Quote of the Day
“Joe Montana is still my man. Still my man. You say greatest quarterbacks ever, I’m still with Joe Montana. I’m not going with Tom Brady. … Listen, Tom Brady got all the rules on his side. You can’t touch him. You can’t touch him. If you hit him, if you breathe on him, they’re gonna throw a flag.”
Lawrence Taylor

Thursday’s quiz
Who played QB for the Raiders the first time they won a Super Bowl?

Wednesday’s quiz
Dick Vermeil coached the Eagles the first time they played in a Super Bowl.

Tuesday’s quiz
Richmond’s basketball team is known as the Spiders.

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

Thursday’s Den: Doing some thinking out loud……..

— NBA trade deadline is 3pm Thursday; there was a big trade made at 1:30am Wednesday night/Thursday morning, involving the Nets and Phoenix.

Phoenix gets:
Kevin Durant and TJ Warren

Brooklyn gets:
Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder
Suns’ 1st round draft pick in 2023, 2025, 2027, 2029.
(Yes, another 7th grader got traded. Chances are, the 2029 draft pick will be a player who is currently in the 7th grade).

Mat Ishbia just bought the Suns for $4B; he has tried/succeeded in making a big splash, quickly.

If you bought season tickets to the Nets, do you get a rebate after they traded away Durant and Kyrie Irving?

Dallas 110, Clippers 104— Irving scored 24 points in his Mavericks’ debut.

— From 2016-20, Houston Rockets went 217-101 under coach Mike D’Antoni, but they told him to take a hike after the Rockets went 28-23 in the playoffs those years.

Since then, the Rockets are 50-158. The only time they see the playoffs now is on TV. No bueno. Why exactly did they fire D’Antoni?

— When Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was in college (as Lew Alcindor) he was so dominant that they outlawed the dunk. Seriously. That is why he developed his sky hook shot, with was unstoppable in both college and the pros.

Speaking of college basketball……….
— Tulane Green Wave is 16-7, 9-3 in the AAC; they’re headed for their first winning season since 2013, maybe their first NCAA Tournament since 1995.

Ron Hunter is a very good coach; he went 221-179 at IUPUI, 171-95 at Georgia State, and now is doing his thing with the Green Wave. None of those schools have a great basketball tradition.

Four of Tulane’s last five wins, including three of their last four wins, went to overtime.

San Diego State 63, Utah State 61— Aztecs led 44-28 at halftime, hung on to win despite scoring only 19 second half points. San Diego State now leads Nevada/Boise State by a game in Mountain West. Utah State is in 4th place, meaning they could meet the Aztecs in semifinals of the conference tournament.

West Virginia 76, Iowa State 71— This game took forever to play, ton of whistles; WVU led by 15 early on, but Iowa State led by 3 with 9:45 left to play. Mountaineers went 26-31 on the foul line; they’ve won four of their last five games. WVU gets 23% of their points on the foul line, #8 in the country.

Alabama 97, Florida 69— When they bring their “A” game, Alabama is the best team in the country, but they’re #254 in experience, #282 in continuity. Can they put together six wins in a row in March? Was their 93-69 loss at Oklahoma a fluke or a red flag?

Vanderbilt 66, Tennessee 65— Vols missed front end of a 1-and-1 with 0:07 left, then Vandy hit an open 3-pointer from the right corner as time expired for the upset. Tennessee was 2-3 on the foul line for the whole game; in their last three games, they scored 54-46-65 points.

Since 1997, Rick Barnes has been to four Sweet 16’s, two Elite 8’s, but no Final Fours. Is this the year he finally gets there?

Missouri State 61, Belmont 59— Bruins lost three of their last four games, are now tied for 4th in the wide-open MVC. Belmont and Murray State both moved up in class when they bolted to the MVC from the Ohio Valley Conference this year. Sometimes it is better to the big fish in a smaller pond.

George Washington 107, Richmond 105, 2OT— Spiders led by 5 with 1:07 left in regulation; they’ve now lost five of last six games. GW made 14-29 on the arc, still needed two overtimes to win. A-15 is going to be a one-bid league for first time since 2002.

Samford 70, Mercer 69 OT— Samford is 17-9, 11-2 in SoCon; they’re trying to get back to the NCAA’s for first time since 2000. Furman, Samford and NC-Greensboro are the Big 3 in this league right now. Another one-bid league that willl have an excellent conference tournament.

