(http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7168/6552499535_1bfc07a77d.jpg)

Its a Maradona impersonator! And I'll bet anything that he'll be lining up alongside Phil at the mat!


 :yess:  *fingers-crossed* that he is one of the greeters..!!!

This is the Maradona imitator from the center of Buenos Aires,he is ALWAYS there,everybody takes pictures with him and give him some coins. I have a picture with him,he is famous,years working on that.I lost the picture but i have,for sure  :lol:

I must say that the preview shown for next week is really exciting! I have high expectations for next week! :conf:

As for this episode, the live stream I was watching was breaking up a bit (particularly at the beginning of the episode) so I didn't really see the Detour very well, but I enjoyed the Roadblock! Great task! :)

So sad that Dave & Cherie are out! Such a loveable team! :'(

Joey "Fitness" + Andrew working together to get rid of Dave & Cherie </3

But it is Team Border Patrol who is the only team I don't like. (:;)

That was a fun exit by the clowns but it was probably their time to go. Always pulling for the guidos to go home though. I don't mind border patrol they seem like pretty cool guys.

Yay for Rachel and Dave!! :hearts: (Now don't win the 3rd leg! :ascared)

I did not particularly enjoy this leg. The one thing I absolutely HATE is mid-leg travel.  (:;)
I did like the detour! It showed a lot culture in rural Argentina and their lifestyle!  :hrt:
The roadblock I thought was childish. It was just middle school math. Yes it was frantic, but just counting and dividing. Maybe it is just my terrible thoughts of mid-leg travel.
Plus my favorite team, Dave & Cherie got eliminated,  :'( but I loved their positive attitude!  :hrt:

Rachel and Dave

I have nothing to say about them,except for the fact that i like them winning the first two legs,as i would like as Ernie and Cindy came first in the first two legs last year. Sure,until i found out that Cindy was a ...well,you know (flashback on uturning Bill and Cathi)

Art and JJ

They did very very well,or the detour was easy? Well,they rocked today.

Bopper and Mark

It is just me or i found Jet and Cord a little bit older?  :lol: I like them,and i'm rooting for them,because of their financial condition.

Brandon e Rachel

I hated,but i'm starting to like them. I think they will be very good throughout the race.

Kerri e Stacey

I'm really starting to like them too! Alpha Female team?  :lol3:

Nary and Jamie

No guys,they will never be Nat and Kat.

Vanessa e Ralph

I was cheering for them at the start. But now they just lose the fun for me...or they never had it.

Joey Bitchness e Danny

Alpha Male? Asking the cousins how to build the Panel? OUT!

Elliot and Andrew

Bye.

Dave e Cherie

I loved the end. Maybe Kevin (TAR17) will learn how to be nice now. This was such a good end...remembered me of Rhett and Howie from TARCR2

Cheering for Cousins,Art and JJ , and Bopper and Mark.

As someone who has never seen Brenchel before this race, the Rachel meltdown on this episode (after the RB) gave me Flo vibes! :lol: Flo & Zach is my favourite team ever, so maybe that could be a good thing! :lol:

I did not particularly enjoy this leg. The one thing I absolutely HATE is mid-leg travel.  (:;)

Agreed 100%. It happened way too often on TAR19, so I hope this isn't turning into a new trend... :duno:

The location was kinda bland. So are the tasks. And finally, Nary & Jamie got an airtime. Now only the twins are left unloved by the editors.

I must say that the preview shown for next week is really exciting! I have high expectations for next week! :conf:

As for this episode, the live stream I was watching was breaking up a bit (particularly at the beginning of the episode) so I didn't really see the Detour very well, but I enjoyed the Roadblock! Great task! :)

So sad that Dave & Cherie are out! Such a loveable team! :'(

Joey "Fitness" + Andrew working together to get rid of Dave & Cherie </3

But it is Team Border Patrol who is the only team I don't like. (:;)

any reason a lot of you guys dont like Border Patrol Agents? IDK why? They seem fine to me. So happy the beat Brachael this time. I HATE BRACHAEL!

