The Amazing Race 16!

[Psi U MC Vito]

Wow who would have thought the cowboys would be in the lead.

[SWTXBelle]

I LOVE the cowboys!

[Psi U MC Vito]

I'm starting ot like them because they are really humble and down to earth.

[SWTXBelle]

and I'm hatin' - newly-dating lesbians - they are unnecessarily nasty and rude.
- Miss Jose' - H-O-S-E, who has the nerve to make fun of Miss S.C.

[Psi U MC Vito]

Actually my favorite team would either be the cow boys or the Grand mother/daughter. I love their attitude.

[SWTXBelle]

Yep - kicked in the head, she still keeps going!

eta - Awwwww . . . I'm sad. I'd rather the guidos had been kicked out rather than grandmother/daughter.

[Psi U MC Vito]

I hope this isn't an elimination round.

Just watched it on DVR. Not happy about that episode. The Cowboys are amazing, it seems like luck is on their side. A llama just comes up to them like that? How weird!

They got really lucky. Same with the bus. I love how they didn't tell the others that the bus was at another terminal. It did suck though that they lost most of their lead waiting for the trail to open.

Maybe llamas can sense niceness

I've had just about enough of the "newly dating lesbians" too. They are rude and just plain mean. And, their "alliance" holding their spot in line - COME On!

It looks in the previews like they're going to implode next week, complete with a good old fashioned temper tantrum!

They remind me so strongly of Team Guido from season one that we've started calling them Team Guidette. I can only hope they'll be as magnificently evil as the Guidos were.

Finally got to watch it last night.

Sad for Grandma, but not surprised. It was going to happen sooner rather than later. But I held out hope it would be the idiot detectives (who failed to notice the big ol' sign for the detour) or the brothers, in whom I find no redeeming qualities in.

The cowboys were awesome, and I agree that their ease around animals helped with the llamas and the cow.

I couldn't agree more. Please let them go soon. Did CBS put them on as a Lenten penance for the rest of us?

I was really hoping Miss SC and her boyfriend would beat them to the pit stop and deny them their "moral victory."

ETA: I also meant to ask if I was the only one laughing when Phil talked about the traditional German dish called Kuchen (and the cowboys wondering what it was and saying it was sort of like pie). Kuchen is nothing but German for "cake" -- a traditional German dish called cake. Heh.

[LionTamer]

If they really are working cowboys, then they're used to handling animals, and animals can probably sense their ease. Also, they can spot an animal that's easy to handle, vs one that's going to be tougher.

I was thinking about the buses as well as the llama when I thought about their luck. I also think that things were a little less chaotic when they first showed up. They didn't try to chase one, they waited until one came to them and it was so much quieter that the llamas were less stressed too. Besides, in being first, they got the friendly, calm llama!

This episode was so lame, especially the detour. Come on TAR, jumping off a pier and swimming 10 feet to the clue? You can do better.
