"car" for engine and park is easy so he's specifying truck for a different reason

bummer

I agree with your observation though, For Park and Engine he can say car or vehicle. I agree with Fire and for the Ounce I feel like a ******.

Also IRTM did not pay attention at all our previous game :/

hmmm not sure about that other baseball one.

Millionaire because MLB players are rich?
Needle for steroids?
Olive because it is sorta shaped like a baseball?
Mexico because a lot of players are Latino?
Park because you might play baseball in one?

"Baseball" can't possibly be the best clue for millionaire and diamond.

I was in shock it wasn't "card." I'm glad there was no one around to wager with. I would have lost a considerable sum.

I think it is clearly park. Baseball 2 is a tough clue with card/diamond/park on the board. I would have gone the same way you did (diamond and card), because even if it's park, the other team was discussing park for truck, so we might have gotten it for free.

(They clearly are not going that way now, so I feel more comfortable bringing it up)

I agree, Nails. I didn't want to come out super strong for "park" until I heard from them.

I think baseball is a fine clue with "card" neutral - the only real danger is that I say card first, which obviously ends up being much worse.
