Null, 91 Jacqueline Jones Thaxton, 88 50 cents daily FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2013 Vol. 63, No. 188 Griffith arraigned on animal cruelty charges Sarah Hawley shawley@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — A Pomeroy woman entered a not guilty plea on Thursday to 24 counts, including 21 counts of animal cruelty. Karen L. Griffith of Pomeroy, appeared in Meigs County Court alongside her attorney, John Lavelle, for the arraignment on all 24 counts. Griffith is charged with 21 counts of cruelty to animals and three counts of obstructing official business. Nine of the counts of animal cruelty allege that Griffith did “keep animals other than cattle, poultry, or fowl, swine, sheep or goats, in an enclosure without wholesome exercise and change of air”. Twelve of the counts of animal cruelty allege that Griffith did “impound or confine an animal without supplying it during such confinement with a sufficient quantity of good wholesome food and water.” Both obstructing official business and cruelty to animals charges are second de- gree misdemeanors. The date of the violations are from Sept. 12 and 14, and were filed by Andy Baer, Humane Officer. Discussion during the hearing included conditions of bond. The state asked that the Humane Society be allowed to make random checks of the horses in Griffith’s care. Lavelle argued that Griffith is presumed innocent and that the checks would be a violation of her rights and private property. Ultimately, Judge Steve Story said there would be no conditions placed on Griffith’s bond. Story added that if the state would like to have checks made, a motion should be made or a a search warrant obtained first. Lavelle also detailed some of Griffith’s background in arguing that she is qualified to care for the animals. Griffith, according to her attorney’s statements, is a lifelong Meigs County resident who has a background in animal science and animal nutrition with course work from Ohio State University. Meigs County Prosecutor Colleen Williams said earlier this week that the Humane Society received a complaint about horses possible being under nourished. Williams added that there were a large number of stallions and mares together on another property. Williams said that they are working with Griffith’s attorney, John Lavelle, to resolve the care of the horses and that the county has not taken custody of the horses at this time. Griffith is scheduled to appear in Meigs County Court for a pretrial hearing at 1 p.m. on Dec. 19.

Several activities were carried out with almost $400 in cash being raised to help the homeless. The event also provided a drop-off point for people who had good items of clothing and miscellaneous items to donate toward the mission project. Bill Davis and other members of the Heaven’s Saints, a motorcycle club, were there all day to assist in their goal of raising awareness of homelessness and collecting funds to provide assistance to alleviate the problem in whatever way they can. agillenwater@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS — Today marks the 50th commemoration of the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, but even with the passage of time, more questions than answers surround the assassination of the country’s 35th president, according to John H. “Jack” Gordon, Ph.D., a well-respected lecturer and expert on the Kennedy assassination. During a special presentation this past Sunday, Bossard Memorial Library presented Gordon, who has spoken over the past 35 years to students on more than 100 college campuses across the United States.

The world’s largest Christmas project of its kind — Operation Christmas Child — is finishing up by collecting the shoe boxes and making preparations to get them to a central location for shipping overseas. Once in their designated location, the boxes will be hand delivered to the recipients. It has been estimated that nearly a hundred million gifts for kids worldwide have been delivered since the program started 20 years ago. This year-round project of Samaritan’s Purse is coming to a peak now, as local businesses, churches and schools finish collecting gifts to fill the shoe boxes.which are to be turned in to the Hope An in-demand lecturer on the Kennedy assassination, Dr. Jack Gordon, left, is pictured following his presentation on Sunday at Bossard Library speaking with Gallipolis resident and history enthusiast Mike Brown, right.

