Then there are his asinine questions about professional sports.  
You’d think that somebody who’s a major fan of a specific year of a specific team (i.e., '96 Yankees) would at least have a very basic understanding of how professional sports work. [Why don't teams threepeat, fourpeat, or ninepeat?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-dont-teams-threepeat-fourpeat-or-ninepeat/855514)

“Shouldn’t teams aim for a ninepeat, or an thirteenthpeat?”

What an idea! Why didn’t I think of that?[https://en.meming.world/images/en/thumb/8/82/My\_Goodness\_What\_an\_Idea.jpg/300px-My\_Goodness\_What\_an\_Idea.jpg](https://en.meming.world/images/en/thumb/8/82/My_Goodness_What_an_Idea.jpg/300px-My_Goodness_What_an_Idea.jpg)