Just finished watching it on the episode!  Dave and Cherie :'( I wish they could've lasted longer but I loved their exit off the mat!  I'm really not liking Art & JJ after this episode.  I'm glad Nary & Jamie (Federal Agents "Teachers") finally got some more airtime and that both F/F teams survived!  Lucky break with that Bus #2 incident though! 

Brendon & Rachel did not disappointment at all this week!  "You have a booger on your nose"  :lol3:  I can't wait to see this rivalry between Brenchel and the Border Patrol Agents unravel this season!  I also can't wait for the start of this impending Rachel vs. Vanessa feud!

I hope Elliot & Andrew get some more airtime next week, as they're the only team left who's been fairly invisible so far.  They were shown in the preview but things don't seem to look too good for them.

You are completely entitled to your opinion :<3 but I personally find the Border Patrol Agents to come off as quite rude towards (most) other teams and overly competitive. As someone mentioned earlier, they were going to go crazy for coming in second place.

And finally, Nary & Jamie got an airtime.

IKR! :yess:

Art & JJ are the best, big brother team are morons.

Hmmm. Art & JJ seemed to be the morons who couldn't find the location of their task and just lucked into their second place finish because they had randomly chose the task that could be finished much quicker than the boiling water task EVEN WHEN they were too stupid to quickly find the location of the task.

Art and JJ

They did very very well, or the detour was easy?

Bingo! These two doofuses took forever to even find their detour task, but luckily for them it was much quicker than boiling water (which everyone else chose) , so their dumb luck trumped their stupidity.

This race is off to a good start. Almost every time the race visits argentina we get some sort of horse challenge. instead we've gotten empanadas, skydiving, solar panels and the world's largest cattle market, not bad! Next week's Paraguay looks like something we haven't seen before in South America episode - melons, harps, slides and bottle dancing  :hrt:
It looks to be a great episode!

other thoughts from this episode:
- Nary and Jamie got some decent screen time!  :conf:
- the detour was average, i like how the editors included Vanessa's 'we get to give back to the town'   :)
- the Roadblock was good but would've been more fun if there were more people at the market  :jam:
- sadly Andrew and Elliot aren't getting enough screen time, we know there is a good chance they get eliminated next episode, its a shame we didn't see more of them  :gaah:
- i instantly hated Art and J.J., strangely enough they've grown on me and given me a louie and michael vibe, i like them  :tup:
- KERRI AND STACY'S AWESOME ROUTINE AT THE PIT STOP  :hoot:
- im so glad Andrew knew who Maradona was! and the footage of the playing soccer together  :lol:
- i am really liking Vanessa and Ralph, i absolutely LOVE Vanessa's quotes and she seems smart, Ralph isn't bad, he seems like a good teammate and doesn't say stupid things  :hrt:
- 'you have a booger on your nose' - Rachel   :lol3:

Ugh... Rachel was almost unbearable this episode... (It really doesn't help that I know someone who acts exactly like her ALL DAY, EVERY DAY...)

And I'm siding with the Border Patrol Agents on this whole fued thing...

I would not be happy if: a.) I found out that a team from another reality show is on the rece, b.) They already won money, c.) They overtly display a dislike of my profession, d.) Automatically judge my teammate and me because of it.

Just sayin...

So Brendon hated Bopper and Mark huh? Idiot.

What's your source for this supposed "hate" of Mark and Bopper? I've never heard of either  Brenchel or M&B saying anything but good words about each other.

In this clip, it sounds like Brenchel got to know and like Mark and Bopper before they teamed up to help each other with  the cow math...

Is it just me or did the editors make lots of references to Dave and Rachel's Express Pass?

I watched old episodes of Leg 2:
TAR17 Jill and Thomas say they win the Express Pass, and consider using it during the Roadblock
TAR18 Gary and Mallory don't mention it
TAR19 Ernie and Cindy don't mention it until Leg 4/5

I have a feeling these references from the editors are trying to tell us that Dave and Rachel's Pass will be used in either the next or following Leg #SPEC

I don't mind Art/JJ at all really. But I have never disliked teams that were "overly competitive" to other viewers. For instance everyone always griped about the Globetrotters and the slide incident but I thought it was funny.
Teams don't come on the race to smell the roses and give all the other teams a hug :lol: I like nice people but don't knock someone for being serious about the game. Vanessa is that way too and most people like her. I think there is just a thing against strong male teams for no reason.

