I got 105... not knowing the old guys hurt me. Pretty entertaining game though.

Nice Mike you had me beat by 3 but they dont have John McGraw listed under 1937 so i got shorted that one

If I knew how to spell their names, i would have done better. tried twice. 177 and 182.

It took me 5 minutes to realize they were not counting managers and execs. ::facepalm::

I've been doing this for a while, so I got a perfect score. Also got a perfect score for the footballers as well

Have taken this quiz many times, as Sporcle is one of the most addicting websites ever created. Still can manage only 102 lol. Always forget some obvious ones... Hate to admit it, but I forgot Ted Williams.

That happened to me the first couple times. I forgot Hank Aaron once, Roberto Clemente......

The time limit kills you, in order to get 200 you need to do 10 per minute with correct spelling (1 every 6 seconds without rest), and the list is flawed, many HOFer (known for managing) like McGraw, Jennings, Huggins, McKechnie, Griffith, Comiskey, Alston, Anderson, Mack, McCarthy, etc are not included and screwed me up big time.

Plus you have to spell correctly like Yaz, Schoendienst, Maz, Doerr, Delahanty, etc.
only advantage is names like Robinson, Brown, Williams, Jackson, Waner, Kelly, etc. give you multiple players

I got 177 in a 1/2 Ass attempt after being pissed off in first 5 minutes, because of flawed list.
I also jumped around too much, should have started right with 1885 and worked up. I also ran out of time on newer ones I easily knew, ie Sandberg, Brett, Puckett, Winfield, Boggs, Ryan, Carlton, Seaver, Rice, Eckersley, etc.

I can easily name well over 200 HOFers, but the time limit is the key...

I will try again later..

Jennings is on there. I just finished it in 9 minutes after seeing this thread. The last guy I got was Fred Clarke

It's just players, not managers, execs, presidents, etc.

 

[predatorkj]

I only got 115. Figures I'd remember guys like Kiki Cuyler but forget guys like Cy freaking Young. ::facepalm::
