Quote of the Day
?It?s a deep scar. Every time I closed my eyes I kind of rewatched the game. I didn?t get a whole lot of sleep for weeks. I was in a dark place, and it took me a while, a lot of work to get out of it. I?ve worked through it, but therapy, talking to people, time helped. It took a lot of work to get through it.?
Titans? QB Ryan Tannehill, talking about Tennessee?s playoff loss in January
Wednesday?s quiz

1993 was the last time an NHL franchise located in Canada won the Stanley Cup, when Montreal beat the LA Kings 4-1 in the Stanley Cup finals.

Wednesday?s Den: Mid-week musings??..
13) Astros 4, Mariners 0? Dusty Baker wins his 2,000th game as a big league manager.
Flashback to July 19, 1975; my dad took me to Shea Stadium, Braves-Mets. When you?re 15 years and your first name is Biff and the Braves have a catcher named Biff Pocoroba, he becomes your hero. Not only did my dad get us tickets, he got us box seats in the third row, right by third base.
I was hoping to meet Biff Pocoroba as he walked to the bullpen with the relief pitchers before the game, but as luck would have it, he started behind the plate that day, his first start in a week. I did meet four Braves and got their autographs, including an outfielder named Dusty Baker.
12) I had this paperback book, The Handbook of Major League Baseball, which I bought every year; it had bios on the 10 best players on each team. Before Dusty signed the book, he read his bio in the book- the author wasn?t a fan.
?This guy doesn?t like me!!!? Dusty Baker laughed, signed the book, talked to me for a couple more minutes and then moved on down the row of fans.
47 years later and I?m still grateful. Congrats Mr Baker, enjoy your accomplishment!!!
11) There is a new idea brewing for college basketball, which could debut in February 2024; where a lot of the mid-major leagues, all of them ranked below the Big East/Pac-12 level, take a week out of their conference schedules and play two non-league games, one home and one away.
The idea is to build the mid-major teams? resume for at-large bid and also to create interest for March Madness. It would also reduce the amount of BS non-conference games that are played in November/December.
10) Impressive field for the Maui Classic in November:
? Arizona, Arkansas, Cincinnati, Creighton
? Louisville, Ohio State, San Diego State, Texas Tech
9) Turns out the NFL was little annoyed with the Detroit Lions last Thursday, when Jaguars made the first pick in the draft, then Detroit immediately turned in their pick two minutes later.
Apparently the league likes teams to take the full 10:00 between picks, so they do their interviews and get some commercials in and build some suspense for the second pick, which obviously didn?t happen in this case. Apparently a phone call was made to Detroit to express the league?s displeasure with what happened.
8) Steve Lavin left FS1?s TV studio to return to coaching at San Diego; Jay Wright would be the logical choice to take his place, seeing how FS1 does lot of Big East games.
7) Modern baseball: Dom Smith goes 4-4 Sunday night, so of course he sits out the next two games; why start one of your best hitters? Smith played the nightcap of Tuesday?s twinbill and hit a 2-run double as the Mets swept Atlanta.
6) Random List: my four favorite Paul Newman movies:
? The Verdict
? Absence of Malice
? Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
? Message in a Bottle
5) Counting playoff games, Phoenix Suns have now won 10 games in a row over Dallas.
4) Maine became the 34th state with legalized sports gambling this week.
3) Not sure how long the HBO series Winning Time about the LA Lajers will last, but if the series goes on for a few years, can?t wait to see how they portray Phil Jackson, and who they hire to play his role.
2) Tennessee Titans drafted QB Malik Willis last week, which ignited a spirited debate on Twitter; is part of incumbent QB Ryan Tannehill?s job to be a mentor for the young QB?
Opinion was divided on this; my opinion is this:
? It is Tannehill?s job to play quarterback for the Titans. He needs to lead by example. Tannehill will be 31 in July; he still has a lot of years left, whether in Tennessee or somewhere else.
? It is Willis? job to observe Taneyhill and learn as much as he can from him.
? Coaches get paid to coach, players get paid to play.
? Willis is a 3rd-round pick, so he will wind up starting at some point, not necessarily in 2022.
? Tennessee becomes a more interesting team to follow early next season.
1) NBA playoffs:
? Boston 109, Milwaukee 86? Celtics were 20-43 on arc, Milwaukee 3-18.
? Memphis 106, Golden State 101? Curry/Thompson shot 5-23 behind the arc.
Both series are tied, 1-1.

