AR2 - Will and Tara get beat my 10 seconds af the Finish Line because Tara can't run like Chris and Alex and loses their lead in a footrace.

Okay, it took a while, because I had to get season one and season two and then find time to watch but I will disagree with you on this one...Will and Tara losing the foot race would have been devastating if Will or Tara were even remotely likeable racers. Neither one of them had even a grain of sense, decency or decorum during this race. Now, I know, it is a competition and a race with a grand prize of 1 million dollars, so one must have some sort of manicalness in them, but, give me a break. Will browbeating Tara and the other competitors every single minute of every single leg and then having the nerve to apologize over and over again only to (television time) minutes later go off again was just east of insane. And Tara doing the same to Will and "fraternizing" with the enemies in just unconscionable. Even may led some to feel that her "tired" run at the end was just a play for Chris and Alex to win. (I had thought that after reading your post and before watching the entire season. I don't believe that now. She was dog tired. But for a million bucks, suck it up!)
As for an elimination that was sad, I would go with Blake and Paige only because in the grand scheme of things they were truly racers who didn't annoy, bitch, badger, condesend or grate on the other racers (and this viewer).

I agree with you about Tara & Wil's elimination not being sad at all! Until Jonathan the Jerk & Victoria came along, this was my least favorite team! I was sad that Blake & Paige were eliminated, but even more sad that Danny & Oswald were.

TARAsia Fan:
Will & Tara were the team that were along with Team Guido, the most hated teams in the first two seasons of the race. Actually, now that I have seen Team Guido in a different light and actually talked to them during All Stars, I'll make Will & Tara the most hated team until Jonathan & Victoria.
I was so happy to see Chris & Alex win. Will was a jerk. Tara wasn't much better. She flirted openly with Alex. Come on. What is that? Tara may be a nice person, but she didn't show in TAR2 and I was so happy she and Will lost. Would have been one of the most undeserving teams to win this side of Zach & Flo.
I'll add Bernie & Henry from this latest season of TARA3. Wasn't expected and was very sad for me.
Jobby:
Tian and Jaree - They just decided to work together and stop bickering. That suck for me.
Nancy and Emily - It could have been the guidos!
Lena and Kristy - Damn those haybales!
Meredith and Gretchen - It was sad to see them go!
Gaghans - :(
Linda and Karen - They tried so hard on the last elimination leg.
It's mostly all female teams for me cause i root for them all the time. LMAO.
