The Amazing Race 9/14/04

From the CBS Website
Next on The Amazing Race
Tuesday, September 14 10PM ET/PT
  • One Team gets lost right out of the Pit Stop and starts fighting with each other.
  • Several Racers have to face their fear of heights in a harrowing Roadblock that forces them to walk across a narrow girder high above the waters of Auckland Harbor. Will they be able to complete the task?
  • After 10 legs of the Race, one Team finally decides to use the Yield. The Yielded Team is stunned and furious. Will time lost during the Yield mean elimination?
  • One Team finds themselves stuck in the mud at the mercy of a stubborn ox.
Going to get down to the final three this week. I'm guessing the Bowling Moms on the ones that get lost and later get Yielded and subsequently, Philiminated. And it sounds like the "I hate you" that
Spoiler:
Colin
delivered in last weeks preview is directed to the ox.

C&C are going to be yielded I think by Chip & Kim. They have been setting it up for weeks. Anyway, I think the mom's are out.

I'm not so sure Chip and Kim would yield Colin and Christie ... they've been going out of their way to let C&C blow up on their own. I can definately see them yeilding the moms, though.

I voted (bowling moms) before I read the preview, but possibly Colin and Christie because it seems they will be the ones yielded (who else would get furious over it?).

It only makes sense to yield the team behind you if you are next to last. I can't see the 1st or 2nd place team wasting a yield.
So whomever is in 3rd place during the race, I think we yield the 4th (last) place team to insure they don't pass them in the final leg.

I think the Bowling Mom's will be eliminated.

Do we even know if this is an elimination leg ?
I would be pissed if I used the yield and it worked to keep the team behind me from passing me, then learned that it was a non-elimination round !

How many non-elimination legs are left? 1 or 2?

Never mind.. its 1 left.

The twins, bowling moms and Brandon and Nicole all benefited from non-elimination.

I think next week will be a non-elimination week.

I think that the bowling moms will go this week.

Spoiler:

A preview for the episode shows a narrow climbing ladder like you see for climbing up into a helicopter, attached to a bridge. The preview shows one of the moms saying that she is scared of heights and that she can't do this.

I voted for Bowling Moms. They should be in the kitchen making their respective husbands a pie, not running around the world.

Secondary prediction: Chip and Kim use the Yield on the Bowling Moms.

Yeah, but how many times have we seen a contestant on The Amazing Race (or any reality show for that matter) say "I can't do this" only to have them do it anyway (usually after a commericial break).

There's only this week and the 2 hour finale next week, so unless they've thrown the TAR handbook out the window, it has to be elimination this week.

But they have changed things this year (Yield, only 2 FF, lose your money), so nothing's certain.

I think it's going to be Chip & Kim that get yielded, and thus Philiminated. I can see Chip getting mad because someone yielded them. He'd look at it as backstabbing them since he's been helpful to most teams throughout the race.

Though he was pretty regretful last week at not yielding the twins ... it has gotten down to the nitty gritty, and all the teams will do whatever it takes to make it to the final 3.

Even though Colin is an ass, I hope they stay in as he provides some entertainment.

It's gotta be the moms. They've been last too many times for the luck to keep going.
Looking forward to Colin crying though.

I would absolutely love to see Colin yielded. That would be wildly entertaining.

Unless there is another eating contest, the Bowling Whales will be eliminated.

You could have at least cleaned up the spelling, too.

I agree. Of course, I think they will finish last and be saved by non-elimination.

There is only 1 more non-elimination leg and it's always saved for the 2nd to last show for the last 3 teams.

This is the 2nd to last show. Next week is the season finale.

Any team that gets the yield will be mad, so that's not really saying much.
I voted Chip and Kim, for it seems like they've been a bit sloppy lately.

Bad wording. It's saved for the 2nd to the last leg of the race.

This is the 11th leg of the race. The non-elimination will happen on the 12th. And the winner is crowned on the 13th. The 2 hour season finale combines the last two legs.
