Woman connected to Gallia drug bust arraigned
Amber Gillenwater

agillenwater@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — A Gallia County woman who was arrested late last month after
nearly 80 pounds of marijuana and three
quarters of a million dollars were confiscated from her home along the GalliaMeigs line was recently arraigned in the
Common Pleas Court of Gallia County.
Tammy L. Butcher, 52, was arrested
along with her husband, Dennis C. Butcher,
60, at their residence located at 38067 Zuspan Hollow Road, Middleport, Ohio, at approximately 2 a.m. on Saturday, August 24.
According to the original complaint
filed with the Gallipolis Municipal Court
in this case, the Gallia County Sheriff’s

Office, working closely with the Meigs
County Sheriff’s Office, obtained a search
warrant for the Butchers’ residence, and,
upon executing the warrant last month,
deputies seized approximately 79 pounds
of marijuana inside the residence and garage, as well as firearms and approximately $757,000 in cash.
The pair later made initial court appearances in the municipal court where
they were charged with drug possession
and trafficking. Dennis Butcher was also
charged with having weapons under disability. Tammy Butcher’s bond was set at
$50,000, 10 percent, while her husband’s
bond was set at $100,000, 10 percent.
Bond was later posted for each suspect’s
release from the Gallia County Jail.

Tammy L. Butcher

Dennis C. Butcher

Earlier this month, both cases were
bound over to the common pleas court
where they were subsequently heard by
a grand jury.
Tammy Butcher later appeared on a

summons for arraignment last week, and
pleaded not guilty to a second degree
felony charge of possessing 35,830 grams
of marijuana, as well as a second degree
drug trafficking charge for preparing the
drug for sale and distribution.
Her bond was continued from municipal
court, and she was released from custody.
A jury trial in this case has been set for
January 28. A negotiated plea agreement
may be filed by December 27.
Public defender Barbara Wallen is representing Tammy Butcher in this case.
Dennis Butcher is reportedly scheduled
to appear on a summons on October 4 in
the common pleas court for his arraignment hearing. He has reportedly retained
counsel in this case.

Less than a week since the official start of fall, signs of the season are becoming evident throughout the region.
While leaves on most trees are just beginning to acquire the fall colors of orange, red, purple and yellow, there are
many other reminders of that the new season is upon us. Mums and pumpkins line sidewalks, decorate porches and
can be found in front of many homes and businesses throughout the community. Other decorations include dried
corn stalks like these on the picnic shelter at the Forest Run United Methodist Church.

Deer Hunters receive more prime hunting time
ODNR implements
new regulations
Staff Report

tdsnews@civitasmedia.com

COLUMBUS
—
Several
changes to Ohio’s white-tailed
deer hunting regulations take effect when the first deer season
begins on Saturday, Sept. 28, according to the Ohio Department

of Natural Resources (ODNR).
New deer hunting regulations
implemented by the ODNR Division of Wildlife include extended
hunting hours during gun and
muzzleloader seasons, county
bag limits, changes to deer permit use and an antlerless-only
muzzleloader season.
“This year we were able to
add 30 minutes of prime hunting
time after sunset to every day of
the deer gun and muzzleloader
hunting seasons,” said ODNR
Director James Zehringer. “Ohio

has some of the best hunting opportunities in the country, and
this extra half hour is a golden
opportunity for hunters to extend their time in the field.”
All deer hunters are required
to have a valid Ohio hunting license and a valid deer permit. A
detailed listing of deer hunting
rules is contained in the 2013-14
Ohio Hunting Regulations, available where licenses are sold, or
wildohio.com. Ohio’s 2013-2014
deer seasons include:
Archery: Sept. 28-Feb. 2, 2014;

Antlerless muzzleloader: Oct
12-13;
Youth gun: Nov. 23-24;
Gun: Dec. 2-8;
Muzzleloader: Jan 4-7, 2014.
Deer hunting hours are 30
minutes before sunrise to 30
minutes past sunset for all deer
seasons. This includes gun and
muzzleloader seasons.
Deer bag limits are now determined by county (see map for bag
limits). The statewide bag limit is
nine deer, but a hunter cannot
exceed a county bag limit. Addi-

tional ODNR Division of Wildlife
authorized controlled hunting opportunities do not count against
statewide or county bag limits.
Hunters may harvest only one
buck in Ohio, regardless of method of take or location.
Antlerless permits will be valid
until Dec. 1, the Sunday before
the deer-gun season. Only one
antlerless permit may be used per
county, regardless of the bag limit.
Ohio is offering an antlerless

Terrorists claim 137 killed
Belpre wins
in Kenya mall attack
awards in America
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP)
— The terrorist group behind the takeover of a Nairobi mall claimed Wednesday that the Kenyan
government assault team
carried out “a demolition”
of the building, burying
137 hostages in rubble. A
government spokesman
denied the claim and said
Kenyan forces were clearing all rooms, firing as
they moved and encountering no one.
In a series of tweets
from a Twitter account
believed to be genuine,
al-Shabab also said that
“having failed to defeat
the mujahideen inside the
mall, the Kenyan govt disseminated chemical gases
to end the siege.”
Kenyan
government
spokesman Manoah Esipisu told The Associated
Press that no chemical
weapons were used — including tear gas — and
that the collapse of floors
in the mall was caused by
a fire set by the terrorists
and that the official civilian
death toll remains 61.
“Al-Shabab is known for
wild allegations and there
is absolutely no truth to
what they’re saying,” he
said. But officials said the
death count will likely rise.
Estimates varied between
only a few bodies to dozens of bodies possibly still
inside the mall.
Photos and video of the
damage showed the mall’s
top level parking lot collapsed in the middle of the
building. That brought the
second level down onto
the ground floor on top of
at least eight civilians and
one or more attackers, said
Esipisu.
The United States Ambassador to Kenya says
U.S. experts are helping
Kenyan forces search for
bodies and evidence in

the collapsed mall that
Islamic terrorists held for
four days.
Robert F. Godec said in
a statement Wednesday
that the U.S. is providing technical support and
equipment to Kenyan security forces and medical
responders.
Godec said, at the request of the Kenyan government, the U.S. is assisting the investigation
to bring the attack’s organizers and perpetrators to
justice.
Kenyan forensic experts
— aided by American FBI
agents and Israeli specialists — are working to reconstruct what happened
in the attack, said Esipisu, speaking at the mall
scene Wednesday. British
forensic experts are also
expected.
In another development,
a British man was arrested
in Kenya following the terrorist attack, Britain’s Foreign Office said.
British officials are ready
to provide assistance to the
man, the agency said in a
statement Wednesday. Officials would not provide
his name or details. He is
believed to be in his 30s.
Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper said he was arrested
Monday as he tried to
board a flight from Nairobi
to Turkey with a bruised
face and while acting suspiciously.
Kenyan officials have
said that 11 suspects in
total have been arrested in
connection with the attack,
including at least seven at
the airport. They are being
questioned about the attack, said the government
spokesman.
The International Criminal Court in the Hague has
said it is prepared to work
with Kenya to bring the attackers to justice.

