Tuesday?s 6-pack

Highest payrolls in the NBA:

6) Portland Trailblazers $131,747,436

5) Houston Rockets $134,843,975

4) Toronto Raptors $141,265,305

3) Golden State Warriors $145,699,527

2) Oklahoma City Thunder $146,463,850

1) Miami Heat $158,203,135

Quote of the Day
?I think your play is embarrassing, me subbing them is saving them, maybe. Maybe we saved them. The pro player thing, this is basketball; this is about honoring the game and doing the right things.

Embarrassment is not giving the effort in that Bulls uniform, so I put five guys in that I thought could put the effort in. They?re disappointed, they feel bad about it. We need some leadership to step up, we need some guys to take leadership roles on the team.?
Chicago Bulls? coach Jim Boylen

Tuesday?s quiz
Who was the Detroit Lions coach last time they won a playoff game?

Monday?s quiz
Matt Prater (then with the Broncos) holds the record for the longest FG in NFL history (64 yards); he kicked it against the Tennessee Titans.

Sunday?s quiz
Dwyane Wade played his college basketball at Marquette.

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

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

13) Saturday night the Chicago Bulls lost by 56 points to Boston- they lost at home, 133-76, which is obviously not good and it came a couple games after a coaching change.

But this is worse; on Sunday, the Bulls refused to practice, because new coach Jim Boylen held a couple of two-hour practices earlier in the week. During the season with lot of games, NBA teams don?t have 2-hour practices very often.

Chicago is 6-21, last in the Eastern Conference; their team payroll is $103,926,708, which is 2nd-lowest in the NBA. Their team sucks, but guys get mad when the coach shows them up by subbing out five guys at a time- they revolt at practicing. How do you get better?

I?m getting old?..lol

12) Baseball?s winter meetings are this week in Las Vegas, good chance to think ahead to next spring and also to feel warmer. Thinking about baseball takes some of the chill out of the air.

11) ESPN?s Sunday night baseball games will move an hour next year, starting at 7:00 instead of 8, which means there will be overlap with the 4:00 games on DirecTV, which is fine.

10) Tampa Bay Rays went 44-34 LY when they used an ?opener? to pitch the first inning of a game; they?ve said they will use that tactic again in 2019.

9) Oakland Raiders fired GM Reggie McKenzie Monday; when you?re paying the coach $100M over ten years, you have to give him control of the franchise, so they told McKenzie to take a hike. Dallas/Chicago are two of the hottest teams in the NFL, thanks in large part to players they got from Oakland, which stockpiled draft picks as it prepares to move to Las Vegas in 2020.

8) 32-year old backup QB Josh Johnson, on his sixth NFL team, led two TD drives Sunday against the Giants; he said he used the Madden NFL video game in order to learn some of the names on the Redskins? roster- he played Sunday despite only being on the team for five days.

Johnson was picked in the AAF draft last week; not sure now if he?ll play in the new spring league, if he finished the season with Redskins, which he figures to do.

Mark Sanchez said last week that the first time he talked to LT Trent Williams was in the huddle on the field in the Redskins? loss at Philadelphia LW. Hard to win that way.

7) Tennessee 76, Gonzaga 73? Impressive win on a neutral floor for Rick Barnes? Volunteers; they made 12-29 on the arc, with Schofield going 6-10.

6) I wonder how Michael O?Keefe?s acting career would?ve turned out if he hadn?t played golf against Judge Smails in Caddyshack.

5) Iowa State football coach Matt Campbell agreed to a contract extension through 2024 and has gotten $1M in additional salary for his assistant coaches, good news for Cyclone fans.

4) Kansas State is expected to hire North Dakota State?s Chris Kleiman its football coaching job; he is expected to accept the job but he is also expected to coach North Dakota State as far as they go in I-AA Playoffs. Kleiman is 67-6 at NDSU and has won three national titles.

