Quote of the Day
“People in today’s world want instant gratification. The guy’s coached nine games. We’re 2-7, not the results we’re looking for but at the same time we’ve lost six one-score games with the ball and a chance to win at the end. I gave him my vote of confidence when I signed him to a contract to be coach of the Raiders. That’s when I gave it to him. Rome was not built in a day.”
Raiders’ owner Mark Davis

Tuesday’s quiz
Butler Bulldogs played in the national title game in both 2010, 2011, when Brad Stevens was their coach. What league was Butler in back then?

Monday’s quiz
Hue Jackson coached the Browns during their 0-16 season in 2017.

Sunday’s quiz
Cleveland Browns went 0-16 five years ago, the NFL’s last winless team.

************************

Tuesday’s Den: Nobody asked me, but…….

Commanders 32, Eagles 21
— Washington converted 12-21 third down plays.
— Robinson ran for 86 yards and a TD.
— McLaurin caught eight passes for 128 yards.
— Joey Slye kicked four FG’s, three of them from 44, 58, 55 yards out.
— Only 2nd win for Washington in their last 11 games against the Eagles.

— This was first time all season Eagles trailed in the second half.
— Eagles had 4 turnovers; they had total of 3 in first eight games.
— Commanders ran 81 plays, Eagles 47.
— Philly scored TD’s on first two drives, only one on last eight.
— Philly has converted 55-107 3rd down plays this year.

— Washington ran 51 plays in the first half Monday night; by contrast, Saints ran 45 plays the whole game in Pittsburgh Sunday. Seattle ran only 50 plays the whole game against Tampa Bay.

— In their three post-bye games, Buffalo Bills have been outscored 33-12 in the second half, scoring no TD’s on 15 drives, with six turnovers.

— Baker Mayfield will start at QB for Carolina this week; PJ Walker has a sprained ankle. Sam Darnold will be the backup.

— Player of the Week in Mountain West football this week is San Diego State QB Jalen Mayden, who was 17-22/268 passing, with 2 TD’s vs San Jose State. He also ran the ball 13 times for 78 yards.

What makes this more interesting is that this summer, Mayden wasn’t listed in the top 5 of QB’s on the Aztecs’ roster, but he’s the man now for a team that has won four of its last five games. He threw six passes for San Diego State last year; good for him for hanging in there, instead of just transferring somewhere else.

— Ohio State WR Kamryn Babb caught a TD pass at the end of their game with Indiana last week; normally wouldn’t be a big deal, since it made the score 56-14, but this kid has endured four ACL operations, is a senior and has overcome a lot just to be out on the field.

His teammates elected him a captain; they went nuts when he scored the TD. A good moment.

— Texas Longhorns are 6-4 this year, 11-11 in two years under Steve Sarkisian. Longhorns fired the previous coach, Tom Herman, after he went 32-18 as head coach. Awkward.

— West Virginia fired their athletic director, which could be bad news for their football coach. Mountaineers are 4-6 this year, 21-24 in four years under Neal Brown, The natives are restless.

— Football fans at Mississippi State ring cowbells during home games, for whatever reason; the school bookstore sells cowbells- they sell an average of 200 a day on football weekends.

— Houston Astros just won the World Series, with the #9 payroll in baseball; they manage their payroll by signing lot of international players, whose bonuses are generally lower than players taken in the amateur draft in this country.

Framber Valdez made $3M this year.
Luis Garcia made $1,251,500
Cristian Javier made $749,100

Curious to see if they re-sign Justin Verlander this winter. They did give reliever Rafael Montero a 3-year deal for $34.5M this week.

— There is another Matt Ryan (not the Colts’ QB) in pro sports; Lakers have a Matt Ryan, who is averaging 4.7 points/game in 10 games, playing 12.2 minutes/game.

He played ball at three colleges- Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, Chattanooga, shooting 36.3% on the arc over four seasons.

Ryan gets his first NBA paycheck today; he is making $1.64M this year, but has to stick on the roster until January 10 to have the contract fully guaranteed. Not bad for a guy who recently worked as a delivery driver for DoorDash and worked at his grandfather’s business run out of a graveyard in White Plains, NY.

