Oldest Trivia Rivalry Is Back In High-Scoring Shootout (The Dozen, Match 154)

The oldest rivalry on The Dozen, Brandon vs. Smitty, is back as the 7-Experts (8-3-0) take on 10-Uptown Balls (1-2-1). We haven't seen the Uptown Balls franchise beat The Experts since April 2020, and the team, with its current construction, has never won in this matchup. Will the upset finally happen, or can The Experts get back to their winning ways?

A haircut shouldn’t feel that relaxing, but it does at Sport Clips Haircuts. That’s because stylists just don’t wash your hair... they use a 7-pressure point massaging shampoo technique that is so relaxing you melt in your seat. And the hot steamed towel? Oh yeah, it’s infused with tea tree oil and perfectly steamed... leaving you feeling like you just left a Swedish sauna. And to top it off, you get a pinpoint cut. Stop by Sport Clips today and ask for the MVP Haircut Experience. It’s ridiculously relaxing. Sport Clips. The Pros in Men’s Hair. Here are the questions from the show, with the answers at the bottom of the blog...

I don’t get how Fran answers two questions per game and is ranked higher than PFT in the individual rankings, no knock on Fran I like her but I’m sure everyone would agree she only answers the Celebrity Mashup questions correctly and possibly Television questions

[@ce6255]

It’s because PFT throws out shots in the dark on other questions a couple times each game which counts against his rating. That’s the flaw in the trivia rating

[@donnmartin2212]

That giggle tho 🤣

[@CB-ke5xx]

Because they double her mashup, and then she usually steals the other teams, that's 3 points right there. Sometimes she gets tv or music questions. Which is why she averages around 3.5 points a game. People dog on her like she doesn't contribute but she does SO well at celeb mashup it makes her a really good teammate.

I disagree, wasn’t even thinking big short until I read Bourdain, Margot, and Gomez. That gives it away

[@peterlift4970]

@@PaxChristi7 Ok, but lets say you think humm....is it "This movie" or "that movie" or "The Big Short?" humm.....the last answer was "The Big Sick"..thats probably it. Basically you could either think "The Big" is a trick or it is not, but regardless, that is gonna hook some people onto The Big Short. Example someone who had a toss up between say 4-5 films, they would be much more likely to go with The Big Short in that situation. If The Big Short was called "Shorts" or some shit most people would not be as confident in the answer unless they knew it from the clues provided.

Best episode in a long time

Jeff defending the big sick and the big short question is disgusting

[@lucaspatin5011]

Now this is classic dozen!!!

[@MrNobody91]

People can say what they want, or try to clown on Glennie balls, but the guys definitely a “company/The Dozen/Trivia guy”! Like the guy has done trivia from an airport, now in an Uber, I never remember correctly there was somewhere else he did one as well that was it just in the office or at his house, but the guy is deff a guy who obviously will do whatever he needs to help his team/put out content! And tbh, I’ve always liked Glenny honestly, like the dude is a great guy no matter how good he is in trivia or whatever, the guy is a great, funny, down to earth, and seems like a really genuine (sweet) guy! And I mean, he was literally hired based off being “fast” by Caleb and has made the absolute most of it, especially for someone hired when Dave was supposed to be interviewing him to see if he wanted to hire him, and then come to find out he had been hired any damn way 😂😂😂! But yeah, he’s like Jersey Jerry in my mind, someone who I genuinely feel like is a good guy who deserved the job and again, has made the absolute most out of his opportunity at Barstool.

[@babbs2121]

1st round great question but got confused and thought it was former players who had won champions who are now coaches, so said Walton, Billups and Kerr. Might have been on the outside on that but think that would be a fun question going forward for NBA

That ska question was more like a 9 out of 10. THat's not even a memorable line in the song it's in, and the song is more known for the 1st half being an instrumental. It's just a one off line in the song that isn't repeated and isn't the end of a verse or in the chorus.

This mightve been my fav ep yet. Amazing. Love Uptown Balls.

[@MrNobody91]

@2:59 Jeff really missed an opportunity at Barstool Comedy Gold by not letting Glenny Balls be the guy who opened it up for their team instead of Smitty/Tommy tbh. Like watching his camera is already funny, getting to watch it while he tried to open it uo for his team would’ve been amazing lol. Which, honestly watching his camera while Tommy was talking took all my attention off of everything Tommy was saying anyways, so I gues really Glenny did open up the game for Uptown Balls technically 😂😂😂😂! I stg, like I said in my other comment, even when it’s not on purpose Glenny is a hilarious character, (which honestly its probably funnier on accident than when he’s actually trying to be funny), and he just seems like such a genuinely kind/great guy who really and truly deserves the opportunity he has gotten. Even if he was hired solely being a fat guy who claimed to be fast and was hired I’d assume just cause Caleb wanted to see a fat guy run or something id assume 😂😂😂! But again, I feel a lot of people wouldn’t have been able to make as much out of that opportunity as Glenny has, and he’s really become his own guy and obviously doesn’t just need to rely on Caleb or be his “intern”, tho him on the sidelines during The Sundae Conversations are amazing as well. So yeah, it’s nice to see the guy doing his thing, and he’ll the guy even has a fkn Podcast about and talking to women from Only Fans and is always in Miami or some other decent vacation spot doing what balls does 😂😂😂😂😂, the guys living the dream lol!

[@MrNobody91]

@28:08 Of course Jeff just never wants to admit it, but I totally agree with what PFT said. And I’m not just trying to trash Jeff, but that just seems like laziness almost. Like really one movie is called the big sick, and then the next one is called the big short? Like those totally set up each other. I mean it’s literally the same title other than one word, so how does they not set up each other? That’s one of the main thing that aggravates me the most about Jeff, is when somebody calls him out or something like this happens he just refuses ever to take responsibility. And the only time he does take responsibility as if it’s super blatant and he knows everybody’s gonna be calling him out for it. And it’s not like Jeff’s going to take responsibility for his mess up anyway. Like I said, he only does it if it’s like very blatant and also super obvious and knows it’s going to make a lot of people mad. Screwing over the experts I guess isn’t a big deal.
