PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"A little sports trivia..." |
I found this trivia game to be interesting with some tricky answers sandwiched around some rather easy ones. See how you do.Combine the two clues to create the name of a famous athlete, coach or figure. Most of these sports figures are now retired but there's a couple that are still active and some date back quite a few decades. For example: "Bond, ____ Bond" and "Deserving" = James Worthy. First and last name required.
