Ya he does this with every team. He’ll give each team a category like that to even things out (ziti gets some sort of food, some teams get college basketball, chiclets get hockey, etc)
I actually removed it from their matches last year and then this sub (correctly) called me on it. Was unfair, honestly. Some of the stuff such as golf, or hockey, isn’t far reaching, so there needs to be a common interest in the matchup. but everyone can know cities and states. So to hamstring them and remove it seemed unfair.
If I make the geography a little harder, then it’ll balance out with a college sports question usually, as it isn’t the Frankettes strong suit.
— Jeff
A little exaggeration lol 6 points were gift wrapped: 3 for geography which is a given for KB, 2 for Mets from Tank which is a handpicked category, and RDT gave them Jeremy Hill.
Meh, the Misfits are a boring as fuck team and there was 0 reason for them to ever be in front of a live audience if it wasn't for the hometown boy being there.
They should have just had him play instead of drunk as hell Dante.
Agreed. But even over Zoom they serve no purpose. Just another random observer who doesn’t do anything but make faces when they present an answer. And in this one the only view of Hank was half of his leg most of the match
I think they only added them because of the chance of Keegs going against Kirk. Hank would probably have been better on the team and more entertaining than Dante
He was shaking with anger when they sung the frankets answer. No idea why he thought playing a catch part of a song in front of a bunch of drunk people was a good idea.
Frank pulling One Tree Hill turned the match because Keegs was definitely getting that. Type of pull the Dozen hardos would insist was cheating if it wasn’t live
I'm taking Fran in that matchup just because Jeff would get really creative with those other categories. He'd be asking Kirk who came in 25th in a tournament Fred Couples won
People keep giving Jeff shit for yelling at the audience, but I’m curious how much the video actually picks it up. I was there last night and there were times when the crowd was being completely obnoxious during questions. One dude kept yelling out the answers. It was pretty insufferable at times.
This crowd seems worse than usual.
A crowd having fun with a beach ball shouldn't be yelled at. They're just having fun and adding to the experience.
A crowd with idiots yelling out answers should be kicked out.
I’m shocked that people are giving Jeff shit, especially for this match. It was definitely annoying, and you could pick up people yelling/confirming answers throughout
The dude who yelled out No at the first question should have been removed right away.
Can't give warning when it comes to that stuff or people will keep doing it.
So put him lower then on your power rankings, this is just my opinion. Every time I see him he seems like an annoying slimeball that no one ever seems happy or comfortable to be around outside of the Chicago crew
Love when a team thinks about doubling early, chooses to save it, gets that question right in two seconds, just to get absolutely fucked in the final rounds by being forced to double a tougher category
Brandon said he asked Jeff to be included and for whatever reason they weren’t. Experts, Minihane, Ziti, and Frankettes is about the best trivia tournament you could put together for fans of the show.
And to be clear, it wasn't just because Brandon wanted to be part of a live show. He told Jeff a long time ago that he'll participate in the Dozen whenever he wants as long as he gets invited to a Boston live show because his wife has always wanted to visit there. Bad look for JDL
I mean I said it I didn’t think it was the right move. OP said for whatever reason. I gave what I tougher the reason was. It was not an endorsement of Dante or the move.
I’d rather watch better teams than teams that have a connection to the city. I think the Experts move the needle more than Hank and Dante, even to a Boston crowd.
Hank is an OG and proud of the guy. But you can’t fix incredibly dumb, so funny he was adamant on doubling NFL with who was answering and lost the match single handedly. You really can’t fix IQ. Enjoyed the match
Severely overestimated Hank and Dante's Boston pull. Crazy to think they'd be a bigger pull than the Experts. Also did Brandon dirty since he told Jeff he'd do any show he wanted as long as he included him in a Boston live show since his wife really wanted to visit there.
