2004

Against all odds, a vintage year in sports
BY STEVE WU;STEIN

Associated Press
Sure shots, long shots and oncein-a-lifetime shots - 2004 had them
all.
lt was an over-the-top. out-of-control year. sensational in both its glorious and scandalous senses.
Halley's Comet comes around
every 76 years. The Boston Red Sox
hadn't won the World Ser.ies in 86
years.
Nobody ever won a World Series
or even a league championship
down 0-3 in games, much Jess three
outs from a sweep. .
A gutsy bettor with blind faith in
the Red Sox could have made mil _lions plunking down dough on them
at that particularly bleak moment
when a sweep by their ancient and
annual enemy. the New York
Yankees, seemed inevitable.
It took a self-proclaimed team of
"idiots," undaunted by his1ory or
curses. to flip fate around and make
2004 one of the greatest vintage
years of sports.
There is no more enduring image
of the year - what it took to win
and what it meant to those who did
- than the bloodstained sock of
Curt Schilling. It gave new meaning
to Red Sox and belongs in the Hall
of Fame.
Stitched to pitch. Schilling
. inspired his teammates and lifted the
suffering generations of Red Sox
Nation scattered around the globe. It
was a medical miracle. if not a heavenly one. the very opposite of what
Boston 's many pessimistic fans had
come to expect.
The signs at Fenway read
"Believe," and millions did, even if
they feared down to the last out that
something, somehow would go
wrong as it always had since 1918.
Yet Schilling delivered and David
Ortiz, Manny Ramirez , Jason
Varitek, )ohnny Damon. Kevin
Millar, Orlando Cahrera and the others did the rest. stunning the Yankees
and . sweeping the St. Louis
Cardinals in the most amazing team
comeback in sports history.
"All empires fall sooner or later."
Red Sox president Larry Lucchino
said after the Yankees hecame the

first baseball team to Jose a sevengame series from a 3-0 lead.
''1918 is gone forever." Boston
outfielder Trot Nixon said when the
Series ended. "We're not going to
have to hear about that again."
He was wrong, though in a good
way. These Red Sox will hear forever how they broke the so-called
Curse of the Bambino.
Roll back the calendar to Jan. I
and imagine betting on the New
England Patriot' to win the Super
Bowl en route to an NFL-record 21 game winning streak and the Boston
Red Sox to sweep the World Series
in the same year. What would you
have won if you parlayed those with
bets on the starless Detroit Pistons to
win the NBA title and the Sunshine
State's Tampa Bay Lightning to win
the Stanley Cup''
What if. along the way. you ran up
the winnings by betting that a single
school would win the men's and
women's Final Four in basketball.
No school ever had. Connecticut
did.
And wl1at were the odds back then
that Vijay Singh would win nine
·times in the year, become golfs first
$10 million man. and replace Tiger
Woods as No. I in the world'?
Or that Switzerland's Roger
Federer. uncoached, would become
lhe first man since 1988 to win three
Grand Slam tenni s titles?

final. "l threw the kitchen sink at
him. but he went to the bathroom

Singh and Federer weren't huge
shocks to rise to the top of their
sports after their strung play in the
past. but to win on the scale they did
was nothing short of extraordinary.
There was far less surprise in seeing Lance Armstrong pedal to a
record sixth straight Tour de France.
Michael Schumacher win a seventh

and, at 40, had a career year by anyone's standards.
They, like lchiro Suzuki, whose
record 26Z hits broke George
Sisler's 84-year-old mark, gave the
season a golden hue .
Michael Phelps imposed himself
in such a way at the Athens
Olympics, winning eight medah, six
of them gold and none a surprise. lf
Phelps didn't quite match Mark
Spitz's record haul of seven individu•il golds in 1972. he still ruled the
pool as no other man since.
Morocco's Hicham El Gucrrouj.

winning the I ,500 gold after failing

1924.
Argentina pulled the upset of the
games, winning the gold in men's
basketball while a humiliated U.S.
team. booed in Greece and lambasted at home, settled for bronze .
It was a year to take pleasure in
the overach1'even1ent ot· il.ttle Sal·n· t
Joseph's. No. I in the men's basketball poll. and to cheer for Smarty
. Jones. the Seabiscuit of our times.
Smarty Jones won millions of fans
in his bid for the Triple Crown, and
they loved him still even when he
came up a length short in the
Belmont.
Peyton Manning's pursuit of Dan
Marino's season TD passing mark
- 48 in 1984- has been a wonder
to watch. especially seeing him
doing it with poise and class and
none of the phony celebrations that
some other players have displayed to
grab attention.
"I thought 48 was something no
one would touch or get close to."
Marino said, adding that if he had to
yield the record to anyone he'd be
proud that Manning is 1he one.

