This is a sports version of the comedic pop-culture quiz show with the brash host and is free for play on the gaming portal "beZerk.com". Once a game installer is downloaded and executed on your computer, you can play solo or with up to two others on the same keyboard. The game is sponsored by short television-like full-screen ads in between some rounds to obtain revenue. New episodes are created weekly and questions load in the background while you are playing. Past episodes can also be played again.

There's different categories such as Pro Athletes & Other Large Corporations and Gibberish Questions where you must decipher a common sports cliché, term, etc. from a sentence that makes no sense. One time per round you can "screw your neighbor" by forcing an opponent to answer a question and if they answer wrong, they lose points. But if they answer correctly then you lose the points. There's three rounds of 14 questions and a Jack Attack lightning round. Whoever has the most points at the end, wins. [source:mobygames]
