Originally Posted By Rsey103 I like the a capella guys too. I've only heard them sing on the race once...
Originally Posted By Terminus I think they've sung in both episodes so far in cabs ... I really like the chinese father guy. I feel really bad for him, though. He seems old to be on the race. (I know other old people have done well, but he seems extra old.) I'm rooting for him anyway. Seems like a nice guy.

Originally Posted By Rsey103 I was sorry to see Michael and Kevin go last week. Who will be eliminated tonight?
Originally Posted By Rsey103 Chad and Stephanie slept in, missing their start time. Not only did they catch up with the other teams, but they managed to get engaged and finish first along the way. So perfect, you would think that it was scripted. I assume this is the first time a team's relationship status has changed mid-Race.
Originally Posted By gadzuux I'm with Dabob - I can't find a team that I can get behind. The 'punk rocker' guy is just obnoxious, so I can hope for them to lose. I didn't care for the chinese dad - I liked his son enough, but dad was kind of brainless. Doesn't matter - they're already gone. I don't care for the Home Shopping hostesses - too vacuous for my tastes. The father/daughter team that went home this week never seemed to connect. I suppose I'm rooting for the two docs, but I can't get very excited about them - it's like cheering on IBM. TAR has always been one of my favorite shows, but this season seems kind of flat and less interesting - probably the cast.
