You just don't get it, do you? Until you can wrap your head around the fact that THERE IS NO HATE FOR RACHEL, that some of us merely find her childish and irritating, then there is no possibility of having a rational discussion with you.
And please note that it is you who insists on giving derogatory labels to certain teams and people - demonstrating the very "hate" for them that you find so distasteful when you imagine it directed at Rachel.

How on earth do you figure that?

Very simple. The focus is already on Rachel, people know her and are interested (like or dislike). Vanessa however is completely unknown, so a way to get camera time is obviously to try and antagonize Rachel and get a reaction. Even on Facebook after the show Vanessa is still doing the same things. Very few people on the race itself who saw things first hand even support Vanessa, the only people who do seem to be are those on the outside who think she is 'hot' (though I think she is overrated there anyway) or just like her as she dislikes Rachel.

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.

Wow, the star of the star of Tar20(??)... She probably would not have gotten past Episode 2 if it wasn't for Mark giving her the answer at the RB. In addition, Brendon was also forever having to calm and comfort her and talk her through her breakdowns. You must have been a superfan of Flo as well, she contributed just as much (air time).
While Rachel is a strong, motivated person, as well as a strong competitor, her personality is so overbearing and 'in your face!' that it turns many people off. "We're not here to make friends.... NObody come between me and MY million dollars!" She is a poor winner in so many ways and is an even poorer loser. I'd bet you'd have seen a lot more of the BB 'YAY... <sob>... YAY... <sob>' if they actually had 24/7 coverage of her the entire race.

Your explanation makes a lot of sense; I see where you're coming from now. Thanks.
