Well Danny and Oswald got lucky with the last Non-Elimination leg. I am hoping they win it all still, but Dustin and Kandice are really the team to beat. Charla and Mirna are still so annoying but also really stupid about how the race works. How could a yield possibly help a team? Next week the previews show Danielle breaking down yet again and saying she wants to go home. Big shocker. That sky jump was so cool and I want to do it really bad. |

The jump from the building was awesome .. because it is something I'd never do. My fear is heights so I'd never have even been at the top of the buildings so kudos to all who at least made it that far. Chicken big and chicken little still get soooo on my nerves. Everytime I think they will be gone .... oh well not much longer to have to tolerate them. I was a little miffed that Danny and Oswald were blaming the girls for them using the yield. THEY OFFERED it. The girls didn't ask. I'd bet money too the big and little would have asked them to yield the girls if they'd been here first. Oh well, D and O will be gone next week. The competition is getting to intense for them to come back from their time penalty. Looks like we will have big and little, the girls and the last married couple standing in the final 3. NO all female team has ever one .. sooooo my humble pick for winner is the final bickering team? oh wait that doesn't narrow it down does it? E and D will pull out a victory, unless the girls do, or even worse if chicken little and chicken big do. Oh my have to rethink this one |

I thought last night's show was awesome and the tasks were hysterical.  After watching last night, I can't help but root, root, root for Cha-Cha-Cha! How come the blondies didn't have karma kick them in the chops? Dangitallanyway!! It wouldn't bother me so much, but they totally lied about the whole yield situation!  Just mute your television when Mirna & Schmirna are on! |

I have to go with you on last night's epi funnygirl. I was watching on karma to sneak up on the beauty queens. I know it's a game and every team for themself but that was pretty low. And especially to not own up to it. I'm sure it will come back around and bite them on the rear. I know Danny and Oswald were kicking themselves when Schmirna said they would have just given them the money. Then they wouldn't have had to sell a clean game (played by them so far) for cab fare. I really didn't understand yielding Danielle and Eric at that point. They were already in the back of the pack. It's like kicking someone when they're already down. chairo, the only way to overcome that fear is to do it. I was afraid of heights too. I have done a 120ft. drop twice and it's a blast. Come on chairo...just do it. I'll hold your hand.

I think the yield was a great idea. It's part of the game, use it. For the blondes to go through with it was a brilliant strategy. There was also the danger there that the blondes would be yielded. At this point in the race you don't need parterships, you don't need friends. You need your competition to be un-focused and behind you. I think Dustin and Kandice have this season on lock. |

I agree epheks... I'm tired of people looking at the yield as dirty game play. It's a part of the game! It's not dirty. Use it to your advantage! The blondes have done really well in using the yield this season. |

I agree that the yield is a tool in the game. By the logic of some, it would be playing dirty to have a goalie in soccer - I mean, wouldn't it be the "right" thing to not block people's kicks? I didn't like that Dustin and Kandice lied to Eric and Danielle, but I fully support what they did. As for Danny and Oswald, they wouldn't have been in that financial situation if Oswald wouldn't have paid for those papers instead of asking people for them like he was supposed to. In the end, I hope it comes down to the blondes and the Cha Chas. Maybe there will be some sort of equalizer that will allow Danny and Oswald to pull ahead. |

Okay, did you all watch a different show than I did? Danny and Oswald APPROACHED the girls. Told them for money they would yield who ever the girls wanted. The girls walked away to discuss it and came back and agreed if they yield Eric and Danielle. The GIRLS did NOT initiate the yield they just used it to their advantage ... after all if D and O agreed to yield another team, they knew they were safe. But for the few who don't have a problem with the yield I agree ... it is not a dirty move just a smart one this late in the game. Other wise everyone who builds a hotel on Boardwalk and bankrupts their fellow players would be playing a dirty game of Monopoly |

They didn't "approach" the girls. The yield was brought up and Danny was teasing them about the girls being yielded. The offered "protection" for a price. It was pretty funny. I don't think either team did anything wrong. The stupid move by the boys was keeping the same rediculous cab driver. :rolleyes: Go ahead and jump Chairo!  Jump-Jump-Jump-Jump...

Funnygirl, Lpatrick, it ain't gonna happen. I have a terrible phobia of bridges but heights come in a close second after opening a door at the top of one of the towers in Niagra Falls years ago and almost stepping out into nothing but air .... I guess that is why the sign said DO NOT OPEN DOOR!!!! But the elevator broke down and I was beginning to panic ... since then if a sign says don't open the door, I DO NOT open the door. Back to DWTS ... I too think Heather should be gone tonight. I haven't understood where her fan base has come from. But I think it is to the point all the rest HAVE to have more fans. |

The Yield was used to be placed one near the beginning of the race, and the other at the end, but this time, putting both near the end really utilizes it. It saves the "I choose not to Yield" kindness displayed by most of the teams at the start of each race. |
