I'll be coming home to watch Liberty at their first tournament. I'm looking forward to great competition with great questions.

Hey I'm in California. Well anyway, I'm pretty impressed by that score. That is almost all of the points possible to get combined I think.

Yeah it's pretty close. 200 for first quarter, 200 for worksheets (both teams can get points simultaneously), 150 for third quarter, and 300 for fourth quarter = a total of 1050 is possible, but a team can only get up to 850 since the other 200 is the other team's worksheet points.George Clooney wrote: That is almost all of the points possible to get combined I think.

Haha, I wondered when someone was going to take David's bait and spill the beans.

WOW, how DID Savannah pull that one off without David?

Simple: Terin Budine. She's a sophomore, she was captain on Saturday, and she's really, really good already.

It was really really fun. The other contestants were almost all really cool and almost everyone was very knowledgeable about one thing or another. The thing that kills me is the trash questions. There is just so much of it. It makes and breaks people on the show. Oh well. It was a great mix of fun and stress.

I love trash .... that's one of the fun things about watching Jeopardy.... if the answer is one of your favorite bands and nobody knows it, it's fun just yelling at the TV.
