New IQ:
Did you make a movie about a scientist with anger issues?

56

Question for the ref!

I was thinking of Adam LaRoche. He’s the current first baseman and I think the wording of my question would point to him rather a past player (“do you play” as opposed to “did you play”). Can I get a DQ, or does your answer qualify as a valid response?

57

Do sing for a band with a colour and a number in their name?

58

Are you the star kicker for the Springfield Nittany Tide?

59

Don’t know. Ask a DQ.

divemaster, post 24 was already about LaRoche. Since the questions have ranged across the present and past, and we’ve been referring to AL in the present tense even though he’s already established as being dead, I’m not sure how to respond. If you believe you’re entitled to a DQ, though, go ahead and ask one.

HongKongFooey, no, I’m not Adam Levine of Maroon 5.

Kid_A, no, I’m not Anton Lubchenko.

DQ: Are you an athlete?
