Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack
Some of the better giveaway days at Citi Field for 2015 (these are all Saturdays)
-- May 2 (Nationals): Jacob deGrom garden gnome
-- May 16: (Brewers) Mets fedora (color unknown)
-- June 13: (Braves) David Wright replica jersey
-- July 11 (Arizona): Juan Lagares bobblehead
-- August 29 (Red Sox); 1986 World Series bobblehead
-- October 3 (Nationals): Mets fleece blanket
**********
Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud........
13) Lebron James played 85 minutes in Cleveland’s first two games, which is way too many; he was down to 35 in Tuesday’s loss in Portland, then played 42 minutes in Utah last night, where the Cavaliers lost 102-100.
Coach Blatt is going to have to learn how to dispense minutes to preserve his starters for the long season, especially James. Season is 82 games and as many as four playoff series, which could be 28 more games.
High drama at the end in Utah last night; Gordon Hayward hit a fadeaway from deep on the right wing as the horn sounded, dropping the Cavaliers to 1-3.
12) Cavaliers made their first ten shots in Portland, five of which were 3-pointers, then shot 28% the rest of the game; they need to find a dependable third scorer to supplement James/Kevin Love’s production.
11) Speaking of James, did the Miami Heat lower its ticket prices once he left? Its fairly obvious they won’t be as good; somehow I doubt they lowered prices, but hopefully they did.
10) FOX Sports 1 basketball analyst Bill Raftery filed for trademarks to his pet phrases "Onions" and "With a kiss" last week, protecting the use of the words as Raftery's during sports broadcasts and on clothes.
9) How did Sacramento let Isaiah Thomas get away? The lefty Washington alum is pretty good and is helping Phoenix bigtime so far. Not like the Kings have so many good guards that they couldn’t use the guy.
8) If you’re in Las Vegas December 17-20, the Jerry Tarkanian Classic will be played, a terrific high school basketball tournament with lot of really good players. I was there the last two years; its worth your time, if you’re in Vegas that week. Most of the games are at Bishop Gorman HS, I think.
7) Next big Cuban baseball star to come here will be 3B/OF Yasmany Tomas, who is said to be a stocky slugger being pursued by both the Phillies and Red Sox. Philly could use the money AJ Burnett just turned down to sign Tomas, who is 24 years old.
6) There are reports the Eagles were souring on Nick Foles even before he got hurt; Philly turned ball over 16 times in their last five games (-9) prompting rumors Eagle brass weren’t happy with him, all of which makes Mark Sanchez’ first Philly start Monday night a little more interesting.
5) Alfonso Soriano retired this week; he is one of six players in history with 400+ doubles, 400+ homers and 250+ steals in his career. Wasn’t much of a fielder, but was a very dangerous hitter.
4) Houston Texans pulled the plug on Ryan Fitzpatrick and will start Ryan Mallett at QB in Week 11; they have this week off. This was inevitable, with Mallett having been acquired from New England for a draft pick- they have to see what they have to see if they want to sign Mallett going forward.
3) Dodgers signed A’s assistant general manager Farhan Zaidi, a Berkeley-educated economist, as their next GM. Zaidi grew up in the Philippines, attended MIT as an undergraduate and, after getting his doctorate at Cal-Berkeley, decided to try to break into baseball after reading Moneyball. Hey, I've seen Moneyball the movie 25 times; can I get a job with the A's?
Not surprising, but it looks like the Dodgers’ new direction under Andrew Friedman will be heavily weighted towards analytics.
2) Timberwolves 98, Nets 91-- Minnesota led 17-2, then Nets went on a 34-14 run, but Wolves closed game on 18-5 run. Rubio had 14 points, 12 assists, 8 rebounds as all five Minnesota starters scored in double figures.
1) I know they do it because they can charge more for those tickets, but it is weird how close some fans sit to the team benches in NBA arenas. At Lakers' home games in Staples Center, the opposing coach often stands right in front of Jack Nicholson. If a guy goes lunging out of bounds for a loose ball, he might knock over people's drinks who are sitting right there. You don't get that in other sports.

See spot. See spot bet: This week's best spot bet opportunities
Spot bets are classic handicapping practices that have proven profitable no matter what sport you're betting. Whether it's a team looking past this week's opponent, one coming off a hard-fought victory, or a rough patch of schedule, bettors can find value picking their spots. Covers Expert Ben Burns points out his favorites:
Lookahead spot
The fact Tony Romo even made the trip to London is baffling to some. Dallas jumps the pond to play Jacksonville in London with a laundry list of injuries, and not just to its star quarterback. The defensive corps have been dropping like flies the past two weeks and this overperforming stop unit doesn’t have much depth behind the first teamers.