Sources: Millwood nearing deal with Indians
BY TOM WITHERS

Associated Press
CLEVELAND Free
agent right-hander Kevin
Millwood is working toward
agreement on a one-year contract with the Cleveland
Indians. baseball sources told
· the Associated Press on
Sunday night.
Millwood is scheduled to
arrive in Cleveland on
Monday for a physical, said
the sources speaking on the
condition of anonymity. But
there are still several other
details to work through
before a contract can be
finalized.
"This is still a 50-50 proposition, at best," one of the
sources said.
The sides are still negotiating· the eventual structure of
the contract. which is

believed to be around $7 million.
To this point, a starting
pitcher has eluded the
Indians in their offseason
search to upgrade their rotation. The club has offered
multiyear deals to starters
Jon Lieber and Matt Clement
as well as a one-year contract
to David Wells. But in each
case, the Indians have been
outbid.
The 30-year-old Millwood.
who spent the past two seasons with Philadelphia,
would fit in nicely into the

middle of a Cleveland rotation featuring C.C. Sabathia.
Jake Westbrook. Cliff Lee
and Scott Elarton.
Millwood went 9-6 with a
4.86 ERA in 25 starts for the
Phillies
last
season.
However. he made only two
starts in September after
spraining a ligament and tendon in his pitching elbow.
Millwood's injury appears to
be the main reason why
teams have not pursued the
eight-year veteran more
aggressively this winter.

USFL folded in 1985 . For
eight years he was as an integral piece in Philadelphia' s
"Gang Green Defense."
Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie
called White "one of the
greatest men ever to play the

game of football" and said
his "legacy on and off the .

SUMATRA
(AP)
Scientists describe Sunday's
devas tatin~ earthquake off the
island or Sumatra as a
"megathrust" a grade
reserved for the most powerful shifts in the Earth's crust.
The term doesn't entirely capture the awesome power of
the fourth-largest earthquake
since 1900, or the tsunami
catastrophes it spawned for
coastal areas around the
Indian Ocean.
Despite its awesome power,
the quake itself was not much
of a surprise. scientists said
Monday.
Sumatra is one of the most
earthquake-prone places in
the world. sitting atop one of
the handful of sites where
several plates of the planet's
crust overlap and grind.
Colossal pressures build up
over decades, only to release
in a snap.
''These subduction zones
are where all the world's
biggest earthquakes are produced." said geologist Kerry
Sieh of the California
Institute of Technology.
"Sunday was one of the
biggest earthquakes in the
region in the past 200 years."
How powerful ' By some
estimates. it was equal to detonating a million atomic
bombs.
Sieh and other scientists
said it probably jolted the
planet's rotation. " It causes the
planet to wohhle a little bit.
but it's not going to turn Earth
upside down." Sieh said.
Researchers also speculated
on the extent to which the jolt
might
have
changed
Sumatra's
coastline.
Extensive damage and flooding was preventing investigators from immediately reaching the scene.
Beneath the ocean. the t1exible edges of the crustal plates
might shifted vertically by as
much as 60 feet relative to
each other. But even that kind
of displacement would lift or
lower the Sumatran coast by
only a few feet or less, they
said, and sea levels would not
change dramatically.
"Basically, the run up of
high tide will be just a little
further up or further back,"
said Paul Earle, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological
Survey.
But inland, ground levels in
northern Sumatra might have
changed noticeably in places.
Sieh said.
"As the block of land on top
of subduction zone lurches
out west toward the Indian
Ocean. you ex peel that area
behind it to sink."" he said.

stretch, or about the length of
California. It started offshore,
then
zigzagged
inland
beneath Sumatra's northern
tip , and up beneath the
Andaman Islands almost to
the coast of Myanmar.
Sirnilar to quakes on the
San Andreas fault in
California, the tremor caused
one side of the fault to slide
past the other. The rupture
released energy like shock
waves, especially to the east
and west.
While ground shaking damaged buildings and roads on
Sumatra, the real havoc was
caused by large ocean waves
in the Bay of Bengal and
Indian Ocean that were displaced by the quake. Known
as tsunamis, the waves obliterated seacoast resorts and
communities as far away as
Somalia in East Africa.
By Monday, according to
the International Tsunami
Warning Center in Hawaii,
some energy from Sunday's
waves sifted into the Pacific
Basin.
At Manzanillo , Mexico,
waves rose more than 8 feet.
Minor fluctuations were
. reported in New Zealand and
Chile, where waves rose
between one and two feet. In
the United States. Hawaii
reported almost no wave
changes, while San Diego
saw waves rise less than a
,foot.

