I detest non elimination legs.

No whining, no crying? They are the biggest crybabies, He cries every other episode. He cried tonight.

..and everybody was talking crap about the Texans, see how nice they were to the girls? I'm glad it was non-elimination

Go team Texas!

I hope the Green team girl twists her ankle and can't run!

I'll give him a pass tonight, he's Jewish.

The dorky Green Team is still out in front but we know the dreaded U-Turn is lingering. Might be the tipping point for them AND not often is there two non-elim legs in a row. Now or never or else they'll likely be a part of the Finale.

They don't bug me as much since they survived being in everyone's target.

By my count, three of the last four episodes have been non-elimination. That's too much.

They have their place, but this season it seems like a lot already.

One can tell that this isn't that great a season because here we are, it's been over for ninety minutes on the West Coast, and this is the first post about it.

The Alabama mom is looking increasingly like Tammy Fae Bakker to me, though fortunately she's not behaving like her. The paparazzi are insufferable. I won't miss the Texbrodudes; every season has a pair of them, seems like, and they're usually handsome but dumb. If Herman Munster or whoever he is doesn't jicky the game pretty soon, the green team is going to reach the finish line two years ahead of everyone else.

That gesture last week of working with the cheerleaders and then letting them go to the mat first may have cost the Texans the race. Tanner finished the roadblock in 4th place. If they hadn't had to do the roadblock again, they still might have gotten to the u turn after the reporters, but if they had gotten through the detour quickly, they might have avoided the u turn. I was happy to see them go, though. People from Texas can always use a little humility.

Funny how the Green Team though the paparazzi were lying about the cheerleaders having u turned them. I guess the cheerleaders had demonstrated more credibility than the paparazzi up to that point (unjustifiably).

The Green Team arrived at the laundry roadblock in last (6th) place (although all the teams were close then), and Diana finished 3rd. They arrived at the blessing in 3rd but arrived at the detour 1st. Diana's quick wash job and their finding the detour quickly gave them the boost they needed to stay in from to the pit stop.

Team Alabama was on the wrong side of the river looking for Moonlight Garden. Editing made it look like they barely got to the pit stop ahead of the Texans, but that could just have been to make it look more dramatic.

I don't remember them ever not having a separate speed bump task. It seems lazy on the part of production to have used the roadblock as a speed bump. I wonder of they decided to save the Texans last week with a nonelimination leg and then had to come up with a speed bump that they weren't prepared for.

Sort of an unfair speed bump. First time that I've noticed one that took so long to complete.

I missed last night - I was travelling for work.


Can someone tell me who was sent home?


Was there a U-Turn? If so, who did it to who?

The newscasters u-turned the Texbrodudes, and it may not have mattered because they were pretty far behind from the speed bump. They might have come in last even without the u-turn.
