    I never said Tua was better. I’m saying if I was a receiver I’d much rather play for Miami than KC. See below

    Yeah, that extra 26 yds/game really puts Tua at another level. 🙄

    I had looked it up. I usually like to know more about the cast members so I found this site that gives a pretty good breakdown, including IG info for everyone:

    https://thedirect.com/article/the-amazing-race-2024-cast-contestants-season-36-photos

    On their IG pages, they both appeared to be aspiring influencers, Vinny moreso than Amber. He had posts and videos about getting out of student loan debt, becoming an entrepreneur, flexing his arms in scrubs in ridiculous poses, and generally looking like a narcissistic asshat. Their accounts both still featured each other, and called themselves The Dream Team, so I interpreted that as them being together.

    When I was watching this episode last night, I looked at their IG again mid-episode and saw lots of fresh comments from TAR fans, telling Amber to leave his ass. People basically started comment bombing all of their old posts on both accounts, saying what an asshole Vinny is.

    I just looked again and both accounts are now private, which is...quite funny. Aspiring influencers now have private accounts. Probably in damage control mode, or perhaps the breakup is happening as we speak.

    I'm hoping they are "together" through the airing so that it helps their (his) online presence.

    Hopefully, she's done with his stupid ass.

    I see their relationship quite the opposite. Vinny is a condescending asshole who constantly puts her down. She definitely has her insecurities and weaknesses, but he preys on those and tears her apart, then offers some half-assed encouragement like "you can do it babe" when it's already too late. 

    She can't drive a stick, which I think is a fair criticism, but half the people in the history of TAR have lacked this skill. Her navigation skills seem adequate. There are definitely teams that are worse, and it doesn't seem like poor navigation has hurt Amber and Vinny at any point so far. Even other "good" teams have struggled with navigation, but they don't destroy each other over it.

    As far as completing challenges, Amber has mostly been fine and it's very difficult to do anything well when your partner is constantly telling you how stupid and shitty you are. Imagine spending a day with your spouse, having to assemble things, navigate a foreign city, perform music routines, and your wife spends the entire day calling you pathetic, slow, and stupid, all on television for the world to see. How can anyone be expected to do well in those circumstances? She should leave his ass.

    I don't even particularly like Amber, but I think Vinny is a narcissistic piece of shit. If they split up, I would fully expect him to find another insecure and emotionally vulnerable partner and treat her like shit.

    He is an asshole.  She is beaten down.

    I hope they have broken up by now.

    The article should be titled "Reggie Bush gets Vince Young's Heisman back"

    Damn, why didn't I think of that?

    Don’t teams that play on Week 0 have the option to add a 13th game to their schedule? Usually an FCS cupcake to make up for the loss of a home game. 

    That went away years ago.

    I think the only path to a 13th regular season game now is playing at Hawaii. (Although, that may be gone as well)

    You are an entertaining poster and the best of the pedants scampering around this site. This is a silly hill you’re trying to take with the schtick though. Their branding of that slot has been an absolute success and offends mostly no one. 

    I tilt at the occasional windmill. Gotta be me.

    Actually, your understanding of College Football Fandom sucks ass if you think that the West Coast & the Mountain Time Zones have the same percentage of rabid college football fans in their population that the Eastern Time Zone has.

    Eastern Time Zone probably has 53% of rabid college football fans.

    In general, the west coast doesn’t give a fuck about college football.

    I understand just fine.  It's a stupid name and regardless of the viewing percentages, it's insulting to a large portion of the base.

    hunter was never a threat to win this thing.  he was great in challenges but inept strategically.  both he and tiff were certain to play their idols, according to the edits, but neither did.  hunter was desperate for reassurances on whether he was safe or not and trusted what he heard over his instincts.  here's the way i see it:  venus and  ben have zero shot and are just hangers on.  q also has no shot because he's alienated himself.   liz would be next.  she has some smarts but maybe that dont apply to this game.  that leaves tiff, kenzie, maria, and charlie.  kenzie is the most vocal of that group, so first out.  final three is maria, charlie, and tiff.  

    That's probably a pretty good summary.

    It just astounds me how many people leave the show with an idol in their pocket. So dumb.

    So, there is something like football played in Ireland, so maybe they’re naturals for this. I’ll tell you what, Dublin is awesome. Honestly, it really exceeded my (already positive) expectations. I encourage everyone to go sometime. 
     
    That said, I never saw any need to eat the mashed peas that were a side dish on every damned meal. 

    I visited Dublin last year and I agree. Fantastic city.

    I tried the mashed peas a couple of times because I like peas, but found it pretty bland.

    For those who have seen it, it was a little unclear to me which "side" Jesse Plemon's character was on.  I believe it was the "United States" and not the Western Forces.  That right? Effectively blurring the lines among which side was in the "right"? 

    I think he was definitely not with the WF, so on the side of the President.

    I have zero sympathy for anyone that goes home with an idol in their pocket. How fucking stupid can you be?

    Hunter played that so poorly.

    Either play the fucking idol

    -OR- 

    STFU and don't tell anyone about it

    So dumb.

    They fucking better. Zeke and Zonk are the best in the business. I like Craig way but would rather keep the two baseball brains together.

    They are great, but not ideal for radio. One of them (or both, but $), as color, but Craig needs to be PBP.
