Thanks Everyone!

I've been so busy with school lately that I haven't had much time to get down and dirty with my detective skills. Luckily, there are a few of you with an interest in figuring out who these guys are as well. You've done a lot of the work for me. Here is a sample of some of the progress made recently:

When you go to buy a shirt, it takes you to Google checkout and there it says the following:

Mormon Bachelor Pad, 801 964-0655, PO Box 58027, Salt Lake City, UT 84103 US

I called that number and it is for a law firm called Bringhurst and Cooper. It is located in Sandy area. Could that be where "Tori" is a receptionist? Someone could call that number and talk to the receptionist and it would all be over.

A lot of this is great information, however, I doubt this is where Tori works for a couple of reason. First of all Tori is gone. No longer in Utah. Secondly, Tori worked for Calvin's dad. Calvin never specified what his dad did for a living, but I didn't get the impression that it was an attorney and this phone number is to an attorneys office. Sam the anti-sarm mentioned that it could be the law firm they hired to represent them. This was mentioned in an email during the whole Abby Warnock craziness. I'll see if I can find it.

Another peace of insightful information came from another commenter:

I called the number and a girl answered named Stacy. She said that it was The Law Office of Cooper and Bringhurst. I asked if Jake was there. She said there was no Jake there. I asked about the Mormon Bachelor Pad, she said that they were clients. I asked if she had met them, she said she had not met them but that I could leave a message with their attorney Mike. I chickened out and hung up when she transferred me. FYI.

Thanks Madison. Since you chickened out, I called today and asked for Mike, since that's what you said. The receptionist said, "Which Mike? Mike Cooper or Mike Bringurst?" That's when I hung up. I guess I'm a chicken, too.

And you can email me at exposembp@gmail.com to tell me about the MBP sighting.

That'll prolly be my next blog post because it sounds pretty intriguing.

Is there any other way to figure this out using the t-shirt route? Like, maybe checking the post office stamp or zip code info... or maybe fingerprinting the envelope or taking a DNA sample from where they licked it? jk

Full Moon and Snow

When Jake did his New Years post about telling Sanders he loved her, he mentioned looking out the window and seeing big snow flakes falling and talking about how beautiful the snow was. Quote: Our conversation stalls when I say, “Look how cool the snow looks in the moonlight.” The flakes were huge, and I’m not sure if it’s a full moon, but it’s a bright one. Lisa says, “Oh my gosh it’s so pretty.”

However, someone left a comment claiming to live in Bountiful and said it didn't snow at all on New Year's Eve. The person leaving the comment said that it was possible that it may have been snowing further up the bench. I decided to do a little research.

According to archived weather websites, the only places in Northern Utah reporting snow flurries (not the big flakes that Jake said) were in Park City and Traverse Mountain in Utah County.

We have a few options.

• The party MBP attended was in Park City or Traverse Mountain and NOT Bountiful.
• There was no snow at all and Jake made it up cause it sounded cool.
• The story Jake was telling happened earlier in December or November when there really WAS snow in Bountiful.

As for the "full moon" Jake mentioned I found this. moon phases This confirms that there was a full moon on New Years eve. So it looks like THAT part was true.

Interesting. Anyone else have any idea? And please don't leave mean comments. There pointless and hurtful.

Thanks.

Slightly Above Average

Are the MBP boys really only 6's or 6.5's like they claim? I think they are. A lot of people have made comments on their blog like, "How do you boys get so many girls if you're only 6's?"

My answer to that is simple. They're hilarious. How many of us girls have written out a list of qualities we want our future husband to have? I have. And guess what is #2 on my list. He must be FUNNY. I think most of us have "funny" or "witty" or "sense of humor" or "makes me laugh" somewhere on our list. If it's so important to us that we put it in our top 3, then why do so many girls doubt that Calvin and Jake can get so many girls because of their personalities?

I think they're average... like they claim. What do you think?

Anonymous Commenter

When MBP posted the blog called "Red Day on the Calendar" about that photographer, Abbie Warnock, it made a lot of people really mad.

