Just throwing it out there...

If 177 has a different champion to start, than whoever it was at the end of 175, that'll be a bit of a red flag.

Uh-oh...
To the guy who remembered seeing the original broadcast, how long did your winter break last?

(Says the man who remembers watching the original broadcast...)
I don't remember how my winter break was scheduled back then. OR, as I have said before, I may have had a snow day when Stephen returned. But what is for certain:
I saw his return, and Jay & Company did not just sneak him in with little fanfare --- far from it!!!
That is all I will continue to say for now.

This may be a bit much to ask, but do you remember if they uttered the name "blackie" in his return appearance? If they did, that would more than likely get it on the skips list now.
TimK2003:
I'm pretty sure that the nickname was mentioned at least once upon his return to the champion seat, picking up where he left off.
It would be a shame that Buzzr would skip the episode(s) that he appeared on post-injury instead of muting/editing out any references to his self-titled nickname.

Well yes, and....
Wait. EpisodeS?
EDIT: He appeared on more than one? So he DIDN'T win his first re-attempt at the Gauntlet?

Yeah, if BUZZR can mute the word "midget", they can mute this too.

Only now, they seem to be more about throwing out the baby with the bathwater. Hence them skipping episodes altogether.
I guess people complaining about the muting out made them decide to not bother with airing the whole episode. Kind of like how we didn't want credit crunches (they asked), so they cut out fee plugs instead.
