Chillicothe
officials mum
after police chief
suspended again
By Holly Zachariah
MCT Regional News

CHILLICOTHE — Chillicothe Mayor Jack
Everson suspended Police Chief Roger Moore
on Friday, but no one will say why.
City Safety-Service Director Mike Green
wouldn’t comment but released a statement
saying only that more information will come
when Everson returns on Friday from a
planned vacation and that the police department is in the “capable hands” of three other
commanders.
Green’s statement said Moore’s suspension
is a paid administrative leave. According to the
city auditor’s office, Moore’s annual salary is
$90,588.
Moore couldn’t be reached for comment.
City Law Director Sherri Rutherford, who
said she was told of the suspension on Friday,
would say only that an email went to the police
department saying that Capt. Keith Washburn
has been named acting chief. She could not
provide the email.
Washburn, through a police dispatcher,
referred questions to Green.
City records show that Moore started with
the city in 1992 and had been chief since 2009.
He has had a series of run-ins with others,
dating back two years.
Moore first found himself in the spotlight
in 2012 after he ordered an officer to cite a
woman for disorderly conduct after she made
an obscene gesture because she thought he
had improperly cut in front of her car in his
unmarked vehicle.
A judge later threw out the charge, saying
that the woman’s “one-finger salute” was constitutionally protected free speech.
Then in March 2013, Everson investigated
the chief after someone at a Chillicothe bar
called police to say Moore was arguing with
another man outside the bar and the confrontation appeared to be escalating. The altercation
was recorded on a cellphone.
Later that week, a dash-cam video surfaced
that caught Moore protesting and arguing with a
state trooper who had stopped him for speeding
in his city-issued vehicle on a Chillicothe street.
Everson suspended Moore for a week after
those incidents. He had asked other agencies
to see if any misdemeanor criminal charges
were warranted, but no other officials saw anything that rose to that level.
Later last year, another city employee reported she’d felt threatened by the chief when he
was in her office.
More recently, Moore and Rutherford had a
public squabble. In March, the chief apparently
got angry with her in court and threw a case
file.
Yesterday, Rutherford called it a “misunderstanding.”
The police chief answers to the safety-service
director and serves at the pleasure of the
mayor. It is a civil-service position, Rutherford
said, and firing him would require a specific
process.

EDITORIAL

Obamacare
going
off the rails

The renewed focus this past week on Obamacare — there is so much going so wrong in
the federal government right now that even the
health care monstrosity occasionally slips off
the radar — centered on how the government
can provide subsidies to qualified applicants.
Because the text of the law doesn’t seem to
allow those benefits to be provided by insurance exchanges operated by the federal government rather than by the states, the question is
now before the federal courts.
The program’s problems, however, run much
deeper than the logistical questions about how
benefits are dispersed. As a new report from
the Government Accountability Office shows,
there are also troubling new questions arising about who is receiving those benefits. The
short answer: We have no idea.
Attempting to test Obamacare’s security
measures, GAO officials recently attempted
to sign up for subsidized coverage using
fraudulent information. The result: In 11 of 18
instances, the fake applications were accepted.
Had these been actual scams, this handful of
cases alone would have cost taxpayers up to
$30,000.
The remaining defenders of Obamacare —
whose rationalizations grow more desperate by
the day — delivered an unimpressive rebuttal.
They noted, for instance, the GAO’s small sample size (it should be noted that this is only the
beginning of a more sweeping investigation);
there’s nothing to suggest, however, that these
problems won’t scale.
Moreover, they claimed that the likelihood
of fraud is low because the subsidy payments
are made to insurers rather than directly to
consumers. This argument boggles the mind.
People won’t be tempted to commit fraud just
because the benefit doesn’t come in the form of
a direct cash payment?
These pages have long opposed Obamacare
as a matter of principle, but we’ve only grown
more skeptical as we’ve witnessed the government’s inability to make the program function
on its own terms.
Last year, the Obama administration quietly
announced that it had no way to verify whether
enrollees on state-operated exchanges qualify
for the government aid they’re receiving, meaning they’re essentially operating on the honors
system. This new GAO report also noted that
there are about 2.6 million “inconsistencies”
in current applications and that only about
650,000 of them have been resolved.
The upshot: Taxpayer money is being dispersed with virtually no serious accountability
mechanisms.
For too long, Obamacare’s defenders have
insisted that the program be judged by its
intentions rather than its results. With every
disruption — the disastrous rollout of the
healthcare.gov website, the president’s serial
rewriting of the law, the soaring premiums —
we’ve been offered increasingly implausible
explanations as to why everything will eventually turn out fine.
This latest revelation only weakens that
already fragile argument — and strengthens
the case for repealing the law and replacing it
with a superior alternative.

