Re: The Amazing Race 25

The wrestlers have some real LOL moments. "How do I bend a nail?"

I also like how they aren't afraid to admit to their mental shortcomings. I think they are one of few bright spots in the show so far this season.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

I think the wrestlers are my favorite team so far.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

Wrestlers doing better than I thought, though I actually thought Brooke would be much better than she's been on the show so far, seeing how she's easily the moth athletic female on the race(and maybe even one of/if not the,most athletic female in amazing race history).

Would've been better if she had a smarter partner than Robbie though lol.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

Overall things still not that interesting, though really think it's the Dentists season to lose at this point. Cyclists have been competitive too, but Dentists are the ones winning everything. Not to mention they still have the save, which they probably won't even have to use.

Though the surfers might sneak into a top position again real soon cause sooner or later they'll obviously use the express pass(since it's pointless to just hang on to it),even if it's at the final leg possible to use it, and it'd push them to the top.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

How stupid is it to have a Fast Forward about surfing when you have 2 professional surfers in the race? Nothing against the 2 of them but that is pretty unfair!

I agree they had a huge advantage, but I can't remember the last time two teams actually competed for the FF and it made for some rather compelling TV. FFs lately have been so easy that once a team gets to one, they quite often win it with minimal effort. Since both teams were strong possibilities to be U-turned, they both had to take the risk. All of the competitions are predetermined way before they start the race, but I hope the FF was decided upon before they knew they were going to have a surfing couple competing.

I can't wait for this season to be over...one of the more boring races in a while. For the most part, everyone is buddy-buddy with each other and there hasn't been much drama lately. Hopefully getting closer and closer to the end will make for some more eventful episodes...the FF competition and the conflict between the wrestlers and the scientists made for an interesting leg and hopefully the drama continues to the end.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

Is it me or are the scientists, specifically the white one, one of the nerdiest girls in the world?

I can't stop laughing when she tries to run or do anything athletic. lol

Re: The Amazing Race 25

It was funny when the scientists were doing the massage, it sounded like they were being tortured. The wrestlers showed up and were thoroughly enjoying it for the most part. The white scientist could barely run afterwards it was hilarious.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

The white scientist has a leg injury. A few episodes back, she said before the competition began she trained way too hard and the physical exertion throughout the competition has wrecked her leg.

With that said, it was extremely funny to see all the massage workers laughing and making fun of them. I still don't understand what the "cupping" is supposed to do besides leave welts on your body...I think in the preview for this week's episode, I saw the wrestler still has marks on his back from it.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

I liked the cyclists, I was hoping that they'd stick around. I thought they had a shot when the wrestler lied to the scientists about the clue.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

The scientist had a leg injury which is the explanation for the whole running thing. And the wrestlers could handle that massage cause they're used to things like that. Getting massages, having their body go through lots of pain and stuff on a regular basis.

I don't care who it is, how does that massage not hurt. ESPECIALLY the scraping part. Look what it did to their backs! Looks like someone just got attacked by a bear or something. Their entire backs are bruised/scraped up and everything. At first I thought maybe the scientists just couldn't handle the challenge, but once you see what it actually did to them...don't blame them at all for being in so much pain.

Glad the cyclists are gone though, they got real annoying after awhile. None of the final 4 teams I hate. Still think Dentists are the faves to win though.

And that roadblock with Jim....That has to be one of scariest moments on the race ever. So high up, and one of the only pieces of security just snaps like that and he almost starts dangling from the rope!

Re: The Amazing Race 25

Holy **** at the scientists winning. I definitely didn't see that coming.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

I totally did not expect them to pull it off. Especially since they never won a single leg.

The amazing race is famous for doing this. Remember Flo and Zach. They were about a full day behind, Flo was in full meltdown witch mode throwing temper tantrums. Non elimination every time they came in last. Surprise, they got the fastest cab and won the million $.

I like the Amazing race, but sometimes it seems rigged for shock value.

Re: The Amazing Race 25

I was expecting them to have a speed bump or whatever it is called for being last but I guess they didn't do that. Didn't really want them to win but also wasn't routing for another team.
