It's always annoying to see people looking at the audience in timed games, especially Time is Money, where that's costly of thousands of dollars at one time.

Bob Barker reminds you to help control the pet population, and have your pets spayed or neutered!

Howdy Mama Bev!

Well, I truly enjoy the early years of TPIR.

I challenge anyone to name a game show that was more settled and polished than TPIR in 1972.

Tv was very different then, as were the contestants. 

The 3 showcase idea does sound interesting but undoable unless the show went to 45 minutes like some of the soap operas ran before they expanded to 1 full hour.

Light, love and life to all!!

Apparently Florida elected officials are not happy with the decision to award Alabama (12-1) the CFP instead of Florida State (13-0) who went undefeated. They should have looked at the records in each of the conferences as well as tiebreaking procedures before making the decision.

When the expanded playoff format happens next season this should hopefully allow more conference teams to be in the national playoffs (and maybe even sending more than one team from that conference if possible).

There will definitely be more than one team from each conference heading to the playoff going forward.  For that not to happen, both the SEC and Big Ten would have to be completely awful across the board.  Even that wouldn't be enough to have one team max from a conference as epic as the Big 10 and Southeastern.

Furthermore, with the Pacific 12 being done away with (a year too late I guess), that's 4 fabulous conferences so we're probably not going to see a situation where someone goes undefeated & left out again.  They might not finish in the Top 4 but they wouldn't need to.

If you ask the proper people, they'd tell the Florida elected officials that they should have looked at the game that took place in Charlotte, and then made time to look at the other stuff.  Or looked at the 2014 B1G Championship Game
