I HATE the way he plays-I think it should be played top to bottom. Then I watch final jeopardy. Having said that, I LOVE the way he's winning. This is history in the making. It's gonna be a LONG 2 weeks without him. Awhile back there was an Asian fellow that played the game the same way bottom to top sniffing out the double jeopardies and I couldn’t stand it and was glad when he lost. This time around, however it doesn’t seem to be that big of a deal and James actually has a personality which the other guy lacked in a big way.

Yes, he was from Medina, Ohio, half hour from where I live. He was pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Imagine taking three or fours days off from work every other week and not being able to tell anyone you are winning on Jeopardy. And you don’t get paid your money right away either so maybe you can’t take an unpaid leave either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yul Lose Posted May 21, 2019 Author Share Posted May 21, 2019 James is James. Makes it look easy. I still say one of his big early wagers is going to be his undoing, we’ll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 HE's BACK...... and now, he's 89K+ richer tonight. Some of the questions tonight were impossible to imagine that anyone would know the answers. Yet, there were some smart competitors tonight. Go James..... GO! ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Sun Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Another romp in the park for James. I was shocked that he got one wrong.....oops....nope, he was right. Personally, I got 3 right and 1 wrong. At the final I would have had $200 to lose. Another Go James......GO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch it! I checked what was going on when the Indians game went to a commercial! I'd like to see him lose already, like I said before it's like watching baseball games and they're blowouts every single night. I have nothing against this guy I just can't get excited about it!

Smokin Gator SASS #29736 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 For me it is more entertaining to watch him answer correctly from so many different categories compared to watching 3 average players, stumble around with none of them responding on tough questions. Particularly on those "how in the world does anyone know that?" responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwater 53393 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I missed yesterday’s episode. I’m sorting out my schedule for a quick trip to Atlanta, Thursday morning. I LIKE watching someone who is good at what they do and still keeps their head on straight!! James is fun to watch and he’s unpretentious, almost to the point of embarrassment at times. You never know when someone will give him a real challenge! There have been several times. Wouldn’t you hate to miss the end of such a great run?? He’s going to be a lot of fun when the allstar episodes come around next time, that is if he’s out of the regular series by then!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The all star episodes might just be him the way he’s going. It’s going to take someone special and a big mistake or two by him for him to lose, IMO, of course.

Yul Lose Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 James must have hit the books during his vacation, he isn’t missing very many.

Blackwater 53393 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Is it strange that I answered a couple that nobody else got? The $2000.00 dead sea scrolls question? Ol’ James missed one of the Daily Doubles tonight, but the lady that found it gave the wrong response. He also missed one answer and he knew he’d missed it before Alex could say anything. You could tell that he new the right response but just goofed up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
