The first time Boston Rob went on TAR there was a Roadblock eating challenge (the last time they did one IIRC) where he realized that there was no way he was going to complete it - so he just stood up and quit in the middle of the Roadblock and took the penalty and spent the next 30 minutes of the penalty convincing 2-3 other teams to do the exact same thing; and at least one guy followed suit. As a result, he guaranteed another team would be behind him and he was not eliminated.
I could be wrong, but I pretty distinctly remember the whole sequence of events - it was some meat eating challenge in South America with all kinds of beef and sausages, etc. And, I remember Phil congratulating him on the strategy and Rob crowing about how he was able to manipulate people.

I'm pretty sure the achievement was for being the first team to make it through an entire leg and take a 2 hr penalty without completing ANY challenges (since they used the Express Pass on the first, and ran out of bottles on the 2nd)...

I'm a bit behind on my DVR watching, but I just saw the one where the team made the fire instead of making the solar array and I like it that they were able to beat everybody else by doing that.

The Army pilot was in full asshat mode last night too about the FastForward, but his delivery was completely worth it, or was I the only one laughing my ass off at his commentary: "Land a helicopter... hm, me being a helicopter pilot, I seem to be fairly well equipped to do that..."

Shame on TAR producers for bring such a lame contestant whodoesn't realize how lucky she is to be on the show. Why didn't she just use her own money to travel for free around the world without annoying the viewers.
Speaking of the Big Brother alumns, when is CBS going to understand that viewers really don't want to see reality contestants going on multiple shows, especially if they've won?!
As for favorites, the Combat pilot & wife, the twins, and the Border Patrol agents seem to have the right mix to make it far, though the FBI chicks could take it all the way if there isn't an eating or stength challenge.
I just want the guido's to go already and the clowns seem particularly clueless, but to introduce yourself to the audience by admitting that you stalked your husband while he was married is truly a new level of creepy.

CBS is adding drama via annoying ppl to drum up ratings and it sucks.
