    I think the point of a serious trivia question is that there is an actual answer... not just the answer YOU have in mind. That's sort of like, "what am I thinking now" which is totally different than a trivia question.

    I am just mad I wasted so much time reading this stupid thread only to find the answer you had in mind was nothing interesting. That's another thing with trivia it's nice if the answer is interesting. For example, if George Bush was the answer it would have been sort of interesting because he wasn't known as a baseball player. We then would have said, "ohh, that's a good one Fandango thanks for that trivia question... I am going to use it again...." Instead we are left with a question with 1,000's of possible answers and THE answer is some guy we never heard of.

    Oh well, at least it's Friday....

    WRONG!!

    The letter "l" is spelled "el", therefore you lose.

    I think it is a trick question. Stown wants a letter number combination. I bet it is B3...his lucky Bingo number.

    A=a
    B=bee
    C=cee
    D=dee
    E=e
    F=ef
    G=gee
    H=aitch
    I=i
    J=jay
    K=kay
    L=el
    M=em

    S=ess
    T=tee
    U=u
    V=vee
    W=double-u
    X=ex
    Y=wye
    Z=zee or zed

    Note that vowels are spelled with their own single letter:

    A=a
    E=e
    I=i
    O=o
    U=u

    The only letters that do not contain themselves in their spelling are:

    Q=cue
    W=double-u

    I'm not 100% certain, but I believe that each of these players appeared on only one card...this one. So I guess one could ask, "Which baseball player(s) appear on only 1/2 a card?" image

    Don't be an idiot , can't you clearly see that either of those two players images takes up about 40% of the card, not 1/2 as you claimed.
