HQ Trivia's Scott Rogowsky explained his decision to step away from the ultra-popular trivia app. The host, known affectionately as Quiz Daddy, is leaving for a new baseball show on upstart sports network DAZN. He explained on Twitter that he attempted to stay on at HQ Trivia, but couldn't make it work.

Rogowsky used the sign-off to thank HQ Trivia fans for watching him.

"Nothing made be prouder than watching the viewer count grow from 2 digits to 2 commas," he wrote. "Thank you for the outpouring of kind tweets and messages. I shall humbly remain your Quiz Daddy Emeritus, and I look forward to gettin down to the nitty-gritty and gettin this new show #ChangeUp on the road."

Quiz Daddy is far from the new network's biggest acquisition. They signed Mexican boxer Canelo Alvarez to a $365 million deal for 11 marquee fights.
