'That's Funny'

I had one of those 'that's funny' moments last night.

To get to the point, in as quick a way as I can take, I have to tell you something quickly. 

The other day, I was browsing through Disney Plus, to see which college American football games are set for this weekend, and I came across the fact that the streaming service has episodes of ESPN Jeopardy for us here in the UK.

I was actually quite stunned at that. I watched an episode immediately and planned to catch additional episodes across the week. I made it to episode two last night.

Here's one of the answers which came up:

With this being a sports version of Jeopardy, the contestant has to 'answer' in the form of a question. ESPN reporter and presenter - Peter Schrager - correctly asked 'Who is Carlie Irsay?' (okay, it's Carlie Irsay-Gordon, but let's not get too pedantic right now!).

I thought 'that's funny,' because - of all days - it was the one when I had written a post about Carlie Irsay-Gordon yesterday after she made the decision to fire Chris Ballard as general manager of the Indianapolis Colts.

ESPN Jeopardy is hosted by sports commentator Joe Buck. I've written many times in the past about Jeopardy, especially the short-lived UK versions, as being one of my favourite game shows. With this being all sport, then I am in a nirvana.

Also found, during my browse through the ESPN content on Disney Plus, is College Gameday (I thought DAZN had the exclusive rights to that show, so haven't watched any of it at all this season!) and Pardon The Interruption (airs at 11:05pm each weeknight. I used to watch it a lot when it was on the cable channels over here).

So good to see the ESPN content available to Disney Plus users. Fair play.
