Ah, sports again. With but one DQ left to be asked. Hmmm…
IQ1: Are you a MLB star nicknamed “The Say Hey Kid”?
IQ2: Were you a running back for the Chicago Bears and instrumental in their 1985 Super Bowl win?
IQ3: Are you the current QB for th Seattle Seahawks?
Not Willie Mays, not William “The Refrigerator” Perry, dunno.
Since this would take us up to (and maybe past) 20 DQs, there should be no more IQs. Any already-earned but unasked DQs should be asked by noon EST tomorrow.
correct, Walter Payton, Russell Wilson
DQ: Known for baseball?
DQ: Known for football?
DQ: Known for basketball?
All correct.
I did have one reserved, though.
DQ: Known within sports primarily for your participation as a player or athlete?
Because of the recent unfortunate SDMB crash and our missed deadline, I’ll answer these last DQs.
