Sunday at 8 p.m. (or after football and '60 Minutes') the Emmy-winning reality show "The Amazing Race" returns to CBS. Can you believe it's the 15th edition?
From what I can tell they've pulled together a strong group of racers; it's definitely the most physically fit group. No one looks even a little pudgy.
Now of course, we know mental stamina plays a big role in the Race, as does luck. But if you can't run, jump, climb, and sometimes swim, you're in trouble.
Beyond that, it's a cool mix of people. Among them: two Harlem Globetrotters, a pair of female poker players, country songwriters, a young man with Asperger's syndrome, a former Miss America (who is in an interracial relationship), and two gay brothers. And there's no jiggly bottle-blonde team!
I can't wait. Look for our recaps.