So mad in fact, that one anonymous commenter decided to make his own accusation through the comments.

This is what he said:

it will be impossible to stay anonymous. You've already shared way too much info.
I'm sure you are one of these guys or they would know
David Bruce, Brian Early, Jared Kinnard, Joseph Rowley, Michael Rushworth.
If I cared who you were I could look these guys up on facebook and figure it out.

November 18, 2009 12:11 PM

Now, this commenter was SO convinced it was these guys, that he posted this same comment on, like, 10 different posts on the MBP blog.

None of them were deleted by MBP and I have to assume if this commenter was correct, that MBP would have deleted them as fast as they could.

I seem to remember someone making a comment about how they researched who came home from Ireland during the time frame that MBP had claimed. Then this commenter did quite a bit of research to figure out who they were... but now I can't find the comment. Dang... it was good, too.

So the bottom line is, the commenter is sure it's these guys, but I'm not convinced.

Back to square... two.

In Utah

I'm pretty sure they're in Utah and not anywhere else. Here's why. I was reading back through some old posts and comments and stuff and I found something. At the beginning of November, Jake did a post about what they did for Halloween and he said this:

"So then we ended up at this huge Party in Sugarhouse. Seriously, there were like 700 people there. The house was tiny so we just hung out on the lawn. It was so big that guys who were dressed up as cops for Halloween were out directing traffic. Then around midnight, the real cops showed up and that party got shutdown, too."

Then someone left a comment that said:

Danielle said...

My boyfriend and his friend were those crazy guys dressed up as cops directing traffic at the Sugarhouse party. HAHA!!!!

That means that Jake was telling the truth about the party they were at in Sugarhouse. Does that mean they live in Utah? Probably. But maybe Jake has a friend who lives in Utah who went to that party and he told his friends story as his own. Or maybe this Danielle girl is just a fake person that MBP created to vouch for their story.

Why do I think Danielle is fake? Because I just clicked on her name on her comment and it went to a profile for a girl named "Allie" who created her account in November. Well, the comment was made on November 2, 2009, which means Allie/Danielle created her account JUST TO MAKE THAT COMMENT.

Are you getting nervous, yet, MBP? I'm coming for you.

Twitter

Ok. I've been following MBP on Twitter for a while. I wanted to keep an eye on any hints as to their identity.

I noticed someone named Soccerchik or something tell MBP that her friend was dating one of them. When MBP asked how she knew it was one of them, Soccerchik said something like, "Well, because you posted her text conversation word-for-word." Then MBP asked if Soccerchiks friend was in Idaho with her (soccerchick), but Soccerchik said, "No. She's in Provo."

So, if Soccerchik is right and her friend is telling the truth, then that means that MBP is telling the truth when they claim to be in Utah. Some people have guessed that MBP are really living in another state and are just pretending to be in Utah.

Anyone else have any clues that may prove that MBP are in Utah and not anywhere else?

First Off...

For the record I like MBP. I like to read the blog and I think it's funny. I laugh alot. I like it so much, however, that I have this obsession with figuring out who they are. Some people might be mad that I'm trying to expose them cause their afraid they'll stop blogging. I don't think they'll stop blogging if people find out who they are. I think the blog will get better. And more exciting.

So after I started reading MBP a few months ago, I got caught up in the drama just like everyone else. So I started reading from the beginning. I got sucked in like crazy. For a little while I thought it was fake. I was, like, "No way 2 guys are blogging. Seriously." But the further I read the more I started to think they were real.

Then I started to see the comments. People started guessing who they were. Some people even started claiming they KNEW who they were cause of one or two things that they said.

I think that the MBP boys are smart. I think they change a lot of stuff so it doesn't look like it's them.

So I need your help. Help me put together educated guesses as to who they are. I don't want stuff like, "It's Matt and Trevor cause they're Mormon and single and funny." That's dumb. I want you to tell me WHY you think it's Matt and Trevor. Specifics. If we can work together to connect the dots, then we'll be able to figure out who these guys are.

Thanks.
