Just make this a Sporcle thread BTW

Gotta be a Baseball dork, but on Sporcle, I love the "lineups" quizzes..Opening Day lineups for every team since 1991. 

 

Fun stuff.

Orioles 1991-2014

With 10 min winding down I barely tried the NHL guys. Just threw out obvious names real quickly and only got like 10 of them. Of baseball, football, and MLB I only missed Rickey Henderson, Larry Walker, Vlad, and Posey. Fell like I eventually would have got them but ran out of time.


Went back and spent all 10 min just on NHL guys and was pleasantly surprised that I only missed 2 of 25. Never would have got Henrik Sedin or Correy Perry.

Mo Vaughn was the last baseball one I got.

Juan Gonzalez was my AL, Buster Posey was my NL.

Only got about 60% overall, but I guess that's not terrible for not paying much attention to sports over the last decade, save the Orioles and a couple odds and ends. Got more NFL and NBA than anything else.

He memorized the seeds..

 

And still remembers. 

 

Sick fuck. I'm telling you.

I didn't realize you were raising Rain Man.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Although I memorized every president in order in 8th grade. My social studies teacher had them on the wall.

[SBTarheel]

I didn't realize you were raising Rain Man.

My wife literally said those exact words. 

 

He missed one of the 7-10 matchups completely, BYU/Oregon, and a few of the lower seeds. 

 

Remembered Cal Poly played Texas Southern. 

 

WHAT???

[Pedro Cerrano]

I can safely say I didn't get either Cal Poly or Texas Southern. I put in every major conference team and then a few of the mid majors I knew off-hand (Mercer, lolz) and that was it for me.

He said the team, and I typed it in..He went perfect with the seeds, in order until that BYU/Oregon game..

 

Not 1-16, he would do all the #1s, all the 2s....etc. 

[Pedro Cerrano]

How long until he's getting yelled at by Weber on BSL? 5 years?

I'll let him sign up if he wants when he's 13 or 14...

 

He knows about this stuff, he always hears me making comments when I think a post is absurd and what not.

Hope he was wearing headphones the night Nickle called you an ACC snob.

He'll always remember the night he learned a TON of synonyms for....never mind.
