illwauk Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 -LeRoy Butler and Edgar Bennett were teammates in high school (Robert E. Lee High School in Jacksonville), college (Florida State) and the NFL (Green Bay).-Before Barry Bonds passed Willie Mays, the top three all time home run hitters (Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth and Mays) all began and ended their careers in the same city, but with different teams.-Of MLB's six current divisions, the NL East and NL West are the only two that the Brewers have never been a member of.

Wasatch Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 During the 1943 NFL season, the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers merged operations and rosters due to loss of players to military service in World War II. The team was officially referred to as Phil-Pitt and was nicknamed the "Steagles" by fans. They played 4 home games in Philly and 2 in Pittsburgh and finished the season 5-4-1.Does anybody have any photos of their uniforms or helmets?

B-Rich Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 The New Orleans Saints have lost games to expansion teams seeking their first ever win two times. Oct 31st 1999 Cleveland Browns 21 New Orleans Saints 16Dec 11th 1977 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 33 New Orleans Saints 14-- The Saints also gave the Houston Texans their "first ever" win as a franchise, in a pre-season game, on August 10, 2002, losing 13-10. -- They missed giving the Carolina Panthers their first-ever regular season win by one week. In 1995 the Panthers defeated the Saints one week after getting their 1st win against the New York Jets. I lost a bet on that; I predicted one of the two expansion franchises that year(Jacksonville and Carolina) would get some form of "first win" against the Saints (The bet was for a car detailing). -- In 1996, the Baltimore Ravens got their second-ever regular season win against the Saints on September 29, 1996, winning 17-10. which leads me to the best strange but true sports fact:Yours truly, B-Rich, once saw two different NFL games in person on the same day: the afore-mentioned Saints-Ravens game in Baltimore in the afternoon, then a Redskins-Jets game in RFK that very same night. It is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Yes they were. Regardless of what the NFL says, the reality is the Browns moved to Baltimore in '95 and an expansion team took their name.

Viper Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I can't believe no one's mentioned this yet - including myself a few posts back - but...The Tampa Bay Buccaneers won their first Super Bowl in 2003, four years before they had their first kickoff runback for a touchdown.

infrared41 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 There have been 15 unassisted triple plays in MLB history and the Cleveland Indians were involved in 6 of them. In a side note, I have seen in person one third of all the unassisted triple plays the Indians have executed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The Chicago Cubs last won the World Series before the NHL, NFL and NBA even existed.Even if the Cubs won the World Series in 1945 (the last time they appeared in the World Series), they'd still have the longest World Series draught of any active MLB franchise.The Boston Red Sox didn't win the World Series between 1919-2003.

Instead, the two groups learned to assimilate peacefully. However, certain tribes of the leprechaun refused to taint the pure blood and moved north into the forests of Ireland, only to be seen rarely, usually at the same time of a rainbows appearance and occasionally at the factories of Lucky Charms.

jrodsep Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Despite being the all-time true home run champion with 755 homers, Henry Aaron never hit more than 47 home runs in a season and he only did it once in his career (1971 with the Braves). And also is the holder of the record (the one that really will never be broken IMHO) for most RBI's in a career with 2297 RBI's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
