Could you stump the schwab

Besides watching sportscenter, espnews, & baseball tonight regularly everyday I also love watching Stump the schwab when its on. Im amazed how much useless knowledge is packed in that guys head, I mean I know my current and mid-late 90s in sports (im only 22) but when you know who the fuck was leading in RBIs back in 1933 your just fucking crazy, and im amazed when people actually do beat him because you know theres someone else out there studying sports from the 1900s - 1980s religiously.

Some episodes I may be lucky to get 1-2 things right the entire time (not counting the opening round which is pretty simple to get a handful).

Other episodes I may know considerably more. However that's from the comfort of my own home.. I am sure it would be different under pressure, on national TV, with someone competing against me and the Schwab staring me down.

But yeah, the guy simply knows too much.

There's been a couple rare occasions where I knew more answers in the final stage than him or the contestant. But like the whore said, that's from the comfort of my own home, and more a complete fluke than anything else. Some arcane answer that I just happen to know becuse my memory is fucking bizarre. Not because my encyclopedic knowledge of all things sports like him. I'd never remember who Mary Jo Fernandez beat for some tennis title in 1984 or something.

He probably has a cd of sport encyclopedia on 1 comp and is playing WoW on another because he looks like a guy that plays MMOs :P Or he is that guy that just beat you 50 - 7 in 07 Madden when you thought you were the shit ;p
