Non elimination but the old couple come last (at least I hope they do). Like everyone here, I have been voting for them to get eliminated the past 4 weeks and they are still here.

Same, non-elim with old couple in last. Guess that means they lose their clothes again, wonder if they'll follow the lead from previous teams and "bundle up"?

The old couple will come in last in a non-elim leg. I hope they are going home because Gretchen's voice just about drove me over the edge last week. I can't take it any more.

Agree on the non-elim, and that yes the old couple will come in last. And since they usually know they are at the back of the pack they should put most of their belongings on before getting to the mat. What would be a riot
is if someone would start putting all their belongings on right there for the camera before stepping on the mat. I would think the look on Phil's face would be priceless.

Non-elim.

Don't like how they've only had one so far. Makes this leg very predictable.

Good Lord, if M & G win this thing it would be like a Pop Warner team winning the Super Bowl. It would destroy all credibility in the so-called "race around the world." Maybe they will tone down on the bunch-ups next season.

Someone with access to the entire season so far needs to volunteer to see just how many days of time Team Geezer has benefitted from the numerous and lengthy bunch-up points.

If this is not a non-elimination, the only team that I can see screwing up big enough in order to possibly save the old folks is Ron and Kelly. Saying that, I gotta believe that the old folks are gone.

Would AR risk taking all of someones clothes away if there was a chance of having a severly bad weather day? I guess we are to assume that there gonna stay along the equator until back in the US.

It's definately a non-elimination round because sweeps doesn't start until next week.

well, the producers love to have the contestants go to India to be groped by the train passengers though they really haven't shown that this edition. Then it's usually off to Alaska or somewhere cold and then Hawaii then the sprint to the finish. Someone already mentioned that the teams all resort to begging at the airports so perhaps the last team will beg a lot to buy warm clothes.

I am really hoping Romber doesn't win the whole thing. I really don't like any of the teams except perhaps Ulchen and Joyce so I hope they win.
I also think it is non-elimination as there are only four teams left. Gretchen is going to shriek once Phil take her new backpack away tonight

Actually, it looks like she is quite computer literate.

If only she would type her responses on TAR. Then we wouldn't have to hear her screeching voice all the time!

I'm getting sick of all the hate for Rob and Amber. If you check out Gretchen's blog, she's got an entry that goes something like this:

"We got to Johdpur and hotels were scarce, so we offered to share a room with Joyce and Uchenna and Lynn and Alex. And then Rob and Amber came along and tried to offer the hotel owner more money so they could have our room!!!!!!! How dare they!!!!!! We got there first!!!! Rob and Amber are evil!!!!!"

Jesus, people -- get over Rob and Amber. They seem to be the only ones having fun on this race around the world; everyone else is too busy being pissy toward them to enjoy themselves.

Thank you.

I am rooting for Romber not only because they are running the race brilliantly but also because it will likely mean more Amber spreads in FHM, Stuff, and Maxim.

I could live with the Baldies winning. I would be seriously pissed if one of the other couples won.
