S27: Cindy & Rick

Well, not first.  Still in it after leg one.

 

I like most Asian teams, but I can see myself not liking them too much.  They're already fighting quite a bit too much.  They seemed to panic a fair bit at that Detour when they weren't even last.  But they were fortunate to finish early enough to finish high.

 

Don't see how they passed up Denise & James Earl, though.

Being an Asian male myself, I really want to like this team, but what happened at the Detour makes me feel that this could be the trainwreck team if they make it far, given that both are likely "Type A" personalities.

 

I don't know if I am ready to see a Colin + Joe (from Joe and Heidi from S16) rolled into one person - and that's what Rick could potentially turn into.

There wasn't much attention given to them this week, so I had a feeling that they were safe.  Their only real mistake that I could see was leaving the site of the Roadblock too soon.  Other than that, Cindy did said Roadblock quickly enough, they did the Detour well, and they actually knew to look for the skulls among the lions.

 

The fruit balancing knocked them down, but they were lucky that Jazmine & Danielle made their mistakes.  Seventh place for them.

Well, they're gone.  And I have to point the finger of blame squarely at Rick for it.  He lost time at the Roadblock, then nixed Cindy's idea to get a cab to take to the Ship Detour.  From there, they struggled long enough for every team who arrived later (Tanner & Josh, Logan & Chris, and Denise & James Earl) to pass them up.  Add that to Rick's boneheaded idea to stay on the train making two stops vs. Denise & James Earl's direct train, and it was all over by just a bit.

 

I do wish them well, though, and will sort of miss them.

Also, if you automatically assume that Rotterdam and Amsterdam are the same place, based on no evidence at all, and then pass the Rotterdam train stop even though your clue says "Go to Rotterdam," you deserve to go home. Bye.

Eh, that ultimately didn't hurt them much (though it was cringe-worthy), so I wouldn't ding them too much for it.
