Amazing Race 8 Week 1

last week was episode one of the amazing race 8.

the black family lost. and yes they were black. i was hoping the paolo family would lose. until i sae the youngest black family member plea for help to a cameraman because he couldn’t get up by a stream. two of the most unathletic kids i’ve ever seen!

they need to be kicked off of nintendo and outside a bit.

i’m rooting fo the paolo family to lose tonight.

i have an interseting idea.

i know amazing race 9 has already held trials for amazing race 9. (Scooby and I are considering auditioning for amazing race 10) but i think they should have a few more ‘gimmick’ races.

maybe every other race should be a gimmick race.

proposals,:

1. an all young race. sometimes the ‘old’ couple really suffers trying to do some of the physical tasks presented to them. have a race where all of the teams are under 40, and really pile on the physical tasks.

2. an all older race. 50 and up only. go a little lighter on the physical tasks, and go tougher on the mental.

3. an international race. get team from these countries.
UK – Soccer hooligans please.
France – BOOOOO! amke sure they are snotty to up the hate factor and prop ratings.
Japan – just so they can excel in asia, where they will have a smaller language barrier.
Korea – Make sure they don’t like Japan.
India – Just so we can see how they fare against the rest of us.
Iraq – to give a middle eastern team a chance.
Israel – Let the fighting begin!
Russia – Because we know so little about them.
Australia – beause i like australia, preferably two hot chicks.
Miami – because it is a foreign country here. oh wait, i mean Cuban
Colombia – to represent the sud americanos.
and the US! so we can see who our friends are.

4. an all female race. no girl-girl team has won yet. i think physical reqs might have something to do with it. give them a shot.

5. an all minority race. let’s face it. i haven’t seen a single asian team. one hispanic team, and there is usually a token black team. seems to be a plethora of jewish teams. let’s get them all in there. i want to see a navajo team running loose in kenya!

6. a second chance race. and this is the race i want to see the most. bring back teams who were all competitors to all race one more time against each other. teams should be:

Team Guido from AR1 beause they set the stage for shafting other teams.
Team Cha Cha Cha from AR2 everyone loved team cha cha cha
Team Tara and Wil from AR2 everyone hated wil.
Team Mycoskie from AR2 to keep everyone moving
Team Ken and Gerard from AR3 for comedy
Team Clowns from AR4 for comedy
Team Kelly and Jon from AR4 tall leggy redhead. and she’s a texan.
Team Charla and Mirna from AR5 mirna is an uber bitch
Team Colin and Christie from AR5 colin and mirna fought like cats.
Team Jonathon and Victoria from AR6 everybody HATED jonathon even more than wil
Team Wrestling from AR6 bolo needs to be in this race
Team Adam and Rebecca from AR6 rebecca is a suicide girl and adam was a whiner.
Team Hayden and Aaron from AR6 she whined so much at the end.
Team Survivor from AR7 rob and amber provided good strife.
Team Lynn and Alex from AR7 as long as they promise not to sing ‘racing in peru’ again

and yeah, i know. 15 teams. be slow, be last. be last, be eliminated. NO non elimination legs.
