I don't like Leo & Jamal at all. They turned out to be a disappointment, because before the show started ... I thought they'd be a really interesting team ... one of the things I like about race teams. That they're interesting.
But, they're just to egotistical for me. Not to mention sexist. Which probably means they'll win. Or at least do very well. I think it usually takes the obnoxious, hyper-driven, egotistical teams to win. They seem to have the killer instinct that gets them to the end. Every once in a while, someone interesting wins. But, I wish it would happen more often.
Though, at this point in the race, most of the teams I liked have gone. I'm about to reach that point in the race where I have to pick which team to root against, since there's no one to root for.

totally agree. Those 2 annoy me for a lot of reasons.

I am not fond of them either, but I'm not fond of any of the remaining teams. My three favs are gone, so I'm also trying to figure out who to root against, and right now it's the ER Docs. I cannot stand them. Second is Pinky. The rest are kind of bland and I'm not into them at all. At this point in the Race, I usually know the remaining teams and a lot about them, but I still don't recognize a couple of teams because they just don't stand out. I think this season has been disappointing from a team standpoint, but amazing from a locale standpoint.

Why is there so much hate for the ER doctors? And over Pinky, too? What have they done that is so bad?
ER Docs were inept early on, couldn't even read the clues right... and they're doctors. Left a bad taste. They have since improved but I'd stray away from being in an ER they cover.
Jamal and Leo have been nothing short of annoying but it that's their worst sin then I can live with it.
Anyone wondering why Pinky is being fingered as a bad apple hasn't been watching. Either that or they live with another version of Pinky and find it (her behavior) normal.

I beg to differ there. She is so much better than Jonathan from way back when, like season 5 or 6. Pinky mostly just yells. Jonathan would berate his partner to the point she was crying, he'd throw little fits, yell at locals, throw his bag around in tantrums, even basically shoved his (female) partner once. He was one of the worst I've ever seen.

Yeah - I'll never forget that one. That was the first time I ever really saw Phil P'd off. That shove was terrible.
I don't have a problem with the ER doctors and have NO problem if they win. The two teams of two girls can go anytime now. The Afghanimals? I wanted to root for them too - but they just annoy me. I can, however, see them making it pretty far. Pinky is a nightmare. She really is not a nice person - or not being edited to be one. She was the one who made the decision to steal the nice couple's taxi. She also threw it in everyone's face (a tad too much) when they had the Express Pass. I hope the ER doctors can hold on to their EP for awhile, because they are going to need it. I agree with some of you who said they make stupid, time-consuming mistakes.
I don't know why - I think it's the guy part of the equation - but I like that nice couple (can't remember their names) who are engaged. He's a really stand-up guy and treats his finance very nicely given the stressful situations they've been put under. She whines a little too much for me - but he makes up for it. Between this couple and the ER Doctors - that would be my choice for the win.
Pinky's are basically followers - what flights are everyone else getting. You have to hand it to the Afganimals - they at least think outside the box and don't follow everyone else's lead. Points for that.