Quote of the Day
?If you?re a sports fan, for a while, like a decade, at least, you?re going to need an established bundle of some type, whether it?s distributed the old-fashioned way, and you?re also probably going to need some streaming services. It?s not going to be cheap.?
Patrick Crakes, a former Fox executive, and media consultant
Thursday?s quiz
Where did Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler play his college basketball?
Wednesday?s quiz
Trent Dilfer was the first quarterback to win a Super Bowl in his first season with that team, when the 2000 Baltimore Ravens won the title.
Tuesday?s quiz
1993 was the last time an NHL franchise located in Canada won the Stanley Cup, when Montreal beat the LA Kings 4-1 in the Stanley Cup finals.
************************
Thursday?s Den: Happy Cinco de Mayo
13) Lights in my neighborhood went out for 40 minutes tonight, no power, nothing. Very weird to sit in the dark and stare at my phone. Got e-mail notification from the power company, lights came back on sooner than expected, so its all good now.
I think.
If you?re reading this, the power stayed on.
12) NFL announced its five international games for the coming season:
October 2? Vikings-Saints in London
October 9? Giants-Packers in London
October 30? Broncos-Jaguars in London
November 13? Seahawks-Buccaneers in Munich
November 21? Cardinals-49ers in Mexico City
11) Arizona 8, Miami 7:
? Madison Bumgarner got ejected after the first inning of his start against Miami Wednesday after a confrontation with first-base umpire Dan Bellino. Bellino was checking Bumgarner?s hand for foreign substances; the check seemed to go longer than usual, then words were exchanged and Bumgarner flipped out. It was his second career ejection.
? Pavin Smith won the game with a 2-run tater in last inning.
10) Players in NBA history with 55+ points, 10+ rebounds in a playoff game:
Wilt Chamberlain, Rick Barry, Elgin Baylor, Charles Barkley
9) Game 2 of the Boston-Milwaukee series was Tuesday; Game 3 isn?t until Saturday. NBA teams don?t practice that much during the season, so this will be unusual for them.
8) Phoenix 129, Dallas 109:
? Suns are first team since the ?86 Lakers to shoot 50%+ in their first seven playoff games of a season; now they?ve shot 50%+ in eight straight games- they shot 64.5% in this game.
? Phoenix outscored Dallas 71-49 in second half.
? Phoenix leads series, 2-0
7) Brewers 18, Reds 4:
? Rowdy Tellez homered twice, knocked in eight runs; he has four homers in his last four games.
? Cincinnati is 3-21, losing 19 of their last 20 games. Not good.
6) Was watching a ballgame the other day and Marwin Gonzalez was playing, which reminded me of a cruddy day in my fantasy baseball history.
August 2017 we?re in our fantasy baseball playoffs, and my game is very close. Week runs from Monday to Sunday, so 6:30 or so Sunday, we?re down to cases. Angels-Astros is the last relevant game for me; I?m ahead by a whisker, just need Marwin Gonzalez to make an out in his last at-bat of the week.
Guy on Houston had just hit a 3-run double to put the Astros up 7-5; now Gonzalez is up with a guy on third, two out, his team up 7-5.
Mike Scioscia was managing the Angels; he walked Gonzalez??..intentionally. I lose.
Can never remember a guy getting walked intentionally in that situation before. Or since. Not that I?m bitter about it or anything, but it has been five years and it still ticks me off.
5) Wednesday was the 47th anniversary of the day the 1,000,000th run in MLB history was scored. It was kind of a big deal back then; Tootsie Rolls actually ran a promotion where the player who scored the 1,000,000th run got 1,000,000 Tootsie Rolls and 1,000,000 pennies ($10,000).
Came down to a Sunday afternoon; guys on the Astros and Reds hit home runs at roughly the same time, and the baserunner on Houston is racing the batter for the Reds to see who would score first, to score that millionth run.
Houston?s Bob Watson scored the 1,000,000th run, Dave Concepcion scored the 1,000,001st run. Watson donated the Tootsie Rolls to the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts.
4) Angels 10, Red Sox 5 (10)
? Angels had been shut out in three of previous four games; they didn?t get a baserunner in this game until the fifth inning.
? Jared Walsh tied game with 9th inning single; he also hit a 3-run homer in a 6-run 10th.
3) Robert Griffin III didn?t play in the NFL last year, he was a college football TV analyst, but he recently ran a 4.48 40-yard dash, so now he has apparently gotten calls from a few NFL teams about making a comeback.
Griffin is 32; he has a lifetime record of 18-27 as a starter, but he was 9-6 as a rookie in 2012, and it went downhill from there. Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta may be interested in his services.
2) Speaking of QBs/TV analysts, before Tony Romo started his TV career, Jay Cutler was supposed to be the new FOX analyst, but got bounced in favor of Romo.
Cutler was on a reality show with his wife a few years ago; I think the show was Very Cavallari on the E! Channel. Cutler had kind of a sarcastic sense of humor; I?d still be curious about how he would be as a TV analyst.
1) Miami 119, Philadelphia 103:
? Heat made 14-29 on shots on the arc.
? Miami was +1o on backboards.
? Heat leads series 2-0; it isn?t sounding promising for Joel Embiid to return in the next few days. Without Embiid, 76ers ain?t winning this series.
