Eagles - well, chip kelly sorts that out

Titans - had to be a shitty team that couldn't score and kept turning over. Almost went Bucs here.

I googled the only person in both Hall of Fames cause it was really bothering me that I didn't know it.

It turns out that I used to know it but forgot ... not a household name, NFL Hall of Famer who made baseball Hall of Fame as an umpire.

Here is some Trivia for you. See how you can do:

 

Since nearly every answer has been given except for some very tough ones...I will go ahead and supply the answers now:

 

1. Who is the ONLY person to have been inducted into both the Baseball Hall of Fame and the Pro Football Hall of Fame?

Cal Hubbard....in the PFHOF as a player.....and in the Baseball HOF as an....umpire!

 

 

2. Name this player: Played 641 games for 4 MLB teams. Played 188 games for 4 NFL teams.

Neon Deion Sanders.

 

 

3. Two of the original founders of the National Football League played Major League Baseball. Who?

I assumed that everyone was familiar with Jim Thorpe who played for several teams as a MLB player......but not so much George Halas who played for the NY Giants baseball team.

 

 

4. Two Heisman Trophy winners played in both the NFL and MLB. Name them.

Bo Jackson, and Vic Janowisc (1950 Heisman winner from OSU)

 

 

5. Name those Head coaches who lost 4 Super Bowls.

Don Shula, Marv Levy, Dan Reeves, Bud Grant. Shula and Reeves lost SBs with 2 different teams. (yes, Shula was Colts HC in SBIII lost to Jets)

 

 

6. Name those Head Coaches who are in the PFHOF as players who also were HCs in the Super Bowl Game.

Ditka...HOF as a Bear/HC with Bears, Ray Berry HOF as a Colt/HC with Pats, Forrest Gregg HOF with Packers/HC with Bengals.

 

 

7. Six different Stadiums have hosted the Super Bowl three or more times. Name them.

The Orange Bowl. The Rose Bowl. The Superdome. Tulane Stadium. Joe Robbie etc. Stadium. Jack Murphy etc. Stadium.

No other stadium is scheduled to host for a third time.....Reliant Stad. in Houston is scheduled for second, Levi Stadium in NoCal, and the new Vikings stadium. I suspect that the Big Toaster.....in Glendale AZ will soon get another....making 3 for it.

 

 

8. The AFL played 6 Championship Games between 1960-1965 before the merger and the institution of the Super Bowl game in 1966. There were 4 winning QBs of these 6 AFL champions. Name them.

George Blanda won 2 with the Oilers. Jack Kemp won 2 with the Bills. Len Dawson won one with the Dallas Texans (and later won SB with Chiefs)

The last one is Tobin Rote. Starting QB for the 1963 San Diego Chargers AFL Champs. Many think Hadl would have been the starting QB (as did I before looking it up some time ago). But no. In fact....Tobin Rote is the only man to win Championships with two different teams. He won a Title as the starting QB for the Lions in the 50s. Again, he is overlooked because many think that Bobby Layne was the QB for the 3 Lions titles in the 50s...but no, he only started 2 of those. Rote started the other.

 

 

9.A. Since 1960 to current and including both AFL and AFC title games....which team lost the most of the league/conf. title games?

The Raiders have lost 9. The Chargers 8, Steelers 7.

 

B. Which teams have never lost an AFL/AFC title game?

Bengals are 2-0. Texans are 0-0 In fact, the DATs are the only team to never reach a conf. title game.

 

 

10. A. Since 1970, which team has lost the most NFC conference title games?

the 49ers lost 9

 

B. Which 3 teams current NFC teams have never lost an NFC conference title game?

Giants are 5-0. Seahawks are 3-0. Cardinals are 1-0.

 

 

11. There were 15 franchises in the original 1920 AFPA now NFL. Only two of those teams still exist: The Bears and the Cardinals. Of the other 13, 12 of them went defunct in the 1920s. Name the one original NFL team that survived the 1920s, but went defunct some years later.

The Dayton Triangles. They were the Dayton Triangles until 1930....then moved to become the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Brooklyn Tigers in the 30-s to early 40s. They merged with the Boston Yanks in 1945 season....then the whole thing went belly up after 1945 season.

 

 

12. A. Which team in 2014 had the most plays run against its defense?

The Cleveland Browns

 

B. Which team in 2014 had the fewest plays run against its defense?

The Seattle Seahawks

 

C. Which team in 2014 ran the most plays on offense?

The Fucking Eagles

 

D. Which team in 2014 ran the fewest plays on offense?

The Tennessee Titans

 

Hint: the above answers are 4 different teams.