Store Connies Corner - Quality Print Pomeroy Flower Shop 60464644 lecture, Gordon discussed, in detail, the events of November 22, 1963, and a number of the theories that surround the assassination, including his own belief of what happened that day. “This goes way back for me, and I can look around the room and the majority of the people here remember November 22, 1963,” Gordon told the crowd. “I’m very, very pleased to be with you here today.” During the lecture that held the audience in rapt attention for approximately an hour and half on Sunday, Gordon presented a slide show and discussed the motorcade footage of that day, including the famous Zapruder film released 12 years after the assassination, and other relevant newsreel footage and photos related to the event. In addition, Gordon also discussed the now infamous Warren Commission and its findings, as well as the House Select Committee on Assassinations. The Warren Commission, officially known as the President’s Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy, was established on November 29, 1963, by President Lyndon Johnson to investigation the assassination. In its findings that were released in September 1964, the commission found that Lee Harvey Oswald, alone and unaided, assassinated the president. The House Select Committee on Assassinations was formed in 1976 to investigate the assassination of Kennedy as well as Martin Luther King, Jr., and, according to Gordon, the committee had a somewhat different take on the assassination of President Kennedy. “They concluded, I think, reluctantly, that there was an assassination conspiracy with President Kennedy. The chief council really thought the organized crime connection was the key and the acoustical evidence — that was the sound evidence picked up by the Dallas motorcycle policeman,” Gordon said. “They turned over a lot of their work to the justice department. That was 34 years ago and nothing was ever followed up by the justice department. There is just outright disdain [for the justice department] in not following up on probably the most important murder case in the history of our country. … “The House Select Committee on Assassinations was on the same track as the Warren Commission with three shots only, until they ran into their acoustical sound evidence and found that there was fourth shot fired from the grassy knoll,” Gordon continued. “That ended up being argued and debated and never followed through with.” Gordon’s own theory on the assassination is that Kennedy was shot a total of three times on November 22, 1963, once in the neck from the front, once in the back at a point five inches below the collar and to the right of the spine, and one fatal blow to the head. “It’s my firm belief that the president was hit three times, throat, back and head, in that order,” Gordon stated. “There are many who believe, particularly a Dr. Gary Aguilar, a physicist, that the president was hit in the head twice, simultaneously.” Gordon further discussed the role of the media in the ongoing debate about the assassination of the president and the perpetual myth that Oswald acted as the lone assassin. “The scariest thing about this, in the 38 years I’ve been researching this, is that the media keeps pushing this myth of the lone assassin, and why? Why can’t they legitimately do research and find that there’s a lot more to it,” Gordon stated while discussing a coup d’etat, or the plan made by a small group to over throw a government. “The most important part of a coup d’etat is not the taking out of the president or the dictator or whoever it is, it’s the aftermath, keeping the noise level down, and the media is critical in that respect. When President Johnson gets that volume from Earl Warren [of the Warren Commission] with the findings and the conclusions, but not the exhibits and the testimony, you can go back on the microfiche of the Washington Post and the New York Times, Boston Globe, all the major newspapers, or, if they still have the taping of Cronkite or Huntley Brinkley, they all endorsed it when it came out. They didn’t take the 18 months for the exhibits and testimony to come out to look at the discrepancies.” Gordon also discussed the one-bullet theory and the belief of many that only one bullet was used that day to kill Kennedy and to injure Governor John Connally of Texas who was riding in car in front of Kennedy at the time of the shooting. “If you take a shot through anyone of us five and half inches down from the collar and it comes out the throat, that’s an upward trajectory, not a downward trajectory. You have an entrance wound that becomes and exit wound. You have a bullet that then goes on and hits Governor Connally in the right shoulder, shatters his fifth rib, comes out the right chest, goes down and to the right through his right wrist … all the way up to the head shot and then it’s finally spent in Connally’s thigh,” Gordon