Get ready, because Team Haliochoeres Bivittatus is coming.  Shoe and I are going to trounce all you fools.

Is that a gay thing?

Wait til we get into the Olympics. Curling!

I actually told myself that the first thing I did when I retired back home to Wisconsin, was to join a curling club and learn to curl!  In reality, after 5 months of retirement, I've managed to do...nothing.  Sleeping in is fun, when you've been used to getting up early since you were 5, but need to start doing...something.

Goat and I will be Team Family Fued

me and usfbully will be The Double B's

me and bjschumacher are going with "Team Idol Threats"

I think we can all agree that the natural team name for Tropicana and Tubby is "TnT".  Either that or "Kathleen Turner Overdrive", but for the first challenge only we will be called "Barry Jive and the Uptown Five".

Geos and I will go with Stagos

And now onto the teams. You will be in 15 teams of two. First I must say this. polabonez used the Amazing Race power of the Helga Hufflepuff idol which states:

Amazing Race: Pick six of the Amazing Race teams, including your own.

These are the six teams that polabonez set up.

1) sjurat & Arfy
2) mb625 & fastec27
3) stalagna & geos
4) tubby7242 & tropicana
5) osgonlz & shlog3131
6) polabonez & horvie78

And the other nine teams:

7) csudak & ahrens
8) thebish & usfbully
9) onside & shoe21
10) da_goat & golfpro71
11) hookemhorns7 & wildpike
12) psap & bjschumacher
13) hardknox23 & coachbug
14) 2chair & primetime27
15) e3racer & katzphang88

Please come up with a name for your duo. I reserve the right to alter the name slightly for my own amusement

Ha ha!  Screw you Polabonez!  Don't think I don't know what you did there!  lol

I have accepted some names and adjusted others for my own amusement. There are still a few teams with names to come. So, here is what I have so far:

3) stalagna & geos -- Team Stagos
4) tubby7242 & tropicana -- Kathleen Turner Overdrive

I like our Latin one better!

Yeah but it just meant Slippery D*ck anyway and it was spelled wrong lol

And if you can't spell it, I didn't think I would get it right very often.

So first Roadblock. This is due by 3 a.m. tonight or Early Saturday morning, however you want to look at it. I need one entry for each of the 15 teams.

Predict the total number of games that the losing player will win at the

1) Australian Open Women's Final (Saturday 3:30 a.m.)
2) Australian Open Men's Doubles Final (Saturday 5:30 a.m.)
3) Australian Open Men's Final (Sunday 3:30 a.m.)

For each game you are off for the Women's Final, you will be assigned 10 seconds of time
For each game you are off for the Men's Doubles, you will be assigned 5 seconds of time
For each game you are off for the Men's Final, you will be assigned 15 seconds of time.

I understand this is a quick turnover. So I have two deadlines.
The soft deadline is 3 a,m. Saturday morning for all three.
The hard deadline is 3 a.m. Sunday morning for the Men's final

Anyone who misses the soft deadline will be assigned 6 games as their answer for both the Women's Final and the Men's Doubles (basically predicting 6-3, 6-3)
Anyone who misses the hard deadline will be assigned a time of 15 minutes, and will probably be way behind coming into the Detour.

That's 3:00 am Eastern. Correct?

Ours got changed too:-( :-( :-( :-( sad day.
