Sidne~· Poitier could have

The acting legend came to

Not just any award; Poitier
and 15 others were getting
the highest honor the U.S.

Even as a smiling Obama
approached, holding the
blue-ribboned
medal.
Poi tier still showed no emotion.
Even as an announcer

SEPARATE FACT FROM FICTION I
•
I

FICTIO!\': The Yellow Page directories are read regularly by a large audience.·

FJ CTIO~:

FACT: The Yellow Page~ is a highly passive advertising medium. In the homes and
bu~inesses throughout your area, the Yellow Pages directory remams closed more than 99%
of the time. Because the Yellow Pages 1s read and used so seldom, }our display advertising
becomes ineffective.

FACT: It's hard to be creative when you haye to limit your me sage. Harder ,till "hen )OU
realize you can only change that message once a year. Yellow Page advertbing by nece~sity is
stagnant, passive advertising. Your products change. Your services offered change. Your prices
change. Your customers change. So should your advertising!

F ICTION: All your customers will use the Yello" Pages.

FICTION: Your ad should bl.l as large as your competitors.

FACT: Referral or. repeat customers already know you, or have you in mind. What they
probably need is your phone number or locations. And that doesn't require an ad in the
Yellow Pages. The white pages are much more convenient as an caS) reference. Did }OU
knoY. the white pages are used 8 times more frequently than the Yellow Pages?

FACT. The size of your ad is not as Important as the content. Here's where you can work
smart and save your valuable advertising dollars. Your ad tn a directory should be large
enough to get acros&lt;&gt; a quick, simple message. Buy the space you need, not the space your
competitor bays. You'll ha\ e cost efficient Yellow Page advertising.

F ICTION: Yellow Page directories create brand awareness.

FICTIOX It's best to have your ad at the beginning of a da~sification in the Yellow Pages.

FACT: Brand awareness or store image arc an important part of your advertising plan. Thl.l
key to success for you is repetition and exposure, something the Yellow Pages cannot
provide. If the Yellow Pages. built brand .a" arenc;ss, you would st;e large ads from maJor
manufacturers.1ike Coca Cola or Sealy mattress, in the Yellow Pages. But you dpn 't because
the Yellow Pages are meant to be a directory and are not at all effective In creating brand
awareness or promoting the Image of your busines~ ..

FACT: Yellow Pages arc designed with bid ads at the head of the classification and !'&gt;mall ads
last. Have you been told to get to the head of the list by buying the biggest ad? Biggest isn't
always best! See for yourself. Pick up the phone book and lind your ad. 1\lme times out of ten,
you start at the back of the directory and flip pages toward the front . .\tost o : the time the first
ads) ou see in a classification are the small ads.

Yellow Page directory advertising is creative, active advertising.

F ICTIO"" Display ad\'ertising is necessary and effecthe inn Yello\\ Pages directol).
FICTI O~:

Yellow Page directories sell prOducts.

FACT: Yellow Pages are not dt•signed to sell. You're not allowed to advertbe the pnces of
your products or services. You're not allowed to tell the reader why you should be chosen
over your competitor. The Yellow Pages arc just a reference tool, a directory. How can your
display advertising work the best for you if you're not able to prm•1dc the information needed
for a potential customer to make a decisiOn between competing products or sen•ices?

FA~T:. Dbpla) .advert bing is ~:ompletely out of context 111, a directory. People use a director)
to ltnd mformatwn about where a product or service i-. sold. E\'cn after they've found your
store\ name and phone numhl!r. they 'II probably continue to look through other listing. 1\

. Be mzndful of dad's grzef - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - BY KATHY MITCHELL
• AND MARCY SUGAR

