I didn’t read any of y’all’s comments, but I can guess. I was 2/3 on DD and got FJ. This was one of the worst games since the COVID LA locals 6 years ago. Andrew, especially, didn’t look like the guy on fire we knew. The woman from the Teacher’s Tournament, I don’t even remember her. I think Chuck Forrest was the only person from the distant past held up his end (last year).
Also, the Russian comrade TS, Ken’s pronunciation was off – the emphasis should be on the 3rd syllable.
It was another splendid game, and Andrew pulled off a spectacular win. As for the FJ, it was all too evident.
Close game, but I was unimpressed. Too many wrong answers (some unintentionally funny ones) and stumpers. In a matter of seconds, we had a $5 DD wager and an all-in one. I almost never get to say this, but I thought all 3 DDs were easy enough (OK, not so much the first, which I knew, but the other 2 were). I completed the grand slam by getting Final about halfway through.
Even this heathen figured out the last word in the Bible. Someone should have known Kamala’s book. The $600 Bible clue was easy and was NOT a stumper. I should have known the journalist/NCAA co-founder because our local HS was renamed after that person a few years ago.
I agree with most of your points, Howard. On the Harris book, though, I thought they might have known it from seeing the title in headlines etc., but didn’t want to take a chance on misremembering the last digit.
The right title popped into my head but I didn’t say it out loud for that very reason.
Fair enough, but even before the book came out, she and TV folks repeatedly mentioned the exact length of her campaign, and the book did hit the bestseller list. Frankly, I wish our campaigns lasted weeks, like other countries, instead of a year. I never bought her excuse for the short duration.
We are now 0-for-6 on the DDs this week.

To win a tournament game played by former Jeopardy champions on $11,200 (counting the missed Daily Doubles at face value) in triple stumpers alone probably doesn’t happen often for armchair players
You mean Drew Basile, not Goins because Goins has advanced to the semifinals yesterday. Basile is on the bubble right now with 7,200. Second day in a row where we had a low scoring game and all 3 daily doubles were mixed. At least we got a triple solve today and there are two more quarterfinals left. Karen is well-positioned at the top of the wild card list.
Yes, It’s Basile. I got them mixed up.
