Are Rob and Amber really ...

Question: Are Rob and Amber really included in the upcoming all-star edition of The Amazing Race? I get why CBS would do this, but haven't they gone to that well too many times? They have each been on Survivor twice, then again on The Amazing Race and on a CBS special about their wedding. To make matters worse, they had an unfair advantage during their time on The Amazing Race because people recognized and helped them on many legs of the competition. How is that fair to the far less recognizable racers? Seriously, enough is enough for these D-List "celebs"! I'm not going to tune in just to root against them. In fact, I've decided to skip the next season altogether, at least until they are Philiminated!
Answer: I have yet to see an official cast list for the all-star running of the Race, but everyone here who follows such rumors seems to think that this is probably true. And I see no reason to doubt it, seeing how CBS' reality franchises have fed on each other before. They're not enough to keep me away from Race, which has rebounded so greatly this season. But my natural resistance to all-star versions of reality shows turns into actual revulsion when I think of this obnoxious couple getting another shot in the spotlight. Enough already!
