Quote of the Day

Unnamed college basketball coach, talking about Memphis

Monday?s quiz
Atlanta Falcons are 0-2 in Super Bowls; who did they lose to?

Sunday?s quiz
Mike Shula was football coach at Alabama before Nick Saban.

Saturday?s quiz
Since 2010, Cleveland is the only NFL team hasn?t won a Week 1 game; they tied the Steelers in last year?s opener.

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

Monday?s List of 13: Wrapping up a sports weekend

13) For 19 of the last 21 years, the Indianapolis Colts have had Peyton Manning/Andrew Luck as their starting QB; they made the playoffs in 15 of those 19 years, going 13-14 in playoff games and playing in two Super Bowls, winning one.

Both QB?s missed a full year with injury; Colts were 4-12, 2-14 those two seasons.

12) Hard to keep a secret these days: Bears-Colts were playing in Indianapolis Saturday night when the news broke about Andrew Luck retiring; would be interesting to know who leaked the news. Made it extremely awkward with Luck standing on the sidelines while fans are checking their phones for information.

Around midnight, I?m watching TV and a commercial runs for NFL Sunday Ticket, and it is Luck and a Colts? fan wearing a blue #12 jersey. Awkward.

Later on, I?m watching a replay of the Broncos-Rams game and for a few minutes thats all they were talking about on the broadcast; Rams starters who weren?t playing were on the sidelines looking at their phones and talking, undoubtedly about this very surprising news.

(Yeah, I know; I watch too much TV)

11) I have one question about the Colts; do they retain Luck?s rights, and if so, for how long? Luck turns 30 next month; what if he decides in January that he misses football and he would like to play again? What happens then?

Luck is married to a woman who was a gymnast in Europe; what if he decides if traveling the world with her isn?t stimulating or fun enough? It is a fair question.

10) My point here is that I?m wondering if Luck could sit out a year or two, then declare himself a free agent when Tom Brady retires and go play for New England. If the Colts retain his rights then that would eliminate that hideous scenario.

9) Circa Sports in Las Vegas shifted their Colts? odds this way:
Colts to make playoffs: from YES -180 → NO -215
Colts to win AFC: from +700 → +2100

Colts to win Super Bowl:
From YES +1500 → YES +4500
From NO -2800 → NO -7800

8) Hawai?i 45, Arizona 38? Great ending at 2:20am Sunday morning to this exciting game in paradise; Arizona QB Tate scrambled 30+ yards trying to score the game-tying TD on the last play of the game, but was tackled on the 1-yard line as time ran out.

Arizona drove the ball 81 yards in 0:51 to try and tie the game, but they needed 82 yards.

7) Baseball stuff:
? Indians put 3B Jose Ramirez (hand) on the IL.
? Giants 3B Pablo Sandoval (elbow) is out for the year.
? Arizona put OF David Peralta on the IL.
? Cubs put P Derek Holland (wrist) on the IL.

6) Detroit Tigers recently had a 58-game stretch where they didn?t win consecutive games; since 1907, that is the 9th-longest streak in the major leagues.

5) One thing that was drummed into my head watching the Cardinal-Viking game Saturday; Minnesota has a depth problem at cornerback. Viking TV guys were doing the game and they mentioned it a lot. When home TV guys criticize the home team, you know there?s a problem.

4) Underrated weird baseball thing; Dodgers C Russell Martin has pitched in two games this year when LA had the lead, 18-5 and 14-1. Is their pitching staff that overworked?

3) Miami Marlins vs Philly this season: 9-7
Miami Marlins vs rest of NL East: 11-36

2) Remember Warrick Dunn, the running back for the Buccaneers?

Dunn?s mother was a New Orleans police officer who was shot/killed in the line of duty when Dunn was in high school. He?s used his platform as an NFL star to pay for the construction of 145 houses for single moms. 145 houses is a lot of money raised/donated.

