1. Marcus/Armani- You will be at the top of my list as long as you are racing with the remaining teams. Just stop getting lost and ask for dang directions sooner than later!!!

2. Tommy/Andy- Here only because Bill/Cathi are no longer racing.

3. (tie)Sandy/Jeremy- Here because you didn't switch tasks, that would have eliminated you.

3. (tie)Cindy/Ernie- Sometimes she is tolerable and then not. This week, not.

***Bill/Cathi- I really liked this team.

1. Amani/Marcus (1) - Again, I like Amani. Yet, I cannot stand Marcus. Every task does not require a football analogy. It simply doesn't. And, Marcus needs some Ritalin. Chill out dude. You did a donut in the Mustang. It wasn't a Super Bowl win. It was a simple donut. Ugh. Chill out, Marcus. Really. You make me sick. But, I do like Amani!!! One more thing: Why do you two always get lost? C'mon.

2. Andy/Tommy (4) - What a nice leg for these guys. And, what a wonderful blessing winning those Mustangs; customized at that. It's one of the best rewards ever.

3. Jeremy/Sandy (3) - Lets quit and do the other task!?!? What???? There were only 18 waffles. Figure out what you did wrong and save the nervous breakdown for a real challenge. Ugh.

4. Ernie/Cindy (5) – She continues to be an ungrateful and selfish woman.

O-U-T; Out. Bill/Cathi (2) - Nice racers. Too bad they lost. Now, I have to rip them up for a minute. Last time, when I gave them kudos for having nice bodies at their age, I thought they were in their 60's. Bill is ONLY 53??? I take all those nice things I said back. 53 is NOT old. He easliy looks like a 60+ year-old man. I am no longer impressed. And, all this hoopla about them being an old couple means little to me now. 53 is NOT, I repeat NOT, that old.

I'm curious where you got the information that Bill is only 53. The CBS website lists him as being 63 and Cathi as being 62. It also says that Bill is a retired school teacher, 53 seems young for him to be retired (even from teaching).

I'm a couple of years behind Bill and exercise a few times a week, but my physique is nowhere near as good as his. I am very impressed with how well both these people have kept their bodies in shape.

I'll miss having them in the race.

1. Amani/Marcus(6)(5)(7)(5)(1)(1)(1)(3)(1)- Marcus had fun. They need to get better on road travel

2. Andy/Tommy (1)(1)(1)(1)(5)(4)(4)(2)(5)-much better this week. Andy summoned his inner Brandon this week..was Mikayla around?

3. Jeremy Sandy(5)(4)(6)(7)(7)(6)(5)(4)(3)-ok

4. Ernie/Cindy(3)(6)(3)(3)(4)(3)(3)(5)(4)-omg Cindy is annoying. Ernie really needs to grow a set

Philiminated Bill Cathi(8)(3)(5)(6)(3)(2)(2)(1)(2)-sorry to see them go. I didn't realize they were that young either!

Hi!

According to their CBS biographies, Bill is 63 and Cathi is 62.

G

thanks G! that's what age they appear to be (maybe a few years younger)

I certainly hope this is true. I thought they were indeed in their 60's. But, on the show Sunday night, I heard 53.

#1 Andy/Tommy - from almost last to first; the Jesus comments don't bother me - woopee doo - love this team - they're having fun too
#2 Jeremy/Sandy - yup, this team is growing on me.
#3 Amani/Marcus - meh
#4 Ernie/Cindy - can't stand 'em

Phlm'd: Bill/Cathi...waaa...awesome team - loved this team - I almost shed a tear.