Pacific basin because it is
encircled by the " Ring of
Fire ," the necklace of the
world's most tectonically
active spots. Sunday's tsunami in the Indian Ocean was
the first in that region si nce
1883. when the Krakatoa volcano exploded.
But rogue waves can ri se in

Thought for Today : "The masses gladly take revenge for the
honors they render u:;." - Napoleon Bonaparte ( 1769-1821 ).

In a Dec . 9 letter to the
Washington Times , Donald
Rumsfeld spokesman Bryan
Whitman charged that I
falsely claimed, in the column dealing with what some
have called "the legal black
hole" at Guantanamo Bay,
that the Defense Depanment
- in its failure to provide
due process (basic fairness)
to the hundreds of detainees
there is defying a
Supreme Court ruling.
At issue is a June 24, 2004,
Supreme Court decision,
Rasul v. Bush, which directly concerns the Defense
Department's Combat Status
Review Tribunals (CSRTs),
bodies that are deciding
whether detainees, some
held for more than two
years, are actually enemy
combatants.
Whitman oddly fails to
mention this particular ruling in which Justice John
Paul Stevens , writing for a 6to-3 majority of the court,
points out that these prisoners are on "territory over
which the United States
exercises exclusive jurisdiction and control."
Accordingly,
Justice
Stevens continued. "alien~
held at the base, no less than
American citizens, are entitled to involve the federal
courts' authority." And, in
contesting the legality of their
detention as enemv combatants. the detainees have the
right to due process - the
basic fairness central to our
constitutional rule of law.

Actually, I made clear in my
first paragraph that there
"Were two separate proceedings underway, and I focused
on the very procedures
Whitman writes about.
In responding to my point
that these detainees do not
have lawyers - ·but instead
are provided military offi cers without legal training as
their "personal representatives" -Whitman says that.
after all, these CSRTs are
"not legal proceedings."
But, since he also says that
the Defense Department is
indeed giving them due
process, how is due process
possible if they don't have a
lawyer 0 Moreover, if they
are found to be enemy combatants, they can be permanently imprisoned. They are
even denied most of the crucial, purported evidence
against them because it is
classified. And what isn't
classi tied is often hearsay alleged information .
Crucially, the prisoners are
not presumed innocent, a
basic starting point of due
process
under
our
Constitution. Instead , at
these hearings, they have to
prove they are not enemy
combatants. Not surprisingly, in 207 decision s on prisoners who have gone before
· these Combatant Status

Review Tribunals, only two
have been released. All in
all,
the
Defense
Department's definition of
basic fairness sounds more
like Chinese or Cuban due
process.
· Moreover, Tom Wilner, an
attorney representing 12
Kuwaiti detainees, has
pointed out in a National
Public Radio repon (Dec. 2)
that the Defense Department
has yet to provide at
Guantanamo, "a standardized method to determine
who is being held and why."
Wilmer emphasizes that ,
in fairness, there has to be
"some process to really find
out who really fought
against the United States,
who really was dangerous.
And not just taking the government's word on some
amorphous standard of who
they want to hold."
Whitman, speaking for
Rumsfeld, say s "By ignoring
facts, Mr. Hentoff docs a disservice to his readers; he certainly is entitled to his opinion, but he is not entitled to
ignore clear facts.''
However, the facts are that
the CRSTs have turned due
process on its head. As
ACLU staff attorney Jameel
Jaffer wrote, after witnessing
at
these
hearings
Guantanamo:
'They are proceedings
designed not to provide fair
process. but rather to rubberstamp essentially political
decisions."
At one of the proceedings
- as Jackie Northam reported for National Public Radio
on Nov. 9 _jJ_ a 27-year-old
Yemeni man, his hands and
leg shackled and without a
lawyer, "often smiled in di s-

belief as he was asked to
explain questions included
in the evidence that was
unclassil'ied .
"The detainee repeatedly
asked for proof of his guilt
He also requested documentation (about what he was
accused of) - evidence
which the panel said was
classified."
This Defense Department's
"due process" recalls what
Rumsfeld has said (in a Sept.
15, 2002, Newsday article):
" Anything that comes up in
the United States tends to be
looked at as a law enforcement matter
'decide
whether or not he's guilty or
innocent and give him due
process.' Of course if you're
worried ... that you've got the
ri sk of terrorists getting their
hands on weapons of mass
destruction or killing thousands or tens of thousands of
people, you're not terribly
interested in whether or not
the person is potentially a
subject for law enforcement."
So, at Guantanamo, you
can do · away with the presumption of innocence ,
exclude lawyers for the
imprisoned, and falsely
claim thai that you're complying with the Supreme
Court's decision in Rasul v.
Bush.
Mr.
Whitman,
Mr.
Rumsfeld ,
would
you
describe that as due process
to a high school civics class?

