Here's a question: Which Phillies Pitcher led the Major Leagues with 90 appearances in 1987 at age 40? Hint: He's more associated with the other Pennsylvania team

"Sweetness" is correct. You are up.


Thanks dtodd. It was between " Sweetness" and Emmett Smith but for some reason I remember seeing both T.D. passes on a feature about him . One of my all time not only football players but athletes ever. Give me a minute or so to come up with a question. OFC

Working off the last list, I will say 5 ?


Not five. I did google it and went to the list of national championships in baseball. I found two different numbers of teams listed. I verified the yeam that was in question in one answer. The answer is no where near double figures . OFC

I'm only certain of Florida. Luke Maye's brother, Cole, won a title there. I'll guess THREE. Perhaps UCLA and maybe Ohio State or Stanford

Well Michigan has and I'm almost positive Stanford has. With Florida being mentioned, I will now say 3.

We'll ask a golf question. What brand of irons did Phil Mickelson use to win his first masters? I still hit those today.

Phil used to be a Yonex man. So I'll say YONEX. I'm left handed. I bought a set of yonex on the cheap at Myrtle Beach. They looked good and the ball jumped off the face, but they were not forgiving

I think it was his first Masters win when he hit the 6 iron from 213 yards on the 13th hole I believe. He had a pretty safe lead. I yelled at the TV for him to chip back to the fairway

He used Yonex when he first came out on tour but not in the masters.

The 6 iron from the pine straw was unbelievable. It is hard to control the ball out of it and he hit it perfect.

There aren't too many possibilities. I was disappointed when Phil switched from sweet Titleist blades to Callaway. I guess he got rid of yonex earlier in his career than I realized. New answer is TITLEIST. I wanted a set, but the used sets never became cheap

I actually thought Cal was one but 4 was just a guess

You are right. Cal has won it twice. I don't get it I googled teams NCAA D1 teams that has won all 3 and the four I posted were the only ones. Then I just googled NCAA W.S. champions and it list Cal. twice. Beats me. Google contridicted itself. Oh well . OFC

The Titleist 731PM is correct. I have been playing those for the last 10 years. Phil help design those and they only made them one year I think. You are up.

Ok. I heard this on PTI with Tony Kornheiser last week. Which retired NBA player has two sons playing hockey in the NHL?

Popeye Jones is correct!! I didn't know his real name is Ronald until today when I googled for this question. His sons Seth and Caleb are in the NHL. Seth is a star. When Popeye Jones was with the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche star, Joe Sakic, helped the boys get started in hockey
