Yeah.

It is a legitimate question: What are the qualifications for an expert? If viewers see that TPTB are selecting previous winners, one might expect to see the biggest winners, first. $100K is a ways down the list. But TPTB have other factors they're considering.

I'm still waiting to see Kevin Smith, SyndieBAM's first millionaire, show up as an expert. But I have strong suspicions that will never happen.
#1 factor on the list would have to be that they agree to do it. Which is probably why we won't see Kevin Smith.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

And I see I can't type this morning.

Sheesh. Oh well, I think you know what I meant to say.

That may well be, but I also suspect that TPTB may never ask him. Even though he managed to get on the show, I don't think he has the TV presence they were hoping for in their first millionaire.

Has he been heard of at all, since his big win?

I mean, Ogi won 500,000 now that takes genius, 100,000 you could get their by chance or by judicious life line usage.

hEY! Who are you calling lucky and judicious?!?

Oh, never mind. :lol:

My experience of Kevin Smith tells me he would have no personal interest in doing it. He didn't even want to talk to his fellow contestants, why would he spend a day sitting in his apartment to help people?