THEIR VIEW

Gaza in the light of the stars

By Winslow Myers

There is a solution to the difficult problem of war, but it is
evolutionary.
That feels bizarre to us humans,
uncongenially abstract. No, we
cannot grow new brains and
hearts. But we can evolve how we
think — and feel. We can become
more responsive to what reality
keeps screaming at us at the top
of its lungs: a global population
of 7 billion and rising, along with
nuclear weapons, asserts a grand
limit, where the destructive potential of our sheer numbers and our
weapons is bigger than the delicate natural systems that support
life.
Meanwhile we go on applying
the hammer of war to ancient
grudges that war itself will never
solve, instead of expanding the
spaces where it feels safe to
engage each other from the heart.
When we boil them down, the
great religions all offer variations
of the same message: do unto others as we would want others to do
to us. Don’t use violence to resolve
conflict. Learn to want what we
have, not have what we want. Be
as good as our word, real, honest,
truthful.
Be present, for this moment is
our taste of eternity. Be inclusive,
even to the point of including
the perspective of our supposed
adversary, for he is a sibling from
the same tiny region of a vast gene
pool. Be cooperative — especially
with “strangers,” because strangers are potential friends. Act as
if we share responsibility for the
good of the whole, because we do.
This implies both a humbling
and an expansion which has
seemed, up to now, impossibly difficult: the realization that being a
good person involves something
more fundamental and “less than”
being a Jew, a Christian, a Buddhist, a Democrat, a Republican,

a Shia, a Sunni. Those identifications can be supportive of our
goodness, but often put us in violently dysfunctional conflict with
others.
So we need to know that we
emerge from a common context
that transcends those labels. We
are the outcome of 13.85 billion
years of evolution of the universe.
We are just like everyone else —
and we are a preciously unique
expression of all that process. Our
true identity is both less than the
thought-forms of nationalism/
religion/race/class and much more
than those seemingly crucial but
ultimately petty attributes.
In the record of our cultural
development, there are some hints
that we already get this: the Native
American understanding of how
we are part of the great web of
life; the Arab tradition of hospitality to strangers; the pan-religious
perspective of the contemplative
tradition that run through all
religions; the insights of poets
that tell us that if we could fully
understand our enemy, he would
no longer be our enemy; even the
clarifying rigor of the modern scientific method.
All of these glorious achievements point toward a potential
greater glory: the end of war on
this tiny planet. They help us to
see reality more clearly and act
upon that clarity for good of the
whole.
Many call this reality God, but
it doesn’t matter what we label it.
Life on earth is a vital, moving,
ever-changing process to which we
must learn to adapt and evolve,
by seeing what all humans have
in common: the same naked birth
and death; the same hopes for each
other and our children; the same
suffering and the same compassion that suffering calls forth from
doctors and nurses and teachers
and public servants.
Does this mean that we cannot

practice the rituals of our religions, rituals which give the stages
of our lives order and meaning,
the rhythm of initiation and work
and rest and meditation? Does
it mean that we are looking at a
future in which there will be no
more nations or religions or even
separate races as we know them?
Of course not. If all sects and
rituals were magically swept away,
we would renew them as a comfort
against the terrifying chaos of
life. And there will always be differences among us, more conflict
than ever, which will require the
administration of boundaries and
the exercise of compromise. But
the conditions of life today, where
all our most important problems
transcend religious and national
borders — climate change, feeding
billions of people, finding clean
water, preserving the health of the
oceans and rain forests — suggest
that while we may go on thinking
of ourselves as Israeli, a Palestinian Gazan, Socialist, Brazilian,
our primary identification must
be as responsible citizens of one
small planet. This amounts to no
less than a deep evolutionary shift.
Already it is bringing about new
political structures, such as revised
constitutions that give rights not
only to people but also to natural
systems like rivers.
The Gazans and Israelis enduring another futile round of eye-foran-eye thinking are understandably disinclined to look upward
and feel their connection to the
creativity of the spiraling galaxies
out of which they emerged; they
are desperately focused upon day
by day survival. So it is up to us
living in greater security to promote — and model — the planetary expansion of identity that will
make their agony obsolete.

