General Sports Trivia

[V.I.]

Ty Law?

[spurgistan]

Nope, think Mr. Law's (I loved when the Pat's secondary had Law and Lawyer Milloy) peak was about 5 short of the record, as I recall.

[rhoges6]

I'm not sure if he played the right position, but was it Rhonde Barber? probably didn't spell that right either.

[spurgistan]

I'll tell you when. If you want a hint, I've actually got a pretty fun one.

[tubaman]

Yeah lets take that hint.

[spurgistan]

OK - the player with the highest single-season interception total has is nicknamed after the preeminent "bum wine".

If that doesn't help, he started playing in the NFL over 50 years ago.

[rhoges6]

Well, I generally don't care much for American football, and I'm only 19, so I don't think I'll be answering this one.

[spurgistan]

Telling a new one tomorrow.

[Gold Knight]

Good to see the sports trivia thread didnt completely die, good to see spurg bringing in the old night train question...

Dick "Nighttrain" Lane, i think it was 13 or 14 interceptions...

[Gold Knight]

I know the players name was right, so ill post a new question here.

Who scored the most points in a NFL regular season game? And just so I dont get a bunch of wrong answers right away, its been a while since it happened...

[V.I.]

Jim Brown?

[Gold Knight]

Jim Brown?

No sir, the player that accomplished this feat is not as well known as Mr. Brown and others, though is a RB...

[Gold Knight]

Alright time for some hints and a bump...

- Also a major league pitcher, gave up two homeruns to Babe Ruth in his 60 HR season.
- Position was fullback
- Scored six touchdowns and kicked 4 extra points in the record breaking game
- Ranked #25 by ESPN of Top College Football Players All-Time

[multiplayertim]

was is Paul Hornung of the Green Bay Packers

[multiplayertim]

i know i'm right so

In the 1995 rugby world cup a record 5 drop goals were kicked in 1 match from which country was the player that kicked them

[Sentinel XIV]

It's almost been a month. I'm going to take a guess that no one knows the answer to this question. I'll throw out an easy one in the hopes that the thread gets moving again.


Who played left field for the infamous 1919 Chicago "Black" Sox?

[drake_259]

Joe Jackson?


What Football Team Does Paul Benson Play At?

[Sentinel XIV]

I think you might need to clarify if you mean European football, or American football. We have a pretty diverse group 'round these parts.

[drake_259]

European

[multiplayertim]

paul benson sounds like he plays in england and i know most of the more famous players could you give a clue i mean i don't think he even plays in the premiership

[drake_259]

he does play in england

i'll give a better clue tomorrow

[drake_259]

Today the team won 6-0

[rhoges6]

some team in league two i think cause shrewsbury beat macclesfield 4-0 and weren't even top of the table cause of goal difference. can't remember the team though, might have been darlington?

[rhoges6]

hang on, i just looked at your little club logo there. I think i might change my guess to Dagenham & Redbridge

[drake_259]

well done, your turn lol
