To go along with my buddy elocomotive's topic what are some of the dumbest you've ever heard? In any sport.

The week before the Super Bowl has produced some gems because they run out of things to ask. Two of my fav's...

Asked to Doug Williams QB of the Redskins, "How long have you been a black quarter back?"


Another.."If you were a tree what kind of tree would you be? Don't remember who asked the question or to what player but it would have floored him if he said, "Country". :p

i remember watching a penguin broadcast this year and they were talking about giroux.. they said something to the tune of "he was taken 17th in the draft and paul holmgren got off to a good start by forgetting his name"

which is of course, wrong on both accounts. giroux was taken 22nd, and bob clarke forgot his name

Questions I hear because my name is Wayne Newton:

Can you sing? Answer-Like a frog.
Don't you wish you had his money? Answer-No, I like being poor
Does anyone ever make fun of your name? Answer (my favorite)-No, you're the only person smart enough to think of it.

Edit-Toss in the occasional fig or Issac Newton jokes/questions.

Don't remember it specifically, if somebody finds it I would be grateful, but a reporter asked retired pitcher Antonio Alfonseca who has 6 fingers on each hand, asked how long he's been pitching with an extra finger (or something equally idiotic).