Bryant 87, Albany 62— Great Danes have lost eight in a row, are in last place in a bad America East. Two years ago, Albany fired a coach who made the NCAA Tournament five times in his 20 years leading the Great Danes. That guy is a good coach. They replaced him with a coach who is 19-38 in his two years on the job.

Maybe it was the athletic director who needed to be fired.

— Tuesday night, Butler beat St John’s 68-66, ending their 5-game skid after trailing by 10 points in the second half. St John’s appeared to tie the game at the buzzer after an OB under play, but after a lengthy replay review, they said the shot came just after time ran out.

I watched the replay 5-6 times, couldn’t tell what the right call was; would’ve preferred they allowed the basket and let the teams play overtime. St John’s coach Mike Anderson was not happy when they waved off the basket.

— Our update on college basketball referee John Higgins:
January 24— Penn State @ Rutgers
January 25— Utah State @ San Diego State— Long plane ride for a back/back
January 26— Utah @ Oregon State
January 28— California @ Stanford
January 29— Michigan State @ Purdue— Day game after long plane ride.
January 30— Baylor @ Texas
January 31— Kansas State @ Kansas

February 1— Northern Iowa @ Drake- A double overtime game!!! Eight games in nine nights, and a double overtime game on the 9th night.
February 2— Wisconsin @ Ohio State— Ohio State coach Holtmann was ejected with 0:27 left in first half, after a charging call. Buckeyes have lost eight of their last nine games; tensions are running high.
February 4— Oklahoma @ West Virginia
February 5— Penn State @ Nebraska
February 7— Nevada @ New Mexico
February 8— San Diego State @ Utah State— There was a scuffle in this game;

He’s worked 13 games in 16 days, 68 games since November 7, which is 68 games in 95 days. Not bad for a 54-year old guy.

— 24 of the 53 guys on the Kansas City Chiefs’ roster weren’t on the Chiefs last year, which is really impressive, re-tooling their roster on the fly like that.

— Eagles were last in the Super Bowl five years ago; they’ve got eight players left from that team.

— Tampa Bay Rays drew only 1.1M fans to their home games last year, their worst attendance since 2003; they’re going to sell some tickets to their home games for $10 this season, to try and get more people thru the turnstiles.

— Toronto Blue Jays signed SS Dante Bichette to a 3-year contract extension; financial details weren’t released, but Bichette won’t be going to arbitration with Toronto.

Friday’s 6-pack

College hoop teams with the best 2-point FG% on offense:
60.2%— Marquette
59.5%— Indiana State
59.4%— Furman
58.8%— Cornell
58.8%— Eastern Washington
58.0%— Southern Illinois

Quote of the Day
“If I had a choice of having my scoring record remain intact for another hundred years or spend one afternoon with my grandchildren, I’d be on the floor in seconds stacking Legos and eating Uncrustables.”
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Friday’s quiz
Which college’s basketball team is known as the Gauchos?

Thursday’s quiz
Ken Stabler played QB for the Raiders the first time they won a Super Bowl.

Wednesday’s quiz
Dick Vermeil coached the Eagles the first time they played in a Super Bowl.

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

Friday’s Den: Random stuff with the weekend here……..

— Armadillo World HQ had a small crisis Thursday; my modem crashed, which meant no Internet, no TV (I have YouTube TV now). After over an hour on the phone with Spectrum customer service, I dashed off to the Spectrum store in the mall near my house, and after 3.5 hours of chaos, I had a new modem, Internet service and things were good again.

Kudos to the Spectrum people for good customer service, and for restoring my sanity.

— NFL named this year’s Hall of Famers:
Ronde Barber
Don Coryell
Chuck Howley
Joe Klecko
Darrelle Revis
Ken Riley
Joe Thomas
Zach Thomas
Demarcus Ware

Happy for Don Coryell, whose offenses changed the game; very disappointed that Torry Holt didn’t get in, but no receivers got in this year. Holt will get into the HOF, hopefully soon.

With Klecko/Revis getting in, have to think Jets are playing in the Hall of Fame Game.

— Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are making a movie dealing Nike’s pursuit of Michael Jordan; Affleck is playing Phil Knight, which is fine. Damon is playing Sonny Vaccaro, which is going to be hard to process.

Vaccaro kind of looks like Jerry Tarkanian did, a balding older guy who looked nothing like any movie star, except Joe Pesci.

— San Diego Padres signed P Yu Darvish to a 6-year, $108M contract extension. Ownership in San Diego is serious about winning.

— Only 82 college football players declared to leave school early for the NFL Draft, down 40% from only three years ago; are NIL payments keeping players in college longer?

