Well, technically, it would be the Rays and/or the Diamondbacks in 1998. But, I'm guessing that's not the spirit of your question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the actual commercials. I was a baseball nut as a boy, so I knew who Joe was even though I never saw him play. And, my mom thought he was handsome.

But the Boston Red Sox were the last to integrate when they promoted Pumpsie Green from AAA in 1959...12 years after Jackie Robinson had made his debut with the Dodgers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What QB has the second most wins at Gillette? I'll guess Jimmy Garoppolo. I was initially leaning towards a visiting player, but they dominated their division the last 20 years, I'm not sure a single visitor made it to 3-4 wins.

The correct answer is Cam Newton with 6 wins.5 as a Patriot and 1 as a Panther 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His prime wasn't all that long...The knees kept him from reaching his real potential... A lot of people think he shouldn't be the the HoF as his overall numbers are kinda pedestrian...50% completion rate and more interceptions than TDs...Only played on 3 winning teams in 12 years...But his impact on the pro game is undeniable...And The Guarantee in (my estimation) the most important game in pro football history cements it... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe at least a Raiders QB because Al's love affair with the vertical game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
