Lowering the Bar...

Was watching "Chopped" on The Food Network...think of "Elimidate", but instead of a dude booting one of 4 original girls each round, it's 3 culunary experts dropping one of 4 chefs each round.

During the judging of Round 1 the judges were disappointed that 3 of the 4 chefs under-cooked their chicken dish, and said that as a result the one chef who fully-cooked his, pretty much won the round by default. Judge Geoffrey Zakarian said, "The other 3 just lowered the bar so far that he shimmied under it without a problem."

...WHAT?!? They LOWERED it so far that it was easy for him to go UNDER it?!? "Raising or Lowering the Bar" is a reference to the sport of High Jump...NOT THE LIMBO!!!
