Case even though she's teammates with Brendon you would have to say that Rachel has once again been the dominating of the 2 on the tasks.Even though Brendon has ran marathons and was a swim coach Rachel has been the star of the star of Tar20 along with Mark and Bopper no matter if they win or not.Granted the Boring Rachel and her annoying husband won the majority of the 1st place legs and even if they lose because of a mistake if that's what happens Rachel has done great on the race also without having won a 1st place leg along with Brendon.The haters of theirs will always hate them and not give them their props or Rachel even if it was brenchel who had won all those legs.No matter what place they finish or if they win realty and tv. Watchers need to finally give brenchel/Rachel her due in being a great competeor and realty star.

If your idea of a great reality star is someone who whines and complains, who presents a false front to the camera, who escalates petty comments into full blown quarrels, who has to be consoled by her partner at every turn, and plays the victim every chance she gets - then yes, Rachel R is a great reality star.
But I find it a sad commentary about the viewing audience when those qualities are valued more highly than the quiet resourcefulness, strength, and grace under stress exhibited by Rachel B.
The fact that you find Rachel B. "boring" says far more about you than it does about her.
And once more for the record, no one "hates" Rachel R. This is a term SHE put out there ("Let them drink their Hateorade") so as to be able to play the victim. This is one of the most obvious manipulations she has performed. If you can't see this one, then of course you can't see the other more subtle ones she does.
Alenaveda:
Rachel was the one who began the famous fight at the airport in their way to Tanzania. Brendon and Ralph were talking on a civilized way, until she participated of the discussion ("listen, why don't you both get out of our faces?"), and everything blew up (with some little disinterested help of Art & JJ :lol:).

Huh? How you can work that out from the little snippets they show in the HLs of it all I really don't know, maybe you have some psychic powers. Anyway I think we all know that Vanessa started it at the watermelons. Bopper and Mark have even said Vanessa's main purpose was to prey on 'poor Rachel' (their words).
Rachel Reilly has definitely been one of the stars of the series. Brendon is far from encouraging at times, his lack of sympathy at the head shave was sickening. All the good guys like Rachel and all the bad ones (JJ/Art/Vanessa) don't, it doesn't take a genius to work that out.
Prophet:
I tend to agree that Rachel was not an innocent lamb in that conflict, but Vanessa had plenty to do with it.
Prophet:
So does anyone know if they are at TARCon?
NVM, they aren't.