— They played the semi-finals of the Caribbean Baseball Series Thursday:
Dominican Republic 8, Mexico 3
Venezuela 7, Colombia 5


Robinson Cano bats second for the DR squad; they play the host team Venezuela for the title Friday night at 6:30 on ESPN+.

— NBA trade deadline passed Thursday afternoon; it is smart that they have their All-Star break the week after the trade deadline, giving teams and coaches time to regroup after re-shuffling their rosters.

An anonymous league executive called Russell Westbrook “a locker room vampire” which is a pretty big indictment of him. Having talented players is important, but cohesiveness is also a big deal. I’ve never associated vampires with good chemistry.

San Antonio Spurs are having their 4th straight losing season; they’re 14-41 this year. At what point is it time to move on from Gregg Popovich? He is 74 years old, his team shows very little chance for improvement in the near future.

Golden State traded C James Wiseman to Detroit; they got Kevin Knox and five 2nd round draft picks in return. Warriors also acquired Gary Payton in exchange for five 2nd round picks.

2nd round draft picks got shuffled around like beaded necklaces during Mardi Gras in New Orleans. Popped into my head that Manu Ginobili was a 2nd round pick— he turned out OK.

— Oklahoma/Texas are going to play one more season in the Big X, before they bolt for the bigger bucks of the SEC.

There are rumors that the Pac-12 is looking to add SMU, because SMU is in Dallas, which has a big TV market. You figure San Diego State would also join the Pac-12; would they poach Boise State and UNLV too?

— Way back when ESPN first started, one of the first conferences to let ESPN air their games was the Sun Belt. Was watching Louisiana-Southern Miss Thursday night; pretty good league, good guards. ESPN should give the league one game a week on ESPNU or ESPN2.

Oral Roberts 95, St Thomas 88— Tommies were up 10 in first half; they made 16-39 on arc, but fall to 16-11, 7-7 in Summit League, while Oral Roberts is 13-0 in conference play. ORU is starting four seniors and a junior; they’re probably going to win a game in the NCAA tourney.

Purdue 87, Iowa 73— 7-foot-4 Zach Edey only took 7 shots for Purdue; they’re going to have a game in NCAA’s where they’re struggling and they’re going to need someone to point out that Edey needs to assert himself, because he is 7-4 and can be unstoppable, when he puts his mind to it. He’s a good kid; would he speak up when the time comes?

It wouldn’t make Edey selfish; it would be Edey doing his job, being a dominant freakin’ player when that is what his team is going to need to get through a difficult game.

North Texas 82, UAB 79, 2OT— Fierce struggle between evenly-matched league rivals; UNT was 23-25 on foul line, UAB 5-10, Referees let the kids play in this game, which understates how much they swallowed their whistles. As the season goes on and on, players will need to play through contact more and more.

LMU 78, Saint Mary’s 74 OT— Gaels jumped out to a 16-0 lead; they led by 5 with 0:45 left in regulation, but lost this road game, right after they had beaten Gonzaga and opened a 2-game lead in WCC. LMU made 10-19 on the arc; they’ve won five of their last seven games.

UCSB 75, Long Beach State 72— UCSB starts four seniors; Long Beach doesn’t play any seniors. Santa Barbara shot 59.5% inside arc; they trailed by 5 early in second half- they lead Cal-Irvine by a game atop the Big West standings.

— Our update on college basketball referee John Higgins:
January 24— Penn State @ Rutgers
January 25— Utah State @ San Diego State— Long plane ride for a back/back
January 26— Utah @ Oregon State
January 28— California @ Stanford
January 29— Michigan State @ Purdue— Day game after long plane ride.
January 30— Baylor @ Texas
January 31— Kansas State @ Kansas

February 1— Northern Iowa @ Drake- A double overtime game!!! Eight games in nine nights, and a double overtime game on the 9th night.
February 2— Wisconsin @ Ohio State— Ohio State coach Holtmann was ejected with 0:27 left in first half, after a charging call. Buckeyes have lost eight of their last nine games; tensions are running high.
February 4— Oklahoma @ West Virginia
February 5— Penn State @ Nebraska
February 7— Nevada @ New Mexico
February 8— San Diego State @ Utah State
February 9— USC at Oregon

He’s worked 14 games in 17 days, 69 games since November 7, which is 69 games in 96 days. He is 54-years old.