said. “It doesn’t add up, it just doesn’t add up, but it’s still endorsed to this day.” Gordon also explained that he believes that at least six gunshots were fired that day, a fact that can only lead one to the conclusion that the assassination was the work of a conspiracy, with multiple gunmen. “I think the president was assassinated by a conspiracy. The gun shots came from two different directions. I think there are at least six [gunshots]: his throat, his back, his head, Connally’s shoulder and rib and chest, Connally’s wrist is five, and then the Tague ricochet is six,” Gordon said. “I used to get hung up about the exact location of these people firing from behind and in front. I don’t anymore. I don’t think it matters. If there are gunshots from two different directions, it’s a conspiracy — well thought out and well-planned, with probably radio communication among the gun teams, a visual spotter, and those gunmen who can hit a bulls-eye a hundred times out of a hundred times. Who knows what happened to them. They might have been dead, as so many Hollywood movies used to say when they made reference to the Kennedy assassination, ‘the gunman was dead by sunset.’” Gordon further discussed Oswald and his role as the scapegoat in relation to the assassination. “He said he was a patsy when he was being led down the corridor and he asked for legal representation and never got it,” Gordon stated. The lecturer further discussed his own theory that the friction surrounding Cuba, the Soviet Union and the United States, including the Bay of Pigs incident and the Cuban Missile Crisis, played a large role in the subsequent assassination. “The conspiracy itself is a triangle to me: organized crime, the CIA and the anti-Castro Cuba, the three corners of the triangle,” Gordon stated. “Everything changes after Kennedy is gone. What we didn’t know, even in the ’80s and the ’90s, was what Kennedy did to open up channels to Castro on the one hand and Khrushchev on the other.” Gordon further encouraged the audience to make their own conclusions from all of the evidence that exists surrounding the assassination. “You are obviously here because you all have a lot of interest in this and none of you have to believe my findings,” Gordon said. “I basically have stuck to that triangle now for 30 years.” Gordon also pointed to a commencement speech given by Kennedy in June 1963 at American University as a possible beginning of the conspiracy that killed the president later that year. “[That speech was] calling for, not as Neville Chamberlain said, ‘peace in our time’, but ‘peace for all time.’ It was very powerful speech and I think that was when the mechanism was created to kill him,” Gordon stated. At the conclusion of his presentation, Gordon took a few questions from audience members and subsequently left those in attendance with a word of encouragement for future research on this topic of such historical significance that has puzzled historians and the American public since it occurred 5o years ago. “The cover up is still well in place, and, I tell you, it’s even tighter now with what we’re seeing come out,” Gordon told the crowd. “I encourage you, whatever your age is, to keep reading.” �Friday, November 22, 2013 The Daily Sentinel s Page 3 www.mydailysentinel.com Death Notices MHS students to present theatre event FEUSTEL JOHNSTOWN, Ohio — Nancy Kay Feustel, 63, of Johnstown, Ohio, formerly of Gallipolis, died Thursday, November 21, 2013, at her residence.

As often as I have wondered what good, if any, ever came from our involvement there, I wonder, too, if it was necessary for America to ever have gotten involved. In retrospect, I think not. I respectfully submit it was the work of certain politicians before Kennedy’s time, and then others maneuvered and manipulated to keep us there. I’ll go one farther, and insist the ultimate blame for the debacle of the Viet Nam Conflict belongs solely to the politicians then in office. While they somehow dodged the bullet of culpability with little or no collateral stench, the fact is many of the soldiers who went there and did the actual fighting are still paying a terrible price for their service. WHAT IF—our politicians would regularly tell us “the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?” Could we handle the truth? If we knew what we imagine they do, would we be any better off or behave any differently? Being 100 percent truthful 100 percent of the time is itself a dangerous proposition. After all, Jesus ALWAYS told the truth, NEVER “fudged” or watered it down—indeed, could not lie. His peers found his honesty and truth-telling to be so objectionable and offensive they crucified Him. However—the truth is NOT that the Jews killed Jesus: He GAVE UP his life; Jesus VOLUNTEERED for the Cross—for our sakes. “You have God’s Word on it!” A hunger for more like a roaring lion, seeking Small towns and someone to devour.

