The coffeeshop I visit in the morning for the “medium-medium roast to go” often has a notebook on the counter headed with an open ended question followed by the numbered responses of the morning customers. Recent topics included, “What island would you want to live on?” and “What is your Plan B?”

I was thinking about how close I am to facing a White Sox-Cardinals World Series, so I'm starting a new audience-participation category, “Morning Roundtable” and kicking it off with the Jeopardy question to “A White Sox-Cardinals World Series.”

Morning Roundtable: What's the worst that could happen?

Keep it light. Family tragedies are assumed.
