This is the official Golf Rewind Sports Trivia thread and here's how it works: Beginning with me first, one person is going to ask a sports-related trivia question. The rest of you folks then chime in with your guesses as to the answer to that question. The first person to correctly guess the answer will then take over and ask their own trivia question. Then whomever is first to answer that question takes over and asks their question, and so on...

Now, for a couple small rules. The person submitting the question has 24 hours to get back here and provide the correct answer to their question. If after 24 hours no one has provided a correct answer to the question, then the questioner is free to provide the answer and make up another question (or ask someone else if they'd like to if they so choose) to be answered. If after 24 hours the questioner has not shown up to provide the answer, then the question will come off the table and someone will need to volunteer to come up with a new question.

So, to start it off, here is my question:

Triples are often called "the most exciting play in baseball." Yet with the emergence of newer, less quirky ballparks, triples have become a rarity in modern baseball. However, back in the early days of baseball, triples were more common than home runs. All time baseball greats such as Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Tris Speaker, and Paul Waner are all in the top 10 of the career triples leaders. But who is the alltime leader in triples?

Good luck everyone and have fun!

Sam Crawford, thank you very much.

Yes, you are correct. Your turn now.

I'll expand on the "triples" theme with the "triple double" in the NBA. This may not be too tough for some but I'll try it.

Who is the NBA's career leader in triple doubles?

I'm gonna guess Oscar Robertson.

I have no idea.....
Baseball isn't a too popular sport in NZ, so I know nothing about it

I can see...the NBA is basketball!

I don't know things about nba either!.... how about some NON american questions

Someone non-American will get one and then you'll get your wish....just be patient, there will be plenty of questions in this thread we hope.

Although the Big O is the only player to average a triple double for the whole season, I believe Magic Johnson holds the most career triple doubles with over 100+.

i say it IS oscar robinson, held the season record with 41 and the all time with 181

how about whoever wins this, post a question i would know?

lol

I was hoping we'd start with golf related trivia.

We need to get Montipora back here and then maybe we'll get some golf related trivia.

Well Montipora hasn't shown yet...any volunteers to come up with a new question?
