I am really rooting for Brendon and Rachel as well. I have grown to like her so much compared to when she was on the first season of Big Brother.
I can't take Marie and Luke much longer. I don't know which is more annoying, his tantrums or how she treats him like a 6 year old.
I don't know why but the nightclub challenge was annoying to me last night. It seemed like it went on forever.
I was so glad it was a non-elimination leg. Rachel and Brendon did not deserve to go yet!

Well, I knew that Rachel and Brendan would not be eliminated, but I sure wish Luke and Mom would just leave. I'm tired of him saying "It's so hard.." over and over.
I'm rooting for my cowboys and for Flight Time & Big Easy. They are having the MOST fun on this race.

Did anyone besides me feel a just a little bit bad for Margie and Luke though ... I mean they couldn't even try the DJ challenge since it required being able to hear. I thought that was a bit rough for them.

Yes, I thought of that also and did feel bad about it. It was not like they even had another challenge to choose.

Which is pretty much why it had to be a non-elimination. But at the same time, is it really that much different than Big Easy not being able to do some tasks?

Not at all. I'm not hard of hearing (my wife might beg to differ) and I couldn't carry a tune in a bag and doubt I could have completed the master mix challenge.
Bottom line, they still had a choice. The previous leg the Trotters got to the roadblock and Big Easy elected to do it as Flight Time had done the previous two. Once they got there they found out that he was to big to do the roadblock, the zip line wouldn't hold him, so Flight Time was forced to do it. To me, that was a lot worse than Margie and Luke being given two choices, one of which would have been very difficult, at least they still had a choice. The Trotters were put into a position where FT had now done all 3 of the roadblocks, that can have impacts far down the line, and they had no choice.
As a TAR team, I've pretty much run out of compassion for Margie and Luke.

I thought that too, but they did keep showing a wave form monitor ... Not sure if he could have done it by watching the wave form, and copying it.

Did you also know that this was the leg that they self-eliminated themselves? And....they are not going to do that again.
I was kind of indifferent to them as a team the first go round, with all the blubbering the dad does, but I'm started to like them this season, but enough is enough already.

Yes, so the finish was anti-climatic, but very satisfying. Margie and Luke just really seemed to have the wind knocked out of their sails from the previous leg, and just weren't into it. They got the nice edit on the way out.
I'm sorry....Connor and Dave are just soooo boring. Ahhhh. Their story IS the Achilles. I guess now we'll hear every week about how this is new territory for them, racing past leg 5 being healthy and Oh, sorry! They are dominating though. I'll give them that.

That was kind of the impression I came away with, that they were just beat down. Maybe had they known that there was a bunching waiting for them on the other side of the flight they might have taken a different approach, but given the choice between "the plane is full" and "rush to connect" I just can't believe I wouldn't take the chance. The feeling I got was they were just praying for a miracle. I didn't sense that the ticketing agents were giving them any false sense that standby would open up (keeping in mind they needed to book 4 tickets to include camera crew, not just 2).
They just seemed out of it, which fortunately they were.

This has turned out to be an unusual season for me, I now don't have any more teams that I cannot stand left. Rachael and Brendon and the Afganimals are behaving so much better that I have actually enjoyed them. The 2 teams I'd most like to see go home next are the blondes (the John Wayne thing is almost as annoying as the Achilles) and the guy and gal who couldn't catch a fish.

Totally agree with you, and I'm so glad Mom & Luke are gone. Next up on my gone list are the blondes. They just don't register as personalities you want to root for.
Loved the Cowboys at the sewing challenge, but they ended up doing a credible job. Also rooting for FT and Big Easy. Best attitudes of all the racers.

Chalk me up as another one thrilled to see Margie & Luke gone and also left with no teams I really dislike.
I anticipate a fun run to the finish line now, because I really like most of these teams. The only one I'm sort of indifferent to is Jessica and John. If I had to pick a team I'd want to go next it would be them simply because I find them fairly bland and unlikable. I don't dislike them, but I don't particularly like them either.

Yeah I'm tired of hearing about the Achilles as well, but I like them. They are smart and they work hard, and as I noted before, they seem to be the least likely to implode. Despite the editing making it seem like Margie and Luke were somehow catching up, we know they must've been really far behind. They weren't even shown performing the tasks (we just saw them leaving the fishing task). I was again impressed with Rachel this week. She really kept her patience with the plate spinning. Looks like we might see a meltdown next week, though.

I agree with being good with this last elimination. I do find myself surprise to actually say I don't dislike Brendon and Rachel for the first time in all their appearances on Big Brother and Amazing Race.