Limping into Week 10’s neutral-site matchup with the Jaguars on a two-game losing streak, and with the bye week on the horizon, the Cowboys could get caught looking ahead to some time off to lick those wounds. Books that have gone ahead and posted a line for this London game, regardless of Romo's status, have Dallas as high as a touchdown favorite. If he does play it could go as high as Cowboys -10.
Letdown spot
The Florida Gators haven’t had much to play this season. But when it came time to lay the lumber to SEC rival Georgia, UF rolled the Bulldogs in the “World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party” last weekend. The Gators rushed for 418 yards in the 38-20 win as 11.5-point underdogs in Jacksonville, and may have saved head coach Will Muschamp’s job for the time being.
Florida doesn’t have much left on the schedule in terms of motivational factors, besides a season-ending chance to spoil Florida State’s bid for a spot in the College Football Playoff. In the meantime, the Gators waddle into Nashville all fat and cocky, tabbed as 14.5-point road favorites versus Vanderbilt Saturday. The Commodores have been a hot bet, covering in five of their last six games.
Schedule spot
The Dallas Mavericks will be breaking out the Advil and ice packs after their upcoming stretch of schedule, playing three games in four nights. While most teams handle these busy spots with moderate success, few are as ancient as the Mavs. Heading into the 2014-15 season, Dallas is tied with San Antonio as the oldest team in the league, with an average age of 28.7.
The bulk of that youth is coming off the bench while starters like Dirk Nowitzki, Tyson Chandler, Monta Ellis and Jameer Nelson are all old as dirt by NBA standards with 53 combined years of experience between them. Those greybeards could be showing their age by the time this grueling span is over. The Mavericks are at Portland and Utah Thursday and Friday, then back on the court hosting the Heat Sunday.

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Our NFL's bottom 5 and top 8.........
32) Raiders—Common thread between bottom four teams on this list are QB issues; Carr looks like he’ll be fine, but playing a rookie has its drawbacks. Oakland has played better the last four weeks, under interim coach Sparano.
31) Jaguars—Another rookie QB, another team that has been more competitive of late, but 1-7 is 1-7. They’re in England this week; NFL cheated their fans out of seeing the popular Cowboys to move this game to London.
30) Jets—Fire everyone as soon as the season ends. Coaches, QB’s, GM, janitors, secretaries, everyone. Start over; that way it’ll be easier to win in the long run.
29) Titans—First road start this week for young Mettenberger against Baltimore team smarting after consecutive division losses.
28) Buccaneers—Offense has legit excuse in that OC Tedford had to leave before season really started because of heart issues, so they’re getting outcoached badly on that side of ball since HC Smith is defensive guy and couldn’t step in and take over.
8) Dolphins—This time LY, Miami was in hell, its season ruined by the Incognito bullying scandal; Joe Philbin had wanted to cut Incognito the previous spring but was overruled, which is probably why the owner fired the GM after last season. Now Philbin has his team rolling and headed towards the playoffs.
7) Eagles—Mark Sanchez makes his first Eagle start this week at home on Monday Night Football. If he plays well, it’ll be another nail in the 2014 Jet coffin- they couldn’t wait to dump the guy two years ago.
6) Colts—Have a vast array of offensive weapons, but Luck has taken lot of hits this season; they’re screwed if he gets hurt. RB’s Richardson/Bradshaw are suspects, but they do have lot of weapons at WR/TE.
5) Packers—How healthy is Rodgers’ hamstring? He tweaked it at end of Saint game two weeks ago. Interesting game against reeling Bears Sunday night; both teams are coming off byes. Chicago lost four of its last five games.
4) Steelers—Roethlisberger is first QB EVER to throw 12 TDs in two-game span; now they go on road to face reeling Jets. Pitt lost only previous game on artificial turf this year, in Week 2 at Baltimore.
3) Broncos—Raiders can’t catch a break; they play Denver this week with Broncos reeling after their beatdown in Foxboro.
2) Patriots—Healthy Gonkowski makes a big difference in their passing game; still amazing how Patriots don’t have any good WRs. Edelman was a QB in college.
1) Cardinals-- Life is all about opportunity; Bruce Arians had to wait for a head coaching job until he was in his 60’s, now he is making the most of it. There are people out there saying Arizona is lucky; I say they’re getting the most out of what they have, despite a lot of injuries.
Some football trends for this weekend........
-- Alabama covered once in its last seven games as a road favorite.
-- Washington State is 8-4 as a road underdog under Mike Leach
-- Indiana covered in three of its last fifteen conference games.
-- Since 2007, Louisiana Tech covered 10 of 14 as a road favorite.

Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack
-- Nets 110, Knicks 99-- Carmelo Anthony was 5-20; it is still early, but Knicks do not look any better this year than they were last year.
