This is JEOPARDY: Semifinals (SPOILERS)

Andromache is leading off round two tonight in the Jeopardy College Championship.  DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU WANT TO WATCH IT FRESH AS THERE ARE POTENTIAL SPOILERS! (Check Local Listings)

She did us proud in the Quarterfinals.   Tonight we learn about the lamp she made out of a blender.

Her opponents are desperately hoping that there will be no questions about poetry tonight!  Go Tara!  (She's the one in the Spartans sweatshirt, if you are just joining us)

she said alex only asked her about two things

does this mean it’s the end of red reporter on jeopardy tonight?

(I hope not)

In the end, life and business are about human connections. And computers are about trying to murder you in a lake. And to me the choice is easy.

So what happens now?

Is it over for you, or is there a wild card type deal?

Good effort

That was a competitive match. I like that you went down swinging with baseball. Shoutout!

Good job!

I felt like tonight’s show was much harder than the first round, but you still kicked ass. That FJ question was TOUGH. I thought you had her with the wager, but alas it wasn’t to be. Still, $10k is some serious cheese. Congrats!

You did really well

The final jeopardy had to be either be boxing or baseball, and you went after the sport that still matters. Also I have a question: was it just me or was the Marquette girl a giant bitch? I just got that vibe big time.

I kind of picked up on that too

Like she was a little too proud/entitled about her own accomplishments, coupled with a kind of fake modesty. “I won? I certainly never expected that I would win. Everyone must be so happy for me.”

i hate marquette

Suprisingly I dont

I hate that theyve whooped us several times in the tournament, but there is the great Al Mcguire quote about UK something like “Theyve been there before us and they will be there long after us”

by johnny cueto thinks we're sellouts on May 12, 2008 11:53 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

that quote is nice, but it's from before my time

and they’ve ousted pitino, tubby, and gillispie from the tournament

two of those teams were championship caliber

Did you see the Lebron blow up tonight?

“Sit down, mom!”

Fucking hysterical.

The 2003 team was magical

And the quote was also before my time, as I am the young one here. I didnt cry but I was about as upset as I could get and retain my masculinity when Keith wasn’t able to play that game. I ended up being more upset when Dwayne Wade had his triple double but now I think karma is getting him back on that one.

Also A Sea of Blue has now upgraded

I think we should attempt to take it over and make it halfway cool next season.

that marquette game from 03 stings more than any other loss i've witnessed

I think Danielle was just a little wound up,

She was really intense and focused on the game, and I think that came across as stiffness. In general though, she was nice.

It WAS a bit of a hard loss for me, mostly because I made two big mistakes in the game (Magna Carta daily double and not buzzing on the last clue – tanzania) AND because the FJ was a triple stumper. For whatever reason, it would have been easier for me if SOMEONE had gotten the final jeopardy right.

Everybody's a jerk. You. Me. This jerk.

re:

Obviously I’m biased, but from the moment I “met” her I didn’t like MarquetteGirl. Way to defend her and take the high road. It’s exactly the sort of thing that bitch wouldn’t do :)

Don’t get too caught up in wouldacouldashoulda. You’re a Jeopardy champion. I can’t remember the specifics, but I was really impressed one time when both your opponents missed on a 2000k question. When they gave you a chance to buzz in I remember thinking, “Don’t do it!”, because you’d already come out ahead, so to say. It was an impressive non-buzz, one of the “little things” that the saberJeopardyheads couldn’t understand from their basements.

Magna Carta aside, I was extremely impressed with your knowledge of weights and measurements. All I know is my car gets 40 Rods to the Hogshead and that’s the way I likes it.

Regardless

Next time you meet her, I think you should stick her hand in your lamp, Goonies style.

Just watched the DVR last night.

I was a day behind so… I guessed ping pong for FJ like “the bitch”. It was recorded in his West Orange lab so it couldn’t have been too big of a sport.. Loved the Baseball answer. You should have put (go Reds) small in the corner.

Has anyone put goofy answers if they come up totally stoned on FJ? Would they retape it? Do they warn you not to? It would be ideal if you put up like $100 and wrote Red Report Rules!!
