Yeah that leaked a few weeks ago. I wouldn't look at it for the longest time, but it's about time, I suppose.

Fuck Alex Trebek. Just let Ken Jennings host the show.

I think they should go back to allowing no more than a five-time champ and then let them compete again later in the tournament of champions.

While many people knew this, it's still a spoiler to some. Maybe a warning next time?

Yeah I realize it might be a spoiler. But at this point dont people want him to lose? However, I changed the title of the post. Hope that helps. I assume though if you follow Ken Jennings and you see the word SPOILER on the post that might tip you off that it means hes going to lose. Since it wouldnt be a spoiler to say that he keeps winning more money (i.e. business as usual).

I'm bored with Ken. If the games were competitive, that would be another story. I don't like seeing a blowout every day.

I've heard that he's married and has a kid or two. That could be wrong, but if that's the case, yeah, I think it's safe to assume he's had a fuck or two.