Some people see them as competitive. I see them as obsessed with and fearful of getting beat by Brendon and Rachel... but then again,  that might just be Art trying to compete with Rachel for the title of biggest drama queen of the season.  :bags

Along with most of you, I found this leg pretty meh.

The main factor was the mid-leg travelling, which was pretty <//////3. I love the fact of a random factor that the bus broke down and put several teams 2 hours behind, but seriously, it sucks to be teams on the second bus. It saved Nary and Jaime, but it killed the clowns. HOWEVER, I believe Nary and Jaime will still beat the clowns because Dave cannot count and ultimately, it seemed like the producer just told the person to award him the clue to save time. It didn't seem like if he don't know Maths, he can get it instantly either.

The Detour was actually quite decent and creative. LOVED the solar panel detour but the other one was just... erm, random? Like seriously... it should have a llama kicking Art and JJ in the ass.

Dave and Cherie missed the first bus by a few moments right? Wonder what would have happened if they actually caught the first bus! The thing about the Roadblock is that I didn't like it when teams work together for a Roadblock task. I mean, if they work together to solve something immensely difficult together like a puzzle clue or some physical tasks... I would have understand. I just HATE HATE HATE it whenever teams just share a SINGLE answer and TADA, they get the clue. There should be lesser tasks like that on the race!

For example, Kerri and Stacey shared with Joey and Danny how to build the system at the Detour/Dave and Rachel showed Dave and Cherie as well.. but they all need to go and do their own one in order to receive their next clue. The Roadblock basically defeats the purpose of a task and this sucks. Sucks real bad.

Not a very good leg IMO... :groan:

TV shows us he solved it. But till the last moments there were no bidders around, no more commotions of bidding going on. He was just practically doing his own maths with no activity around him. It really made me think if he did finish the task or not.

Yep, I really figured they changed his problem to another easier one because there were no cattles anymore when he finally got it. That means there wasn't a "3 minute time-frame" anymore and he had all the time he want to just to solve that question... hmmm, if it's still the same process, I think Phil will need to go to the Roadblock location to eliminate them?

I wasn't there so I can't really say, but my gut tells me that some DETOUR options are designed with a longer transportation option to offset a relatively short task. I think that is what happened here. That means that criticism of Art/JJ for difficulty finding the task site is unwarranted.

That's not the only math skill required for this ROADBLOCK. The selected individual must be able to:
1. Count up to the number of bulls in a pen, maybe about 20 from what I could see
2. Insert that result into the denominator
3. As the numerator, use the total weight from the auctioneer
4. Do the division and report the results (what you said, declive)

There is no advanced math here. It would maybe rate as 4th grade math but the pressure of the situation caused many errors.

The narrative of the episode made it very clear that they were having difficulty finding the task. I saw nothing to suggest otherwise or that criticism of them floundering is unwarranted. The best you could do to give them the benefit of the doubt is say that maybe the edit that they got was a completely made up scenario.

But also calling them idiots for missing one turn is kind of ludicrous and over-the-top.  Having an opinion about a team and sharing it is one thing, but constantly attacking every word they say and action they make is another.  Also, them choosing the 'quicker' Detour wasn't DUMB LUCK, as you called it.  They know their strengths and weaknesses, and they knew that the more physically based task was the better choice for them, and it payed off.

Give me a break! Them choosing the quicker task was absolutely complete dumb luck. If you like this team, that's fine, but don't try to represent their dumb luck as anything other than what it was... a lucky guess, but even  if they somehow did know that their task was more physical and the other one more mental (which seems unlikely from just what the clue said) , their choice would indicate that they recognize that they might not be smart enough to do the mental task, so what you are saying is that they were smart to recognize that they weren't very smart.  :lol:

I figured that the reason they kept looking for the other detour is because they saw all the teams doing the one side. They probably knew that they wouldn't be able to gain much time on the other teams by doing exactly what everyone else was, and so they took a chance that the other side would be faster.