3) Oakland A?s new AAA affiliate will be called the Las Vegas Aviators, a logo that I predict will take off in popularity.

2) Harold Baines is in the Baseball Hall of Fame? I?m not buying that, but it guarantees that Edgar Martinez is getting in down the road, which is a good thing.

1) I don?t get why the Heisman Trophy TV show is an hour long; a complete waste of 45 minutes. Introduce the four finalists and tell us who won; dragging it out to an hour must make money or they wouldn?t do it, but I never watch it- just let me know who won.

Best thing about the college football playoff is that it has taken a lot of the focus away from this individual award. I remember Joe Tessitore talking about the Heisman during a game on Labor Day weekend a few years ago, thats how ridiculous it had gotten.

Kansas back to No. 1 in AP Top 25
December 10, 2018
By The Associated Press

Kansas is back where it started the season.

The preseason No. 1, the Jayhawks are again the top-ranked in The Associated Press Top 25 despite struggling to get past New Mexico State at home. Kansas received 57 first-place votes from a 65-person media panel in the poll released Monday, sliding into the top spot after previous No. 1 Gonzaga lost to Tennessee.

No. 2 Duke moved up a spot and received four first-place votes. No. 3 Tennessee, No. 4 Gonzaga, No. 5 Michigan and No. 6 Virginia received the other first-place votes.

No. 7 Nevada, Auburn, Michigan State and Florida State rounded out the top 10.

The Jayhawks were the preseason No. 1, but dropped a spot after Duke decimated then-No. 2 Kentucky to open the season.

Gonzaga moved to No. 1 after beating Duke in the Maui Invitational title game, lasting two weeks before losing 76-73 to the Vols Sunday in Phoenix.

Kansas (8-0) kept winning, though needed a big game from Dedric Lawson to beat New Mexico State in Kansas City on Saturday. Lawson, a preseason All-American, had 20 points, including the final 14 for Kansas, and 10 rebounds in the tighter than expected 63-60 victory.

Kansas played without center Udoka Azubuike, but coach Bill Self was not buying any excuses for the struggles.

''We were fortunate tonight,'' he said. ''How in the world we've won these games ... it's one thing to not play well, it's another thing to not play well and not be intellectually into the game and that was certainly the case tonight.''

It was good enough to get the Jayhawks past the Aggies - and move to No. 1.

VOLS RISING

Tennessee picked up its biggest win in four seasons under coach Rick Barnes by knocking off Gonzaga in the Colangelo Classic.

The Vols (7-1) kept their poise and made the biggest plays down the stretch, holding off the Zags 76-73 after Admiral Schofield scored 25 of his 30 points in the second half and hit two key 3-pointers.

The victory was Tennessee's first over a No. 1 team since beating Kansas in 2010 and Barnes' first in 31 years as a head coach.

The Vols have their highest AP ranking since hitting No. 1 in 2007-08.

FURMAN HOLDS STEADY

Furman moved into the poll for the first time last week, thanks to a resume that includes wins over 2018 Final Four teams Villanova and Loyola-Chicago.

The Paladins (10-0) moved up two spots in this week's poll to No. 23 after beating Elon and South Carolina Upstate.

Furman plays Charleston Southern on Tuesday and UNC Wilmington Saturday.

TOP 27

This week's poll had a rarity: Three teams tied for the final spot.

Syracuse, Indiana and Kansas State all came in at No. 25 after receiving 118 points. It's the first three-way tie in the AP Top 25 since three teams shared No. 13 in 1991.

The Hoosiers are ranked for the first time since climbing to No. 3 in 2016-17. The Orange moved back into the Top 25 after beating Northeastern and Georgetown.

The Wildcats dropped nine spots from No. 16 after losing to Tulsa.

RISING

Tennessee matched the biggest climb of the week, moving up four spots from No. 7.

No. 15 Ohio State, No. 17 Villanova and No. 18 Mississippi also moved up four.

