WAMC's Ian Pickus and resident quizzer Mike Nothnagel look for a missing piece.Last week's challenge
Four NFL teams share their name with a franchise from one of the other three major North American sports – the NHL, NBA and Major League Baseball. What are the four teams? As a hint, two share a home stadium.
Answer: Giants, Jets, Cardinals, Panthers.
THIS WEEK'S CATEGORY: WHAT’S MISSING?
On-air questions: OK, Ian; this week I brought a game I’m calling “What’s Missing?” because that’s what you’ll have to figure out. I’ll give you the members of a certain group, but I’m going to leave one out. You tell me what the missing member is that completes the group. For example, if I said “candlestick, revolver, lead pipe, wrench, knife”, you would say “rope” because that’s the missing weapon from the game Clue.
