Plaque buildup

Strohs · 02-13-2002, 02:13 AM

Which Hall of Famer is mentioned on the most plaques of other Hall of Famers?

Xanadu Dragon · 02-13-2002, 07:17 AM

Rickey or Weiss?

Strohs · 02-13-2002, 09:10 AM

Negative.

As a guess - Ruth. As in a bunch of "second only to ...", "behind only ...", etc. type quotes.

Strohs · 02-13-2002, 10:43 AM

No, not the Babe.

sweaver · 02-13-2002, 10:48 AM

Cy Young, as in "Award."

Strohs · 02-13-2002, 10:53 AM

Excellent deduction. Cy is mentioned on 12 other Hall of Famers' plaques, more than any other HOFer.

Cool question

McGraw?

D'oh!

I'll have to admit I stole this question from a recent ESPN Jayson Stark column. Very good trivia question.

YankeeLinks · 02-13-2002, 12:31 PM

I don't consider that stealing. I imagine most of the questions that are asked come from some source (announcers during a game, SportsCenter, newspaper, magazine, other sites, a friend, etc.). I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Am I wrong?

Xanadu Dragon · 02-13-2002, 12:50 PM

I agree with YankeeLinks.

I think of it more as "liberating" than "stealing."

Strohs · 02-13-2002, 12:53 PM

I just thought I'd cite my source. Most of the questions I use I come up with myself, I didn't want to take credit for an excellent question that I didn't write.