Dear Annie: My mother
diagnosed with terrnicancer three years ago,
d she recently passed
away. She was a wonderful
' woman. and she and my
father had a loving 31-year
· man·iage.
lt hasn't even been a
• month since Mom died, and
my dad has already signed
• up for online dating networks. He is ~:cry co-depen. dent and wants to find
someone to be intimate
• with. who will also clean his
' house and take care of him
like our mother did.
Mv sister and I think it
. would be good for Dad to
meet someone in a few
· · months, but right no\v it feeh
· like he's jumping into the
' dating pool too soon. We're
concerned someone might
take advantage of him finan- ·
• : cially because he's not thinking clearly. He hasn't grieved
• much since her death, and we
~lievc he might be trying to
W .!.l the void instead of deal, mg with his feelings. Should
we approach him about this
• or let him do what he wants
- regardless of the consequences'? - Missing Mom
in Missouri
·· Dear Missouri: You
.: sound like you have a level
• head on your shoulders.
Widowers, in particular,
often look for companionship immediately after their
spouse dies because they do
not like being alone and
• have always had someone
to take care of them. It's
also possible your father has
been quietly grieving for
three years and is ready to
· get out there agam.
Talk to him about your
concerns. Tell him y.pu
understand why he wants to
• meet someone and you are
all in favor, but unfortunate• ly, there are women who
ey upon vulnerable, lonemen and you want to be
re he is protected. Ask
I
n not to rush into anyng and to let you get to
O\., the women he b dat. ing. Then keep a close eye
on the situation.
Dear Annie: Please tell
the rest of the world that not

who didn't give her name,
and I couldn't identify her

by e-mail these days , And
you can see who is sending
the message. When they

that I have no clue who Is on
the other end of the line.
When l call someone. l

Dear Frustrated: It is
good manners. with or without caller ID, to identify
yourself when you phone.
and people should not make

reminder.
Dear Annie: I read the letter from '"N ," who has multiple sclerosis and her family
is not very understanding.
Her mother accused her of
faking it and said it was a
punishment from God. She
finally broke off her relationship with her verbally abusive mother and finds that
her siblings have stopped
inviting her to family functions if Mom will be present.
I had to wait 23 years to
have Thanksgiving with my
siblings. While 1 waited, I
wrote each one a letter
expressing my feelings about
their abandonment. When
my mother died. 1gave them
their letters. (If [ had died
first, my mother would have
received one. as welL)
My advice is for "N" to
keep sending everyone birthday and Christmas cards
(and include a little something in the envelopes for
nieces and nephews). ·Keep
your faith. But know this they will regret what they
have done. When that happens, be the bigger person
and forgive them. Life truly
is too short to waste. - Been

seeing the surprising results
of the new study. "Women

I :iaw some fresh figures
on 2009 civilian casualties
in Afghanistan this week
from the U.N. Assistance
Mission in Afghanistan
(UNAMA). They are. I'm
betting. on the generous
side both when it comes to
counting casualties as
"~ivilian." and counting
"civilian casualties" as
American-caused.
The undetTeported news
is, air strikes in Afghanistan,
widely depicted as indiscriminate American causes
of Afghan outrage, account
for only 20 percent of the
total. Suicide attacks and
roadside bombs. attributable
to jihadists, killed 39 percent. Assassinations
another Taliban specialty claimed 11 percent, while
"other," divided between
pro- and anti- government
forces, was responsible for
29 percent. In its own reckoning, UNAMA states that
"59 percent of civilians were
killed by AGEs (AntiGovernment Elements) and
30.5 percent were killed by
PGF
(Pro-Government
Forces)."
This is an important finding. Civilian casualties have
been widely, if not exclusively, portrayed by U.S.
military leadership as the
stumbling block to our winning "hearts and minds" a.k.a.
"trust"

Afghanistan.
Winning

The Supreme Court is a
separate branch of government that frequently rules
on cases critical to the
administration in power.
Sti II, because presidents
make the nominations and because Supreme Court
confirmations have become
taxing, politically hardfought affairs - it is common for the White House to
stage celebrations once the
nominees arc confirmed.
Typically. thou!!h not
always, justices have two
swearing-in ceremonies, an