FALLING

No. 19 Kentucky had the largest drop this week, losing 10 spots to No. 19 after losing to Seton Hall in overtime. Kansas State was next at nine.

MOVING IN

In addition to Syracuse and Indiana, No. 21 Marquette and No. 24 Houston each moved into the poll this week.

The Cougars are ranked for the first time since hitting No. 21 last season and the Golden Eagles are back in the poll after dropping out in Week 3.

BALLOT BOYCOTT

One AP voter opted to leave five teams off his ballot because none have played a true road game.

Graham Couch of the Lansing State Journal did not include Kansas, Duke, Tennessee, Auburn, Texas Tech, Kentucky, Villanova or Texas.

His rationale is here .

Wednesday?s 6-pack

? Penn 78, Villanova 75? Villanova?s 25-game Big Five win streak ends.

? Colorado 78, New Mexico 75? Buffs were down 17, improve to 8-1.

? New Mexico gets 6-10 Kansas transfer Carlton Bragg eligible Sunday

? Spurs 111, Suns 86? Popovich moves into 4th place on all-time win list.

? Orioles hired Cubs bench coach Brandon Hyde as their new manager.

? Texas Rangers hired former P Brandon McCarthy to help out in aspects of pitching development in the major and minor leagues.

Quote of the Day
?Sometimes it makes it worse when it?s right there. If you get blown out it doesn?t seem to hurt as bad as when you have a chance.??
Ben Roethlisberger

Wednesday?s quiz
The Clippers were in San Diego before they played in LA; what was the team?s name before they moved to San Diego?
(Hint: They had 2 or 3 really good/well-known players)

Tuesday?s quiz
Wayne Fontes was Lions? coach in 1991, last time Detroit won a playoff game.

Monday?s quiz
Matt Prater (then with the Broncos) holds the record for the longest FG in NFL history (64 yards); he kicked it against the Tennessee Titans.

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

Wednesday?s List of 13: Mid-week musings??.

13) Things you don?t see much; Dallas ran 93 plays Sunday, Philly only 48.

Cannot remember last time an NFL team ran 93 plays in a game. Cowboys had only done it once before EVER, running 94 plays in a 1978 win over Green Bay.

Does being on the field for 93 plays have a hangover effect this week, when the Eagles visit the Rams in Los Angeles?

12) Very few NFL games get butchered the way New England butchered their loss in Miami last week; Brady took a sack at the end of the first half when Patriots were out of timeouts and in the red zone, costing his team three points, a horrible mistake that was a lot like Russell Wilson?s INT at the end of the first half Monday night.

Then Miami scoring on a 69-yard desperation play to get the walk-off win; why is Gronkowski on the field for that play? Play started on the Miami 31; Tannehill ain?t throwing a Hail Mary pass 70+ yards. I?m guessing the Patriots? flight home and defensive meetings Monday couldn?t have been very pleasant.

11) Minnesota Vikings fired OC John DeFilippo Tuesday, after the Vikings got whacked 21-7 by the Seahawks Monday night. Mike Zimmer has gone thru lot of QB?s/OC?s in his tenure as the Vikings? coach.

10) Royals signed free agent OF Billy Hamilton, who runs really fast but as my dad often said, ?He can?t steal first base.? When your on-base% is under .300, that not good.

9) More baseball dealings:
? Phillies gave Andrew McCutchen $16.7M a year for three years.
? Blue Jays released oft-injured SS Troy Tulowitzki, who is still owed $38M.
? White Sox acquired P Ivan Nova from Pittsburgh.

8) Steph Curry is going to host a PGA Tour event at Lake Merced Golf Club in Daly City, CA, starting in the 2019-20 season. The tournament doesn?t have a sponsor yet; the golf course is going to get $3.6M in upgrades before then.

7) Memphis Grizzlies equipment assistant Brian? Miller was offered $100,000 for the sneakers LeBron James gave her over the weekend, but she says she has no interest in selling them.

