Amazing Race 15: Episode 9 - Discussion
[B]We're Not Meant for the Swamp[/B] Teams travel to Estonia and decipher a message in an ancient brotherhood lair and then slog through the bogs to play a wild muddy game of volleyball, and two teams collide on their race to the pit stop.
Running about 35 minutes late for those of you DVRing.
On time here. Watching it right now. :D
Yeah it was on time for me too.
[QUOTE=Bacchus;138410]On time here. Watching it right now. :D[/QUOTE] Ugggh how is that possible? Don't go throwing any spoilers out there, I think this is one of the only legs where I don't know who goes home (or if anyone does) :D
"I'm not doing it in my underwear." D: She obviously doesn't know what the detour has in store. haha
**** you Andy Rooneyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. I guess I'm gonna have to steer clear of the thread til I see the whole episode.
Andy Rooney is the most boring man in television. Yeah, yeah he's very well respected, I get it. He is just boring!
Is Gary allowed to correct Matt? It seems as though he clearly heard the Trotters say "Pikk Herman Tower GARDEN" while Matt seemed to miss that part...
The Globetrotters can't seriously think that the brothers pushed them off the path. That is just ridiculous and like Big Easy said, he is 6'4' 210 lbs, not exactly the easiest person to turn around and "elbow" off a path that he slipped off right before. I liked them before but c'mon, now you are just looking for a fight to bully someone around. Sad to see Gary and Matt go, I really enjoy them and wish either the Globetrotters or Brian and Erika had been eliminated. Gary was really touching at the pit stop when he was talking about his relationship with Matt. :(

big man! Yeah I knew he was big but didn't really feel like rewinding or looking it up ;) I didn't know they both fell, I thought it was Big Easy both times, ah well...
Did anyone notice that it kept blurring the brother's crotch area? All the fella's in this thread know sometimes your one eyed monster can peek out in your underwear, but only dan was wearing undies, sam was wearing cargo shorts and unless his zipper was down and he was going commando there was no need for it to be blurred. Also, There is no way in **** the brother's pushed them off the track! I don't think anyone can move Big Easy and even if someone did elbow him, he probably wouldn't feel it. I felt bad for the father and son. I liked them and I liked the use of the word Candle-Abra

It makes it MUCH worse than it actually is! There was probably just a bulge (which is a quite normal part of the male anatomy) and they make us think he was swaying in the wind, lol. They do the same thing on Survivor and it drives me crazy.

I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed it and/or got annoyed from it!
[QUOTE=Bacchus;138573] They do the same thing on Survivor and it drives me crazy.[/QUOTE] Most of the time ;)
[QUOTE=molds13;138576]Most of the time ;)[/QUOTE] hahah woops, guess they forgot to blur out Marcus's twig and berries. I know molds was thinking about it non stop- 24/7. get the girl an ice pack!
I really do not like the Globetrotters. They're annoying and acting like little babies! Sam and Dan FTW:D!
I never did like them, but this episode just added a ton of fuel to the fire. Can't imagine how they'd act playing basketball.
It is strange because before the show the host was pushing them as the favorites.
I don't dislike the globetrotters, but I'm not sure I appreciate the way they are playing the game. I'm pulling for the couple now that the father/son are out.
[QUOTE=Bacchus;138708] [B]I'm pulling for the couple[/B] now that the father/son are out.[/QUOTE] Which one? I'm cheering for Meghan and Cheyne, can't say I'm a big fan of Brian and Ericka.
I like Brian and Ericka a lot. Ken and Barbie, er, Meghan and Cheyne are too generic!
[QUOTE=molds13;138709]Which one? I'm cheering for Meghan and Cheyne, can't say I'm a big fan of Brian and Ericka.[/QUOTE] Whoops, I forgot Brain and Ericka were still in it, haha. They'll be gone next week. :D (Although, they have grown on me a bit.)
I hope the globetrotters will go home next week!!!
[QUOTE=Bacchus;138708]I don't dislike the globetrotters, but I'm not sure I appreciate the way they are playing the game.[/QUOTE] I feel this way too. They make me laugh and I enjoy watching them race, but I think their luck in the game and their advantages as athletes have kind of gone to their head. The way they have started to treat other racers or get ahead are beginning to annoy me and make me not want to root for them. My top runners are Megan & Cheyenne and Sam & Dan, although they have to stop with the bickering soon!
[QUOTE=Bacchus;138716]Whoops, I forgot Brain and Ericka were still in it, haha. They'll be gone next week. :D (Although, they have grown on me a bit.)[/QUOTE] Aw, spoilers :(
I like Meghan and Cheyne but I gotta root for Dan and Sam.
[QUOTE=SPK713;138833]Aw, spoilers :([/QUOTE] Not spoilers. Just his wanting of who wants to go :D
