Obviously, there's something people like about him, though it is beyond me, but your'e simply citing more reasons NOT to. Yet, he won the wild card...

Where did I say he was going to win because I made those comments? I'm only talking about WHY some people seem to like him quite a bit and others just DON'T even a little. I don't think he stand a chance of winning. Even I like Alonzo more than him, and I'm relatively a fan of his.

Many of the greatest comedians or comedians/actors polarize audiences. It's just how it is. Some prefer wit, others physical comedy, still others humor that's blue. Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell...some people detest them but they manage to bring in the crowds regardless. What really matters is that you find what works best for you, and keep going.

I'm glad Jay is here this season. I admittedly had little comedic knowledge (Stephen Wright, Emo Phillips) and like his choice to do this type of comedy. I grew up in the age of Coreys and Alonzos, biting social commentary and/or gender jokes, so Jay's puns are a welcome change for me. Heffron is my favorite, but I've enjoyed Jay every night. IMO, he deserves to be there.

After Jay's last two performances, I have really been rooting for him. I'd love to see him win the thing, but I don't see it happening. I hope he goes to the top three. I'd like to see more from him.