Superintendents, principals and athletic directors discussed courses of action and scenarios as membership prepares to drop to an all-time low four schools at the conclusion of the 2014-15 school year. That’s when the conference loses current member Portsmouth, which will leave the SEOAL to become a member of the Ohio Valley Conference. Portsmouth High School will join current OVC members Chesapeake, Coal Grove, Fairland, Rock Hill and South Point, as well as another newcomer — former SEOAL member Ironton — beginning with the 201516 school year. PHS will honor its 2014-15 SEOAL commitments and, in basketball, is working on playing both a full SEOAL (eight games) and OVC (12 games) schedule that season. After Portsmouth departs, only original members Gallia Academy, Jackson and Logan, as well as Warren (which joined in 1986), will remain. Officials from those schools discussed the viability of a four-team conference and the possibility of adding a fifth and maybe even a sixth member. The main questions are whether one or two schools will join the league and, if not, whether to proceed as a four-team conference or try to find landing places for its remaining members. If the league does not go on, finding places for the four remaining schools is a priority among the administrators and they will seek to remain together as a group in another conference. Jackson High School SuperinSee FUTURE | 7 George Bridges | MCT photo Head coach Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers watches his team against the Houston Texans in the first half of the Texans’ 17-10 victory on Sunday, Oct. 2, 2011, in Houston, Texas. Even at 4-6, Steelers hardly out of playoff hunt PITTSBURGH (AP) — The math is tantalizing. The schedule is favorable. The middle of the AFC is a mess. Suddenly, things are looking up for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Consecutive wins over Buffalo and Detroit have Pittsburgh (4-6) in position to play meaningful football into December if not January. “We feel like we have a good team, but when we mention those things, people say ‘Your record says you’re not,” wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery said. “We’ve just got to continue to fight this thing out and see what happens. We have to keep it going.” Cotchery allows his team’s margin for error is “nonexistent,” though the final six weeks hardly look intimidating. Starting with Sunday’s game at Cleveland (4-6), the Steelers face just one team with a winning record the rest of the way. And even that Dec. 15 showdown with AFC North-leading Cincinnati is at Heinz Field. The other five games include two against the Browns, a Thanksgiving night matchup at struggling Baltimore (46) and a visit by the Miami Dolphins on Dec. 8. What was billed as the return of former Steelers wide receiver Mike Wallace could take a backseat to something considerably more substantial. Miami and the New York Jets are tied for the sixth and final AFC playoff spot at 5-5. Pittsburgh already owns the tiebreaker over the Jets after picking up a victory on the road last month. It’s not much hope to cling to, but it beats the alternative. The Steelers were reading the obituary on their season after a humbling 55-31 loss to New England dropped them to 2-6 at the midway point and 15th in the 16-team AFC. Two promising weeks later, they’re 10th with plenty of time left. The crossroads may have come in the fourth quarter against Detroit. The Lions had just botched a fake field goal attempt but pinned the Steelers at their own 3 early in the fourth quarter. Facing third-and-9, Roethlisberger hit Antonio Brown for a 16-yard gain. The drive ended in a touchdown and Pittsburgh was on its way to its most significant victory of the season. “I don’t know if it’s a turning point, but hopefully we can look back in 3-4 months and say it was,” tight end Heath Miller said. This isn’t the first time this fall Pittsburgh appeared poised to break out of a rut. The Steelers beat the Jets and the Ravens after an 0-4 start and spark belief that better days were ahead. Pittsburgh then went out and bumbled its way to a 2118 loss to Oakland before Tom Brady picked the Steelers apart and sent the franchise into full-blown crisis mode. Defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau talked about going back to “page one” in the playbook after giving up 610 yards to the Patriots. He vowed to simplify things and his defense has responded with a pair of solid performances. The Steelers overwhelmed Buffalo quarterback E.J. Manuel in a 23-10 romp and shut down the high-powered Lions after surviving a 27-point deluge in the second quarter. Detroit quarterback Matthew Stafford completed just 3 of 16 passes after halftime and wide receiver Calvin Johnson never got his hands on the ball in the second half as Pittsburgh rallied.

