Keeping track of the 4:05 p.m. games on CBS through NFL Sunday Ticket's DirecTV Supercast on my computer, both Buffalo-St. Louis and San Diego-Oakland are on pace to actually end on time. We'll see if this holds.

The fourth quarter of both games are dragging after multiple scores. At this pace, both games will run over by five minutes or so. I'm still monitoring off my computer so you don't have to. :lol: :lol:

Once the games are over, I'll let you know.

San Diego going for a field goal to take the lead right now. It's good. San Diego leads. If San Diego can hold, the game could .... could end on time. Buffalo-St. Louis will run over 7 p.m. That's definite.

That does not apply to what I see on FOX, where they are having a post-game show right now. Perhaps that is not classified in your lexicon as a "regional 4pm game".

Phil, from the end zone: You will be leaving on a race around the world. Eleven legs. At each, a pitstop. Eight are elimination legs. First clue is in the envelope atop your luggage, atop the stairs behind me. You can soon run up the stadium to your bags, read clues, jump into cars. First team to cross the finish line after 11 legs wins $1 million.

Ready?

The world is waiting for you.

Good luck!

Travel safe.

Post by: mswood on September 28, 2008, 07:15:23 PM
Nick/Starr driving 1st
Terence/Sarah in 2nd
No traffic either on freeways or side streets

American flight, United flight; teams discuss which would be the better choice.

Fratboys - one of 'em worked in the airline industry. So they think they know best.

Anita/Arthur seem to be bringing up the rear. They don't seem to be too worked up about it.  

Terence/Sarah were the only team to take backstreets - used to the area so they think they know fastest way.

A couple of teams pass each other at high speed on the freeway.

Andrew/Dan don't want to be passed.

Aja is telling Ty to take the carpool lane. "Trust me it's much quicker!"

Ken/Tina going in 1st now, but passed by Aja/Ty now in 1st
Aja was right!
She gives Ty directions to the parking area of the airport.
Aja/Ty first on the shuttle
Three other teams quickly board the next shuttles
It's a bottleneck heading in to the airport on shuttles

First inside the terminal, Aja/Ty
She's concerned she doesn't see a TAR flag anywhere.
There is a marked entrance to the counter.
Mark/Bill, Ken/Tina find it firsst, Terence/Sarah next
Are Aja/Ty at the right counter? Or the wrong one?
Anyway ... They're the first teams.

Here comes a huge group of teams.
The airport is now full of running Racers
They dash in and out of each other's paths, toward the queue.
Huffing, puffing ...
Andrew/Dan "like idiots" went to the wrong counter.
Hippies bringing up the rear for real.

I'm missing a lot because it's moving so fast!
Ken/Tina 2nd on American flight. Terence/Sarah 3rd
Nick/Starr 4th set of seats American flight
Aja/Ty managed to get 5th set of seats
Several teams give up and go to United
Ty finds out from the clerk that their flight supposedly arrives 3 hours ahead of United.
Frats are told: Sorry guys, it's full.
Toni/Dallas behind them dejected.
The other teams had already gone to the United counter.

COMMERCIAL.

Post by: mswood on September 28, 2008, 07:25:31 PM
First flight arrives first, but only by about 90 minutes, versus the scheduled 3 hours.
So teams realize they must hurry.

CLUE, Mark/Bill: Become a barista, old school style.
Phil: Teams must wheel a traditional vending cart to Praca De Se, for their next clue.

The gay divorcees have an unconvincing confessional about how they'll do what it takes to win or summat.

Terence/Sarah and Nick/Starr, followed by Ken/Tina, all getting Barista clues.
Things fall off carts in the city's cobblestone streets. Of course, the items must be put back on the long carts.
So somebody has to take charge of keeping items ON!
Ken/Tina running through streets without a bump.
Aja/Ty in 5th begin cart push

The counter counts ... Terence/Sarah, CLUE
Go by taxi to the 1910 Mililtary Base.
Phil: They'll spend the night under mosquito tents, sign in for 3 morning departure times, 9:00 am, 9:30 or 9:45.

First, Terence/Sarah kiss the mililtary dude and get a 9 am departure.
Nick/Starr get 9:00

Aja/Ty finish pushing cart in 5th

Bill/Mark get 3rd departure at 9:00

Second flight arrives in Salvador on time.

(If I hear "RAPIDO" one more time I'll scream.   )

Lovely confessional Anthony/Stephanie in which she does all the talking about marriage and children. You should see the look in his face.   

Kelly/Christy, 6th pushing carts.
Frats don't know how to push properly.

Ken/Tina get the last 9:00 am departure.

At the base, Aja/Ty don't like their 9:30 am departure, the first team to NOT get a 9 am departure

Items hit the cobblestones and cause delay ...

Night ...
Teams chow down, give confessionals, socialize, talk about the next day.
Terence mad at Sarah for "being engaged with them" - he wanted to have her all to himself!