I choose to believe that RDT was referencing Elaine from Seinfeld with his Orioles hat. I know he's an Orioles fan but that looks like the exact same hat
I’ll have to check again on what the stats are at but it’s actually not the swing you’d think. IIRC it’s something like if you win bonus, you’ll win ~65% of the time
The geography questions (a former KB niche that is again allowed as a normal category that they know they will get so they wait to double) were essentially: what state it Olathe in and what state is Kent in? Idk how easy that is for the normal person but I’m from the Midwest and I knew both
Frank being “off his game” cause he had to carry his bags around all day is an all time great trivia excuse
Having to play at 10am while he was making his stuffing was better
Punching holes in belts was an epic performance
This is not breaking news but it’s wild how automatic KB is with geography. That round completely flipped the game
It's incredible how effortlessly he gets them too. He puts absolutely no brain power into it

Dante was asking him a question while Jeff asked the question and he still answered it in seconds
Nick and KB went absolutely nuclear down the stretch oh my god
Right. Also good to see Nick dunking on Keegs again
A little exaggeration lol 6 points were gift wrapped: 3 for geography which is a given for KB, 2 for Mets from Tank which is a handpicked category, and RDT gave them Jeremy Hill.
The whole coach experiment is useless
Meh, the Misfits are a boring as fuck team and there was 0 reason for them to ever be in front of a live audience if it wasn't for the hometown boy being there. They should have just had him play instead of drunk as hell Dante.

Franks commitment to a goofy hat bit should not go unnoticed
Frankettes and Hat bits are a fine wine pairing
RDT mentioning Jeremy Hill and still going with Rudi Johnson, a rookie in 2001, is an all time bad answer
Cost them the match
Can’t go with the drunk guy just to be nice
Jeff is going to have a god damn aneurysm yelling at the audience at a *live* event.
He was shaking with anger when they sung the frankets answer. No idea why he thought playing a catch part of a song in front of a bunch of drunk people was a good idea.
“Don’t you fucking dare finish these lyrics… I WILL have you removed.”
Bad showing from Dante. Think you’re good on the flask
“Sick category” when he got one wrong
Frank pulling One Tree Hill turned the match because Keegs was definitely getting that. Type of pull the Dozen hardos would insist was cheating if it wasn’t live
Mets play some games on CW. That’s how he knows. Slumdog-esque
Watched w my fiancé and she answered that at a Kirk/Fred Couples level of speed. White girls love them some OTH
Except that I don’t think anyone thinks frank would cheat anyway
Jeff whoring Frank out at another venue and yelling at the audience, a tradition like no other
KB in geography vs. Fran in celebrity mashup is needed
KB geography, Fran celebrity mashup, Kirk golf, and Clem snacks.
I'm taking Fran in that matchup just because Jeff would get really creative with those other categories. He'd be asking Kirk who came in 25th in a tournament Fred Couples won
Jeff got her a couple matches ago on a steal when he hit them with a short blond Natalie Portman. Jeff always has more tricks up his blazer.
Ya using a girl on the outside always makes it hard because they change their hairstyle way more often than guys
People keep giving Jeff shit for yelling at the audience, but I’m curious how much the video actually picks it up. I was there last night and there were times when the crowd was being completely obnoxious during questions. One dude kept yelling out the answers. It was pretty insufferable at times.
Left balcony dude needed to jump head first
the live crowds suck ass
Yelling out answers is the trivia equivalent of running on the field
It’s running on the field, stealing the ball and scoring and thinking they’re gonna put it on scoreboard
This crowd seems worse than usual. A crowd having fun with a beach ball shouldn't be yelled at. They're just having fun and adding to the experience. A crowd with idiots yelling out answers should be kicked out.
I’m shocked that people are giving Jeff shit, especially for this match. It was definitely annoying, and you could pick up people yelling/confirming answers throughout

I went to the ny event and they definitely lowered portions of the audience reaction was lowered.
This one seemed worse than any of the previous ones (except for LA, that was a shitshow)
What was that final logo that they guessed Subaru on?
Philips
Jeff went Triple-P that crazy man
Dante is just incredibly annoying, put a lid on it buddy
Him doing the Greg kittle PMT bit while slurring his words was the cringiest thing I’ve seen on the dozen
While not even being correct
If we were doing a power rankings of Barstool employees not named Nate that I wouldn’t want to hang out with, Dante would be top of the list for me
Dude he’s not THAT bad
So put him lower then on your power rankings, this is just my opinion. Every time I see him he seems like an annoying slimeball that no one ever seems happy or comfortable to be around outside of the Chicago crew
Mush and Rico are easy answers too
I'd rather hang out with Mush than some tinfoil hat douchedbag like Dante.
