Amfoot Trivia Question 0171
FiedlersFizzle Posted Sep 23, 2003
Oh, and BBS, Tim Brown won his Heisman in 1987... 1988 was his rookie year with the Raiders...
Shame on you...
Amfoot Trivia Question 0171
JD Posted Sep 23, 2003
You'd figure that I, being the huge college football fan that I am, would eat this question alive. 
Anyway, my office mate reminded me this morning that Chris Weinke (I think that's how his name is spelled) has won one and he's a QB for the Panthers. After racking my brains this morning, I have remembered that QBs Ty Detmer (I've heard his name somewhere, so I know he's still playing - don't ask me where) and Danny Weurffel (however you spell his last name, I think he's with the Packers?) have also won the trophy.
So, what's that bring us up to now? (by FF's reckoning, which I'll trust ) Do we still need a RB besides Ricky Williams? I can't think of anyone else still active in RB position that was stellar enough to get the highest college football player's honor.

Eddie George
Tim Brown
Charles Woodson
Hows that?

Vinny T
Doug Flutie
Ron Dayne
Ricky Williams
Eddie George
Tim Brown
Charles Woodson

As for not know Timmy Brown, won his Heisman in '87; it's more a case of the bloody thing being awarded in December rather than after the season ends which pushes it back into the previous year.

Well, thats fine except we were asked to name Nine, and if there are ten then I call for a foul quaestion... Makes a change for me to be able to say it about somebody elses...

Though you are of course right, and Vinny and Doug go in and Crouch goes out.

Friar Posted Sep 23, 2003
OK well, drat, it IS a fouled question. I thought Flutie had retired, but i see that he is still playing for San Diego.
MY, incorrect, list was:
Vinny
Detmer
Weinke
Palmer
George
Williams
Dayne
Brown
Woodson
But, of course, Flutie makes TEN.
Crud. Sorry all.
Shall I pose another question. One with a definate answer. . .
RIGHT NOW, who leads the NFL in scoring?
Friar
ps. You may whip me with touchdown towels now. . .

JD's thoughts after reading this last question: "Yeeeeehaaa! I know this one! Oh! Uh ... damn it, I KNOW I know this one, 'cos I watched the game ... gah ... oh! I know, it's ..."

Cheers to JD!
Well, sorry about the mishap. I'll try to not be such a schmuck in the future.
Anyway, the original question was an interesting one, if improperly worded. As such I think it must be discarded. The rebound question JD got right on the first try.
Good job JD, your point and your question.
