TAR 4/14: "My Cheese Is Out Of Control"

Placeholder!

Remember a couple of seasons back when teams had to lug huge wheels of cheese up a steep hill and had to slide them down using wheelbarrows or some such other thing(s)? They’re revisiting the task – this time, in snow :brrrrr:

Oh, there may be delays on the East coast due to the Masters.

Yeah, I saw the previews and kind of yelped, 'The cheese is back!" Hope there are lots of snickering Swiss watching them crash-land…

There will be delays now that there’s a tie.

I can’t wait for the cheese as well, that was so funny the last time!

7:30 Eastern and they’re on the 2nd hole of the playoff.

And the Masters is over, guessing they’ll start 60 Minutes at 7:45 or so.

It’s 7:50 and they’re still blathering on about freaking golf. And we still have to get through 60 Minutes.

Who was it a few weeks ago that commented that the world could be coming to an end and CBS would **still **show 60 Minutes in its entirety? I’d laugh, but I’m sitting here screaming at the golf people to just shut the hell up.

Geez, even the basketball and football didn’t make it start an hour late!

Ah geez, just realized my local CBS station is showing the Spurs at 8pm (Central), so AR will get aired sometime after midnight here. Wonderful.

Probably me. I seem to remember posting something like that.

And the official word is 8:59PM for the beginning of TAR.

You know, I always like to root for the underdog, and was really wanting to give Chuck and Wynonna a chance, but good God almighty, she’s a whiny little bitch.

Sometimes they have to go back and properly complete a task, and sometimes they just get a time penalty. What determines which one happens?

In this case, the sheer impossibility of Wynona getting up that hill again.

Not to mention the very real possibility of acute altitude sickness if she tried.

:smiley: I didn’t even think of that…

I thought about this the first time they did the “get the cheese down the hill” task and again tonight. WHY would you store your cheese half a mile from your barn up a 60 degree grade?

That’s where the space aliens deliver it. They are afraid of barns.

Maybe the extra bit of altitude helps with the aging process? Yeah, I got nothing…

Don’t knock it, it got them on TAR twice.

You know, sometimes I chuckle at how bent out of shape people get in the TAR threads when the show is pushed back because of a football or basketball game running late. I guess that’s because I like football and basketball and so I don’t mind it that much. But I hate golf on TV and I hate Jim Nantz even more, so tonight after watching the playoff round of the Masters and listening to all of his post-tournament blather I found myself yelling at the TV “Get ON with it! Nobody CARES!” So… yeah I guess now I know how you people feel.

As for Chuck and Wynona,

they pretty much foreshadowed their last place finish in the first five minutes with the “we’re starting to race better now” comment. I knew at that moment that they were doomed.

And no one wants to see Chuck stick his head up Wynona’s HooHaa again!
