Shades of "Quiz Show?"

Does anyone else think Ken Jennings took a dive on "Jeopardy!" last night? After 74 consecutive wins, earning more than $2 million, Jennings (aka the Jeopardy Guy) lost on this question (excuse me, answer):

Most of this firm's 70,000 seasonal white-collar employees work only four months a year.

The correct "question" was What is H&R Block. Jennings said FedEx.

C'mon, FedEx?!? That seemed like a pretty lame guess to me -- espicially from a brainiac like the Jeopardy Guy.

So let's start the conspiracy theories. Did he just decide it was time to throw in the towel himself? Did Merv Griffin tap him on the shoulder and say, "Enough is enough"?
