During the part last week when they had to carry baskets on their backs, Amber was telling Rob the easier way to do it, not just yelling at him for being slower or almost dropping it. She helped him do better.
If a couple was on there who were millionaires from something other than another reality show, would people be slamming them as much for being "money hungry"?

I agree with all you wrote - I was one of those who (quietly) was mad that Rob and Amber were getting another chance at a million
but as it is right now, they are doing some smart moves (maybe not so smart that they're doing them *openly*, but at least they're doing what they can to get ahead)
I'd probably slam "the millionaires" on the show as well - I think a lot of those who watch the show watch it because they'd like to see themselves in the contestants' shoes (I know I would!), and may see Amber and Rob as being a team to get "more publicity" for themselves (not saying that that is the case, but maybe some people perceive it in that way). Personally, I'd prefer to see people I've never seen before, so even teams like the ex-POW/beauty queen are pushing it a little
