It's Time To Stop Calling Jet & Cord Homophobes
Tallguy700:
TAR 24 was rigged for Cancer and Realityrecaps addressed this, not to mention a bunch of people on reality forums from both sides, and it was painfully obvious in the finale of TAR 24. As for TAR 11, I know that wasn't rigged but I have yet to watch that season.

Yes, they were last but not too far behind Country. No U-Turn, gg.

We never saw cabs so yes, but it would be a very long walk, and Country would get tired.

As I've understood it for years now, the only accusation was against Jet and not Cord, and from what I recall about an incident at TARcon 16, Jet was drunk.
None of that justifies calling the team, homophobic, there's never been any evidence that Cord has ever done anything to deserve the label, and it does need to stop. I think some people have tended to project things onto the Cowboys that they don't deserve, and I've had to bite my tongue endless times because those labels IMHO are not appropriate or justified.
To that end, I don't think the Cowboys are boring. They have been a very good racing team whose only apparent weakness was self-navigation at times. But for two guys who have never really traveled outside of the U.S. except on the Race, they've learned and benefited plenty from the experience, and isn't that one of the goals the show places on the teams that Race?
