Quote of the Day
“After many years of receiving professional help, not gambling, and being in recovery from my addictions, I’m now able to sit still, be present in the moment and live each day with an inner calm and peace. I still have a lot of cleaning up to do with those I love the most but I’m doing it slowly and as best I can.”
Phil Mickelson

Thursday’s quiz
Which city hosts the Sun Bowl every December?

Wednesday’s quiz
The TV show Frasier was set in Seattle.

Tuesday’s quiz
Carolina Panthers have played in/lost two Super Bowls; Jake Delhomme, Cam Newton were their QB’s in those two games.

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

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

— Chicago Bears have lost 12 games in a row, dating back to last year; things are getting tense in the Windy City.

QB Justin Fields characterized his play as “robotic”; when he was asked why, he answered:

“You know, could be coaching, I think. At the end of the day, they are doing their job when they are giving me what to look at, but at the end of the day, I can’t be thinking about that when the game comes. I prepare myself throughout the week, and then when the game comes, it’s time to play free at that point. Thinking less and playing more.”

Fields is 5-22 as an NFL starting QB; if he doesn’t win some games soon, he won’t have to worry about playing like a robot— he won’t be playing.

— Bears’ defensive coordinator Alan Williams quit so that he can focus on his health; no idea what that means specifically, but hopefully he feels better soon.

— Of the 32 NFL quarterbacks who started last week, they represent 27 different colleges; Alabama is the only program with three alumni in that group (Tagovailoa, Mac Jones and Bryce Young).

— There are 61 Australian punters scattered around the country in college football this season.

— Standings in the AL West, with 11 days left in the regular season:

Astros 85-68
Mariners 84-68
Rangers 84-68

Right now, Seattle/Texas are tied for the last Wild Card slot, a game behind Toronto. Going to be a hell of a last week; a deserving team is going to get left out of the playoffs.

— In the National League, Cubs lead Miami by half a game for the last Wild Card slot, with the Reds another half-game behind that. Arizona is 1.5 games ahead of the Cubs.

— Word of the Day: Bupkis— this word means absolutely nothing; it comes from the Yiddish word bobkes, meaning nonsense or nothing.

— Football Trend of the Day: Los Angeles Chargers are 8-17-7 ATS in last 32 games with spread of 3 or fewer points.

— So far this season, NFC teams are 6-0 against AFC teams.

— Last time the Orioles made the playoffs was 2016; from what I can tell, only guy who was in the 2016 starting lineup for those Orioles and is still in the major leagues is Manny Machado.

— There are 37 unbeaten teams left in college football.

— Astros 2, Orioles 1
Baltimore led 1-0 after seven innings behind P Kyle Bradish.
Jeremy Pena tied the game with an RBI double in the 8th
Mauricio Dubon won the game with a walk-off single to right field.

— There is a tight end with the Miami Hurricanes who is in his 8th year of college eligibility; he had been sidelined for three years with a broken ankle, and he recently petitioned the NCAA for a ninth year of eligibility.

His career totals include 20 catches for 197 yards and four touchdowns; maybe he just really, really likes going to college for free.

— LA Rams basically gave RB Cam Akers to the Vikings; the teams exchanged a 6th/7th round draft pick in 2026 in exchange for Akers, that’s it.

— Diamondbacks’ OF Corbin Carroll is the first rookie in MLB history to hit 25 home runs and steal 50 bases in a season; granted the new rules make stealing bases easier, but 25-50 in still a damn good achievement.

Quote of the Day
“I’m honestly just kind of speechless right now. He gave all of us brand-new cleats. Most of us really needed it too because I was giving out some of my (old) cleats to the boys, but Marcus Mariota pulled through and gave us some cleats and we just wanted to thank him for all he’s done for us and everything he’s accomplished.”
Kuola Watson, a high school football player in Hawai’i

Friday’s quiz
Where did 49ers QB Brock Purdy play his college football?

Thursday’s quiz
El Paso, TX hosts the Sun Bowl every December.

Wednesday’s quiz
The TV show Frasier was set in Seattle.

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

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

49ers 30, Giants 12
— Giants have been outscored 63-6 in first half of their three games.
— Big Blue averaged only 3.5 yards/pass attempt.
— Under is 17-9 in their last 26 road games.
— Daniel Jones is 23-34-1 as an NFL starter.
— San Francisco scored 30-30-30 points in winning first three games
— SF is 8-1 ATS in their last nine games as a home favorite.
— 49ers outgained Giants 441-150.
— Giants were 3-12 on third down, 49ers were 9-16.

Georgia State 30, Coastal Carolina 17
— Georgia State won first three I-A games, scoring 41-35-30 points.
— Last 3+ years, Panthers are 10-4 ATS as a road underdog.
— Last 4+ years, Chanticleers are 9-13 ATS as a home favorite.
— Georgia State ran ball for 182 yards, converted 9-15 on third down.

— Broncos visit Miami Sunday; Dolphins’ new defensive coordinator is Vic Fangio, who was Denver’s head coach from 2019-21, going 19-30 in three seasons, when he didn’t have Elway, Manning or even Russell Wilson as his QB.

— Which reminds me, NFL coordinators make a boatload of $$$, don’t deal with the media much, their job is just football. I’m wonderful if coordinators are ever happy just to do that job, as opposed to becoming a head coach, where the job is more diverse, the $$$ is bigger, but maybe the job isn’t as much fun and is more aggravating.
Probably not often, but I’m guessing it has happened once or twice.

— Looks like the qualifying offer for potential free agents in baseball will be around $20.5M this winter; teams offer the potential free agent $20.5M and if he turns it down, that team gets a compensatory draft pick when he signs with a different team.
Of the last 124 players in this situation, only 13 took the qualifying offer.

— Summer flew by; NHL training camps opened this week.

— Word of the Day: Oblivion— A state of unawareness of what’s going on around you.

— Football Trend of the Day: Last 5+ years, Clemson is 30-13-1 ATS in ACC games.

— First two weeks in the NFL, new head coaches have lost nine of ten games.

— Carolina Panthers’ QB Bryce Young hasn’t practiced the last couple days, looks like Andy Dalton will get the start Sunday in Seattle.

— NC State plays at Virginia Friday, where Wolfpack QB Brennan Armstrong will see a lot of old friends; Armstrong played for Virginia the last three years, starting 30 games.

— Mets’ OF Tim Locastro has an unusual stat line; in his career, Locastro has been hit by 42 pitches, but he’s only walked 36 times.
