    Yep! the only one i knew..as dad was a Navy guy.. Eisenhower & that damn Ulysses S. Grant went there too.. Gipper has something against that Grant fellow as president😉  

    Yeah I knew that from my dad who was a NAVY guy in WWII and Korea.  My dad wanted to take me to see Staubach in his NAVY days when I was a teenager but we never made it.  I also wanted to play football at Annapolis but a knee injury wiped that out, I had the pull with my dad and local politicans to give it a shot.......and right in the Vietnam era.

    And I don't know what the Gip would have against US Grant,  but he is having a Woodstock flashback.   Great music !

    We got to see Staubach twice at Navy. Fun times..We also saw Marino & Dorsett at Pitt play at either South Bend? or The Big House up in Michigan? I'd have check the ticket scrap book on that one..?

    None of what you say is a correct answer.   No President ever attended Pitt or Notre Dame. 

    But...they have attended or been associated with Hiram, Mt. Union, Kenyon,  Miami Oh. , Muskingam, Cincinnati....but none of those are applicable answers above.

    How about Garfield? 

    Hmm, I think you are right.  I must have missed that one.  Do not see any  NFL cats named  Garfield.  😉 So make that 8 names. 

    The thing is,   the names  Taft and Garfield are so ubiquitous around Ohio,  we forget that really these are very rare names.

    I could be wrong, just don't remember that name.

    No, I checked.  There was never a Garfield in the NFL.  I missed it.   (There have been a few McKinley's)

    Like I said, Garfield is not a common name.   Only other Garfield I have heard of was actor John Garfield.   And I don't think I have ever heard of anyone else named Taft that was not associated with the William Howard Taft family..   Have any of you?

  • Your job is to match the President with the Football player  by  who attended the same college.      I will give you an example:  Donald Trump attended  Penn,  HOFer  Bert Bell  attended Penn.  Match those two together.

    Presidents (alphabetically)

    Jimmy  Carter.    Bill Clinton.     Millard  Fillmore.     Gerald Ford.    Benjamin Harrison.     William Henry Harrison.  Herbert Hoover.     John F. Kennedy.      Richard Nixon.    Barack Obama.      James K. Polk.     Donald Trump.     Woodrow Wilson

    NFL  People (alphabetically)

    Chuck Bednarik.     Paul Brown.     Dan Dierdorf.     John Elway.   Henry Jordan.    Sonny Jurgenson.     Marv Levy.    Vince Lombardi.      Sid Luckman.     Khalil Mack.     Roger Staubach.     Paul Tagliabue.   Lawrence Taylor.     

    Answers then:

    Jimmy Carter and  Roger Staubach    Navy

    Bill Clinton and Paul Tagliabue:    Georgetown

    Millard Fillmore and Khalil Mack:   Univ. of Buffalo    (Fillmore was the founder of that school)

    Gerald Ford and Dan Dierdorf:   Michigan

    William Henry Harrison and  Chuck Bednarik:    Penn   (also, Trump and Bednarik)

    Herbert Hoover and John Elway:   Stanford.     (JFK also attended Stanford for a bit)

    John F. Kennedy and Marv Levy:   Harvard  (Obama also went to Harvard Law)

    Richard Nixon and  Sonny Jurgenson:   Duke

  • Here is a much easier, much more basic football question:

    Name All of the Kickers, Punters, and Tight Ends that are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.   (14 total names)

  • A few favorites Ozzie, Ditka, plus KW I, Shannon Sharpe.  Kickers Lou the toe Groza, Blanda, Jan Stenerud and the one and only punter John Madden's favorite Ray Guy.

    I did some punting and kicking way back my first kicking shoe was an old black square toe one.