in Bloom contest
BELPRE — Top honors for the prestigious
2013 America in Bloom (AIB) national awards
program have been announced and Belpre was
a winner.
Belpre earned a four bloom rating in the
4,001 to 7,000 population category. In addition, they received an outstanding achievement
award for their efforts in Community Involvement. Outstanding achievement awards only
go to one participant among all the America
in Bloom entrants across all population categories. They also received a special mention for
their floral displays.
Belpre was judged on six criteria: overall impression, environmental awareness, heritage,
urban forestry, landscape, and floral displays,
across four sectors: municipal, residential, commercial, and community involvement.
Evelyn Alemanni and Billy Butterfield, two
specially trained AIB judges, visited towns of
similar populations and spent two days touring
each town, meeting municipal officials, residents, and volunteers. Other competitors in the
4,001 to 7,000 category were Estes Park, Col.;
Greendale, Ind., and the University of Findlay in
Findlay, Ohio.
Alemanni and Butterfield were very impressed with the city’s floral displays and commented, “Belpre’s gateways are attractively
landscaped with a variety of blooming shrubs
and perennials, creating an inviting entry at four
points. The high school, fire station, and several businesses made an effort to create visual
interest with colorful flowers. Belpre’s parks are
enhanced by hanging baskets and planters, notably the planters made of recycled tires painted
and planted by students. Kudos to the Women’s
Club, Master Gardeners, Garden Club, and
Bob’s Market for all their efforts.”
Registrations for the 2014 national awards program can be submitted until Feb. 28, 2014. Eligible participants include towns, cities, college and
university campuses, business districts, military
installations, and recognized neighborhoods of
large cities.
America in Bloom is an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to promoting
nationwide beautification programs and personal
and community involvement through the use of
flowers, plants, trees, and other environmental
and lifestyle enhancements. America in Bloom
provides educational programs, resources, and
the challenge of a friendly competition between
participating communities across the country.

Cruz, Lee plan on ‘Obamacare’ Analysis: Kenya attack a
shift for Somali rebels?
unnerves some in GOP
Donna Cassata

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Ted
Cruz and Mike Lee stand
as the Senate’s dynamic
duo for conservatives, crusading against President
Barack Obama’s health care
law while infuriating many
congressional Republicans
with a tactic they consider
futile, self-serving and detrimental to the party’s political hopes in 2014.
Cruz, the Texan who’s
been anything but a waityour-turn freshman, and
Lee, the tea party-backed giant slayer from Utah’s 2010
election, spent months this
summer pressuring Republicans to link any stopgap
spending bill to keep the
government running with
permanently starving President Barack Obama’s health
overhaul of money.
The two former Supreme Court clerks are determined to reverse what
the conservative court of
Chief Justice John Roberts
upheld in 2012 — Obama’s
signature domestic law.
The senators scored
a win Friday when the
Republican-led
House,
pushed by rambunctious
rank-and-file
members,
passed a spending measure that would unravel
the law. But the approach
faces near-certain defeat in
the Democratic-controlled
Senate, where lawmakers
in both parties complain
that Cruz and Lee have
pushed a losing cause.
In the meantime, their
strategy has roiled many
in the GOP, with plenty
of public and private carping. House Speaker John
Boehner, R-Ohio, subtly
challenged Cruz and Lee
to back up their words
next week.
“I expect my Senate colleagues to be up for the
battle,” Boehner said.
Several
Republicans
complain that the tactic
could lead to a government
shutdown on Oct. 1, the
start of the new budget
year, that would undercut
the GOP politically as the

party faces a Democratic
president weakened by
missteps on Syria.
They question Cruz and
Lee’s uncompromising approach, which has raised
money for outside conservative groups and provided
them with more than 1
million signatures on a
“Defund It” petition; those
are names that could be
mined for future fundraising. Cruz’s recent political
moves have stirred talk of a
2016 presidential run.
Some Republicans privately fume that Cruz
and Lee, stars of “Defund
Obamacare” ads from
the Senate Conservatives
Fund, come off as the only
two Republicans opposed
to the health care law when
in fact Republicans were
united for months against
Obama and the Democrats
in trying to head off the
law in 2009 and still vehemently oppose it.
Looking ahead to next
year’s elections, Republican Sen. Bob Corker said
he held a fundraiser at his
Tennessee home for the
state’s senior senator, Lamar Alexander, a steady
conservative who is seeking a third term.
“Now he’s (Alexander)
using that money to defend himself against ads
that Republicans are helping create,” said Corker
said, questioning whether
the defund ads were “a
thoughtful way of going
about changing policy.”
Alexander has countered
any misperceptions with a
commercial spot that highlights his 23 votes against
the health care law, describes him as leading the
“conservative fight against
Obamacare” and shows
his winter 2010 exchange
with Obama over premium
costs at a White House forum with lawmakers.
The internecine fight,
brutally on display in GOP
primaries in Kentucky,
South Carolina and Tennessee, could undermine the
GOP’s legitimate shot at
winning a Senate majority
next year. Twenty-one Dem-

ocratic seats are on state
ballots next year compared
with 14 Republican, and the
GOP will need to gain six
seats to win control of the
100-member chamber.
“I hate Obamacare,” said
Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah.
“I think it’s one of the
worst things that’s been
peddled off on America. I
don’t blame anybody for
doing what they can to try
to kill it, but there should
be an end game.”
Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., called the combination
of defunding “Obamacare”
and the spending bill a “political ploy.”
Still, Cruz and Lee press
ahead, with a showdown
in the Senate this coming
week. Conservatives and
tea partyers are ecstatic.
JoAnn Fleming, an activist in the Kingwood
Tea Party in East Texas,
praised Cruz for his singular quest. She commended
him for cutting through the
noise, which she defined as
“those people in the Republican Party who always
have an excuse for not doing the right thing.”
“They think a freshman
is just supposed to come to
Washington and sit down
and shut up, and Ted Cruz
is not at all like that,” said
Fleming, who also heads
the citizen’s advisory committee to the Tea Party
Caucus in the Texas Legislature. “We didn’t elect
him to go to Washington
to just sit down and fall in
line with the rest of them.
And so he’s done exactly
what we sent him to Washington to do.”
Fleming said people
lined up three hours to four
hours in advance for one of
Cruz’ “defund” tour stops
this summer in Texas. An
activist for 21 years, Fleming said she never saw anything like it.
The 42-year-old Cruz
stunned the Republican
establishment in 2012,
capturing the GOP nomination from Lt. Gov. David
Dewhurst, who had the
money and the backing of
Gov. Rick Perry.

