First Adam is probably best known as the Jewish guy in Saving Private Ryan.  Also in Dazed and Confused.  Wiki tells me he's in the TV show Fargo.

The second Adam is the creator of The Goldbergs sitcom with Jeff Garlin (from Curb) and the blonde lady from Reno 911.

Bill is a former pro wrestler and football player.

Easily Bill Goldberg for most fascinating.  A gigantic tough-talking professional wrestler/animal-rights crusader randomly emerges from a family of erudite, highly successful upper-middle class jews.

She was close.  Originally it was just going to be the Adams, but that seemed too limiting.  So I went to see what other Goldbergs most people would know so I could have a third option.  There ain't many.  I went with the wrestler because I'm almost positive he wouldn't win...and I thought Whoopie might and since it was really supposed to just be about the Adams....

What fired the idea was that I heard Adam, the first one, was getting pissed at all the people telling him how awesome his new show was and him saying thanks (thinking they were talking about Fargo I guess) and then the "fan" saying "yeah, The Goldbergs is the best new show on TV!".  I can totally see how that would get under your skin the 300th time it happens....but you shouldn't go to twitter about it.

I'm for Rube Goldberg. He even anticipated the selfie. Wink

How did I forget him? Cheesy

Fun fact: I managed to put a Rube Goldberg machine as an illustration for an academic paper I wrote during my Master's. Can someone guess what it was about?
