The News Cut Week in Review Quiz

Two things have never happened in this great country. (1) No team has ever won an NBA championship after being down three games to none and (2) Nobody (as far as we know) has ever received a perfect score on the News Cut Quiz.

Neither of these streaks is likely to end this weekend. Here is this week's quiz. As always, we invite you to take the quiz, then come back and submit a comment, indicating your score and impressing us with your creative writing ability to explain it.

Don't forget this weekend, I'm trying out an idea and I hope you'll be a part of it. Help document a weekend in the life of Minnesota. Details here.

Blah. When I do better I'll share my score. (Nice touch on the "trick answer"; you got me hook, line and sinker.)
