I'll take 'Sports Nicknames' for $1000, Alex ...

By J.E. Skeets


We're Off To See The Wizards reports this was a $1,000 question on Jeopardy! last night, and that nobody knew the answer. Just crickets and blank stares. Can you say 'Who are ridiculously lame contestants?'

UPDATE: Steinz has the video.

    Ok, I'm just waiting for someone to complain or be offended by 'The Black President'. I'm already shocked that even made it on TV.

    The contestants had to be lame sports fans they need ESPN. My 10yr old would have owned for about a Hot sec.

    Whats eating Gilberts grape for $200 please.
    I think shaq and gilbert should get together and see who can be the whitest black person.
    So far it is Michael Phelps vs. The President.
    What happens when Obama takes office. Who will be the white president?
