FNGD Q2 - FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 12, 2008 - IN THE OLD DAYS.

#1 Post by etaoin22 » Fri Sep 12, 2008 9:00 pm

B - In the old days (1966 to be exact) there was a baseball team called the Toronto Maple Leafs, which played in the International League and was a farm team of the Boston Red Sox. Managing that team --- some one named Dick Williams.

But that is not my point..

The International League has featured at various times the Montreal Royals, the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Ottawa Lynx and a team nicknamed the Sugar Kings, in this rather distant city.


G - (I THINK THIS WAS IN 1960) Lerner and Loewe brought this musical to Toronto for its previews. Thinking that would be a lot further from New York than Boston, and that the NY press would stay away. NOT.

Ummm......Vancouver?

Ummm......My Fair Lady?
There is something wrong in a government where they who do the most have the least. There is something wrong when honesty wears a rag, and rascality a robe; when the loving, the tender, eat a crust while the infamous sit at banquets.

I'm not entirely sure those match-up with whatever the exact questions are.