Saturday’s 6-pack

College hoop teams that force the most turnovers:
26.4%— Iowa State
25.6%— UNLV
25.0%— UCLA
24.8%— VCU
24.8%— Stephen F Austin
24.7%— Missouri

Quote of the Day
“If Tyree Appleby doesn’t have an NIL deal with @Applebees, what is the point of NIL?”
Zachary Pereles of CBS Sports, talking about the Wake Forest star

Saturday’s quiz
What player ran the opening kickoff of a Super Bowl back for a touchdown?
Hint: His team lost that game

Friday’s quiz
Cal-Santa Barbara’s basketball team is known as the Gauchos.

Thursday’s quiz
Ken Stabler played QB for the Raiders the first time they won a Super Bowl.

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

Saturday’s Den: 12 of my favorite Super Bowls………

13) Steelers 31, Rams 19:
— Even though they lost, it was first time Rams made it to a Super Bowl.
— Rams led 19-17 after third quarter; they were 10.5-point underdogs.
— This was Pittsburgh’s fourth Super Bowl title in six years.

12) Giants 17, Patriots 14:
— The thought of a New England team going 17-0 was nauseating.
— Subway sandwich chain has been sued by people who claim the “tuna” in Subway’s tuna subs is something other than tuna.
— I used to eat lot of Subway subs, until they hired Bill Belichick to do commercials, then I switched to Jersey Mike’s. Much better subs.

11) Chiefs 23, Vikings 7:
— NFL Films’ highlight film of this game made KC coach Hank Stram a household name.
— “Keep matriculating the ball down the field, boys” NFL Films struck gold miking the coach.
— This was the last game before AFL/NFL merged; Chiefs were a 12-point dog.

10) Raiders 32, Vikings 14:
— Minnesota made the Rams’ life miserable in 70’s playoff games, so this was a good result.
— This was my senior year in HS; I played in a CYO basketball league where the games were played in a Jewish Community Center. Go figure.
— We had a game scheduled at same time as the Super Bowl; our refs didn’t show up until after the football game. I sat in a lounge and ate chips/drank soda watching the football game. Needless to say, I was fairly useless during the basketball game.

9) In his ten Super Bowls, Tom Brady’s team scored one first quarter TD; this was the first Super Bowl where Brady’s team led after the first quarter (1-4-5). He won seven of the ten games SU.

8) Patriots 13, Rams 3
— Game was 3-3 in 4th quarter; the Rams being in this game made it great for me.
— This was Sean McVay’s second year as Rams’ coach; before that, Rams had 13 consecutive losing seasons. Winning is more fun than losing.

7) Only twice has the team that lost a Super Bowl won the big game the next season:
— Dallas lost Super Bowl V to the Colts, beat Miami the next year.
— New England lost Super Bowl LII to Philadelphia, won the Super Bowl the next year.

6) Saints 31, Colts 17:
— Saints were in the NFL 21 years before they played a playoff game.
— Someone made a commercial of Saints fans’ reactions at home parties when Tracy Porter ran back a pick-6 74 yards to clinch the game for New Orleans. It is a great commercial.

5) Chiefs 31, 49ers 20:
— Whenever the 49ers lose, I’m probably pretty happy.
— I’ve never heard anyone say they dislike Andy Reid, and I know someone who hates Ray Romano. Reid won his first world title in his 21st year as a head coach.
— 49ers led this game 20-10 after third quarter.

4) Eagles 41, Patriots 33:
— Nick Foles is 29-29 as a regular season starter, 4-2 in playoff games.
— He’s played for six teams in 11 years, but will always be a Philly legend.
— Foles caught a TD pass on a trick play to give Philly a 22-12 halftime lead.

3) Steelers 27, Cardinals 23:
— Arizona lost, but getting Cardinals here put Kurt Warner in the Hall of Fame.
— Warner threw a 64-yard TD pass to Larry Fitzgerald with 2:37 left to put Arizona ahead.
— Big Ben won it with a 6-yard TD pass to Santonio Holmes with 0:35 left.

2) Rams 23, Bengals 20:
— Stafford-to-Kupp with 1:25 left was the game-winning score.
— Bengals led 20-13 midway thru third quarter.
— Sean McVay is the youngest coach to win a Super Bowl.
— Second year in row the host team won Super Bowl; before that, it had never happened.

1) Rams 23, Titans 16:
— 73-yard TD pass from Warner to Bruce with 1:54 left put Rams ahead.
— Mike Jones tackles a Titans’ WR on 1-yard line as time ran out.
— Warner capped off a storybook season, throwing for 414 yards.
— 13 years later, then-Titans’ coach Jeff Fisher was hired as coach of the Rams.
