PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

What a fine example these two set for Harvard Law School. They did more to tarnish the image of young female lawyers than anything on Ally McBeal or that new piece of garbage FOX put in its place."Walk to the next pitstop..." What part of "walk" includes riding a cab to the front gate of the pitstop and then walking through the front door? Wow, I think I'll call them the next time I need help with contract law, what with their fine understanding of the nuances of language and such. Bye bye, you Reese Witherspoon "Legally Blonde" knockoffs. You will not be missed. Chris

On the other hand, their ability to interpret rules as they see fit gives them a bright future in the legal system of the state of New Jersey.

My only complaint is that the hammer should have been brought down harder. They reread the clue correctly in the car--by not going back and walking, they intentionally chose to disobey the clue--therefore should have been nailed with the 24 hour time penalty instead of the wimpy one that they got. What if Aaron and Ariannae finished an hour behind?

HEY!! hey, you're right. And if they can't make it here, they can join the Florida election board. These reality show contestants need a reality check!

First of all I find it rather rude to be that hard on people you do not know. Second, you are not in this race, they were, so I would think (something you should try)that under the stress of trying to finish, the lack of sleep, and just plain hurry mode, that things get over looked or lost or even forgotten. Like my Mom loves to say to me "oops just had a brain fart". To have a moments lack of good judgement does not mean they are/will be bad lawyers or that they even gave Havard a bad deal. Be real. As for the double A's. They should be the ones to go. The fact that TAR3 gave everyone an equal footing at the end sucked. If they had left it alone the Double A's would be gone. The penalty was fine. The infractions and the price one will pay is listed in the rules book, so that time frame was adequate, to bad the A's weren't futher behind. All I am trying to say Cmaybur is that until you have walked a mile in their shows, keep your comments to that you thought they screwed up, they forgot to engage brain. That they did. But to say that they tarnish the imagine of female lawyers or even their law school was alittle much.

<< Eh, the only thing Cmaybur did wrong was not taking this to the Bashers board. >>I thought of that about 30 seconds after I posted it, but since it dealt with events that took place in last night's episode, I thought it had to go in the Spoiler area. Don't any posts dealing with events in a new episode have to go in the Spoiler area the night of the episode for people who haven't seen it yet, west coast, etc., etc. << (Which I'm sure someone will move eventually) >> If somebody wants to move it, go right ahead. I really enjoyed this more when everything was in one forum. Chris

Chris (cmaybur), I couldn't agree with you more! Are these two for real? What are they, pathetic throwbacks from the days when women believed they had to use their looks and so called feminine charms to get ahead? Not only did they claim this ridiculous approach as their "secret weapon" (check out their bios on cnn site), they also PROUDLY followed through on it (remember eve gloating she shed crocidile tears in the bus station to manipulate the male clerk and getting Andre and Damon to carry their boxes of port?)! The icing on the cake is Heather's empty claims they were just proud they played the game "ethically". Blah, blah, blah. Sounds to me like someone is overcompensating...hmmm..I wonder why? So good riddance Girls, now we can watch the real women play! Anna

couldn't have said it better myself. Seemed like they got a lot of face time whining in the early portion of this ep, so I thought something was up, and once Phil said first team to arrive, you knew they were toast. And then he kept saying "_____ team to arrive" instead of "team # ___". Funny thing is, how did he know already? I mean, if he was inside, did he see them pull up? Anyway, I won't miss their whining at all, but I thought it was dumb that with the equalizer there was a mile and a half run to the pit stop.Side note - why doesn't anyone try to pay off the "competition" at the roadblocks? Give the shooter $20 to kick it right at you...(ping pong in TAR1, etc.) -cb

Warning: if the whole thread doesn't get moved to bashers, at least this post should.As a female lawyer, I gotta say these two really were lacking in the "representin'" part of the game. Why can't the producers, for once, put a bright law chick who has her sh!t together on one of these reality shows? Instead, we get Heave and Stacy. Doh! What part of "walk to the pitstop" didn't they understand? If they really had played by the "ethics and morality" they claimed to, they would've gone back at the point they realized they should have walked and walked. It would have been a better way to go out. Actually, their first mistake was in not reading the clue fully before they hitched a cab. Any good lawyer knows you read the directions completely before you do anything! Ah, well, maybe they have a career future in the Clinton school of law.

I thought when they re-read the clue in the cab, they would tell the driver to take them back to the stadium so they could walk. I can understand being tired and stressed and mis-reading the clue, but to deliberately continue with a rules violation after realizing what they had done? By the way, I think the production crew probably has some two-way communications they use to keep the staff at the pitstop updated as to what is going on. And didn't Phil look very unkempt at the pitstop? He probably just arrived from Scotland after eliminating Dandy. Seems like this was probably the leg where he didn't get any down time going from one pitstop to the next.

13. "Oops!" |
LAST EDITED ON 10-24-02 AT 04:16 PM (EST)Sorry -- no one started an "East Coast Spoiler Thread" last night, which is where all these posts should go prior to midnight. If none of the mods are around, would one of you regulars start such a thread around 9:15 east coast time (EDT/EST)? Three thoughts: 1. cmaybur put this in the right forum because of the time, but it should have gone in the "omnibus" "East Coast Spoiler Thread" -- except there wasn't one. 2. ulalame, I didn't know you were also a lawyer. Welcome to the SB law firm with myself, shakes, Dalton, diamond and katem (plus a few others, but I can't remember them all!). What type of law do you practice? 3. Oh, and I'm moving this to Bashers. Yeah, I think the HLS people who go on reality TV shows don't do much to enhance the image of my alma mater (remember Nick from Survivor: The Australian Outback?). At least Stacey Stillman and Kathryn Price didn't go to Harvard.
