This is Humbugardy. I'm your host, Alex Scorebard.

Biggio's not tall.
Vaughn sure wasn't small.
Morris hurled the ball...

1. Murray

What is Seton Hall University?

2005-08-23 13:17:01

2. Joe

What is Seton Hall?

2005-08-23 13:21:03

3. Joe

Forty friggin' seconds.

In related news, "The Hit Men and the Kid Who Batted Ninth" is a good book about Vaughn, Biggio, John Valentin and possibly the best player on that Seton Hall team who never made it, Marteese Robinson.

Murray got the right school, but unfortunately we can't accept his response, as we needed the line to rhyme. So Joe wins, and the board is his...

Damn Joe, 40 seconds - I think that's the closest someone has missed it by yet. Meanwhile, I'm almost 10 minutes late . . . sigh.

6. Shaun P

Wow, guess I should have waited 40 more seconds before I posted - congrats, Joe.

I hate winning on a technicality, but I'll take it!

How 'bout "Same School" for 500, Alex...

2005-08-24 07:02:23

8. Murray

Totally weak. Whatever. Or did my response here have to rhyme, too?

Thou hast cast a pall
on my response of Seton Hall.
For me there is no felicity
due to use of the word "university."

if it has to rhyme, then it should also be in the right meter and fit in with the verse so the whole thing makes sense. for example, a fitting answer to this one would be "what is, 'all at seton hall'?"

by the way, i was THIS close [imagine fingers almost pinched together] to going to seton hall for grad school this fall, but i'm at syracuse instead.

"What is" is two syllables, not zero.

11. Vishal

"what is" is supposed to be part of the verse?? color me confused.