BALTIMORE (AP) — Maryland
authorities said Tuesday they will
charge a man with disorderly conduct
in a cemetery for allegedly urinating on the grave of former Baltimore
Ravens owner Art Modell.
The man, who so far has been identified only as a Cleveland Browns fan,
could face up to two years in jail and
a $500 fine. He posted a video of the
incident to YouTube this month.

“Everyone who has buried a loved
one has the right to believe that their
final resting place will be treated with
respect,” Baltimore County State’s
Attorney Scott Shellenberger said in a
written statement. “Bringing charges
against this individual should act as a
deterrent to others and assure the rest
of us that no matter who you are, indecencies will not be committed against
your final resting place.”

Pelini: Get rid of Signing Day
CHICAGO (AP) — If
Nebraska coach Bo Pelini had
his way, National Signing Day
would be a thing of the past.
And the result would be an
improved recruiting process.
“You’ve made a commitment
to a young man to come play
in your program, why do we
have to wait to any certain
day?” Pelini said. “Why don’t
we just go ahead and let’s sign
on the dotted line, let’s get it
over with and move forward.”
That would be a big change
from the system in place,
where players have to wait
until the signing period even if
they’ve made an oral commitAbby Drey | Centre Daily Times | MCT
Nebraska head coach Bo Pelini watches his team during action against Penn ment. But what if they could
State at Beaver Stadium in University Park, Pa., on Saturday, Nov. 23, 2013. sign as soon as they decide on
a school?
Nebraska won, 23-20.

“I think it would slow down
some of the early offers,” Pelini
said. “I think it would slow
down some of the ridiculous
things that go on both ends, on
the institution’s side of things
and as far as the recruit’s.”
He used the word “integrity” and mentioning teaching
athletes about honoring their
commitment and “what it
means to be a teammate.”
“There’s a bigger picture
involved,” Pelini said. “And
I think sometimes the way
the recruiting process works
is that contradictory to what
we’re trying to teach these kids
and how we’re trying to develop these kids in the long run
to be successful, not only as
football players and as athletes,

but beyond, as husbands, as
fathers, and their professions.”
Northwestern coach Pat
Fitzgerald said the current system is “antiquated” and there
needs to be more accountability. His solution? The Internet.
“If I’m offering a scholarship,
I’ve got to go on a website and
say I’m offering,” Fitzgerald
said. “Bing, check the box.
Everybody in the country has
access to that website. All of
a sudden the kid might get 50

Playoffs could
create chances
for Big Ten teams
CHICAGO (AP) —
As he watched the BCS
championship game
last season, Michigan
State quarterback Connor Cook could not
help but wonder:
What if a playoff
system were in place?
Would the Spartans be
playing for the biggest
prize?
No need to wonder
anymore. The old BCS
system is out. A fourteam playoff to determine a national champion is being implemented this season, and that
could open some more
opportunities for the
Big Ten and the other
four power conferences.
“Hopefully, this will
give everyone an equal
opportunity to play for
a national championship, which everyone
wants,” Cook said
Tuesday as the Big Ten
wrapped up its two-day
media event.
It was a chance the
Spartans would have
loved to have last season.
They went 13-1,
beat Ohio State in the
Big Ten championship
game and knocked off
Stanford to capture
the Rose Bowl. But
when the BCS matchup
arrived, it was Florida
State taking on Auburn.
“You’re watching
Auburn and Florida
State and (thinking),
‘You know what? If we
were playing either
one of these teams, we
feel like we could have
won,” Cook said.
The last Big Ten
team to win a national
championship was Ohio
State in 2002, and no
one from the conference has played for one
since the 2007 season,
when the Buckeyes lost
their second straight
BCS title game.
Michigan State
comes into this season with big goals. So
does Ohio State after
going 24-2 overall and
16-0 in regular-season
conference play its first
two years under coach
Urban Meyer, but it’s
not just the traditional
powerhouses. Competitive programs that
aren’t quite marquee
names see an opportunity now that a playoff
system is in place.

