I love it when you get a score below 0.1%. I got a nice 0.06% one for Vancouver & Sacramento.


293 in the soccer one.

A nice 0.06% one.

I am stuck on the soccer one.

I got one more on the soccer one. 7/9 for 481.

Huh. That was a two-step solution. Turns out the first guy played with Wall as well. I have no idea when.

Ohh, okay. Yes. I see. Wow, should have gotten that one earlier.

I had a nice one there. I struggled to remember much of Lou Will's career outside of his first team so I had to find a way to match him with one of his early teammates.

I tried a Nets ABA to Spurs NBA player. It worked.

I find the Nets a tricky team to deal with. Stuck on that column for awhile. I had a nice 0.06% guess for Clips / Magic (I was watching some D Miles Clippers era games recently and there was a bench player in common) and ended up with a 0.08% for the Nets / Clippers which is a previous guess which I remembered as working from a previous grid.

The Nets / Bulls one was the one that caused me the most problems. The Bulls / Magic was tricky too other than the goggles guy. Took awhile to think of someone else. Interestingly, the two guesses played with each other on the same Bulls team.


I am struggling with the soccer one. I got half the grid quickly. Now I am dead. A German based grid. Got 2 more. 7/9 for 348. I did well to get two Swiss GKs. Missed the final Swiss and the M'Gladbach Chelsea player.

I find these tougher after doing the grid. However my head works it settles on one mode of thinking and struggles to switch to the other puzzle. I found this one hard. Pretty happy with the two-step solution. I was struggling to find a connection.

The shorter path suggestion was a good one. Doable.

I know very little of Randle's career. Not memorable.
