    I saw that a couple of times and that guy was unbeleivable. He knkows just about everything from every sport. He got stumped before, but nevertheless, he was very impressive.

    I think it started last summer. I remember watching it around this time and I was in awe. [​IMG]

    I once asked him a question on ESPN.Com about college basketball. I can't remember the question, nor can I remember the answer, but I do remember that his reply was horrible. In fact, most of his replies were horrible. I think he may just be one of those guys who is good at memorizing useless facts but not actually good at watching or breaking down games.

    I haven't seen the show, but I've heard of it. Can you ask him any question like, Who are the current NBA players in the top 30 of all time in APG? List them in order from highest to lowest.?

    I don't know if he'll be able to answer that but he could come close. Its more like:
    Name fifteen past number one picks from the NBA/NFL/NHL draft.

    nah, his career is finding stats, it's all he knows. It looks legit as possible.

    If you asked him to name the top 20 steals leaders, he'll get you about 17 of them

    The Schwab got stumped again tonight. I love watching him when he misses a question. He gets so emotional over trivia. [​IMG]

    He's worse when he stumps the other contestants. He acts like a big know-it-all and makes the contestants feel more stupid than when they got stumped.

    He does know his stuff, but there is kinda a clear line between knowing your stuff and being a nerd. I think he challenges that line if not going past. I can't believe he got stumped though.

    I seriously think that guy is paid to sit up on a computer and study all these little facts. He probably has a copy of every ESPN Sports Almanac made. And my problem is is that he makes the contestants look so stupid, when they really aren't. It's a nice show though. I enjoy it.
