Only if he tackles you.
Question four was the most evenly distributed, but only one person correctly chose Chris Kemoeatu as an all-American lineman. Two apiece said it was Sione Pouha, Makai Aalona and Mele Kalikimaka.
Breeanna, of Phoenix, chose Mele Kalikimaka, which is actually a holiday song ("On a briiiiight, Hawaiian Christmas Day!").
"I liked it because it was the hardest to say," she said.
She should try singing it.
The name of Utah's coach also baffled some Arizonans. (Actually, it baffled the Rock Report, too. Is it Urban Meyer or Kyle Whittingham?) Three picked country star Keith Urban, who earns only slightly less than Urban Meyer will earn at Florida. Two picked correctly, while one apiece chose Oscar Mayer ("They make weird food") and Urban Legend ("I've seen the movie 'Urban Legend.' It was gory, but I laughed").
Shortly after that was when the security showed up. The Rock Report moved outside, but not before passing two City of Phoenix cops and several security cameras. They all looked on with suspicion.
The Rock Report was getting tired.
Finally it found a knowledgeable sports fan. Tim, of North Scottsdale, got three of the five correct.
"All I know," said Tim, as he started across the parking lot, "is Utah's gonna beat the crap out of Pittsburgh."
Would that be with or without the help of security?