AP Intelligence Writer

WASHINGTON — The White House
is under pressure to ramp up counterterrorism action against al-Shabab in Somalia following the al-Qaida-linked group’s
deadly attack on an upscale Kenyan shopping mall that has killed and injured dozens, including Americans.
Republican lawmakers Sunday said the
attack showed al-Qaida is growing in size
and strength, belying the Obama administration’s claims that it has grown weaker.
“They’re not on the decline,” said Sen.
Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, the ranking
Republican on the Homeland Security
Committee, on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
”They’re on the rise, as you can see from
Nairobi.”
Al-Shabab militants launched their assault on Saturday, storming the mall with
grenades and gunfire. Kenyan security
forces launched a “major” assault late
Sunday on the mall, where the militants
are still holding an unknown number
of hostages, trying to end the two-day
standoff that had already killed at least
68 people. The Kenya Defense Forces say
their troops have rescued “most” hostages and have taken control of most of the
mall in Nairobi.
State Department spokesman Marie
Harf said five U.S. citizens were among
the more than 175 injured, but no Americans are among those reported killed.
Harf said U.S. law enforcement, military
and civilian personnel in Nairobi are providing advice and assistance as requested
by the Kenyan authorities.
U.S. counterterrorism officials throughout the Obama administration have debated whether to target the Somalia-based
rebel group more directly, especially after
it merged with al-Qaida in early 2012. But
U.S. action has been limited to the occasional drone strike or raid when a particularly high-value al-Qaida target comes into
view, while relying primarily on assisting
Somali and African peacekeeping forces to
carry out the day-to-day fight.
That decision was partly driven by
the fear that directly targeting al-Shabab
would spur the group to expand its own
target list, striking at U.S. diplomatic
posts overseas and calling on members
of the Somali diaspora inside the U.S. to
carry out attacks, according to multiple
current and former U.S. counterterrorism
officials. They all spoke on condition of
anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss publicly internal policy
decisions.
A White House official said Sunday that
the administration had taken a “balanced
approach.”
“It’s not a question of either direct action or playing a supporting role,” Na-

Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging
the freedom of speech, or of the
press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a
redress of grievances.

tional Security Council spokesman Jonathan Lalley said by email Sunday. “Our
approach has been to work to enable and
support African partners,” as well as prosecuting some al-Shabab members and supporters, he said.
“The U.S. military has also taken direct
action in Somalia against members of alQaida — some of them members of alShabab — engaged in efforts to carry out
terrorist attacks against the United States
and U.S. interests,” Lalley said.
But that effort in Somalia pales next
to, say, the hundreds of U.S. drone strikes
against militants in Yemen and Pakistan
during the Obama administration.
The Somali rebel group has similarly
limited its own target list to Somali officials or troops, and African Union
peacekeeping troops, to avoid drawing
the U.S. counterterrorism machine into
a full-fledged fight, the U.S. officials say.
Though headed by hard-core Islamist militants, al-Shabab’s more moderate membership has successfully argued to keep the
group focused on overthrowing the U.S.backed Somali government, rather than
taking on the mantle of al-Qaida’s larger
war with the west.
The group did claim responsibility for
twin suicide bombings in Uganda in 2010
that killed more than 70 people, but that
was seen as a reaction to Uganda providing the bulk of African peacekeeping forces in Somalia.
Similarly, al-Shabab said this weekend’s
attack was in retribution for Kenyan forces’ 2011 push into Somalia.
“You reach the population who says the
cost we’re bearing for this operation in Somalia is too much,” said al-Shabab expert
Daveed Gartenstein-Ross, of the Washington-based Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “From Shabab’s calculus, they
may well think it’s worth inflicting a heavy
cost on Kenya,” even if it draws U.S. ire.
But the scale and technical sophistication of the Nairobi attack could signal a
change in al-Shabab’s aspirations, according to Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., possibly
increasing the group’s direct threat to the
United States. King said the State Department had not initially wanted to declare
al-Shabab a terrorist organization because
it saw the group focusing on tribal issues
within Somalia. It was declared a terror
organization in 2008.
“Now, we see, by attacking into Kenya they certainly have an international
dimension to them,” King said Sunday
on ABC’s “This Week.” ”We’re talking
about very significant terrorist groups
here which are showing a capacity to attack outside of their borders and actually
recruit people from here in the United
States,” said King, who serves on the
House Intelligence Committee.

because he was distraught over his
divorce and had likely shot Bryant to
draw police to his home in hopes they
would shoot and kill him.
He said he wasn’t a racist and
didn’t remember directing slurs at
Bryant before shooting him. He said
he couldn’t say why he didn’t shoot
two white neighbors he encountered
ahead of Bryant.

“No, I don’t forgive him,” she said
as she fought back tears. “Maybe one
day I will, but right now I don’t.”
At his clemency hearing, Mitts had
pointed to a virtually clean record before and after the day of the shootings
and said he had found God in prison.
After his conviction, he spoke of receiving a Bible from Glivar’s mother,
Helen, and sister and said that the
two had succeeded in getting him to
seek repentance.
Helen Glivar sat quietly during the

Asked afterward if she had anything to say about her son’s murder

Four Turns

Tracks on Tap

OF THE CHARTS Matt Kenseth’s
1 TOP
and Kyle Busch’s one-two showing in
Loudon marked the third time this
season Joe Gibbs Racing teammates
have swept the top two positions.
Kenseth and Busch were first and
second last week at Chicagoland,
while Kenseth and Denny Hamlin finished first and second at Darlington.

MAKES PERFECT Ac2 PRACTICE
cording to Dustin Long’s Fire in the

Hole blog, NASCAR will hold a test
session at Charlotte Motor Speedway
on Oct. 13 in preparation for the 2014
season. Currently, no rule or spec
changes to the Gen-6 cars have been
announced.

$8 MILLION SERIES
3 WANTED:
SPONSOR NASCAR announced last

week that Nationwide Insurance will
not return as series sponsor for
NASCAR’s “junior circuit” following
the 2014 season. The Sports Business
Journal reports that “the company
plans to increase its spending in the
sport by sponsoring a Sprint Cup
team, buying media, cutting track
deals and maintaining its position as
NASCAR’s official insurer.” Nationwide
is currently in its sixth year of sponsoring the series.

IN THE MAKING Making his
4 STAR
second Nationwide Series start of

2013 and the 15th of his career, 19year-old Ryan Blaney notched his first
career victory on Saturday. Driving the
No. 22 Discount Tire Ford for Penske
Racing, Blaney won the Kentucky 300
at Kentucky Speedway, holding off
NNS regulars Austin Dillon and Sam
Hornish Jr. for a 2.017-second win.
Blaney led 96 of 200 laps.

Chasing Kenseth
Matt Kenseth earns
seventh win of 2013 in
500th career Cup start
By MATT TALIAFERRO
Athlon Sports Racing Editor

It should come as no surprise
that a driver who has spent a career
flying under the radar in the
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is at
his best while the sport churns in a
chaotic whirlwind of controversy.
Welcome to winning, Matt
Kenseth-style.
As fallout from a Richmond
rumpus continues to rain down on
the sport, Kenseth just keeps on
winning — while staying well
above the fray.
The first-year Joe Gibbs Racing
driver won Chase race No. 2 on
Sunday in the Sylvania 300 at
New Hampshire Motor Speedway,
his second straight victory in as
many playoff events. He did so in
his milestone 500th Cup start — a
feat the 41-year-old summed up in
his classic deadpan manner, saying, “All this really means is that
I’m old.”
If experience equates to success,
then the 13-driver Chase field
should be on high alert. Further,
Kenseth’s wildly successful
maiden voyage in JGR’s Toyotas
— the victory in Loudon was his
career-best seventh of the season
— should have the competition
downright nervous. After all, he already holds a full-race worth of a
points lead over one-third of the
competition. Not that Kenseth is
preoccupied with such stats.
“My outlook or approach is really not any different, honestly,”
Kenseth said of his hot start to the
10-race playoff. “I know it’s kind
of cliché, but it really is one week
at a time, especially right now. If
you get down toward the end (of
the Chase) and you’re lucky
enough to have a lead or something, maybe you start looking at
that more.”
His tempered approach is predicated on a points format that
awards consistency; where poor
finishes are more damaging than
sterling finishes rewarded.
“Two whole months of racing is
a lot of racing, and in this system
one bad finish and you’re behind,”
said Kenseth.
When examining the upcoming
slate of races, though, poor finishes aren’t the first thing that
come to mind for Kenseth. He has
two wins at Dover, the next stop
on tour; he’s won the last two visits to Kansas; was a 2011 winner
at Charlotte and is the defending
race-winner at Talladega.
“Again, anything can happen

