    Which of these is the odd one out and why?

    a) Pele

    b) Dunga

    c) Feliz

    d) Envergonado


    Answer has to match MY reason. But all attempts entertained. :)

    Is it Envergonado because it's his real name?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,301 ✭✭✭Snickers Man


    Nope.

    Is it that Gonad fella cos he never won a World Cup with Brazil?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,301 ✭✭✭Snickers Man


    Not even close.

    stab in the dark but is it pele coz the rest played and managed the national side?

    If it's not the previous guess, is it because Dunga is the only one to ply his trade beyond the Americas?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy


    Dunga never beat Ireland? (except as manager)

    I dont know which one but my guess is one of them did not captain their side to a world cup victory.

    Feliz cos his name doesn't end in a vowel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy


    Feliz cos his name doesn't end in a vowel.

    While we're at it, Envergonado because his name is not too syllables or Pele because he's the only one called Pele.

    Still no correct answer.

    Name not ending in a vowel is too trite to count.

    Must be MY reason. :)

    OK. I'm out of the country for the next few days. So I'll give you the answer but inside a spoiler, so as long as you don't hit the quote button, you won't see it unless you really want to.
    The answer is that Pele is the odd one out.

    He was a footballer.

    The others are all members of the Seven Dwarfs in Portugese.
    Dunga = Dopey
    Feliz = Happy (not to be confused with Felix the famously useless goalkeeper in the 1970 World Cup winning team)
    Envergonado = Bashful.

    If I remember rightly the others were:
    Mestre=Doc
    Atchim=Sneezy
    Dorminocho= Sleepy

    And I just can't remember the portugese for Grumpy.

    Maybe it's just as well I'm leaving the country. ;)
