Julio Franco, Mickey Vernon,Rod Carew. Had to play on bad teams. And why isn't Mickey Vernon in the Hall?


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 07-28-2022

Good guesses but not the leader


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 07-28-2022

Sammy Sosa, Frank Thomas, Cheater Palmiero?

OK, just to do a changeup name a famous person (real or in print/movie/TV) for each day of the week. I have three athletes on my list.

Rick Monday to get you started.

The cheater Palmairo is number one
Tuesday Weld


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 07-28-2022

Yep. She's on my list. I had to go to a John Ford movie for Thursday and to a Defoe novel for another day. Also to a cartoonist for Wednesday.


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 07-28-2022

I have to skip to Joe Friday


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - cardcrimson - 07-28-2022

Wednesday Friday Addams


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Giants - 07-28-2022

Fred Thursday - Endeavor
Billy Sunday
Jeff Saturday - Colts


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - cardcrimson - 07-28-2022

Saturday was killing me. I knew there was someone, but couldn't remember. Google didn't help much on this one.

As we're onto names, without looking it up, name the players and their positions from the Abbott and Costello routine.


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 07-28-2022

Great job guys. I didn't know the endeavor guy. I can't believe I missed Sgt/Lt Friday. I bet I watched all the Dragnet episodes at least 10 times. I had Aadams, Billy Sunday, Jeff Saturday and Tuesday Weld.

I had Man Friday (Defoe) and Colonel Owen Thursday (Henry Fonda) and his daughter Philadelphia (Shirley Temple) from John Ford's "Fort Apache." I also thought about Sunday Silence who beat Easy Goer in the '89 Breeders Cup Classic, one of the greatest races of all time with the Tom Durkin call that's for the ages.

Positions for those not in the know. . . .

OK Bobbbbb.

Frederick March.
Dustan May. Lee Maye. Willie Mays. Dame May Whitty.
June Allyson. June Cleaver. June Jones.
Augusto Arriolla.

April Margera. Bam's mom.


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - cardcrimson - 07-28-2022

Don January

Saw the June Cleaver reference. Apparently Tony Dow died yesterday of cancer. . . .


RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 07-28-2022

And Eddie Haskell in the last couple of years.

As for Abbot and Costello I think Why and Because played in the outfield. Is there a Naturally? Been a long time since I heard the sketch.

Good memory, but no. Costello thinks Naturally is the first baseman. . . .

Does Reggie Jackson count for October?