Wahama travels to Madonna for epic rematch Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com WEIRTON, W.Va. — How does the Wahama White Falcon football team follow last week’s exciting 49-27 playoff win over Clay-Battelle last week? The answer is quite evident … upset the top ranked team in Class A during quarterfinal round action this week in a rematch of last season’s Class A championship game with the Madonna Blue Dons. This will be the objective when Coach Dave Barr takes his Bend Area team to Weir High School and Jimmy Carey Stadium at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday for what is materializing as another classic confrontation between the two successful Class A athletic programs. Wahama enters the postseason confrontation as the eighth ranked team in Class A and will carry a 10-1 record into the postseason outing. Madonna is the number one rated team in the small schools division of West Virginia and will bring an unblemished 11-0 slate into the quarterfinal round contest. This will be the third meeting ever between the two grid teams with Wahama owning a 2-0 mark. The White Falcons handed Madonna a 33-0 win See REMATCH | 7 Buckeyes fans struggle with Ohio St’s BCS plight COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — As he strolled to the locker room on Wednesday night after Ohio State’s chilly outdoor practice, Urban Meyer reflected on the speculation going on outside the team offices among Buckeyes fans about the BCS, bowl See STEELERS | 7 games and rankings. “Fans get to have some fun,” the second-year Ohio State coach said. “That’s what makes college football so neat right now.” Buckeyes fans could not disagree more. This is not fun.

The fans’ emotions are jumbled. Some are angry, most are frustrated. But it’s not as if they’re marching through the streets of this whitecollar city carrying pitch forks and torches. A year after NCAA sanctions prevented the Buckeyes from putting their unbeaten team on display in a major bowl game, almost all of the Ohio State faithful have grown comfortable with their team being left behind — again — in the race for the national championship. “Most people I’ve talked with have kind of resigned themselves to (the fact) it’s not in this team’s hands and that’s the stark reality they have to face,” said WBNS radio’s Paul Keels, the play-by-play voice of the Buckeyes and host of Meyer’s weekly coaches call-in show. “What they can cling to is the hope that this team goes unbeaten, wins the Big Ten championship, and if they can’t go to the BCS championship game, well, then you still have something else to brag about. “It just seems as though there’s been somewhat of a reluctant accep- tance to the way the whole situation sits right now.” Heading into Saturday’s final home game against Indiana, the Buckeyes (10-0, 6-0 Big Ten) have few chances to wow the BCS poll voters and computers. The final regular-season game is at The Big House against a Michigan (7-3, 3-3) team that has played poorly in recent weeks. Should the Buckeyes win those two games, they’ll most likely meet 13th-ranked Michigan State in the Big Ten championship game on Dec. 7 in Indianapolis. The final BCS rankings come out the next day. Ohio State fans already have an ominous feeling how it’ll all end. If things turn out right, a trip to the Rose Bowl. But the Buckeyes would be playing there a few days before the national title is settled and the crystal football trophy is handed out. It’s come to this in present day college football: A berth in the Granddaddy of all Bowls is seen as a bitter pill to have to swallow. Ohio State’s star quarterback Braxton Miller was asked if he had any advice for the team’s most arSee BUCKEYES | 7 �Friday, November 22, 2013 The Daily Sentinel s Page 7 www.mydailysentinel.com Future From Page 6 tendent Phil Howard addressed, and denied, rumors that JHS has been invited to an upcoming meeting of the TriValley Conference. “There are rumors flying around that we will be invited to a TVC meeting. We have not received an invitation from the TVC,” Howard told The Jackson County Times-Journal, a sister publication to The Logan Daily News. Five years ago, Jackson did apply for membership into both the TVC and Southern Ohio Conference, but were denied by both leagues. “We were denied membership by both the TVC and SOC. We applied, it was voted upon and we were turned down. After that, I made it very clear that we would not make another application for those two leagues. We have not and will not,” said Howard. “What we will do is in the best interest of our kids and our district. At the end of the day, that is having a league for our kids to play in.” It was ultimately decided to fully place the issue in the hands of league superintendents, who will