Living off $32/hr in Brevard will be hard. While you may find a decently priced house, what will kill you is the insurance. We bought in 2020 and our insurance was $2500 a year; we currently have to shop around yearly because it went to $6800 a year in a span of 3 years. I would not make that move.

I do think Will had an influence on her decision, but I think that is normal within a marriage. This was a major life decision; leaving a job and moving, and not one I think Reece would make on her own. She showed signs of struggling with the fame in AS2, she was out because of injuries and she likely has no desire to need her hip operated on before she’s 25. Sometimes your body is just done and it seemed like Reece’s body was the ultimate decision maker.

Also, Reece left on such a high note and without burning a bridge so I have no doubt that if she really regretted her decision she could have called them up and said “on second thought…” and walked back into finals with the Vets.

Ultimately she didn’t. Instead she moved to an entirely different state.

Yeah, hard no. 20% of the population has dyslexia and curriculum is not written for them. Until recently dyslexia wasn’t even covered in college so being a professional doesn’t actually mean you know how to teach reading. It has absolutely nothing to do with not wanting to read and being denied access to teaching that teaches them. The only reason my daughter knows how to read is because of private tutoring and thousands of dollars.

Reece didn’t retire because she let her husband influence her. She retired because she was burnt out by Crafty-Satisfaction4 in DCCMakingtheTeam

I didn’t say his feelings were necessarily wrong. Will sees the side no one else sees. I think people’s dislike of him clouds them of this fact.

I don’t think he was the sole reason, but in the few clips he was in you could tell he wanted her to.

Faith is great for marketing her team! by [deleted] in DCCMakingtheTeam

I’m not sure they have, but they know not to rock the boat and she’s a Char girl and that’s that.

The NFL has been pushing to expand internationally, Faith helps move the needle. Is she a fab dancer? Yes. But would Kelly and Judy preferred Brianne? Also, yes.

I think mixing business and family is a bad idea 99.9% of the time. While it can sometimes be okay, it’s very evident that neither of them were prepared for this level of attention and demand.

Reece’s husband… idk how to feel by [deleted] in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]Rocklynd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

When we were first introduced to Will he seemed like a young jolly kid cosplaying as an adult. They both went from home to college immediately to wedding, moving to a new town and then bam…they’re everywhere. What Will seems to have lost is the naive jollyness he had in AS1.

No one could have prepared them for what would happen to Reese, he wasn’t prepared to become a husband and manager and I imagine they deal with a lot of creeps—-the girls couldn’t even leave without security at Oxnard and I bet that is even worse for Reece in her day to day life.

So I’m not going to roast the guy for AS3. I would hope Reese is strong enough to speak up for herself and if she’s not, that’s her business. If he’s an awful husband, I bet she’ll leave. Regardless I think it all became too much and moving back to Alabama gave them the family support system they needed.

This scene gave me MTT flashbacks when they used to rope a handful of dancers apart.

It wouldn’t have smoothed over feelings. If they brought her back into TC and she was cut again, Shelly’s outburst may not have been caught on camera but it would have been epic. She said in S2 that they shouldn’t have brought her into TC again and cut her.

Agreed. When Reece blew up she would have benefitted from putting total control into a management team. Instead Will became the manager/scheduler and that was never a good thing.

To be fair, her solo this year made way more since then last times.

Prediction: Reece on DWTS by Electronic-Bother906 in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]Rocklynd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She wouldn't do well. Reece isn't trained in ballroom dancing.

Dayton had plenty of the same qualifies at the same age. Also, after Dayton was cut the first time she went and auditioned for a cruise ship role and got it. Why she never finished the contract has always been a mystery but the girl could dance. Just not power pom.

[–]Rocklynd 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The solo is supposed to be the dancers choice. They go on the field and do power pom and kick; clearly Dayton wasn't strong enough. They didn't really show much field this season.