1) This was SuperContest weekend at the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas; they got over the 2,000 mark in contestants, at $1,500 a pop. First place is expected to be over $1.5M? you pick five NFL games a week against the spread.

Other casinos also have contests; Golden Nugget has one where you pick seven games a week, but they can be college or pro games. Circa also has a contest.

If you like football and you like to gamble, a football weekend in Las Vegas should definitely be on your bucket list.

Quote of the Day
?He was like smiling at the end. That?s what helped me gain clarity and understand the situation, seeing him smile. I wish him the best. He knows that and we?ll talk longer than the days of either of our football careers. You know, he seemed happy and that?s all that really matters.?
Colts? QB Jacoby Brissett, talking about Andrew Luck

Tuesday?s quiz
Who was the Falcons? coach the first time they played in the Super Bowl?

Monday?s quiz
Atlanta Falcons are 0-2 in Super Bowls; they lost to Denver, New England.

Sunday?s quiz
Mike Shula was football coach at Alabama before Nick Saban.

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

Tuesday?s List of 13: Nobody asked me, but??..

13) NFL scouting isn?t easy; front office types make big money, with their decisions largely deciding whether teams win or lose.

With that in mind, here are QB?s taken in the 2012 NFL Draft:
Round 1 (1st pick): A. Luck ? retired, played 86 games
1 (2): Robert Griffin III- Ravens? backup
1 (8): Ryan Tannehill ? Titans? backup
1 (22): Brandon Weeden ? out of football
Round 2 (57): Brock Osweiler ? out of football

3 (75): Russell Wilson ? Super Bowl champ
3 (88): Nick Foles ? Super Bowl MVP
4 (102): Kirk Cousins ? Vikings? starter, makes $28M a year

Undrafted: Case Keenum? Redskins? starter
Kellen Moore- Cowboys? offensive coordinator

12) Golfers Dustin Johnson/Lucas Glover tied for last at the TOUR Championship Sunday; they both went home wth a check for $400,000. Pretty solid consolation prize.

11) Robbie Ray threw five shutout innings in Arizona?s 5-2 win in Milwaukee Sunday; he faced 21 batters, threw 103 pitches, which is an awful lot for a guy who didn?t allow a run. Usually the average pitches per batter is 3.6 or 3.7, not 5.0+.

10) Major League ballfields need more 8-foot high outfield fences; the most exciting play in baseball is an outfielder trying to rob the hitter of a home run.

9) Off the top of my bald head, I?m thinking that the Broncos, Colts, Vikings will all be bucking the NFL?s pass-happy trend and will try to run the ball more this season.

Vic Fangio and Mike Zimmer are defensive coaches; defensive guys like to run the ball to protect their defense. Indianapolis is breaking Jacoby Brissett in as the new QB; they?ll try and lighten his load by depending on their improved offensive line and moving the ball on the ground.

8) Remember the movie Ferris Bueller?s Day Off and the kid with the Detroit Red Wings? jersey who was Ferris? friend? Haven?t seen that actor in 33 years that I know of, but he showed up on my TV in the HBO series Succession, which is about a horrendous bunch of rich people.

He wears a suit now, instead of the Gordie Howe jersey.

7) Baseball stuff:
? A?s DFA?d OF Nick Martini, brought up OF Seth Brown from AAA.
? A?s also put OF Stephen Piscotty (ankle) on the IL.

6) Why would FOX hire Urban Meyer as a studio analyst? The man has no personality, seems incapable of humor. He was awful analyzing games on ESPN. Don?t understand this.

5) I wonder if dogs enjoy having their pictures taken as much as it looks like they?re enjoying it.

4) Kansas City Chiefs signed QB Matt Moore to back up Patrick Mahomes; Chad Henne broke his ankle last weekend, so KC needed a solid backup, and Moore is that.

3) Over the last 25 months:
? Baltimore Ravens are 12-0 in exhibition games, Atlanta is 0-12.
? Ravens are 19-14 in regular season/playoffs; Atlanta is 18-16.