-- Hornets 122, Hawks 119, 2OT-- Lance Stephenson made his first 3 of season at buzzer to win game; he is now 1-6 from arc this year, 32.2% for his career.
-- Grizzlies 91, Thunder 89-- Memphis moves to 6-0; fans in Oklahoma gave their team a round of applause after this loss- they're really undermanned right now.
-- Bulls 118, 76ers 115-- Three of five Philly starters weren't even drafted.
-- Six of first eight NBA games to end Friday night were decided by 3 or less points, or in overtime. Quality of play in the NBA has gotten better.
-- Arizona Cardinals signed Carson Palmer to a 3-year, $50M contract extension.
**********
Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Things I'm looking for this weekend
13) TCU-Kansas State is a big game in the Big X; Bill Snyder covered 13 of his last 16 games as a road underdog, winning SU at Oklahoma last month. Can Wildcats win at TCU?
12) If you were a casual football fan in Florida looking to buy Jaguar season tickets, and the NFL took the Dallas game this season and put it in London, what does that tell me? It tells me the Jaguars are going to move, either to London or LA. Too bad, but for this week it is London. Interesting to hear Deion Sanders/Michael Irvin say Sunday night that Tony Romo had to play in this game, based on how bad Brandon Weeden was against the Cardinals. No mention of Romo’s health.
11) Alabama-LSU is in Baton Rouge and it is always good theater. Crimson Tide covered once in its last seven games away from home. Its amazing how many games Les Miles has won in Baton Rouge with sub-standard QBs (other than Mettenberger). This game is most always a defensive slugfest.
10) Dolphins-Lions is a surprising big game this week. Detroit pulled two games out of its hat before their bye. Miami has played better and better each week, crushing the Chargers last week. Tannehill’s running (he was a WR at Texas A&M for two years) has bolstered the Miami offense.
9) Total yardage in LY’s Notre Dame-Arizona State game was 427-424, a 37-34 Irish win. This is only second true road game this season for Notre Dame, who gave up 39 points to Navy’s option attack last week. ASU’s offense is way more diverse. This should be an interesting game.
8) How healthy is Aaron Rodgers? He tweaked his hamstring in New Orleans two weeks ago. Packers are 5-0 on grass, 0-3 on carpet. Bears lost four of last five games, as natives continue to grumble about their QB.
7) Charles Barkley is going on a hunger strike until the Lakers win; he better be careful or he’s going to wind up looking like a 6-4 version of Manute Bol. The Lakers are terrible.
Unrelated note: in 1991, I gave up soda/pie/candy after the Rams lost a game to the Raiders, saying I wouldn’t have sweets again until the Rams won another game. That win came……11 months later, in Week 2 of the following season. Felt like a freakin’ idiot, but lost 30 pounds.
6) Good thing to watch with the Cavaliers’ development as a team: in their loss at Utah Wednesday, the Jazz passed the ball 421 times, Cleveland 269.
Kyrie Irving is learning how to play in this style of play; remember, during his one year at Duke, he didn’t play in any ACC games because he was hurt. Cleveland will be good eventually; its going to take a while for them to become more cohesive.
5) Mark Sanchez’ first Philly start is on Monday night against Carolina; no pressure there, in front of those easy-going Eagle fans. Sanchez will be an interesting study; if he does well, will Iggles part ways with Nick Foles?
4) Jim Mora is a Washington alum who from sound of it, wouldn’t have minded becoming the Huskies’ coach back when they hired Steve Sarkisian. Now Mora takes his UCLA Bruins to Seattle to play Chris Petersen’s Huskies; this will be one of the weekend’s better games.
3) Ben Roethlisberger threw 12 TD passes in his last two games, first NFL QB ever to do that. Now Pittsburgh visits Swamp Stadium to play the struggling Jets, who haven’t won since Opening Day. There might be more Steeler fans than Jet fans there; Terrible Towels travel well.
2) Ohio State-Michigan State is a rare Big 14 game that might be watchable over an SEC game; Buckeyes have been crushing teams since they lost to Va Tech early on. MSU’s Mark Dantonio might be the most underrated coach in America. This will be a very good game.
1) Saints are 4-4, but they’re 3-0 at home. 49ers need to win in Superdome to avoid falling to 4-5. Loser of this game is going to have lot of ‘splaining to do next week.
-- Nets 110, Knicks 99-- Carmelo Anthony was 5-20; it is still early, but Knicks do not look any better this year than they were last year.
-- Hornets 122, Hawks 119, 2OT-- Lance Stephenson made his first 3 of season at buzzer to win game; he is now 1-6 from arc this year, 32.2% for his career.
