Seeking6 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 No clue why people would leak or even discuss the leak when 98% of the country doesn't see the show until 7pm or 730 during the evening. Unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Just saying poor form guys. Leave it to an idiot like Darren Rovell to try and be the first at Noon today. Was kind of hoping it's common knowledge not to bring it here or anywhere on social media..... Lasted 30+ days without knowing how the show ended. Just didn't think I would see it here. Oh well.

milehiiu Posted June 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 After watching the show on Monday. i have got to say. Changing my opinion on the lady who beat Jeopardy James. She deserved the win. Kind of beat James at his very own game. AND, I will be watching on Tuesday, to see if it was a fluke... or if she is the real deal.

It's kind of like... pity the fool(s) who had to follow Knight at IU. Congrats to her. But talk about spoiling a good thing for me. I'm blaming this on Pat McAfee. LOL At least McAfee is entertaining. Not sure how, but I bet Mike Vanderjagt is at fault. Idiot kicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if they were looking for their smarter contestants to try and knock this guy off? Has to suck to lose when you don't even miss a question!

milehiiu Posted June 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 After being disappointed about James' loss ( though I expected it, but not before he amassed the all time winnings record). And learning about the lady who beat James. I must confess that I am looking forward to Tuesday's show. Can she unseat James? As they used to say : "Stay tuned."

And with winners like James and Ken Jennings, and hopefully their new gal champ, advertising revenues should help to pay for champs who win millions. One thing I know, as I have already stated. I will be watching on Tuesday night. To see how the gal who unseated James, does . And to cheer her on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
