    ok so here's what this is all about.

    my trivia question today was as follows:

    which jaguars player was one of five finalists for diet pepsi nfl rookie of the year 2007:

    john broussard
    MJD
    derek landri
    byron leftwich

    its a misleading question. sbr says that the answer is MJD. but MJD was in the top 5 ROY in 2006, not 2007.


    here's the exchange between lou and i:

    MJD is the answer but he was in it for the "2006 season". if you google the way its worded you will find this:

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...-year-nominees
    and wouldn'tcha know it that the following years the regular season starts and finishes in the same calendar year:


    2000
    2002
    2003
    2006
    2007--year in question
    2008

    and it even has it on the nfl.com website

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...-year-nominees

    i know lou and them make the rules, but this thread was to show that it was in fact not implied as 10 other people have said that AP won the ROY in 2007.....of which MJD was not in the top 5

    took longer then i thought to move it

    lou, im still looking for an explanation since it clearly wasn't implied and i've shown you 6 years where the season starts and ends in the same calendar year. and the year in question is one of them.

    Black,

    We're never crediting you for that Q. You misunderstood it.

    so Lou how did he misunderstand the question?