Wahama scrimmage

WASHINGTON (AP) NASA is charged with spotting most of the asteroids
that pose a threat to Earth
but doesn't have the money
to complete the job. a federal report says.
That's
because
even
though Congress assigned the
space agency that mission
four years ago. it never gave
'\iASA the money to build the
necessmy telescopes. according to the report released
Wednesday by the National
Academy of Sciences.
Specifically. the mission
calls for NASA, by the year
2020, to locate 90 percent of
the potentially deadly rocks
hurtling through space. The
agency says it's been able to
complete about one-third of
its assignment with the current telescope system.
NASA estimates that there
arc about 20.000 asteroids
and comets in our solar system that arc potential threats.
They are larger than 460 feet

China opens trial of ~arthquake critic ~~~calls fOr ba~_l~n

striking nuke tac11111es
BEIJING - The subversion trial of a Chinese
activist who had investigated the deaths of thousands
of schoolchildren in a massive earthquake opened in
southwestern China. as
police detained and threatened the man's supporters.
The start of Tan Zuoren '&lt;;
oial ~'ednesday came amid
growmg reports of detentions and triab of dissidents
and activist lawyers in an
apparent crackdown to stifle
dissent ahead of the sensitive 60th anniversary of the
Communist state's founding
on Oct. I.
Tan's trial comes one
week after hearings opened
in the trial of Huang Qi. a
prominent dissident who
had criticized the government's response to last
year's
earthquake
in
Sichuan province and is
accused of revealing state
secrets. · Separately. Xu
Zhiyong. a legal activist

was
detained last week.
Tan's subversion charges
are belie\·ed linked to his
guake investigation as well
as essays he wrote about the
1989 student-led demon!itrations in Tiananmen
Square that ended in a deadly military crackdown.
BeijU'lg routinely uses
such broad and vaguely
defined accusations to
imprison dissidents. sometimes for years .
Tan, 55. pleaded not guilty
in the three-hour session at
the Chengdu Intermediate
Court that ended with no
immediate ruling, his lawyer
Pu Zhiqiang said.
One of the accusations
against Tan is that he contacted a former leader of
Tiananmen pro-democracy
demonstrations, Wang Dan.

"I express strong opposition to such a ridiculous
charge," Wang's statement
said.
Artist and government
critic Ai Weiwei. who had
been a consultant for the
futuristic Beijing Olympics'

traveled to Chengdu with
others
to

Wednesday's hearing as a

However. he said at least
four uniformed and plainclothes police armed with
guns and batons broke into
his hotel room before dawn
and took him and II others
away to another hotel.
Ai said that when he questioned the officers, one of.
them struck him.on his right
check. leaving a swollen
bruise.
"Thev said, 'If we need,
we can"beat you to death,"'
Ai said in a telephone interview earlier Wednesday.
About 20 officers guarded
them until about an hour
after Tan's trial ended, Ai
said. Seven of them were
released. including himself.
he added, but police would
not say where and why the
other five were still being

held. Calls to the city's public security bureau rang
unanswered.
A monitoring group,
China

Rights
Defenders. said about 500
supporters also gathered at
the court house. where they
were met by about 100
policemen. The supporters
were told they could not
enter because they lacked
the
required
passes,
although clerks had earlier
told them no passes would
be necessary. the group said.
It said that apart from
Tan's lawyers. only his
wife, daughter. and one
friend were allowed in.
Ai said he believed the
authorities were trying to
silence Tan for his investigation into the collapse of
schools in the 7 .9-magnitude earthquake that struck
in May 2008. leaving
almost 90.000 dead or missing. Tan estimated at least
5 .600 students were among
the dead.

