I'm waiting (but not hopeful) for Jag and brother to come in last in a leg, and see their other side come out when they get afraid they can be eliminated.
I really liked Jag on Big Brother at first. But when he came back into the house, he had a totally ruthless, cut throat attitude that was a complete 180 from the beginning of the game. If Jag is afraid he may lose, he will back stab everyone with glee and not feel bad about it. I'd like viewers see that side of him to get the whole picture.
I'm team Izzy.

And as to Taylor, I feel bad for her. Yes she is annoying with trying to be perfect all the time. That has got to be hard on the soul.
What I feel sorry about for her is being stuck with Kyland. He creeped me out on BB. He was a Svengali to Sarah Beth. And he probably does that to most women. I wouldn't be surprised that he tries to manipulate and control Taylor and we just don't see it because of the edit. She's a tough cookie, but dealing with him must be exhausting, and on the race, she doesn't have any outside support. She must have been counting the days on that race for when she could get away from him.
He's a gas-lighter.

Just to clarify (because regrettably apparently clarification seems necessary), when I used the word spin I wasn’t implying any sort of deliberate malicious intent and I should have phrased it differently.
All I was suggesting was that people’s perspectives can vary based on the personal experiences that they have had or are having at the time or change based on previous impressions.
I’ll use myself as an example. Sometimes when I’m out for a drive I’ll think something like, “Wow! Why is everyone rushing around and driving so fast?”
Then another time I may be out driving and be late for an appointment and I’ll think, “Why is everyone driving so slow?”
Chances are people aren’t driving any differently. Rather, it’s my perspective that is different.
If I see someone helping a person in need, I could think to myself, wow what a nice person to do that. Or I could think to myself, wow that person is just doing that to make himself look good or to make himself feel good.
I find taking a positive view makes my life better.

I’ll add that it’s great to see all the posts here. It’s nice to see people having fun watching the show and discussing it here on the board.

I agree Jimmer about so nice to see people discussing the show more!
I dont know about condescending but I know they bore me and them winning all the time bores me so that makes me root against them lol

People's perspectives change concerning all kinds of things.
Of course, it's anyone's choice to pretend things are all pink and pretty, but it's also a good way to get used. Just sayin'. 
I'm with Grooch, Jag is getting a good edit with things going his way. If they weren't, we may see the BB version of Jag.
And I'm with Pamy too, it's boring.

Ah yes. Having a falsely positive impression of people may be a weakness of mine. So disappointing when it proves to be incorrect.

I also agree with Pamy that the same teams winning all the time is boringly repetitive. Jas and Jag have come in first five times and Tucker and Eric came in first three times and are now eliminated. The only other team to finish first was Natalie and Stephanie and they only finished first because Jag and Jas gave them first.
Of course, it’s not Jas and Jag’s fault that the other teams are so overmatched. It’s a TAR production problem.

I honestly thought Taylor and Kyland would do better since they are good competitors.

Pamy and I are spirit animals of each other.
I also loved this production team humanizing Tucker by showing how caring he was of his brother. Also that he and Rubina still care for each other.
I'm still not buying Taylor and Kyland are a real couple, which I don't actually care if they are or are not, but why bother? There is much more chemistry between Taylor and Joseph, but perhaps it gave Joseph a chance to be closer to his brother, while keeping Taylor in the spotlight as a reality television figure?
