The Morning After: Love on the Rocks

I'm not really qualified to hold forth on VH1's Rock of Love II, having joined the series for, oh, about the last half-hour of the finale (I won't spoil, don't worry). But it seems like the sort of show that inspires, um, passions, so I'll throw this thread open to your opinions on Bret's choice between Daisy and Ambre. On the one hand, you had Daisy, whose outfit last night set a new bar for the revealing of cleavage on reality TV; on the other hand, you have to give it up for a woman (or her parents) who takes an already-dating-show-perfect name like "Amber" and gilds the lily by reversing the "e" and the "r." (Perhaps the only thing better would be to pronounce it "Am-BRAY.")

I also enjoy how Bret drops the "f" in the title of the show, pronouncing it, repeatedly, "Rock o' Love," as if it were a sandwich at McDonald's. Which in a way it is. So did you Rock o' Love Bret's decision, or did you Rock o' Hate it?