Some teams just try harder to win preseason games.

2) We talk about this too much now: ?If I ain?t startin?, then I?ll be departin??..??

Sophomore QB Jake Haener wasn?t going to be Washington?s starter this year, so he will now transfer. Haener is from Danville, CA; his mom and grandfather both went to college at Washington, but he will leave the Huskies, sit this year out and be eligible to play wherever he goes in both 2020 and 2021. Hard to impress NFL scouts by sitting on the bench.

Washington?s new QB is Jacob Eason, who bolted to Seattle because he didn?t win the starting job at Georgia (sound familiar?)

1) Turns out that OJ Simpson is in a fantasy football league, and he drafted Andrew Luck an hour before the retirement story broke. Whoops.

-- Home teams went 9-6 ATS
-- The 'over' went 10-5

-- Home teams are 108-66 SU
-- Road teams are 85-84-5 ATS
-- The 'under' is 87-85-2

Team Betting Notes

Atlanta (7-22 SU, 14-15 ATS)
showed that they intend to be a tough out down the stretch, even if they are out of the mix for a playoff spot. The Dream rattled off two victories in three games in the past week, including three straight covers. The 3-0 ATS run is one short of a season best, and they're 5-1 ATS across the past six outings. Total bettors like the Dream, too, as the 'over' is 7-1 across their past eight contests.

Chicago (18-11 SU, 19-9-1 ATS)
has posted three straight wins heading into the new week. That's just one short of a season best for a win streak. The Sky is hot against the number lately, too, going 9-2 ATS across the past 11, and 10-3 ATS over the previous 13 outings. The 'over' is also on a 9-1 run acros the past 10.

Connecticut (20-9 SU, 12-17 ATS)
suffered a loss in L.A. to kick off a three-game road trip. They're still 4-1 SU across the the past five, although the Sun are having trouble against the number. Connecticut is just 2-5 ATS over the past seven, and 3-8 ATS across the past 11 contests.

After a thre-game winning streak, Dallas (9-20 SU, 14-15 ATS) has dropped three in a row, and they have failed to cover in any of the outings, too. Total bettors have been flying with the Wings, though, as the 'over' is 5-1 across their past six heading into the new week.

Indiana (10-19 SU, 12-16-1 ATS)
reached double-digit victories with a stunning 63-54 win in Seattle, snapping an 0-4 ATS skid. They're also just 2-7-1 ATS across the past 10 outings. The Fever have covered in back-to-back games on just three occasions this season, so watch them heading into the new week.

Las Vegas (19-11 SU, 11-19 ATS)
have dropped two in a row for the first time since May 31-June 2, and both mini skids have involved Connecticut. They're 0-3 ATS across the past three and 7-14 ATS across the past 21. The 'over' has cashed in seven in a row dating back to a push on Aug. 3.

Los Angeles (18-10 SU, 15-12-1 ATS)
has rattled off three straight victories and covers on their home floor after an 0-2 SU/ATS road trip on Aug. 14-16. The Sparks have won 11 straight on their home floor since a setback to the Mystics on June 18. They're also 6-1 ATS over the past seven at home.

Minnesota (15-15 SU, 16-13-1 ATS)
has bounced back with a pair of wins after a three-game skid, and they have covered in back-to-back games for just the second time since mid-July. Total bettors are also loving the Lynx, as the 'over' is 6-1 across the past seven outings.

New York (9-20 SU, 10-18-1 ATS)
was humbled in D.C. by 29 points on Sunday, and they have dropped 10 of the past 11 games overeall. They're also 1-9 AST over the previous 10 outings. The over is an impressive 4-1-1 over the past six, and 6-2-2 in the previous 10 outings.

Phoenix (13-15 SU, 15-12-1 ATS)
finds themselves in a strange spot, fighting for their playoff lives. While they're 3 1/2 games ahead of the Fever for the No. 8 spot with two weeks to go, it's unusual to see the Mercury way down in fifth place so late in the season. The Mercury are just 2-5 SU over the past seven outings, although they are a solid 9-3 ATS across the past 12 contests.

