In the question about Paul Walker, I can’t believe they accepted Yogesh’s response of “Fast and Furious”. As far as I know, there is no “Fast and Furious” film franchise.
Perhaps I’m nitpicking, perhaps I’m anti-Yogesh.
I just put it into Wikipedia, and got “Fast & Furious, also known as Fast and Furious, is a film franchise”. It also said something to the effect of, “also known as ‘The Fast and The Furious ‘.”
With the DDs coming in a timely manner, it appears that the status quo in this tourney is “all in”. They all realize that it’s win or go home. There’s none of the fiddling around, trying to come up with a clever wager, which fails as much as works.
I think my channel guide gave it away, but, I won’t say today.
Pretty good game, even though it was a runaway. A few blown responses, but not too many stumpers. FJ stumped me, but knew all 3 DDs. For a moment I thought Troy wasn’t going to get that middle DD.
Well of course I knew that, and which explained why I failed to come up with the correct response for FJ.
