Jesse Jackson
Patrick Henry
Henry James
Lowell Thomas
Martin Luther
Rand Paul
Ed Bradley
Franklin Graham
James Ross
Ray Lewis
Hale Irwin
Maurice Richard
James Dean
Washington Irving
Paul Allen
William Morris
Rosalind Russell
Henry Ford (which would match somehow with Ford Sterling?)
Dylan Thomas
Hap Arnold

We also have Washington Irving and Isaiah Berlin.

And we have multiple Jacksons and Browns.

One of the keywords is Guyana and we have a Jones, but no Jim yet as far as I can see.

Probably none of this means anything. I'm just spitballing.

RYAN HOWARD (Who fits Krox's observation of last name first names, and maybe first name last names too....)

[kroxquo]

How about this -
Washington Irving + Isaiah Berlin = Isaiah Washington (Anatomy)

[mrkelley23]

How about this -
Washington Irving + Isaiah Berlin = Isaiah Washington (Anatomy)

Since we need two associated words for each pair.

[mrkelley23]

79. This iconic figure was the spiritual forebear of such diverse characters as Bunny Manders, Arthur Hastings, and Archie Goodwin.

98. This writer’s history of his home city would eventually provide the name for one of that city’s major sports teams.
WASHINGTON IRVING?

I like this one -- Knickerbocker

[kroxquo]

Or maybe approach this backwards - which words might have a person whose last name might also be a first

ASSOCIATED WORDS
42 - Jackie Robinson?
Geneva - John Calvin?
North Carolina - Michael Jordan?
Virginia - Patrick Henry?
Scoop - Henry Jackson?
Refrigerator - William Perry?
Telescope - Percival Lowell?
Cannon - William Conrad?
Raven - Ray Lewis?
Yankee - Babe Ruth?
Daydream - John Sebastian?

[kroxquo]

How about this -
Washington Irving + Isaiah Berlin = Isaiah Washington (Anatomy)

And the flip-flop would be Irving Berlin (Yankee)

Since we need two associated words for each pair.

Then if we go back to my idea about scoop how about -

Patrick Henry + Robert Jackson = Henry Jackson (Scoop) and Robert Patrick (???)

[kroxquo]

Rand Paul + Sally Bowles = Sally Rand & Paul Bowles

[mrkelley23]

How about this -
Washington Irving + Isaiah Berlin = Isaiah Washington (Anatomy)

And the flip-flop would be Irving Berlin (Yankee)

Since we need two associated words for each pair.

Then if we go back to my idea about scoop how about -

Patrick Henry + Robert Jackson = Henry Jackson (Scoop) and Robert Patrick (???)

Robert Patrick played the T-1000 model in Terminator 2, so I think that works

[mrkelley23]

Rand Paul + Sally Bowles = Sally Rand & Paul Bowles

Sally Rand was a noted FAN dancer, and Paul Bowles wrote The Sheltering SKY, so those are certainly both possible.

51. PERRY KING + 39. WILLIAM GILLETTE = William Perry (Refrigerator) + King Gillette (Blade)

[franktangredi]

I didn't think it would take long, but I didn't expect people to get it that fast!

Of the 'definite' answers, six are incorrect - or, at least, not what I had in mind. I'm not going back to check if these are legitimate alternates because I think this will work itself out.

Of the ones with questions marks, four are right and four are wrong.

Of the ones wit alternates, two include the correct answer; one does not.

TANGREDI:
First names of the pair form the name of a person. Last names of the pair (in the opposite order) form the name of another person.

The Tangredi is obviously correct. However, there is an easier way of stating it that makes the game, per the title, 'sexy.'

This game is moving fast! First consolidation ...

Identify the 100 people in the clues below. Match them into 50 pairs according to a Tangredi, or principle you must discover for yourself. Then match each pair with two of the Associated Words. No names will be used twice.

I don't see how 14 can be Charley Pride. His signature song was always "Kiss an Angel Good Morning," and it came out in the early 70s. Plus, he had top five singles every year of the 1970s, including 1979.

My first thought was Kenny Rogers, but Lucille was much earlier than 1979. My second thought was Freddy Fender, but ditto for Before the Next Teardrop Falls.

I cannot find anyone who fits the clue.