Seattle (15-14 SU, 15-13-1 ATS)
haven't looked like the team which won the WNBA title last season. They're 3-6 SU across the past nine outings, and 4-5 ATS during the impressive span.

Washington (21-8 SU, 17-11-1 ATS)
is not showing any signs of letting up, and the Mystics might be the odds-on favorites to win the WNBA title at this point. They have won six of the past seven, and 11 of the past 13, and they're hot against the number, too. The Mystics have posted a 5-1 ATS mark across the past six, while also going 8-3-1 ATS over the past 12 contests. They're latest win, a 101-72 rout of visiting New York, was their third triple-digit scoring performance in the past four games on their home floor.

LAS VEGAS ACES AT INDIANA FEVER (+7, 161)

There?s no rest for the weary when the Aces come to Indiana to take on the Fever Tuesday night. Las Vegas is playing its third game in five nights, all of which coming away from Sin City.

"We're a tired basketball team right now, but the league doesn't stop,? Vegas head coach Bill Laimbeer told the media after the Aces? loss at Minnesota on Sunday. ?So, we need some practice time, we need a little bit of rest, but unfortunately, we're still on the road and we have more games, and we have to find it."

The Aces, who average 80.6 points per game on the road this season, managed just 77 in the loss to the Lynx, including only 18 points in the first quarter. Las Vegas has been one the fastest-starting teams in 2019, putting up over 21 average points in opening frames, but that number has dipped to 18.8 points per first quarter on the road.

The Fever don?t budge in the opening 10 minutes, allowing a league-low 18.5 first-quarter points this season, including allowing Seattle just 14 points in the opening quarter in the Fever?s road victory over the Storm on Sunday. Offensively, Indiana takes a while to get going, netting an average of 16.7 points in the first quarter inside Bankers Life Fieldhouse ? another WNBA low.

With a tired visiting team dragging their Nikes and a stingy host in the first frame, bettors should brace for an uneventful opening 10 minutes of tonight?s game.

PREDICTION: Under first-quarter 40.5


LOS ANGELES SPARKS AT WASHINGTON MYSTICS (-6.5, 163.5)

The headliner of Tuesday?s WNBA odds board is a West-versus-East clash between the Sparks and Mystics, two teams fighting for playoff positioning and a possible first-round bye in the postseason.

The total for this matchup opened 161 and immediately jumped to 163.5. And why not? Los Angeles and Washington are two of the top 3-point shooting teams in the league, with rosters loaded with offensive standouts.

However, if L.A.?s win over Connecticut on Sunday was any indication, the intensity level among playoff contenders is starting to rise, which means tougher defense. The Sparks and Sun played a physical game and the final score fell Under the 156.5-point total. The same could be said for the Mystics' meeting with Chicago on Friday, which also stayed below the 174.5-point total ? the highest Over/Under number of the 2019 WNBA season.

And while known for their scoring - Los Angeles ranked No. 4 and Washington ranked No. 1 - these clubs have leaned on defense to get the job done over the past month, with the Sparks holding foes to 75.7 points per game (second lowest) and the Mystics limiting opponents to 77.1 points per outing (fourth lowest) in August.

PREDICTION: Under 163.5

Sunday?s picks: 2-0
Season to date: 66-42-1

August 28, 2019
By The Associated Press


WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) Brittney Griner had 29 points and 14 rebounds, Leilani Mitchell added a career-high 29 points and Phoenix beat the New York Liberty 95-82 on Tuesday night, moving the Mercury a step closer to the playoffs.

Phoenix's magic number for clinching a playoff spot was reduced to one. The Liberty (9-21) were eliminated from postseason contention.

Diana Taurasi, who was playing her second game since returning from a hamstring injury, had only two points, missing all seven of her shots. She did have 10 assists and four rebounds for the Mercury (14-15).

