Start with the source
Choose categories such as scoring, championships, streaks, games, and team milestones and attach a date to each fact.
Write down the exact detail that controls the result: Football Records Every Trivia Fan Should Know. If the source is incomplete, mark the item for review rather than filling the gap from memory.
Work through the decision
Use a record notebook or app note with the source and last checked date.
For example, A record that was correct last season may change, so date context is part of the fact. Use the example to understand the workflow, not to promise the same outcome in a different situation.
Use the result carefully
Treat current-record questions as review items.
The common mistake is to state a current record without a date or source. Keep the original record, assumptions, and review date together so the result can be corrected when the source changes.
