I'm not sure if this article has been mentioned before:

Does anyone have access to a copy of the magazine in which it appeared???

...because the ONLINE version only spotlights FIVE TEAMS:

- Oswald & Danny
- Tara & Wil
- Peggy & Claire
- Gary & Dave
- Mary & Peach

I'm wondering why they only did these 5 teams... do they know anything -- below is the article's intro:

Keeping all that in mind -- and really, how can you get that image of messy wet kisses out of your head -- ''Amazing Race 2'' (which kicks out Monday, March 11 at 10 p.m. on CBS) is about as satisfyingly close to the original as one could hope. The production is once again scenic and skillfully edited, putting viewers right in the middle of the action. And the casting -- which was the highlight last time -- is for the most part solid, with teams already at each others' throats just miles into the journey. So let's take a look at some of the more noteworthy -- both good and bad -- squads that will be racing around the world for a cool million bucks.