LYNX 93, SKY 85

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Sylvia Fowles had a season-high 25 points and 12 rebounds, moving into third on the WNBA career rebounding list, and Minnesota beat Chicago to claim its ninth straight playoff berth.

Chicago guard Courtney Vandersloot also set a league record, breaking her single-season assists record on an inbounds pass to Diamond DeShields early in the third quarter. Vandersloot had five assists in the first quarter to tie her mark of 258 and she finished the game with 10.

Odyssey Sims had 23 points and eight assists for Minnesota (16-15), which swept Chicago this season.

Cheyenne Parker scored 22 points for Chicago (18-12).

MYSTICS 95, SPARKS 66


WASHINGTON (AP) - Aerial Powers scored 20 points, Elena Delle Donne added 14 and first-place Washington beat Los Angeles for its eighth straight home win.

Washington made six 3-pointers in the first quarter for a 33-22 lead and had nine at the break. The Mystics finished 11 of 35 from distance.

Natasha Cloud scored 15 points, Emma Meesseman had 12 and Ariel Atkins added 10 for Washington (22-8).

Candace Parker and Chelsea Gray each scored 12 points for Los Angeles (18-11).

FEVER 86, ACES 71

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Teaira McCowan had 24 points, 17 rebounds and five blocks to lead Indiana past Las Vegas.

McCowan became the first WNBA rookie with 20-plus points and 15-plus rebounds in back-to-back games.

Mitchell finished with 16 points, Candice Dupree had 13 and Tiffany Mitchell scored 12 for Indiana (11-19).

A'ja Wilson had 18 points and eight rebounds and Kelsey Plum added 17 points for Las Vegas (19-12).

SUN 89, STORM 70

SEATTLE (AP) - Alyssa Thomas had 22 points and 11 rebounds for her seventh double-double, Courtney Williams scored 17 points and Connecticut beat Seattle.

Connecticut (21-9) is a game behind first-place Washington. Seattle (15-15) has clinched a spot in the playoffs for a chance to repeat as champion.

Jonquel Jones added 10 points for Connecticut, which is 7-8 on the road this season.

Jewell Loyd scored 18 points for Seattle, which has lost four of five.

Thursday?s 6-pack

How Nevada casinos made their money in July:
$10.5M? sports betting
$32.2M? roulette
$39.3M? craps
$77.1M? baccarat
$87.2M? blackjack
$307.1M? penny slots

Quote of the Day
?Just because you?re sitting behind a microphone broadcasting a game does not make you a journalist. It makes you a broadcaster. I think there?s a difference. That might seem a little quaint as well, but I think with the term journalist, you?ve had some actual training, and that there is at least a theoretical canon of ethics, and you?re there to tell the truth and let the chips fall where they may? Even the best team broadcasters in any particular sport wouldn?t necessarily be journalists.?
Bob Ley

Thursday?s quiz
Which (retired) quarterback has started the most games for the Los Angeles Rams?

Wednesday?s quiz
Lovie Smith was the Chicago Bears? coach last time they played in a Super Bowl.

Tuesday?s quiz
Dan Reeves was the Falcons? coach the first time they played in the Super Bowl.

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

Thursday?s List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud??..

13) Monday, a courageous soul in Las Vegas wagered $33,000 on the Colts (+7) in Week 1 against the Chargers. That gambler has lot of faith in Jacoby Brissett.

12) New England Patriots made two trades for offensive linemen Wednesday, addressing their need for depth on their front line.

11) Cubs 10, Mets 7? Chicago pounded Noah Syndergaard for eight runs in first two innings.

10) This is a little weird: Eagles backup QB Josh McCown will be on the sidelines at Myers Park HS in Charlotte every Friday night this fall as an assistant football coach, in addition to playing for the Eagles on Sundays, and practicing with the team during the week. McCown plans to fly to rejoin the Eagles on Friday night/Saturday morning each week.

