I feel mad because all the internet rumors were that Brendon/Rachel won and a former amazing race contestant said she knew for a fact that Brendon/Rachel won because she heard it from credible sources.

Dave and Rachel were the strongest team so I guess they deserved to win but they are really boring. Bopper and Mark were the true ones to root for but when they left all I really even cared about was Brendon/Rachel.

If Bopper & Mark won then there would be an uproar on the forums about how the game was fixed for them etc etc.

They would have been amazing winners though, they'll be back for All Stars no doubt

I don't think anyone here would be mad about mark and bopper winning, I think they were universally loved.

They really embodied the spirit of the amazing race. They really enjoyed it the whole time, and appreciated getting to travel and take in the sights and adventures, but they also kept a perspective about their friendship the whole time. They were great.

I've seen a few people say that the episodes were fixed for them because they had non-elimination legs in their favour etc. I think they would have been won around had they seen them both win though, would've been magical

It's obvious they will be back for All Stars, their edit and being given a message near the end indicated the producer's intentions. They were never likely to win however, even in Germany running up the castle steps it was obvious they weren't fit enough. And in an interview after the race they admitted they did argue with each other, it just wasn't shown. And in the second non-elimination leg it certainly seemed to be suggested to them that they would not be eliminated and that's why Mark didn't give up eventually. And of course it's questionable whether Mark (and JJ really) ever completed that task properly.

The teams with the top average placements in the season finished in the final 3.

why does it seem like the same people that love 9/11 conspiracy video's also love amazing race and survivor? there's a weird connection there.

there's a weird connection between 9/11 conspiracy vids, and survivor/amazing race, and Anime fans.

for some reason those 3 fandoms seem to intersect... lol

I should really watch post-interviews they sound pretty insightful

mark and bopper definitely will b offered a spot on allstars. just hoping brencehl might to- just for the drama :)

For season 21, the grand prize is $2 Million reportedly. Like that'll make things more competitive.