Shooting is marketable in the NBA; Ryan is 13-31 on the arc (41.9%) this year. He keeps that up, and he won’t be driving DoorDash anymore.

— Joel Embiid had a HUGE game Sunday; he scored 57 points, had 11 rebounds, 8 assists, 7 blocked shots as the 76ers beat Utah 105-98. He scored over half their points. 76ers were +25 while Embiid was on the court.

— Big East is playing Big 14 this week, in series of games:
DePaul 69, Minnesota 53— Blue Demons had 20 offensive rebounds.

Penn State 68, Butler 62— Nittany Lions made 11-24 on the arc, took only five foul shots the whole game (4-5). Jalen Pickett scored 15 points, had 9 rebounds, 11 assists.

— Northwestern State 64, TCU 63— Pretty big upset here; Horned Frogs led by 12 with 12:54 left in the game. TCU was a preseason top 25 team, but they beat Ark-Pine Bluff 73-72, are off to a slow start.

— Stetson 68, South Florida 67— Hatters have wins over Florida State, USF; solid start to the season for the Hatters, who play in the Atlantic Sun, which has 14 teams in it this year.

— Florida Atlantic 76, Florida 74— Another upset in the Sunshine State. Owls shot 21-45 on the arc in splitting a pair of games against SEC opponents Ole Miss/Florida.

— Big-time recruit DJ Wagner signed on to play basketball at Kentucky next year; his father Dujuan Wagner played for John Calipari at Memphis; his grandfather Milt Wagner was just hired as an assistant coach by Louisville.

— RIP to Leo Anthony Gallagher, 74, a comedian who passed away last week. His stage name was simply Gallagher; back in the 80’s, he was a regular on talk shows, with an act that usually included smashing a watermelon with a sledgehammer. People in the first couple rows at this shows would often wear ponchos, so the spray from the ill-fated watermelon wouldn’t get on their clothes.

Oddly, he graduated from college with a chemical engineering degree; you wouldn’t think that would lead to a career in comedy.

Back in my high school/college days, I was a big fan of stand-up comedy; Gallagher was one of the better ones. He was freakin’ funny. RIP, sir.

Quote of the Day
“I don’t have to defend myself. I am absolutely comfortable in who I am. I respect all those guys. Whoever has whatever negative opinion, I can assure you, it’s not gonna change who I am or what I believe I’m called to do. I have no idea, and I still don’t, how successful I’ll be, but we’re gonna work hard at it and I believe I can lead men and lead the staff. I’m excited about the opportunity.”
Colts coach Jeff Saturday, responding to criticism of his being hired by the Colts

Wednesday’s Den: Mid-week musings…….

College basketball notes from Tuesday:
— Michigan State 86, Kentucky 77, 2OT
Spartans made 23-27 on foul line.
Oscar Tshiebwe had 22 points, 12 rebounds off the bench.
Kentucky was +10 in 34o Tshiebwe played, -19 in 16:00 he sat out.

— Early season college basketball needs more games like this one.

Was excellent to hear Dick Vitale on the mike; glad his medical issues seem to have gone away. I admire his enthusiasm and energy.

— Kansas 69, Duke 64
Teams combined to shoot 6-40 on the arc.
Duke shot 35.8% from floor.
Duke had 8 assists on 24 baskets; Kansas had 21 assists on 31 hoops.

— Vanderbilt 89, Temple 87— Commodores win despite going 4-13 on foul line; Temple made 14-29 on the arc, but Vandy shot 55.6% inside the arc.

— Saint Louis 90, Memphis 84— Solid win for the Billikens, who were 27-36 on foul line.

— Appalachian State 61, Louisville 60— Cardinals are off to an 0-3 start, the only team in the last 40 years to start out 0-3, with three 1-point losses.
L66-67 vs Bellarmine
L72-73 vs Wright State
L60-61 vs Appalachian State

— Colgate 80, Syracuse 68— Colgate made 19-38 on the arc.

— Purdue 75, Marquette 70
Marquette led 58-49 with 9:54 left to play.
Purdue shot 62% inside the arc.

