The Amazing Race – Season 10 – Episode 9
This week, not a lot to say. Honestly, I’m having a hard time getting real excited about the teams that are left in the race. Some are okay and some I don’t like. Nobody is as good as the Bowling Moms or Hippies of seasons gone by. Nobody is as annoying or fun to dislike as Charla and Myrna or the Frat Boys of old. Well, at least we’ve always got Phil!
This week’s rundown:
THIS WEEK – ongoing… in the lead
LAST WEEK – 2nd, arrived at 3:08pm
Ex-Addict Models (Tyler & James) – Running a solid race and ending the leg in first place. Right now it’s a game of hopscotch between the Models and the Queens.
THIS WEEK – ongoing… in second
LAST WEEK – 1st, arrived at 2:56pm
Beauty Queens (Dustin & Kandice) – Hmm… The only negative I can see is that *they* really think they have this race sewn up. Over confidence might cost them.
THIS WEEK – ongoing… with the Cho’s for third
LAST WEEK – 5th, arrived at 3:55pm
Moms (Lyn & Karlyn) – Truthfully, I don’t know if the Chos or the Moms are really in front for third place. I chose the Moms because the Chos have been *way* too nice and consistently let everyone pass them. Why would it be any different now? The Moms blatantly cut in front of *EVERYONE* – locals and Chos alike – in the taxi line at one point in the show. Does it make me like them? No. Does it make me think they are cut-throat enough to win at all costs? Yes.
THIS WEEK – ongoing… with the Mom’s for third
LAST WEEK – 4th, arrived at 3:24pm
Erwin & Godwin – The Cho’s summed it up for me this week after they watched the Moms barge in front of them and several locals to take a taxi. “Being polite sucks sometimes.” Well, Chos… it’s going to suck times a million (dollar prize) for you two at this rate.
THIS WEEK – ongoing… running in last
LAST WEEK – 3rd, arrived at 3:14pm
Rob & Kimberly – The strangest thing happened this week. My girlfriend and I were both rooting for Rob & Kimberly. When they came into the challenge after the Moms and the Chos (bicycling a mile down into a mine) we just didn’t want the Moms to get out first and we wanted the Cho boys to perhaps start getting a little worried and question their “6-pack minus 2” strategy.
Who got kicked off?
Nobody yet! Tune in next week…
