    Ah, but since there were multiple famous Joe/Joseph McCarthys, there is no way to tell if they were the same or not. <insert smiley here>

    It would be better to clarify at the time of the entry so there is no question what you meant.

    You're right. Some people were adding clarifications, others were not. What can I say? I just hope JDPNYY doesn't disqualify those entries for technical violations.

    Didn't George fire Yogi right after a Joe Cowley pitched game? Of course that was like the second inning of the first game of the season, so maybe it was somebody else.

    Well for two reasons. As I understand John's rules if you repeat someone's answer you are dq'd. Also with the 30 minute restriction for answers you also broke that rule even though it was your second try.

    Of course, JDPNYY put a 30-minute limit on responses, but he never said points were in play, so there may be no "win."

    Such are the amazing vagaries of the JDPNYY point system.
