BTW It is wonderful to be back on ATL. Over the last 15 months, we've traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been in 57 states. I think one left to go!

I could see the meeting where he asked for leave. "Hi, I know the real estate group here is going gangbusters in this economy, so I'm sure you won't mind if I take some time off to smile up some young hussy on TV.... uh huh.... yes.... uh, don't let the door hit my what on the way out?"

Wasn't there a lawyer who went on the Bachelor and her firm made a big celebration out of it and welcomed her back with open arms? I think there is a double standard at work here.

5:26: Good memory. Denise Gitsham, K&L Gates:

http://abovethelaw.com/2008/03/kl_gates_reality_tv_stars_welc.php

sorry about your tiny pink SMU degree.

4:41 - good call. Both times.

Does anyone think he looks a little like Owen Wilson's brother?

5:37, Luke Wilson? I see no reason to reference lowlife Owen. And yeah, I see it - maybe with a little Matthew Fox in there too. Mmmmmm... now there's a good mental image... off to the men's room!

5:33: equally sorry about your doughy white gut.

--Jeremy "Abs" Anderson

4:41 got total pawnage. Socratic indeed. He is like the Pythargorean square of douchbaggery.

Stay out of oxnard kook.

this guy looks like a douche.

I hope someone takes care of his eyebrows before he goes on TV. They are a nightmare!

Whats a SMU?

a SMU is like an Asbill. There only found at Sutherland.

I think he is handsome but it is never good to be on TV if you want to be taken seriously as a lawyer.

Are SMUs dangerous?

OMG...you people are SO stupid, just as stupid as the law firm!

Jeremy won't need that law firm after this show, he will be swimming in dough by starting his own practice.

If this show doesn't find love for you, it is guaranteed to make you FAMOUS.

Not necessarily. He is ONE of 25 guys. He could make a complete fool of himself. How many one-in-25 do you know that makes something out of being on these shows. Few. Same with Survivor. It might be a litte different if he was the Bachelor. But that ain't it. So maybe not all that stupid.

H-O-T !!! I would so do him under his desk.

Yeah, this is clearly a great move for this douchebag's career. Everyone remembers who comes in third place on the Bachlorette. Plus, have you seen her? I wouldn't quit my BigLaw job for a guaranteed marriage proposal from this boring, average-looking, sloppy-seconds bachelorette.

This douchebag appears to be typical of most guys in Dallas. Dallas is the only place that I've ever been where guys spend more time in a public bathroom messing with their hair than actually using the facilities.

"A 2005 graduate from Georgia Military College with an Associates Degree in General Studies."

OOoooo...between Jeremy and her, they wouldn't have a shot in hell of making the Wedding Watch.

11:48 - You've clearly never been to Long Island.

"put on probation" merely for ASKING for the leave of absence? What a bunch of assholes. A simple NO would have sufficed.

He is suppper HOT! Real Nice guy...I can vouch for it, I'm from Dallas and went to SMU. Killer body...I see him @ the gym in uptown often!

Kash, can you please post some more pics of yourself?

everyone who's hating on anderson is clearly a fat, bald, pudgy, mid-thirties, senior associate who will never amount to anything other than a steaming pile of rancid flesh.

as for anderson, the eyebrows are fine, the smile is fine -- he, in a word, is fine.

Okay, I havent commented on these before, but I decided to go ahead on this one.
I nominated Jeremy for the show. (I thought he would have made a better Bachelor than Bachelorette contestant... but oh well). He really is such an amazing person - very sweet, super attractive, really smart guy. He has only good things to say about Hunton, and he has lots of options right now with firms. I clerked with him during his first half clerkship last summer (but in a different office), and really the only thing wrong with him was that he worked too hard! He didn't let himself have time for a relationship. I think the Bachelorette is great for him!

I dont understand why so many people are being so rude!

"DeAnna juggled playing softball, being vice president of both her junior and senior classes in high school and working with Habitat for Humanity through her church as she was growing up." She also went to a TTT college. Now she gets to be famous and rich while I slaved away in college and law school while working mostly full time and being an editor on a journal. Now I work long hours at biglaw. Seems like reality TV is a better deal for those that can get it.

Above-The-Law...I would suggest you check your facts because the way this actually played out is very different than your description.

