No it doesn't... the quiz asks some Browns questions... Besides, stop being such a whiner.

Me think thou doth protest too much. (It is more of an admission of inadequacy on your part than an indictment of the quiz)

 

Also, as one named Brendan O'Duibhir I don't think I need a lecture on what is good for Ireland.

LeBrent has one fully correct answer, and partially correct answers on several others.

But note: the source I referenced has Tim Duncan as being from the USA. They must consider him an American as the U.S. Virgin Islands are US territory. Duncan did play for the US in the Olympics. Perhaps he falls into a somewhat special category.