At the top of the list was
the idea that a patient in his
late 70s would not be treated for a brain tumor because
he was too old - a transparent
reference
to
Grassley's comments about
Kennedy.
And what of Republicans'
claim that British patients
are robbed of their medical
choices? False again, the
department said.
"Everyone. who is cared
for by the NHS in England
has formal rights to make
choices about the service
that they receive," it said in
its rebuttal.
Then followed a fact

statistics such as health

England outperforming its
trans-Atlantic counterpart.
The British government
offers health care for free at
the point of need, a service
pioneered by Labour in
1948. In the six decades
since. its promise of universal medical care, from cradle to grave. is taken for
granted by Britons to such
an extent that politicians even fiscal conservatives are loath to attack it.
But the NHS faces significant challenges, not least a
multibillion pound (dollar)
deficit predicted to open up
over the next five years. It
has its critics too, particularly cancer patients who complain that the government
refuses to cover costlier
di·ugs. leaving those who
need expensive treatments to
pay for them out of pocket.
Nevertheless. many in the
Bntish press bristled at the
criticism from America's
right wing.

proposed Wednesday that a

vening in the fall ban such
attacks.
Iran says the proposal,
revealed to The Associated
Press bv diplomats and
confirmed by a senior
Iranian envoy, is not linked
to veiled threats by Israel
of an attack as a last resort
if the international community fails to persuade
Tehran to freeze its nuclear

"We are not worried about
Israel." said Ali Asghar
Soltanieh. Iran's chief
envoy to the
IAEA.
"i\obody dares to. do anything against Iran."
He said an Iranian resolution will seek a worldwide'
ban on such attacks as "a
matter of ptinciplc."
" I think this is an urgent
concern for all of the international community." he
said. '"All member states
i will ~upport the idea.''
He said his country sub1
I mitted a proposal"that a res1
olution specifying such a
ban be put forward for a

resolutio~ in , Sept~~1~er
1990 entitled 'Prohtbttton

But Soltanieh, who said
his country was a key
architect of that document,
said a fresh resolution was
called for because ··nudcar

world are increasing and
any sort of threatening ·
attach ... will have radiological conse~uences all .

But Israeli warplanes

reducing the chances of an .

nuclear reactor in Syria that
would have been able to
produce plutonium when
completed.
Israel, which is considered to have nuclear
weapons, has been quiet
publicly regarding its military intentions but has sent
several signals to Iran.
Most recently, an Israeli
submarine believed to have
the capabilit) of carrying
nuclear-tipped missiles last
month returned to the

SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

..: STEWART

Friday
Skyline Speedway will host
tribute to Ronnie and
Sarah Bond who over the
past 50 years have been a
huge part of the racing community in the Ohio Valley
Area and especially Skyline
SP.eedway.
·· Kids' night for Meigs and
Athens Counties will also be
Qbserved with a variety of
games and bike races. Two
Qikes will be given away
during the evening. Giveaways will take place. Kids
and under arc admitted
each v.-cek.
riday, July 31 Ronnie
and Sarah celebrated their
52nd wedding anniversary
at Skyline Speedway, something that led promoter Billy
Jarrell to planning the tribute to the couple. "Ronnie
and Sarah arc such a big part
of Skyline Speedway history and the racing community. we want to honor them
now," said Jarrell.
Ronnie Bond was a racer

a

W

•

and champion of the 1960's
through I 980's at several
area race tracks. Wife Sarah
was always at his side and
the entire Bond Family
became a common fixture at
area races. Sarah was
always one of the ones to
beat in the powder puff
races. and often both Ronnie
and Sarah brought home trophies on the same night.
When the small block
Chevrolet
became the
engine of choice and Chevy
became the manufacturer of
choice Ronnie stood steadfast with his familiar Buick.
And often he won or placed.
Ronnie's
laid
back
demeanor and competitive
on-track performance made
him one of the fan favorites
for many years.
When it looked like
Skyline Speedway may go
defunct the Bond family
pitched in and ran the speedway a couple seasons under
the
name
of
Bond
Speedway. Not only did
they keep late model racing

approached him in a restaurant six years ago and they
had sex. the coach told
police. She says it happened
after closing time at a table.
Two weeks later. the married father of five gave
Sypher $3,000 after she said
she was going to have an
abortion and didn't have
health insurance, according
to a· summary of Pitino's
July 12 statement to police.
His attorney. Steve Pence,
said Wednesday that the
money was to help her get
medical coverage, not
specifically to pay for an
abortion,
"The coach believed that
the money was for insurance. that's what she said it
was for and that's the way
his report reads," Pence said.
1 Univers1ty of Louisville
President Jame:. Ramsey
expressed surprise at the
new details in the scandal
: surrounding the 56-year-old
• coach, a sta.1nch Roman
Catholic whose contract
includes dishonesty and
moral depravity as grounds
for firing.
Pitino said Wednesday
that he'll continue coaching
the Cardinals "as long as
they will have me.'' He apologized for what he called an
' "indiscretion."
"I do want to say that the
past seven months have been
very difficult on the people I
love," Pitino said. "I am here

