Oof. I got 9- all were in the first column except I got the last one (who had 0 but I thought they had him at one time)

13. I have no idea how I remembered Moses Moreno and Peter Tom Willis but couldn't remember Jim Miller and Shane Matthews.

I got 6, but couldn't spell the bust from UCLA's last name right

Thing needs some leeway in the name thing.

Miller

I'm fairly certain that's the steelers since I can remember. Maybe St Pierre buy I don't think so
Tomczack too

Still gotta be some shit bags like Malone and stout and Bono in there since Bradshaw
Some douche from the 83 draft as well

Got 17 as well. Hit most of the 80s and 2000s ones, missed several in the 90s (except the obvious ones)

I got 8, but didn't even put McMahon...I thought he died right immediately following the Super Bowl....

I got 9. But that site is addicting, I think I just spent about an hour and a half there.

A Bears QB game that does not include the great Bob Avellini !!!- missed it by a year.

Too bad they don't have one on Lions QB's since their last championship. :)

Here is another great one from there;

Can you name the quarterbacks taken in the first round of the NFL Draft since 1983? - sporcle (http://www.sporcle.com/games/1stroundqb.php)

55 out of 59. Missed on Stouffer, Long, Everett, and Blackledge. I knew Stouffer, Blackledge and Long were firsts, I can't believe I missed those...I guess the drafting teams messed me up on all but Blacky.

Wow I got 46 correct, ones I missed were all on the left column except Joey Harrington. Only good QB I missed was Testaverde. I missed all the busts.

36/59 - I couldn't for the life of me remember Ryan Leaf's name. I could describe him and picture him but could not think of his name at all. Also, spelling Roethlisberger (?) took me like a minute

Every San Diego fan wishes they could say the same.

I got 41, sucked on a lot of the 80s guys besides the '83 class. Got everyone on the right side except for Quinn.

Got 39/59 QB's (6/27 on the Bears, some of which was due to problems with spelling), but I drew some ridiculous blanks (couldn't think of any QB's betewen 2006-2009...guess I'm not a good test taker anymore). I got everyone from '95-'03 though.

Just took the "name the states" game on the same site. I was rather surprised to see that Minnesota was the most missed state (figured it would be a New England state). Was not surprised at all to see that only 46.5% could name them all.

I hope that's from people that can't spell, but I doubt it. One of the things we teach in 5th grade is all the states and capitals. My students, thankfully, score better than a 46! (for now)

I got 47 legit, couldn't spell mcnown, and knew which school druckenmiller played for, but couldn't remember his name.

Can't believe I missed Harbaugh, but got Druckenmiller. Missed Stouffer and Ramsey as well.

I only got 44 out of 50 States - could not for the life of me remember Utah, Tennessee, Wyoming, Kentucky, Vermont and Delaware. :eek:

After getting all 50 states, I decided to do the world one.

Can you name the Countries of the World? - sporcle (http://www.sporcle.com/games/world.php)

I got 114. If I'd cheated or had looked at a map just before, I'd have done better, of course. But I think those are fun when you just have to guess from scratch and don't help yourself with spelling or a quick primer.

Poli

91 on that one. I'd have had way less if I had not traveled as much as I have.

For an ego boost I did 'name the NFL teams' in 90 seconds. Apparently the most missed team (still coming in at 75%) is Kansas City.

Got 121 on the world countries. Knew more of the African ones than I thought.

I have totally wasted about 3 hours on this site so great linky.

My favorite was the Boy Scout Merit Badge one.

I only got 89 countries. Didn't look up spelling like I would have if it were people. If it's people I consider me knowing the name as good enough and will google my best guess at spelling and that will get me the right spelling.

9 for the Bears, many of whom I'd never heard of.

52 on the first round QBs which was better than 96% of the population.

Abe Sargent
04-30-2009, 09:23 PM
169 countries and I forgot about 12 I knew. Hell, I forgot Denmark, Micronesia, Ethiopia, Laos and some other basics. Ah well.

Poli
04-30-2009, 10:15 PM
Micronesia? That's a country?

I got 162 of the countries, but forgot some blatantly obvious ones (e.g. Ireland, South Africa) because it's late, the countries were getting covered up, and I was spending a fair amount of time trying to get the obscure ones, so I ran out of time before getting more in.

I thought the 100 most common words in the English language one was pretty good (and quite a bit harder than I expected).

Wow. How pathetic we are. What's so hard about remembering all of the states? really?

Yeah, that one was interesting. I did rather poorly. I actually started reading labels I had around my desk, hoping to get some more of them. It actually worked a bit.


I got 124/195 on the countries. This is largely thanks to the Onion's atlas. I've been reading that nonstop on the shitter, and I thought of jokes that I read, and they jogged my memory very well. Without that, I would have well south of 100.
