Your reminder the WWL cares about only five teams: Cowboys, Lakers, Cubs, Dodgers and Yankees.
 
Slowik out as OC in Houston? He was a hot head coach candidate a year ago. Seemed like injuries and a sophomore slump by Stroud derailed that offense.
They were such a frustrating team to watch this year. I don't think they were great on offense, but they did have a ton of injuries to their wideouts, which means teams could just load up the box against Mixon. They had nine receivers on the roster - Collins started the most games (12), followed by Tank Dell (10) and Stefon Diggs (8). Xavier Hutchinson led them in GP with 16, so they didn't have a WR that played a full season.

Which is why no one should be buttmad about Liam Coen taking the money. Boy Wonder to scapegoat in a year. Damn, what a business...
 
I used to love to work the desk on Sunday night because there was so much going on that was all wire. Whatever local pro team was in season along with golf, auto racing and sometimes major tennis. We ran our best agate page of the week on Sunday nights.

Yankees-Red Sox was always the last thing to go in.

There are only 3 times I had to break a local story on a Sunday night: 1. when we learned a softball coach was accused of getting into a shoving match with a couple of players; 2. a local high school golfer drowned; 3. a former standout high school basketball player was murdered in Oklahoma.

Getting assigned to one of those Sunday nighters was easily the worst duty the Herald could dish out in my day.

The greatest Sunday night desk shift I had was when Sunday Night Baseball was rained out. The worst? 2004 ALCS Game 5 ... and I was at an Arizona paper!
 
At one of my stops, I came in Sunday night and was told that because of whatever (don't remember), I was the only rimmer. There might have been 3 or 4 normally. I nodded, took a deep breath and got focused. I was done with everything -- the entire section -- at around 8 p.m. by the time the Sunday night NFL game ended. That was the last thing. Quite a nice feeling when your co-workers tell you you kicked ass and thanks for your effort.
