The Amazing Race...Cortjo Report...October 12th

I also sort of like Starr and Nick. So far those are the ones I like to root for. So far I said. That may change. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

How did Aja turn the story around? I didn't see her doing that at all. I don't think Starr needs any help to look bad. She and Nick do that on their own.

The way I saw it ( and I could be wrong, just be gentle when correcting me), is that as Starr and Nick were passing Aja and Co. on the bikes, Aja asked them to U-Turn the divorcees. They said they wouldn't uturn them but begged them to Uturn the divorcees. Now, everyone was passing everyone and you could only see backs, but I really don't think that was Starr talking. Plus, if Starr belived Aja was going to use the Uturn, why would they have had that discussion at the Uturn point? Starr is competitive. But, not nasty. Nick, I have some questions about since last week he promised to help somene and didn't. But, it is a RACE. You're allowed to pass people. You're allowed to get ahead within the rules of the game. I highly doubt Starr threw the bra over the balcony, because as she pointed out, what would be the point? Starr and Nick know you need the other teams other times. I doubt they would be deliberaly malicious to the other teams. Sarah and Terrence started the hate Nick and Starr thing because Starr allegedly ignored Sarah talking to her in the first leg. I think Sarah is out badmouthing and others who aren't as good a racers are going along with it to justify why they are not in the lead. This season has some of the most whining, victimized teams I have ever seen. It almost makes it no fun to watch. I like competition and seeing teams pass each other. This is jsut whine, whine, whine that the other teams are doing better.

Thanks for the update on the last episode. I didn't get to watch it until last night because of all the other tv that my hubby and I watch on Sundays. We Tivo it.

Ahh ok then. I do hope you liked my update of the episode.

I don't think I like the blondes too much either but, I really lost track of everyone this week and wasn't paying enough attention. LOL! As far as Ken and Tina, it might bring them closer right now...until they win the money and she files for divorce and gets half of his half of the winnings. LOL!

Can't wait for the war to go on now that the black girl told the team that almost went that news about almost getting thei names put up..sorry can't remember the names

That would be Starr. Now that I've been thinking about it, she seems to have the biggest beef with the divorcees. Nick tried to smooth things over with them but where was Starr during that conversation? Not that it would have helped any but you would think she would at least try. And who was the one to ask Ty and Aja to U-turn Christy and Kelly? Starr was. It seems she's more out to get them than Nick is. Have to see more to really see if he feels the same as his sister.

I am irritated about Tina and Ken coming in first again too. It does suck that the comic book guys got the penalty which cost them their game but, the rules were made and supposed to be read and, if they just got away with it, it wouldn't have been fair for everyone else. And, I see your question was answered by Reesers! Thank you! I am playing catch up and you have been very helpful! You rock!

Same here. My favorite team is Toni and Dallas also. While I don't think anyone deserves to be cheated on, Tina is really intolerable and he probably sought the silence of someone who wouldn't nag the crap out of him every second of the day.

I meant roadblock, not detour. Sorry!

Same here about not really having a favorite. But, I am really having a hard time keeping everyone straight. I am going to really have to pay attention this week. LOL! I don't mind the frat boys right now but, that could change. Toni and Dallas are under my radar right now so I don't have an opinion about them right now. Terrence and Sarah...well, if they could go right before or after Tina and Ken, that would be cool with me. LOL! That is really about all the opinion I have! LOL!

It seems a common theme that people are starting to cheer for Toni and Dallas. And, no one like Tina and Ken. Or, more to the point, Tina. LOL! I am also having a hard time with everyone's names so, I am right there with you.

The mother/son are Dallas and Toni. And, I sort of thought the same about them being gone weeks ago because from the first episode, she started out really bad. They started the race with her lagging behind everyone running from the start line. Dallas was in the front of the pack. So, to see them still in it is impressive since I thought for sure she was going to drag him down and they would be gone soon.

LOL! I hear ya. I would also rather snap my own neck, stab out my own ear drums, and bang my own head up against a wall no less than 50 times, than hang out with Tina. LOL! Also, you are right that it would be worth the payoff to get rid of her. LOL!

I think you could be right about Nick and Starr being the most hated. At least until they get eliminated and then people will likely start hating Tina and Ken. LOL!

I hear ya Leenie...nice new avatar! I like it! I am struggling to keep my attention on this show this season. It could be better if I would set the laptop aside and just keep my eyes on the TV though. We'll see. It would be fun to see Ken sabotage the game for him and Tina. At some point, he has to get tired of her. I was tired of her in the first episode. How can he put up with her every day? LOL!
