Rodgers in Jeopardy

[Poppa San]

He probably could. They tape those shows in bunches. He could do them all during the offseason.

Or film in Green Bay/Milwaukee during the season so he can do it his day off.

I think that we all need a stick figure drawing of Weeds' proposal....although we shouldn't rule out the possibility that she asked him.

He's in Wisconsin. I'm sure alcohol was involved. Maybe even firearms.

if it was done properly, yes it should have.

 

[weeds]

Mondio, El Guapo and Poppa ... all added to my list of snotty poopie heads.

 

[Mondio]

No list is complete without me, I'm honored to be a member

 

[weeds]

As well you should be. I don't just hand 'em out to any ol' poopie head.

 

[El Guapo]

So I'm on there twice? It's another Festivus Miracle!!

That was a different list. I'll check my filing cabinet and get back to you.

Rodgers has such a soft, calm voice.
If he could paint, he could be the next Bob Ross.

'Jeopardy!' producer: Packers QB Aaron Rodgers' second career 'could be better than his first'

https://www.usatoday.com/story/spor...dy-producer-packers-aaron-rodgers/7188590002/


Also: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/...after-first-week-of-hosting-iconic-game-show/

"Aaron Rodgers has made it pretty clear that he wants to become the full-time host of "Jeopardy!" and if his first week of hosting the iconic show was any indication, it appears the Packers quarterback might actually have a realistic shot of landing the job.

Rodgers drew some high praise last week after serving as guest host for a total of five episodes. Some of that praise came from Mike Richards, who serves as the executive producer for the long-running game show."


"So far, Rodgers has been deemed the best host and that take comes from someone who should know: Jimmy McGuire. The clue crew member has been with the show for 20 of its 37 years and during a conversation with one-time contestant Lindsay Wilcox, McGuire didn't hide his thoughts about the five guest hosts.

"He said Aaron Rodgers was the best guest host they had seen so far," Wilcox said of her conversation with McGuire, via The Ringer."

 

[El Guapo]

I'll be honest, Alex was a much better host. Rodgers is pretty stiff. Maybe he will get better over time but I don't know who is offering "high praise" for his hosting work. If I were Jeopardy, I would certainly bring in some more talent (including Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge).

 

[Mondio]

I only saw 1 episode and while he was fine, nothing said "Trebek replacement" to me.

 

[Pkrjones]

I'll be honest, Alex was a much better host. Rodgers is pretty stiff. Maybe he will get better over time but I don't know who is offering "high praise" for his hosting work.

What? Tuesday's (4/13) episode AR was almost TOO loose. I think he's a lot better than last week and doing a great job.

AR's Filming schedule:
Sunday - practice rounds
Monday - 3 episodes before lunch, lunch, then 2 episodes (those 5 aired last week)
Tuesday - 3 before lunch, lunch, 2 episodes after lunch (these episodes are this week)

I'm very much looking forward to the rest of this week. I'd rank the guest hosts, so far: #1 AR; #2 Jeopardy Producer Mike Richards; #3 Jennings.

When rodgers is done with football, I hope he goes into color commentary. He has so much knowledge of the game, the things we don't see. Tony Romo has surprised me with his knowledge and delivery. Rodgers would be even better. Guys like Collinsworth and Aiken are past their due dates.

I saw a clip of Rodgers talking with the contestant, as the credits rolled, who answered with the field goal question ... now I can't find the clip ... but that conversation is going to get tongues wagging...

Rodgers was laughing and saying something to the effect "I'm glad you asked that question" and, " You're my man"... I'm paraphrasing but expect the "there's a rift..." folks to make an appearance soon.

I thought the whole thing was hilarious. The guy answered in the form of a question, so that was proper. Rodgers' reaction was classic. It was all just fun. But yeah, some people will use it as sole proof for a rift between ARod and MLF. When the answer is of course Rodgers wanted the ball in his hands rather than off the foot of Crosby. He's a QB after all, and a great one. Anyway, it was cool to watch.

 

[Heyjoe4]

What's the worst that could happen? Them not winning the Super Bowl?

Geez do people really give him gas for making commercials? Those people need to get a life.

That's what I was thinking ... Well, maybe not THAT but ... Wow that podium is BIG.

I can see Rodgers being a GM or something. Not really a coach, but an Elway kinda guy. I don't think he's as personable as Romo and would probably get panned being too quiet or dry.

I don’t see Rodgers as a GM kind of guy. I see him more as a owner or team president guy.

Good points. Romo is a guy you'd like to have a beer with. Rodgers? Not so much. He is a very smart guy and would likely do well as a GM as you suggest. He's already an investor with a stake in the Bucks. My guess is that he's very good with money.

I've seen it in his stint on Jeopardy. He comes in well prepared and doesn't make any mistakes, but he's just dry. I never realized how good Trebek was until now that he's gone.

Trebek was a pretty seasoned game show host before Jeopardy I think. There's gonna be people out there who have game show experience or even just entertainment experience who will be on Trebek's level, just not a household name. It'd be cool to make it a contest... Give people two week stints, then they're voted on and eliminated. Then a finals week or something. Make it a real event ya know.

That would be good for ratings.
