2001 The NBA announced the winner of its MVP award. He averaged 31.1 points, 4.6 assists, and 2.5 steals per game. Who is he?
1984 Magic Johnson distributed a playoff record number of assists ( tied 4 years later by John Stockton). How many did he have?
BORN TODAY: 1969 - NFL Hall of Famer had 18,355 rushing yards and 175 career TDs. Who is he?
BORN TODAY: 1953 - MLB Hall of Famer who had career average of .305, 3,154 hits, 1,596 RBI. Who was he?
1935 You don't think of Lou Gehrig as a base stealer, much less a player who stole home, but today he had his last steal of home (granted all were double steals, but none the less). How many did he have?
COME BACK TOMORROW FOR THE ANSWERS AND MORE SPORTS HISTORY
Well, I think I know the answer to 3 out of the 5. The 2001 MVP (31.1 ppg) was Allen Iverson. The NFL HOF (18,355 yds) was Emmitt Smith. The MLB HOF with 3,154 hits was George Brett. The other two are tough. Look forward to knowing the answers soon.
ReplyDeleteCorrect - the Lou Gehrig thing surprised me - I think he actually had 102 stolen bases in his career - who knew? but home? More back in the day than know, but still surprised
