Home Run Derby

[edit]

When are the participants for the 2018 Major League Baseball Home Run Derby announced? 104.220.37.73 (talk) 07:20, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This press release [1] from Major League Baseball says participants in the 2018 Major League Baseball All-Star Game will be announced on July 8th. Names for the Home Run derby are usually announced after that, so sometimes during the week of July 9th is the best we can say for now. Note that the Derby takes place on July 16th, the day before the All-Star Game; participants need not be members of the two All-Star teams. --Xuxl (talk) 14:17, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why didn't Diana Dors want to work with Joseph Janni?

[edit]

Our article The Big Money says "Diana Dors was originally cast as Gloria but turned down the role because she did not want to work with Joseph Janni". What were her reasons? DuncanHill (talk) 13:13, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Longest headed direct goal in soccer?

[edit]

The record for the longest headed goal belongs to a Norwegian player who scored it in a club game. But in that case the ball hit the ground and continued rolling and only got into the goal because the goalkeeper was on the phone with his mom (kidding, because he'd gone too far up and the ball went above his head). But what I wanna know is, what's the longest headed goal where the ball went directly from the head of the player into the goal without it ever touching the ground, as in Vertonghen's goal against Japan on Monday. Vertonghen was not even out of the penalty area so someone must surely have done better. Thanks. Basemetal 13:52, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Film about a dating female killer

[edit]

I'm looking for a movie title. In this film (crime) a woman killed few men. The killer appears on the dating advertisement. A detective posts and dating advertisement. He tries to find the female killer, who shoots the men in the head in the bed. This detective gets together with a blond woman. Doncsecztalk 17:51, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
