CBS video: Tammy & Victor
----
Finally, the last team that I get to preview (purely by randomized order) before "The Amazing Race 14" are the lawyers/siblings Tammy & Victor from California.
The pair are actually the second duo of Harvard law graduates to find themselves on TAR, following in the tradition of TAR3's Heather & Eve. While siblings Nick & Starr did win on TAR13, I wonder if these two lawyers may find themselves closer to their TAR3 counterparts unfortunate results.
----
Tammy & Victor are highly competitive and highly intelligent with exceptionally strong work ethics. None of that can be questioned, all of which should help while racing on TAR14.
Their issues though seem to be in terms of the team dynamic. Both siblings seem to be in some kind of control game with Victor wanting to exert control and Tammy trying to get out from under it. Substitute the name Tammy with Nikki and we could recycle another plotline from "The Young & The Restless."
----
What could be worse for the team, their team bio describes what would seem to be completely discordant plans for strategy with Victor wanting to be a Rob & Amber-style cutthroat while Tammy seeks to emulate the laid back TK & Rachel. I don't mind a team going in with a strategic plan in mind but two separate strategic plans at odds with each other makes no sense.
Finally, travel experience doesn't seem up to par for this sibling team. Victor thinks there is a country called Africa. Sigh. Do I even need to write anymore here? Tammy and Victor's strengths could carry them a distance but this seems like one of those teams with the potential to self-immolate straight out of the race.