He said he would "be
quiet" about the extortion
case. but that he is cooperating with authorities and has
con::-istently told them, his
family and friends the tmth.
He did not take questions.
• The school president
expressed disappointment in
Pitino 's "errors in judgment''
but pledged to move forward .
· "As we try to teach our
students. when you make a
mistake you admit it and
right it as best you can,"
Ramsey said in a written
statement. ··coach has done
that today."
Athletic director Tom
Jurich said he was "a million
percent" behind Pitino and
he expects him to remam the
head coach at Louisville ''for
a long time"
Moving forward won't be
easy, even for the only coach
to lead three different
schools to the Final Four.
Though Pitino has brought
star quality to his programs .
he has also presented the
image of a dedicated family
man. His children frequent
Louisville's home games at
Freedom Hall and he often
speaks about his relationship
with wife Joanne.
Yet his carefully· crafted
public image has taken a hit
since the Cardinals ended
their season with a loss to
Michigan State in the
regional finals of the NCAA
tournament.
In April he ack-nowledged
he had contacted the FBI
about a possible extortion
plot against him. Sypher. 49,
was then indicted on :Vtay 12
on charges of extortion and
lying to federal authorities.
She has pleaded not guilty.
After she was charged,
Sypher told police the sex
with Pitino was not consensual, and said he also
assaulted her when they met
two weeks later to discuss
her pregnancy. Pitino denied
the rape accusation and
Kentucky authorities said
there wasn't enough evidence to prosecute.
Sypher's attorney. James
Earhart. said Wednesday
that while some details have
surfaced. he expects the rest
to come out eventually.
He said Sypher and her

Pence wondered why the

"The feeding frenzy seems

Pence said. "The coach has
done nothing illegal.''
It may not matter when it

difficult to overcome in

year. Among his top tips for
2009: Load up on running
backs but don't hesitate to
snag a top quarterback early,

Tomlinson, and don't reach
for rookies.
The running back strategy
paid off big for Schroeder
last year. He won the big
money in the online Fantasy
Open
Football
Championship
when
Carolina's
DeAngelo
Williams scored four touchdowns in Week 16. (The rest
of his roster included
Michael Turner, Andre
Johnson, Anquan Boldin,
Aaron Rodgers, Philip
Rivers and Tony Gonzalez.)
"I lean toward running
backs; I've always done
that," said Schroeder, who
has won four or five fantasy
titles in leagues with friends
over the past decade. "This
year, it's a little different
because obviously every
year it changes."
One big difference this
year is Tomlinson. While
Schroeder isn't a hardcore
believer in the theory that

3.0-year-olds automatically
become worse, he believes
TomUnson's injury troubles
last year give him the look
of a guy near the _yhd of his
career. Still, that hasn't
stopped folks from jumping
to take him. In the 10 drafts
Schroeder's done so far, LT
has gone in the first round
most of the time.
"I think he could be a bust
this year and wouldn't take
him," he said.
He's not so down on this
year's other high-profile 30year-old, Brian Westbrook,
despite two offseason surgeries and the presence of
rookie backup LeSean
McCoy. Schroeder also
feels Williams will be back
with another big year, even
if he loses carries to
Jonathan Stewart. Adrian
Peterson, Michael Turner
and Chris Johnson are again
can't-miss backs.
As for quarterbacks,
Schroeder usually suggests
waiting till later rounds, but
in drafts so far the top few
have gone much earlier. He
consider&amp; five worth taking
in the first few rounds. He
has Drew Brees ranked.first,
then Tom Brady, whom
Schroeder feels should
bounce back from last
year's injury. Next on his
list are Rivers, Rodgers and
Peyton Manning.
At
receiver,
Larry
Fitzgerald is ranked first
and Schroeder also expects
big seasons again from
Andre Johnson and Reggie
Wayne. He expects Wayne's
numbers to leap with
Marvin Harrison's retirement. He's expecting T.J.
Houshmandzadeh to have a
big year in Seattle and likes
Laveranues Coles as a
sleeper in Cincinnati. He's
not so high on Terrell

