3 for 3.   

Still waiting for Jack Morris to get into the MLB hall of fame. He may not have won 300 games, but he was the best and most winningest pitcher in the 1980s. Played on 4 world series teams. Pitched one of the greatest games I've seen (game 7, 1991 WS)

That's interesting I know of Jack but never really followed his career that closely.

Easy? If it hadn't been for the soccer and tennis players I would've recognized nobody!


Limit increased to 4.


So I still have a shot at #1... and I'm never too sure about those Brazilians.  :-\\ I keep thinking his name is Zico, but I could be wrong.

Comparing it to recent quizzes (Henk's music quiz's and whistledog's lyrics quiz, both which lasted for a few weeks), mine has been on 24 hours and almost all of them have been solved by the people at inthe00s.

Yeah I raised it on Thursday. I figured you knew that one, and not the hockey ones.  I'll try another quiz next week.
