I love Rob and Amber!!!! Appreciation Thread !!
RudyRules:
Thanks for the excellent recap, Gingerman. You are right on the money!
I was LOL...evne clapping...absolutely in awe at Rob's cunning strategy! |#' Rombers are really helping this 7th TAR season AS WELL AS...over all...the entire cast. It is the best since the premier season, IMO.
Very well balanced, charming, interesting, entertaining personalities. I can't think of any team whom I dislike. The only team that grated my nerves a bit was the hillbilly guy team who got philiminated first. Not that I have anything against hillbillies, but their 'lingo' was kinda hard to listen to! Now Tom from S3 Africa was a hillbilly, but I liked him. (most of the time). Just a few times, his talk bugged me.
(^.# Anyways, kudos to whoever picked the cast for TAR7! Love this season's show! }^! })}

You all know I'm torn about Romber. Yes, they're good, and even if you think it isn't fair that they came in first after not completing the Roadblock last leg, they made up the time fair and square. They did luck out that the earlier plane waited for them. We know that doesn't always happen, ex-Survivors or no. I just wish Rob weren't so darned self-satisfied. I suppose he wouldn't be Rob if he were humble.
Ok, back to the appreciation....

It is always interesting to speculate on what the producers leave out during the editing. Last night was a good case in point. Lynn and Alex left the hacienda at 3:49AM and arrived at Cabana La Guatana at 6:00AM. That is a time span of two hours and 11 minutes to drive a total of 25 miles!!! Rob and Amber left at 6:59AM and after "getting lost" still completed the Roadblock at 9:00AM. They must have been speeding. But it gets better. They complete the Roadblock at 9:00AM and drive the 25 miles to the Mendoza airport, park the car, carry their bags into the airport, and check in and still make the 9:30AM flight departure! Rob must have really been racing down the highway! And their luck continues (just as Gus and Kim lucked out by being last at the airport in Canada) since they boarded the airplane in Mendoza LAST, their bags were off loaded FIRST!. And so much for airport security abroad (no check in at least 30 minutes before departure in Mendoza!) Rob and Amber still manage to keep ahead of the crowd; even if the get Yielded later on, I do not think that they can be stopped by the other teams; the other teams are just going to have to do better. Question? Can one team be Yielded by more than one team at the Yield? I know each team can only use the Yield once during the race, but could the other teams all yield Rob and Amber at the same spot? This may be the only way to slow them down!

Guessing the answer is no, since each team has a name tag and I doubt that more than one team could attach their tag to someone already Yielded. The Yield is "courtesy of..." one team.
