Alex: Dennis, I would say you got off to a slow start, but that might be an understatement. :o If you don't like what the host says then do something about it. Dennis did just that winning both the DJ! and FJ! rounds. Easily. Quite a comeback. I was rooting for another 5 day champ, but we'll see wh...

Priscilla might just be the most nervous J! contestant I've ever seen. My goodness that was sad to watch. When I saw the spelling bee category pop up, I initially cursed under my breath for not memorizing the more recent winners, but no, it was just another reminder of how easy the words used to be,...

I don't think I've uttered the words "holy $#*!" so many times in an hour of J!. Wasn't expecting Ken to go all-in on the first FJ, and wasn't expecting James to miss the second. Congrats to Ken. FINALLY won a big match. Despite what Alex said, I don't actually believe this is the last time we'll se...

Wish I could say that I got FJ right due to some deep geographical knowledge, but honestly I just closed my eyes and pictured the world map, thought about where an uninhabited island the size of WV would be, and Canada jumped out. I'll take it. Anagrams, vowels, and books/TV were $9k in free money, ...

Ravens with the glass jaw. Unreal. I thought for sure this year's Super Bowl would be some combination of Rodgers/Brees vs Mahomes/Jackson. Could still get GB/KC, but with a round and a half to go, Tannehill vs Garoppolo is still in play

Never seen or read Catch-22
Only seen it spelled "fogey", but convinced myself it must be right anyway.

That damn Instagream FJ still annoys me.

Losing in the palyoffs always sucks; being surrounded by jubilant 49ers fans probably doesn't help. Sorry Mark.

What the...who gives a !*&*($#@#($)(!( how many followers on....fine. OK 185M, gotta be a soccer player, it's either Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo...Ronaldo, whatever. I got it right and I still hate this FJ. I guess we're lucky it wasn't an even lazier clue about Pele or Beckham, although "Int'...

Nothing fancy, nothing flashy, just slow steady domination. I could get used to this.

Not sure what it says about me, but the bible birds were miles over my head (1/5), while that hip-hop feuds category was an easy 5/5

Instaget FJ.

More overtime playoff football. I approve.

Bet that pass to Thielen put a smile on Mark's face. Or a celebratory yell and fist pump. Whichever. On to SF.

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( :mrgreen: :( :( :( :mrgreen: :( :( :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: JK's AKA is something that I've encountered multiple times before, but just hasn't "stuck", like the names and faces of most Canadian PMs 'Chilean Nobel poet' and (Operation) Desert ...

I'm gonna sound like TPH here, but Rachel Platten seemed obscure for the top box. She only appears one other time in the Archive, for the exact same thing, and was a bottom-row clue. (A contestant got it, but it was more recent then) I sure as hell didn't remember who she was (but tbh I never liked...

The New York Times posted a quiz where you attempt to identify 52 celebs, politicians, and athletes from their photos alone.

So lemme see if I have this right (I stopped watching Survivor a decade ago): Woman ("and several others") complains about inappropriate touching; accused stays in the game. Woman complains weeks (or however long 8 episodes takes) later that the touching is still happening ; accused stays in the gam...

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer started as....OK then.
My love of sports does not extend to college football, and while I can name teams and whatnot, fight song lyrics ain't happening.

'Retired Sports Team Numbers' was a category I could sink my teeth into. Naturally, the players avoided it until almost no other clues were left. Easy run of the category. I ran that category, and sports generally is a nightmare category for me. Those were either easy clues or I'm improving a lot. ...

That DD was yet another football clue where I would've passed out from shock had the contestant gotten it right. "It's Not Rocket Science" was the crappiest, laziest category in a while. Please don't do anything like that again, J! writers. Barbarians + movie stars? Gotta be Monaco. ........... .......

2019 NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC TRAVEL PHOTO CONTEST, $800: "Vultures can soar gracefully for hours and are classified, along with hawks and eagles, as these, from the Latin for "to seize"" Mohammed: What are birds of prey ?

Did Alex forget to specify that each correct response would start with OP? That 'light opera' reversal caught me off guard. Instaget FJ. I actually thought this Martin Luther/95 Theses clue was easier than the last one , but it technically ends up a single get. I wonder if "Luther's list of complain...

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :?: 4-letters + jeans? LEVI 2 'monosyllable' words + FDR + 1932? Still trying to wrap my head around that being a TS (IIRC their "success pattern" was actually 2-0-0-1-0 -> 3/15) 'plastics' instaget followed by repeating '1941' ag...
