Jimmy Butler Got Completely Disrespected on Jeopardy Last Night

Jeopardy did Jimmy Butler dirty. When it comes to sports categories on Jeopardy,  it’s usually hit or miss for the contestants. Most of them don’t necessarily prepare for that category. We’ve seen on many occasions contestants missing softball sports questions. Last night the braniacs were at it again, completely blowing a layup. The question was about Miami Heat superstar Jimmy Butler, who apparently isn’t very well known in nerds circles.

Time for these Jeopardy guys to start showing some respect to the sports world.

Frankly we’re sick of seeing the disrespect.

Jimmy deserves better. . .