Athlon Sports Racing Editor

The repercussions of race manipulation at Richmond International
Raceway on Sept. 7, by Michael
Waltrip Racing — as well as halfhearted acknowledgement by the
sanctioning body that something was
afoot with Penske and Front Row
Racing — continue to rock the sport.
On Sept. 19, longtime MWR partner NAPA Auto Parts posted via
Facebook its intention to leave the
organization at season’s end. The
departure leaves a sponsorship void
on the No. 56 Toyota driven by
Martin Truex Jr. — and Truex’s future with the company up in the air.
It also raises questions as to
whether NAPA — one of only a few
companies that provide full funding
to a race team — will continue its
participation in the sport.

Crew Chief’s Take: “They don’t call it
‘Bristol on steroids’ for nothing. Probably
the most physically demanding race on
the schedule for both the car and the
driver. The loads that the car and driver
endure when they drop into the corners
there are as intense as anywhere we go
on. Fortunately, the track is concrete, so
the car will stay more consistent throughout the day, but it’s just a tough track on
equipment. The biggest challenge is the
tire we have now — it lays the rubber on
top of the track so the driver has to kind of
work around that as the day progresses.”

anywhere,” said Kenseth, downplaying the advantageous schedule. “You can be at your best track
and have whatever happen and get
a bad finish. But certainly (I) have
a lot of confidence in the next
three tracks coming up.”
The first speedbump — Talladega’s crapshoot aside — comes
fives weeks down the road, when
the sport hits the half-mile Martinsville Speedway. It’s a venue
where Kenseth has yet to record a
win and has only three top-5
showings in 27 starts. Even then,
he doesn’t seem overly concerned,
saying, “I’m actually pretty confident going to Martinsville.”
And why not? Four of Kenseth’s
2013 wins have come at racetracks
— Chicagoland, Darlington, Kentucky and now New Hampshire —
where he’d failed to post a win
previously. So what’s different this
season than in years past?
“I think a lot of this sport is about
combinations,” Kenseth explained.
“When you think of Jimmie (Johnson) and Chad (Knaus), Ray
Evernham and Jeff Gordon, there
wasn’t anybody that could beat
them. It has to start with the organization that has the fast cars and
have all that stuff — but you’ve got
to have the right group (of people),
and I’m really fortunate right now
to have the right group.”

Included in that “group” —
though relatively distanced — has
been Kenseth’s chief Chase challenger, teammate Kyle Busch, who
finished second the last two weeks
to the No. 20 car. And that’s kept
Kenseth honest.
“Matt is just executing at the end
of the (race), which is what you’re
supposed to do,” Busch said.
“I won eight of the first 26 (in 2008)
and then fell flat on my face (in the
Chase). Matt is doing a really good
job — he’s put it all together.”
So while the questionable events
that transpired in Richmond’s
transfer race continue to demand a
white-hot spotlight within the
sport, the pre-Chase favorites of
Kenseth, Busch and the sleeping
giant of Johnson methodically
rack up top-flight finishes.
That fact isn’t lost on the current
points-leader:
“When you look at what the 48
(Johnson) can do and the 18
(Busch) — and they’re going to
be good everywhere — you’d
better be good everywhere if
you’re thinking that you’re going
to be a contender.”
There are still eight long
weeks remaining in NASCAR’s
2013 championship chase, but as
is typically the case, those contenders have already put the
field on notice.

Sponsors put NASCAR, teams on high-alert
By MATT TALIAFERRO

SPRINT CUP SERIES

During the race weekend in
Loudon, N.H., Scott Henderson,
president of 5-Hour Energy, made
some diacritic comments concerning
his company’s involvement in the
sport, though they seemed directed
more at NASCAR and its leadership
than MWR and the No. 15 team,
which it currently sponsors.
When asked about NASCAR
CEO Brian France’s decision to expand the Chase for the Championship field to 13 drivers,
Henderson said, “There’s a lot of
talk about integrity. When the guy
who’s in charge can say, ‘I can do
whatever I want and I’m going to
do it and I just did,’ I wonder about
integrity. I want to make sure we
can win in this sport, OK?”
In a press release, 5-Hour Energy
stated that it “is still evaluating its
ongoing participation in NASCAR.
A decision is not expected until the

2013 racing season is over.”
Rumors continue to swirl as to
whether Truex or Clint Bowyer,
driver of the No. 15, will return to
MWR next season. For his part,
team co-owner Michael Waltrip reiterated that his organization had
“no master plan” to manipulate the
race’s outcome and that the company would again field three cars in
2014. He did, however, say Truex
would not be held back if the driver
found another ride.
Aaron’s, which sponsors the No.
55 MWR Toyota and Brian Vickers, has stated its intent to return.
Each MWR team was penalized
50 points and fined following the
Richmond race. The penalty
knocked Truex out of the Chase.
Five days later in an unprecedented step, France expanded the
Chase field to 13 drivers, admitting Jeff Gordon.

Classic Moments
Dover International Speedway
Virginia native Junie Donlavey
fielded entries for over 50 years in
NASCAR’s top division — from Joe
Weatherly and LeeRoy Yarbrough to
Ricky Rudd and Ken Schrader and a
host of drivers in between — but his
Dover mount in May 1981 might have
been his most memorable.
Jody Ridley drove Donlavey’s No. 90
Ford to victory in the Mason-Dixon
500 that day, scoring both men’s lone
Cup victory.
Neil Bonnett, Cale Yarborough and
David Pearson all took turns at the
front, but each dropped an engine
while leading. Ridley finally emerged
with the lead — although Bobby Allison’s car owner, Harry Ranier,
claimed that NASCAR’s timing and
scoring had incorrectly placed Ridley
ahead of his No. 28 Buick — and led
the final 20 laps to score an unlikely
win over Allison, Dale Earnhardt, D.K.
Ulrich and Rudd.

Athlon Fantasy Stall
Looking at Checkers: They don’t come
any hotter than Matt Kenseth, and he’s
claimed 10 top 5s (two wins) in his last 15
visits to the “Monster Mile.”
Pretty Solid Pick: And then there’s Jimmie Johnson and his seven Dover wins,
which tie him with Bobby Allison and
Richard Petty for most all-time.
Good Sleeper Pick: Rookie Ricky Stenhouse Jr. owns 12th- and 13th-place
showings in two Cup starts at Dover.
Runs on Seven Cylinders: Kasey Kahne’s
21.5-place average finish at Dover (six
DNFs) do not bode well for the driver that
sits 13th in the Chase standings.
Insider Tip: Track position and qualifying are important in Dover’s tight confines, because when accidents happen
they typically sweep up numerous cars.

