I didn’t even think about Fletch. I would only have been upset if my choice was wrong but Tenenbaums was right.

The "Royal Tennebaums" should have been included as a "tennis-adjacent" movie.

Vegas, Baby! Possibly a record to gain 5 points on the field on one question?

Given the narrative I provided (and the pun!), I feel like you've let me get away with worse.

Some great games happening here

Is Razz poker when you restart a game everyone else had forgotten about five years earlier?

Like button.

Damn you all who said Valpo! They were our arch-rivals and I went to most games the year Drew hit the 3 pointers. His father Homer was the coach. The student section was right behind the bench and we taunted him the entire game. After the game he walked over to the student section and thanked us for being great fans. Only answer I had. Now on the others, I could name 3 or 4 and still manage to pick the most popular each time. Although I couldn't think of the name of 7 Days in Hell. Wracked my brain for days, couldn't think of the name.

I think that Bryce Drew shot is by far the most famous shot on that list, so I figured a lot of people would have that one. I just have to thank Ryan for including a kid who transferred from UVA. I would have been shocked if anyone else got Northern Iowa.

Hell, I wouldn’t have thought Jean Segura would be a correct answer here.

One of those weeks. I knew I went quick, but this is embarrassing.

lol

I hate this game! 6 out of 7 high scores, and the other answer was 1 off the high score. Altuve I get, because that is the only name I know, I just hoped there was more of you that could name a second, lesser known player. But Oceania cities? I had all the answered ones on my list and choose the high score. I need to stop over thinking and go with the first thing that pops into my head.

Thanks - Jerloma and Mister D said Kyle Tucker for 2 points

Oh shit, I think I won it on a hockey question!

I will have standings for you later this afternoon. See you Monday pu'uers

I think "Hawaiian" as a language is the first time this season I was afraid I was giving a very dumb answer.

Damn, Rush is usually a Swampcrash all-pro, so I guess I got a lucky week to play him.

I somewhat followed 'Cuse basketball in that era, but I'm not remembering Dehere at all. I see he was Big East Player of the Year in 1993, but I probably stopped watching college basketball in 91. Were you thinking I'd know him because I live 20 minutes away from his school 30 years after his moment of glory?

Shirley wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2023 11:22 am I'd love to know how many of you actually knew you got the language right. And how.

For the ref, the only one I knew I knew was Lane, but it took me three days of digging through the cobwebs to bring it up. I kept picturing him in claymation screaming "let's get it on!"

I didn’t “know” but I felt pretty confident. Turkish words tend to have similar structure. Ironically, I was almost as confident in “bazina” being Czech but felt Turkish was safer since bazina could have been Slovak

Were you confusing Sybian with me?

how the hell was Jeremy Pena a 1-point answer

Turkish customers and spending extended time in Istanbul. I work for a Swedish company and knew that one as well...didn't answer because I thought it would be more popular. Swampcrash logic fails again.

The Sybian wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2023 11:18 am Glad we didn't have to match the word to the language. I saw "trask" and thought it sounded German. Boglach makes a ton of sense now that I see it.

I thought trask sounded IKEA as shit and was going to be like a 10 point answer.
