In the aftermath of last week's unexpected shakeup, I am presenting a quiz that differs from the stats-based quizzes that are normally posted here. After all, there may never be a better time for a quiz on the general managers of the Detroit Tigers. It certainly won't be easy, but who doesn't like a real challenge once in a while?
In the storied history of our beloved franchise, the Tigers have had 17 general managers. The position was first created in 1936, and only two men have held the job for a decade or more. The great thing about being a Detroit fan is that it is mutually exclusive to a Chicago White Sox fan -- or at least it should be. Granted, the Tigers have probably had some GMs that weren't exactly great (I can't speak for most of them, but that guy from 1996-2002 is not about to be inducted into any Halls of Fame). But when a Tigers rooter and a White Sox supporter get into an argument, there is one thing the Detroit fan can always say that will immediately win the dispute: "At least we never had Hawk Harrelson as our GM!"
So, without further ado (except for the next sentence, in which I give proper acknowledgment to myself), it's time to play one of the toughest quizzes ever posted to Bless You Boys!