Owens, fearing he'll Jose
receptions in Buffalo.
Among
rookies,
Schroeder likes Knowshon
Moreno at Denver to
emerge from the giant pack
of running backs there. He
likes Jets third-rounder
Shonn Green and Giants
receiver Hakeem Nicks as
late sleepers and liked
Michael Crabtree in San
Francisco before his contract talks got so ugly.
Overall, though, he says
he's been surprised by how
high rookies are being drafted early. One big mistake
he's seen is people taking
Indianapolis' Donald Brown
too early. He -thinks Joseph
Addai will still be the main
guy there.
"There were quite a few
young players who performed well last ·year so I
think people are drafting
rookies a little higher than
they should," he said.
Like most right-thinking
fantasy players, Schroeder
says wait to take kickers and
defenses till the last rounds.
Also in those later rounds where he picked up both
Rodgers and Rivers last
year - Schroeder suggests
focusing on starters, "handcuff' players who back up
your starting running backs,
and rookie gambles.
In the early rounds,
Schroeder suggests filling
out a starting lineup first,
then taking the best players
available. A key to spotting
those players is preparation.
Schroeder usually puts
together position-by-position lists in June and reranks
them based on preseason
developments. He also
emphasizes making tiered
lists to help compare players. For example, if you're
drafting next and only one

receiver is left in your top
tier but six running backs
remain in that Cop tier, the
receiver\ probably the best
choice.
- )It's a lot of work to keep
up, but Schroeder illustrates
there's just no reason to be
that guy rushing into
draft room at the last mi

zine that was printed in
May.
In addition to his stressful '

ter, Schroeder works part

''A lot of peqple are liket

has a degree in sports management from Upper Iowa.
''It's definitely a lot ~
money, but if you don't
the right thing you coul
lose it pretty quick."
He's so far invested some,
put some away and bought
some real estate. But he's
concerned about the economy and so is in no rush to
quit any of his jobs. He
actually considers himself
fortunate after moving to
night shifts at the detention
center.
''It freed up my Sundays
so I can watch a little more
football this year, so that
was one of the main factors," he said.

Super Bowl rematch for Steelers-Cards? N.ot exactly
PITTSBURGH (AP) You can't call this Tampa II.
Six months after meeting
in the Super Bowl, the
Arizona Cardinals and
Pittsburgh Steelers begin the
preseason the way they
ended last season by playing
each other.
Just don't refer to it as a
rematch of the Super Bowl
in Tampa, not when Ben
Roethlisberger and Santonio
Holmes, Larry Fitzgerald
and Kurt Warner will be on
the bench Thursday night for
at least three quarters and
maybe longer.
"Most of the guys that
played a lot in that game
probably won't play much at
all in this game," Warner
said. "That's more for
league hype than it is anything else. It doesn't really
matter until the real season
kicks off."
No, exhibition games ru·e
for trying out the rookies,
testing new offensive and
defensive alignments and
sorting out the roster, not for
renewing any grudges.
As Steelers cornerback
Deshea Townsend said, the
Super Bowl was played an
eon ago by NFL standards,
given the constant player
turnover.
"It's just another game."
Townsend said of one of
only several NFL preseason
games in which one team
will fly nearly cross-country
to play another. "The Super
Bowl is gone and we won it,
so we really don't care about
the rematch."
Steelers coach Mike
Tomlin didn't bother to get
out the Super Bowl tapes for
review, saying what happened on feb. I has no
effect on shaping a team for
the new season.
"The big thing is to come
out and play with tempo and
speed," he said. "You run
some core stuff you know
they're familiar with.
000

