You know what was great about that stunt by the brothers? That Phil couldn't keep a straight face when they got to the mat. He's usually so stoic at that moment. I loved his chuckle!

I never heard that POW guy say the F word. She really didn't have to call him a "dumb redneck" did she?

I think she's been looking for reasons to be upset with him; I think she's been unhappy for awhile and oppurtunity presented itself.

Well that's just great, now Meredith and Gretchen are officially eliminating my favorite teams (which are everyone else still on the show at this point.) Now I really don't like them. Grrrrrrr.... And it's not like they are TRYING to eliminate them ......... they're just lucking in to it.

So what's the concensus on Ron and Kelly? Did he say something to her that we didn't hear (it was edited out) or did she misunderstand him when he said "just chill out." I think it was the latter.

I heard Ron tell her to Chill. She somehow turned it around to him saying shut the F up.

According to ET tonight, he did say something to her. And she was not happy about it. In fact, IIRC, they broke up after the Race.

AFA Lynn... this is not the first time he's made a snarky comment. Seems like most episodes he's made some racist or other negative remark (either to do with people or with the country they are visiting). Lynn is definitely NOT my favorite person.

Finally, I'm really losing interest in this season. I really don't like R&A and I'm sick of watching them. I wish they'd lose and get kicked out. I feel like they are taking all the enjoyment out of this show. For me. (And yes, that's MY opinion, to which I am entitled.)

I never heard or seen him use the F word. I think she's so unhappy with him she's hallucinating and jumping at any reason to be upset with him.

She totally made herself look bad with her comments.

ITA about Rob and Amber, Costa. Imagine if they win, we'll never hear the end of it.

Those of you who have taped/Tivoed tonight's show ....... go back and listen to Ron saying "shut up, I'm doing it as fast as I can" to Kelly. (It's about 35 mins into the show.) It doesn't sound like he's saying it in anger, it's almost like he was explaining things later on and his voice was edited in to make it sound like he was saying it at the time. I mean, it doesn't sound like "SHUT UP! I'M DOIN' IT AS FAST AS I CAN!!!!" It's more like "and then I told her 'shut up, I'm doing it as fast as I can." The tone of his voice doesn't match what he's doing.

Weird.

Yeah, Nick, not that he's never said it, but homeboy says "dang" all the time instead of d*mn (just like any well-bred southern boy would do.) He never seemed angry enough tonight to use the "F" word. But like I said, we didn't get to see everything.

Whoa! I think Kelly really got up on the road side of the bed for this leg. What a disappointment from the girl who is supposed to be such a good role model. I'm shocked at her whinning! Unreal!

Wow … another great show! I can’t believe that the Brian and Greg were that far behind, but this was one of the very few legs that I recall that had no bunch up point, which was kind of refreshing. But still, Lynn and Alex had to get two replacement vehicles and both Uchenna and Joyce and Meredith and Gretchen had to go all the way back to the detour. Hard to believe that they couldn’t catch up. I can’t believe that Meredith and Gretchen are still in this, but they deserve a lot of credit.

IMO Rob and Amber are one of the best, most enjoyable and most entertaining teams in any season of the Amazing Race. I really like Uchenna and Joyce. The rest of the teams are entertaining in their own way.

Too bad Brian and Greg got eliminated but they simply didn’t play well enough to win – it wasn’t like they had any bad luck. They were totally responsible for their loss. Nice guys though.

I kind of think that if Ron had actually said what Kelly says he said, that they would have showed it and beeped it out. From what they’ve shown in the race, he seems like a really decent guy.

I really wish it was Lynn/Alex or Ron/Kelly that got eliminated tonight.for next week. Sorry to see Brian and Greg go. They were very likable guys. Yay ROMBA - you are so much fun to watch.

Every time that Rob and Amber come in first place they get a prize. I think it stinks that they don't always have a prize to give the first place winner.

I nearly peed my pants when Rob thought there was a monkey on the giraffes back.

I heard Ron say "shut up" but I never heard him curse. I guess they could have cut it out though.

I must admit that tho I completely hated the person that Rob seemed to be on Survivor, I really like the Rob and Amber team on AR.

I am completely ticked off that our Sacramento CBS seems to think we are in the Mountain Time Zone, and everything is an hour early. So here, AR and American Idol are on at the same time.

I'm enjoying this season so much -- there are FINALLY people on here who show some respect for their racing partner! With the exception of Ron and Kelly (who seem to despise each other), the others are encouraging to each other during challenges, respectful, loving and just plain nice. It is refreshing NOT to have to listen to people snarking at each other -- now if we can just get some duct tape for Kelly's mouth, we'll be all set.

I have watched every episode this season and there was only one team that did not get a prize. I don't think Rob and Amber are getting special treatment. Correct me if I am mistaken, but I believe all but one first place team got a prize.

I have to give credit to Meredith. That roadblock must have really been physically draining for him at his age, but wow he just kept plugging away. It would have been a shame if they had been elimated because of missing the clue.

I cannot believe the racist comment one of these guys made (I think Lynn) at the carry or milk it roadblock...when U/J decided to carry and these goofballs couldn't one of them said "Well, they were born to do this!" And then the comment @ Meredith and wife being to stupid to make it on the road. Between this and the way they act towards the locals, these guys are the rudist I have ever seen. <el> I really hope they lose next.

Oh yeah, and then what a sore loser <QT> Kelly was tonight. Ron never cursed (I taped and re-watched it) and she just looked for anything to be upset @ him tonight. And then her last little comment to the camera crew @ him constantly telling her what she was doing wrong...give me a break, as it was the total opposite. I truly hope he got rid of her because in my book she is absolutely no beauty queen...just ugly!

well, it sounded racist when lynn and alex said it, but then ucchena and joyce commented almost exactly the same thing a little later about it being them because it was africa.
still not liking rob and amber. i was hoping rob would stall in the riverbed crossing.
i am glad to hear ron and kelly aren't together. what a princess! kelly, i mean...not ron!

the only funny rob part was him telling the goat something about 'big boy'...uh, can you get milk from a male goat? it was funny because it was so stupid.

I have to give credit to Meredith for putting up with Gretchen. That woman NEVER shuts up. The fact that he hasn't freaked out on her is a testament to how patient he is. Either that or, after being married for so many years, he just tunes her out.

Man, she gets on my nerves.

And then the comment @ Meredith and wife being to stupid to make it on the road.

Oh come on, M/G aren't exactly the smartest cookies in the jar. They're always screwing up something. The only reason they are still in this race is because of the accident the brothers had.

Two teams did not get a prize for finishing first -- Lynn/Alex and Ron/Kelly.
