I wonder if I'll get the same amount of points as Redwings next week as well...

either this is turning into a nice little competition, or we're cheating off of each other (and not doing too good a job at it, either)  :lol:

You can't cheat, because you can't see other people's answers until after the game closes (unless I'm mistaken).

I don't cheat either. I think it's best to have the predictions be my own, rather than anybody else's.

But I suppose there is always the PM option. :snicker:

It happens at 31:59 they are driving away from the Roadblock and talking about the moral victory of beating Brent & Caite, the other ask who, and the blonde gives her impression of her Iraq speech.

I believe the blonde, Carol, said something like she would consider it a moral victory IF they were to beat Brent and Caite. When the brunette, Brandy, asks, "Brent and Caite?" Carol gives her a brief impression of Caite, the same impression Jordan gave them at the airport in episode 1.  Other than calling them the beauty queen and her boyfriend, how else should these teams explain who Caite is.  Lets not forget she is on the show, younger than the usual age, because she is who she is.  I am so tired of all the hating on Carol and Brandy, in fact most people only refer to them as "the lesbians", not by their names.  How is that any worse than impersonating Caite to clarify who she is?  Carol and Brandy already have 2 huge things against them, they're older than most of the other teams and they are a f/f team.  If they are able to hang on against the younger, stronger, faster teams, I'll be quite impressed!  Its a shame that being intelligent, strong, well spoken women gets no respect, while being young, dumb and blonde wins the TAR popularity contest.  (:;)

Personally, I lost all respect for them for making fun of other teams. That's just plain rude. I mean, you don't judge people on one thing.

Yeah teams never do this.  Oh wait they do it all the time, especially towards the beginning when they don't know each other.  It can be meant both light hearted or it could be mean spirited.

Personally I get more bothered when you can clearly tell its mean spirited, and later in the race when teams have started to actually know each other.

Yeah but they are kind of easy this week.  I mean seriously every time I turned around you've figured out 8 other parts of the episode, it really did leave me with a lot.

ER = Emergency Room (at a hospital), also a long-running US TV series.

How many racers fall during this week's episode...

Shouldn't this have a "None" answer¿?

Oh, and here is another one... It says "Do they drive at any time this week." Well.... since I want to be REALLY nitpicky... that means anytime of the filming week, which means for the next 4-5 legs.