1. Snowboarders - snuck back to the top. I agree about the Mustangs possibly being the best pit stop prize I can ever recall. Man, oh, man! I felt bad for Andy, the smart one, having to allow Tommy to do the driving since it required less brain power. I loved that!!! Wonder how Tommy will feel watching that back. The camraderie we see among all the teams this season is actually pretty cool. Seems like all these teams greet each other in a sincere manner and sometimes even make recommendations about how to complete the task.
2. Amani/Marcus - Mostly because of her. Did anybody else see the way she rolled her eyes ever-so-discreetly when he said don't ever let them see you sweat?! I found that hilarious.
3. Jeremy/Sandy - They are hanging in there better than I expected at this point. No recent sniping makes me like them for a while.
4. Ernie/Cindy - I still like Ernie pretty well and sometimes Cindy is okay but she has sunk to the bottom for now.

I did not know Mom and Dad were in their 50s, either. How did the whole world come to believe they were in their 60s?! Still, I enjoyed watching them and will miss their elderly competitive presence.

1)Andy/Tommy (2,1,skipped,1,1,1,1,1,1) - Having fun and doing well. I don't think I'll ever find the competent, well-adjusted teams boring.
2)Amani/Marcus (5,5,s,5,2,5,3,4,3) - Again, doing well and having a good time. The football analogies are getting a little old, though.
3)Ernie/Cindy (1,3,s,3,3,2,4,3,4) - They weren't as bad this week. But I wonder when Ernie will get tired of always feeling the need to prove himself.
4)Jeremy/Sandy (8,7,s,7,7,6,5,5,5) - Why would you want to switch tasks when you were practically done? Good for Sandy standing up to you, at least.

Philiminated: Bill/Cathi (7,6,s,6,5,4,2,2,2) - I would blame the lack of a bunch point, but Andy and Tommy moved up 3 places, so it was possible.

ETA: Explanations

1. Amani/Marcus: Amani is awesome. Marcus has his faults (that whole football-player bravado thing and his refusal to ask for directions) but I still find him endearing. I hope they pull out the win.

2. Jeremy/Sandy: Despite the bickering-couple edit, I've grown to kind of like them. They seem like real people with genuine reactions. They are also probably the least offensive "bickering couple" to ever be on TAR. Sandy seems kind of insecure about her own abilities so it would be nice to see them pull out the win.

3. Ernie/Cindy: I still really like Ernie. When he told Cindy to chill out, he took the words right out of my mouth. I almost wanted them to come in last so I could see her massive breakdown but, like Jeremy and Sandy, I find them real. I wouldn't mind them winning.

4. Andy/Tommy: Alpha-male team combined with obnoxious and annoying public piety makes them the team for me to dislike. I will be rooting for any team to beat them.

1. Amani/Marcus: They have their ups and downs during the Race, but always somehow pull it out so they don't finish last. They get along and communicate well together. Marcus is definitely going for that Super Bowl ring.

2. Andy/Tommy: Apart from the Jesus references, they're fun to watch and are clearly the favorites to win the Race.

3. Ernie/Cindy: The operate fairly well as a team, although they've almost been done in by several major mistakes. Cindy needs to learn to lighten up a bit. She didn't even smile at the mat when they found out they were still in the Race.

4. Jeremy/Sandy: Maybe it's the edit, but they've finally figured out how to work together without sniping at each other about "communication" issues.

Philiminated: Bill/Cathi: I had hoped they would win this season's Race. My favorite team of the season.

The usual weekly recap here!

1 Andy/Tommy
2 Marcus/Armani - Just because they fell behind
3 Jeremy/Sandy - They move up for second
4 Ernie/Cindy - Complaining about always watning to be first.

1. Ernie/Cindy (1) - Still enjoying watching them, their reactions are real

2. Jeremy/Sandy (3) - Finally getting to the top of the pack again, Sandy's improvement on navigation skill surprised me!

3. Andy/Tommy (4) - By default, their win this leg is true and fair

4. Amani/Marcus (5) - By default, they are not really bad but all the others are better. However, I don't like Marcus' reference to football on everything and his loud attitude...

Philiminated - Bill/Cathi (2) - Definitely miss them and hope they can return in All-Stars
