    Did anyone see the finale?

    $1 million dollars came down to a flight attendant allowing the brothers to sit in first class. I like how editing made the race look closer. When the models caught up to the cowboys at Lucasfilm, it was a done deal.

    The Cowboys were only about 15 minutes behind at the tower, but the fact that the winners had kept great notes let them breeze through that last challenge.

    They really need to make it harder to add more drama.

    I wanted the Cowboys to win, and thought the Lesbians were absolute witches with a "B".....they deserved to be eliminated for making snide comments.

    They should have learned a lesson...instead, bitterness reigned.

    Anyone believe this show is being rigged in some area? I'm pretty sure the taxi part are definitely being rigged in almost all the shows.

    worst finale ever.

    the challenges were lame and there was no drama at all. There should have been 3 different road blocks where teams had a chance to jockey from first to last and back again.

    As it was they should have just given the brothers the check when they moved up to first class and got off the plane first.

    Yeah, that was a VERY disappointing finale. All the challenges were so easy that whoever got off the plane first was pretty much guaranteed to win.

    How were those brothers able to move up to first class?

    In the past, it seems like the final leg of the race has been sort of like the crucible in marine boot camp. This time, it was just climb a tower, drag a chest across the street, get a cab to Candlestick Park....YOU WIN!!!!

    Lame.
