    Gillette Foamy NO

    It was definitely shaving cream.

              Our ole buddy Sam Wyche played for George Allen's 'Skins and coached Cinci to one.

              I know Jeff Fischer got a ring with the '85 Bears, but he never played in the SB due to injury.

                  This is a check

                  5. What team won a Super Bowl held in its home state (aside from Niners game at Stanford)

                  Raiders also in the Rose Bowl...

                  Check

                  9. There are 3 (or 4) other people besides Ditka who both played in and were the HC of a Super Bowl:

                  Dan Reeves (as mentioned above)...

                  Dungy played on a PTG championship team and HC'd Indy to their win.

                  Our ole buddy Sam Wyche played for George Allen's 'Skins and coached Cinci to one.

                  I know Jeff Fischer got a ring with the '85 Bears, but he never played in the SB due to injury.

                  (I cheated and found one more that I'd have never remembered...)

                  These are all a check...though I may have said that Sam Wyche was wrong, he is right. I was thinking of his days as a Bengal...not realizing he was in the SB for the Skins in '72.

                  Also, that one that you never remembered is the first one I thought of.

                  So, there is one more name to name in this category

                  10. Number of teams that have won a Super Bowl:

                  18?

                  12. Song that was #1 on the charts the day SBI was played:

                  (Cheated on this one, too... Never would have guessed it.)

                    Super Bowl Trivia. The Linguini Trophy goes to the winner:

                    Since all but one or two Answers have been given I will give the correct answers here:

                    1. Eli Manning and Tom Brady face off as starting SB QBs for the second time. Name the other pairs of starting SB QBs that faced off more than once.

                    Terry Bradshaw and the Steeler twice played Roger Staubach and the Cowboys.

                    Troy Aikman and the Cowboys twice played Jim Kelly and the Bills.

                    2. Which college has produced the most different players to win the Super Bowl MVP award with 3 players? Name school and players if you can

                    Georgia with Hines Ward, Jake Scott and Terrell Davis. Had the Vikings under Fran Tarkenton ever won one of those SBs it may have been 4. But 3 is more than any other school.

                    3. Besides the team above, 7 other schools have produced 2 different players to win Super Bowl MVP. Name the schools (and players if you can)

                    Alabama: Bart Starr, Joe Namath

                    Michigan: Tom Brady and Desmond Howard

                    4. A. No NFL team has ever won a Super Bowl in its home stadium, however, one team did win a Super Bowl in its home region. Name the team and the stadium.

                    After the 1984 season the SF 49ers won the SB played in Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto CA over the Dolphins.

                    B One other team lost a Super Bowl held in its home region. What team/stadium.

                    In 1979 the LA Rams who still played in the LA Coliseum lost the SB to the Steelers that was played in the Rose Bowl.

                    5. One other team won a Super Bowl held in its home state. What team, stadium?

                    The Oakland Raiders won the 1976 Super Bowl held at the Rose Bowl

                    6. Name those franchises that have appeared in a Super Bowl representing two different cities:

                    Rams: LA/St. Louis. Raiders: LA/Oakland. Colts: Baltimore/Indianapolis

                    7. Name those QBs who have been Super Bowl starting QBs for two different teams:

                    Craig Morton started for the Cowboys, then later for the Broncos

                    Kurt Warner started for the Rams, then later for the Cardinals.

                    That's it.

                    8. Which teams have won back to back Super Bowls with 2 different head coaches?

                    49ers first with Bill Walsh, then with George Seifert.

                    The Cowboys with Jimmy Johnson, then with Barry Switzer

                    9. Name those persons who have appeared in a Super Bowl as both a player and as a head coach.

                    Start first with Forrest Gregg...who played in the first 2 SBs with the Packers then coached the Bengals

                    Mike Ditka played with the Cowboys, then coached the Bears

                    18 have won a Super Bowl, 14 have not.

                    Note however, that of the 32 teams ALL but 7 (i.e. 25) have in fact won and NFL or AFL Championships. The only teams not to win a championship have been:

                    Bengals, Jaguars, Texans, Panthers, Falcons, Vikings, Seahawks

                    11. Which team gained the most yards from scrimmage in a Super Bowl. Name the team and year if possible.

                          Here is what is left. Maybe someone else can give it a shot:

                          4.B What team lost the Super Bowl held in its home city/region?

                          LA Rams in the Rose Bowl, Pasa-get-down-dena, CA....

                          This is a check

                          5. What team won a Super Bowl held in its home state (aside from Niners game at Stanford)

                          Raiders also in the Rose Bowl...

                          Check

                          9. There are 3 (or 4) other people besides Ditka who both played in and were the HC of a Super Bowl:

                          Dan Reeves (as mentioned above)...

                          Dungy played on a PTG championship team and HC'd Indy to their win.

                          Our ole buddy Sam Wyche played for George Allen's 'Skins and coached Cinci to one.

                          I know Jeff Fischer got a ring with the '85 Bears, but he never played in the SB due to injury.

                          (I cheated and found one more that I'd have never remembered...)

                          These are all a check...though I may have said that Sam Wyche was wrong, he is right. I was thinking of his days as a Bengal...not realizing he was in the SB for the Skins in '72.

                          Also, that one that you never remembered is the first one I thought of.

                          So, there is one more name to name in this category

                          10. Number of teams that have won a Super Bowl:

                          18?

                          12. Song that was #1 on the charts the day SBI was played:

                          (Cheated on this one, too... Never would have guessed it.)

                          That's alright... When I cheated for what I thought was the missing man, I still missed Forrest Gregg. 😮

                          Instead I thought Raymond Berry was the mystery man I was missing. Completely forgot that he HC'd the Patriots in '85 when the Bears dismantled them in the SB. But it turns out he retired as a player the year before the Colts lost to Joe Willie in SB3.

                          Anyway seeing Forrest Gregg begs the question:

                          How many former Browns coaches have taken teams to the SB?

                              Check,...but name the coaches

                              Walsh - Seifert

                              Johnson - Switzer

                              Incorrect on the basis the Cowboys did not win back to back Super Bowls with 2 different Head Coaches. Switzer was Cowboys coach in 1994, Johnson won in 1992 and 1993, Switzer won it in 1995.

                                  You are right. My bad.

                                  So, it has only been done once: Walsh and Seifert.
