What does being a female have to do with it?

Where did you drag that out from? I merely mentioned the sex of the individual who won..........Why are YOU bringing up the sex aspect?

Here, let me rephrase the statement:

Then you read too much to think that turned the tide in favor of the CONTESTANT.......

Do you feel better now?

That said, her DD questions were both easy.

I thought that the questions were, overall, easier than they usually were with James was a contestant. Jeopardy can obviously make the questions as hard or easy as they want. The two week special contest with the teachers, while quite entertaining, definitely had questions of a very different level of difficulty. Perhaps the producers realized that making the questions more challenging only gave James more of an edge.
