"Oh Brother!! I love thou!!"

Posted by Amazing_Insider on 10-16-02 at 11:39 PM
I must say that my new favorite team is Oh Brother. They have some witty remarks and keep me rollin everytime I watch them. They acknowledge that they are not the cutest, fastest, or smartest and I LOVE THAT! Also, everyone hates the twins, but these guys made some great points tonight. As much as they make fun of them, they are really alike and in the same boat, the outsiders!! So, go Ken and Gerard and Go twins! Forget all you people who are mad because the twins are better looking than you or faster than you, you're just jealous. They are in the lead now for the second time in a row, so they must be doing something right.
Overall, I want to see Ken and Gerard go all the way and the twins come in second.
However, as hypocritical as this sounds, I can't WAIT for those naggy, annoying legals to get the boot! Sorry, had to say it. But, Michael was right, they are just extra BAGGAGE!! This flight is carry-on only hunnies! So, hit the road.

I like any team that makes an effort to have fun together during the race and the brothers are definetly doing that.

I don't have a team I hope will win yet, but I wouldn't leave unhappy if they did.


"I agree!"

I enjoy Ken & Gerard. And I like the twins more because I dislike the couples that are whining about them. All that whining has made me want to defend the twins. I am hoping the 2 sets of brothers join up and take the couples out of the race. I really think some of those couples who are so obsessed with bashing the twins are going to be passed by the last teams while they are standing around wondering where the twins are instead of doing their roadblock or detour.

We need some laughs on this show and Ken & Gerard are delivering that.

K/G have quickly become my favorite team. They don't take themselves too seriously, they are having fun, and they provide me with entertainment.

I hope they stay around for a while-they are great fun!

I agree with you and think the twins are a fun team to watch. So what if they are having fun during the race. They have plenty of time to be competitive and know when to relax. And you are right that they know who they are and have a certain humility to themselves so far that is refreshing. The "Alliance" teams are laughable with how much they want to beat the twins. What did the twins do to them?

Although I like the twins, and am almost rooting for them due to the "Alliance" against them, I don't know if I want to see another team with two white males between the ages of 25-35 win the race. It would be too similar to AR1 and AR2. They aren't Rob and Brennan or Chris and Alex, but they are close enough.

More than close enough. I could never tell Rob and Brennan apart, same with Chris and Alex. Although they didn't really LOOK like each other, they were always just RobandBrennan and ChrisandAlex, not really distinct persons, and I was never sure which had what name! Now it's easy. DerekandDrew are basically impossible to tell apart, so I don't have to feel stupid.

I have nothing against D&D, and actually think they are entertaining (and YUMMY!)but they are pressed from two white men "I can't tell apart" mold, just like the previous winners. The two of them winning would really turn me off to this show.

We need a Momily-type team to win this one, but there is no one half that likeable this time around!

Boilermaker, quick question about your name. Is that a Purdue boilermaker or not?

K&G are hilarious. I felt bad they fell in the water but I laughed too. They are knowledgeable about traveling like the Guidos without the nasty edge.


"Legals Gone!!"
Posted by Amazing_Insider on 10-23-02 at 11:21 PM
Ha ha!
What did I say? I am so happy the "extra baggage" is gone! They went to harvard, yet can't follow simple directions or even drive without hitting something (or not fall on their faces if a donkey is "driving"), but we all know that they can sure make their hair look cute and have some cute matching outfits! Way to go girls, are you sure you graduated from Harvard or did daddy just pay the Dean off?
P.S. Good job once again to Oh Brother and the Twins.
P.P.S. Hope Aaron and Adrianne got a good scare, maybe they'll cool off w/ making fun of everyone and having their alliances!

Did you see Arianne's smug b!tchy face when Phil was giving the bad new to Heave. I would have slapped her silly. A&A are THE most annoying team ever!

Goodbye Heave. Heather, you have fallen in the trap so many have before you...a ROTTEN partner. Too bad for you.

Was it Arianne who walked into the pub/hotel in Stonehaven and yelled, "Will someone call me a taxi?" I was screaming at the TV, "You're a TAXI!!!" Too bad a good scot wasn't caught on film saying the same. I agree her smug look was revolting, although I couldn't believe that the girls, when they realized their mistake in the taxi, rationalized that they could continue in the taxi and just walk into the checkpoint. Maybe they were exhausted and not thinking clearly, but that was the dumbest move yet in all of the races! In TAR1 and 2, the penalties resulted from racers not realizing their mistake (or giving up as Momily did). Whenever a mistake was found, the racers went back to retrace their steps. That being said, Guns N' Hoses were fortunaate that the manager of the cafe where they were to deliver the Port last refused to sign the chit - otherwise I think that they would have missed that part of the instruction entirely!

Hmmm... you know, I think most of the teams could have been penalized for a technicality. The clue did say WALK after all and most of the teams ended up RUNNING towards the pit stop. Most teams would have been disqualified if it were a walking competition. I thought the clue should have said "Travel to Point B by Foot" instead of "Walk to Point B". Some teams actually prevented themselves from running because the clue explicitly said Walk. Heave just took it to the very extreme by using a taxi.

Phil, during his delivery of the "bad news" at the end of the show, explained that according to the rules that the contestants had been given (presumably before the start of the first leg) "to walk" means by foot - they can run, jog, jump, or skip - and still be "walking"

"RE: Legals Gone!!"
Posted by Amazing_Insider on 10-24-02 at 11:05 PM
Yeah, Phil did say that they were all given the rules fair and square. The girls knew that "walk" meant, but chose to RIDE in a taxi instead! Pretty simple if you ask me. Anyways, about Aaron and Arianne, I really liked them in the beginning and I really liked their audition tape, but they are too focused on "dissing" on everyone else instead of just playing the game. Last night they almost payed for it, so I hope they don't last much longer. But, I must admit, I was happier to see the legals go before them! (I guess it's a female thing, they just made women look bad)

No, Jill was the one who asked someone to call her a taxi in a pub. Coming from her, though, I thought she took care of business...

I think the Heaves were just ready to give up - they may even have figured they'd get a penalty and be near the end. Eve looked in no condition to do any walking. Glad they're gone.

I like Jill&JohnVito - but they lost a couple of points for being so happy to see Aaron.

Speaking of Aaron - he made huge cracks about Ian being the Ugly American, and yet who was the cretin in the middle of the street screaming for help?
