Around SBN: Newcastle Battle Injury Woes Ahead of Tottenham

Week 13 Trivia (ANSWER)


Dear POD'ers:

This week all the talk has been focused on Staff's injury and whether or not to shelf him for a game, 2 games, rest of the season or play him despite his injured shoulder.  That got me to thinking about memorable Lions injuries.  We cannot forget Reggie or Utley for sure or the fact that Charlie Batch ALWAYS seemed to be playing hurt.  I remember Mike Cofer playing with a cast on his hand.  The injury I remember most (on Thanksgiving I think) was when Barry injured his leg.  

 

ANSWER:  Of course Barry had 1,000 yards, in fact he had over 1,100 yards when he was injured in 1993.

Poll
QUESTION: When Barry missed the last 5 games of the regular season (I think it was 1992 or 1993) did he still finish the year over 1,000 yards?
Yes - he's Barry
39 votes
No - not even Barry was that good

Easy one!

Here’s a harder one: Who would win in a fight between Barry Sanders, Ditka, and God…(apologies to that old SNL skit!)

I’m thinking Barry because he could hit one, and run like The Flash and hit the other before they knew it was coming…

Just livin' the dream...

Baseball died in 1994.

Apparently you never got the message. Please refrain from any future baseball posts on this site.

Here's my trivia question

who is the only player in MLB history to have 500 or more hits with 4 different clubs?

by rbanner on Dec 11, 2009 5:45 PM EST reply actions  

Hmmmm

My guess is Rusty Staub, with the Mets, Expos, Tigers and Astros.

KDawg

with the deuce. Although for a time, Le Grande Orange’s Houston team was known as the Colt .45s.
