1. Did Jet and Cord deserve to win the million?
I'm not sure. I'll reserve that answer until I watch the new season.

2. Would Jet and Cord have won if Dan and Jordan had not upgraded to first class?
Probably not. Upgrade to first class only give you a couple of minute and in the entire leg Dan and Jordan where way ahead of Jet and Cord so they were never able to catch up. Probably too confident.

3. Which team member is stronger?
Cord.

4. Would you like to see the Cowboys return if there was to be another All-Stars?
Yes. I like the way they interact between each other.

5. Do you find Cord's famous saying "Oh my gravy" to be annoying?
Never. I like it

1. Did Jet and Cord deserve to win the million?

I was not their biggest fan but they deserved it for sure!

No due to their struggles at the Virtual task and Dan and Jordan knowing the final memory challenge instantly.

3. Which team member is stronger?

Jet

4. Would you like to see the Cowboys return if there was to be another All-Stars?

I guess they are All-star worthy but i don't like them so no :)

1. Yep.
2. Probably no. I think having to wait for Dan/Jordan at the climbing roadblock was more damaging than exiting with the coach class crowd.
3. They're about equal, I guess.
4. Yes, please.
5. No. Besides, editors probably added this to appear as if he said it more often.

Yes.

2. Would Jet and Cord have won if Dan and Jordan had not upgraded to first class?
We have no way of knowing it... What if they were the ones that upgraded to first class? There's a lot of "what if's"

3. Which team member is stronger?
Both are strong, I think.

4. Would you like to see the Cowboys return if there was to be another All-Stars?
Of course! :D

5. Do you find Cord's famous saying "Oh my gravy" to be annoying?
No, I find it funny :P

1. Did Jet and Cord deserve to win the million? Yes, but only because there was only one deserving team in the Final Six - that being Steve & Allie who were sent home sixth. They were much more deserving than Dan & Jordan.

2. Would Jet and Cord have won if Dan and Jordan had not upgraded to first class? Yes, with ease, because Dan & Jordan were not a very strong team, in my opinion.

3. Which team member is stronger? They're close, but I'd say Jet.

4. Would you like to see the Cowboys return if there was to be another All-Stars? No, TAR16 is the only season in the post All-Stars period that doesn't deserve representation in All-Stars 2.

5. Do you find Cord's famous saying "Oh my gravy" to be annoying? Not really, but it was annoying sometimes.

The odd thing that I've noticed is that the answers to the questions do not coincide with the poll results.
Thanks again to everyone!

It looks like we are pretty divided. 23 for I like and 15 for I don't like so far.

1. Did Jet and Cord deserve to win the million?
No. They are not enough competitive. Have you all seen their last leg?

2. Would Jet and Cord have won if Dan and Jordan had not upgraded to first class?
No.

3. Which team member is stronger?
Dont know who is who. lol

4. Would you like to see the Cowboys return if there was to be another All-Stars?
NNNOOOOO!!! Cant stand them!! If they were in All-Star 2, hope they get eliminated fast (sorry for all cowboys fan).

5. Do you find Cord's famous saying "Oh my gravy" to be annoying?
Yes, but what I find the most annoying with them is when they play the little western music.

1. Did Jet and Cord deserve to win the million?
Yes.
2. Would Jet and Cord have won if Dan and Jordan had not upgraded to first class?
Possibly. The leg was way too linear in design which made relative movement difficult the entire final leg.
3. Which team member is stronger?
Cord.
4. Would you like to see the Cowboys return if there was to be another All-Stars?
Yes. Given the "flawed" approach CBS now takes as to casting, they're one of the better teams of recent seasons.
5. Do you find Cord's famous saying "Oh my gravy" to be annoying?
No. At least it's not one of the seven banned words from the FCC.

I didn't vote in the poll, because I would have phrased my reasons to like them differently from the options given, and I don't like being peigonholed by polls.

Looks like the cowboys get a lot more love than hate after all.  :luvya:

I think it's funny that the promo for TAR18 focused on them so much. TPTB know of their appeal.

I personally think they are funny people and they do have their appeal, as you mentinoed! But I think that the only reason I was cheering for them in TAR16 was because the rest of the cast was even worse than them!

I won't lie - TAR16 is my least favorite one of all -> but the Cowboys were somewhat tolerable in my books! I can understand why people love them, but I can also understand why other people despise them. :mas25

I agree; the TAR 16 cast was not as enjoyable as the previous two seasons, 14 and 15.  Thank you for posting your objective opinion, racer!

Reminder:

Discussion of the promo in the non spoiler boards is fine.

Discussion of the TAR 18 actual cast remains a SPOILER.
RFF's Golden Rule:
Have RESPECT for each other, regardless of opinion. This of course includes no flaming/insulting other users and/or their posts.

Now that we don't have to worry about spoilers I unlocked the voting on this to see what people really think of the cowboys.

I also figured there will be more traffic here now that everyone is watching them on the Race again.

I also have to include this here:

For these same reasons I'm going to change the questions a bit. Here they are:

1. Do Jet and Cord deserve to win the million? They have alternately performed well and really bad; what do you think?

2. Would Jet and Cord have won if Dan and Jordan had not upgraded to first class?

3. Which team member is stronger?

4. Are you glad they have returned for TAR 18?

5. Do they have what it takes to win or will they keep getting stuck?

1. Yeah,definately. They are the best team ever; great people doing one of the most dangerous jobs out there and my favorite !

2. Some people think Cord failed the virtual task. No, he didn't fail. Just took him longer than Dan/Jordan to figure that out. But Jet and Cord are really fast. If Dan/Jordan had not upgraded to first class, definately Jet and Cord would have a good chance to catch up.

3. At first I think Cord is stronger because of the balancing task, then after closely watching the noodle making task , the counting tasks and the drums task (Jet did get that quicker than Cord.) I think Jet is quite strong as well (though ep 1 he struggled with the flags).
So my final answer, they are equally strong !

4. Yeah! I watched season 16 over and over again. That's my favorite season.  I would like to see more season 16 teams though. (Brothers, Detectives, Jeff and Jordan are all great teams) They all get along well with the cowboys. I'm kinda worried. Those teams in 18 will not be so nice to J/C. And they will end up doing everything on their own. (like the flags task)

5. They will survive eventually. But its hard to say if they get u-turned in S18.
