    Backed off on doing these for a while because of the draft....but now a lull has set in for a bit so I pick this back up.     Here is today's trivia question(s):

    A.  Twenty (20)  people who are "primarily"  associated with the Browns  have made the Hall of Fame.

    Name as many as you can

    B.  There are 5 more players  who had a "cup of coffee" with the Browns that are also in the HOF.    Name them.

    Hint on this one:  While Dick LeBeau was drafted by the Browns, he never played a down for them, so he does not count here. 

    A. Otto Graham, Marion Motley, Bill Willis, Dante Lavelli, Mac Speedie, Lou Groza, Frank Gatski, Jim Brown, Leroy Kelly, Paul Warfield, Paul Brown, Ozzie Newsome, Bobby Mitchell (I would think he primarily played for Washington?)

    B. Len Dawson, Doug Atkins, Willie Davis, Henry Jordan

    Check on all these.  Mitchell split time between here and DC, so he is considered a prime player for the Browns.   Same deal for another you did not name.    There are 4 more.

    B. Len Dawson, Doug Atkins, Willie Davis, Henry Jordan

    All good.  One more.

    Name the Top 15 NFL coaches who won the most games in his career.

    Check on all these.....assuming you mean Marty Schottenheimer  (and there if no K in Noll, otherwise there would have been all kinds of jokes about him being Grassy Knoll😆)

    8 others.

    I just heard on the news that they think direct hot sunlight kills the corona virus.

    We are certainly good then it is about 90 here. We’ve been out of harms way for the most part.

    But, it can still thrive indoors.   And if someone breathes on you who has it, even if you are in the sun, you could still get it.

    of course. 

    We have had a relatively low number of cases considering the population.  Maybe it’s because of the weather.  In my opinion social distancing and staying at home aren’t being followed that closely here.

    Sweden didn't really ever do any social distancing - and they never locked anything down, and have barely any deaths, etc. Gee.

    Really?  Nearly double the death rate in the US: 

    https://www.newsweek.com/sweden-coronavirus-rate-1501250

    As of today, 2462 people have died there, a much higher number than the neighboring countries of Norway (207), Finland (206) or Denmark (443).

    If you can believe ANY of the stats. The US is allowed to attribute CV deaths withOUT any testing or verification. The standards are basically "Well, if you think their symptoms are 'close enough' to CV, then count the death as CV." Only problem is, the flu and pneumonia would have the same symptoms, so who knows the real death count of CV in the US? There is so much bull s---t going on.

    I can't believe those 3 didn't make the list.
