'wonder how many of them had an upset stomach after that leg of a race. Sauerkraut and beer ...no way. I can eat sauerkraut and even if I do drink beer....those two combined....not good for your stomach.

Was surprised to hear several of the contestants say they had never drank/ or seldom drink beer. That was a lot of beer for a non drinker to handle!! (Especially after eating that saurkraut!)

I am loving the cowboys more and more. The comment about no longer being in the "Bible belt" was priceless!



I really am pulling for the cowboys!!! Poor Jeff & Jordan, they are so out of their league!

I could have never drank that much beer either! I found myself hoping that none of the racers had an history of battling alcohol abuse. It's such a common problem, but then again maybe that's part of the pre-race questions. I doubt they would deliberately intend to cause a slip up.

The cowboys remain my favorite too. I was distracted during the show though. What caused them to fall back to fourth place?

I'm sure its a pre screening question. They have done challenges before in which they had to drink alcochol. There was another season in which the girl didn't drink at all.. I think they took the penalty.

I was surprised, too, at how many said they had never drank/didn't like the taste of beer. It gives me hope for our society.

I have drunk beer before, but hated it. If I had been forced to do that challenge, I probably would have ended up like that guy who threw up.

That and the detectives. "I've eaten stuff as big as Jett and Cort, so this saurkraut is nothing!"

Yay Detectives . That sauerkraut & beer seemed right up their alley!

Close call for Jeff & Jordan, but I'm not surprised. Jordan is irking me because I don't think she's giving 100%. It's like she's letting Jeff or whomever she's with carry the bulk of responsibility. This isn't BB. If one person goes, the other doesn't stay. They are a team. They both go and Jordan better pull up and show up or they're going to be out of the race.

I guess we're all surprised at the fact that the majority of the racers said that they weren't beer drinkers. In previous races whenever beer came up, most racers were ok with it.

This intersection is something new. I've never seen it in a race before. What do you all think of it? I'm kind of sceptical about splitting up with my partner and teaming with another contestant to meet our partners at a predetermined spot. I'm gonna watch this episode again to get a better understanding of it.

I was watching with my 15 yr old, she commented that she was surprised that so many people were not drinkers. She just started HS and said see that just goes to show you that people just want you to think everyone is out drinking when really they are not.

Wow, there must have been a good gap of time between Brent/Caite and the others, since they were able to go back, get the clue, and still be the 6th team.

I felt bad for Joe/Heidi. I can't believe the detectives u-turned them. With the lead they had, being in the front of the pack, that just wasn't right.

I'm enjoying Jet/Cord, and I like Steve/Allie. I'd like to see those two teams in the top three. Not really pulling for anyone else, though.

I watched most of the show but missed who got eliminated, was it Joe/Heidi?

It was Joe and Heidi, they just could not decode that message. The detetives just had to prove their point with that U-turn because they thought he was being cocky about the knee. I didn't though. I think he was just saying that he thought he was doing pretty good keeping up with everyone considering he had a bad knee. I personally would have U-turned the lesbian ladies because they whine and gripe over every task but then again they possibly aren't seen as much competition. That U Turn was really a good strategy to get rid of a stronger team.

Oh wow at the Detectives , but then again it is a race. I thought their reasoning was shaky tho'. I don't know if I could U-Turn someone, but if I did it would have been a real threat like the Cowboys.

Using the U-turn on Joe and Heide "to take him down a notch" (or whatever they said) was a waste since Joe was already struggling with his knee. U-turning the cowboys or the father/daughter team to get them further behind would have been smarter as they are the stronger teams. Joe and Heidi were a strong team but his knee was slowing them down. The dark haired lesbian has gotten on my nerves from the first show as have the "wimpy brothers". Last night the brothers were particularly bad "I didn't mean run, I meant pretend we were being chased." Then they just let the cowboys pass them on the road.

I thought using the U turn on them was pointless too. Last nights was kind of boring to me.

Sums it up for me. I didn't mind them using the U-Turn, per se, since it is a competition. But for Pete's sake you should think of strategy and use it wisely. Wasting it on Joe just seemed like macho bluster on the detectives' part. It's a shame, because I had liked them.

I felt so sorry for Joe and Heidi. What sort of message was that? "We will prevail, Viva La France" You expect untrained people to understand all that over the sounds of guns and bombs? I thought it was so unfair.

The brothers were cute at first, but now they're getting on my nerve. Never liked the lesbians. And I'm sorry, I like J and J, but clearly this competition is beyond them. I hope they don't function this badly once they have to return to real life.

The brothers are definitely on my nerves.

That model has GOT to go. How do you confuse Joan of ARk with Noah? Then he's like, no Joan was a woman and then she said it again. Ugh.

I'm rooting for the detectives. The lesbians and the brothers are too whiny for me. The models just bicker back and forth. They will be the next to go. Don't know about you, but when one partner does a task the other partner roots for them "I love you baby." That icon tells you how I truly feel. No one says that to me while I'm mowing the yard

You mean your spouse does not tell you they love you over and over while you mow? How sad. My DH does tell me he loves me when I mow the lawn for him.

I wanted the models to be eliminated last night, at least team Big Brother weren't so annoying. They were funny, they didn't argue over everything that went wrong. It looks like more of the same next week, too.

I'm not surprised with Jeff/Jordan, but I liked their attitude after they were "Philimated". How did the Father/Daughter's car get so messed up? Does anybody know? With some people going to the wrong place, it just seemed like a very confusing episode. Also does the other Lesbian do any of the challenges? I'm just saying....
