Jeopardy! Ultimate Tournament begins tonight

Given that you're already spending far too much time staring blankly at a screen — why else would you be reading this? — don't forget to check out the start of the Jeopardy! Ultimate Tournament of Champions tonight. (Refer to your local listings for time and station.)

You'll see three superlative players — Leslie Frates, Michael Galvin, and Eric Terzuolo — face off this evening in the kickoff match. And, oh yeah...you'll probably see a plug for my appearance in tomorrow night's clash.

You already have the VCR set for that one, right? Of course you do.