form a group plan. The league expanded to 10 Rematch From Page 6 win in a 2011 regular season matchup at Fairmont State College before last year’s classic, 43-42 overtime conquest in the 2012 history making, Class A title game. That overtime loss a season ago left a bad taste in the Blue Dons mouth and you can bet the Madonna coaching staff is exploiting that loss as a major factor in their pre-game preparations. The Blue Dons head coach, Doug Taylor, stated “This is going to be a big test for us.” I don’t think we really have to talk to the kids about what happened last year- they know. We view this as an opportunity to redeem ourselves. The kids are excited about the challenge that is ahead of them to see if we can’t change the outcome.” On its way to its fifth undefeated regular season in school history Madonna defeated six playoff opponents during the 2013 regular season. The Blue Dons own wins over Ohio playoff teams, Bealsville (63-8) and Steubenville Catholic Central (22-17) in addition to defeating West Virginia opponents, #13 Wheeling Central (42-7), #12 Bishop Donahue (48-20), and #9 Clay-Battelle (35-6). Madonna dealt #16 Tucker County a 52-0 thrashing in the opening round of the post-season. Through 11 games this season Madonna averages 322 yards per game rushing and another 132 yards through the air. The Blue Dons have scored 514 points on the year to average 46.7 points per game offensively. Defensively Madonna is giving up an average of just under 90 yards per game on the ground and just over 90 yards passing while allowing the opposition to score 9.6 points per game. When anyone speaks of Madonna football the first thing that comes to mind is what has been identified as the “dynamic duo” in senior quarterback Ross Comis and senior running back Eliot Nero. Comis was chosen as the player of the game for the Blue Dons in last year’s championship game with Wahama and a first team Class A All-State selection in 2012. Comis hasn’t missed a step from his junior year accolades with nearly 1400 rushing yards this season in addition to over 1400 yards passing. He has scored 22 touchdowns and has thrown for 17 scores. Nero is also experiencing an impressive senior season with 1442 yards rushing and nearly 300 yards receiving. He has totaled 22 touchdowns running the football while adding four more sixpointers receiving. The Blue Dons feature a veteran projected starting offensive lineup of 10 seniors and one freshman. The offensive line averages nearly 246 pounds and is anchored by its mammoth tackle in senior Josh Martin schools prior to the 2006-07 season but has since lost Athens (Tri-Valley Conference), Zanesville and Marietta (East Central Ohio League), Chillicothe (South Central Ohio League) and Ironton, with Portsmouth next to depart. All of the remaining members have had flirtations and dialogue with joining various leagues in the past few years. Logan had meetings and discussions with the Mid-State League and Ohio Capital Conference; Warren with the Tri-Valley Conference and Muskingum Valley League, and Jackson and Gallia Academy with both the TVC and OVC. Gallipolis has a standing offer to join the OVC to become its eight member but has thus far declined the offer. The SEOAL — the state’s oldest non-city athletic conference — was formed in 1925 and is currently in its 89th season. The league approved its complete 2014-15 schedule at Wednesday’s meeting and also set uniform starting times for football, volleyball, soccer, basketball, baseball and softball. The primary change is joining the statewide trend in starting football games at 7 p.m., a half-hour earlier than the 7:30 kickoffs that have been in place for many years. A growing segment of leagues have adopted 7 p.m. kickoffs in order to get their players and fans home at a more reasonable time in addition to adjusting to games that are taking longer and longer to play due to spread offenses, higher scoring and more pass incompletions, all of which result in additional clock stoppages. Paul Boggs, sports editor of The Jackson County TimesJournal, contributed to this report. Craig Dunn is the sports editor of the Logan Daily News and is also the SEOAL media representative. Steelers (7-2 295). The remainder of the interior line include seniors; Adam Robertson (6-4 235) at the other tackle position, Shane Livada (5-11 235) at center and Garrett Bever (5-11 260) and Austin Bell (6-1 225) at the guard posts. The receivers consist of seniors Will Bowser (6-1 185) Marcello Biondillo (510 165) and Tyler Ewusiak (6-3 225). Bowser is Comis’ favorite target with 17 receptions for 618 yards and five touchdowns while Biondillo has 17 catches for 320 yards and two scores. The lone underclassmen in the list of probable offensive starters for Madonna is freshman