13) Will someone explain to me why we studied square roots in high school? Has anyone ever used this information in everyday life?

12) Is hot dog eating a sport? Compared to the frankfurt feast, bowling looks like a Boston Marathon, and people say bowling isn't a sport.

11) Why do people like Notre Dame so much? And why don't they spread their love to basketball team, and not just the football squad? They haven't won a bowl since '93, so people aren't being frontrunners.

10) If I were an elite athlete in college, and thought I had good shot at pro career, I would study courses that would help me make my own financial decisions, so the 4% that goes to an agent could be saved. God helps those who help themselves.

9) Why do baseball coaches wear uniforms?

8) Why are Rice and East Carolina in same league? They are nowhere near each other geographically, and appear to be worlds apart academically.

7) Why do all golf broadcasts have an announcer with a British accent? Is this a rule?

6) What do bicycle racers do the other eleven months of the year?

5) How great would major league baseball be if they had a salary cap and revenue sharing?

4) Is hosting the Olympics worth it, when you consider the vast expense of facilities and security? The games only last two weeks, after all.

3) How come the NBA averts a lockout, and hockey still has no deal? Just sign your names, let the healing begin. Enough damage has been done.

2) How do football players stand two-a-day practices in summer heat?

1) If NFL, NBA and major all started from scratch, and you owned a team in each league, and had the first pick in each draft, what three players would you take?
