I will take the exact list and ask him to circle the ones he knows and supply their first name (or nickname, in Babe's case). If he gets half or more right, then you win the wager. I will even scan the sheet and put a copy on imageshack with his signature as proof.
I'm not chicken...I just want to make sure he doesn't have alzheimers or something.

I looked the list over and names like
Sugar Ray Robinson
Sugar Ray Leonard
Arnold Palmer
Babe Ruth
Jesse Owens
Joe Louis (hell the red wings play in joe louis arena...that's a name that is as common as back bacon to our neighbors to the north.)
etc.
etc.
etc.
are going to be obvious even to non sports fans.

Also, what are the stakes? I suggest a 6 month moratorium from posting in the Sports forum.

He is a chicken.
Me, I'd have to go to chess and join in the interminable debates on which was the better opening e4 or d4?

How about if I take the list and show it to my father? He doesn't really watch sports... I'm a pretty big sports fan and I only know 9 from your original list.
"Most people in the world would recognize at least half."
Ha!

Ha!
the fact that you wouldn't recognize the names is meaningless. sharpest, knife, drawer..put them in any order you like.
Do you have a generator out there on the veldt, or do you just get by without electricity.
