Good topic!
I agree with everything except this...

Or maybe its because I just finished watching "Its a Wonderful Life". :cmas19
Jobby:
I also learnt that it's not a matter about all-male or alpha-male or strong dating couple. Many times, it's really dependent on good directions and most importantly team-work. Just look at how well Gary and Mallory did with 3 or 4 2nd places in a row and i can tell you nobody would have expected them to do so well amongst all the other strong teams in their crowd. Of course the alpha-males/all-male teams do have an edge. But looked what happened to Connor and Jonathan without good directions and poor team work. (changing of Detour once one party cannot complete it)

I remember watching Season 6 where they would be on open roads and would pass each other. I'm not saying drive 100 but at least if the speed limit is 40, drive 45.
Joab, Katie and Rachel definitely fit into more than one of those. I included something for everyone except Andie and Jenna.
I like how you all are thinking about other things you have learned from the race. It definitely does open your eyes to places you may have never learned about before. I'm not much of a bowler, except on the Wii but I would love to attempt to play gorodki.

theschnauzers:
The only thing I could add is that teams should keep in mind the consequences of their actions. (Penalties, Falling behind other teams, not paying attention to what's going on unless you want to be eliminated)
That last one applies to several teams this season.
