Jeopardy is my favorite show. Sad to hear of his passing today after his battle with cancer.

I never know what to say. He will be missed, and I appreciated the tiny bit of who he was as a person in Jeopardy.

He was 80 years old.

The game won't be the same w/o him.   He will be missed.

Is the game still going to be played? Who is the host? Searching reveals:

I hope the show carries on.  It wouldn't be exactly the same but watching it would remind us of Alex.

By the way...was it Art Kennedy who hosted the show originally?

In der bag:
Cleveland Hi-Bore driver, Maltby 5 wood, Maltby hybrid, Maltby irons and wedges (23 to 50) Vokey 59/07, Cleveland Niblick (LH-42), and a Maltby mallet putter.                                                                                                                                                 "When the going gets tough...it's tough to get going."

Being an avid watcher of the show for over 20 years, I will miss Alex Trebek. It is going to be strange turning on the TV at 7:30 and not seeing Jeopardy (if they stop the show) or Alex Trebek as the host of Jeopardy.

We think they are grooming Ken Jennings to replace Alex. Jeopardy hired him to be a special consultant on the show.

I hope he is personable. At some point I thought he was somewhat of an asshole, but might as well give him a shot.

He seems very funny, which would help. The hard part is that we know he knows the answers. Alex probably didn’t.

Alex knew the answers.

He also knew the questions, too. 😄

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By DaHolla ·

      Day 313 - I played 18 today. First and last holes were ugly, but I actually played pretty well. Driver was great, irons were alright, and the short game was better than average.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 205 (23 Nov 24) - Worked with the alignment rod and 7i  in reference to ball position in relation to lead foot on full iron shots, noticed an increase in thinned shots last couple of rounds - better contact with the balls (hard foam) during the drill/swing rehearsals.

      Which Irons?

      By iacas ·

      Have you gone to a fitting? A good fitting will not only give you a clubhead but a shaft, etc. that will suit you.

      Irons Too Nice to Use

      By iacas ·

      It's not like the Nike Vapor Pro are exactly a highly sought set of irons.

      Irons Too Nice to Use

      By Typhoon92 ·

      Last night I was putting my Nike Vapor Pro Irons back in my bag.  I had my sons i500’s in there the last couple months after we all went to Top Golf .  I picked up the Nike’s this past spring and they are like new.  I feel guilty using them… I have other irons that aren’t valuable that I could use instead.
