1. Me, too.
I was sorry to see that elimination. As much as I dislike the U-turn, the Trotters did what they had to. The cowboys have always been a threat to bounce back from being last.

I actually don't mind any of the remaining teams and I don't have a favorite. This is fun now.

2. they had run a really poor race this time
and for whatever reason, probably they were thought of as a threat, they had no one willing to help them. I am amazed at Zeb and Jason this time.

3. piss poor leg design
to put the U-Turn that late in the leg. Insta-doom, really.

I still like the Goths for some reason. They're more amusing than annoying to me.

I don't hate anybody left, which is unique for the Race.

I am, however, disgusted with all the info sharing going on. Race, people.

5. I thought the sharing of info was poor
Nobody shared with the cowboys, though.

Sharing that info is going to come back to bite one of those teams though.

6. Is that after he ate all that cheese?
I love cheese, and I have to be careful because it is fattening. But that fondue was too much. Why didn't they learn anything from the last food challenge, where they had to eat all that heavy food in twelve minutes? LOL!

11. It seems like a million years since
the Globetrotters won this. I almost forgot it happened, with the news about Bin Laden.

10. Your favorite team must be
Zev and Justin.

I am glad they are still in it. I don't have a favorite any more. I like all of these teams, and will be happy with any winner. This has been a great season.

12. Speaking of a misread clue...
one of the biggies is "BY FOOT"! How could they miss that? Make your way by foot, make your way by taxi, you must drive yourselves, travel by bus... these are major parts of the race. Not speaking of the boys but of the pinkies. :)

13. It's what I'd be afraid of if I ran this race
I'd worry that I'd read a clue wrong. I'd make sure both of us read it.

But in the heat of the moment, who knows?

I feel bad they lost because of that but it's all part of the game.

I don't have a favorite in the finale. May the best team win.
