The Last Night’s Game Team  


NFL (NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE)

When a quarterback wants to change the play at the line of scrimmage, he calls an audible. In yesterday’s game, Jared Goff, from the conference leading Los Angeles Rams, did just that. The play he called for all to hear was “Halle Berry.” Word made it back to the real Halle Berry who wanted to know just what kind of play the Halle Berry is. HOLLYWOOD HIKE


SIDELINE STAT

It was a case of the bad news bears yesterday for Chicago Bears (NFL) kicker Cody Parkey. He hit the field goal post (aka the uprights) not one or two times on a kick but four times in one game. Not to be outdone, his teammate Prince Amukamara took the field in a jersey with his last name misspelled. KEEPING THEM HUMBLE

University of Louisville head football coach Bobby Petrino was fired yesterday and it led to a very awkward television moment. His pre-taped show Inside the Cards with Coach Bobby Petrino was airing on TV as the news of his firing rolled across the bottom ticker. TIMING IS EVERYTHING
