I'm actually going to go w/ someone other than the Twins this week. Yes, they are completely clueless and stupid, but Lance's knee is going to kill those two this week. THat's right - the bowling moms will finish ahead of Marshall and Lance. I know it's wishful thinking - I'll go back to the crackpipe now.

The bowling moms don't have any money, so I just don't know how they are going to find transportation to get them to where they need to go. So I think they will finish last this week.

I don't understand the hate for Marshall and Lance. I picked them to win at the beginning of the season.
My pick to lose is the bowling moms. I don't see how you can win with no money, unless they find someone to give them some or something. Maybe they will pimp each other out?

1. They are rude jerks, especially to the "foreigners". I put that in quotes because M&L are actually the foreigners. Last week they called Russians "miserable people". On a previous leg they referred to some folks as "stupid foreigners".
2. They are whining, complaining quitters. Best example of this is the chocolate eating challenge from a few weeks ago and the rock moving challenge from last week. Many times they have said "We can't do this." or "This is hard. Waaaaaa." or "This is not fair. Waaaaaa" or etc.
In my mind, the Twins, Brothers and Moms (in no particular order) will be the next 3 teams eliminated. They consistently run and finish in the rear of the pack, and nothing they have done indicates they have potential to do better.

I just don't see how the brothers can win a race if one of them is limping that badly. And as bad of a situation that the mothers are in, I think that they'll find a way to pull through.

I'm going to vote for the twins, I figure even with no money the bowling moms are used to working within a budget, and are probably familiar with fund-raising I think they'll be okay.

Bonus prediction:
Colin and Christie have something like a 8-10 hour headstart, right? No doubt that there will be a point in this leg where they arrive at some business/place in the evening (when operating hours are over) and must wait for it to open in the morning, which will allow other teams to catch up.

I think it is more like 8-10 hours. C&C finished at around 11:30 if memory serves. The camel ride closed at 5:30, and we know that 1.5 cut that close (and were likely late). Figure they did not start riding until 6 pm at the earliest (getting saddled up, etc). I can't believe they finished the leg before 7:30.

I read from somewhere that CBS ordered two more seasons of TAR after seeing the results of this season, so I would not be surprised if bowling moms end up surviving much longer than the conventional predictions. Team 2K is probably the weakest in terms of racing performance but has tremendous luck and help from others, so they may stick around for a while until their luck runs out. That leaves pizza boys with bad luck and injury as the most likely team to be eliminated.
