I used to really like this show. Sadly, this has become more of an Amazing Farce than an Amazing Race. This episode tonight - well DeAngelo nailed it when he told Phil "It sucked". It looked pretty much like the whole thing was scripted to turn out this way, even with Phil at the beginning telling the teams they probably shouldn't be helping each other out (wink,wink!). If this show is to continue, the time has come to penalize teams for this horrible alliance trend that has ruined some of the recent seasons. A race of this nature should be about the strongest teams finishing ahead - not the whimpering, sniveling also-rans ganging up to eliminate the strong teams that they can't compete with. I will NOT be watching the finale of this season as I really don't care which of these teams of losers 'wins'. Get it together Phil (and production company) - you can make this an enjoyable show to watch once again. Till then, I'm OUT.
