ODOT: Bridge safe for travel

SPORTS

Deck the halls and get to SAYRE'S for the best holid~y
deals in town. Right now, our entire inventory of pre-owned
vehicles has been reduced up to sa,ooo. 00

}~

Officer Stephanie Filson said
the bridge is considered safe,
and that motorists shou ld not ,
be concerned about its safety
based on the predictions of a
television psychic.
"We deal with engineering
and science. fact and data," said
ODOT Public Information
Officer Stephanie Filson, "and
data suppons that the bridge is
perfectly safe for motorists."
"ODOT makes minor maintenance repairs every year, and
inspects the bridge every year.
Those are matters of regular
upkeep, and are 1101 an indica-

tion of any structuml problems ...
'The
Pomeroy/Mason
Bridge is an old bridge, to be
sure, and we have to take
care of it. That's why we
inspect it anqually, and that
inspection was performed
only recently.'' Filson said.
Filson said repairs made
earlier this month were a matter of routine maintenance.
'The December repairs were
simply a matter of annual
upkeep," Filson said "Our wOIXer.; were doing their wm on the
bridge itself, and ODOT deemed
it safer for both the wmers and

motorists to close the·bridge during the working hour.;- at night
- for everyone· s safety...
'Those repairs were scheduled for a period of 10 days, and
were completed .in two days.
That's hardly a 'major repair. "'
If (OOOT) felt there wa' a
safety issue with the bridge,
we would no1 let people drive
on it,'' Filson said, "ODOT
has such a collective amount
of expenise in the field of
design and structural engineering, that I'm personally
conlident, and ODOT is contident, that the bridge is safe."

Salesman run over
by getaway car
CANTON
(AP)
Authorities said a saleman's large frame may
have saved his life when
he allegedly was run over
by a getaway car following
a theft at a Canton electronics store where he
worked.
The car finally was
'stopped by an off-duty
Summit County sheriff's
deputy who was in the
store on Saturday.
The
driver,
Ch~isty
Brown, 24, of Louisville,
was charged with vehicular
assault ·and 'her companion,
Thad Carr, 26, of Canton,
was charged with robbery
and
vehicular
assault,
police said.
According to · a Stark
County sheriff's repoh,
salesman Mustafa AbduiWaajid, 19, of Canton
spotted Carr trying to leave
the store with a $1,600
DVD car player.
"I started to chase after

plate,"
AbduiWaajid said.
As he stood behind the
car memorizing . the plate,
the car leaped in reverse,
knocking
him
down,
Abdul-Waajid said.
A back tire ran onto his
left shoulder but . not over
it. Authorities credited his
330-pound
frame
with '
stopping the car: He

"He was the stopper to
the tire," said Summit
County
Deputy
Frank
, Cocciolone, who ran out of
the store seconds behind
Abdui-Waajid .
"It was just grinding him
into the, ground and the
exhaust was burning the
heck out of his body."
Cocciolone said he identified himself as a police
officer, drew his gun, and
yelled for the two to stop
the car.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Tuesday. Dec. 30, the 364th day of 2003. There is
one day left in the year. ·
Today's Highlight in History:
· One hundred years ago, on Dec. 30, 1903, about 600 people
died when fire broke out at the recently opened Iroquois
Theater in Chicago.
On this date:
In 1852, future President Rutherford B. Hayes married Lucy
Ware Webb in Cincinnati.
In 1853, 150 years ago , the United States bought some
45,000 square miles of land from Me~ico in a deal known as
the Gadsden Purchase.
In 1911, Sun Yat-sen was 'elected the first president of the
Republic of China.
In 1922, Vladimir I. Lenin proclaimed the establishment of
the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
In 1936, \he United Auto Workers union staged its first ' sit·down' strike, at the Fisher Body Plant Number One in Flint,
· Mich.
In 1940, California's first freeway, the Arroyo Seco
Parkway connecting Los Angeles and Pasadena, was official·
ly opened.
In 1944, King George II of Greece proclaimed a regency to
rule his country, virtually renouncing the throne.
In 1948, the Cole Porter musical 'Kiss Me, Kate' opened on
Broadway.
In 1972. the United States halted its heavy bombing of
.
North Vietnam.
In 1978, Ohio State University fired Woody Hayes as its
football coach, one day after Hayes punched Clemson
University. player Charlie Bauman during the Gator Bowl
after Bauman intercepted an Ohio pass.
Ten years ago: Israel and the Vatican agreed to recognize
each other. Hollywood agent Irving 'Swifty ' Lazar died in
Beverly Hills, Calif., at age 86.
Five year' ago: Weak but radiant with pride, Nkem
Chukwu, the mother of the Houston octuplets, went home
from the hospital.
One year ago: A suspected extremist killed three U.S. missionaries at a Baptist hospital in Yemen. (Abed Abdul Razak
Kamel was sentenced to death in May for killing the missionaries.) China catapulted a fourth unmanned craft into orbit.

Thought for Today: 'The meek shall inherit the earth - if
that's all right with you.'- Anonymous.