How about a national
championship for
Northwestern at some
point? To coach Pat
Fitzgerald, that’s now
a possibility and his
reasoning goes beyond
unbridled enthusiasm.
He sees a more
even field and a bigger opportunity for his
program under the new
system. A big reason
is the initial Top 25
released by the selection committee in late
October will be based
solely on performance
to that point. The BCS
Top 25 was released
around the same time,
but it incorporated the
coaches and Harris
polls, which had preseason rankings. That,
in turn, might have
skewed the strength of
schedule component.
“Up until this year,
I don’t know if we
did (have a shot),”
Fitzgerald said. “I don’t
know if we did. I’m not
sexy. We’re not sexy,
you know? Our fans
don’t click on websites
enough, on dot-com
sites. All that nonsense
is gone. It’s all gone,
and I’m not saying the
BCS was bad. You’ve
got to win, period,
and I like it. I think
everybody in this room
should feel real confident that if you win the
Big Ten championship
game with a competitive schedule (you’ll be
in the playoff). And
you’ve got to win now.
Don’t think in any of
these conferences that
you’re going to be a
nine-win conference
champion or a 10-win
conference champion
and you’re going to be
in the final four; it ain’t
gonna happen.”
Under the new system, Fitzgerald said,
strength of schedule
becomes a more fluid
element. Playing an
opponent that is unexpectedly struggling
could hurt it. Then
again, a team on the
rise might give it a
boost. And what about
a team that’s shorthanded because of
injuries?

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin (19) grabs a pass over Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Leon Hall (29) during the first half at
AT&amp;T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, Saturday, August 24, 2013.

Austin eager for fresh start with Browns
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
Not too long ago, Miles
Austin was on his way
to becoming one of the
elite wide receivers in
the NFL.
But nagging hamstring
injuries got in the way,
and the two-time Pro
Bowler was released by
the Dallas Cowboys after
last season.
He has a fresh start
with the Browns, though.
And through the first
four days of camp, he’s
making the most of it.
“Paths happen in life,
things happen. You’ve
gotta overcome adversity,” Austin said. “It
doesn’t matter if you
stumble as long as you
get back up. Until I’m 60
I’m going to be trying
to continue to move in a
positive direction.”
In his breakout 2009
season, Austin caught
81 passes for 1,320
yards, third-most in
the NFL. His 11 touchdowns were tied for
fourth that season. He
followed that performance in 2010 with 69
catches for 1,041 yards
and seven touchdowns

while starting all 16
games.
Austin quickly became
quarterback Tony Romo’s
go-to option and even
managed to score seven
touchdowns in 2011 in
just 10 games, as the
hamstring injuries began
to take their toll.
Coming into the
league as an undrafted
free agent, he’s always
had the mentality to
give everything — every
game, every practice —
his all. And regardless of
his past, he’ll be fighting
as hard as anybody on
the field.
“I’m a competitive
person, I’m laid-back but
highly competitive,” Austin said. “So I’m going to
go out there and try to
win. If it’s a scrappy-type
practice, I’m going to get
scrappy.”
It also helps that Austin has come into camp
the healthiest he’s felt in
a while.
“I feel good physically,
which is a positive thing.
I think it’s the most
important thing regardless of what the actual
results are for me,”

Austin said. “I just want
to continue to get more
and more reps, more and
more plays, know the
offense more and more,
and just continue to work
on my technique.”
Aside from hydrating
as much as he can and
altering his pre- and
post-workout routine,
Austin is sure he’s the
same player he’s always
been. And he won’t be
changing anything that
helped him become the
10th undrafted free agent
in NFL history to earn
two 1,000-yard receiving
seasons.
“You run the play that’s
called. I’m not going to
change or anything like
that,” Austin said.
His fellow wide receivers are noticing the work
ethic.
“Miles is the man,”
Nate Burleson said.
“He came out here the
last couple of days and
shown why he was so
good in Dallas. He wants
to prove that he can stay
healthy and make plays.”
That means he’d be
willing to play whatever
role the Browns need

him in, especially as the
team awaits the potential suspension of wide
receiver Josh Gordon.
“I felt like sometimes I
was in the slot a lot more
often the last couple of
years in Dallas,” Austin
said. “Whatever is asked
of me I’m going to go out
there and try to make the
best of it.”
The issue with his
hamstrings will always
be lingering; they have
been too persistent in
his career to ignore. But
for now, Austin feels
good and is making his
presence known early in
Browns training camp.
Still playing the game
like an undrafted free
agent eager to prove his
worth, Austin doesn’t
consider himself a victim
of bad luck.
In fact, it’s just the
opposite. He’s just glad
to get another chance to
play the game.
“I don’t know how
much I believe in luck,”
Austin said. “If I did
believe strongly in luck,
I’d feel like I was pretty
lucky.”

