    I figured Terrell Davis would be in there. No such luck. Still, 13 out of 20 isn't too bad.

      would have been if he didn't have that knee injury.
    • 11/20... not good

    • Penalized because I spelled Ladainian wrong? Are you kidding me?

    I got a 100 percent and had 2:30 to spare. Stupid fast. Very nice work on the quizzes though. This should be really fun.

    In my world, I've blocked out Jerome Bettis from ever existing.

      I'm heading out on vacation and I have to say of the few people i'll miss one is Harvey Bars.

        We can set up a system where I can periodically text you smart allecky sports commentary every few hours or so if you'd like. Maybe even the occasional photoshop as well.

          Um, could you CC me on those messages? Or maybe we could just add Harvey Bars to the athlete notifications, so I can be notified anytime, day or night, when you post? That would bring so much joy to my sad, pathetic life.

          teehee

          Make this s*** happen. I've been asking for a 'Verified Athlete' tag from YB for a long time now and I keep getting the same 'JV high school basketball does not count" replies back from the suits.
          I also can still ollie like 12 inches off the ground on a skateboard as long as its not in any kind of motion whatsoever. I'd like to see Frank Shamrock pull that off.
  • Placard_complete_small
    D@mn, I sucked, I only had 11 out of 20. My mind went blank for awhile.
  • i thought eddie george would be on that list.
  • Dewey
    Placard_complete_small

  • squish059
    Placard_complete_small
    i got 100 but fred taylor was a shot in the dark. tiki and john riggins are also easy to forget.
  • eagles4ever05
    Dang I got 7 out of 20 man I forgot everyone
  • SnitchinBubs
    Placard_complete_small
    16/20 - couldnt spell LDT, and should be shot for inserting 5 other Giants and NOT Tiki Barber!
    • squish059
      Placard_complete_small
      yeah LT isnt as easy to spell 4 damn sure.... i suppose that why he is LT.
      and edgerrin james(is this spelled right?) is no treat either
  • HikeNotreDame

  • gobirdsPHILLY
    Placard_complete_small
    13...eh
  • RAVENOUS52
    I obviously spelled LT's name wrong and how in the Hell did I spell Thurman Thomas wrong?!!

    13 + 2 out of 20... Arghh!
  • dfurones
    Missed 1... Franco Harris ...ahhhhhh
  • Douglas_Report
    wow, RIckey Watters was the only one I missed..........and I misspelled LT and the Edge a couple of times before I figured it out
  • lazcab
    100% with only three seconds left on the clock...lol
  • 16/20. But I missd #7 and 15. No excuse for that.
  • jaymz77
    Placard_complete_small
    16 (80%) I missed 13,16,17,19 - I forgot O.J.........man I didn't think Edge was there yet, or Taylor. I could see LT.

    I loved Rickey Running Watters when he was a 49er!


  • the thing isnt taking any answers and yes i have them spelled right
  • bigpud
    i suck at spelling
  • diehardeagle96
    16/20 not bad for a 12 year old
  • RIPST21
    Totally forgot my man Riggo. And I knew it was somebody else from Dallas but didn't think of Dorsett. I can take 14. I didn't know Tiki snuck up in there. I was proud for remembering Ricky Waters, he was very underrated.
  • ballhawk
    14 of 20, not bad. I'm not as good as I thought I was though.
  • thekid82
    the only one i got wrong was tiki...but he is a quitter anyway, take him off
  • _iB4e_
    this is a good quis, but having to enter first names kinda sucks. It took me forever to get LDT's name right
  • i got 2 out of 20 hahaa
  • crazyphillyfan
    Placard_complete_small
    19/20 forgot allen
  • 14/20 not too shabby
  • this quiz if fake.
  • chiefblood
    awesome quiz!
  • i did well just spelled names wrong
  • i would have had more if i didnt spell so many names wrong
  • CItalia
    I agree with you philly fan this quiz is anal about speling. They want the first name too and you need to know there are two "Ts" in Ricky Watters. Argh. I would have had 100 percent if it wasnt for that and spending 30 seconds on spelling ladainian right. 19 OUT OF 20 for me.
