Fantastic quiz John, thanks.

I'll have to miss it I'm afraid, as I could not even begin to guess some of the answers, & I'd be sorely tempted to use google, & that's not in the spirit.

Goood luck, & I'm sure it will go well.

QUESTION ONE



1. Give the name of a player who has received a card (yellow or red) in the group stages of this World Cup?

Two Passes here to start, the remaining seven all scored the maximum number with different players (all correct) apart from Rubbish and Ant who doubled up on Drogba




Scores

Everyone else = -5
Rubbish and Ant = -2
Arbboy 0
Cheapwetsuit 0

[horseplayer]

QUESTION TWO = Name one of the top 15 visited sports related websites by Americans? (source ebizmba.com) as of July 2014.

Few similar opinions here

Three people agreed on ESPN.COM and were right, three people also agreed on BLEACHERREPORT.COM (what?) and were right.

Surpisingly to me anyway Nfl.com was not right, the best answer was Sportsillustrated.com which was hit on twice.

Scores = WRONG

DUNGBEETLE PGA TOUR.COM -9
CHEAPWETSUIT AND ANT -9 (NFL.COM)

DH + RUBBISH SI.COM -2
KMAC,SCOTTY AND WILL ESPN.COM -3
ARBBOY,TIGHTEND, RINSWUN -3



Scores after round two

Arbboy -3
Rubbish -4
Dh -7
Tightend -8, rinswun -8 kmac -8 scotty -8 will -8
Cheapwetsuit -9
Ant -11
dungbeetle -14