Year after 70-63,
fun has left West
Virginia...B2

Mets outlast punchless Reds, 1-0
CINCINNATI (AP) — The
Reds failed to come up with the
run they needed to keep their
hopes of a division championship alive. They still hope to play
the NL wild card game at home.
Daisuke Matsuzaka scattered
four hits in 7 2-3 shutout innings
to win his third consecutive
start, outdueling Cincinnati’s
Mat Latos in the New York Mets’
1-0 victory over the Reds on
Wednesday.
The Reds came into the game
in third place in the Central Division and second in the wildcard standings, one game behind
Pittsburgh. The Pirates and Reds

end the regular season with a
three-game series starting Friday
in Cincinnati. The Reds can only
tie St. Louis but the Cardinals
own the tiebreaker by winning
the season series 11-8.
Eric Young Jr. drove in the
only run for the Mets, who won
two of three in the series.
“We have to find a way to
get that big hit,” Reds manager
Dusty Baker said. “This team
(Reds) seems to take the hard
road most of the time.
“It is very important to have
the home-field advantage but it’s
not impossible no matter where
you play.”

Baker isn’t worried about the
team’s “sense of urgency.”
“No matter how urgent you
feel, you can’t hit the ball where
you want to,” he said. “If you
could do that, you could feel the
sense of urgency and get it done
all the time. I think people use
that term too much. Go into that
clubhouse. You will see the guys
are down but not out.
“It’s OK to be down, just don’t
stay down. Anybody that has
played sports knows that urgency does not help you. If anything
it hurts you. I don’t even like that
term. We don’t like to lose. We
hate to lose.”

Matsuzaka (3-3) allowed two
walks and hit a batter. He struck
out six and evened his record
after three losses and a no-decision in his first four starts after
joining the Mets in August.
He left the game with a runner on second and two outs in
the eighth. Pedro Feliciano came
on to walk Shin-Soo Choo before
getting Joey Votto to fly out to
center fielder Juan Lagares for
the fourth time in four at bats.
LaTroy Hawkins pitched the
ninth for his 13th save.
The shutout loss was Cincinnati’s 11th of the season, after
only four last season.

The Mets (73-85) earned their
10th shutout, three fewer than
last season, and New York finished its road schedule with a
winning record (41-40) — wrapping up a 5-1 trip.
Before a crowd of 26,223, which
lifted Cincinnati’s season attendance to a Great American Ball
Park-record 2,371,103, the Mets
pushed across a run in the third.
Latos hit Wilfredo Tovar to
open the inning. Tovar went
to second on Matsuzaka’s sacrifice and moved to third on a
passed ball before scoring on
Young’s single to right through
a drawn-in infield.

RACINE, Ohio — So much for revenge.
The Southern volleyball team hosted Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division leader Waterford Tuesday night
looking to avenge the Lady Tornadoes September 4, loss
at WHS, but the Lady Cats had another idea.
Waterford (12-2, 10-0 TVC Hocking) defeated Southern (6-8, 6-4) by a 25-18 margin in the opening set, a 2516 margin in the second set and a sizable 25-10 margin in
the third set.
Southern’s service attack was led by freshman Marlee
Maynard, who marked six points in the loss. Katie Jenkins
and Hannah Hill each had three points, while Ali Deem
and Celestia Hendrix both had two. Madison Maynard
rounded out the Lady Tornadoes scoring with one point.
Madison Sury led Waterford with 16 points, followed
by Dani Drayer with 11. Taylor Hilverding marked nine
service points, Haley McCutcheon had six, while Laura
Hill rounded out the total with four points.
The Lady Tornadoes net attack was led by Hendrix
with nine kills and Jordan Huddleston with five. Darien
Diddle and Madison Maynard each had two kills, while
Jansen Wolfe and Brynn Harris each had one kill. Hendrix led defense with one kill, while Deem had 14 digs.
Jenkins had a team-high eight assists, while Marlee Maynard marked five.

Defenders fend off Calvary, 2-0

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio —
So nice, they did it twice.
T.G. Miller scored two
first half goals on a pair
of Evan Bowman assists,
and the Ohio Valley Christian soccer team made
that early lead stick Tuesday night following a 2-0
triumph over visiting Calvary Baptist Academy in a
non-conference contest in
the Old French City.
The host Defenders
(4-4-1) outshot the Patriots (2-3-2) by a 19-12
overall margin, which
included a 14-12 edge in
shots on goal. OVCS had
two of the three corner
kicks in the contest.
Ohio Valley Christian
took a 1-0 advantage in
the seventh minute after Miller netted a pass
from Bowman 20 yards
out from midfield. The
same everythin occurred
again in the 23rd minute,
allowing the hosts to secure a 2-0 edge at the intermission.
CBA missed its golden
opportunity to cut the
score in half with 15 minutes left in regulation, as
Carter Bentley bounced a
shot off the crossbar that
ricocheted away from the
OVCS goal.
Marshall Hood made
12 stops in net for the
Defenders, while Griffin
Holstein stopped a dozen

South Point nips
Blue Devils, 2-1

ahawley@civitasmedia.com

SOUTH POINT, Ohio — Perhaps
the Blue Devils just ran out of time.
The Blue Devils didn’t get on the
board until the final three minutes
of the match Tuesday night in a nonconference loss to South Point in
Lawrence County.
The Pointers (9-1-1) got the ball
rolling in the 23rd minute with a
goal from Alex Whitt on the assist
from Jake Helton. Whitt scored
again, this time on the assist from
Ryan Khounlavong, in the 49th min-

ute to push the SPHS lead to 2-0.
The Blue Devils (3-6-0) finally got
on the board in the 77th minute when
sophomore Logan Carpenter found
the back of the net off of the Jacob
Click assist. GAHS was unable to
score again and the Pointers notched
their ninth win of the season.
Gallia Academy senior Alex Greer
had six saves in goal, while South
Point’s Brady Rickard had five saves.
The Pointers held a 10-3 advantage
in shots on goal in the victory. This is
the lone scheduled meeting between
South Point at Gallia Academy this
season.

West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen talks with reporters at the Big 12 media day at the Omni
Hotel in Dallas, Texas, Tuesday, July 23.

