NFL Swampcrash 2023 - Conference Championships

[A_B]

I would never have guessed Volleyball has less than 200 schools…maybe because everyone in the Midwest seems to have it.

I guess I read that as fewer than that many schools that offer the mens version or an option for coed programs. surely there are more than 200 womens programs.

ETA: what rex said

Someone's gotta move these stolen tvs,

[HaulCitgo]

But this is men’s. Probably a Title IX thing

For same reason shocked there are more than 200 soccer programs. D1 mens soccer more or less non-existent around here

Q8 - Name one of Madonna's first ten songs to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 or Billboard Dance Songs charts, covering 1983 through 1986 (10)

INCORRECT (13)
Borderline - Rass, Shirley

With all apologies to the integrity of the game, one of the nice things about being out of it, especially on a question like this where I'd be guessing anyway (I can be very sure of some correct answers but don't know with 100% certainty), is that I can just pick my favorite song from among my guess pool and not be too worried about it.

[A_B]

OMG is pruitt taking the browns to the super bowl?!?!?!?

[HaulCitgo]

Not to muddy up the thread too much but with NIL paying for football scholarships can't these schools now add back all these mens scholarships? Title IX been a clusterfuck for mens nonrevenue sports.

Live to Tell is her best song and this isn't up for debate.

[A_B]

And it don't matter, but Deer and Moose are two wildly different animals in this context, right?

[L-Jam3]

We had this conversation offline after I locked in my answers, but can you tell me why you would've said no to Human? Or would you ask for a resubmission? Because there are about 30K homicides a year (not necessarily murders), and that would easily break the top ten.

Pedantically, yes, but practically no. Generally I don't think humans consider themselves animals because our brain was big enough to name them (non human animals). In our languages anyway.

Good game Syb.

No, I honestly don't think that's pedantry. If the question had said mammals... game on. Humans are not considered animals, by definition.

God. Stop being so pedantric.

[Jerloma]

Humans aren't considered animals? By who? Scientists? Mammals are animals!

Myth propagated by tax-exempt institutions that we have souls and therefore are different.

[Giff]

Fucking pedanterasses.

[Nonlinear FC]

Well, until dolphins or octopuses start typing on message boards... fuck those animals!

Dude, not all of us are fun guys.

TIL that a deer and a moose are the same animal.

The article I got that from listed deer but then said collisions with deer and moose in the description so I decided to allow both. One person did say moose.

We had this conversation offline after I locked in my answers, but can you tell me why you would've said no to Human?

I mean, come on. Because if you asked a million people to name their favorite animal, none of them would say "my mom". Maybe "your mom".

[Jerloma]

And the only reason that a mosquito directly injecting fatal parasites into someone isn't considered a deadly act is because that's more like involuntary manslaughter, just like a deer flying through your windshield after you hit it with your car.

The 20-QUESTION Swamper Bowl might kick off Monday, but it might not! If someone else wants to run a Pro Bowl next week instead, I wouldn't be against it. Just don't steal my slideshow question on the 5th largest cities of Oceania.
