An aside on question #6. Like Mrs. Swanson, I too suggested and submitted the chosen name to a new professional sports team, but all I got in recognition for my submission of the name was a lousy T-Shirt.
That team?: The Akron Aeros.
(I chose the name because of Goodyear Aerospace, Loral, Lockheed Martin, BFGoodrich, and other area companies had their hands in the Aerospace Industry....including historically Akron was the original home of the original American lighter than air ships...or Zeppelin's. The Macon and the Akron, and the Shenandoah, which all, like the Hindenberg crashed, though not quite so spectacularly)

3. The Dolphins have had 4 players born and/or raised in Northeast Ohio lead them in receiving (catches) in a season. Name the 4 players. Lavelli and Warfield have to be the only Browns unless there is someone I am missing from the 50's or something. Regarding Warfield and the other 3 Dolphins, I'll go with OJ McDuffie from Hawken and Penn State, Chris Chambers from Bedford and Wisconsin and Ted Ginn Jr from Glenville and OSU.
6. Stow native Larry Csonka is the Dolphin's career rushing leader....but, only by 301 yards. Who is second behind Csonka in career rushing for the Dolphins? (hint: not from NEO)I will go with Ronnie Brown over Mercury Morris and Tony Nathan
NO This one has me perplexed. I didn't think Ricky Williams had enough to be the leader, but if it is not the others, it must be him.
Flipper was a joke guess BTW. I knew that as much as I know the homo's name who dresses up as Steely McBeam.
