I'm excited!! Also a bit stunned to have two people (different teams) from my town, Fountain Valley, and several from the next town, Huntington Beach!! Clearly they recruited in Orange County!

LOVE the banner, Jimmer!!

Re team #1: I could never have dated anyone who took longer to put on their makeup than I do and I don't wear any most of the time. LOL

I'm so excited! I can't wait for the race to start!

Woohoo!! A bit of a young crew, but some very interesting characters. Yup, Roxip -- I thought the same thing about Guy #8 -- most gals know the best type of best friend to have is a gay guy who will tell you how your butt REALLY looks in those jeans! :-) (and I thank heavens for him! :-) )

Pamy - I think their names would be pronounced like Kint and Vixen. Just a guess...

My DH is thanking CBS for this fabulous birthday present! I had asked him how he wanted to celebrate on Sunday and then I got to this thread and said, "Never mind." He looked at me kinda strangely and then I showed him the news and the teams. His response? Yaaaaaay!! Coming from a man who never watched reality TV until last fall, that's over the moon excitement.

Give them a few episodes, Pamy, and I'm sure that's how I'll be pronouncing it, LOL. I'm sure they'll be the team I love to hate.

LOL @ Tess. You know you have a good man when he will watch TAR on Sunday nights with you.

Yeah I do, Roxip, but he was sort of forced into the reality tv thing. He's had 8 surgeries in the past 2-1/2 years, the latest one being less than 2 weeks ago. He's been stuck at home with me so much that he's gotten used to watching what I watch while he works from bed. He even bought me a flat screen tv so we could see the shows in HD!! The other day he asked me to make a weekly calendar of the "must see" tv shows so he doesn't miss any.

I'm sorry he has been stuck at home, but at least he seems to be getting into the VERY IMPORTANT stuff...like good reality television!

Tess, hugs for your DH. You could order him a Survivor buff for his birthday...he could wear it for the show! My late BIL and his wife had Seattle Seahawk jackets and they would wear them for each game...while sitting at home on the couch. God bless him. Almost 2 years and we miss him.

Yeah, I think a Survivor buff would be an excellent idea. Does he have a birthday coming up?

Random question...

Are Kate and Pat married to each other? (I am not trying to cause drama, just wondering.)

They don't usually get the 'married' billing when they're each married to someone else, Ms. Bull. My guess is, yup. :-)

Yay!!!! I'm so glad there is no alpha male group this season. I've got the brother/sister team representing the 504. I like them on paper, I hope they don't disappoint me.

Nov 4th, Juju. He's still a baby. He's turning 42.

Roxip, yes he's finally showing some good sense. Since our daughter arrived 10 years ago, he'd reverted to his childhood and watched stuff like Scooby Doo while I watched all the intellectual shows like BB, etc by myself. Now he's into any show I watch and he's got opinions galore!

Supergranny, thanks for the excellent gift idea. I honestly hadn't thought of that. You're a genius!

Now to be on topic with the teams for our favorite show, we like teams 3, 5 and 7 the best so far. Of course our opinions are subject to change at any time.....probably several times.

I respectfully withhold any signs of favoritism until at least 10 words have come out of their mouth IN the game -- not on their interview video! :-)

Yay genius Supergranny!!!

Er ... teams ... well, ya gotta love the goths. Who knew there was one of each gender in that duo? Just those who looked close.

Love the married ministers, but let's get serious, folks, aren't they sort of like soccer moms? Gonna be out first or second?

I don't really hate any of the teams at first blush, and I too am glad there aren't any alpha male teams to run away with it.

I'm expecting the married ministers to be out first. I don't know why...they just don't look like they will be tough enough to hang in there. But I could be wrong. These seem to be some pretty competent teams and several of them have done a lot of traveling.
