I will humbly submit that I, a baseball fan and (to a lesser extent) a
basketball fan, can

	(1) Name a starting lineup for each team in the National
	    League, name at least 80% of all its players (.80x12x25=240)
	    (though I'd recognize about 95% of them), and

	(2) Name the starting five for each team in the Atlantic
	    Division, and at least 50% of all the players in the Eastern
	    Conference (.5x11x12=66) (although I'd recognize about 75%
	    of them).
