J.T Kurbis was asked during the offseason to be a guest judge on Chopped, the hit reality TV cooking show in which contestants pit their culinary skills against each other in skills challenges through three different rounds. It was an experience for Kurbis, who had dealings with TV in the past. This one was slightly different, mostly because he would be displaying his skills at eating, something Kurbis needed to be quite proficient at as an Offensive Lineman. Though he would repeatedly remind the contestants of his underdeveloped palette, Kurbis would display a likable, oafish personality that would further endear him to the other judges and some fans around the world. His favorite dish would be the appetizer octopus tacos, which he would rave about, and was quoted as saying “If I could get these every night for dinner, I would have no trouble gaining weight.” These quotes opened more eyes in the general public to the obscene diets of offensive linemen in professional football leagues.
Given it was his final year in London, Scott thought it would be relevant to attend the gameshow 'Countdown'. Altho he never really grew up watching the show, he did become fond of it in his teenage years watching it on YouTube alongside The Big Fat Quiz of the Year. He definitely did not go to college for school however, and opted to try for humor instead of an actual win much to his teammates' chagrin. After getting absolutely nowhere in the first round of numbers, he was already joking he might have been better off assisting the dictionary corner instead of competing. He even could've done a "skit", which ended up being the largest word he could figure out in the letter jumble. Overall, his appearance on the show would be good TV but nothing notable amongst the score keepers. On his way out, he made sure to get tax advice from Jimmy Carr who's age can't be seen on his face but rather in his eyes.

NORMAN "Big Wiggle" SMILEY
Seattle Serpents star safety Felix Waterman was invited to participate in one of Fox's game\ reality shows. At the suggestion of his agent he would choose to be apart of Lego Masters. As a boy who had a box of asorted bricks that were in a eternal state of reconstruction, to be able to work with some amazing builders was a childhood dream come true. This competition would test Felix's creativity, ability to plan ahead and skill under pressure, all ability that are key to his success on the field. Many people were expecting Felix and his partner to bow out early, but they would surprise many by almost making the finals. He would build a bridge capable of supporting an average weight of an adult. His Tiny Tower enspired tower with controllable elevator was praised. But the life sized wedding cake was so good many believe that he should have made the finals. He got a trip to Lego headquarters in Denmark and many of the expenses Lego sets
At his agent's insistence on trying to capitalize on the notoriety from being drafted to the DSFL, Rookie Drake Wane was able to land a spot on Wheel of Fortune. Due to the haste of the application process (and only corresponding with his agent, Harlan "Big Dollar" McCrory, via letter correspondence), Drake's arrived onset to find that his nametag read "Derek". Harlan always said, or rather, wrote, that the only name that matters is the one that's on the check, so Drake decided not to make a scene. After an uninspiring effort in the first puzzle (Television Show: "The Facts of Life"), Drake managed to scrape together a few consonants to attempt to solve the puzzle: "Phrase: OVER THE H_LL". When attempting to solve the puzzle, Drake confidently announced: "OVER. THE... HULL!" After the crowd audibly groaned, Derek Drake's protest to the show's producers forced an early commercial break. "I just googled it, Over the Hull is a phrase. It's nautical. You said to solve for a phrase and I solved a phrase. The "fortune" in Wheel of Fortune implies a great sum of wealth, not being able to predict the future like a fortune-teller. Honor the game, sir!"
When he show returned from break, Drake had been replaced with Carl Liggins, the runner-up in South Dakota's 4H's Young Future Leaders Essay Contest. Following the taping, Harlan's most recent letter (which was devoid of postage, costing Drake 84 cents) offered encouragement of future, more lucrative TV appearances. In addition to McCrory's Correspondence Sports Agency, Harlan also runs a self-paced "Telegenic Development" course that is "guaran-damn-teed" to result in screentime for talented future media starlets. The enclosed advertisement prompted: "For a small fee of $4,000 (cash made out to check) you too can learn the secrets of booking, appearances, and production." The back of the advertisement had course alumni testimonials, crediting Harlan and his course for their recent media success. Most prominently was the picture of a young man, arms crossed, with a name tag on with the caption reading: "Thanks to Harlan's course I was able to make my fortune! - Carl Liggins, Game Show winner".
Wheel of Fortune is not an easy game show for Legs McMillion. Well, most game shows aren't easy for him, but especially not this one. First off, he can't even spin the damn wheel. He has no way of reaching it and it's not very leg-friendly. Second, he can't see the board to even begin to guess the phrase, due to his lack of eyes and whatnot. Third, some of the puzzles are just stupid. I'm sorry, but have you seen Wheel of Fortune lately? It's like they're running out of words phrases so they're just making stuff up now.
Overall, there's just no way for Legs to compete in a game show like Wheel of Fortune. He would have much preferred The Price is Right, as most of that is just luck anyways. Plus he'd get to meet Drew Carey, which isn't exactly exciting but it's better than the dude who hosts Wheel of mf Fortune. Disclaimer: If Princess Donut talks, its in caps lock. I apologize for any offense taken with this.
