Wow. That is incredible.

Only one person thought the board consensus would be any of our 3 most recent championships.

Wow. That is incredible.

Yea, I do think it's kind of telling, in an inadvertent way, just which of our championships is most revered. Same with the greatest rival question.

 

[KingOPancakes]

"53-41" just doesn't have the same ring to it that "77-74" does.

Minicoop69 getting a little more separation, plenty within striking distance.

 

[Tenspro2002]

@Minicoop69 is pitching a perfect game so far. Surely that can't hold up.

 

[Mano]

Blast from the past:

Question #9

Name a current NCAA basketball referee.

(I realize now that I've really no way of corroborating whether any of these guys are active or not, so everyone gets a point)

 

[OkaForPrez]

Teddy V!

 

[Tenspro2002]

I relied on a better, less recent KO outburst for name recognition of my referee.

 

[Deepster]

Mr. Walker (-16) : Matrim55, Tenspro2002, RayIsTheGOAT, partyATkemba, DaveHuskiesFan, Cassius Klaiber, KingOPancakes, Minicoop69, jfuchs91, KemBuckets21, CTBasketball, Chin Diesel, mauconnfan, Giscombe12, bcisco, breezy

[Minicoop69]

I had a hard time with this one.

 

[Mano]

(I can't believe nobody chose these)

Question #10:

Name a movie starring an NBA player.

 

[Tenspro2002]

I would be shocked if this isn't at least 18 people with the same answer.

 

[Mano]

He Got Game (-17) : Matrim55, Tenspro2002, partyATkemba, DaveHuskiesFan, Cassius Klaiber, KingOPancakes, Minicoop69, jfuchs91, KemBuckets21, CTBasketball, mauconnfan, Deepster, KOisKing, Giscombe12, bcisco, david, breezy

Space Jam (-2) : RayIsTheGOAT, navery12

The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh (0) : Chin Diesel

How does @RayIsTheGOAT pick Space Jam over He Got Game?!

 

[Mano]

Question #11:

Name a UConn player that was left-handed.

 

[Mano]

Some interesting replies for this one:

Righthanders who are definitely not lefthanders:

Taliek Brown (0) : partyATkemba

A.J. Price (0) : Cassius Klaiber

Kevin Freeman (0) : Chin Diesel

Ben Gordon (0) : breezy

Part of me wants to penalize these answers, SMH.
