Guest bat Posted September 7, 2004 Report Posted September 7, 2004 On the other hand, after the TV columnist at the Albany Times Union wrote a tongue-in-cheek column about how he "hates" Jennings, he received e-mails from members of the LDS Church who accused him of being anti-Mormon. At the time, the columnist wasn't aware of Jennings' religious affiliation. Not much chance of that now.AHA! If you dislike somebody that is a mormon, you are "anti-mormon". Doesn't that make most mormons "anti-mormons"? Quote
sgallan Posted September 8, 2004 Report Posted September 8, 2004 There is a bit of a persecution complex, or a "us against the world" segment, of this religion. Though not unique to this religion. Otherwise, I like the guy. He is a competitor. He's bad and he knows it. Not only does he control the button, but if you miss an answer, he'll get it. He'll play his daily double with cajones. He has the mindset. And can play the psych game. Frankly unless some rocket scientist guy, or pure research guy, the type they give a project too and then leave alonge, with quick fingers decides to play - and most of those guys are off in their own worlds moving the scientific ball forward and couldn't be bothered with game shows - I am not sure how this guy could lose.

liahonagirl Posted September 9, 2004 Report Posted September 9, 2004 Found out something interesting whilst on holidays these past several weeks. Ken's grandfather works at the Seattle Temple with my grandfather. Quote
Jenda Posted September 9, 2004 Report Posted September 9, 2004 I wonder if they give him the answers ahead of time. Quote
Snow Posted September 10, 2004 Author Report Posted September 10, 2004 There's a rumor floating around the net that he just this week. Course they tape months in advance so I won't say how many total wins the rumor says he winds up with. Quote
liahonagirl Posted September 10, 2004 Report Posted September 10, 2004 there is a rumour out there that he just . . . ? just what? *very confuzzled* Quote
