We Sure Know How To Pick ‘Em

I realized that I hadn’t picked my favorite team to win The Amazing Race Family Edition in the poll section. I had decided at the beginning of season to give it a couple of episodes to see which teams I want to put my faith in. Early favorites were the Gaghans, the Aiellos and possibly the Linzes.

Now the Aiellos are out so I’m left with the Gaghans and the Linzes. The Linz FamilyThe Linzes are a strong team. After their miscalculation in the Detour in the first leg, they have really improved and are now in third place. I think it’s only a matter of time that they will reach the mat first.

Plus they obviously look like they’re having a good time with the race.

The Gaghan Family The Gaghans are my sentimental favorite. I know that they are hampered by the kids in doing certain tasks but their “can do” spirit and encouragement of one another is great to see. Though since the second leg they’ve been perenially almost last I’m hoping that they can move forward in the rankings. They have some good skills - teamwork, map reading but they make some very basic bad decisions - you don’t spend 2 hours looking for a clue!

Who’s your favorite?

How can u explain that. And the weavers got ahead. Its great hoe u can do that after their father died. I mean when my dad went in the hospital I couldnt do n ything. Its so awsome.Oh yeah Rolly e-mail me and all u other people out their at mugwug_12_@hotmail.com

  37. Kelsey Says:

    Go Rolly! Luv ya!

  38. LJ Says:

    I love the weaver family. Juts because they are from my hometown and Rolly is in my class and if i dont want them to win he will be mad at me and not talk to me or hang out with me. But i wished the Gaghans would have one. J/K

  39. LJ Says:

    haha i mean won**

  40. Mel Says:

    I think The Weaver’s are pretty awesome. Expecially Rolly.. I think he’s pretty hot. But I think some of you guysa re nuts.. a little to obsesed with him, admit he’s hot and that’s all. The Weaver girl are pretty aweosme too, just because they do horseback riding and so do I. Luckily they kicked ass at the cattle driving road block.

    So I say “Go for it, Weavers! Especially Rolly!”
    Mel

  41. Mel Says:

    Oh by the way, wouldn’t mind to get to you know you, Rolly… If you see this. Add me on Msn… ponygirl1@cogeco.ca

  42. Penguinfinatic Says:

    I’m rotting for the Weavers. I LOVE Rolly! He is the cutest, hotest, Finest, boy alive! I’m fine with the others even thought the rest of the Weavers could get annoying at times, but Rolly’s good looks and shy,quiet cuteness covers it up! I LOVE YOU ROLLY!!!!! BEST OF LUCK!!!

  43. LISA Says:

    I Love Rolly! He’s soooooooo cute Go Weavers!!!!!!!

  45. Licia Says:

    OMG ROLLY IS SOOOOOOO HOTT!!…gosh..i love him:D

  46. Zach Says:

    The Weavers suck. They almost tie for the most annoying family (Godlewski’s are 1st) in the entire race. They complain that all the other teams hate them for their “Christian” lifestyle, yet they partake in the same things they complain about. I just saw the preview for the next episode and I wish that Linz brother would of broken Rolly’s neck when they collided. I bet they’re dad is glad he got hit by that car, because now he doesn’t have to deal with the rest of his annoying family.

    (By the way, in her suit against the Daytona Speedway, did you know that Linda Weaver complained that the CAR WAS TRAVELING TOO FAST? IT’S A FRICKIN RACE YOU IDIOT!)

    The only supporters of the Weaver family are made up of little girls who like Rolly. And they’re support consists mostly of “WOMG ROLLY IS LIK3 TEH HAWTN3SS!!

    I honestly hope the Weavers search sites like this out, to get an idea of what people think of them. God does not favor you over anyone else. He is not concerned with who wins a million dollars on a reality show. God is not on the Weaver’s side anymore than he is on anyone else’s side.

    On second thought, the mom is ugly, the girls are fat, and the kid is annoying. Maybe God is pulling for you after all..

  47. Zach Says:

    *Their

    As the Weaver’s would say, typos are the “devil’s minions.”

