You guys could have bucked up and be in the final 3. I know you are like Ironhide the GMC topkick truck.

Seeing the departing times (gaps) for the teams this week really illustrate what happened to Oswald and Danny last week. It was hard to tell last week how much opportunity they had (if any) to really make up that "marked for elimination" 30 minute penalty. It looked like they might not have had a whole lot of opportunity to and that perhaps their only realistic chance to survive and make the final 3 was to win the leg so they didn't have the penalty.

That was certainly the view of the person who put in the "they got screwed" comment. Complaining that the way the leg was constructed there wasn't any real opportunity for them to make up the time and survive. Now having seen the departure times (and therefore we know the arrival times and gaps) they had a huge opportunity to make up the time.

Dustin and Kandice beat Eric and Danille to the pit stop by more than an hour (about an 67 minutes I think) and D&K beat Charla and Mirna by more than an hour and a half and presumeably Oswald and Danny by something perhaps in the 2 hour range.

This means had Oswald and Danny run just a "pretty good" leg and came in 30 minutes behind the Blondes, they would have waited out their 30 minute elimination penalty and STILL came in 2nd. They could have come in an hour behind the Blondes and still survived, since Charla and Mirna came in more than an hour and a half behind the Blondes.

So as it turns out Oswald and Danny actually had back to back horrible legs and it wasn't the construction of the leg at all that contributed to them not making the Final 3.

There was no chance for Danny and Oswald last night. There was no real way for there to be any big time lapses on this leg. For both the detour and roadblock, all teams had escort drivers. They were picked up and delivered from beginning to destination. Adding insult to injury, their escorts were there to help with navigating the gps systems. there was absolutely no way Danny and Oswald could get their first or be there 30 mintues before other teams. Had the teams had to find their own way and navigate the gps without any help, maybe they could have made it. AR helped determine who the last 3 teams were going to be when they designed this leg. Allowing escorts to help with nevigation was cheating but it was a built in feature. Chala and Danielle would still be trying to find their way if they didn't have help and Danny and Oswald would have been team No. 2. It's a shame that AR didn't let it play out the way it should.

I almost peed my pants when Oswald said that. You guys played an awesome race. I only wish you were still in it to win it. But I don't know how you can want Charla and Mirna to win. ChMirna are so annoying, I don't know why I am watching them. Mirna is the only person I know that would tell the Air Force personnel on a C17 cargo plan to go faster. That just goes to show how manupilative she is to think that she can control the damn US Air Force. I found that disrepectful. And it was so "humanitarian" the way they were just throwing the care packages into the box. I bet the children loved the broken toys. When an Air Force soldier has to tell you to show the items "some love", you are being a little bit too abrasive. And the footage of Charla running through the jungle was too funny. How many times does you have to be told to not touch the buttons!? And why does Mirna not do the difficult tasks. And my final comment for venting, and I know this is mean, but just how is Charla going to knock the crown off the BQ's head? I guess someone will hand her a step ladder. And Oswald, you are a gorgeous man. The guy who gets you is very lucky, but you are breaking alot of women's hearts, including mine.

Air Force Sargeant: "All right guys you are done!"
Oswald: "I'm bringing you over to tell my maid how to clean, 'cause obviously I don't know what to tell her."
This one left me in abosolute die hard laughter. What great one liners Oswald has! Incredible!

They seem to get lost when driving to another stop...how come the others manage to find their way, sometimes with difficulty..but they seem to be the worse. Also, while Danny was looking for the soldier, he seem to expect that they would be in plain view...lost time while the soldier was there right under his nose..he suppose to 'poke' through the shrubs. They had their chance, becuase Charla was screwed up with that GPS and so was Danielle. I'm rooting for Charla or the blondes...not Eric, the soreloser.

I love Oswald & Danny they need to have their own show. They are both such beautiful people. They may have not won, but they won the hearts of meny people. They are still winners in my book.

I was so hoping they would be one of the third teams to finish the race. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed watching them because they showed they were very humble, they cared about each other very much, they are wonderful together and to others. Someday I wish I can meet them or add them as my friend on myspace/mgcarmona because they are wonderful! Much love to you guys.

Hola a los dos, quiero que sepan que me encanto verlos de nuevo en este show, estoy enamorada de ustedes dos me encanta la vibra que transmiten y la paz con la que los dos se expresan.
Desde su primera carrera cuando se fueron de shopping en Hong Kong (creo que fue ahi) fue lo mejor, me tenian atacada de la risa.
Que lastima que los eliminaron pero por algo pasan las cosas. Acuerdense que se puede ser millonario de muchas maneras, no solo con dinero. (aunque unos centavos no caigan mal jajaja).
Les mando mil abrazos .
Gabriela.
