<How are Joe and Bill doing? Can they win?>

Team Bio:
Joe and Bill have been together for over 20 years, and were living in Paris before they went on the Amazing Race the first time. Official bio.


Since we last saw them:
Bill went back to work at Coldwell Banker, and Joe works out of their home.


Their Biggest Strengths:
Strong relationship. Ability to keep a sense of humor and perspective.


Their Biggest Roadblock:
Rob and Amber; everybody else's youth (except Teri's and Ian's); other teams may be leery of them, based on their past "villainous" reputation, and may not be keen about sharing any info with them.


Advice to the Team:
Run FAST, be FAST, & beat the younger teams to the Route Markers &, most importantly, the Pit Stops.

Most Memorable Moments with Joe and Bill:

• They were the show "villains" in the 1st Season!
• Won the Fast Forward in Leg 9, but still checking in in last place for waiting for a bus instead of taking a taxi! They overestimated their time advantage over the other teams. They were only saved by the 24-hr penalty given to Nancy & Emily (for skipping the Detour), who were eliminated, instead.
• Although they took 3rd place their Season, they didn't officially finish the Race! When they reached the 12th Pit Stop 24 hours behind the 2 other teams, they were given a message (via a clue box) telling them that "Rob and Brennan had [already] crossed the finish line."
