Mike “The Miz” no clue last name haha

“The Miz” is the exact answer on the card.  And interesting info on him. 

Minnie minosa. I remember him playing for the Sox when I was a kid. He was about 100 years old.

Jack "The Cuban Comet" Brohamer.

Did spellcheck do that to you? Minoso is correct. I got to see him play a few years when he was with the Tribe in 1959 and 1960.  His career was basically over in 1964, but was brought back for a few at bats in 1976 and 1980 at the age of Methuselah. (54)

It was either spell check or fat finger typing :)

I lol’ed when I saw “mimosa”.

BTW, I recall that Bill Veeck brought Minoso back in 1976 and 1980 for a few at bats and the reason was so that he could be the only person to play in 5 decades.

I must remember when he was brought back.

A couple questions for today:

- Paul Brown is credited with inventing what commonly used “trick” running play?

- What Browns nose tackle is credited with sacking John Elway during “The Drive”?

Nope. Not him, either......and I liked Baker, too.

Clue: His last name is tough to spell and it’s Italian. 

How about Dave Puzzoli?

Dominic DeNucci.

I think that is it. I was drawing a blank on his name.

Spicoli.

It is, indeed Dave Puzzuoli. 

And lol at Gardens35 (I was expecting those kinds of answers from you!)

In 1997 Barry Sanders became the 3rd to rush for more than 2000 yards in a season. What former Brown was the Lions starting fullback that year?

I will take a shot with Leroy Hoard. 

I'd forgotten all about Hoard. Good guess!, but not him.
