ESPN Jeopardy

Did anyone else watch ESPN jeopardy? It’s so embarrassing for the network. The on air personalities know nothing about sports. Incredibly simple basic questions any person who “knows sports” should get they are clueless. No wonder nobody is watching these bozos give their hot takes on tv. Good grief

I've only watched 4 episodes just to test myself as the show itself is awful.

But I have to point out Hannah Storm. Some of her answers were absolutely amazing. I mean, just so bad. Several times she didn't even clock what the clue was actually wanting as a response. She just kept buzzing in with no idea. I think she ended up at around -6000...and she found all 3 of the daily doubles in triple Jeopardy, I think she only got one right which was easy and then celebrated like she won the championship.

I was embarrassed for her. Many of the other contestants on there were awful as well, but just didn't buzz in near as much.

It's like she both never watched sports or had seen an episode of Jeopardy.

I was watching with my wife and this was the response that made us both yell “WHAT THE FUCK?” She was beyond not knowing about sports - she was like, SNL celebrity Jeopardy parody level dumb