Joey Ewusiak (6-2 170) joining Comis and Nero in the Hancock County teams backfield. The White Falcons are coming off an exciting 49-27 playoff win last week over Clay-Battelle. The Bend Area team rallied from a 1914 deficit with 35 points in the final quarter. As a team Wahama averages just over 49 points per contest while allowing the combined foe to score just over 14 points per outing. The Bend Are team averages 343 yards rushing and nearly 96 yards passing per game while giving up 143 yards on the ground and another 84 yards through the airways. Individually, the White Falcons leading scorers are Kane Roush with 226 points on the year and Colton Neal with 114 points. The duo is also the leading rushers for Wahama with Roush amassing 1492 yards in just 118 carries with Neal picking up 961 yards in 111 tries. Senior quarterback Hunter Bradley has ran for 288 yards while connecting on 37 of his 74 aerials for 874 yards. Bradley has tossed 14 touchdown passes and has only been intercepted three times. Bradley’s top two targets have been Roush with 18 catches for 508 yards and nine scores and Wyatt Zuspan with 13 receptions for 172 yards and two touchdown catches. The probable interior line starters include seniors Josh Haddox, Wesley Harrison, and Lane Sparks, along with juniors Brent Larck and Garrett Miller. Sophomores Jesse Hesson and Clayton Sines also receive a great deal of playing time in the trenches for the White Falcons. The Bend Area team starters will also likely include seniors Brandon Stewart and Randall Robie along with juniors Demitrius Serevicz, Wyatt Wooten and Timmy Gibbs and sophomore Jared Nutter. Saturday Night’s winner will advance to the Class A semifinal affair against the winner of Saturday afternoon’s Williamstown-Bishop Donahue survivor. Kickoff time at Jimmy Carrey Stadium on the campus of Weir High School is 7:30 p.m. Ohio Valley Treatment Center “Now Accepting New Patients” From Page 6 Perhaps just as encouraging as the results were the plays the Steelers were able to produce. Lawrence Timmons recovered a fumble and returned it 30 yards to set up a score. Nose tackle Steve McLendon forced Lions holder Sam Martin to fumble during the fake field goal and safety Will Allen intercepted Stafford in the fourth quarter to put Roethlisberger in position for the gameclinching touchdown.

Because it’s not in our hands,” he said, smiling. He said about all anyone following the Buckeyes can hope for is that the team wins by a landslide in each of its games. “Just make it look easy,” he said. “Maybe (the voters) will switch it up in the future. We hope for the best.” It’s not just the top two teams that worry Ohio State fans. Unbeaten Baylor has climbed into the No. 4 spot in the BCS rankings, right behind the Buckeyes. In the system’s migraine-inducing mathematics, the Buckeyes are 1.045 points behind Alabama and .792 points behind Florida State — but only .0013 ahead of Baylor. “I can tell you that this BROADCAST 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WPBY) 13 (WOWK) CABLE 27 (LIFE) 29 (FAM) 30 (SPIKE) 31 (NICK) 34 (USA) 35 (TBS) 37 (CNN) 38 (TNT) 39 (AMC) 40 (DISC) 42 (A&E) 52 (ANPL) 57 (OXY) 58 60 61 (WE) (E!)

With Seattle and Cincinnati on byes, don’t be all that surprised if their defenses get dropped along with Seahawks kicker Steven Hauschka, the top fantasy kicker in the game and also the second-most dropped player in Yahoo as of Tuesday night. Or maybe owners will keep them and drop a running back likely to get plenty of touches the rest of this season. Among the top 25 most dropped running backs on Yahoo are Fred Jackson with Buffalo on a bye, Miami’s Lamar Miller and Atlanta’s Steven Jackson. A tiny sliver of owners on ESPN and Yahoo are even dropping Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, apparently unable to wait out his injury. Besides Rodgers and the Seattle defense, perhaps, the moves aren’t as desperate as they might seem. Simply put, the weeks before the playoffs regularly force fantasy players into tough decisions that result in names on the waiver wire that are higher than replacement level. That’s when — if the circumstances are right — you pounce. Just make sure if you pick up someone’s leftover Ray Rice or Roddy White, you’re doing it with a purpose beyond feeling as though the player should be owned in your league. Unless you’re in a deep keeper league, every player you carry on your roster should have some reasonable chance to start for you between now and the championship, either because of a favorable matchup or injury. Some fantasy players will take things even further, either tanking a game to try to manipulate playoff seeding or sacrificing one week for better positioning for a playoff run. If this sounds like you, just remember a