I would have to say Albert or Perry for #2. I think Leo came later in the 60's.
And, I think Eddie's father, Eddie senior actually bought the team and gave it to him.
One more hair-splitting. You could say that they only won three SB's in the 80's because the 89 season championship was played in early '90.

I agree with you. However it was Senior who bought the team & gave it to his son Jr as a present. Also question 7, I think that Johnson never got 50 & I know Lott passed the 60 mark, so I'd have to go with that.
Great questions....

I still think it's 8 out of 10 because Senior bought the team, not Junior, but it's a minor distinction. Who was the first draft pick? Perry or Albert?

To add some hair-splitting of my own, I would think a choice of 5 superbowls during the 80s might stump some people. A choice for Montana's draft round should also be 6th, as Tom Brady was drafted then and you know they are so comparable. Also, for the first question, a choice should have been 1949, as some of the youngins might see that and think, "well, duh." :P

Hey I've checked and your wrong about Jimmy Johnson, HE NEVER reached 50 INT's, only had 47 INT, so that can't be correct which means ONLY Lott reached the 50 INT plateau...I only missed one then...
