	Couldn't spell Palminteri after about 20 tries. A lot of baseball already, but Dizzy Dean? Dazzy Vance. And I am sure there aren't many old-time hockey fans on Sporcle who would remember Muzz Patrick.

	Yeah, the main reason I didn't include Dean was because I already had Dizzy Gillespie and I didn't want to double up on first names. (Similarly, Lizzie Borden got in over Lizzie McGuire, Izzie Stevens over Izzy Stradlin, Buzz Aldrin over Buzz Lightyear, and Ozzy Osbourne over Ozzie Smith, Guillen, and Nelson.) Good thought on Dazzy Vance, though I might still leave him off because of Piazza and Rizzuto.
