The Bronx Stop: A Yankees Blog

Chien Ming-Wang has a very in-depth (to say the least) trivia challenge on his official website.

There are thirty (yes, thirty) multiple choice questions on the man they call Wanger. To put those thirty questions in perspective-- my last college exam in a 400 level class was thirty multiple choice questions. In fact, I'm pretty sure this test on Wang was actually harder!

I only managed to get through the first ten and of those I got four wrong. Whoever writes Wang's tests is not kidding around!!!

Here are some examples of some of the questions (pretty tough stuff!!!):
