THERE ARE TEAMS AT THE ROADBLOCK NOT MOVING BECAUSE YOU CONVINCED THEM NOT TO MOVE. HOW DO YOU DO THAT? Within twenty-four hours, we will know who has wonthe seventh season of The Amazing Race.

So before we get there, I want to ask: how does this season compare to previous ones? And how do you feel about the changes in this season (a celebrity team, a non-circumnavigatory route, less gross eating and less airport strategery) carrying forward into future Races?

For me, regardless of tomorrow's outcome, this has been a good season -- some fun teams (the brothers, Romber, the much missed biker brothers Ryan and Chuck), some good challenges (balance it or milk it?) and strategery (all of which revolved around Romber), but nothing jaw-droppingly-unbelievable. (Honestly, for emotional impact this reality season, it's all about The Contender.)

The first three seasons set an impossibly high standard, and a merely "good" season of the Race is still better than almost anything else out there. And there has never been a bad finale, so Tuesday night is an absolute must-see for everyone. Who ya got?