No, 10:46, his eyebrows are not fine. Maybe you're in the Midwest. Maybe you're in the Middle East. But his eyebrows are a nightmare as a matter of law.

actually, 12:40, i'm in NYC. but by your comments, i imagine you're from either long island or somewhere down the jersey shore.

the era of tweezing to razor-thin width is over (if it ever existed). natural and neat is the style du jour. uni-brows are another matter altogether.

Well, 1:29, I'm in Los Angeles, so I trump you re: brow maintenance. Over here, guys can get a brow waxing without looking like a drag queen.

1:48, you have no power here. everyone knows LA is full of screaming WeHo queens whose eyebeows are thinner and more suspect than Obama's current delegate lead.

Seriously, of course this guy was fired by Hunton and Williams. They cannot afford to have such menial laborers working for them. I, on the other hand, received a huge salary boost in exchange for transferring to another office. Strangely, however, they refuse to assign me anymore work. It's probably because they know I would do it so quickly, they wouldn't be able to bill their clients for wasted hours.

-Ovary Bell

Jeremy passed the bar. Is not working for Hunton and Williams right now. Most likely will not go back to them.

2:30, the fact that you're a rice queen who spends all his time in LA at Rage means you're not qualified to discuss what's newly possible in brow waxing technology.

You have some glitter on your face.

I'm curious - did he pass the bar and is he working for Hunton?

haha

after seeing all the guys, he is not the best looking of the bunch.

geaux jeremy :)

Most of you who have posted comments above are absolutely freaking retarded.

Yes, he did pass the bar and was working before the show started taping. Jeremy is a normal down to earth guy (probably better looking than all of you) that happens to have a law degree and is on a TV show. That does’nt give you the right to talk shit about someone most of you don’t even know.

For a bunch of people that are on a legal website you seem very uneducated. Wish you the best Jeremy! -CAB-

I just moved to Dallas from "Not Dallas," and I'm telling you this town is absolutely crawling with former dating show contestants. Almost every guy will tell you he dated a girl on The Bachelor, everyone went to school with a girl on The Bachelor... Spend ten minutes in any given 24 Hour Fitness and you'll swear you've seen at least five guys from Gay, Straight or Taken. Someone should do a study. Put some Dallas/Reality TV statistics together. Maybe someone in real estate finance who has a little time on their hands these days.

Its amazing how many sissies are in the law. Anytime someone gets lucky, 80% of the posters on ATL just can't live with it.

When Charney got his big payday, people essentially said "yeah, he got a lot of money, but he won't work in a biglaw again, yadda yadda yadda, we'll be better off than him". Yeah, riiiiiiiiiiiight.

Now this guy ends up on the bachelor, which could get him any number of rewards....a hot wife, maybe some money, maybe some temporary fame he can parlay into something else, or if nothing else a cool experience...and how do the lawyers react? "Oh, he must have failed the bar". I love the implied "Reality TV isn't something I'd ever do if given the chance." LOL - whatever you have to tell yourself to feel better. Sissy.

Best of luck to this guy. I'm sure that no matter what happens, he'll never miss biglaw. I'm sure the 20% of you who aren't living in denial agree on that.

Why are we forgetting about Fred, the lawyer from 'Chicago' with the most godforsaken midwest accent I have ever heard??

And I say 'Chicago' because his bio (not to mention his accent) clarify that he is in fact from Skokie.

CAB must be Jeremy's stalker wanna-be girlfriend, mom or sister. Geez, the cheerleading is worse than when Elizabeth Edwards had to fight Ann Coulter for her husband. Jeremy elected to go on TV. He is now a public figure and we can speculate all we want about him.

I don't wish him bad luck. In fact, this might work out great for him. But it is still sport to watch his progress, which includes making fun of him.

One more thing. I also said he was good looking so you can't be upset if people like me take a swipe when warranted.

Hahaha. LOL guy is right. 80% -- nay, 95% -- of all lawyers are bona fide, absolute sissies. Myself included. And you, too. But you see, LOL guy, not only would we not go on Reality TV if given the chance, we likely wouldn't leave our houses to see the light of day if that were possible.

Well, I think I can speak for Jeremy because I was in his law school class at SMU. Great guy, smart, and genuine.

I don't know what happened with Hunton, but after speaking with a few clerks from the Summer 07 associate class, it is probably better he left them anyway. Not a good work environment and dishonest to the summer associate class.

Go Jeremy!

Yummy yummy.
Smart and gorgeous.

