Jobiska October 21, 2015 Share October 21, 2015 Express passed should be used on anything involving animals or puzzles. Keep that in your pocket for everything else! Or exhausting things like those two poker-playing girls tried to do (I don't even remember what they were exactly, but I was exhausted just watching them!) Link to comment
Sayla Vee October 21, 2015 Share October 21, 2015 Or exhausting things like those two poker-playing girls tried to do (I don't even remember what they were exactly, but I was exhausted just watching them!) Was that the golf game in the cold, windy Netherlands? After swimming across the cold waters of a stream? And the other detour was just as bad for them, as I seem to remember that it was one of those carnival thingys - you have to use a mallet hammer to ring the bell at the top of the apparatus. Weren't their names Tiffany and Maria? I was so rooting for Tiffany because Maria either couldn't or wouldn't do anything. 1 Link to comment

ozlsn October 31, 2015 Share October 31, 2015 I still feel like I know very little about a lot of the teams racing because of the whole silly "feud." Me neither. I still can't reliably tell the reporting teams apart. If I need a hashtag to tell me which one is which then editing is not doing their job. Also I don't really have any idea what the actual relationship of about half the team members is. In what world would anyone NOT take the crochet task? It looked very easy. In my world. I suck badly at knitting, crochet, embroidery... ;-) Link to comment
lexington11 November 11, 2015 Share November 11, 2015 I don't respect either of them. I don't believe that setting out to eliminate your rivals is a true part of TAR. For me, it's about racing as best you can, and being better at it than the next guy. This whole conspiracy to eliminate just drags The Amazing Race down the same shitty level as Survivor. team Dumbass gets no respect from me for that reason. Now Justin is a pain in the ass, but that isn't why he gets no respect from me. He's supposed to be a scholar of the game, spouting off pronouncements about how U-Turning never works as a means of getting a team out (when in actual fact it almost always works). No, it's all the "...well, if you want to play dirty..." bullshit. If he's a scholar of the game he should be well aware of the fact that since the U-Turn is (regrettably, IMHO, but never the less) a legitimate part of the game, there is no question of it being "dirty". No, both teams are asshats, and if Phil were to introduce the first ever double-elimination and throw them both out, I'd be quite happy to see it, and the remainder of the race could only be better off as a result. As much as I would love a double elimination of those two teams, it wouldn't be the first time in TAR history that that happened. They had one on 19, where the boyfriends/life partners and the Survivor contestants got Philminated on the same leg. Link to comment
Camera One November 28, 2015 Share November 28, 2015 I've fallen so far behind this season, so now I'm catching up. I want to like Team Texas, but I'm glad their obsession with Justin backfired in their face. I wish they had a little self-realization that if they hadn't been so single-minded and petty, they wouldn't have burned their Express Pass. I don't hate Justin but he is cocky. I don't get why the other teams are all so against him. 1 Link to comment
