Answer to last week's question:  The Albatross

The Wandering Albatross has a wingspan of 12.1 feet. It is the biggest flying bird in the world alive. It is no surprise that they can glide for long distances without flapping their wings. They spend most of their life flying, which defines their wandering lifestyle. The only time they land is to feed and breed. ( Thayer Birding)

Thanks to those who payed Trivia last week!

This one is a process of elimination. I'm not a basketball fan, but I did watch  HBO series of the Lakers in the 80's.  So I know it's not Kareem and I think Shaq played later.  

So I'm guessing between Jordan and Irving.  Hmm....

I'll go with Jordan.

I think I actually remember this one.  BIG baseball fan in the 90's with my girls!

Hello Suzy, I do enjoy sports in matter of fact I had a couple of uncles who had golden gloves and wanted me to box but I realized at a very young age I was way to pretty for that.

I played hard ball till I was 36 and I actually got to tag Leon Durham out at 3rd base a year or 2 after he retired

Yes, I know the question is about basketball. I can remember the last time I played I was 55 years old and as a joke I sub into my son's game and played almost 3 minutes I actually had 2 rebounds and made my only shot which at that point I called timeout and walked off the court huffing and puffing, and praying I wouldn't have a heart attack, yet I did make it outside to smoke.  

 I was still watching basketball back in 1994. In matter of fact there was only 3 little things that kept me from playing in the NBA I couldn't shoot, I couldn't dribble, and I couldn't jump Come to think of it these were the same 3 things that kept me from playing high school basketball. I remember all of these players like the back of my hand and without a doubt

The Greatest Player of All Time Signed His Contract in 1994 is the One and Only Michael Jordan

That's OK -in HS they wanted me to lie down on the court when the foul line was faded!

BA-DA-BOOM!

@SuzyQ411 I have absolutely no idea. I am going to guess #2. Irving.

Michael Jordan. Turns out he was just a *little* bit better at basketball, though
