[QUOTE=HongKongFooey] No, and I don’t know _any_ race walkers never mind Czech ones. The Botticelli exchange rate is one DQ per two left-overs; 2 DQs for you but don’t go telling all your friends 😉 [/QUOTE] I was just joshin’. I’ll only ask the one I just earned here. Barbara Dibelkova is the Czech race walker. DQ: Are you a political figure? ---

[Quote=Sternvogel] Were you a teammate of The Kid in The Hub? [/Quote] [QUOTE=HongKongFooey] A teammate of Ted Williams?? Damn you, I don’t know who you are. [/QUOTE] I realize this round is over, but for anyone who’s wondering: Bobby Doerr was the Red Sox’ second baseman from 1937 (two years before Williams joined the team) to 1951. Williams retired in 1960, and his final game was the subject of a _New Yorker_ story written by John Updike and titled [_Hub Fans Bid Kid Adieu_.](http://www.baseball-almanac.com/articles/hub_fans_bid_kid_adieu_article.shtml) ---