Keep taking your shots at him. . .I'm enjoying reading the sissy sniping. :) As for the show, I enjoy watching his abs. . .now if they'd just give me more. . .

Well, if this isn't cute. All you jealous people, just like the other guys on the bachelorette. Most of those guys
are so jealous of him it is ridiculous. But, hooray for Deanna, she keeps sending them home. She's weeding out the pompous jerks who can only talk bad about Jeremy. So sad we can't do the same to all
of you who are green with envy of JEREMY!!!!!!!!!

Hate to ruin it for those who love Jeremy, but I happen to know from personal experience that he's not all that nice! He dated my best friend, and was a complete jerk. Makes me sick watching him act like such an angel...don't buy it ladies, he's there for the money alone and the contestants on this show get paid A LOT to be there! I know for a fact he has tried to date my friend again since returning from the show, so if he is the last man standing, he's an even bigger jerk than I thought. If there is any truth to this show whatsoever, my vote would be on Jason who seems the most real.

Here's a spoiler - Jeremy showed up at a friend's birthday party in Dallas and begged his ex-girlfriend to take him back...with her date standing next to her. Ouch.

Jeremy is smokin' hot.
Sure makes me wish I still lived in Tyler.

Those who insult Jeremy on here are pathetic, jealous men who will NEVER look as hot as Jeremy. I fell in lust with him the minute I saw him on the first show, before he was ever given a rose!!! He is absolutely gorgeous and has the personality to match his looks! I'd date him in a heartbeat (but I'm already taken :)
Hang in there Jeremy, you're beautiful!!

4:02 - The only begging Jeremy did that night was begging "your friend" not to cry because she has gained so much weight!! He can do soooo much better, and has done soooo much better than "your friend".

What idiot law firm would let someone go when they are about to put the firm on the map with all the screaming women who will be chasing him? Too bad he's not a divorce lawyer. What an awesome marketing move! Hunton & Williams missed the boat!

from Houston Texas

It alarms me that everyone on here can be so catty. I find it more credible that these guys "vied" to get to know Deanna, rather than just wanting to get on television. Maybe Jeremy (and others) recognized something unique in this young lady.

Maybe there is still some trust and belief in these men, that doesn't seem apparent to any posters!

From South Florida
I wish there were guys here like Jeremy. I think he was genuine in his feelings. If he did try to get back with an ex, who cares. He is human after all. I know what it is like to be hurt by someone you care about. He probably turned to his ex b/c he was already comfortable w/ her and needed that familiarity. The dating world is harsh. I empathize with Jeremy.

He seems like such a great guy! DeAnna is missing out for sure!! You all should just leave him be. He should be the next Bachelor!!

Clearly whoever is saying that they think Jeremy is a douche bag and a loser???? should take a look at themselves... What ever happened to giving everything to find love. Clearly the guy is lost and lonely. Stop being so judge mental and take a step back for once. Everyone deserves a fair shot at being happy and love... and i commend him for trying... why do you get pleasure out of someone elses misery? maybe the douche bag is staring you back in the mirror!

Let's nominate Jeremy to be the next "Bachelor" !

Yes, I want Jeremy A. to be the next Bachelor.

I farted.

BLAH! You are all just too jealous of a successful, caring and good looking man that he is! You just wish you all resembled him just a teeny tiny bit!
GET A LIFE!

Please make Jeremy Anderson the next bachelor. I want to be able to see his fine self on TV some moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Jeremy fell in love with stupid Deana, but she was blind. i think she totaly jipped jeremy off . soo he desurves a chance considering he deana ripped out his heart and stomped it on the ground.

go jason :)

DeAnna is so phony. She has about as much depth as a cookie tray! She did Jeremy a favor by not choosing him. He IS smokin' HOT, intellegent, sensitive, and caring. She knows he will get tired of her self-centeredness quickly. Dallas is an amazing American city. Jeremy deserves a doctor or a lawyer or a professor, NOT someone as declasse as DeAnna! (I'm available!)

I'm in love with Jeremy. That is all.

Given what I saw on the show, Jeremy is going to be fine in the dating department. DeAnna was clearly not the one for him, in any way. I'm sure he'll start to realize that once he has some time to reflect. Jeremy, go get your career back on track and the rest will fall into place. Stay away from becoming the Bachelor - you'll have a much better chance of finding TRUE love on your own.
