2010 preseason trivia questions.
by PurpleGeezer on Sun Aug 15, 2010 11:52 pm
Each year we find out who the old diehards are:
1) Who can give me Christine Sinclair's dog's name?
Bonus points for the breed.
2) How many red cards have the Pilot women amassed this millenium?
Special Bonus if you can name the last Pilot who was sent off.
3) what was Christine's number, and what idol who played her position did she take the number from?

1) sparky, a wienersnitzel.
2) twenty nine send offs. Most recently was Ana Del Boque.
3) Christine wore number 91 in honor of Ron Artest.

2) My guess is six and Megan Rapinoe
3) Christine was number 16 - just like that one KISS song

Maybe you misunderstood. I was asking for RIGHT answers.
Any actual Pilot fans want to give it a try?
At least it looks like I won't be needing to bring out the tiebreaker question....

Christine wore #12 in honor of Paul Gascoigne. How can you not be impressed with his partying ability?

The red card question is a toughie... there definitely hasn't been one since 2001, so at least I can partially answer the question about how many UP has amassed this millenium (zero!). But as to who got our last one... no idea, though I can probably guess a few likely suspects.

Good job, but as to which Pilot player got the last Red Card:
- Spoiler:
- Austin Guerrero got red carded against New Mexico last year.
Apparently he objected to having Tennis Balls being thrown at him.
I didn't say anything about the last woman who got sent off.
I keep looking at the wayback machine and opponent websites (some actually keep their records) but I have found no references to a Pilot woman ever getting shown a red in the last 20 years or so. If I had to guess somebody who might have, I'd go with Lauren before 2001, Wynne, or Melissa Ribaudo as likely suspects. Those are wild guesses. there was a reason the question was a special bonus question...

right number (Though I think Paul wore #8 for most of his career), wrong idol or position.

Seems like Cori Alexander got one in a quarterfinal at UCLA. Or maybe it was just a penalty kick foul.

Just a PK... and a yellow.
A total dive, BTW, as Zerboni{?) later admitted.

You guys are on the wrong track. I said her idol played the same position, I didn't say it was soccer.
- Spoiler:
- She also played second base for a coed baseball team until the eighth grade, when she gave up the sport. But baseball stays close to her heart and is on her uniform. She wears No. 12, the number her favorite player, second baseman Roberto Alomar, wore as a member of the Toronto Blue Jays.

No guesses on the Dog?
I'll throw in bonus points for identifying her other pet

Robbie Alomar, huh? Was the red card for spitting on an official?
