Does anyone else besides me think the show is somewhat rigged? It seems impossible to have all that knowledge ranging from sports like Basketball and Football to the like of Figure Skating and Rugby.

WHat do you all think?

Maybe he is a savant. Or he could just have no life and watch a hell of a lot of sports.

I believe the Schwab is fat and ugly and can't get chicks, so who cares if he knows more about sports than us?

Edit: I voted no because I don't believe Schawb is the franchise QB that many make him out to be

It's his job. He spends all day researching stuff like this. If there was a job called "Stump the Historian" I promise you I'd kick all your asses as well.

Stupid show to watch though. Nobody ever wins, and when they do they win like 5,000 dollars. Big deal.

Like someone else said, it's his job. Even before he had his own show, he was in the research department. I don't find it hard to believe whatsoever. Now the moon landing, that's a different story.

Does he still have a show? I haven't seen it in about three years.

*Edit
I thought of something he missed one time that should've been very easy for him. He couldn't name the entire Fab 5. I actually saw him in a chat one time and told him about it. He said something like how it was very dumb of him.

I know it was a lame-ass joke, but I had to say something and I was too lazy to think up something better.

From the Wiki article:

Schwab is informed ahead of time what topics are going to be asked during the Schwab Showdown round in each episode. However, he does not know what the individual questions are.

And wikipedia is the most reliable source on the internet. If they said it, it has to be right.

It's real. I have seen him on another sports show and they quizzed him and he did very well. The guy has spent the better part of his life watching and researching sports. It's not impossible for him to know all of this stuff. Look at some of the guys on the show, they seem unbelievable as well but they're obviously real.

Everybody has their strong suits though and once they hit that catergory they don't know they fall back to reality; very few are as gifted as the Schwab and that's why he's usually victorious

The contestants have jobs. Knowing sports is his job. If you did that all day every day I would hope he knows that much.

That's one thing I think is a bit corny as well b/c he knows that he's about 90% sure and when Stu Scott tells him he's right it's like he guessed right at something where he was just shooting in the dark

I love seeing Cabbie and Chris Bosh. They are hilarious together. Cabbie hugs Bosh. Bosh gets really uncomfortable and doesn't know what to do. A voice from the background says "Keep your hands off the players!"

its kind of obvious when you watch the show because he will act like he doest know it or is thinking about it he looks up pretending to think and he always gets the answer. I hate the guy and i hate S. Scott on the show, he is so annoying on it and all his jokes are so freaking lame.

The only thing that seems rigged is they always pick topics he knows. Now he knows a lot but he sucks at NASCAR and that has to be the second biggest sport in America. I use the word sport loosely. But my friend is a big NASCAR fan and he says that only a few times has he heard a NASCAR question on there and the Schwab didn't know them and they were real basic questions.
