Let's just say from the looks of the teams from the promo... I think it's gonna be a really good season. (had the same feeling for TAR12 and didn't really feel it in TAR13)I think it has a lot more potential to be a good season. If it's true that the father-son, the short men, the token boring couple (winners |

par with Toni/Dallas lol.

Another drama filled season is coming. I just hope we get a good winner this time. |

I have always thought it is better to supress one's ignorance by keeping one's mouth shut, than by opening it and removing all doubt. FYI, "Latinos are any people/culture that derived its language and/or culture from ancient Rome and the language of Rome which was LATIN, hence the term "LATINO." There are five major languages/cultures in the world that are derived from LATIN........French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and Spanish. Thats one reason universities list these as the ROMANCE languages. So if your first language is anyone of those five or your heritage derived from one of those countries, whether you like it or not, you are a LATINO. Hispanic is another interesting term. It comes from the Hispanola/Iberian Peninsula of Europe that includes Portugal and Spain. So Hispanics would be a subset of Latinos that came from Portuguese or Spanish heritage, both in language or culture. So now you know the rest of the story........JohnVito really is a Latino, Eric Sanchz is both Latino and Hispanic....

QUOTED FROM RFF: -------------- This post above caught my eye - I've been to Verzasca valley myself on an excursion during my time as geology student at the Swiss federal institute of technology in Zurich. There's Lago di Vogrono, a reservoir lake and the dam bordering its end, Dam Verzasca was featured in a James Bond Movie ("Goldeneye"). 007 does a bungy-jump from that dam, which is a very popular thing to do among tourists! There's not really anything else thrilling going on in that valley (except for geology of course ) so I'll pick up
that spoiler/speculation and, if correct, guess we'll see some bungee jumping as a task or a maybe even a roadblock?
I'd love to extend this and post pictures of the dam and the valley (and the site of the jump itself), but I don't have them with me so you'll have to wait until I'm heading to Innsbruck again. -------------- So I guess, the death-defying stunt is the bungy-jump ala 007. UGH!!! WHY!?!?! I FUCKING HATE BUNGY-JUMPING! IT'S UNFAIR COZ THEY STILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THEIR TURN!!! UGH!!! ETA: WHY CAN'T I FIND THE SASSY OLDER AFRICAN AMERICAN LADIES!?!?!? UGH!

The cast will announce this Monday due to Obama's Inauguration. It is originally scheduled this Wednesday, but it moved to 5 days for waiting the new
teams.

If this map is right, then where in the LA area does the race begin?
Does the background look familiar to anyone? It looks like they took helicopters to get there. The ground sort of looks like a deflation zone within an area of dunes. The lack of vegetation puts it either directly on the water or in a really arid place that is probably too windy for plants to stay rooted. Thoughts?

Great work RFF!
Interesting looking crew, I guess. But like the last few races, easy to spot the winners: ![]()
He just appears to be extreme alpha male that will win despite his partner. Great news, the mom/son are not the first to be eliminated:
This definitely looks like a pit stop congratulatory high five. These two might be my early favs, something adoring about the lady and their supportive kiss. ![]()
Looks like their first task will be jump or maybe a rescue from a military helicopter.. COOL! Anyone have the link for the video? edited to add: Thinking now that the helicopters might be their entrance vehicles for the introductions. Reminds me of Season with the boats coming into Chicago, or the hovercrafts from Season 2 (?).
