    yes. Wilt said countless people over the decades came up to him to say there were at the game. I have to wonder if Unitas ever mentioned it to him that he was there that night even if he didn’t stick around .

    The record for mlb career wins by two players drafted by the same team in the same year is 624.

    Name the players and the team that drafted them?

    Seaver and Ryan, but I'm not sure they got drafted.

    Seaver was drafted twice, by the Dodgers and the Braves.

    Good guess, but Mets never drafted Seaver. There was the strange lottery for him after his Braves contract was voided.

    Both were drafted by the Braves, but two years apart.

    correct!

    I was scrolling around looking at the idea of what drafts years produced the best teams when I came across that little factoid.

    Trawling for an answer on this one. What is the record for most seasons between sacks for one player for the same team?

    I think the answer is 10 with Chad Brown with the Steelers, but some of you all have deep memories and there may be someone else.
