    After 10 days in New England....with all the Patriot pole smokers. Though....at the resort I stayed at in Rhode Island I struck up a conversation with the custodian there about football. He was a Jets fan. And of course he hated the Patriots. But one part of the conversation I could not abide: He said I should be all for the Pittsburgh Steelers because they were the only team that could take out the Patriots. I would have liked to dunk his head in the hot tub. I told him I will take the Patriots winning 10 more Super Bowls in a row rather than have the Steelers win one. Oh well, each to his own.

    Nevertheless....Oh, I didn't mention: this is a Trivia thread. Mostly about #1 overall draft picks, plus a couple of others. Here you go..starting with a question for Woody:

    1. What uniform number has been worn by more Hall of Fame players than any other?

    2. Pro Football Reference has this statistic: Approximate Value. It is supposed to measure a players overall Career Production.

    Where is "White Tarkenton" on this list?

    3. Who are #s 1, 2, and 3 on that list?

    4. Which 5 colleges have had 4 or more players from those school taken with #1 overall draft pick?

    5. Which #1 overall draft pick scored the most TDs in his career...rushing or receiving?

    6. Name the 4 #1 overall draft pick QBs who have won 100 or more games in their careers.

    7. Which #1 overall pick rushed for the most yards in his career?

    8. Which #1 overall pick was chosen for the most First team All Pro teams? Hint: not a QB

    9. Which 2 #1 overall picks never played in a professional football regular season game?

    (not including Myles Garrett who has not yet played in one)

    10. What is the only Ivy League school to have a player chosen with the #1 overall pick. Name school and player.

    11. Name all the schools in Texas that have had a player chosen with the #1 overall draft pick.

    12. Two QBs are tied for making the most First Team All Pro teams in history with 7 each. Name these 2 QBs

                    So far, no one has gotten any of the trivia question correct. I wonder why?
