OT: Sports trivia. Part three.
- Thread starter skysdad
- Start date
My memory is not as good as it used to be. I said Mahomes because it seemed obvious, but I knew that it was almost certainly the wrong answer. I finally remembered hearing fifty times during Super Bowl Week that Ben Roethlisberger is the youngest winner. Even though he looked 33 when he was 21
Final Answer: Ben Roethlisberger
Final Answer: Ben Roethlisberger
By the way dtodd, you are correct. Roethlisberger was 23. I was just trying to say that he never looked particularly young. Mahomes was 24 when he won this year. Looked much younger than Roethlisberger. I just googled. It looks like Brady is the second youngest with Super Bowl 36 in 2001. So it looks like Brady was 23 and more months than Big Ben
dtodd4475 is correct. Podoloff was Commissioner of the NBA. Probably the first Commissioner, 1949-1963. The NBA MVP Trophy is named for him. dtodd is up!
I should play the lottery today. I went to 3 Cubs games at Wrigley in 1979, and Kingman hit HRs in all three. I'll have a question in a few minutes
If no one knows all four how are you going to determine who's up next. . Just asking. OFC
Correct! A repeat of Jesse Owens in 1936 at Berlin. Carl Lewis won 9 Gold and 1 Silver Medal in his career: 1984, 1988 and 1992
Center field at the Polo Grounds was over 480 feet. Only 4 players homered to center during games there in it's history.
Luke Easter (Negro League game),Joe Adcock, and Hank Aaron (MLB games) are 3 who accomplished this feat.
What Hall of Famer is the 4th player to have also cleared center field at the Polo Grounds ?

I'm glad that I'm wrong. Kingman was a complete correct guess earlier today. Ott hit 511 home runs for the Giants between 1926-1947 so he seemed a good guess
I read tonight that Kingman s HR was severely wind aided in the famous 23-22 game in May 1979 against the Phillies. Kingman only played 3 seasons for the Cubs.
I meant the correct answer did not play for the Giants, and was not known for his power. Poorly worded hint on my part.
I've been looking at this question wrong from the get go thinking he had to be a Giant and McCovey was gonna be my next guess. Didn't even give a player from another team a second thought so it had to be someone who played before the Giants moved to S.F. That's making it tough. The only name I can come up with is Ernie Banks. OFC
No. I understood what you meant. It was a good clue. I'm the worst for writing in short message board bursts. I was just explaining my reasoning.
