Remember, you can watch this and other Sports Jeopardy episodes at crackle.com/sports-jeopardy!

So, Jay Sullivan defeated Vinny Varadarajan last week. How will he do in his title defense?

Today’s contestants:

Bev Narinesingh, an executive director from Miramar, FL
bev_narinesingh_2_ad_02-24-16_sn_1075		 Abe Gordon, a sports radio producer from Cleveland, OH
abe_gordon_2_ad_02-24-16_sn_1075		 Jay Sullivan, a bartender originally from Salem, MA (1-day total: $5,000)
jay_sullivan_2_ad_02-24-16_sn_1075



In case anyone’s wondering, I am angling for March 28th for the next Sports Jeopardy edition of #JeopardyLivePanel!

This game felt a great deal closer than the scores indicated with both Abe and Bev having great runs! But, Jay did go 4/4 in NICE JOB THERE, PATRICK and 3/4 in DE NIRO MOVIES, NFL GROUP NICKNAMES, and CLUBBING SPORTS.

Also, the “Jeopardy Curse” strikes, as there was a clue referring to David Blatt as Cavaliers coach.

Scores going into Final Jeopardy:
Jay 16,500
Abe 9,250
Bev 8,500

Final Jeopardy! category: NFL STARS

Final Jeopardy! clue: This NFL player appeared on a 2015 Sports Illustrated cover with the caption “One Man Is An Island”

[spoiler title=’Click/Tap Here for Correct Response’]Who is Darrelle Revis?[/spoiler]


Bev 8500 + 8400 = 16900
Abe 9250 + 9250 = 18500
Jay 16500 + 2001 = 18501 (2-day total: $10,000)

I’m looking forward to seeing Jay next Wednesday, on Crackle!
