Very good point. During the ep, I think it was when the guys were changing for the bottle break challenge, one of them said something like "These things [the tight pants] are jamming up my ass." I thought, well, that should be just about right for you then.
They are definitely overcompensating.

When they met that guy on the train, they immediately asked the guy "Are there many pretty girls in Germany?" It was like they were afraid the guy might be hitting on them so they had to immediately declare their hetero-ness.
I think from now on I will call them Team Ace & Gary.

I dunno, I prefer some of the other gimmick teams, the clowns were a good sport.
itchy and scratchy were also fun.
the best though were of course Kevin and Drew.
I'm not sure yet who I am rooting for in this race, probably Fran and Barry to be honest, barry's like everyone's funny uncle.

I like the hippies. Normally I don't like over the top goofy, but they are really so goofy that I think it's real - not a show. It seems like they're stuck at age 9.

I can't stand the hippies, especially the blond one. To me they're coming off as attention whores. I probably would like them if they'd drop the schtick.

Hippies are complete attention whores. They drive me nuts. I hope something bad happens to them on the race soon. Anything to bring them down a notch.

I like Lake, he's almost as funny as BJ & Tyler and he's one of the better racers when he's actually following the directions. Maybe part of it is that I hate when the show is obviously trying to create a villain and there just isn't enough there to justify it in my mind.

Is anyone else getting tired of Eric & Jeremy's obsession with sex? It was mildly amusing at first, but their continued preoccupation with finding babes to bang on the race is wearing kind of thin and is either forced or pathetic.

BTW, didn't the horny boys say something about "tongue wrestling" with the pinks again? I can't believe those 2 girls would actually make out with those 2 tools, but maybe it happened.

I don't actually hate them, though (yet). That's reserved for Lake.

Telling someone to shut up like 4 times in about 5 or 6 six days is treating them like shit? I guess they can't all be like Saint Zach. Heck, the guy isn't even close to Ian Ray levels at this point. Forget the fact that Lake is also incredibly supportive of Michelle and one of the racers most willing to help other teams.

I don't get all the Lake bashing either... All I see is, he is driven and focused. When they were riding in the car, all he says to his wife is that the negative schtick she was giving doesn't help... which is 100% the truth.
I guess everyone's looking for the teams to get down on each other and start arguing. After all, I guess it makes "good TV".

Okay
Maybe it just takes a lot to make me dislike a team. There are only two in the history of the race I found to be utterly comtemptible.
However, this season there aren't even any teams that leave me cold. They all get along so well! It kinda makes me miss the Lynn & Alex Coalition vs. Rob & Amber rivalry.
