Nope.

A Bill(s) isn't really an animal, is it? The logo is a buffalo but isn't that more of a symbol of the city? The Buffalo Sabres isn't an animal name but they use a buffalo in their logo. I thought the Buffalo Bills were a reference to "Buffalo Bill" Cody.


EDIT: I looked this up on a site that will remain unamed (wink wink)...

"The Bills are named after Buffalo Bill Cody, the winning entry in a local contest."

9. The 1983 Auburn Tigers compiled an 11-1 record, and were considered by many to be the best team in the nation. Apparently the pollsters thought otherwise. Who leapfrogged Auburn in the final poll to win the national title in 1983?

Tha U

errr Miami Hurricanes

The question was "...had an animal in their names...". "Buffalo" is part of their name, even though it references the city, it's still an animal.

Fair enough...

13. The Pro Football Hall of Fame class of 1985 had the first two Heisman Trophy winners ever elected to the Hall. OJ Simpson was one of the inductees, who was the second inductee?

The Navy Cowturd, Roger Staubach.

20. The map of Europe has changed many times since the Battle of Austerlitz was fought in 1805. In what current country does the battlefield lie?

The Czech Republic

Surely Cicero or Tiberius must know the answer to number 10.

Mitral Valve

Not very surprising to see JSC answering the medical question.

actually, it is a bit surprising seeing as the imtral valve is not part of the gastro-intestinal system. I'll bet jsc alone has paid for atleast a half dozen vacaction homes for lousyanna GI docs. They probably got a hospital wing named after him somewhere.

8. What is the official name of the Auburn fight song?

War Eagle

Billy Joel - My Life

From Wikipedia......

The theme song for the opening credits was "My Life" by Billy Joel, although Joel's version was not used on the air. (The Internet Movie Database notes the cast sang the theme song, although this has not been verified.) Some reruns shown in syndication had a vocal version of the show's back credit instrumental theme, performed by Stephanie Mills, used for the front credits, with "My Life" removed altogether.

Dude you give up too easy.

Was the City even named for the animal?
People are animals and 49ers (and Raiders and the like) are people.
Their name is the Bills not the Buffalo Bills.

Try Something...

Maybe I should start offering prizes, like bad DVDs from my home collection and people would be more motivated.
