Quote of the Day
“We are seeing large media deals that have been made like the Big Ten and the SEC, which in many ways — and perhaps it’s an exaggeration — have created an existential crisis in many ways for Florida State University…….”
Florida State president Richard McCullough, explaining why the Seminoles will probably be jumping to a different league, sooner than later.
Thursday’s quiz
Aaron Rodgers was drafted in the first round of the 2005 NFL Draft, but what pick was he in the first round?
Wednesday’s quiz
San Diego is Rich Hill’s 13th team in the major leagues; he broke into the majors in 2005, with the Cubs.
Tuesday’s quiz
Steve Spurrier coached the Tampa Bay Bandits in the 1980’s USFL.
******************************************************
Thursday’s Den: Doing some thinking out loud…….
— Cubs 16, Reds 6— Cincinnati didn’t add pitching at the trade deadline, then they gave up 36 runs in the first two games after the deadline. Not good. Reds still lead the division by half a game, but they need to tighten up— they made four errors in this game.
— Texas 11, White Sox 1
Dylan Cease faced 16 hitters, threw 79 pitches; he only got five outs, giving up seven runs.
Corey Seager homered in his first at-bat off the injured list.
— New York 7, Tampa Bay 2– New York is 9-0 in Gerrit Cole’s starts if they lost their previous game; they’re 6-7 in Cole’s starts if they won their previous game.
— Royals 4, Mets 0
Kansas City has won five games in a row.
Mets had nine hits, but didn’t score; they were 2-12 with RISP, but neither hit scored a run.
— Astros 3, Guardians 2— Chas McCormick hit two more homers for surging Houston.
— Cardinals 7, Twins 3
Minnesota lost six of its last seven games, but still leads AL Central by two games over Cleveland.
Cardinals hit four home runs, led 7-0 in 3rd inning.
— Random stat: Dodgers’ Walter Alston was the winning manager in seven no-hitters, the most of any manager, ever.
— Movie of the Day: Leap of Faith (1992)— A traveling preacher and his entourage are stranded in a small town where he finds he can’t fool all of the people all of the time.
Steve Martin is the preacher; he is great in this. Debra Winger is his assistant, Liam Nissan plays the local sheriff, Meat Loaf and Philip Seymour Hoffman play part of his entourage.
I’ve been a big Steve Martin fan since I saw him on the Tonight Show back when I was a little kid; Buddy Hackett was guest host that night. He is a great comedian, but also an excellent actor, an underrated talent.
— College Football Trend of the Day: Since 2014, Cal Bears are 23-12 ATS as a road underdog.
— Mariners 6, Red Sox 3
Boston led 3-0 in sixth inning.
Julio Rodriguez had the go-ahead hit, also stole his 25th base.
— Braves 12, Angels 5— Rough start for Lucas Giolito in his new home; he’s allowed 12 runs in 9 IP in his first two starts for the Halos.
— Marlins 9, Phillies 8 (12)
Miami trailed 5-2 in 8th inning, 7-5 in 10th inning.
Marlins are 24-9 in one-run games.
Josh Bell went 4-5 with a home run in his Marlins debut.
— NFL is apparently considering flexing the Week 5 Jets-Broncos game to a Sunday night tilt, after Sean Payton’s comments about the Jets last week. They’d have to bump a Cowboys-49ers game out of primetime to a 4:25 start, which seems unlikely— Dallas gets big ratings.
— NFL is also considering changing the kickoff rules down the road, making kickoffs like the ones in the XFL, where the teams line up five yards apart, but no one can move until the kicker kicks the football.
This rule works well in the XFL; you get some decent returns, and fewer violent collisions.
— There is an NFL game on TV tonight, Jets-Browns from the Hall of Fame in Canton, OH, a virtual home game for Cleveland. Aaron Rodgers will be there, but he ain’t playing.
