Birth Cert Don't Lie - Weekly Trivia!

I gave a list of older Celtics (and Rondo) to choose from this week - but actually, the correct answer is the only one on the list that is not a current Celtic: Rasheed Wallace.


Sheed was actually out of the league the past couple years, but the Knicks were dead set on becoming the oldest pro basketball team in the universe. He's 38 years old - second on that list was KG at 36. If you're the winner, let yourself be known to claim your bragging rights.

It seems like all I ever hear about these days is talk about Abraham Lincoln. Whether it's Doris Kearns Goodwin's new book, Team of Rivals, or DDL's Oscar-baiting performance in the newly released Lincoln, the American public is going to up their Honest Abe IQ this month. How about a pre-test though?

Which of the following is NOT true about Abraham Lincoln?
  • He's the tallest U.S. president of all-time
  • Suffered from depression
  • Was considered weak and sickly
  • Was the first U.S. president to have a beard
  • His home state was Illinois
  • Had a different Vice President for each of his terms
  • Was watching the play "Our American Cousin" when assassinated
Have a good weekend, acolytes.
