I sent you one!

Thank you to everyone who has sent in responses so far. Keep 'em coming!

Your version is not going to be anything like the Steve Harvey version.

You've got no questions pertaining to body parts, sticking things into other things, or late night "hobbies". I wanted to be like Sean Connery on Jeopardy (SNL version)! and answer every question with "my penis", but then I figured you wouldn't ask me anymore.

Rock bands that should have a jukebox musical on Broadway, now that Mamma Mia! has finally closed - here's the latest answer to that question that you didn't ask. Seems like an improbable choice, but it reminded me about how much you love ABBA.

Yeah, it's a church retreat, so I couldn't go there.

Gotta say, both myself and Mrs. Jaybee had to think a bit for the sports team question. Could turn into a buzzer beater.

Love doing these.

I took a little liberty on 'city' and used the state as many teams don't go by the actual city, such at the Texas Ranger, Florida Marlins, etc. And of course, neither of those are ones I used because they didn't fit the category.

Maybe Frank will reword the question to be City or Regional Identification so as to include those teams.

Sure, it's easier if you include states, but there are plenty of alliterative names that start with a city (including the Florida Marlins' other name).

Ditto on the first part after a glass of wine and a half hour in the hot tub. My earlier response was based on the home team, but after I increased the circulation to my brain and came up with 7 orthographically alliterative and one phonetically alliterative answers, I found that only one is in the Midwest, unless, like the Big 10 several years ago, you consider a large state to the east Midwestern.

kroxquo matched one of my answers (desert). It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the Bored responded to these questions. I did pretty good the last time Frank did this.