9) Life for a marginal big league pitcher: Astros? pitcher Cy Sneed has been called up from AAA/sent back to AAA five times in the last 48 days. Lot of frequent flyer miles.

8) Back in 2000, David Glass bought the Kansas City Royals for $96M; he is expected to sell the ballclub soon, with the price expected to be a little over $1B. Thats billion, with a B.

7) Baseball stuff:
? Dodgers? 3B Justin Turner was suspended for a game for making contact with an ump.
? Giants DFA?d 2B Scooter Gennett.

6) Obscure stat of the day, from Christopher Kamka: Lou Piniella hit 102 career home runs, most ever by a player who never hit two home runs in a game.

5) Perk to being an NBA player: Myles Turner and Brook Lopez acted as roadies for Fleetwood Mac Tuesday night in Sydney, Australia? that must have been fun.

4) More and more, you hear NFL-types talking about how teams holding joint practices is more productive than exhibition games. The practices are over a 3-4 day period and starters can get 80+ good reps in different situations, and against other starters.

In coming years, we?ll likely see only two preseason games a year, and more joint practices.

3) Jeremy Lin signed a deal to play basketball in China this winter.

2) Indianapolis Colts now have $56.6M in salary cap space, $19.6M more than any other team in the league (Houston is 2nd).

1) Raise your hand if you?ve heard this before; USC QB Jack Sears will enter the transfer portal and will play elsewhere in 2020-21, as a graduate transfer, because he lost the starting job to sophomore QB JT Daniels. Apparently Sears is going to graduate from USC in only three years. Because of that, he can still be on the Trojans? roster this year, and play elsewhere in 2020.

Gray ties Sparks' franchise mar with 7 3s in win over Fever
August 29, 2019
By The Associated Press


INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Chelsea Gray scored a career-high 30 points and tied a franchise record with seven 3-pointers, leading the Los Angeles Sparks to an 87-83 victory over the Indiana Fever on Thursday night.

Gray scored 20 points, including five 3-pointers, in the Sparks' 33-point third quarter that erased a nine-point halftime deficit and gave them a four-point edge heading into the fourth quarter.

The Sparks (19-11) went up by 11 points early in the fourth quarter. The Fever closed within two with 29.1 seconds remaining before Gray clinched it with an 18-foot jumper with 6.9 seconds left.

Teaira McCowan had 24 points and 10 rebounds for Indiana (11-20), which was eliminated from playoff contention. McCowan tied a franchise record with her third straight double-double.

Indiana's Candice Dupree scored 17 points and moved into second place in the WNBA for career field goals with 2,632. She passed Tina Thompson.

WINGS 88, SKY 83

CHICAGO (AP) - Arike Ogunbowale scored eight of her 35 points in the fourth quarter and Dallas snapped a four-game losing skid with a win over Chicago.

The Sky (18-13), who are playoff bound for the first time in two seasons, have lost consecutive games after winning three in a row.

Ogunbowale matched her career-high in scoring and added six assists. She also surpassed 500 career points and is the first rookie in league history to have seven consecutive 20-point games. Isabelle Harrison had 18 points and 12 rebounds for the Wings (10-20). Allisha Gray added 16 points and Glory Johnson had 10.

Courtney Vandersloot had 19 points and seven assists to lead the Sky. Diamond DeShields had 17 points, Allie Quigley 16 and Stefanie Dolson finished with 15 points and 11 rebounds.

MERCURY 65, DREAM 58

ATLANTA (AP) - Brittney Griner scored 21 points and Phoenix secured the final WNBA playoff spot with a win over Atlanta.

It's the seventh consecutive postseason berth for Phoenix (15-15).

Griner finished 7 of 12 from the field and made 7 of 8 free throws. She had eight rebounds and four blocks.

Atlanta (7-23) scored just six points in the first quarter before closing within one with 4:36 left in the third. But Griner scored six straight points late in the period for an eight-point edge.

Renee Montgomery led Atlanta with 20 points.
