Next two days on channel 9, should be good on. Three brainiacs, IMO Bussy will come out the winner?

I think it will be quite a battle, great to watch. You may be right, Austin seems a little to casual at times, Alan is a nervous wreck most of the time, so Buzzy just might manage to keep focused and in control.

For some reason Austin irritates me. Not sure why. It is those Double Jeopardy's and how often he gets them. I have been having a grand old time with some of the Jeopardy categories for years. Love the creativity of those writers.

I just wonder how Alan will do on the same stage as Austin and Austin (Buzzy’s given name). That’s a lot of personality to deal with and both of them are pretty cocky. Should be an interesting two days.

Alan IMO could blow both of them away (actually did Austin the first go around). He's very quick and calculating. I amazed the stuff they know, especially the bartender?

Alex Trebec annoys me. I thought Austin was great fun.

It should be interesting tomorrow. I love Alex Trebek. A fellow Philosophy Major like me. You can tell from his knowledge of Philosophers and the like. Alex Trebek - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Trebek)

The guy who hosts Talking Dead is another Philosophy Major. Chris Hardwick - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Hardwick)

IMHO, this is the best Tournament of Champions since Ken Jennings. I've heard there's a lot of camaraderie between Jeopardy players (as well as competition) and their opening "skit" on the first day showed it. Can't wait to see what they do tonight. I love Austin's quirkiness and Buzzy's glasses. Alan was a lot more relaxed than he was in the quarterfinals. I think he's going to blow the other two away.

Ok, Bussy was a bust the first go around, Alan had good run and caoght it to Austin, Austin was blowing them away till the SSSSSSSSSS addition to word. Still good game going on, no clear cut winner after round one. 2 min count down starts now

It was an interesting two days.

It was fun. And Alex Trebek seemed to enjoy that tournament as well. That Final Jeopardy question was quite difficult.
