sports by the IOC :( )

him to take time off during the 1999 season?

ESPN Experience: ESPN's guest at the 2001 Pro Bowl in Hawaii
Specialty Round (Deion Sanders)
-------------------------------
Question: Deion Sanders has been a world-class professional athlete with
the Yankees and the Cowboys and the Redskins and the Braves and so many
more...but what about his "salad" days back in college with Florida
State? Deion hauled in 14 career interceptions for the 'Noles, not
including three CRUCIAL interceptions in bowl games. Tell me against
which three teams Deion had those three interceptions and match the
opposing team to the bowl game Deion was in when each interception
occurred.
Given answer: *VERY long pause* The Fiesta Bowl vs. Nebraska...*another
long pause*...[Kenny: 45 seconds...30...]...the Sugar Bowl vs....[Kenny:
Get it out...] Florida? [Kenny: it was against Auburn]
Correct answer: Fiesta Bowl vs. Nebraska (1988), Sugar Bowl vs. Auburn
('89) and Gator Bowl vs. Oklahoma State (Dec. '85)
Cash: $65,000 total
(This is the first time we've known of a time limit for answering the
specialty category; it's about two minutes...obviously to keep with the
theme)
