Most Hated Team?

Hating Dave/Connor for CBS over-promoting their cancer survivor status is a good example. Believe me, that was not their own personal focus during the race, but it was one of the reasons they were casted, their "race persona" and CBS certainly made them give enough soundbites on that. But hate the edit, not the teams. :tup:

Racers make the content so you can't blame everything on production. Any annoying/offensive/awful thing they do is still something THEY, the RACERS did, and Production only shows what they do.
georgiapeach:
That is WAY naïve to think. Producers will sit there asking questions until the racers give them the soundbite they want. And THEN that soundbite might be put OUT OF CONTEXT into another situation entirely...and there is not a thing a racer can do.
This was VERY common in the early seasons. You can often see that the lips are hidden or just plain do not match what is being said. Yes, racers actions can be shown as well...but you need to remember that the slant those actions are given (or NOT given) is solely up to production. There are many many ways to present the same action...

(:;) : To be honest, the most hated team in Season 20 was Art & JJ, they don't care about Bopper's daughter (which I want them to win in 24, but didn't won :( ) , they gave them not enough money for Bopper's daughter in Leg 4, those team don't wan't and don't care of Bopper & Mark to win the race; because Bopper's daughter isn't well.
(:;) : I wish I could just slapped Art & JJ on the face. :hammer ... I mean they should have get the money back from Bopper & Mark if they don't want them to win the Race (because of Bopper's daughter) :furious: .
Marionete:
How is Art & JJ not volunteering to hand Mopper the million something important?
Keepcopz:
I know it's not really kind act of them. But this is not charity race? It's anyone game to win.
