The Rules

The rules are the same as all FOFC "I’m With Stupid" Contests.

The object of this contest is to answer the questions posted, and to provide the most common answer among those submitted. For each question, your score will be equal to the number of people who submitted that response. Your score for the contest will be the product of your individual question scores. Highest score wins.

No collaborating in any way. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants.

All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this puzzle, i.e. the person posting the questions unless otherwise noted. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing.

Any references that are unclear to you, due to language or geography, should be understood to be authored from the perspective of an English-speaking American. However...

Your answers do not necessarily have to be correct in order to score points. If I ask "name a color of the rainbow," and you and four other people responded "black" - you get five points, period, even if it is not technically a correct answer to the question.

Please submit entries via PM no later than Wednesday, Jan. 14, 9 P.M. EST.

Thanks, and good luck.

Feh, too much research, only been a football fan for 7 years now - too short a time to know RBs from the USFL, coaching staffs from the 70s and 80s, names for classic defensive units, etc. If it were one question, I'd deal with it and answer the rest, but too many.

[Leonidas]

I think it's a really good set of questions. Will be interesting to see the results because I think the questions were worded with a definite leaning towards getting obvious answers from the 70's-80's, but I suspect many playing won't know those bits of trivia for us older folks to match with. Consequently I suspect I'll be back to 1% or less.
