Though Ellen has Andy, her husband of a year, she finds herself thinking about Leo more and more since they passed eac...

Both Jody Swamp and Travis Back stayed close to Jackson and had a number of opportunities to get by throughout the race but it seemed each time that Swamp and Back reeled in Louie; he would put ju...