few things: — Make sure everything you do falls in line with your league rules. — It doesn’t matter if you’re in first place and have a two-game lead on the next guy or girl. You haven’t clinched anything until your platform says so. — Even if you handpick your opponents and path to the title, your top mission is still scoring the most points you can each week. That’s on you, not someone else. Gamesmanship is great, but don’t outsmart yourself. ——— THE REAL BUSTS It’s a conversation every year: Who are the biggest breakouts and busts? There are many ways to measure, and here’s another: The following players are owned the most often on last-place teams in CBS Sports leagues. QB: Tom Brady, New England; Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco. Some people believe Brady is on the upswing after throwing for 296 yards and a touchdown Monday night against Carolina. Kaepernick’s rushing numbers aren’t enough to make up for his low passing totals. There are 15 quarterbacks who have more total points in standard leagues that tally four points per touchdown passing. RB: C.J. Spiller, Buffalo; Trent Richardson, Indianapolis; Ray Rice, Baltimore; Steven Jack- son, Atlanta; Maurice Jones-Drew, Jacksonville. All five players were taken on average in the first two rounds of fantasy drafts this year. WR: Roddy White, Atlanta; Marques Colston, New Orleans; Hakeem Nicks, New York Giants; Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona; Steve Smith, Carolina. It’s probably not hard to guess that Fitzgerald has been the most productive of this group this year. But 20 receivers have been even better, including Riley Cooper and Jerricho Cotchery. No tight ends made CBS’s top 12 list of players most often on last-place teams. But as a bonus, here’s a list of the players most often on first-place teams: QB: Peyton Manning, Denver; Matthew Stafford, Detroit. RB: LeSean McCoy, Philadelphia; Jamaal Charles, Kansas City; Matt Forte, Chicago; Marshawn Lynch, Seattle; Knowshon Moreno, Denver. WR: Calvin Johnson, Detroit; DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia; Jordy Nelson, Green Bay; Demaryius Thomas, Denver. TE: Jimmy Graham, New Orleans. ——— RINGER TIME: STEPHANIA BELL ESPN’s injury expert, Stephania Bell, doesn’t think it’s a sure thing that the NFL is seeing more injuries this season than in years past, though she’s kept plenty busy and fantasy owners certainly seem to believe it’s the case. “Somehow I hear people say that every year. Is every year the worst we’ve ever seen? It’s a fascinating question,” said Bell, a licensed physical therapist who has a practice in California and analyzes Karen Schiely | Akron Beacon Journal | MCT photo Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson catches the ball for a first down in front of Cleveland Browns defensive back Joe Haden during the first quarter at Cleveland Browns Stadium Sunday, Sept. 9, 2012 in Cleveland, Ohio. The Eagles defeated the Browns, 17-16. injuries for ESPN (http:// es.pn/16d6Odh). “I, for one, would be reluctant to throw that out,” she said. But Bell says NFL teams are approaching injuries differently in terms of how they’re handled and reported. And while it might be easy for fans to point to rules governing hits, concussions and the league’s collective bargaining agreement, spikes or dips are possible in any given season, making it hard to judge even one year in isolation, she said. “They’re removing players from injury now differently than they were before,” Bell said. “Think about the fact that now everything’s much more public.” But no matter how 2013 ends up comparing with other years, Bell says this season has reinforced for her that running backs are the most fragile position in fantasy football. “It’s playing out again this year — not that it’s always going to be dramatic abuse but we see all these guys banged up,” Bell said. Bell said it’s tough to find any top running backs who haven’t appeared on their team’s injury report at some point this season, making it understandable why more teams are turning to two-running back sets. As a fantasy player, Bell said she uses her expertise most often on draft day, changing her priorities based on players she believes have a higher chance of hurting themselves during the year. She says that the biggest predictor of future injury is prior injury, and soft-tissue injuries are often more troublesome than bone breaks or other random contact injuries. “I will hear people talk about guys and if there’s something about their injury history I don’t like, they become undraftable for me,” she said. She’s happy if they end up staying healthy and performing well, but “I’m still going to say I made the right decision for me.” 60466813 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
