They’re doing open audtions here in Philly on Friday. Anyone want to hook up with an out-of-shape middle-aged woman? We could present ourselves as fellow dopers…

I am thrilled to hear it is coming back. That being said I hope casting is a bit more successful than last year. I am not asking for much, just someone I can really hate.

I’ve caught a few episodes of “The Wild Rules” on ESPN. A coworker suggested that I might like “Amazing Race” because they are similar, but he has never seen either show. Can anyone give me the dope?
