Ray & Deana are a dating team from Canfield, Ohio and Youngstown, Ohio respectively. Ray is a stockbroker and Deana is a marketing and promotions executive. Their primary motivation for participating in this Race is to put their on-again/off-again relationship to the test and see how they fare. Ray, who is 17 years older than Deana, has worked as a stockbroker for 18 years. A former college and semi-professional football player, Ray describes himself as cocky and admits that he’s never wrong about anything. He enjoys weightlifting, singing and karate. Deana is admittedly just as determined and competitive as her teammate. She grew up camping in the backwoods of Ohio and has never traveled outside the United States. Deana’s favorite hobbies include lifting weights, karate, hunting and fishing. Both admit they are looking for some answers to what the future holds for their relationship and are hoping the Race will provide some. http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race7/teams/ray/

why do I have a bad feeling about this team? Just a gut feeling they may be the "villians" of the season if R/A aren't...

Unless they are totally obnoxious, I will most likely root for this team in the beginning as I am a fellow buckeye....

I am getting unexplained bad vibes from this team. I hope I'm wrong.

well if they are doing this to test their On again/off again relationship, I can pretty much tell them now that it will be sayonara before this race is done. Sounds like Donny and Alison.

I agree Maris. TAR is no place to test a relationship.

He's most likely balding under that bandanna.

I think he'd look good bald, but the bandanna is a bad sign for me.. I have a poor history of liking bandanna wearers.. but we will see. Well I suppose "cocky and admits he's never wrong about anything" isn't a plus in my book.

His facial expression reminds me a bit of Jonathan. Maybe that's where the bad vibes are coming from?

I listened to their video on the CBS site. His words back up your bad vibe Whoami. Sounds like a control freak to me.

Boy this is a harsh crowd. I heard of judging people on their looks, but this takes the cake. He LOOKS like Jonathan; he SOUNDS like Jonathan; therefore he MUST be like Jonathan? Whatever happened to innocent until proven otherwise?

Kep421: Yes, this is prejudice based solely on a picture, but keep in mind, that's all we've got to go on right now. Since this is a speculation thread, that's what we are doing. If this team turns out to be sweet and kind, I will be the first to eat my words, but right now, it's only speculation. I don't really think there is a problem with what we are doing. (We also have their introduction video, which gives us a window into their characters.)

Too bad about that bandanna. When they showed Ray without it, I was surprised to see that he actually was not bald -- and he's rather good looking.

Ray is very competitive, and I can identify with that. But he's got to understand that Deana will have her limitations. She can't keep up with him, and if he keeps harping at her, it will cost them.

What is wrong with Ray? Is it just me, or is making people want to perpetually punch him one of his stronger abilities? ... or maybe it's compassion. Yeah, that's it. Compassion is his strongest quality.
