    Progressive was the watchword at this long since-demolished municipal stadium, from hosting Pink Floyd to a certain professional baseball debut, including a future HoFer's only pro season without a home run.

    Who is the only NFL player to be on the roster for five consecutive Super Bowl teams?

    I think it's Mike Lodish, four with the Bills and 1995 with Denver.

    Right era, and Lodish played in six Super Bowls (tied for second-most all-time), but the Broncos didn't make it there in '95.

    Since there are no takers, the answer is Gale Gilbert. He was the Bills' third-string QB for all four of their Super Bowls, and then the Chargers' backup in Super Bowl XXIX. The one with the Chargers, when he came in for a series in the fourth quarter, was the only Super Bowl he actually played in.

    0-5, but he cashed the checks.

    Saw this on Facebook and it was fascinating.

    What is the most consecutive seasons Cal Ripken Jr played 162 games and how many total 162-game seasons did he have?

    Who hit the first home run in Montreal Expos history?

    I remember seeing that somewhere, and I think the answer for the first part is three. Going to guess the answer for the second part is in single digits.

    Yes, he never played more than three consecutive 162-game seasons.

    The second one is not single digits. I'll leave it at that because I'll give away the answer.

    I think it was a pitcher.

    Then I will guess Carl Morton.
