    I thought Jordan did both, but yeah. About that same time DJ Dozier gave up football and made it to the bigs.

    either him or DJ Dozier, who left the Vikings where he underperformed, and went to the Mets, where he underperformed. The man was consistent.

    Brian Jordan left the NFL after the 1991 season, and made his MLB debut in 1992. Of all the NFL/MLB players, he probably had the longest and best MLB career.

    There have been 10 kickoff return touchdowns in Super Bowl history. What two states have a tangential connection to all but one of them?

    I would guess an '80s Edmonton team.

    Ugh, messed up the question. This is all time single season 100 point season in franchise history.

    Florida is one.
    And since I'm going to be busy today and can't keep an eye on it, the other is Louisiana.

    Two of the 10 happened in the Superdome (including one by a New Orleans native).
    Of the other eight, one was by a Miami Dolphins player (Fulton Walker); one was by Percy Harvin, who played at Florida; and six of them happened in games played in Florida (four in Miami and two in Tampa).

    randomly found that Theismann was drafted by the Twins in 1971.

    Since I mucked up the question, the answer is the Pittsburgh Penguins with 12 individual and 30 overall.