6) ESPN released 11 Sunday night telecasts for 2019; what a surprise- five Red Sox games, four Bronx games, three Dodger games, zero Astros games. And they wonder why the sport isn?t as popular as it used to be? Houston is the 4th-biggest city in the country and they are one of the best teams? put their young stars on TV!!!!

This doesn?t even need to be stated, but A?s/Rays aren?t on the list. Both won 90+ games LY.

5) MLB Network is great this week, watching stuff from Winter Meetings every day, but then they put this guy Charlie Montoyo on Tuesday at 6pm, and I had no idea he was Toronto?s new manager. He worked for Kevin Cash in Tampa for four years, so thats a good thing these days, working with another successful manager.

4) So its 4am Monday night/Tuesday morning and I?m winding down getting ready for bed, then I hear trucks outside, and they start jackhammering the road across street from me, digging this big hole. Seven feet deep, 25-30 feet long. It is freakin? 4am!!!!

So much for sleep??or water. Must?ve been a leak in the pipes.

Water came back on 11 hours later, the road looks like it is a war zone, kind of killed the day, though not having water to take a shower forced me to get some sleep. Feel bad for guys who are outside at 4am in 15-degree weather fixing plumbing.

3) City of Oakland is suing the Raiders, making it evident that this will be the Raiders? last year playing home games in Oakland- they?re moving to Las Vegas in 2020.

2) Football coaches are nomads: Ole Miss hired former Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre as its new defensive coordinator, which will make their defense a lot better. Ole Miss will have two new coordinators next year; their OC Phil Longo is off to the same job at North Carolina.

Former Bowling Green coach Mike Jinks is the new running backs coach at USC; no offense to the fine folks at Bowling Green, but thats a promotion- RB coach at USC is a better job than HC at Bowling Green- what a storied history of RB?s the Trojans have had.

1) Former Tennessee football coach Butch Jones was hired this week by Maryland as an assistant to new head coach Mike Locksley; both guys were assistants at Alabama this season.

Colin Kaepernick should go be an assistant coach at Alabama; maybe he could get a job in the NFL then. Every other Saban assistant gets a new job fairly quickly.

Thursday?s 6-pack

? Patriots have allowed 56 plays plays of 20+ yards; 37 on 1st down (66.1%)

? Chargers 32 of 52 plays (61.5%)

? Jets 42 of 71 plays (59.2%)

? Steelers 30 of 55 plays (54.5%)

? Eagles 34 of 64 plays (53.1%)

? Lowest %age: Dallas 11 of 40 plays (27.5%)

Quote of the Day
?He?s good at basketball. I get asked that every day. I don?t know how to answer that anymore. Nothing he does surprises me.??
Steve Kerr, talking about Steph Curry

Thursday?s quiz
Where did Steph Curry play his college basketball?

Wednesday?s quiz
The Clippers were in San Diego before they played in LA; they were the Buffalo Braves before they moved to San Diego, with Bob McAdoo, Jim McMillian, Randy Smith, Ernie DeGregorio.

Tuesday?s quiz
Wayne Fontes was Lions? coach in 1991, last time Detroit won a playoff game.

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

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

13) If you were a college football player, which bowl would you NOT want to play in? There are a ton of bowls, 39 if I counted right. We?ll talk about this later on this month, but no way would I want to go somewhere cold, like Boise or the Bronx or Detroit. Bowl games should be warm; at least the game in Detroit is indoors.

Anyway, did you know players get swag bags at bowl games? Here are three of some of the best swag collections EVERY player gets at these games???

