I got that first round DD because that was one of my nicknames back in the day, a reference to my Irish temper. lol. I hope Isaac has better luck with the DD’s in the finals.
On another note, it doesn’t really bother me when Ken gives a more correct pronunciation of a response after the player like he did with the last name of actor Milo in the Italian category today. It did tick me off, though, when he didn’t do it for the French author of Boule de Suif. Guy in English rhymes with “buy”. In French, Guy rhymes with “see”.