First group
Terence/S
Nick/Starr
Mark/Bill
Ken/Tina

Last group -
Tony/Dallas
Hippies
Mrissa/Brooke
Anthony/Stephanie



CLUE, Terence/Sarah: Travel by taxi to Pelorinho
Phil: It's this area of town.
It's hard to find a taxi where they are. They have to forage out and about for directions to find taxis.

Ken has borrowed Charla's whistle and has no problem using it obnoxiously  

In the taxi, Terrence is still bitching out Sarah for socializing.

Sarah runs off and leaves Terrence.
T: Sarah, stay! I would really appreciate you not leaving me!
 

Inside a building, not the clue building

Terrence/Sarah, DETOUR
Phil: Two ways of getting where you're going
Hard way up, Escanderia del paso. Make a spiritual pledge by climbing the entire stone staircase on hands and knees. Answer the mystery question at the top, for the next clue. If the answer is wrong, walk back and start the task again!
Soft way down, make way to outdoor elevator. Climb down precarious cargo net 240 feet below. Only 2 teams can be at the cargo net at the same time.

Ken/Tina close behind in 2nd
Teams scramble for taxis
Ken/Tina get one first

Frats suffer miserably climbing stairs in the hot sun on their hands and knees.
Aja looks down and dreads the cargo net.
Ty talks her down.
Drummers play nearby, a rhythmic beat.

Atop the stairs, man: How many steps have you climbed?

Man: Try again.

mswood, I think it may be Nick and Starr that ally with Ken and Tina. In one of the taxi rides, they debated the desirability of hooking up with "mom and dad" and again ono the cargo netting they talked about Ken and Tina as "mom and dad". I expect that they pursued that at the pitstop where Ken and Tina came in behind them in 2nd place.

I have a new topic for all to think about. It is alliances and how they impact an Amazing Race. My raw material really comes from Amazing Race Asia 3 ep. 3 in the coins task, but it applies to AR13 as well since some teams are forming them.

I think that the sharing of a result like the coins order in the tray by Bernie/Henry when they left should not be allowed to be shared. Part of the fun of an Amazing Race is to have teams forced to deal with unusual situations. if they can have an alliance partner provide them with an instant answer, it is much less interesting for us viewers. I definitely feel that any physical challenges should involve no helping by other teams. The one that comes to mind is Uchenna in London helping Meredith and Gretchen with a heavy boat shell. What do you think?
Title: Re: EP1 discussion and updates
Post by: apskip on September 30, 2008, 05:15:47 PM
While I am on my soapbox, let's go for the daily double. This one is about speeding in car driving tasks on the Amazing Race. There has been a history of going way over the speed limit in all Amazing Races and in all Amazing Race Asias. The only time I can recall that a team was given major punishment was in New Zealand between Dunedin and Queenstown in ARA1 to Andy driving about 50 km/hour above the limit. An even better example is Rob Mariano in AR7 on the way to thte San Juan Airport. He started well behind Uchenna, but finished slihgtly ahead. How did this happen? Simple, he broke the speed limit.  In AR13 ep.1 I saw Ken Greene be the worst of the many speeders. I don't know how fast he was going, but probably in the neighborhood of 80 mph. The local police will be able to catch and ticket almost nobody, so that has not worked. Enforcement should be the responsibility of the sound-man on the 2 person camera/sound team that accompanies all teams. If they were required to assure that no team goes over the speed limit, then the dangerous high-speed driving that we observe will almost diasppear.

What do you think?
I in general disagree and I think a good example would be All Stars, when Mary gave Charla (as Joyce gave it to Ian as well)the correct answer to the roadblock clue in the 2nd episode.  I always liked that (in the season 7 example) that Uchenna couldn't carry Meredith's boat).  My ideal for alliances is Tyler & JAmes and Rob & Kimberly.  They didn't give help on tasks, but they helped each other in navigation, flights, and plans of attacks.

Now some would be harder to stop, say a task was like the follow a seat of clues to get to the next clue (AR 2, in Australia), clearly without even saying anything one team could simply follow the other , and thus by pass the need to ask locals themselves or to figure out the clues and how to get their.

But in general, I do agree on tasks it should be one teams efforts.

Here's a preview of the episode 1 recap.

Quote
Then there's Terence. He's jealous that Sarah is mingling with the other teams. She's a very lovely woman and seems to be quite independent minded. He, on the other hand, is a very clingy woman wanting Sarah to hold him, to brush his hair and pick bugs from his back. Come on, guy! Be a man! And you can see from this screengrab that she can't believe that he's acting this way.

Fwiw, the address I get for O Rei do Pernil is 32 Rua Conselheiro Saraiva in the Comercio district, which puts it two blocks down and one block over from the funicular.

Trust me Ken I understand, When I started mine I keep referring to them as Nathan & Jennifer, and I use the phrase Jen's Bitch face..

Maybe I will get off my ass and finish it. 

This week I was so stupid.  Right after I posted this week's game, my internet was shut off, some idiot forgot to pay the bill.  So when my access came back up I focused on other stuff.

Understandable, mswood. Sometimes life stuff takes precedence over the race. How I don't know, but it does.