Aresco touts American power as playoff era begins
NEWPORT, R.I.
(AP) — Commissioner
Mike Aresco took to the
podium at media day for
the American Athletic
Conference and talked
about power.
“We all hear a lot about
Power 5 conferences,
the Equity 5, the High
Resource 5, the Group of
5, the Autonomy 5, whatever you choose to call
them, and we consider
ourselves a power conference as well,” Aresco
said Tuesday. “We’re not
going to take a backseat
to anyone. We see the
landscape as five plus one
and we’re knocking on
the door. Our goal is to
be in the conversation as
the sixth power conference. I believe by virtue
of our performance that

spot. UCF is replacing
star quarterback Blake
Bortles, but brings back
much of the team that
went 12-1 and beat Baylor
52-42 in the postseason.
The Knights are picked
second in the American
this year behind Cincinnati, and play a loaded
nonconference schedule
that includes Penn State
in Dublin, Ireland, at Missouri and BYU.
Cincinnati (9-4 last
season) has 16 starters
back and former five-star
recruit Gunner Kiel likely
taking over at quarterback. The Bearcats also
play at Ohio State and
Miami.
“I think if you want to
talk about playoffs, then
the people that talk better
play people,” UCF coach

Pac-12 — aka the Big
5 or Power 5 — have
assured themselves spots
in the six high-profile
New Year’s bowls. The
American has not such
guarantee.
Conceivably, an AAC
team could play its way
into the semifinals. If
not, the American gets
lumped in with the Mountain West, Sun Belt, MidAmerican and Conference
USA. Only the best team,
as chosen by the playoff
selection committee, from
those five conferences
is guaranteed a spot in
those six bowls.
The American, which
adds East Carolina,
Tulane and Tulsa this season, has a couple teams
that seem well positioned
to make a run at that

we already are.”
Bold talk, indeed, from
the man in charge of the
former Big East, but this
is definitely the time to
boast.
In the American’s first
season, the re-invented
league won national
championships in men’s
and women’s basketball
(Connecticut) and had its
football champion (Central Florida) win a BCS
game.
The end of the Bowl
Championship Series
also meant the end of
automatic entry for the
American into the biggest
and most-lucrative bowl
games. In the new College Football Playoff, the
Big 12, Big Ten, Atlantic
Coast Conference, Southeastern Conference and

George O’Leary said.
“Nonconference schedule
needs to indicate what’s
going on. I don’t buy the
power stuff. We’re going
to give cost of attendance.
We’re going to give the
kids money to eat. How
much can you eat? Everything that they’re doing
we’re doing.”
Aresco said the American does not fear the
power-grab being made
by the wealthiest conferences in the NCAA’s current attempt to restructure. He said his conference supports a plan to
allow the Big Ten, Big 12,
ACC, Pac-12 and SEC a
certain level of autonomy
when it comes to making
NCAA rules.
“Although we would
prefer to be in the autonomy group, we should not
feel threatened by a certain level of autonomy for
those conferences with
significant resources who
want to do more for their
student-athletes,” he said.
“This system would not
be necessary if those conferences did not worry
that lesser resource conferences might frustrate
their efforts to do more
for their student-athletes.
We, too, as a conference
have resources and visibility. We share the same
goals and eventually we
want to be in that same
autonomous group in that

same room.”
Aresco said as long as
scholarship limits and
transfer rules are still
controlled by all FBS
members, the American
has the ability to compete
with the Big Five.
The American’s
resources, however, fall
far short of what the Big
Five conferences have
at their disposal. Those
leagues have billion dollar
TV contracts that help
provide $20-plus million
annual payouts to members.
The American’s TV
deal with ESPN is worth
$126 million over seven
years.
Still, Aresco wants to
make the case the American is closer to the ACC
than the MWC as the
playoff era begins.
“We do not accept the
notion that we’re not a
power conference or this
‘have not’ tag that some
people use,” he said.
“We have resources. We
have enormous potential.
Make no mistake. We’ll
remain an integral part of
the FBS college football
fabric. We’ll always have
naysayers. We have far
fewer now than before.
It’s our job now to prove
them wrong as we did
last year, as UCF did in
the Fiesta Bowl, as we did
in the basketball championships with UConn.”