12) New Mexico Bowl North Texas vs. Utah State
? Oakley Jupiter Squared sunglasses
? Oakley 5 Speed backpack
? Bluetooth speaker
? water bottle
? beanie
? Montgomery pen
? Pacific Headwear trucker?s cap

11) Valero Alamo Bowl Iowa State vs. Washington State
? $425 Amazon gift card? Every kid gets $425, a good deal for the scrubs
? Fossil watch
? mini helmet
? team panoramic photo

10) AutoZone Liberty Bowl Missouri vs. Oklahoma State ?
? Shopping trip to Memphis? Bass Pro Shops
? Bose SoundLink micro Bluetooth speaker;
? Bulova watch
? Nike athletic shoes
? sport sandals
? backpack and sunglasses
? football

9) Minnesota QB coach Kevin Stefanski will take over as the new offensive coordinator of the Minnesota Vikings, after John DeFilippo was fired Tuesday. Here?s an idea; let your QB call his own damn plays? he makes $28M a year, I?m guessing he could do it.

8) We mentioned the other day how Mike MacIntyre got fired as the head coach at Colorado and is now the DC at Ole Miss. Turns out that MacIntyre will now be making over $1M more per year than he was at Colorado, and he?s not even the head coach.

7) I have the NBA Full Court package on DirecTV; I enjoy watching good basketball, but I read the stuff about the Chicago Bulls revolting against their new coach and not wanting to practice the day after a 56-point loss and it makes me want to cancel my subscription.

Not sure what the solution is, but the league has a problem on its hands.

6) The sport that loses the most in transition from in person to on TV is hockey. If you?ve never gone to a college or pro hockey game, you should? it is great fun. Watch the officials; they?re such great skaters.

5) I think Bob Uecker should?ve gotten an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Indians? radio announcer Harry Doyle in the fine baseball movie Major League.

4) As recently as 1999, Vice-President Mike Pence was a radio talkshow host in Indiana. The guy?s head has to be spinning; his every move now is fodder for late-night comedians.

You have any idea how hard it is to just sit there with no emotion or no motion like he did in the Oval Office Tuesday? Someone on the Interweb compared him to the dead guy in Weekend at Bernie?s, and it didn?t seem like that big a stretch to agree with him.

3) Tampa Bay Rays? plans for a new ballpark in Ybor City officially died this week when owner Stu Sternberg had a press conference at the Winter Meetings. Sounds like the Rays might be locked into the Trop now, until 2027- they could easily wind up in Montreal eventually.

2) The Heisman Trophy that Tim Brown won in 1987 sold for $435,763 at a public auction recently. Lot of money for a trophy.

1) Pretty cool that the Blue Jays will be paying Troy Tulowitzki $18.4M a year for the next two years, while he probably plays 2B for the A?s, who will be paying him the big league minimum. Now if he can only stay healthy??.

Armadillo's Write-Up

Thursday, December 13

Morehead State is 1-6 vs D-I teams, with two non-D-I wins; Eagles are experience team #145 team (#13 in MC) that has played schedule #55- they?re eFG% is #318 on offense, #319 on defense, no bueno. Morehead starts two seniors and a junior; they were down 20 at the half in their last game, at Marshall. Samford is 8-2 vs schedule #343; Bulldogs are #232 experience team that is 5-0 vs teams ranked outside top 200, with all five wins by 13+ points. Samford?s two losses are both against top 100 teams, Ohio State/Belmont.

USF beat Eastern Washington 81-71 LY, after losing to the Eagles the three years before that. EWU is 1-6 vs schedule #31; Eagles are experience team #244 that subs a lot (bench minutes #43); their three top 100 losses are by 32-34-24 points. EW made 37.9% of their 3?s LY; they?re making 28.6% this year (#311), only 43.7% of their 2?s (#321), 60.9% of FT?s (#334) so they can?t shoot. San Francisco is 8-1 vs schedule #258, with only loss to Buffalo in Ireland. Dons are #72 experience team that is shooting 60.3% inside arc; they?re 3-0 vs teams ranked outside top 200, with wins by 34-32-19 points.

Odd note: Morehead State?s one D-I win and Eastern Washington?s only win are both against UMKC, which is 2-7 but won its last two games.
