I am rooting for Danny and Oswald and have from the beginning too. Sweet men and so respectful to all even in the heat of things.

I think they will win. The final leg will show both sets of best friends in a close race for first.

I love how Danny and Oswald play this game. They seem to be having such and great time and experiencing more than the other teams. They are also showing that they have experience travelling and it is helping them. I got nervous when they went to the travel agent though instead of straight to the airport....what if they missed a quicker flight while they were out shopping? I guess they know more about international flights than I do!

These guys are great! They are having fun and not stressing out too much. But, I am worried for them next week - they were the only team not mentioned in the preview. Is that good or bad? I hope good.

Jewels, they had already called the airline and had a standby on a flight before they went to the travel agent, but I was also holding my breath for them.. I'm glad they got to shop; too much fun!!

And at least I guessed right about the cologne :)

Oh, you're right Sea...I had forgotten about them making the phone call, that's why they went to that man's house...what was I thinking? I stressed for nothing!

Can anyone 'splain to me how they got the name Team Cha cha cha? I heard it last night for the first time and today on this thread I saw it - but any checking back I've done doesn't say. Thanks

Danny sounds just like Ricky Ricardo sometimes!!! Especially when he say"I feel so butch!" These two blew me away last night! I think it's just hilarious the other teams have NO idea how hard these two are really working to play this game. They have smarts charm,and creativity!!!

I'm with you Squaredsc, I've loved Oswald and Danny from the start. They are the only team that doesn't constantly turn on each other and other teams. They always have a good attitude and put each other above just winning. I think they are great role models for "reality tv"; that you don't have to compromise yourself to win. I hope they WIN!!!!

I'm SO glad tonight wasn't an elimnation round!!! I hope Danny & Oswald's luck holds out next week and they make it to the final three.

I was cracking up when they bungy jumped and Oswald said, "I was screaming like a WOman!"

Then when he was working the sheep, it was hilarious. He kept saying "Come on, honey" and stuff like that and then speaking to them in Spanish, too.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...

I love Danny & Oswald!!

My favorite D/O line this time was when they were still driving but looked up to see the gondola swaying over the gorge, one of them said (paraphrased) "You don't see things like this in Miami".. just very quietly.

These two are great, so laid back and "in-the-moment"... They go a long way to offset the "Ugly American tourist" stereotype.

But then again, with their accents, they don't sound American, so there goes that theory.

Never mind.

Sure they do.. this is a country of differences..

I always note that when I go to international events where there are national teams. The US often has the most diverse team.. like in gymnastics you can easily tell the Chinese team, the Japanese team, Romanians, Russians, not that they are identical but they are more similar.. whereas our team will have anglo, black, hispanic and asian "looks". Figure skating is this way as well.

Same with accents, at least in my area, you will find accents galore since we have a very large hispanic population as well as a very large asian population.

But, I agree, Danny and Oswald might not be tagged as "American" as quickly as Blake and Paige, but they are. They can represent me anytime.

Come on now, the most excited I've seen these guys is when they took time out of the game to GO SHOPPING! You don't GET more American than that! Gotta love 'em.

Whew! That was a close call Wednesday night!! I hope they got coming in last out of their systems and are ready to rock on the next leg!!

Would you believe that Nashville has 16% foreign born population! Accents and faces of every kind about here!!

I think they're going to make it to the end.
Chris and Alex won't win. The best friends won last time.

Blake and Paige have come in last more times than Tara and wil who seem to stay in a stuck area. Where they don't go any higher or lower in the standings.

But Oswald and Danny have been in 1st 3 times.Which is more then any other team.
That and I think I'd never watch TAR again if anyother team wonneko

I'll miss them..

At least they got to celebrate Oswald's 32nd birthday in relative peace.. in Key West last weekend.. my friends who live there met them. Said really really nice.. Oswald is taller than you'd think, Danny is thinner than you'd think and has gorgeous teeth.

I just loved Oswald's line at the end, "you know this is serious, why else would I ruin a glitter shirt?"

Yep, that's pretty much my life philosopy as well! :) I loved all that pink he had on. Put a big smile on my face.

........ and then I saw Will and Tara's ugly hats and got depressed. :-( LOL!

Sigh, they were my favorites. So "in the moment" and yet good players, excellent sportsmanship.

Seamonkey, how did they get recruited, do you know? Is it a matter of knowing somebody? Explains why they didn't seem quite as motivated as the other teams, if it wasn't something they were actively pursuing.
