Saturday’s 6-pack
NFL teams that are worth the most (according to Forbes):
$6.5B— Dallas Cowboys
$5B— New England Patriots
$4.85B— New Jersey Giants
$4.8B— Los Angeles Rams
$4.2B— Washington Redskins
$4.175B— San Francisco 49ers

Quote of the Day.
“He was one of the greatest Astros ever. When he was pitching, we knew that we were going to get a ‘W.’ I didn’t get too many balls hit to me in the outfield when he pitched because he was so dominating.”
Jose Cruz, talking about the late JR Richard, who passed away this week

Saturday’s quiz
What city hosts the Sun Bowl every college football season?

Friday’s quiz
In the early 1970’s, the Chicago White Sox had an artificial turf infield and natural grass outfield.

Thursday’s quiz
Green Bay beat Kansas City 35-10 in the first Super Bowl.

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

Saturday’s Den: Clearing out a cluttered mind……..

13) USA 87, France 82:
— Americans win gold medal for 4th Olympics in a row.
— France was 18-29 on foul line, which hurt some.
— USA was +9 in turnovers; Durant scored 29 for the champs.

12) Angels 4, Dodgers 3 (10):
— Amazingly, Dodgers are now 1-12 in extra innings.
— Angels have used 7 different starting pitchers the last seven days.

11) Buffalo Bills signed QB Josh Allen to an eye-opening, 6-year, $43M a year contract, the 2nd-biggest contract in the league, behind Patrick Mahomes.

Bills are 23-9 the last two years, first time in last 20 years they’ve had consecutive winning years, and Allen is a huge reason why, so now he gets paid.

10) Funny that Allen and Aaron Rodgers are two of the best QB’s in the NFL, but neither one had scholarship offer coming out of college— both played JC ball before they played in D-I.

Go figure.

9) If you wager on preseason NFL games, keep in mind that the Rams’ QB room is in disarray right now. Matthew Stafford banged his thumb on a helmet this week, has been sitting out of practice mostly and then backup John Wolford had an emergency appendectomy Friday, and will be out for a few weeks.

No way Stafford is going to play much in preseason; Devlin Hodges and Bryce Perkins will be under center in exhibition games. Something to think about. Wolford should be ready for the season opener, if needed, but he won’t be taking any hits between now and then.

8) Oakland A’s got very bad news Friday; RF Ramon Laureano is out for the rest of this year and part of next year, after getting an 80-game PED suspension.

7) San Diego Padres are 1-7 in their last eight games, where they game-winning run scored in the last three innings. Cincinnati is creeping up on them in the Wild Card race.

6) Trevor Bauer’s leave was extended until August 13, but it is leave and not a suspension, so he is still getting paid, and he makes huge money ($28M a year).

5) Giants trailed 4-0 in ninth inning at Arizona Thursday; they tied it in the 9th, won it in the 10th, ending a streak where they had lost 800 games in a row (yes, 800) when they trailed by 4+ runs in 9th inning. Last time they won a game like this one? 1993.

4) So far this season, relievers have pitched 41.8% of innings in the big leagues, up from 32.5% in the 90’s.

Only 14.9% of starting pitchers have thrown 100+ pitches in games this season, as recently as 2010, roughly half the starting pitchers threw 100+ pitchers in their starts.

3) The average NFL team is now worth $3.5B, that’s billion, with a B.

2) Four weeks from today is the first big Saturday for college football; summer is flying by, which means it has been fun, but damn, wish winter went by as fast as summer does.

1) I’ve been an A’s fan since I was 5 years old; remember fondly Oakland winning three World Series in a row, from 1972-74— Ray Fosse was the catcher in ’73-’74 and has been their TV analyst for the last 35 years. His calm demeanor has helped keep me sane during tense games late at night more times than I’d like to remember.

This week, Ray Fosse stepped away from broadcasting so he could deal with the cancer he’s been battling for the last 16 years. I had no idea; he’s a tough guy, man. The outpouring of love and support from A’s fans and Bay Area media has been overwhelming. The man is loved.

All I can say is this: get well soon, Ray Fosse. Kick cancer’s butt; we miss you and are rooting like hell for you.

