Not everyone knows sports. And thatâs OK. Because most people donât know about a lot of topics. History, mathematics, literature, the Royal Family, puppetry, snakes -- thereâs just a lot of stuff to know about in the world. And not knowing what the name of the only NBA franchise named after an extinct prehistoric species is shouldnât be that embarrassing.
Now, betting all of the money youâve earned on âJeopardy!â and being wrong about it? Well ...

Thatâs just straight brutal.
A timberwolf does sound ancient, it seems like one of those mutant huge animals from the late Jurassic era. But the Raptors have been around since the â90s. Theyâre the easy pick here.
Maybe sheâs a huge NBA fan, though. Maybe thatâs why she bet it all on the Wolves (which this year is just a bad plan no matter the context). She was just so sure and didnât stop to think about it. Youâre on national television and you hear âancient animal,â you think the Wolves are more than just wolves, because otherwise theyâd just be called the Wolves and not the Timberwolves.
But yeah, thatâs probably going to sting for her for a while.
