[QUOTE=anyrose] How the heck could Mount Rushmore be at the bottom of that list? It’s an outrage, I tell ya! [/QUOTE] I actually had a method to determine where the 11 items would rank. I will explain when this is done if you like. Besides, ranking actually only matters for determining which team gets control up front. All answers are worth one point. ---