Sunday’s 6-pack
NFL teams that are worth the least (according to Forbes):
$2.27B— Buffalo Bills
$2.275B— Cincinnati Bengals
$2.4B— Detroit Lions
$2.6B— Cleveland Browns
$2.625B— Tennessee Titans
$2.65B— Arizona Cardinals

Quote of the Day.
“I remember Coach Vermeil saying, ‘Do your job better than anybody else. Surround yourself with good people, and I think I’ve done that all through my career in the National Football League. Thank you to my guys that played with me for 14 years in the NFL. They helped me not only on the football field, but also in the community, people like Harold Jackson, Ron Jaworski, and Mike Quick.”
NFL Hall of Famer Harold Carmichael

Sunday’s quiz
Which college team did Dick Vermeil coach before he moved to the NFL?

Saturday’s quiz
El Paso, TX hosts the Sun Bowl every college football season.

Friday’s quiz
In the early 1970’s, the Chicago White Sox had an artificial turf infield and natural grass outfield.

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

Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a busy sports Saturday

13) This is Hall of Fame weekend for the NFL; Jimmy Johnson got inducted last night; he only coached nine years in the NFL, winning two Super Bowls in Dallas:

1989-93— Dallas 51-37, won two Super Bowls
1996-99— Miami 36-28 in regular season, 2-3 in playoffs
Total— 89-68, in nine years.

When I think of Jimmy Johnson, I think of college football, but he’s been on the FOX pregame show on Sundays for a long time now, and that helped get him in.

12) But if that resume gets him in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, then this coach should get in, too:

1976-82— Team A, 54-47, 3-4 in playoffs (they were 39-81-6 the 9 years before he got there)
1997-99— Team B, 25-26, 3-0 in playoffs (they were 36-76 the 7 years before he got there)
2001-05— Team C, 44-36, 0-1 in playoffs (they were 23-25 the 3 years before he got there)
He won a Super Bowl with Team B, lost a Super Bowl with Team A
Total— 126-114, in 15 years

Bringing two horrendous franchises into the Super Bowl (and winning a title) is just as impressive as winning two titles with the same team.

If you know me, you already know who the second coach is— the great Dick Vermeil.

11) Aside from his friends/family, the person who is happiest about the huge contract Josh Allen signed in Buffalo? Lamar Jackson’s agent, because the price tag in Baltimore just went up.

10) Phillies 5, Mets 3— Phils led 5-0 in last inning, brought in reliever Mauricio Llovero to close it out, but the first three batters he faced all hit home runs. He became just the 2nd player in the last 100 years to face 3+ batters in a game, and have them all homer.

9) Oakland A’s won in extra innings Wednesday/Friday; their pitchers didn’t walk anyone in either game, only the second time that has happened in the last 100 years (Twins, 2008).

8) Red Sox starting pitchers finished the 5th inning in only 4 of their last 17 games.

7) Tony LaRussa is old school: White Sox starting pitchers have thrown 100+ pitches 36 times this year, more than any other team.

6) Bronx Bombers are 39-21 in games decided by 1 or 2 runs, but they’re still on the outside looking in on the playoff race, though the race is very close, with 50+ games left. They’re 22-28 in games decided by 3+ runs. Last 7-8 weeks of the season are going to be very interesting.

5) Mentioned yesterday how the Dodgers are 1-12 in extra innings, one of the worst records ever in extra innings.

— 1969 Montreal Expos went 0-13 in extra innings, their first year in existence (52-110).
— 1982 Minnesota Twins were 1-13 in extra frames- they finished 60-102.

52-110? 60-102? Explain to me how Dodgers are 1-12 in extra innings, but are 66-45 overall.

4) 44% of at-bats in the big leagues this season have lasted 3 or fewer pitches.

3) Congrats to the Australian basketball team, which beat Slovenia 107-93 to win the bronze medal, Australia’s first-ever medal in basketball.

Lot of really good ballplayers have come from Australia to play college ball here- they lost the bronze medal game by a point in 2016, so this had to make lot of people happy down under.

2) Bruce Springsteen’s daughter won a silver medal at the Olympics in an Equestrian event.

1) NBA Summer League starts today; guys who are all GREAT basketball players working their butts off just to get invited to a training camp. I’ve been to the summer league several times; if you’re in Las Vegas, it is a solid day’s entertainment, and it is air conditioned.

Every high school player in America should watch these games, then go outside and work on their skills, because working on your skills is what will get you paid someday.
