In reality, I was really glad Joe & Heidi were U-Turned. I hated the way Joe interacted with his wife. Saying, "I'm the team leader" is fine with me, but saying that Heidi should do the Leg 2 Roadblock because it involves her being in the kitchen is pushing it. Then saying "Why would you U-Turn a guy with a busted knee and a wife?" over and over again at Elimination Station made me angry to no end. The way he said it made it seem like he thought of his wife as nothing more than an incumberence, that she was going to slow him down and keep him from winning the Race. I know people give Louie & Michael a hard time for doing it, but I think Joe needed to be taken down a peg.
Okay. Sorry about that. :)
I think it's good that the producers are still finding ways to implement new things into the Race. It keeps the Race from stagnating, and we haven't really seen anything new since TAR12. Express Pass sounds awesome, regardless of what it ends up being. I have yet to meet a twist I didn't like. :tup: (Except the reduction of number of Fast Forwards, but that's not really much of a twist.)

And I know you guys give **** to Brent & Caite but look at it this way. Those bozos are never going to challenge the other teams for first, they were also going to be at the back of the pack. U don't know where Dan & Jordan is. Louie & Mike you can beat them in a footrace (they're too much of coffee and doughnuts). Jet & Cord are beatable, as they showed in Seychelles (they were lucky in Penang but let's not get into there here). That leaves Carol & Brandy to U-turn.
realshowfan:
Who knows what the Express Pass would be? It may just be a replacement name for the Fast Forward.
Slowhatch:
One EP for the first-leg winner? I'd like it better if they handed out EPs to each team at the start, telling them the passes could only be used once: turn it into a wild-card thing.
(Or hand them out to the winner of each leg; I think the teams would appreciate an EP more than a catamaran :lol:)
georgiapeach:
I'd like a wild card Express pass a LOT! And subtract the U-turn and you are back to teams using STRATEGY! Novel idea... :lol:
