Amazing Race is back tonight!

Recommended Posts

With 8 teams left, here's who I think will make the final three...

 

The Cowboys

The Les Bos

The Asians

 

The team that could surprise me and make the final three...

 

The Baseball Coach/Daughter

 

After the first episode I didn't think the cowboys would do well with their money mixup, but they've really turned things around these past couple episodes.

Yeah, the cowboys seem to be pulling tricks out of their hats all the time. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I seem to recall one of them ended in LA (or maybe NY?) and they were saying things like, "This is our hometown! No problem here!" And then they lost...

 

Can't remember specifics though...

I think that was a black couple and the final city was NY. I remember they were super confident they were going to win.

That helped narrow it down, used Wikipedia to figure it out, it was season 1, Frank & Margarita, then found the write up below to verify it was them....

 

The Amazing Race: Race to the Finish

The three teams, from Alaska have to travel back to the starting point in New York City where Frank and Margarita live. This worries Rob and Brennan. Frank and Margarita think they have it in the bag

 

This was also the season where the 3rd place team never made it to the Finish, they were so far behind they were still in Alaska. I remember another recent season where teams were leaving for the next leg while others were still finishing the leg before.

Well, one of the three teams I had picked for the final is gone, and the detectives seem to be hitting a groove now. Meanwhile I wonder if the cowboys can work their way back up to the front.

 

I thought for sure Jeff and Jordo were goners....they were lucky that morse code knocked out Joe and his wife. I would love to be on this show!

I'm thinking the fix is in -- CBS loves Jeff/Jordan, so I wouldn't be surprised if they "helped" them. Seemed awfully convenient that there was a non-elimination round there, and then was also awfully convenient that nobody could solve the Morse code...

Maybe it was "convenient" that it was a non-elimination round, but it was so obvious that it was going to be. If they make you pair up with another team to complete a challenge, they almost have to make it a non-elim leg.

 

Also, "convenient" that nobody could solve Morse code? Isn't that a reason ZERO teams selected that option?

 

I just thought it was great that it was a "blind" U-Turn but there was no doubt which team U-Turned them. But overall, that was probably the most boring episode of Amazing Race I have ever seen. Nothing much happened besides each team eating bread and crawling under some barbed wire...twice.

They won't last long regardless...as adorable as Jordo is, she's a total airhead...and Jeff isn't all that much brighter. They do crack me up, though. :wallbash:

I realize it's harder -- but it appeared that they had hours to complete it, surprised that they couldn't figure it out in that amount of time is all.

Unless something drastic happens, I'm thinking the detectives win it all.

 

They weren't my early pick, but I have to agree....they are playing to win. I think it's time for those lesbos to go....when that one was crawling in the mud during the WWI reenactment, she whined like a little baby, saying "this is not what I signed up for!", etc....give me a break! I would have loved to change places with her. If there's one reality show I'd love to go on, it's this one. I wouldn't even care if I won....I just want to do all the activities and see the world

Cowboys crack me up, I hope they win, but they need to get their act together. I like Allie, don't care for her dad. I like Miss Teen, don't care for her boyfriend. The dykes and the Jersey slobs need to GO.

 

While I'm at it, Crystal FTW... I miss Paula, Kara and Ellen are both idiots... WhoTF is voting for MexiGokey, PLEASE get him off my TV... and PLEASE make Siobhan stop screaming, she is hurting my ears.

Bout time someone talked about Idol....we've had some pretty damn fun threads in the past

 

I agree about Crystal....wow, she is good. And that's not just because this season has majorly SUCKED....she's really, really good. MexiGokey... :thumbsup::devil:

 

I'm having dejavu with Lee Dewyze. I remember being shocked when David Cook made the top 12 his year....I just didn't see it. By the middle of the season, I was on the bandwagon. I haven't liked anything Lee has done up until last week. I really enjoyed that song and I'm looking forward to seeing him perform this week. Everyone else? Ugh....Katie is awful....Sioban (da fuk kind of name is that anyway) is sweet but annoying...big Mike is okay....little man is okay...not a fan of the cowboy guy, but he's had a few moments. I dunno, this show just needs to put half these folks out of their misery (and ours) and get it down to Crystal, Lee, and maybe big Mike.

Likewise, I didn't like Lee at all till last week, I have to admit he did fine. Actually, I thought last week was pretty good for most of them, even MexiGokey (he still needs to leave though). Didi was good-looking but horrible, I won't miss her. I can't see anyone beating Crystal.

As much as I love the show, it's very rare that I have much interest in any of their albums. I have a Daughtry album, a burned copy from a friend of one of Carrie's albums, a Kelly Clarkson album and David Cook's. That being said, I'd buy Crystal's album today if she had one out....I love watching her perform.

 

BTW, why can't puff daddy pick a damn name and stick with it?

I had William Hung's CD, sure didn't hold onto that too long, and I've got Breakaway and Since You Been Gone on my Ipod... none of which I paid any money for.

LOL, the hungster! I just picked up a 7th generation iPod....love it! You ever check out the mp3 deals on amazon? Each day they have an album for like $3. I prefer to just buy the CD if it's music I really like, but I just picked up the Them Crooked Vultures mp3 the other day and bought the new daughtry album a couple weeks ago. It's a cheap way to build your music collection.

No, I spend too much on BDs to pay for music... unless it's a music BD. :D

 

Butler, wow! :devil::thumbsup:

As much as I am pulling for West Virginia tonight, I would love to see Butler beat Duke on Monday! :D
