Q: What star running back at Mesa High School and ASU later played for the Chicago Bears?

Q: Why the fuck is Bug giving us sports trivia about Arizona?
A: After learning that some husbands don’t want to know about anything unless sports are attached I’ve decided to be sneaky and use my subliminal messaging powers to help sway the masses of un-educated men (so basically just the 3 that read this site…it’s a start though).

Just another service provided by your friendly neighborhood Bug ;)

The real sports facts here were kindly provided by “Arizona Trivia” which was compiled by James A. Crutchfield. Thanks bro!
