OT: Sports trivia. Part three.

[skysdad]

Sonny Sixkiller.

No but that was a good guess. I think Sonny was native american though. Another hint is he played his college football at a Pac 8 school. OFC

 

[skysdad]

He was drafted by the Bengals and played four years there before finishing his career with Tampa Bay. Note that he was the 1st qb taken in the 1979 draft ahead of the 2nd qb taken , Phil Sims and another qb by the name of Joe Montana. OFC

 

[skysdad]

He attended Washington St. and his name is not tradional Samoan. OFC

 

[dtodd4475]

Steve DeBerg ?

 

[skysdad]

Steve DeBerg ?

No, not DeBerg. OFC

 

[skysdad]

He is a native Samoan. OFC

 

[skysdad]

With todays sports media they could refer to him as JaThom. OFC

 

[skysdad]

I really thought someone would have got this right away. It's Jack Thompson. Funny thing that NCirishman said Sonny Sixkiller. Thompson went to Washington St. He at one time wanted to go to Washington because he admired Sixkiller who was at Wash. when Thompson was in high school. Sixkiller never played in the NFL and Thompson's career brief. I don't have a question ready so whoever is ready go ahead. OFC

While down 1 point with 3 seconds left, what player calmly nailed 2 free throws to vault his team to a National Championship.

The "phantom" touch foul call came as he was passing the ball on a kick out from the lane.

 

[Bludvls1]

Joe Quigg(sp) 1957 UNCheat vs Kansas

 

[dtodd4475]

This one is more recent. Watching the replay I cannot believe the call was made. I remember it as iffy, but WOW.

Seton Hall was on the wrong side of the "phantom" call.
