Tonight's game, look for some explosive offense like what you see on the football field. Those teams are prepared, but the high-scoring puzzle solvers (the civilians) call their own letters. Let's see if we can see all 26 letters in play tonight...
EPISODE #4183: NFL PLAYERS WEEK
Airdate: 1/5/05
Wednesday's football stars...
Nate Burleson (Minnesota Vikings)
Eric Dickerson (LA Rams)
Willie McGinest (New England Patriots)
Go!
Brenda solves SCORES & HIGHLIGHTS.

Diane Rosebud & Eric Dickerson: Beverly Hills, CA. Legal assistant who loves singing, interior decorating and football (of course). Eric's playing for the San Antonio Hospital Foundation.
Lauren Picod & Willie McGinest: Coventry, RI. Customer service representative for a major health company who enjoys playing poker (with actual money). Willie's been with the Patriots his whole career (10-11 years) and is part of the 55-Entertainment company (music). He's playing for the Ability First benefiting Freedom Schools.
Go!
Diane solves LONGHORN CATTLE.
GIFT TAGS: DIRECTV (incl. 2005 Sunday Ticket pkg.) KRAIKO (diamonds)

JACKPOT ROUND

DUD: I (Lauren/WIllie)
BANKRUPTS: 2 (those that didn't solve)
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $6,750
MYSTERY ROUND
PERFECTION! Brenda solves SPORTS ILLUSTRATED'S SPORTSFAN OF THE YEAR.
Well, Team Dickerson is trailing behind by a lot as Team Nate has built a commanding lead. But can the leaders maintain their spot in the Bonus Round?
I no-lettered this one.
Go!
Brenda's team won't go FROM ZERO TO HERO as she's added to their lead.
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $6,000!
Diane/Eric: P ($7,050+)
Diane solves PERKING LOT ATTENDANT to keep the Pro Bowl trip. Not enough for the win, however.
LOSE A TURN: Brenda/Nate
FINAL SCORES
Once again, the Free Spin gets unnoticed...
WINNINGS SO FAR (NON-CHARITY): $32,650
BANKRUPT TRASH: $400
BONUS ROUND:
Well, Brenda and Nate were able to survive a $6,000 speed-up, so could this mean something big? Anyway, Brenda's parents and fiancé watch her spin the H.
RSTLNE gives 40%:
BFCI almost completes the story...
I wished she called the Z, but it doesn't matter - BLITZ has won the team another $45,000! Brenda's taking home $63,050 in cash & DirecTV while that amount goes to Nate's charity.
Tomorrow's lineup...
Drew Brees (San Diego Chargers)
Rod Smith (Denver Broncos)
Robert Gallery (Oakland Raiders)
And thanks to that win in the end, it seems like Brenda's poised to go to the Super Bowl...
Slo-mo BR win in end.
