Jeopardy

I found it entertaining.
I also found myself rooting against James and for Ken and the other guy.
Something about that James I just don't like. Not sure why, but I just don't

Controversies[edit]

Some of Jennings's tweets have been the subject of controversy. On September 22, 2014, he received criticism after tweeting, "Nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair."[49][50][51][52]

On November 10, 2015, Jennings was criticized after he tweeted a joke about the death of Daniel Fleetwood, a lifelong Star Wars fan who died of cancer. Fleetwood's dying wish was to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens, fearing he likely would not live to see the film when it opened in theaters in December 2015. An online campaign was started on his behalf and his wish was granted only days before he died. Jennings said "It can't be a good sign that every fan who has seen the new Star Wars movie died shortly thereafter."[53]

Jennings again faced controversy when on May 31, 2017, he tweeted a joke involving Barron Trump, the youngest child of U.S. President Donald Trump. According to TMZ, after 11-year-old Barron Trump saw an image of Kathy Griffin holding a bloody Trump mask, he believed it was real and screamed. Jennings wrote, "Barron Trump saw a very long necktie on a heap of expired deli meat in a dumpster. He thought it was his dad & his little heart is breaking."[54] After the tweet garnered controversy, Jennings said, "The joke doesn't mock Barron. It mocks using him for political cover."[55]

In August 2018, Jennings was criticized for another controversial Twitter post when he mocked an elderly woman in Connecticut after tweeting about her deceased disabled son and his love for the 1980s television character, ALF. The woman had posted about her excitement over a new version of the show possibly returning to television. Noting that the idea brought up pleasant memories about her son, Diane tweeted: "ALF was my son’s favorite character. He had so many ALF puppets. When he died we buried them together and had an ALF engraved into his headstone. Then my daughter got an ALF tatoo [sic] in honor of her brother. No matter what, ALF is special to our family." Jennings responded, "This awful MAGA grandma is my favorite person on Twitter." Severe criticism from those who read Jennings' tweet followed as well as criticism in news media. In Seattle, Jennings' hometown, Jason Rantz of KTTH 770 am on the station's media website "MyNorthwest" wrote, "...he knew she was talking about her deceased son, making his comments even more loathsome. What a needlessly cruel tweet from Jennings."[56] During an August 7, 2018 interview with Seattle radio personality Jason Rantz on KTTH, the elderly woman stated in response to Jennings' tweet: "Having just seen the tweet it just makes me feel violated...I don’t understand why he would choose me as a target. I don’t even know the man...".[57]

Yup, he is a dick alright.
 
Last nite they did a little history on Rutter. He was a Jeopardy champ back when they placed a limit of 5 games. He then was invited back a few times for a tournament of champions which consisted of three games & paid one million each time he won. So bottom line is although he has won the most money, he has not competed in very many games compared to the other two. That lack of experience could be showing now.