Year after 70-63, fun Miller or Guiton? Ohio
has left West Virginia State must choose starter
Ralph D. Russo

The Associated Press

It was just about a year
ago that Morgantown,
W.Va., was the happiest
place in college football.
On Sept. 29, 2012, West
Virginia beat Baylor 70-63
in the Mountaineers; first
Big 12 game. Geno Smith
was the Heisman Trophy
front-runner. A trip to Austin, Texas, was next on the
schedule.
West Virginia football
was on the rise — or so it
seemed.
A year later, the Mountaineers are a mess, 2-2
with wins over William &amp;
Mary and Georgia State
and coming off a 37-0 loss
to Maryland.
“The one that can be
blamed more than anybody
is me, that’s for dang sure,”
West Virginia coach Dana
Holgorsen said Monday on
the Big 12 teleconference.
“That’s not an acceptable
performance.”
The week after 70-63,
WVU beat Texas to improve to 5-0 and move to
No. 5 in the country. Fans
and media were lauding
the offensive wizardry of
Holgorsen, the Red Bullchugging, Mike Leach
disciple.
Since then West Virginia
is 4-8.
Holgorsen was brought

to West Virginia as offensive
coordinator/coachin-waiting after the 2010
season, but quickly that
plan went out the window
and he replaced coach Bill
Stewart before ever working a game as the Mountaineers’ offensive coordinator.
The offense looked great
the first two seasons with
Smith playing quarterback,
throwing the ball to Tavon Austin and Stedman
Bailey. That crew is in the
NFL now, and Holgorsen’s
offensive acumen is being
challenged as he tries to
rebuild.
“I’ve got to do a better
job of getting these guys
prepared to play,” he said
in response to a question
about his quarterbacks, but
then quickly took it a step
forward. “I’ve got to do a
better job of calling plays.
I’ve got to do a better job
of all three sides of the ball,
getting motivated and prepared to play. I didn’t do a
very good job of that last
week.
“So it’s going to start
with me and I’m going to
do a better job of it this
week.”
No. 11 Oklahoma State
comes to Morgantown this
week, followed by a trip
to No. 19 Baylor (3-0) on
Oct. 5.
For the Bears, 70-63 was

the first of four straight
losses last season. It was
Baylor that appeared to be
sliding back to irrelevance,
a season after Robert Griffin III brought the Heisman to Waco, Texas.
But moving on from
RG3 wasn’t all that bad for
Baylor. Coach Art Briles,
whose career intersected
with Holgorsen’s at Texas
Tech under Leach, had a
seasoned replacement for
Griffin in Nick Florence.
Even when Baylor was
losing the offense never
stopped humming. The
Bears finished last season
with four straight victories, including a 49-26 beat
down of UCLA in the Holiday Bowl.
This season, with another new starting quarterback — junior Bryce Petty
— Baylor’s offense has
spent the first month of
the season toying with inferior competition, putting
up silly stats (751 yards
per game but only 26 minutes of possession time per
game) and becoming the
first FBS team to score 60
or more points in its first
three games of a season
since LSU in 1930.
Briles went 8-16 in his
first two seasons at Baylor,
building slowly and steadily at program that had been
in a doormat for decades.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A lot
of top college teams have trouble finding one quality quarterback.
Ohio State has two.
The problem for Ohio State coach
Urban Meyer is he can only play one
at a time and both have earned the
starting job.
It’s just one more major thing to
worry about for Meyer and the fourthranked Buckeyes heading into a major
matchup with No. 23 Wisconsin.
Who starts? Who plays the most?
Who finishes?
Kenny Guiton is coming off three
terrific games and back-to-back Big
Ten offensive player of the week honors. But he likely is behind star Braxton Miller, recovering from a sprained
knee ligament
It’s a luxury, but at the same time …
it’s complicated.
“I think if (Braxton) has a great
week of practice he will (start),” Meyer said earlier this week. “I don’t want
to name him a starter yet because I
don’t know. And I want to make sure
I’m doing right by Kenny Guiton. So
it’s more complicated than that. However, those decisions will be made
later in the week.”
On the Buckeyes’ most recent twodeep chart they’re listed as co-starters.
Now, it’s not as if the offense can’t
run a play until it knows who its triggerman will be. Neither candidate
just came in off the waiver wire. All of
those practices in the heat of August
and throughout the past three seasons have created a familiarity which
is helpful.
“Our offense really doesn’t change
a ton,” receivers coach Zach Smith
said of the nuances between Miller
and Guiton. “There may be certain
plays that we like better with Braxton
or that we like better with Kenny.”
Miller has started for over two
years. He was the Big Ten’s offensive
player of the year in 2012 while leading the Buckeyes to a 12-0 record.
The 6-foot-2, 215-pound junior, who
sprained the medial-collateral ligament in his left knee early in the second game of the season, needs just
13 yards to pass Cornelius Greene
as Ohio State’s rushing leader among
quarterbacks (2,080 yards).
Of course, as that last note indicates, Miller’s forte is scrambling or
taking off on designed runs. He is
also a serviceable passer, but his injury may limit his ability to make cuts
— his strength.
If he is even slightly hindered in
that regard, Meyer may elect to go
with Guiton.
An overlooked high school player
from Texas, Guiton was stuck on the
sideline for most of his first three

seasons at Ohio State before he
was called on to replace the injured
Miller in the fourth quarter of last
year’s game against Purdue. The 6-3,
208-pound fifth-year senior led an
improbable 61-yard drive in the final minute, completing a touchdown
pass and then converting on a twopoint conversion pass with 3 seconds
left to force overtime. The Buckeyes
ended up winning, preserving their
perfect record.
When Miller went down early in
the San Diego State game, Guiton
came in as if he had been ordained as
one of the Heisman Trophy favorites,
not Miller. Things haven’t changed in
the two games since, either. He’s completing better than 68 percent of his
passes for 13 touchdowns with two
interceptions. He’s also run for 186
yards and a score.
Sometimes it seems as if their
teammates have difficulty differentiating between the two.
“Kenny G provides a lot of excitement with his play because everybody’s excited to see Kenny do well.
He’s a great guy, even better player.
‘Kenny G’s out there!’, the crowd’s
going, ‘Kenny G!’” center Corey
Linsley said. “But (Braxton) has got
that quickness, that spark, that no
one else in the nation has. You can
talk about (Texas A&amp;M’s Heisman
Trophy winner) Johnny Manziel all
you want, there’s nobody out there
quicker at the quarterback position
than Braxton.”
Wisconsin isn’t holding its breath
to find out either way.
“They’re both good players,” firstyear Badgers coach Gary Andersen
said. “It doesn’t change our approach
whatsoever with whichever quarterback is playing.”
Meyer says he and his assistants
have spent “hours and hours of discussion the last few days” on the
quarterbacks. They’ve weighed the
pros and cons of starting and playing each.
They’ve even looked at playing
them at the same time, although
that just created more and longer
discussions.
“I don’t know if that’s reality,” Meyer said of playing them together. “I
keep thinking, ‘I just love both those
players.’ If Kenny was a better wide
receiver than one of our receivers, he
would be playing receiver; if Braxton
was a better running back (than our
running backs, then he’d be playing).
But they are not.
“And so someone has to come off
the field. I just I haven’t decided how
we are going to do it.”
Game time is 8 p.m., Coach.

CHARLESTON, W.Va.
(AP) — A shutout loss
at Maryland was no fun
to watch the second time
around for West Virginia’s
players.
The Mountaineers are
in looking for answers to
a several problems on offense with games looming against three straight
ranked opponents, starting
Saturday against No. 11
Oklahoma State.
Wide receiver K.J. Myers said after seeing the
Maryland game film that
he’s never been a part of
something like the 37-0
loss to the Terps. Nor has
he been part of an offense
that had only one wide receiver catch a pass.

