There's the big payoff.

Guess I learned today that Jerry Sichting (1) joined the Celtics just after the 1985 finals and (2) is pronounced Cease-Sting and not Sitch-Ting. I guess I know him from basketball cards only.

Remember when Topps basketball cards were perforated, three player cards? It was like that into the early 80s at least, right?

Not that it matters , but shouldn’t those incorrect answers count 12, not 17?

Yeah, they did. I just didn't change the paste from previous question.

2023 Swampcrash Regular Season = My JV team season in '93
2023 Swampcrash Mother Humping Probowl = My sophomore team season in '93

Thanks, Jerloma. These were fun questions.

If I was trying harder this would have been pretty funny.

If there's issues with the spreadsheet I can send you one that I've tweaked that works pretty well

Great job JLo!

Am I the only Crasher to miss himself as a correct answer? I like to think I'll hold that honor for quite a while.

Brian also

He should be fine. I converted it to excel from Google sheet when I made a copy and it appears that broke all the maths.

Thanks for stepping in, Jerloma.

For the record I was pretty certain I was a correct answer but thought rballer was correct and would be guessed less. Think I overestimated my popularity.

Yeah, I kind of figured the same. It seemed a bit weird to choose myself.

mister d wrote: ↑Tue Feb 13, 2024 1:02 pm Yeah, I don't know any of these and its making me want to run a counter-game to make everyone feel good again.

On the one hand, the only thing I have left to do is create slideshows for the picture questions and I don't want Pruitt and Duff to sit too long. On the other hand, (same energy as my recent forays into teaching my oldest how to drive), let's see where this goes.

I would have bet money that Rballer would be the most guessed answer and I would have lost that money

Busy week. I am upgraded to "exclusively in a relationship"...a few things got missed - including your excellent set of questions...
