    Who comes up with these trivia questions?

    The TEN POINT question:

    Who hit a grand slam in 2005, but his team still lost to the Red Sox?

    Are you kidding me? Why not ask who ran a punt back against the Steelers, but his team still lost?

    It is not always about knowing the answer. Those type of obscure 10 point questions are usually set up to easily play process of elimination to come up with the answer, or at least narrow it down to two. How many of the options were National league players?

    I had a similar ****** up Q today:

    Who was on deck when Mokkie Wilson hit a game winning hit in game 6 of the World Series in 1986...
    a)Howard Johnson
    b)Darryl Strawberry
    c)Gary Carter
    d)Kevin Mitchell

    Are you Faking serious? How are you gonna eliminate that? They are all Mets...Played all at that time....
    Who da fak cares who was on deck, who was in the dugout scratching his left nut?

    Is this it?

    • The good news for the Tigers Aug. 16 was that Craig Monroe hit a 10th-inning grand slam against the Red Sox. The bad news was, the Tigers still lost -- by three runs (thanks to those seven runs they gave up in the top of the 10th).

    Trivia is very hard for me since I don't much like sports other than baseball and Jai alai.

    My 10pt was what is the player called that throws a baseball to the batter?

    50pt was obscure as shit though. What team beat the 76ers in game 7 to go to their first Eastern Conference Final?

    My 10 pointer was easy ass one it was about what is it called when people are on 1st 2nd and third. easy one right bases loaded.
    then it asked me, what was the completions record in 2006 in NCCA. 111 222 333 or 444. I guessed 333. But it was 444. //////
    That is an awfully hard 50 pointer. There is no way you can even google that in time at all to even get a clue to narrow any out.
