Tuesday Trivia


Despite recently scoring a pair of goals against Liverpool, Wayne Rooney still finds himself a distant second behind Dutchman Robin van Persie for the English Premier League scoring title. Who was the last Englishman to actually lead the English Premier League in scoring?

Sunderland's Kevin Phillips scored 30 goals during the 1999-2000 season to lead the Premier League in scoring, making him the last Englishman to lead the league. Here's a list of the league leaders since Phillips' title: Rajon Rondo's ejection against the Pistons on Sunday gives him a team high 7 technical fouls in just 22 games this year. At that rate, Rondo would accumulate 26 technicals in 82 games, enough to easily lead the league most seasons. Who was the last Boston Celtic who led the league in technical fouls in a season?
