5. 18 Wheels - Kathy Mathea(sp?)

[Sisyphean Fan]

4. He was the first left-handed quarterback inducted into the Pro Football Half of Fame.

The only thing that is a bigger travesty than the fact that this is Steve Young and not Ken Stabler is the fact that Ken Stabler isn't even IN the damned HOF!

45. Fanny could tell you that he is considered the most successful coach of the Denver Nuggets (outside of George Karl), putting together a 628-529 record and winning a Coach of the Year Award. Merry Man Carmelo Anthony could tell you that he’s currently a Denver Nuggets assistant coach.

I doubt anybody here save one could answer this without looking it up, but I bet Melly can answer it! So I'm leaving it be to see if she comes up with it.

The record you're referring to is his overall record, he has 432 wins with the Nuggets (so he is the most successful Nuggets coach, although Karl has more overall wins). Before we gave them up this year, our seats were right under his banner, they retired the number 432 to represent his wins.

Merry Man Carmelo Anthony could tell you that he is currently a Denver Nuggets assistant coach, but MMCA would be wrong.

69. In an infamous 2001 game, Marcus Camby tried to punch Danny Ferry in the face, but instead, accidentally punched this coach in the face.

Jeff Van Gundy, aka the Van Gundy that doesn't look like Ron Jeremy and is now a really crappy announcer. And an even worse bus driver (that commercial never fails to crack me up).

Yeah, I missed the word "overall" between the "628-529" and the "record".

After two months and 109 questions, this entire question stack is not going to be perfect.

After two months and 109 questions, this entire question stack is not going to be perfect.

Not sure what two months has to do with it, but I wasn't really correcting you. I just wanted to share my sitting under the 432 banner story (why I don't know, since nobody gives a crap, but when has that ever stopped anybody? Ha!). When we took the kids to their first Nuggets game a few years ago, we had to explain to them why somebody had number 432.

But I was correcting MMCA on the assistant coach thing. Since I didn't actually answer the question, it will be fun to see if anybody just looks up the Nuggets coaching roster for this year and answers Adrian Dantley. Ha!

It's not Jane Russell, since she was credited, but the movie must be "The Outlaw"

I don't know who it is, but the film definitely isn't The Outlaw. The first 3D feature film was Bwana Devil in the early 50s.

The question doesn't say it's the first 3D film. It says it's the actress's first appearance. --Bob