“We’ve got to switch
something up,” Myers
said. “We’ve got to do
something different with
our approach this week
and just have to get better.”
If not, the Mountaineers
are in for a difficult stretch
that also includes tough
tests at No. 19 Baylor on
Oct. 5 and at home Oct. 19
against No. 24 Texas Tech.
West Virginia (2-2, 0-1
Big 12) was limited to 175
total yards at Maryland and
are last in the Big 12 in scoring at 18 points per game.
Oklahoma State (3-0,
0-0) usually scores that
many by early in the second quarter.
While there were plenty
of faults after the Maryland

game, the message from
the coaching staff to a retooled offense was aimed
at lightening a dull mood.
“The coaches have just
been emphasizing on effort and just having fun
playing the game we love,”
said West Virginia offensive lineman Curtis Feight.
“That’s the main thing, just
having fun out there.”
That will be difficult
if there’s a repeat of the
offense’s 175-yard performance that had coach
Dana Holgorsen and offensive coordinator Shannon
Dawson shouldering the
blame for not having their
players in the right frame
of mind and for not adjusting to Maryland’s defensive alignment.

OSU still looks formidable in Big Ten
The Big Ten has already started conference play — Wisconsin
beat Purdue 41-10 last weekend
— but this Saturday night is
the first marquee game between
league opponents.
Wisconsin at Ohio State in Columbus.
The 23rd-ranked Badgers endured one of the more bizarre
losses of the college football
season at Arizona State on Sept.
14. The clock ran out while Wisconsin was trying to set up a
field goal to win the game. The
Pac-12 later issued a statement
acknowledging errors by its officiating crew.
A win over fourth-ranked Ohio
State would go a long way toward
helping the Badgers get over the
loss to Arizona State — if they
haven’t already.
The Buckeyes and Badgers
won’t have to share the spotlight
much. Half the Big Ten has an
open date this weekend.
While Wisconsin and Ohio
State prepare for their showdown, here’s a look at five story
lines that have unfolded through
the first month of the season:
STILL THE FAVORITES:
Braxton Miller’s injury has done
little to slow Ohio State. The
Buckeyes (4-0) raced out to a big
lead and won 52-34 at California, then beat Florida A&amp;M 76-0
last weekend. They did all that
without Miller, who sprained a
ligament in his left knee in the
second game and hasn’t played
since. Kenny Guiton stepped in
at quarterback and played well.
Coach Urban Meyer says he’s
confident in both quarterbacks,
and Miller could start against
Wisconsin (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) if
he has a good week of practice.
“They’re both great quarterbacks, without question. Kenny’s
done a tremendous job of controlling the offense,” Wisconsin
coach Gary Andersen said. “He’s
very poised, and it’s amazing that
they do have two quarterbacks of

singing Carmen Ohio, at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing, Mich., Saturday, Sept. 29, 2012.

the quality that they have.”
ALL OVER THE MAP: Instate rivals Michigan and Michigan State could still be in the
hunt for a conference title when
they play each other Nov. 2, but
the Wolverines and Spartans have
their share of concerns. Michigan
(4-0) looked impressive while
beating Notre Dame at home, but
the Wolverines could have easily
lost their next two games against
Akron and Connecticut.
“I thought we played hard for
60 minutes, I don’t know if we
played well,” Michigan coach
Brady Hoke said Tuesday, three
days after the win over UConn.
Michigan State, meanwhile,
hoped it had finally solved its

uncertainty at quarterback when
Connor Cook was named the
starter before last week’s game
against Notre Dame. The Spartans (3-1) still struggled on offense, though, in a 17-13 loss.
NEBRASKA’S PROBLEMS:
Cornhuskers coach Bo Pelini has
had a lot to deal with lately. Nebraska’s defense isn’t very good
right now — a problem that dates
at least as far back as the team’s
70-31 loss to Wisconsin in last
year’s Big Ten title game. Then
there’s the matter of the 2-yearold audio of Pelini’s expletivefilled rant against fans, which
was leaked to the Deadspin.com
sports website recently. Solve
the defensive problems, and fans

may be more likely to forgive
and forget. The Cornhuskers (31) allowed 41 points in a loss to
UCLA earlier this month.
“We’re examining everything,”
Pelini said. “We need to clean
ourselves up. We talked at length
about it. … We have to get it fixed.”
UNBLEMISHED SO FAR:
Northwestern and Minnesota
are both 4-0. The Wildcats were
expected to be good after winning 10 games a season ago, and
they’ve won at California and
beaten Syracuse at home this year.
Minnesota’s wins have been
less glamorous. The Golden Gophers were able to beat Western
Illinois after coach Jerry Kill
missed the second half because

of a seizure. Minnesota hosts
Iowa this weekend.
“It certainly will be an oldfashioned football game, and I
like that,” Kill said. “We know
we’ve got a big challenge ahead.”
ON THE RISE?: Illinois went
winless in Big Ten play last season,
and 2-10 overall. Already, there are
signs of improvement for the Illini.
They routed Cincinnati 45-17 and
rallied late before losing 34-24 to
Washington. Illinois (2-1) had last
weekend off before this week’s
game against Miami of Ohio.
“I think (the week off is) advantageous for us, just because
of the youth of the program,”
coach Tim Beckman said. “Hopefully we’ll see this weekend.”

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
Sept. 26, 2013:
This year you will break precedent
and open up to an unusual opportunity. At first you could be reticent,
but eventually you will decide to go
for it. If you are single, in this process, you will meet someone quite
different and spectacular. Take your
time and get to know this person. If
you are attached, the two of you will
enjoy getting involved with a public
commitment of some kind. Having
outside interests together will bond
the relationship further. CANCER can
be pushy.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Use the daytime hours to
the max. You could be surprised by
everything you can accomplish. Listen
to your sixth sense when dealing with
a neighbor. An idea might trigger your
imagination and keep you distracted
most of the late afternoon. Tonight:
Happily head home.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Be aware of your checkbook balance, and catch a change
quickly. Your ability to move past the
obvious while looking for deeper reasons and more information will help.
Remain responsive to others, even if
you feel a bit overwhelmed. Tonight:
Accept an invitation to go out.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
You are full of spunk in
the morning. The cost of enabling a
situation to move forward could be
higher than you’d anticipated. Don’t
be so cocky about having enough
funds dedicated to this project.
Tonight: Follow a suggestion from
someone who has had more experience than you.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
You might be slow to take
action, but once you do, it could be
difficult to stop you. You still will want
to weigh the pros and cons before
making a decision. Know what you
desire in the long term. If someone does not make the grade, you
will know soon. Tonight: A force to
behold.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Use the morning to the max.
Meetings will be more successful
as a result. You have a lot to think
about this afternoon, and you might
feel pressured by others to come to
a conclusion. Listen to their feedback. Debate an option with a trusted
friend. Tonight: Keep evaluating.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Others will continue to
pressure you until you decide to
become unavailable. Some might say
that your attitude is selfish, but that
is not the case. You usually give a
lot to others, so taking some time for
yourself is smart. Tonight: Make plans
with a favorite person or two.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You are willing to walk in
someone else’s shoes. Do it more
often in order to prevent a problem
from developing. Respect and honor
your differences, rather than judging
them. Your ability to take the lead in a
trying situation will emerge. Tonight: A
force to be dealt with.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
A partner seems much
more fun-loving than in the past. Be
ready to switch gears, as you might
need to make a long-distance call.
You know what is going on with this
person. Trust your instincts, despite
what you might be hearing. Tonight:
Opt for a movie or other fun happening.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You are able to digest a lot
of information and then quickly share
it in a clear manner. However, when
people drop a lot of information on
you, it takes time to sort it all out. Ask
a key friend for help in separating the
viable facts from fiction. Tonight: With
a favorite person.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Get as much done in the
morning as you can. By afternoon,
meetings and people in general will
occupy your time. You are correct in
thinking that you need to establish
what is too much, yet you might find it
difficult to say “no” to others. Tonight:
Make exciting weekend plans.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Your playfulness will be
hard to resist, but you might need
to tame it a bit in the afternoon. You
have a lot on your plate, and you
have the ability to handle it. Start taking care of business. Make time to
discuss an important idea. Tonight:
Take a walk or go to the gym.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
You might be slow to start
in the morning, but by afternoon, you
will be full of ideas, enthusiasm and
energy. See what a couple of hours
can do? If an idea or thought keeps
haunting you, make a point to do
something about it. Tonight: Put up
your feet and relax.

