And…time! Yeah, I know, just one more to go, but I’m about to be away from the computer for a long time and I’d rather not leave things hanging. So, here goes. As always, I had to make certain answering assumption which is why running (which is ensconced in T&F) was folded into Track & Field but Cal Ripken (since the dad is an option) was not the same as Cal Ripken, Jr. Since the big cash prize for winning this is equal to the value of my autograph, I am not too concerned with impacting the integrity of the feud.

That being said, first the answers:
With 49 entrants, each answer was worth 2.08 points.
Soccer for # 6 was the most uniform answer. Question 5 had the most unique answers. Dan Elway as Super Bowl MVP is officially my favorite answer.

Holy Crap! I finally won one. Its a freaking miracle.
Thanks Mullinator!

76

Psst, Cal Ripken Sr is not in the Hall of Fame while Cal Ripken Jr is. So dad is not an option. :stuck_out_tongue:

But good game, these were great questions. Damn those LA people, I coulda been a contenduh!

And can we ask the mods to just mark these threads as “Completed” instead of closing the thread? I really enjoy the after game discussion.

77

Curse you Babe Ruth!

78

How many people incurred the wrath of the Penalizer?

79

ETA D’oh! #33. Mea Culpa, and apologies!!!

Middle of the pack again? :frowning:
