I’m disappointed that I myself couldn’t get Malarchuk. He was the person that YouTubers referenced a lot when Adam Johnson died in that English hockey league incident and therefore I should’ve remembered the name.
I knew someone would get that one quickly, I just didn't know who.

You're still on a duck in this thread.

For Major League Baseball players who played some or all of their career during the ' Blue Jays Era ', (post 1976), Hall of Fame member Don Sutton holds the record for most career at bats without hitting a home run, (1,364).

Next on the list is an infielder who finished his career with the Blue Jays.

He later wore a Blue Jays uniform for a season almost twenty years later, and lied about his career in the military.

What's his name?

In the 'Merger Era', (post 1969), four players who were selected with the #1 pick in the NFL Draft never played for the team which selected them*.

Name as many as you can.

*Excludes the 2026 Draft.

All four answered correctly by Pretzelmaster.

Who are the only 2 people that have had their engraved name removed from the Stanley Cup?

Answers:

1. Basil Pocklington--1984(answered by downbound123). When the Oilers won their first cup owner Peter Pocklington had his Father's name engraved on the Cup, even though his Father had no role in the organization. When it was brought to the attention of the NHL administration they had the name over written.

2.
The second one has to be Brad Aldrich right? The Blackhawks scandal was big news

Who am I?

I did not attend High School nor University in Canada or the United States.

I was signed as an amateur free agent less than a month after my 20th birthday.

I stole 20 or more bases in each of my first eight Major League seasons, including three consecutive seasons in which I both averaged 50+ Stolen Bases AND I led my League in being caught stealing.

I hit 17 of my 36 career Home Runs during my final two seasons in the Majors, following two years spent playing professionally in Mexico.

I played in four World Series for three different teams in three different decades, (winning twice). My last Major League game played was in game 3 of a World Series in the year when I won my second Championship ring. I continued to play professionally in Mexico and Caribbean Winter Leagues until age 46, more than ten years after my last Major League game.

I was once one of three Major League players traded in midseason for Rickey Henderson.


I was once sentenced to 60 days in prison after pleading guilty to having had sex with a minor.
