I was rooting for Dan and Jordan from the begining, I just never actually expected them to win! Sometimes it's nice to see a team win that didn't dominate most of the season and had to overcome obsticals more than once.
Per the bags: Jet/Cord did a lot worse this season than cutting in line. I believe the only reason they led in leg 2 was because they purposly lied to other teams about the train taking off.

Congratulation dreamboys!

Really that isn't true. When you actually break down the episodes, and don't just look at who check in at first, you can see (and this is all seasons) that who checks in first isn't always who raced the stronger leg.
And frankly as obsessive as this site and its members are we all should be aware of things like that. Just this season Louie & Michael won several legs, yet only one of them did they actually race the fastest leg, and even that had more to do with getting a local to give them accurate directions and and another local to drive them to their location. On the other two, one they raced average, the other they were absolutely terrible.

First, it was a bus not a train! Second, I wouldn't call that lying since they didn't say anything like "Your bus will be here in a few minutes so stay here." They just kept their mouths shut and didn't tell the other teams what valuable information they knew. It's actually a classic race move (Derek/Drew are poster children for this) and there's really nothing bad about it.

OMG, I totally forgot about labeling Dan & Jordan as Team "Keep the Dream Alive 2" :lol:
