‘Jeopardy’ Contestants Fail To Know Just One Thing About Football

Listen, I know different people have different interests and some would rather tune into The Big Bang Theory over Sunday Night Football. Different values, opinions and outlooks lay the seeds for human evolution. We would all just be banging our chests and grunting if some people’s mortgages weren’t on the line over a Browns/49ers week 15 game.

But, if you’ve made it to the Super Bowl of nerdom on Jeopardy and you fancy yourself someone a jack of all intellectual trades, please know the rudimental aspects of sport. Its only fair. To humanity.

Question 1:

Twitter


Silence.

Question 2:

Twitter


Brain freeze.

Question 3:

Twitter


Tom who?

Question 4:

Twitter


Question 5: A video question about the Minnesota Vikings’ Purple People Eaters. Not a chance.

Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce to you: The Jeopardy D League.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