OVP SPORTS BRIEFS
Stringers needed for 2014 football
season
GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Ohio Valley
Publishing is currently searching for two
individuals that want to be a part of the
upcoming 2013 football season in an extra
capacity.
OVP is looking for a pair of hard-working, self-motivated and football-knowledged people to help cover and write
football games in the tri-county area.
The stringer job pays $20 per game for
10 games a year. Anyone interested in
covering football games should send an

email resume to Bryan Walters at bwalters@civitasmedia.com
OVP currently has stringers for the football squads at both Meigs and Wahama.
GAHS varsity golf tryouts
GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Mandatory
practice for the Gallia Academy golf team
begins at 9 a.m. Friday, Aug. 1, at Cliffside
Golf Club. There will be an informational
meeting followed by 18 holes of play. Any
GAHS student-athlete entering grades
9-12 that wishes to qualify for the team
must report to this practice. For more

information, contact GAHS golf coach
Mark Allen at (740) 645-3569.
Eastern Fall sports passes
TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — Eastern
High School’s Fall Sports Passes go on
sale Monday Aug 4th. They may be purchased at the High School Office.
Eastern to hold OHSAA meeting
TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — Eastern
Local Students in grades 7-through-12
who want to play sports during the 20142015 school year must attend an OHSAA

mandated preseason meeting with their
parents on August 4th at 7 p.m. The
meeting will take place in Eastern High
School’s Gym.
GAHS Fall Sports practices beginning
CENTENARY, Ohio — All Gallia Academy student-athletes that plan to participate in a 2014 fall sport must have a new
physical on file at the high school to try
out. Players without a physical will not
be permitted to participate. Please make
sure that your student has turned in their
physical to the high school.

(national letter of intent)
and he can sign. After 48
hours, the offer is gone.
There’s no more commitment.”
If a school goes on
probation or a coach gets
fired, Fitzgerald said
a recruit would get a
48-hour wind to “click a
box and say I’m no longer
signed.”
NEW GROUND: The
Big Ten expanded its
footprint in the east
where there’s a large
alumni base and big markets by adding Rutgers
and Maryland. The way
coach Kyle Flood sees it,
Rutgers is expanding its
footprint, too.
“It’s also opened up
some access in the Midwest,” he said.
Rutgers, of course,
will continue to focus on
New Jersey and try to
limit out-of-state schools
from poaching players,
something that has been
an issue for the Scarlet
Knights over the years.
But Flood believes the
new conference affiliation
will open some doors for
them in the Midwest to
fill some holes.
Offensive line coach
Mitch Browning and
receivers coach Ben
McDaniels have connections in Ohio.

Playoffs

already but lost two or
their of their star players
in one of those games,
and now we beat them
by three touchdowns,”
Fitzgerald said. “Now,
the narrative from you
guys is Michigan didn’t
have A, B and C, that’s
why Northwestern won
by three touchdowns.
That’s what’s going to be
interesting to me, how
those things influence it
as opposed to what the
strength of your conference has been in the
past.”
The new system probably won’t solve everything. There will be that
fifth — and sixth, seventh
or eighth — team that
feels it deserves to be in
the field.
For fans, travel could
be an issue. If they go to
the first playoff game, will
they be able to afford a
second trip? And if they
decide to wait a round,
their team might be eliminated.
The playoffs could also
be a grind for the players,
Meyer said. Ohio State
could go from playing
rival Michigan to the Big
Ten title game, a semifinal and a national championship.
“That’s a tough road,”
said Meyer, who’s in
favor of the playoffs. “I
think the teams that play
a rival, then a championship game … at Florida,
we played FSU and then
played the SEC championship game, then played
the title game. Now you
add one more after that.
I’m not sure you’ve got
enough steam in the
engine to finish that
game.”