We'll put some base football
in all three phases, something guys are capable of
executing because that's
what we want to see them
do. We want to see them
execute at a high level.''
The other games Thursday
night are New England at
Philadelphia, with Tom
Brady expected to quarterback the Patriots for the first
time since the 2008 opener
in which he injured his knee:
Washington at Baltimore:
and Dallas at Oakland.
Tomlin and Cardinals
coach Ken Whisenhunt plan
to play their starters only a
couple series, which means
backups will be all over the
field by the end of the first
quarter. Both teams have full
rosters~ and coaches normally try to play nearly everyone who's healthy.
"That's a different team
that won the Super Bowl and
we're a different team. I
think there's going to be a
Jot of excitement from being
there and playing in that stadium, but other than
'Revenge of the Super
Bowl,' I don't think so,"
Whisenhunt said. "Now if
we could go back to the
Super Bowl and play them
again, I would say, yeah,
that's definitely the case."
The Steelers are relatively
thin along the offensive line
due to injuries to center
Justin Hartwig (toe) and
right
guard
Darnell
Stapleton (knee surgery), the
backup center. Former rookie free agent Doug Legursky
is expected to start, and former Cardinals center Alan
Stepanovich may play
despite signing only this
week.
Cardinals first-round pick
Beanie Wells. the former
Ohio State running back,
isn't expected to play after
missing more than a week of
camp with a sprained right
ankle.

For Whisenhunt and several of his assistants, including former Steelers assistant
head coach Russ Grimm,
and players such as cornerback Bryant McFadden and
linebacker Clark Haggans,
this is their first visit to
Heinz Field since leaving
the Steelers. McFadden
played in the Super Bowl for
Pittsburgh before signing
with Arizona.
"I was there so long, I
used to say, 'I wonder how it
would be in the visitors'
locker room,' " said
Haggans, who played for
Pittsburgh from 2000-07.
"So I guess I'm going to get
my taste this time around.
It becomes monotonous hitting on your teammates all
the time. You just want to go
crack some heads on the
other team."
Even if it doesn't count.

guard Stacy Andrews will sit
out Thursday night for precautionary reasons after having offseason knee surgery.

Cavaliers sign injured free agent F Leon Powe from Boston
CLEVELAND (AP) The Cleveland Cavaliers
signed free agent forward
Leon Powe, who as a youth
played with LeBron James on
several AAU teams, to a twoyear contract on Wednesday.
Powe won't be playing
with James anytime soon. He
played in 70 games with the
Boston Celtics last season,
but tore the ACL in his left
knee in the playoffs and had
reconstructive surgery on
May5 .

It was the third majqr medical procedure Powe has
endured on the knee. He isn't
expected to be ready to piax
for the Cavaliers unttl
February.
But the Cavs, in need of
frontcourt depth, saw Powe
as a.player who could help at
some point in 20 l 0.
"Leon is a high quality
player and person. His tough,
gritty play has already con
Lributed in big playoff games
during his young career,"

Cavaliers general manager
Danny Ferry said in a statement. "As he continues to
work rehabilitating his injury,
we would look to hopefull;
see him return toward the end
of the season."
Powe. who averaged 7.7
points and 4.9 rebounds per
game last season, will receive
the league minimum for a
third-year veteran player. The
Cavaliers hold an option for
2010-Il.
Powe considered only con-

tenders and chose
Cavaliers over the L
Angeles Lakers. Dallas
Mavericks and Miami Heat,
among others, according to
his agent. Aru·on Goodwin.
"A Jot of teams will tell a
guy, 'Come see us when
you're healthy,"' Goodwin
said. ''The Cavs were saying,
'Come here now and we'll
help you get healthy."'
Powe was drafted in the
second round by the Denver
Nuggets in 2006.
