Really makes ya wonder if anyone else could have ever gotten this far... they used to have a 5 game limit. Could anyone else who reached that limit ever gotten this far... or is he an ultra human.

He didn't just break the old record... he didn't just shatter the old record... he didn't just dwarf the old record.... he's so far beyond the old record he's even beyond using that record to wipe his own ass!

Well not only has he shatered the old record for 5 day run (not hard to do) but he has also shattered the single day record 8 different times.

honestly though has anybody wondered about the legitimacy of this?

anybody ever heard about the gameshow scandals in the 60's? i learned something about it in a journalism class where they rigged up a gameshow back in the day to crank up ratings.... and its not like jeopardy is on the top of the list anymore... but now, everybody is watching to see how he does.

my sister had a friend from highschool that played on jeopardy for one of the college contests.... and he said that the button didnt always work when he pushed it, it was some timing thing....

maybe they rigged this guys button?

maybe they intentionally put him against people who they know wont compete well with him or who are supposed to throw the game?

maybe he has some sort of access to the answers/questions ahead of time?

im not saying i believe any or all of this but i cant say that i dont wonder :dunno:
