Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

Six of the more interesting NFL games this weekend:

— Colts vs Jaguars (London)– 9:30am ET games are for the birds.

— Bills @ Patriots– Who plays QB for New England?

— Panthers @ Atlanta– Falcons’ offense is rolling.

— Saints @ San Diego– Drew Brees back in his old home.

— Rams @ Arizona– Big game in NFC West. Yes, a big game.

— Chiefs @ Pittsburgh– KC scored one TD in last two games.

**********

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: List of 13: Mid-week musings……

13) Tremendously obscure baseball trivia: In the history of baseball, only one player has homered in his first AND last major league at-bat.

John Miller played in six games in 1966, 26 in 1969, that’s it; he went 10-61 in those 32 games with two homers, three RBI, three walks. His homers came in his first and last major league at-bats.

The only major leaguer EVER to do that.

12) Detroit Lions got called for a 66-yard pass interference penalty in Green Bay Sunday, the longest PI penalty in at least 15 years.

11) Carolina Panthers have run the ball for 100+ yards in each of their last 30 games; the next-highest streak in the NFL is Dallas, with 7.

10) I like to track how the six most popular picks in the Westgate Super Contest fare each week; so far after three weeks, they’re 4-14 vs spread, including 0-6 in Week 3. Not good.

9) If your favorite NFL team is 0-3 (Saints-Jags-Browns-Bears), keep in mind that from 2002-15, 69 NFL teams were 0-3. None of them made the playoffs. San Diego did get to the Super Bowl once after an 0-4 start, but that was a long time ago.

8) Rams are 2-1 for the first time since 2006. Ten long years.

7) Florida International fired football coach Ron Turner, who is Norv Turner’s brother. FIU is 0-4 with three losses by 21+ points.

6) Mets were losing 10-8 in ninth inning the other day; TV analyst Keith Hernandez is adamant that hitters have to take a strike, since the closer for the Phillies has trouble throwing strikes. You could almost hear him biting his tongue when the leadoff hitter hit a fly ball to center on the first pitch, then the next hitter fouled off the first pitch.

Would’ve been interesting if Hernandez said what he was thinking after the first-pitch swings- he just grunted after the second one.

5) In their first three games, Indianapolis Colts were down 21-10, 13-6 and tied 13-13 at halftime. On their first drive of the third quarter, Indy has driven 85-79-75 yards for three touchdowns.

4) ESPN college football analyst Ed Cunningham had the Cal-Arizona State game in Tempe Saturday; he told a story of when he played offensive line for the Cardinals, he lost 14 pounds during an exhibition game in Sun Devil Stadium. That couldn’t have been a lot of fun.

3) Ivy League finally relented and will have a four-team basketball conference tournament in March. Only eight teams in the league; will be fun to see teams compete to get into the NCAA tournament.

2) Parents of Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter do a commercial for a sporting goods store on a St Louis TV station. Not sure how they came up with that idea, but it is a pretty cool commercial.

1– You think about how hard Jose Fernandez (and others) worked to get to this country from Cuba and how happy they appear to be here, getting paid to play a game they love.

Some of us have lost sight of how lucky we are to live in this country, not that it is a perfect place- there are no perfect places, but we’re free to do what we want and say what we think here and that isn’t true everywhere.

We need to tolerate each other more and enjoy our time here. We’re not guaranteed anything, that much we learned this past weekend.
