Whether you like the Weavers or not, I think its pretty clear that had the Linz boy wanted to push Rolly out of the way, it would have been fairly easy for him to do that. The fact that he didn't seems to answer that question for me.

What was with the Weavers saying "Merci" to Ted, when he's clearly anglophone?

No Weaver hate here either. Just cuz I might rip on them (justified, of course!) does NOT mean I HATE THEM!!!

I love curling. Funny, once they got that camera mounted above the circle it became more interesting to watch, even on TV. And it seems like the crowds watching it are always drinking beer so, even better.

I give anyone credit for saying thank you in any language. We've had some teams be pretty rude to cab drivers in the past.

I need that instant replay as well. I was glued to the tv and I couldn't tell what was going on. Came over here and see that you all are having the same problem! My two long-reliable friends on this site: HL and Raen! (Hi to all the familiar names as well as the new ones.

I'm so exited that this is the first Tuesday I am home for the show! But I just about rather wait, read Raen's report while watching the tape....

The Weavers is having wonderful luck right now. Their taxi driver, Ted, not only know the ways around town(unlike Linz's), he's giving tips on doing the "Sliding"!

Thanks, Raen, for spoiling as completely as you do. Your posts are what keep me looking here.

I'm just sorry that the "haters, loathers, dislikers, etc." can't seem to get over it. It sure makes it hard for those of us who are neutral to spend any time here. After all, we have the right to be spoiled too, yet have to wade through all the "hating, loathing, disliking, etc." of the Weavers. I think we can figure out who likes them, who doesn't and who cares one way or the other. Why is it so important to keep at it? (rhetorical question, no need to take up space answering!)

The rolling logs task seems harder than the curling one.

Oh and I'll take a double Costa. ;)

Why would the Bransons want to do the lumber jack task?

huh? there are defenders as well as detractors. read your own posts! skip my name/posts when you read and that might help. i don't see your posts as neutral, as i have always figured you supported the weavers. i support other teams. so be it.

I love that it's okay to take up space complaining about "haters" but not to take up space defending the hate.

Not sure Chy. I wonder if they were worried when they showed up to do the task and nobody else was there.

The Weavers and the Linzes have already finished their curling task.

Wally did a good job on the wheel wagon task last week, maybe the Bransens thought lumberjacking would also show off his talents. He sure looked last week like he'd lost some weight. I was glad he wasn't the "slow" one on his team anymore.

Gah. Back. Linz family finally finds the clue box. They decide to do Roll It. (As did the Weavers)

Bransens get taxi and off on their way. They hophe they are not too far behind other teams.

Weaver team's driver calling for directions and it's on the other side of wherever they are? Not sure but he gets the directions and he's off.

Linz family asks a passerby for directions and they get it as they observe there are a lot of sexy girls (they say babies) around.

Weaver family arrives with their driver giving them instructions on how to do the curling. Basically like shuffleboard on ice. He follows them inside to watch. They try it and overshoot the house? I missed it but they said "darn it"

Linz family arriving now but they also arrive at the wrong rink (like the Weavers did) and not sure what to do...

Bransens now in the passageway and looking for the clue box... they, like hte Linz family, run right by it (it's behind a glass thing).

Oh. Ha, each person on the family has to get a stone into the house. Mother Weaver does it and they move on to Rolly.

Linz family asking someone for directions and getting directions told to their driver.

Bransens go back and find it now. They are going to do the Roll It because none of them are good on ice.

One of the Weaver daughters does it now and so does the other daughter. They are on to Rolly now and he does it easily. Now they must go 26 miles to American Pavilion built for 1967 World Expo. Must climb staircase to 5th floor for clue.

Linz family getting to Arena as the Weavers are off and their driver is getting directions.

Linz family working on their curling now. Alex gets one in...

Bransen family trusting their driver and arrive at the Aboretum, they just need to roll four logs now.They watch the other guys to see how to do it and working on it now.

Weavers on their way. Their driver is a Christian and they say they prayed for the right taxi driver. They are joking around with the driver now.

Linz family has two and three... time for Meghan to do hers now. Bransens get one log at the same time and run off to do the others.

Weavers arriving now and looking for the marked stairs. Linz family gets their last one and are off. Having fun as they do it and they are off. As they race off, they exclaim that they love that sport and could play that all day.

Weaver family feel fortunate to have found Ted and now off and running for the stairs. They are looking for the base of the structure. Still looking for the stairs... they run all the around it and finally find the stairs.

Clue box: Find La Porte J at an industrial park, 6 miles. It's a door with the letter J on it and will get clue now. Back in their taxi now with Ted and off on their way.

Linz family looking at the map and almost there.

Bransens are trying to get their logs done but having some trouble.

I was glad that Wally wasn't the slow one on his team anymore also Mystery. He seems to know more about what's going on with this task also it's just that the girls don't seem really capable of dealing with the logs.
