It is from the end of the Extract Obliteration, where Sheldon and Stephen Hawking are playing a game of Words with Friends. Sheldon just threw the game to prevent Hawking from disliking him, and Hawking said "I really enjoyed our game, Doctor Cooper. Or should I say Doctor Loser? Do you like brain teasers? What do Sheldon Cooper and a black hole have in common? They both suck. Neener-neener."
Frank's use of this video could mean a few things, and since I have nothing better to do right now, I will describe them.
#1: Next year's game might have something to do with Words or Friends. Friends = alliance size/composition?
#2: Next year's game might use voice commands to drive the robot, possibly during an auto/hybrid period similar to 2012's Kinect. (Notice also how the BBT episode is from 2012)
#3: Throwing the game might be useful next year especially if you want to have a certain "friendship" (see #1)
#4: Stephen Hawking will be the guest speaker (or electronic speaker) in St. Louis next year. (wouldn't that be cool?)
#5: Frank wants us to overanalyze his use of a Big Bang Theory video while he secretly plans a water game.
#6: Frank just used the video to tease everyone about how "he knows the game" - but that can't be it. We all know that everything Frank posts has an intricate hidden meaning pertaining to next season.
I do want to point out, though, that even if this post has absolutely no game hint, Frank did tell us that he knows the game. Therefore, they are planning well in advance compared to last year's (seemingly) last-minute game choice. FIRST GDC already knows what they are going to do for next year, so I really hope they understand the negative feedback they received for this year's game and know how to fix it for next year.
