Now, even though I've never really stopped following baseball, and know my Red Sox pretty well, I'd find it difficult to name maybe - 20 other players in all of baseball? And most of those only because they used to play for the Red Sox. I guess my brain has other things to concern itself with now.

And I don't even understand how I was so knowledgeable in '86. I watched games on weekends, and This Week in Baseball, and I probably read Peter Gammons' columns in the Boston Globe. Maybe it was the baseball cards.

Play DFS, you will know the most obscure players.
