Re: Monday, January 15, 1990 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
It’s been a pleasure watching these old games. The material has been watered down ever since Harry Friedman took over from George Vosburgh as executive producer. I liked it better the old way.

It was a thrill and an honor to meet him and shake his hand at the UTOC. After the quarterfinals taping day, the whole ga...

Anna Oblonsky is the maiden name of this title character Um, her maiden name was Anna Arkadyevna Oblonskaya, not Oblonsky—just as, on marrying Alexei Karenin, she became Anna Karenina. Can you explain that? Russian surnames have a masculine and a feminine form, the latter formed by suffixing -a to ...

Did anyone else notice this? Kimberly Flynn: 4800-4800=0 Lindsay Evans: 11400-1801=9599 Nick Klotz: 15400+7401=22801 (New Champ) Surely Lindsay meant to bet 1799, preserving a residue of 9601 in case of a miss and keeping Kimberly shut out if she doubles up to 9600. That would be a pretty shrewd wag...

Has Alex ever been this tutorial with betting advice before the FJ clue reveal? Maybe he's sick of bad wagering day after day after day. He might as well have filled out their bets - I don't think 3rd place has (correctly) bet zero in this situation in recent memory. On the contrary, it’s player B ...

Re: Wednesday, November 21, 2018 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
I was able to get both President's, since both Harrison and Taylor died very early into their presidential terms. My first thought was that Webster was a Whig, and the Whigs only ever won two presidential elections: Harrison in 1840 and Taylor in 1848. Realizing that both died in office, and both o...

good to see that champion was a one and doner I'm so glad you've added that thoughtful, incisive commentary to the discussion.

Well, that was a travesty! Just as TPH said upthread, that was one of the biggest scoring foul-ups I’ve ever seen. In the first place, they were right the first time to neg Hannah on “Marsh of Dreams.” Somnus doesn’t mean “dream,” it means “sleep.” And even if they were to accept “dreams” as a stret...

Re: Wednesday, September 19, 2018 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
First, let me say I thought this was a hard-fought, competitive game that any of the three players would have deserved to win. Yes, there were some big misses and the wagering was a bit sloppy, but Jordan, in particular, fought gamely all the way and would have been a worthy champion if the breaks h...

Sometimes I forget that it's not John Paul II so I can sympathize with him.
