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

Hall of Famer Kurt Warner, Northern Iowa, undrafted
Hall of Famer Jerry Rice, Mississippi Valley, 16th pick
Cooper Kupp, Eastern Washington, 3rd round (69th pick)
Hall of Famer Harold Carmichael, Southern, 7th round (181st pick)

— College football is adding a 2:00 warning for each half; teams will also have coach-player radios in the helmet of one player on the field at a time, just like the NFL.

Papale’s son Vinny is a wide receiver for the Memphis Showboats in the UFL.

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

Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday…….​

— RIP to former NFL QB Roman Gabriel, who passed away Saturday at age 83.
I became a Rams fan back in 1966, when I was 6 years old; Gabriel was the Rams’ QB for the first seven years I rooted for LA- they went 63-28-5 with Gabriel starting during those years.
Distinctly remember him hitting Jack Snow on an 80-yard TD pass to spur the Rams to a 34-10 win over the Colts in the 1967 series finale, giving the Rams a division title. No idea why the Rams and Colts were in the same division, but they were.
Bigger than most QB’s back then, Gabriel was hard to sack; he was MVP of the NFL in 1969, when the Rams started the season 11-0. He later played five years for the Eagles.
RIP, sir.

— Knicks’ guard Josh Hart is the great nephew of Elston Howard, the outstanding catcher who played 15 years in the big leagues in the late 50’s/60’s.

— So far this season, Mets have outscored opponents 47-14 in innings 7-9.
Mets put C Francisco Alvarez (sprained thumb) on the IL.

— Mookie Betts has reached base safely 14 of 23 times he’s batted in first inning this year.

— Twins pitcher Bailey Ober has had an odd start to his season:
March 31, he gave up 8 runs in 1.1 IP at Kansas City. No bueno.
In three starts since then, Ober has allowed 2 runs in 17 IP, allowing only 11 baserunners.

— Blake Snell’s first three starts for the Giants:
11.2 IP, 23 baserunners, 15 runs allowed; 0-3 with an 11.57 ERA.

— Famous birthdays for April 21st:
Dick Green, 83
Al Bumbry, 77
Tony Danza, 73
Jesse Orosco, 67
Andie McDowell, 66
Tony Romo, 44
Rodney Stuckey, 38
Joc Pederson, 32

— Movie of the Day: The Cincinnati Kid (1965)- An up-and-coming poker player tries to prove himself in a high-stakes match against a long-time master of the game.
Steve McQueen is the up-and-coming player, Edward G Robinson the older guy. Karl Malden is another player in the game; a very young Ann Margret is also in the movie, along with Rip Torn, Cab Calloway and Joan Blondell.
One thing about older movies; people smoked like chimneys in them. Lot of cigarettes.

— Nationals 5, Astros 4 (10)
Washington tied game with two runs in 9th inning.
Joey Meneses had the walk-off hit in 10th inning.
Astros fall to 7-15.

— Mets 6, Dodgers 4
Starling Marte hit a 3-run homer.
Mets have won six games in a row.

— Tampa Bay 2, New York 0 (10)
Eflin allowed only 3 baserunners in 6 IP.
Aaron Judge was 0-4 with four K’s; he’s hitting .179.

— Brewers 12, Cardinals 5
Brewers improve to 13-6 on the young season.
Bottom 4 guys in Milwaukee’s lineup were 8-17, with 6 runs scored.

— Giants 7, Diamondbacks 3
Patrick Bailey was 4-4 with a homer, three RBI

— Phillies 9, White Sox 5
White Sox’ first hit Friday was in 7th inning; Saturday, their first hit was in 8th.
Castellanos was 3-3, with two runs scored, two RBI
