So I was free to root for anyone in the finale. I liked the Cowboys because they never seemed to get down on themselves or anyone else. Dan and Jordan made the last, best move, getting up to First Class on the plane to San Francisco, which gave them enough of an edge to win. Brent and Caite overachieved, in my opinion. They finally made enough fatal mistakes to take themselves out early in the finale.
The reunion at Candlestick was too bad. Carol and Brandy should have been better sports: After all, their opinion of Brent and Caite before the race started was that they were young and dumb. During the race, they thought the models were young and dumb. And after the race, they thought the models were young and dumb. Carol couldn't seem to get over the fact that the models basically out-foxed them with the U-Turn. How do you avoid that? Beat 'em to the spot. Don't antagonize people. Lots of different ways. Carol's little tirade started off okay, but she went on too long, and turned it into a real personal attack. For all Caite's faults, she handled it better than I would have, and made Carol look petty.
