Stupid Game

[Guest Edgy DC]

"You'd name a child 'Brown'? What kind of monster are you?"

[G-Fafif]

One of Hank Webb's middle names is Gaylon.

Springsteen wrote a song called Bobby Jean.

Howard Johnson, Rick Reed and Kevin Brown have more or maybe comparatively famous doppelgangers, namewise.

Coleman is the name of a popular cooler. And the butler from "Trading Places".

Kevin Collins was traded for a World Series MVP.

Chris Chambliss didn't do much as a hitting coach.

And I don't recognize the guy in the Rice uniform.

The thread that connects them does not make itself apparent to me.

[nymr83]

i dont know the guy in the Rice uniform or the guy taking a bong hit.

[G-Fafif]

Grant Roberts (bong hit guy) had 1 start in 2000.

Rick Reed started the 1 game the Mets won in the 2000 World Series.

Manny Alexander made 1 huge mistake in whom he attempted to follow as an Oriole.

Roger Craig taught Mike Scott 1 valuable thing to do with sandpaper.

Gary Bennett played 1 game as a Met.

Vince Coleman was Public Enemy No. 1.

Dale Murray maybe had 1 good outing.

Kevin Collins was traded for 1 World Series MVP.

I am groping for 1 thing they all had in common...

[G-Fafif]

The Rice guy is Wayne Graham, 1 realizes...

[G-Fafif]

Ken Sanders was hit by a throw back from the catcher.

Vince Coleman was eaten by a tarp roller.

Howard Johnson was accused of corking his bat.

Rick Reed was needlessly ostracized as a replacement player.

Manny Alexander was needlessly ostracized for replacing Ripken.

I liked to refer to Dale Murray as The Master of Disaster in his non-prime.

Kevin Collins could have been given a newer jersey for his 1969 Topps card.

Grant Roberts trusted the wrong people.

I'm still waiting for Hank Webb to break through. And his middle name still involves Gaylon.

[Valadius]

I actually know somebody named Brown. And he's insane.

[Valadius]

HA!!! Just got it. Wow.

They all share the last names of current U.S. Senators.

[Zvon]

LMAO.

Excellent work. Your floor.

[G-Fafif]

Pret-ty good.

Pret-ty, pret-ty good.

[nymr83]

lets get this going

[stevejrogers]

Here's one

[Valadius]

Dude, it was my turn. I'm still coming up with one.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Steve and tide wait for no man.

[stevejrogers]

Which is why I threw up an easy one in the meantime

[nymr83]

]Here's one

all 3 of them once batted out of turn? oh wait...

[Guest Edgy DC]

I don't know who the first guy is. Mark Little? Jeff McKnight? The limited color palette giving him a radioactive sunbirn doesn't help.

[Centerfield]

It's 1985 World Series MVP Bret Saberhagen.

Followed by the MVP's for the 1986 and 1987 World Series.

It's still Val's turn.

All right, here we go:

[Guest SI Metman]

Took me a few minutes, but I probably should have concentrated harder on what was on my television.

All played for both Colorado and Boston.

[Valadius]

[Centerfield]

[seawolf17]

I know it, but I don't want to guess it, because I don't want to have to come up with one of these. Nice work.

[HahnSolo]