  48. Zack Attack Says:

    hey Zach
    I believe you that the Godlewski’s are the most annoying family, but everything else you said wasn’t true. I hope that Rolly breaks your neck! I think that it is mean that you said that about their dad! That was rude! Your just jealous of Rolly that he’s hot and you are probably not. There are a lot of people out there who like the kid, not just girls who are obsessed with him. Now go home and drown yourself before Rolly breaks your neck!!! And start spelling your name right you moron! Now, go home and drown your sorrows in a good Samuel Adams beer, you Loser!

  49. Karmen Says:

    WEAVER FAMILY ALL THE WAY. It’s unbelievable to me how obnoxious and judgemental EVERYONE ELSE is being about the Weaver family’s faith. Being a Christian doesn’t mean you’re perfect. They’re just a family trying to make it in this crazy world and trying for a shot at a million dollars. So what if they pray about it! And don’t be fooled into believing that God is NOT on their side. He is on their side whether they win or lose. My last comment is for “Zach”… you should be ashamed of yourself for saying such mean and hateful things. Either you have no conscience, or no heart… my guess is that you’re missing both. It also sounds like you have a classic case of jealously when it comes to little Rolly. He captured my heart as well and I’m a married woman! TAKE IT ALL THE WAY WEAVER FAMILY! I applaud you’re efforts and wish you much success in this new chapter of your lives… with or without the money. With love from Aspen, CO

    my goodness u people must really like rolly!!! ive never seen so many emails about him! my friend told me about this website and shes embaressed (did i spell that right?) to leave her own comments. first of all that ws MEAN what u said about his father zach!i was glad when i read zack attacks email on u! u probably r a drunk!!! anyway… i think the weavers should win now that the gaghan family is gone and it must suck having all those other teams hate u just because u are christian. i felt so bad for them when thy got yielded cuz i thought the linzes should have gotten yielded the 1st time! its the best choice!!! please rolly if u see this comment email me at caseybgenuis@yahoo.com cuz my friend candy is afraid to leave her email address. when me and candy turn 21 we r gonna try out for the race! i hope the show isnt canceled by then cuz im 14 and i hafta wait 7 years!!! does anyone else think it should be lowerd to 18? i do!

  53. Weaver Fan All Da Way! Says:

    Personally, I REALLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYY want the Weavers to win. Despite some of their rude comments towards the other teams (which were really funny ;) ) I think they deserve the 1 million dollar prize the most. Oh and Rachel, (if you read this) when you said “I would be crying if I didn’t have a Big Mac in my hand” I totally burst out in laguhter lol. That’s an awsome quote! Should be on those Mc Donald’s commercials instead of all that “I’m Lovin’ it” crap with some clown dancing around.

    OHHHHH AND PLEASE IF ANY WEAVERS READ THIS PLEASE ADD:

    porkchop_botelho@hotmail.com

    to your MSN or feel free to send me an e-mail. I’m a HUGE fan of yours. I hope you win the race! Final episode this week… W00000T ;)

  54. James Says:

    Hey Weavers!! I hope you all win the race! It shows that you are all determined and work really hard. Don’t let any of those crazy teams bring you down, you are really good, honest, friendly people. Linda, you are an amazingly strong mother, I give you so much credit for being so supportive and strong. Rachael, you are also a very strong, determined person. Rebecca, you seem like a very hard working and strong-willed person as well. And then of course ther’s Rolly. Dont worry im not here to shout out about you being hot, in fact im a 14 year old teen just like you. You are very optimisic and hard working, you make us 14 year olds look good! IM me sometime buddy. Good luck to you all, you are the only family who deserves to win The Amazing Race!!

    weavers from day 1. never doubt in your abilities. sickest team ever. and for the bastard above that said linda was stupid for pressing changes on a driver for going to fast, well when a caution flag is out you got to go slower than 100 mph. so i’d press charges too. GOOD LUCK WEAVERS!! rolly win it for the fans!

  60. L.H. Says:

    I like the weavers and am rooting for them..but i really think the linzes will win. i don’t understand why people hate the weavers so much. what’s so hateful about a family that’s father died and they went on the amazing race. they’re only mean and annoying because the other teams hate them so much. if they didn’t, the weavers would be nice.
    well my predictions are..
    1st-linz
    2nd-weaver
    3rd-bransen
