Joe, I think I understand that part of the riddle.
John Neun and George Burns were baseball players who both completed unassisted triple plays (3 outs). Pi = 3.14 (about 3). So the thing that is "between" them all is the number 3. This years game has a lot of 3's in it: 3 teams per alliance, 3x3 array of goals, tetras are a 3-dimensional shape that consist of triangles, you get 3 points for each tetra stacked on a goal, and there are probably more that I'm not thinking of at the moment.
The "amethyst colored glasses" part has something to do with the molecular structure of amethysts.

By the way, as I was shoveling snow this morning I think finally "GOT" part of the puzzle John Neun gave to that other guy. Are they facing eachother? In that way there would be Pi (Radians) between them.
No. Wrong again. I just reread the clue. He doesn't stay there is "Pi between You and Me" He says, "...there is something between Pi, You and Me"
I don't know... ...at least the Lexan tube puzzle is explained to my satisfaction