Many observers have worried that the Sunnis in Iraq
won't see the new constitution as legitimate (or "fully
democratic") if they can't
participate in the January
elections. Bu sh dismissed
those concerns: "More than
80 parties and coalitions
have been formed, and more
7,000 candidates have registered for the elections."
You go to the polls with
the democracy you have,
not the democracy that you
might wish or want to have,
but the test of an "energetic" democracy isn't the
number of political partie s
and candidates it fields for
each election . That's the
same logic the administration used to defend its
unimpressive coalition for
the Iraq invasion. OK, there
aren't any Arab countries,
and a lot of important
Europeans are missing , but
hey, look at the raw num bers! So what if we don't
have the Sunnis (the French
and Germans)? We have
7.000 other candidates
(Costa Rica, Estonia , and
don't fo rget Poland). It's an
election of the willing . Or
perhaps the able.

caused by regional carrier

cancellations from a severe
snowstorm and the failure of
US Airways' baggage system.
U.S.
Transportation
Secretary Norman Mineta
directed his inspector general
and other department ofricials to investigate the travel
disruptions.
"It is important that the
department and the traveling
public understand what happened, why it happened and
whether the carriers properly
planned for the holiday travel
period and responded appropriately to consumer needs in
the aftermath," Mineta said.
Comair issued a statement
Monday night apologizing to
customers and promising to
help in the investigation.
Comair, based at the
C inc inn at i IN o rt her n
Kentucky
International
Airport, said it was operating
60 percent of its I, 100 flights
Monday but would need at
least two more days to restore
a full schedule in its 119
cities. Comair planes systemwide were grounded over
the busy holiday weekend by
a computer failure caused by
multiple scheduling changes
from the storm.
The Delta subsidiary was
giving priority to customers
!lying to airports not served
by Delta and tryirtg to find
alternate ways out for other
pas sengers, said Nick Miller,
a spokesman for Comair,
based at the airport in northern Kentucky, across the
Ohio River from Cincinnati.
Travelers moved slowly
along the long rows of
stacked luggage, looking for
bags that had been misdirected or were caught up by

these two teams. Tuesday
mght 's game 1s a btg deal
How btg1 Just hsten to Erik
Anderson, a hnebacker at Iowa

"It doesn 't matter to me

cons1denng what we've been
through, the adverstty v,e've
h1t, how far we've come th1s

run through fire for these teammates and all these coaches "
Of more tmmedtate concern
for Anderson and the Cyclones
w11l be whether they can douse
the fire of a Mtamt team determmed to send coach Terry
Hoeppner out as a wmner
Hoeppner was htred as
lndtana s coach on Dec. 17 but
stayed with the RedHawks (84) to coach 10 the bowl game,
wtth the blessmg of Indtana athleuc dtreetor R1ck Greenspan.
"He said ' I don't think I'd
have a coach who d1dn't want
to coach m the bowl,"'
HoeP.pner satd Monday
Sull, 1t has been a dtfficult
Ume for the players, especially
the underclassmen who had
assumed Hoeppner would be
there lor the rest of thetr
careers And why wouldn't
they? T111s 1s hts 19th year on
the coachmg staff at the Oxford,
Ohto school No other coach
has been at M1anu that long
"He's done so much for the
uruvers1ty, but tt was tough to
take," satd JUmor quarterback
Josh Betts, who ha~ thrown for
3,255 yards and 22 TDs as Ben
Roethltsberger's
successor

" I pledged to the players that

"For us to go on the run we

this deal arrived.
In the Open Room, the contract was four
hearts undoubled. West led a low spade
to East's 10 and South's ace. The Italian
declarer pulled trump s in two rounds and
lost one spade, one diamond and ' one
club: plus 620.
In this Closed Room aucti on, West's first
double showed four or five spades. (A
one-spade response would have Oeen
artificial, denying a major.) West felt he
had to double four hearts because his
partn er had opened.
West cashed th e club ace and played a
second club, ruHed on the board. The
American declarer led a diamond to his
king, followed by another diamond. West,
who was allowed to win with his jack,
shined to a trump, taken by declarer in his
han9. Now South had to gtmss what to
do. Thm~ing that. for h1s second double,
West was more li kely to have three hearts
and four spades. declarer found whal
would have bee n the only winning play ol
a low spade toward dummy's Queen.
Here, though, it was a disaster. West went
in wilh his king and gave his partner a
spade ruH. So, Italy gained 13 points and
never looked back. winning by 157·146.
