CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2004 Allright. I guess we'll find out what happens if a team YIELDs another team but that team has already passed the YIELD point. I'd assume that either 1) the team pix are taken out as they pass or 2) the team that uses the YIELD is SOL. I'm assuming there's a crew member at the YIELD marker that takes the team photos out as they pass. That's what I figured while I was watching the first episode, anyway. Why the hell are we writing YIELD in ALL CAPS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why the hell are we writing YIELD in ALL CAPS? Because CBS prints it all caps and we're just following along. Yet, we don't write Ant, ANT. OK, no more caps for Yield...

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2004 Best. Finish. EVER. See ya, psycho. And take dickweed with you. On a lighter note, was I the only one who was laughing hysterically when Mirna was trying to talk to the Argentinian gas station guy in Spanish, and then Charla was all "Hey, let me try," and started asking him IN ENGLISH??

LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2004 Everyone would bitchslap Mirna. Hell, Charla too, midget-ness be damned. Man, the Twins didn't even hug! Useless twins. Plus their whining about Chip was retarded. Glad to see psycho Alison gone. She wasn't even hot. Just useless. How about Bob Barron? Vaguely representing this board well.

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2004 Did they ever show the Yield last night? If so, I missed it. I really hope that doesn't play a major part in who gets eliminated and who doesn't. It just seems like a really dick move (© Zach) that doesn't really fit with the show. Of course, with this group of contestants, there seems to be a lot more childish crap going on (see: Bowling Moms telling Jim and Marsha they had to exchange their money), so maybe it'll fit in just fine.

starvenger 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2004 I have to say though, that Jim and Marsha should've known that US dollars will be accepted just about anywhere, because it's easily exchanged. Yield was neither shown nor used. I suppose that this early in the race it's not worth it. And really, I hope that it's never used. I think they should have more FFs than 2 though. And does anyone else think that they'll be available on the non-elimination legs only? Teams are still playing stupid, but it seems that the Fat Boys, while obnoxious, have something resembling a clue. Mirna hugged Phil again, and I swear I could hear Miss Alli of TWoP yell something about a restraining order. Chip and Kim and the Twins again avoided Philimination because another team was dumber. Blind luck will only take you so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slimm44 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 Okay the girl and the midget are absolutely annoying, I cannot belive these two. The little one is really bad, and the taller one is too controlling. She tells her friend not to yell, then she starts screaming her head off, a little hypocritical. I wih they missed the flight instead of the mom and dad couple.

Guest goatfish Report post Posted July 21, 2004 I'm so glad i'm not the only person who hates the midget team. I think that they're hypocritical, seeing as how we always hear Charla talk about how she wants to be recognized as equal to everyone else, and then they'll show taking advantage of her condition to get ahead of everyone else. And Mirna is even worse. Moment of this week was when the brothers drove by and yelled BITCH!!! at them. It's going to be sad when they get eliminated.

LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 Well, they didn't hug, but at least they were wet... I was waiting for the wet hug, but we got screwed once again. Damn Twins. That Colin(?) guy is a total douche. I also loved seeing those fatass brothers suffer too. You think they could find some likable brothers. I find myself disliking every team, cept for Bob Barron and his ho. They're pretty inoffensive. Eh, I think the midget is funny. Midgets are inherently funny, like when she started doing random cartwheels. Just reminds me of an Oompa Loompa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Fett 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 Really dissapointed to see the Dad/Daughter team go, especially the super hot daughter. I also hate the midget team. I've met midgets before that were very nice people. Charla seems to have a chip on her shoulder. She's bitter at everyone that doesn't crawl on their hands and knees to help her because she's disadvantaged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She's bitter at everyone that doesn't crawl on their hands and knees to help her because she's disadvantaged. I hate the cousin more than Charla. Basically, you do whatever you need to do to win the Race (even if it means, say dragging your partner kicking and screaming for the whole Race) so if Charla shuts up about the whole "independence" thing and whining about not getting help, then she's ok by me. Her cousin is dead weight. Apparently she can't start a car or use a gear shifter, never shuts up and whines a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2004 So... who goes next? And will the Twins finally give LPM what he wants, and hug? From the looks of things the Pizza Boys are the most likely candidates to go, but I think that it'll be Chip and Kim... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
