Browns Sporcles!

With literally nothing going on with regards to the Cleveland Browns until August, and flat-out nothing happening on FCF, I thought now was an ideal time to tide sports fans over with a collection of Cleveland Browns-themed Sporcle quizzes. Good luck!

Can you name the Cleveland Browns starting QBs since 1999?
I missed one, and I suspect I'll be the only member of the site who does so.

Can you name the Cleveland Browns Draft Picks since 1999?
I sure can't. I only put up 44 in this one. Drafts are not my bag, baby. Warning: taking this quiz might make you depressed.

Can you name the Cleveland Browns head coaches?
I posted an 11/15. Can you believe we've had THREE interim coaches?

Can you name the Cleveland Browns in the Hall of Fame?
9/16. Do I even follow this team?

Can you name the Players who 'contributed' in 2010 for the Browns?
A more recent one for you. I got 71/101. Strangely, there are a few guys on that list of whom I've never heard.

Can you name the Cleveland Browns who wore each uniform number for the most regular-season games?
Wow. Just wow. I guarantee you get fewer of these than you expect.

Can you name the career leaders for the Cleveland Browns in the following categories?
A good one to finish up on - I got 55 of these.

Buckeye Sporcles!

With all the turmoil surrounding Jim Tressel and the Ohio St football program right now, us fans could use some fun. GET IT!

Trivia
Get your mind going with some random Buckeye trivia questions. My lone miss was the name of the student section.


Draft picks of the Jim Tressel era.
My favorite one. I expected to do better than the 46/57 mark that I put up, but the ones I missed were pretty tough (including two from '02 that I never even heard of). I didn't miss any high picks or any skill position players, except for one very forgettable receiver, so I'm OK with my score.


Heisman Trophy Winners
Something to get your confidence back up. Perfect score baby!


Starting QB's since 1960
30/50 here. All of them from '91 on, never heard of the ones I missed.


Starting bball lineups since 2000
Switching gears to the hardwood here. Picked up 35/55, getting all but one from '05 on (including Je'Kel Foster...don't act like you're not impressed). Boy was this team bad at the beginning part of the decade. I only got one player from '00-'02.


Career receiving leaders.
Such a storied tradition of great wideouts...starting in the '90s. Only got 11/20.


All-Americans.
Only 43/86 overall, but in my mind an impressive 27/33 since I was born in '86.

Tribe Sporcles!

If you're like me, and all three of you kind of are, Tribe Spring Training games are a nice herald of the upcoming season, but aren't always the most exciting things in the world. Also, if you're like me, you're a giant nerd, and thus should LOVE these Indians-related Sporcle quizzes! 11 Days until Opening Day, kiddies.

Indians Opening Day Lineups from 1991-2010
Probably my favorite Indians-related quiz on the board, created by former Mistake by the Lake Sporting Times proprietor Corey Rubin. I posted a 167/200 on this one - perhaps surprisingly, the mid-90's were my weakest spot.

Can you name the Cleveland Indians division-playoff-winning line-up in the film Major League?
If you can get anyone besides the six stars of the film, then color me impressed. Would it have killed them to include the manager?

Can you name the players who went into the hall of fame as Cleveland Indians?
I'm not sure what surprised me more - that I only got 7 of 12, or that I only recognized two of the five I missed? In my defense, I got everyone who played any games post-WWII. I'm looking forward to Thome and Vizquel's admissions to pad my numbers.

Can you name the last 30 Indians to hit 20 homers in a season?
26/30, and the four I missed were quite familiar. Only missed one from 2000 on, though. Confession time: desperate for answers to some recent seasons, I actually typed in "Marte." And no, I didn't read "season" as "career."

Can you name the players to homer for the Cleveland Indians in the 1990s?
I don't want to talk about how I did on this one.

Can you name the Cleveland Indians Award-Winners?
I missed three, and one of them I feel bad about. I'm pretty sure the 1926 MVP is made up.

Can you name the Cleveland Indians All-Stars from 1991 to 2010?
I put up a 53/55 on this one. I think a stronger player (or a two-person team) has a good chance to ace it.

Can you name the Cleveland Indians HR leaders for each year since 1969?
I did pretty well going back to '77 (though the 1990 leader plagued me), then just totally airballed '69-'76. My favorite part is that the leader from 1981 had...wait for it...SEVEN home runs. Hard to believe we didn't win a pennant in 40 years.

Cavs Sporcles!

For reasons unbeknownst even to me, the one person with mostly full access to the inner workings of my brain, I'm planning on watching the Cavs take on the Grizzlies this evening. Yes, the same Cavs who are currently riding a 22-game losing streak. Did I mention I'm going to the bar for this?

However, I understand that this may not be in the cards for a lot of you - at this point, I'm not sure I could even legitimately label someone a fair-weather fan for not making Los Caballeros appointment TV, because this is a fucking sports blizzard ten times worse than the one that just owned the Midwest (yet mostly spared Cleveland; suck it, Forbes). So, for some fun sports diversion that doesn't include watching an opponent blow by a Cavalier defender for an easy lay-in, here are some fun Cavaliers-related quizzes from Sporcle.com.

Editor's note: holy shit, we're up 26-24!
Editor's note the following day: Damnit.

Can you name the teams of the Big Four U.S. Sports?
Not strictly Cavaliers-related, but a good mental exercise and kickoff quiz. The time pressure on this may get to you. I took this one time and got every one except for Columbus Blue Jackets. I'm a fucking idiot.

Can you name the Top ten most tortured Cleveland sports moments (according to ESPN in 2004)?
Anyone who bothers to read FCF should nail this one, a recap of Cleveland sports' most (in)famous moments. I wanted to keep them fresh in your mind - we might not make a playoff appearance for a while, so you won't get to see that goddamn montage that every network shows every fucking time a Cleveland team reaches the postseason.

Can you name the Cavaliers' retired numbers?
Six retired numbers. No championships. Cavaliers basketball.

Can you name the Cleveland Cavs game 1 starters 1990-2009?
Let's just say there was one Cavalier point guard during the #23 era who I missed, and Nick can't be too impressed by that omission.

Can you name the Top 25 Point Scorers in Cleveland Cavs History?
I like the wine-and-gold coloring of this one. I got everyone in the first column at least. Is there some reason why we can't go through the Cavs' record books and award all of #23's points to Austin Carr? Would anyone oppose this?

Can you name the players who played at least one game for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2000s?
I don't recommend subjecting yourself to this quiz, but take a look: did we really use 23 different players in 2007-08? Wow. I got Kaniel Dickens, though.

Can you name the Cleveland Cavaliers Playoff Series?
This is a layup, pardon my pun. I think FCF readers could tell you the result of each series to boot.

Can you name the Cleveland Cavaliers 1st Round Draft Picks?
Any interest in seeing why we're such a lousy franchise? It's right here.

Can you name the Cavaliers all-time leaders?
You can get 22/34 just by entering two names. Gets harder after that.

Can you name the Cavaliers' scoring leader per season?
I only missed four here and got them all from 1982 on - I'll take it. I bet these are harder for franchises with actual history!
