Well, the Tournament of Champions, yeah. But he's said that he doesn't want to go on any more game shows, he seems the laid-back type. |

I've been following Jennings' streak for a while... It almost seemed like that game was stacked against him. Some of the categories made almost no sense. They were on sports (which has been a weakness of Jennings for some reason), Seinfeld (wtf?), and hats. Fucking hats. That category was where he lost the most money, too. Ken Jennings lost to hats. That's pretty humiliating, if you ask me.
Still, I say the game was stacked. |

Truth be told, I hadn't even thought of that, but your'e right. Where will Jennings strike next?

My mom took to calling him "The Misfit Dentist", because he apparently looked like the character of the same name. I wouldn't know, personally. |

Ten Bucks this guy's gonna be one of People Magazine's 25 Most Intriguing People along with Lyndie England and Michael Jackson.

That guy looked like a possessed Keebler Elf. He really scared me, but in a way he was cute in that whitebread Father Knows Best sorta way.
I even knew the damn question. |

While I can't say this rips my would in two, it is a little momentous.
Hey, at least I'll remember this little factoid when I go on Jeopardy 2010...  |

I was surprised myself. Mainly because the last time reports went out saying "This is the week Jennings loses", well, as I told my mom that week, "Well, it's Friday, and he's up by about $35000 going into Final Jeopardy..."
Suffice to say he did not blow that lead. |

Losing by a few thousand in Final Jeopardy isn't getting owned. |

Good for him (yes, even if he lost). He got OWNED fair and square. |

It seems to me he actually lost fair and square, not on purpose. |

The guy on Jeopardy that won so many games in a row? I don't know if you've seen him on TV or not, but either he decided to leave the show, or he got booted out |

I think that it is a ploy for ratings, but hey. |
