A collecting theory: the wife test

[terjung]

Oh man, this was fun to do. Here is my wife's list.

1) Manny Ramirez
2) Ken Griffey Jr.
3) Honus Wagner

not 4) Mark Price (that's basketball babe. He was with the Cleveland Cavs)
4ish) "something" Robinson (never did come up with Jackie's name - but meant him)
5) Cal Ripken

1 again) Manny Ramirez
6ish) Omar Vasquez "Isn't that his name? ... the guy your mom liked" (Vizquel)
not 7) Scotty Pipken (umm. I think you mean Pippen and he was basketball again)

7) Oh! Babe Ruth
8) That disease guy ... ummm, Lou Gehrig!

"I guess you can tell how much I like basketball" (You mean baseball?) - followed by tears of laughters from both of us
9) Mark "What's his face - the steroids guy. Our mailman looked like him" ... Mcgwire

1 yet again) wasn't there a Manny Ramirez? (Yes, dear)
10ish) That guy Rodriguez who dated J-Lo.
5 again) "That blue eyes guy who was good looking before he went bald... was that Cal Ripken?"
not 11) That guy who owns that big property on Davis Island (meant Jeter)


I gotta tell you. This was such a fun exercise! I've loved reading other people's answers and we got the giggles doing it here. Thank you to the OP for this thread!
