And the 9 teams in 20 seasons? And the games in San Francisco?

I've been out on the wrote, but can respond to each of you in one post

Not Jim Thorpe, sorry

Peter you are wrong. Another hint.

Not Jim Kendrick

[QUOTE=Eric72;2430392]Here are a few less-commonly-known shared team names (at least one each baseball and football) from throughout the years:

- Blues
- Braves
- Colonels
- Colts
- Cowboys
- Dodgers
- Indians
- Maroons
- Pirates
- Reds
- Senators
- Tigers [/COLOR]

My team is not on your list, but this is not a trick. You included the Maroons, but left out out a team that is much better known. Your list is not complete.

It is probably time for another clue, but let me finish my apple first if I can.

Note: Some of you have identified key aspects of several clues, but interpreted the clue incorrectly.

I have one primary sports card released as part of a major set. I don't think the company made any further sets. I may have driven them out of business.

With a number of active participants, I will give y'all more time.

I am pretty sure I got the Ben & Jerry ice cream angle correct.

So it's not Ben Cohen. That narrows it down.

Johnny Mize? He was in the 1941 Double Play set as a Cardinal, partnered with Enos Slaughter, and because he wasn't compensated for use of his image, he sued the manufacturer, Gum Products, Inc. Gum won, but the legal bills forced them to stop producing the series. He was a member of the Yankee teams that won five World Series in a row, the last and record-breaking one in 1953, when he was 40.

I was overthinking: "Most consecutive games with a 40+ yard field goal in NFL history – 10"

Peter, I have checked my personal scrapbook and actually only played two games in San Francisco in different years.