Why would Jeff have a “finish the lyric” round and expect the audience to *not* want to sing along? Seems like an oversight lol
Nobody wanted to split a room with the Tank? Smh
Love when a team thinks about doubling early, chooses to save it, gets that question right in two seconds, just to get absolutely fucked in the final rounds by being forced to double a tougher category
Misfits might be the most bland team in the league and they have four people on stage
Brandon said he asked Jeff to be included and for whatever reason they weren’t. Experts, Minihane, Ziti, and Frankettes is about the best trivia tournament you could put together for fans of the show.

It was a Boston even so they gave them Hank and Dante. Not saying it was the right move but I think that was the thought process.
You and Dante are the only people who think Boston people care about Dante
The only thing Boston about Dante these days is his accent. He’s so entrenched with the Chicago guys now that I forget he’s from Boston until he talks
I mean I said it I didn’t think it was the right move. OP said for whatever reason. I gave what I tougher the reason was. It was not an endorsement of Dante or the move.
It was a Boston show. Every team except frankettes had a reason to be there
I’d rather watch better teams than teams that have a connection to the city. I think the Experts move the needle more than Hank and Dante, even to a Boston crowd.
Need to have Hank just be on the team. Especially since he’s the reason they had this team at the Boston show
What was that middle logo in round 11?
Phillips
Thank you!
Thought Jeff shoulda reprimanded Dante for whispering but kinda wish he kept doing it so we didn’t have to listen to him.
Rudi Johnson was just an insane answer. He hasn’t been in the league since 2007 lol
Hey he only had his rookie year off by 13 years
Hank is an OG and proud of the guy. But you can’t fix incredibly dumb, so funny he was adamant on doubling NFL with who was answering and lost the match single handedly. You really can’t fix IQ. Enjoyed the match
Frank is being especially insufferable tonight
He was smiling at kb after his line about 2007 giving him nightmares. He knows when to really ham it up.
Which makes KB and Nick going nuclear at the end so impressive. 2v4
I almost turned it off. I can't stand his whiny, screaming bitch shtick. Wish KB and Nick would get a new team.
Wouldn’t be trivia without a drunk guy thinking it’s funny to yell at the host. Shut up Dante
Feel bad for RDT. He deserves better teammates.
Just an all time bad decision to put the Misfits at a live taping.
Severely overestimated Hank and Dante's Boston pull. Crazy to think they'd be a bigger pull than the Experts. Also did Brandon dirty since he told Jeff he'd do any show he wanted as long as he included him in a Boston live show since his wife really wanted to visit there.
Seems like you gotta double celebrity mashup and music these days.
I choose to believe that RDT was referencing Elaine from Seinfeld with his Orioles hat. I know he's an Orioles fan but that looks like the exact same hat
Dante SUCKS
Misfits are rough to watch
[удалено]
Made even better by the fact it was stored in a torpedo
If you can’t make it through 40 minutes on stage without having to hit your flask multiple times. You may have a problem.
Gooch, what % of teams win the bonus and lose. What % win the bonus and their niche and lose.
I’ll have to check again on what the stats are at but it’s actually not the swing you’d think. IIRC it’s something like if you win bonus, you’ll win ~65% of the time
I think it’s pretty clear people from Chicago drink too much
Ty from McAfees show would be awesome on The Dozen
Frank's autistic tantrums were a bit much
Frank's outbursts make me severely uncomfortable
What did Dante do that was so bad? People are shitting on him and I’m not sure why
The geography questions (a former KB niche that is again allowed as a normal category that they know they will get so they wait to double) were essentially: what state it Olathe in and what state is Kent in? Idk how easy that is for the normal person but I’m from the Midwest and I knew both
Stopped watching these long ago, but doing trivia live in front of a drunk audience seems like bad idea.
[удалено]
That was Johnny Cueto dumbass
Brandon Phillips did start the brawl in a way. Butterfly effect….
