After watching today's episode I've decided they will let anyone play on this show.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude.

I tuned-in late and barely saw him, is he autistic or something?

So I'm guessing they didn't explain the situation huh?

They've had people who physically couldn't spin the wheel and had a silent partner do it for them,
and Pat explained the situation then, I thought maybe there was a comment about it this time.

On GMA this morning they said he's had 9 brain surgeries and open-heart surgery. He suffers from Asperger's and Tourette's.

I thought it was the best episode EVER. When he howled with anguish after hitting "bankrupt", and Pat just said "...wow...".

This was great television. I wish this guy was on at least once a week!

Give him a break. He obviously has no grasp of socially acceptable behavior and was probably ridiculed his whole life.

Just because he has a disability doesn't mean he shouldn't be allowed to be a contestant.
