Walker Smith Jr. was better known as Sugar Ray Robinson. I only know this because my dad told me about a thousand times how rough it was to supervise construction worker Jake LaMotta in Newark NJ in the early 60s.
Correct. The greatest pound for pound fighter of all time. Beat the snot out of LaMotta 4 out of 5. St. Valentine's Day Massacre BEATDOWN.

You are up.

I hope that this one is correct. I heard it on the radio. Three left handed QBs have started the Super Bowl. Kenny Stabler and Steve Young won the Super Bowl. Who is the third left-handed quarterback who lost the Super Bowl?

There was a decent detective drama in the late 1980's called Hunter. What former NFL lineman starred in it?

Back in the day when they had tie ups in college basketball they had a tip off. One of the most famous tip offs ever occured in 1972 between the Carolina Gamecocks and the unc cheater u. 6'3" shooting guard Kevin Joyce of Carolina out jumped a 6'10" center from the cheating heels an tapped the ball to team mate Tom Owens who did a layup with seconds to go in a come from behind win for the Carolina Games over cheater u. The question is who was that high flying heel ? OFC

Lee Dedmon. It was the 1971 ACC Tournament Final. In 1972, UNC went to the Final Four, mostly because of Bob McAdoo. Bobby Jones was a Sophomore on the '72 team

It was lee dedmon and thanks for the correction on the year. You are one of the best trivia players here and you are up sir. OFC

Very good. Tennis legends Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi are married to each other. They both won the Career Grand Slam and Olympic Gold Medals. Within one either way, how many Australian Opens did they win combined?

Winner! hart2 chesson is up. They both won 4. Agassi would get in terrific shape in December and wear down his opponents in the Australian heat. He won 8 total Grand Slam tournaments. Graf won at least four times at every major. She won 22 individual majors. If you are looking for a great book, I suggest agassi's memoir, "OPEN"

Tom Seaver got robbed imo.

Seaver went 7-1 each half season fir a total of 14-2.

Voters got caught up in the mania. Fernando went maybe 13-7.

There are 75 schools among the Power 6 in college basketball. Who is the only power school that has never won a conference title or division title in the regular season?

And FTR, they don't have to had won a conference/division title in their current conference (i.e. Louisville has won titles in the Big East, but not the ACC).

Perfect question, skysdad! My dad looked really youthful twice in my life. When Fernando Valenzuela burst on the scene and 1975 when FRED LYNN did everything right. Particularly his grace in Center Field
