Remember: No FPG tomorrow
« on: January 23, 2014, 04:24:44 PM »
Tomorrow's episode is swapped out for the Grammy special.  Tomorrow's game is rescheduled for Monday, February 3--the day after "The Richard Sherman Show" the Super Bowl.
Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

Does this mean there's an FPG January 31st and February 3rd, or just February 3rd?
Yeah...let's make this current shall we?

Just for the record, 6585K was moved to March 10, 2014.

Both days.

That's right.  We still have a game on Monday, February 3... but the February 3 episode was originally scheduled in December.  I blame MR for my date mixup.

Well, considering past Grammy specials, I don't think I can expect too much from this one.

Torgo has left the building. John and I never really cared for the way he presented himself.

No because it has nothing to do with FPG. In fact, it's the complete opposite. This was one of the better lineups in a while. I myself thought the lineup for this show was amazing. (Which is what FPG is about, not just wins/losses of pricing games....)

“For the premiere of season 30, CBS wanted to do a special primetime show. However, they asked that we also add a gimmick or a twist to make it truly special. I came up with the suggestion of taking the show on the road for the first time in its history." - Roger Dobkowitz

Imagine if FPG was still on for today, the 3rd game would of been a potential sandbag.

2 for the Price of 1 was certainly due.  I would have never picked it for the car game, though.

Apparently, 2/3/2014 (#6545K) would have aired on 12/27/2013, which was during the week of Christmas. This increases the number of possibilities for Monday's game, since #6543K was never produced.
