How many pro sports teams can you get in 10 minutes?

[Exile on Waveland]

Finally bored enough at work to do this (also because I knew it wouldn't be much of a challenge for me). Got all 122 teams, all BCS teams, all nicknames, all 13 cities with all four sports . . . going to try athlete nicknames now -- won't do near as well there.

 

Edit: Missed six golf, five boxing (don't follow either), two hockey, and one football nickname.

 

Edit redux: Got 119/120 on BCS nicknames, because I had no idea that Arkansas State was no longer the Indians. I typed "Indians" probably ten times, because I knew it was correct. Oh well. Just saw Andy's post about the same thing too.

Ack. I'm still annoyed about that. I knew it was Red something too, but I couldn't remember what followed it.

Fantastic. I got 49 out of 84, this one's tough.

 

Athlete nicknames

 

54 on that one. Got all of them but Honus Wagner on baseball, did decent on basketball/football but botched boxing and golf for the most part

 

Got the same score. I missed 4 or 5 on baseball, two or three on basketball, none on football, half on golf, half on hockey and 2/3's of boxing.

BCS Schools: 68/73, all of them missed were in the Big East, named 11 which is how big a conference should be anyways :)

BCS Nicknames: 69/73, missed three Big East and one SEC

I got 4...err, 21.

 

 

I missed Barry and Thompson.

 

I missed Barry too, got all the others. Thompson I only remember because he and Robinson are the only guys to win scoring titles on the last days of the season.

This site is such a great idea to pass away the boring times at work.

 

Here's another good one: 100 greatest movie characters

I got 50/100.

 

65/100, though I knew about 8-10 more but couldn't think of them.

 

I'd say at least 40 are just the title of the film

Yeah, I was chuckling as they basically handed a number of them away.
