Rebecca does look incredible! And the fact that she started bawling as she finished that half marathon makes me love her even more! She's so inspiring to me because I'm going to do a half marathon in June.

I really just can't stand liz and her heavy accent. She should have went home and I think that Rudy is changing. He started out as a sweetheart and now he's ....getting slimy....ick...

I cried when Rebecca started crying when she finished her run up! haha I cry atleast weekly watching TBL! Im sure my SO thinks Im a nut case! =P I just cant wait to have that moment. Ive always wanting to be a runner and I can totally relate to how she feels.

Rudy was DEF playing the game this week. He pulled that whole trust thing out of his rear unless I just missed something but Im glued to the TV every week so iunnno.

Im excited for next week!

I can't see anyone with Daniel. He seems so ... I don't even know how to say it. Just like someone who would never have a girlfriend.

I think Daniel seemed to have grown a lot during the previous season. He came back this time with more determination then the first time. Plus he was so sweet and caring to Shay. I can see why Rebecca would like a nice, sensitive guy.

I am happy for them.

That's really too bad because I'm sure there are some of us here who have similar accents

He does seem slightly immature but then again she says she fell in love with her best friend. I wish them both all the best. I love Rebecca.
I dont know who I'm rooting for now. Allen is so mellow but at least he's not so outwardly ANNOYING to me like Rudy and Liz are to me at the moment.

They definitely took out the "fun" in the group. The "young" group is gone who makes me laugh.

If Liz pullls the age card one more time I'm gonna scream. "She's 25... I'm 49 ...I have 20 good years ahead of me and I want to make them count.. she has her whole life ahead of her.. blah blah blah" ugh cry me a river...
SHOW ME THE NUMBERS

Rudy couldn't even look Rebecca in the eye when she was speaking to him. YOU CAN TELL he feels guilty but he did what he had to do. He was pulling excuses out of his butt for sure.

aww I heart Liz. I would love to see her win. I was rooting for Rebecca, but now I'll root for Liz.

and I know I cry every episode as well. it just gets to me!!
and does anyone else there is something going on with Bob and Amanda? The little looks, how the camera always pans to him when talking to/about Amanda. and how the little touch and smile he gave her before leaving elimination. . .. . just what Im thinking..

mickey - Yes! I totally agree with you about Bob and Amanda. It's the little things like looks and the fact that last week while Jillian was arguing that they should focus on Shay since she needs to be here the most, he was doing the same thing about Amanda, even saying that you form special bonds with certain people when talking about her. I'm just waiting for them to admit they're seeing each other. And I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.

Really? Bob and Amanda? I always thought Bob was gay! I've spent my fair share of time with gay men (I did theater) and he screams "gay man" to me.

Maybe I'm totally wrong though, lol.

Rebecca looked hot on Jay Leno. I am so happy for her!

I guess we can't know for sure but I'd be willing to bet money that Bob is gay.

I cry the entire episode while watching TBL. I am from Tennessee and do have an accent but it is amplified on TV and I think Liz plays the sweet southern gal and old lady card too much. I thought REbecca looked amazing and I think all their speeches were inspirational.

Bob and Amanda- I think it is more brother/sister than lover.

Yes, I read an interview with him, Bob is gay. He always seems to have one woman that he's close too, I guess this time it's Amanda.