PRO FOOTBALL REVIEW
Jets, Patriots combine for $88,500 in fines by NFL
NEW YORK (AP) — The New York
Jets and New England Patriots were
fined a combined $88,500 by the NFL
from their game last week that included
a late sideline skirmish.
The fourth-quarter melee was set off
by New York center Nick Mangold’s
low hit on New England’s Aqib Talib
after an interception that sealed the
Patriots’ 13-10 victory.
Jets right guard Willie Colon led the
way with $34,125 in fines — $26,250 for
contact with an official, and $7,875 for
punching an opponent. Colon said Thursday he planned to appeal the fine, saying it
“was way more than I expected.”
Jets left tackle D’Brickashaw Ferguson
was fined $15,000 for punching a Patriots
player, while New England’s Michael Buchanan, Alfonzo Dennard and Vince Wilfork were docked $7,875 each for throwing punches. Mangold was not fined, and
Talib said earlier this week that he didn’t
think the hit was dirty.
Patriots defensive end Chandler
Jones was also fined $15,750 for hitting Jets quarterback Geno Smith in
the head and neck area.
Tennessee’s Jackie Battle was fined
$21,000, becoming the first running back
docked for lowering the crown of his helmet into an opponent. He hit Houston’s
Danieal Manning — violating a new rule
in effect this season — on a play during
the Texans’ 30-24 overtime victory last
Sunday, but was not penalized on the field.
According to the rule, Article 8, it’s a
foul if “a runner or tackler initiates forcible contact by delivering a blow with
the top/crown of his helmet against an
opponent when both players are clearly
outside the tackle box.”
“I didn’t expect it,” Battle said, adding
that he was appealing. “I thought it was
a perfectly legal play. I’ve been running

like that my whole career, so I didn’t think
they’d get me for it. It came yesterday. I
couldn’t even eat lunch.
“It made me sick.”
The NFL also fined Washington safety
Brandon Meriweather $42,000 earlier this
week for driving his helmet into the chin
of Green Bay running back Eddie Lacy,
who suffered a concussion. Meriweather
later left the game after giving himself a
concussion on a helmet-to-helmet hit on
Packers running back James Starks.
Other big fines announced earlier in
the week included Titans safety Bernard
Pollard and Texans cornerback Kareem
Jackson each being docked $42,000 for
hits. Pollard, who said he is appealing, left
Andre Johnson with a concussion after he
helped knock him out of bounds near the
goal line late in regulation.
Jackson left his feet and hit Titans receiver Kendall Wright in the head. Jackson
was flagged for unnecessary roughness.
Tampa Bay’s Dashon Goldson had his
one-game suspension lifted earlier this
week for hitting New Orleans’ Darren Sproles in the head, but was fined $100,000.
The Buccaneers had two others fined this
week, though: $21,000 each to safety Ahmad Black and defensive end Adrian Clayborn for illegal hits.
Black had a late hit on Saints tight end
Jimmy Graham that drew an unnecessary
roughness penalty. Clayborn was penalized by the league for a helmet-to-helmet
hit on quarterback Drew Brees.
Philadelphia linebacker DeMeco Ryans
was also fined $21,000 for his hit to the
head and neck area of San Diego wide
receiver Malcom Floyd, who was carted
off the field and taken to a hospital. Floyd
didn’t practice all week and will miss at
least Sunday’s game at Tennessee.
Chicago cornerback Charles Tillman
was docked $15,750 for a horse-collar

Amid all the passing offense are drops
Barry Wilner

The Associated Press

Oops.
For all the prolific passing stats
just two weeks into the season,
something else about the aerial
game leaps out. All those drops.
Amid the 400-yard passing performances, outrageous receiving
totals and end zones filled with
TD catches, there have been 118
dropped passes through the first
two weeks of the season, according to STATS LLC.
Since it’s not an official statistic, the NFL doesn’t track drops
but coaches sure do. That means
Bill Belichick and Jim Schwartz
must be livid over the bobbles.
New England and Detroit each
have eight, with Patriots rookie
Aaron Dobson tied for the league
lead with four. Surprisingly, the
usually reliable Eric Decker of
Denver also has four.
Tom Brady was particularly demonstrative in the Patriots’ 13-10
win in the rain last week against
the Jets. New York played some
solid defense, but among Brady’s
receivers only Julian Edelman had
sticky fingers. The others acted as
if they were allergic to the ball.
“Well, it goes both ways,”
Brady said. “It’s them trusting
me that I’m going to put the ball
in position for them to catch it
and not get hit, so that they can

do things full speed and not worry about if I’m throwing them
into something. It’s just a lot of
work. It’s just a lot of repetition.
It’s a lot of communication.”
But even if all that works, they
still have to catch the ball.
They’re not doing it often
enough for the Giants or Broncos
— they have seven drops apiece.
St. Louis, Cleveland, Baltimore
and the Jets have six each.
Of course, not all drops are
damaging. Some can even be advantageous, as demonstrated by
Buffalo’s Fred Jackson in the Bills’
comeback win over Carolina.
With a first down at the Carolina 46 with 47 seconds remaining, Jackson intentionally
dropped EJ Manuel’s short pass
with linebacker Thomas Davis
almost on top of him.
“It was one of those things where
I caught it and I turned around, and
he was right there. I had to get rid of
it,” Jackson said. “It was just one of
those things I thought at the time,
‘If I get tackled, the clock’s going to
keep running and it’s going to eat up
some valuable time for us.’ “
The heads-up play saved enough
time that the Bills were able to
work the ball downfield and score
on a touchdown pass to Stevie
Johnson with 2 seconds remaining.
A reversal of fortune for Johnson
whose drop the previous week was
critical in a loss to New England.

Washington Redskins wide receiver Aldrick Robinson (11), seen
here catching a 49 yard pass for a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles in a game on Noc. 18, 2012, dropped a touchdown pass Sunday that would have put the Redskins ahead of
the Detroit Lions.
