He now has the top 8 games. Another 2 over $77,000 (which is below average for him) and he'll have the whole leaderboard to himself.
Here's the crazy thing. Given the leads he's taken into Final Jeopardy, he needed to get all of 1 (count it, 1!) of his 16 Final Jeopardy responses correct in order to win all 16 games so far. He got 15 of them. |

In his 18th game, James won by...$18! Great match, very competitive.

I am not a Jeopardy watcher and have not seen this gentleman but today on mlb.com there is an interview with him and he explains that he is a huge Cubs fan.

I read today that when James was four years old, he appeared in an article in the Chicago Tribune about gifted children. So his skills were recognized a long time ago.

I've also read that he didn't make it on the show until his second time auditioning. Not sure if that inspires or dashes the hopes of other prospective contestants, but it's an interesting footnote, reminiscent of the stories about Michael Jordan getting cut from his high school basketball team.

On the mlb network interview he also said he had read many books on various subjects geared towards children. He focused on a basic knowledge of many subjects, not an in depth study.
