Bam Shalam. I am good.

Next time, so Neph doesn't get all but hurt :cry:

, I'll make two posts in a row with two guesses :roll:

Oh, shit, sorry, didn't realize that neph had thrown to me.

New question:
Give six names that are shared by two teams from the four major US sports (baseball, football, basketball, and hockey... just to head off all you soccer and nascar people at the pass), i.e. the New York Giants and the San Francisco Giants (obviously this example doesn't count as one of your answers).

Old franchise names are acceptable (and required, quite frankly).

Cardinals

misterman10 · Post by **misterman10** » Fri Dec 07, 2007 9:17 am

New York Rangers and Texas Rangers

Florida Panthers and Carolina Panthers

Nephilim · Post by **Nephilim** » Fri Dec 07, 2007 2:13 pm

ahhh, ottawa senators and old-school washington senators

edmonton oilers and old houston oilers

LA kings and sacramento kings

is that all 6? i'm sure if we looked up old teams we could find more

and are there really 2 braves?

Incandenza · Post by **Incandenza** » Fri Dec 07, 2007 5:34 pm

Cardinals, Rangers, Panthers, Senators, Oilers, and Kings are all correct.

To my knowledge, there haven't been two Braves, but I have a weird feeling that there might have been a Braves basketball team way way back in the day.

The only one that you guys didn't get is the Jets (New York and Winnipeg, now the Phoenix Coyotes). There might be one more, but I'm reasonably confident that's all of them.

Neph, since you got 4/6, you're up.

the chiefs of the nfl used to be the dallas texans i think so that would make 2 texans

0ojakeo0 · Post by **0ojakeo0** » Fri Dec 07, 2007 10:40 pm

There was a boston braves and now the atlanta braves both baseball.

Same franchise, doesn't count.

And good one on the texans, djt. Also I think the Sacremento Kings were at one point the Cincinnati Royals, so there's another.

i'm not gonna have access over the next few days, someone else can take the next one, please

ok then
Name the Player who has the most rushing yards since week 8, and the team he's on

misterman10 · Post by **misterman10** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 10:21 pm

Gotta be Adrian Peterson. If not, its LT. But since some people (won't mention any names) *cough* Neph Baby *cough* get angry when I give two guesses, my guess will be Peterson.

Incandenza · Post by **Incandenza** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 10:31 pm

I don't think so. Purple Jesus sat out at least a week with his tweaked ligament thing...

I'll go with Marshawn Lynch, 'cause why not....

misterman10 · Post by **misterman10** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 10:33 pm

But he did have those 2 consecutive 200 yard games, one that broke the record for most rushing yards in a game with 296. The only problem is I can't remember if those 2 games were after week 8.

Cheesemore · Post by **Cheesemore** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 8:52 pm

No one has it yet (when I said since week 8, I ment weeks 8-13, for the record)
Adrian's not it cause he was out for 2 games, Lynch was hurt as well, LT's doing better, he might have been 3rd
Hint: He's in the AFC

misterman10 · Post by **misterman10** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 8:57 pm

Only one I can think of is speedy Willie Parker, I know he leads the NFL in rush yards, not sure about weeks 8-13.

Cheesemore · Post by **Cheesemore** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 9:47 pm

Nope good guess though, I'll give another hint if no one gets it by tommarow

Gold Knight · Post by **Gold Knight** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 9:48 pm

Ernest Graham? Hes so consistent letely he's got to be up there...

Cheesemore · Post by **Cheesemore** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 9:51 pm

Nope, I'll repeat myself though
He's in the AFC

Incandenza · Post by **Incandenza** » Mon Dec 10, 2007 10:38 pm

Could be LenDale White, I guess...
