Quote of the Day
“It was all about that. Last week we wanted to get him out there and get a feel for what he was in a live game, which we kind of already knew. We wanted to see him be able to answer questions, talk about it on the sideline, go out there and execute, make mistakes and know what to do. We saw enough last week of Michael Penix in the live stuff.”
Falcons coach Raheem Morris, explaining why the rookie QB didn’t play this week
Monday’s quiz
Arizona Diamondbaacks made the playoffs in their second year of existence, in 1999; who was their manager back then?
Sunday’s quiz
Terry Gannon was the Raiders’ QB, the last time they played in a Super Bowl.

— Las Vegas Raiders named Gardner Minshew their starting QB; he was 7-6 as starting QB for the Colts last year, is 15-22 overall as an NFL starter. Raiders are Minshew’s fourth team in his sixth NFL season.
— Miami Hurricanes are 1-11 in their last dozen bowl games, losing their last five in a row. Has to be a decent amount of heat on coach Mario Cristobal, who is 12-13 SU in his first two years with the Hurricanes.
— Florida Gators’ football schedule this fall is daunting; their five games in November, as of right now, are all against teams ranked in the top 13 in the country. Tough stretch.
— New England Patriots traded pass-rushed Matthew Judon to Atlanta, in exchange for a 3rd round draft pick. Judon has played in four Pro Bowls in his eight years, but played in only four games last season.
— Cincinnati Bengals paid kicker Evan McPherson, giving him a 3-year, $16.5M extension to his contract. McPherson has made 78 of 93 field goals in his 3-year NFL career.
— With rookie QB JJ McCarthy out for the year, Minnesota Vikings added QB Matt Corral to their roster; Corral was a 3-year starter at Ole Miss, but got hurt in the Rebels’ bowl game his last year, and has bounced around since then, winning all three of his starts for Birmingham in the UFL this post spring.

Harrison is out of baseball now; this fall, he’ll be a 29-year old freshman WR for the Arkansas Razorbacks football team in the SEC.
— There is a hotel in Milwaukee, the Pfister Hotel, where major league teams stay when they’re visiting the Brewers. Problem is, there are people who believe that the Pfister Hotel is haunted; Mookie Betts, for one, refuses to stay at the Pfister when the Dodgers are in Milwaukee.
— Rangers 6, Twins 5 (10)
Minnesota led 4-0 in 7th inning.
Carlos Santana tied the game with a 9th inning home run

Tuesday’s Den: Nobody asked me, but……..
— When I was a kid, I freakin’ loved TV game shows, watched way too many of them and one of the best, if not the best game show, was Hollywood Squares, which won four Daytime Emmys as the best game show.
Nine stars would be arranged in a tic-tac-toe format and contestants would agree/disagree with the answers they gave, to earn an X or an O, with the winner being the person who got tic-tac-toe.
From 1966-81, Peter Marshall hosted Hollywood Squares; he was an actor and singer before he got this gig, but he was a great game show host. He would set up the celebrities for their jokes with his questions; he was smart and good-natured. It was an awesome TV show.
Sadly, Peter Marshall passed away last week, at age 98. RIP, sir
— Peter Marshall’s real name was Ralph Pierre LaCock; his son Pete LaCock played nine years in the major leagues, as a 1B/OF for the Cubs, Royals.
— There must be a boatload of $$$ involved with hosting fantasy football leagues; ESPN hosts a 27-hour fantasy football marathon every year, which in the middle of the night can be oddly entertaining.
— QB Colt McCoy has retired from the NFL, will work this fall as a studio analyst for college football games for NBC.
McCoy was in the NFL for 12 years, starting 36 games (11-25) for five teams. He played college ball at Texas, was a 3rd round draft pick by Cleveland.
— Washington Commanders announced that rookie QB Jayden Daniels will start the season opener at Tampa Bay. Kliff Kingsbury is the OC for Dan Quinn in Washington; it’ll be very interesting to see how he does, after playing in college at Arizona State/LSU.
— Atlanta Falcons shocked a lot of people when they drafted QB Michael Penix with the 8th picks in the draft in April, now they’ve raised more eyebrows, by not playing him in their last two exhibition games, after he was 9-16/104 passing in the first exhibition game.
Why not give the kid more game experience? They’re paying Kirk Cousins $45M a year to be the starting QB for this year (you would think) so why not let Penix get some experience? It makes very little sense.
— Oklahoma State’s quarterback is Alan Bowman, who someday can write an interesting book:
2018- He threw 218 passes for Texas Tech
2019- He threw 154 passes for Texas Tech
2020- He threw 232 passes for Texas Tech
2021- He threw four passes for Michigan
2022- He threw seven passes for Michigan
2023- He threw 501 passes for Oklahoma State
2024- He will start for Oklahoma State. Again.
He must have a doctorate by now; seven years in college is a long time.

— Miami Marlins are 46-79 this year, they’re a bad team, but they’re 19-16 in one-run games.
Last year, Marlins were 33-14 in one-run games; Skip Schumaker is a really good manager- 52-30 in one-run games is a telling stat. Marlins will miss Schumaker as a manager next year.
— Arizona 9, Marlins 6
Rookie C Adrian Del Castillo is from Miami; he homered, knocked in six runs— it seemed like most of the small crowd in Miami was made up of his friends/family.
— A’s 3, Rays 0
JJ Bleday homered, Joe Boyle tossed six shutout IP.
Not to jinx anything, but the A’s aren’t in last place; they’re a game ahead of the Angels!!!
— Mets 4, Orioles 3
Francisco Alvarez hit a walk-off homer for the Mets.
Trevor Rogers is 0-2, 7.11 in four starts since the Orioles traded for him.
— Astros 5, Red Sox 4
Yainer Diaz hit a walk-off home run for Houston.
Astros have won 11 of their last 12 games.

Corey Seager homered in his first two at-bats.

“It was the easiest thing I’ve ever done in show business. I walked in, said ‘Hello stars,’ I read questions and laughed. And it paid very well.”
