Thursday trivia time

Phil hits it lefty, but he is not left handed.

 

Is 7 Carl Lewis? Did he bobsled or something?

 

2. Roger Staubach at Navy....

 

No. 10 is not a trick question. Phil Mickelson is a left-handed golfer, even though he is right-handed. But his first tour win was the 1991 Northern Telecom Open (as an amateur), not in the 1980s.

 

OK, I take a couple of stabs . . .

5) John Schlee?
10) Russ Cochran?

 

7. Has to be Carl Lewis.

 

2) Jim Brown of the original Cleveland Browns???

 

No. 7 is not Carl Lewis. It's Eddie Eagan. Boxing and bobsled (I think). Trivial remnant from the days I used to love following the Olympics. I thought he was the only athlete of any nationality to do it, but I'm not sure about that.

 

Eddie the Eagle won a gold? I thought he was just trying not to die on that ski jump.

 

Hell, if I can win a gold medal trying to not to die in an event, sign me up for the luge.

 

Eddie the Eagle's last name was Edwards:

Actually the question is wrong, more than one man did. You forgot Barry Switzer, who won titles at Oklahoma and then Super Bowl XX something with the Cowboys.