— Not a great night for the Pac-12:
Cal-San Diego 64, Cal 62
Prairie View 70, Washington State 59
San Diego State 74, Stanford 62
USC did beat Vermont……..by 2.

— If you like college basketball, I highly recommend getting ESPN+; it only costs a few bucks a month- they show lot of games.

While you were sleeping Monday night, I was watching the Yale-Hawai’i game on my phone, which ended after 2am. Good game; Yale won in overtime.

— Last five years, Xavier is 2-5 in the Big East basketball tournament; four of the five losses came in overtime, the fifth loss was by 4 points. Xavier is 2-0 this year under its new coach Sean Miller, who is also their old coach (120-47 from 2004-09).

— 10 years ago, Missouri jumped from the Big X to the SEC; I’m guessing they made a boatload of money on the move, but has it helped them on the field/court?

Their last four years in the Big X, Mizzou was 107-34 in basketball, 44-22 in conference games, making the NCAA tournament all four years. Since then, Tigers are 154-168, 69-115 in SEC games, making the NCAAs three times in 10 years. Not great.

In football, Missouri was 48-19 their last five years in the Big X, going 3-2 in bowl games. Since joining the SEC, Mizzou is 69-56 in football, 38-44 in league games- they’re 2-3 in bowls since joining the SEC.

Again, not great. Wonder what the boosters think of all this.

— With Loyola-Chicago moving in from the MVC, Atlantic 10 now has 15 teams, which is a bad number. Makes the conference tournament a little awkward.

— ACC has had 3+ players taken in the first round of the NBA Draft every year for the last 13 drafts.

— Five players who spent time in the G-League, before becoming NBA All-Stars:
Rudy Gobert
Khris Middleton
Dejounte Murray
Pascal Siakam
Fred VanVleet

Baseball stuff:
— Tyler Anderson gets a 3-year, $39M deal from the Angels.
— Anthony Rizzo gets a 2-year, $40M deal from Bronx.
— Joc Pederson (Giants), Martin Perez (Rangers) each took the $19.65M qualifying offer to stay with their current team.

— Word of the Day: Shenanigans— a mischievous or deceitful trick.
Synonyms: mischief, horseplay, nonsense

— The classic TV show M*A*S*H was based on a book written by Richard Hornberger, who was an Army surgeon during the Korean War. It took Dr Hornberger 12 years to write his book, another five years for someone to buy the rights to it.

Eventually, Dr Hornberger sold the TV rights for $500 an episode, $125,500 in all. Pretty good deal for CBS; M*A*S*H is one of the best TV shows of all time.

— Last three weeks, Chicago Bears have allowed either a defensive TD or a special teams TD; they’ve scored 29-30-32 points in the three games, but giving away points is a big reason why they lost all three of those games.

— Colorado State’s QB is Clay Millen, whose dad Hugh played nine years in the NFL, for four teams. Hugh Millen started 25 games in the NFL.

One of the cool things I’ve gotten to see in my life was July 1986, a free scrimmage in Anaheim with the Rams and Chargers. The starters played 7-on-7, then the rookies had a full contact scrimmage. There were about 25,000 people there.

Watching Dan Fouts throw a football was awesome, especially with no pass rush. Rams won their division the year before; this was just before they traded for Jim Everett, so things were generally positive with the fans, except the Rams seemed to have a different QB every year.

Rams had drafted Hugh Millen in the 3rd round that year, but that night in Anaheim, he broke his ankle during the scrimmage, which may have accelerated the Everett trade talks.

That was a fun week back in 1986; the scrimmage and also my first trip to Las Vegas. Deson’t seem like 36 years ago.

— Charlotte 49ers hired a new football coach Tuesday; 62-year old Biff Poggi, the associate head coach at Michigan. Poggi was a successful high school coach in Maryland for a long time before going to Michigan.

A graduate of Duke, Poggi began his career as a teacher before managing a successful hedge fund. He led Gilman School to 13 Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association conference championships.

I’ll admit that I’m biased, but I’ll say this; if you’re in your early 60’s and your name is Biff, you must be really, really smart. You think?!?!?!
