On wikipedia it said there was a FF on leg 5 but if there was wouldn't you think someone would have took it...Did anyone see a green FF clue on leg 5..i dont remember seeing one and i paid attention to that.

I don't think i saw a FF, and i think teams would have went for it, especially Eric/Jeremy who were so hoping to win every leg of the race.

I went to check wikipedia immediately and saw no info about a FF on leg 5, a mistake maybe?

TBC are stupid
yields are okay but everyone hates them
ff on every leg rocked! there was actually some strategy
penalties for nel are ok but we dont really need them.

TBC aren't it's just non-eliminations without penalties. If you don't think you need penalties for NEL, then you should love TBC.

FF on every leg is what makes the race stupid.

1. TBC are NOT anything close to NEL...For one you don't get to see a finish for that leg...Two the race is still going on for the racers. It may stop for us but not for them.

2. FF on every leg was great. Right now when you have 2 FF's the first team to get to the FF clue just takes it and wins. When there was a FF on all legs there was strategy "Should we take it now or wait". Even when the FF wasn on every leg half the legs were still won without a FF...

FF on every leg, strategy? No.

The only strategy for the team to think is only "Should we safe it for later or use it".

Yes, but it was nice to see the sucky teams win...What's so nice about there being 2 FF's..The show hasn't benefitted from it at all...First teamto the cluebox takes it and wins...It's exciting for the viewers to see a crappy team win.

IF tar 5 would have 11 FF's then fan favorites linda/karen and charla/mirna probably would have one...
