I lost by 25 to a guy who hasn't watched sports in 25 years.

Thanks, Ryan, and good game Bengal!

Only one I've actually been to. I think being the first slide killed it.

Noice score for me, but duff seemed feisty this week so I should have known I was in trouble.

Thanks turd

I was confident that was going to be a 10+ answer, but it's the only one I knew for sure. I just hoped the rest of you had better memories than me.

From my answer notes to Ryan: "I imagine I'd only get angry thinking about what they put in there so I'll play it safe and say fettuccine."

Nailed that one.

I really should know every one of those Gator answers, but Kevin was all I had. My other options were Jalen Carter and Nakobe Dean. Looks like I picked the right one.

I still watch NFL and EPL games! I've heard people saying the Knicks suck for well the last 20 years, so figured that was safe. Golf I had 3 answers before looking at the pics, and after looking I had the same 3, with a 50% confidence in which picture was St. Andrews, and no idea about the other two. In past years when Ryan kept stats for sports vs non-sports, I was usually in the top 5-10 for non sports, bottom 5 for sports. I was just lucky this week asked for older sports answers.

Thanks for the leniency on Shrek. I checked a couple answers, and saw Shrek was way beyond the most recent, hoped you'd give credit for Puss N Boots as a spinoff. And I was so proud of myself for coming up with Warren Sapp, only to see he didn't go to Florida or get drafter early enough.

Same. If TPC River Highlands had a landmark of any kind other than Bruce Lietzke's 16-bit leaderboard face, I would have included that one too.

Fettucine Alfredo doesn't usually include garlic. From Serious Eats, the ingredients are:

10 ounces of dried egg fettuccine
3/4 cup heavy cream
3 ounces butter
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
Salt and pepper

Posted: **Fri Sep 22, 2023 3:50 pm**

I never cared much for Alfredo sauce, anyway, so I’m somewhat unfamiliar with its ingredients, but I thought everything Italian had garlic. (Also surprised not to see any cheese in that recipe). Learn something new every day!

I think the Pistons might literally have ZERO wins since 2010.

Posted: **Fri Sep 22, 2023 5:19 pm**

Also I missed a minus 1 (not that I’m complaining) because I couldn’t identify a golf course five miles from my house.

When you run the query on Stathead for playoff wins by team, you get 29 results. Can't even register.

10,000 Maniacs was probably the best Unplugged—just a masterclass—but a little too indie to be on a list like that.

I feel like I saw their Unplugged video for “Because the Night” around 10,000 times during my college years.

I picked the popular answer over the course I've played that no one else picked and it cost me the game lol

The best way to play seems to be knowing one or two answers. I knew two potential answers for the first question. Last week I knew one or two for pretty much every question and I had a great week.

Lack of depth has definitely helped me in the past.

I knew that response would set Rush off and choose to believe that’s the reason BSF did it.

I do not watch college football. That was just a flat guess and hope.

I'm so bad at this game.
