Hard Knocks with Rocks

It was a tough trivia question this week for the less geologically inclined: both responses were for the mineral rated a 7 on the Mohs Hardness Scale: quartz. Number 6, however, is feldspar.


It's a pretty boring mineral really. Quartz is way more exciting with its variety of colors and satisfying crystalline structure, but they can't all be winners. Talc... don't even get me started.

As for this week, I'm dialing it back on the bizarre hobbies and going mainstream with some movie trivia. In honor of Moneyball being in theaters, this week's question is the following:

Which of the following actors has NOT starred in a movie about baseball?
  • Robert Redford
  • Tom Hanks
  • Kiefer Sutherland
  • Charlie Sheen 
  • Kevin Costner
Movie summary: Scott Hatteberg = OBP. OBP = wins. Scott Hatteberg = wins.*

 *Regular season wins only.
