‘The Amazing Race: All-Stars’ 2014 Finale Preview and Prediction

Tonight is the season finale of "The Amazing Race: All Stars."  Three teams remain, who will win?  Plus, what's behind the show's Las Vegas teases?  Let's jump into it!

A little background, this award winning CBS reality show is a race between teams of two.  On each episode, we watch teams compete in various challenges as they travel around the world.  There are "legs" of the race established and this where last place teams are eliminated.  Contestants on this season are being called "all-stars," since they have been on the show before.  Yet, all of them lost on previous races.

Tonight, the final three teams are competing in the last leg of the race, which takes them to Las Vegas.  We'll watch the father-son team of Dave and Connor, the country singing duo of Caroline and Jen, and the couple Brandon and Rachel (or "Brenchels").

The master illusionist David Copperfield stands in the way of the teams and the grand prize of one million dollars!  Yes, the magic man himself has been enlisted to present a challenge to the teams.  EW caught up with David Copperfield to explain the escape challenge, “It’s an escape that deals with time, with physical challenges, with endurance, with cleverness, and something that’s very death-defying.”

Below, watch a video clip preview of the Copperfield created challenge.

Okay, it's time for my bold prediction. If you follow my blogs, you know, I am an awesome predicting machine! Beware Las Vegas. Ha! I'm joking. I say that because last summer at Tuscaloosa Amphitheater, I had a listener and her friends call out my failed predictions. This included picking the wrong "Amazing Race" team to win last spring and as crazy as this sounds, picking the wrong NCAA Basketball Tourney champ last year. Sure, sure. That's the past.

I'm here to tell you who win tonight. Let me break it down like this, the "Brenchels" have a horrible time following directions, either in tasks or driving. We've seen it more than once, they don't pay attention to details and it costs them precious time. The country singers have been outright lucky to stay alive. Have they finished any leg first? Try, they have been last two times and have been saved by "non-elimination" legs of the race. This leaves father-son duo of Dave and Connor. I'm not saying they win by default. The bad tendencies of the others will only help what is already a strong team. As the race moved around the world, and the 59 year-old was holding up physically, they became one of the teams to beat.

Besides, the teases of the "Brenchels" saying that they have to win the race so they can have a baby is annoying. What if they loose, forget no baby ever? I don't think so. The country singers are so like-able, but they really shouldn't be in the finals. Tonight, Dave will wear us down with reminders of his age. Give it to him though, the race isn't easy and you have to be fit to endure it. Dave and Connor will own the bragging rights when they win "The Amazing Race." What do you think?

Watch "The Amazing Race: All Stars" season finale Sunday night (May 18) at 7pm in Tuscaloosa on WIAT-TV 42.
