Tuesday’s quiz

************************************************** *******************************
Thursday’s List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud…….
13) November of 1980, I’m the student manager of UAlbany’s basketball team; we were a good team in Division III, we had a really good coach and several excellent players- winning is fun.
We opened the season in a tournament at Brockport State, a suburb of Rochester; we win our first game, then the host team Brockport State is playing in the nightcap. They weren’t very good; their coach was wearing a neck brace- he had recently been in a car accident.
Guy’s name was Bill Van Gundy; he had been a junior college coach in California before taking the Brockport job. You may have heard of his sons, Jeff and Stan, former NBA coaches who both do TV games on ESPN now. Brockport lost their first round game.
Albany won that tournament; we beat an Upsala team in the final that Sports Illustrated had pegged as a favorite to win the national title. Great Danes went 23-5 that year, lost in OT of Sweet 16 of the NCAA D-III tournament. Long time ago, but those were fun days; I’ve wondered if one of the Van Gundy brothers was in Brockport that weekend, watching our team play.
12) LSU guard Skylar Mays is a very good player; he also played the trumpet in his high school’s marching band. Not many NBA players can say that. Mays will be an NBA player.
11) Preseason top 25 polls are useless; San Diego State didn’t get one vote in this preseason’s top 25, yet here they are in mid-February, the country’s only unbeaten team. Go figure.
10) Red Sox are paying these people this year, who will not play for them:
$16,000,000— David Price
$14,271,428— Rusney Castillo
$13,125,000— Dustin Pedroia
$5,000,000— Pablo Sandoval
$2,013,418— Manny Ramirez
$50,409,846— Total of Boston’s 2020 dead money
9) Red Sox named Ron Roenicke interim manager for this season; he went 342-331 in 4+ years as Milwaukee’s manager, from 2011-15.
8) College basketball teams are making 33.59% of their 3’s this season; they made 34.54% last year. Teams are taking 21.83 3’s per game this year; they took 22.45 last year.
7) Around 75% of sticks used on the ice by NHL players come from Chinese factories; the Chinese government has stopped travel and work because of the coronavirus, and companies are being impacted. That includes companies that make sticks for the NHL, and there is an increasing worry that there could be a hockey stick shortage later this season.
6) Wednesday’s upsets:
— George Mason (+14) 72, VCU 67
— Mercer (+7.5) 70, Wofford 68
— Georgia Tech (+6.5) 64, Louisville 58
— Creighton (+6) 87, Seton Hall 82
5) Highest scoring teams in conference play:
1. Summit 75.8
2. Southland 75.1
3. OVC 73.4
4. Horizon 73.4
5. Mountain West 72.9
4) Lowest scoring teams in conference play:
28. SWAC 67.1
29. American 66.8
30. MVC 66.5
31. A-Sun 65.3
32. Big 12 64.3
3) Six weeks after becoming the first NFL QB to throw 30+ TD’s, 30+ INT’s in the same season, Jameis Winston underwent LASIK surgery to repair his vision. Seriously.
“He can’t read the scoreboard but he can see the guys in front of him.” Bucs coach Bruce Arians
If you asked whether Winston’s vision is now “30-30”, you weren’t the first.
2) Auburn 95, Alabama 91 OT:
— Auburn led this game 16-0 out of the box.
— Alabama was 22-59 on 3-pointers!!!! 8-25 inside arc.
— Auburn outscored Crimson Tide 26-9 on foul line.
— Auburn out rebounded Alabama 60-44.
1) Over last six years, Dustin Johnson is minus-60 at the Genesis Invitational golf tournament, 13 shots better than any other player.

Quote of the Day:
“It’s about continuing to move forward, it’s about trying to learn from your mistakes, it’s about trying to not repeat your mistakes or bad decisions, and just try to continue to develop the group. I work from a position of positivity always. I don’t dwell on negativity, and I always believe something better’s on the horizon.”
Joe Maddon

************************************************** ***************************
Friday’s List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here…….
13) When ESPN first started 40 years ago, during the NCAA tournament, they would replay games all night long; it was excellent. You could basically go from noon Thursday to 6:30 Sunday night, constantly watching basketball, except you have to sleep, so I’d pick crummy games to catch naps during, two hours at a time.
These days, CBS Sports Network does that during the tournament, and ESPNU has started showing games all night long during the regular season. Tremendous.
12) Cincinnati 92, Memphis 86— Young Tigers led by 10 with 6:11 left, but couldn’t finish the job and are now 4-5 in their last nine games, after starting season 12-1.
11) Oregon 68, Colorado 60— Ducks’ G Payton Pritchard is only player in country to lead his team in assists per game, and scoring. He had 15 points, six assists in this game.
10) Jeff Bezos is the CEO of Amazon; he just bought a mansion in Beverly Hills, for $165M. Not sure what the hell is in a mansion that costs that much money— pinball machines, bowling alleys, saunas, swimming pools. I’d want a movie theater and a basketball court, for $165M. Maybe even a golf course.
9) Mike Trout has been in the major leagues for eight years, and has never won a playoff game. Looking at the Angels’ pitching rotation for this year, its not looking good for 2020, either.
8) There are keeper fantasy baseball leagues that use only one league, so if you’re in an AL-only league and you had Mookie Betts, him getting traded to the Dodgers makes him ineligible, which is a total freaking disaster for your team. Wouldn’t want to be in a league like that.
7) Upsets:
— Idaho (+14) 74, Eastern Washington 71
— SIU-Edwardsville (+10) 76, Eastern Illinois 74
— UL-Monroe (+6) 74, Troy 71
— Gardner-Webb (+5) 74, Winthrop 70
— Eastern Kentucky (+4) 78, Morehead State 71
6) UCLA 86, Washington State 83 OT— Bruins were down 12 in second half, rallied to win despite a 3-10 night on foul line from freshman G Campbell, who did have four steals and three assists. Kid is shooting 63.3% on foul line for season, so he just had a bad night.
5) Austin Peay 71, Murray State 68— In three years under Matt Figger, Governors are 36-13 in Ohio Valley games, after going 27-53 the previous five years. Excellent coaching job, but there may be big-money teams looking to poach coach Figger this spring.
4) Indiana 89, Iowa 77— Hoosiers made 11-21 on arc, broke a 4-game losing skid, surviving a 38-point outburst from Luka Garza.
One of the most interesting parts about March Madness will be how all these middling Big 14 teams do in the tournament- their TV network makes every team in the league sound like the Kareem/Magic Lakers.
3) Texas State 74, Little Rock 66— This is a likely semi-final matchup in Sun Belt tourney; this loss breaks the Trojans’ 7-game win streak. Kid for Texas State scored 26 points and he didn’t start the game; the Sun Belt tournament is going to be fun.
2) Celtics 141, Clippers 133, 2OT— Between this game and the LA-Denver game Wednesday night, two good advertisements for the NBA, as they head into their week off for the All-Star Game. Hard-fought games between good teams. Fun to watch.
1) Here’s a tip for major league baseball; put an earpiece in the catchers’ ear, put a little mike on the pitcher. Then the pitcher can cover his mouth, talk to the catcher, call his pitches, and there is no issue with this BS/sign stealing stuff. It is 2020, for Pete’s sake. Let’s get creative.
