EA Sports Game Show
EA Sports GameShow was a live-hosted online trivia game show, made available as a free PC download. GameShow was first publicly mentioned by Peter Moore in September 2007, not long after he took over as president of EA Sports. GameShow debuted as a public beta on October 23, 2007, with the first public trivia session being Our Favorite Day - October 23rd. GameShow came to an end on July 25, 2008.
Operating out of EA Tiburon's Orlando studios, live trivia sessions were hosted for at least six hours each day by a team of radio professionals. Players were encouraged to interact with the game and the hosts in a variety of ways, including live polls, text messages and phone calls.

Famous quotes containing the words sports, game and/or show:
“Short of a wholesale reform of college athletics—a complete breakdown of the whole system that is now focused on money and power—the women’s programs are just as doomed as the men’s are to move further and further away from the academic mission of their colleges.... We have to decide if that’s the kind of success for women’s sports that we want.”
—Christine H. B. Grant, U.S. university athletic director. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A42 (May 12, 1993)
“Even an attorney of moderate talent can postpone doomsday year after year, for the system of appeals that pervades American jurisprudence amounts to a legalistic wheel of fortune, a game of chance, somewhat fixed in the favor of the criminal, that the participants play interminably.”
—Truman Capote (1924–1984)
“The reason I’m in this business, I assume all performers are—it’s “Look at me, Ma!” It’s acceptance, you know—”Look at me, Ma, look at me, Ma, look at me, Ma.” And if your mother watches, you’ll show off till you’re exhausted; but if your mother goes, Ptshew!”
—Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
