Phil's in town...  Spotted at AI last night! The Stars Were Out But the celebrities did come! Ladies and gentleman, Mrs. Vanna White of Wheel of Fortune took a spot in the front row, and Ryan couldn’t resist telling her, at one point, that he needed to buy a vowel. Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, Amazing Race host Phil Keoghan, and fashion designer and Project Runway judge Michael Kors were also in the crowd. http://tvwatch.people.com/2008/04/02/tuesdays-idol-what-you-didnt-see-4/There was also a rumor that he was at DWTS's? Anyone know anything about that?

I think Jeff Probst was the only person at DWTS; no sign of Keoghan.

TheScandinavian... I believe Michael was being facetious, no doubt based on Boston being a decoy starting line. It would be impractical to have a Boston starting line as it would be the day of the Boston Marathon. That is, unless they use the marathon to slow traffic enough to prevent teams from getting early flights

The start day for the Boston Marathon would be a perfect day for the AR13 teams and crews to blend in with the many runners, coaches and spectators leaving Boston Logan International Airport late in the afternoon for flights to wherever in Europe. They won't be flying nonstop to NewZealand or the Far East from Boston. The race takes 2 hours 9 minutes for the fastest men and about 5 hours for the slowest. The important thing to know is that the Boston Marathon Association is running buses from Boston back to Hopkinton from 1pm to 5pm.
I agree with those who think the starting city will be Boston and further I think the date will be the Patriot's Day celebration of April 21.

Actually zach, we don't know that the start date is that marathon day at all. We have a job application that suggests 4/7 to 4/21 as a likely window for the start date, so it could be anytime. And could that application even be a red herring deliberately placed to throw us off the track? Prob not, but we have to look at all sides.
I think that knowing that Phil is already in LA may mean an earlier start date that we had thought--perhaps 4/10-4/17 even.
We also can't say that Boston is NOT the start city. We would like not to believe it because WRP used it as a decoy city last time (or else they planned to use it and then had a last minute change). There were a huge amount of Boston false leads out there last season, so Boston is a bit of a red flag to us right now.
Having said that, we will be looking at Boston just as we are other cities as a possible start line.

I can only say that it is perfect to use a city, there was used as a decoy city last season. Season 13 opening line "I'M STANDING HIGH ABOVE THE CITY OF BOSTON...where 11 TEAMS OF TWO ARE ABOUT TO EMBARK ON A RACE AROUND THE WORLD" Said by Phil.
It is gonna be Boston!!

God forbid  If for some strange reason TPTB selected them for TAR13, it would be the end of TAR. But it just won't happen. If it does it would be the end for me.

An interesting list, but I am pretty sure that TAR13 will be heading to South America this time since the continent was completely ignored on TAR12. Still a lot of places they have not been to in Central and South America: Belize, Guatamala, Surinam, Devil's Island (that would be an interesting stop), Manaus and Recife on the Amazon.

When they stoop to this, it's a sure sign that van Munster and Doganieri have lost their marbles(anyone who has watched Oprah's Big Give may already have thought of that). I am repeating myself, but if BB retreads make it into the Amazing Race, it's time to start watching something else and go Cold Turkey on whatever AR is running and all future ARs. I hope the right World Race Productions people are listening.

I would also hate 2 see Big Brother contestants on TAR and The Scandinavian... you are getting waaay ahead of yourself sheesh!!
HOWEVER: Boston would be a good starting line and,
The Scandinavian just a few Questions as raised by Peach: - How did you get Beacon Hill as the starting line and where? - How do you know there will be 13 teams

I would prefer no other reality tv stars thank you. But I would still probably watch. Though the last Big Brother racer was on a team that in its first two episodes was worse then Jonathan & Victoria in their first two episodes, and I absolutely loathed them. So please no Big Brother cast ever again.

I hope Bertram does not include anymore reality tv stars. Enough is enough.

, I would die just die *swoon* Healthy and refreshed, Seymour targets ’08. Exactly 50 days later, most of the players voluntarily — and I use the word loosely — found themselves back at Gillette Stadium for the start of the team’s offseason training program. If only Britney could turn it around that fast. However, not everyone was there on Day 1, including budding stamp collector Randy Moss and continent-hopping Tom Brady, who apparently is auditioning for “The Amazing Race.”
