Dammit, I just read the #10 goal on the SI 10 most historically significant US Soccer goals list. Said it right there, FFS. Too bad Benny Feilhaber never panned out. I loved the guy, and he was a Jew not named Bornstein!

He must mean singles. I looked it up and smacked myself for not getting it.

The rule of thumb with sports is always... If in doubt, pick the Germans. Therefore, I am going with Steffi Graf

Detroit, MI became the largest US city to file for Chapter 9 bankruptcy protection in whatever year it was that Detroit filed for bankruptcy protection.

Which US city had been the largest to file prior to Detroit's filing?

I think I was playing a Sporcle game within the last month or so about overseas born NBA players, and 'Nique popped up. I knew it was France, but guessed on Paris. I'll take the star, keep the dick for yourself.

Thanks!

Also just saw that he was drafted by Utah. I had no idea.

DC47 · Post by **DC47** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 7:06 pm

They saw the name, and the birthplace, and just assumed D. Wilkins was white. Kind of like the time they drafted Karl Malone after assuming he was Irish. I presume heads rolled in SLC.