Tuesaa,y, Decem~eW:-:l003

No president is above the law
On Dec. 18, the .Second
Circuit Court of Appeals sent
a fundamental me ssage to
President Bush and · all
Americans who depend on
the separation of powers that
undergirds our democracy. ·
In the case of Amencan
citizen Jose Padilla, held solely on the authority of the
president - for 18 months in
a Charleston, S.C., brig without charges, indefinitely and
without access to a lawyer as
an enemy combatant , the
Second Circuit ruled:
' The president, acting
alone, possesses no inherent
constitutional authority to
detain American citizens
seized wiihin the United
States, away from the zone of
combat, as enemy combat·ants.'
In ' the 2-1 decision, the
majority cited a 1971 NonDetention Act by Conllress,
which itself was a reacuon to
the widely criticized imprisonment
of
JapaneseAmericans 111 detention
camps during World War II.
The act unequivocally states
that, ' No cittzen shall be ...
detained by the United States
except pursuant to an act of
Congress.'
Actually, back in 1936 (in
Valentine v. U.S.), the
Supreme Court had declared
that 'the Constitution creates
no executive prerogative to
dispose of the liberty of the
individual.
Proceedings
against him must be authorized by law.' The case
involved the extradition of
U.S. citizens to France for

Nat
Hentoff

cnmes allegedly committed
there.
the Padilla case, the
Second Circuit Court of
Appeals emphasized that
Congress has not passed, in
our war on terrorism, a law
giving the president, as commander-in-chief, the unilateml
power to hold Padilla without
the fundamental rights to due
process to which all American
citizens are entitled.
Fundamental to the protection of our liberties is the
system of checks and balances between the three
branches of government that
in
our
is
enshrined
Constitution. As Jame s
Madison emphasized in the
Federalist Papers: 'The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same han'ds ...
may justly be pronounced the
very definition of tyranny.'
We are nowhere near a
state of tyranny.
The press is free. The civilian courts are open. There are
increasing bipartisan measures in Congress to roll back
the USA Patriot Act specifically the section that
dangerously limits judicial

In

supervision over certain acts
of the executive branch, particularly
the · Justice
Department.
Nor does the administration and its supporters seem
to have even the remotest
intention of verging on tyran ny. I have come to know, for
example, Viet Dinh, who, as
a close adviser to John
Ashcroft in the Ju stice
Department, was the principal drafter of the Patriot Act.
He is now a law professor at
George
WashingtM
University Law Center.
Dinh and I disagree on a
number of actions the administration has taken in the
name of security, but he
experienced actual tyranny,
having been born in Vietnam.
and does not want to see it
emerge anywhere·. After he
and I debated the Patriot Act
at the National Press
Foundation in Washington
(while he was still at the
Justice Department) Dinh
said to me, ' keep us honest.'
I've been doing the best
that I can. So has the Second
Circuit.
The administration's argument from the beginning has
been that the Padilla case
does not belong in the courts
at all because of the president's inherent power as
commander-in-chief, during
a time of war, to do what he
has aone to Padilla. ·
After being brought to the
courts, the administration ,
still holding that view, clai!lls
that Congress' Authorization
for Use of Military Force

Joint resolution soon after
Sept. II does give the president thi s authority over
enemy combatants. But the
Second Circuit found that
this resolution 'contains no
language authorizing detention .' The president has no
power to act on his own
without a specific law by
Congress.
The court's decision, of
course, is being appealed ;
but until that is decided ,
Padilla. the Second •Circuit
says, ' will be entitled to constitutional protections' of all
other citizens. Worth noting
is that the dissenting judge,
Richard Wesley, while agreeing with the government that ·
the Congressional resolution
supports the president's position - · also believes that
Padilla. like any American
citizen, has the right to see
his lawyer. Will the Supreme
Court deny him that, and the
rest of due process to which a
citizen is entitled?
On the day of .the Second
Circuit decision, New York
Times reporter David Stout
wrote about the bedrock
question before the Supreme
Court : 'the delicate balance
between personal freedoms
and the security of the nation,
especially in wartime.'
Especially in wartime, the
Constitution must stani:l
upright for the freedoms we
are fighting to defend against
the terrorists.

WASHINGTON - Many
of Howard Dean's top foreign policy advisers are from
the Brookings Institution, an
ultra-liberal think tank that
has served and staffed
numerous
Democratic
administrations.'
Some senior scholars there
have doubts about Dean's
inexperience in foreign
affairs, his positions on
national security issues and
the war against terrorism.
'His lack of commitment
on Iraq, given where we now
. find ourselves, is unaccept" able and also politically suicidal next year if he is the
Democratic nominee,' says
Michael
E.
O'Hanlon,
Brookings' senior fellow in
foreign policy.
'At different times Dean
has called for reduced funding 1n Iraq,' O'Hanlon told
me. 'Other times, he said our
troops should be brought
home and that Arab 'troops
should be sent there. More
recently, he said the world is
no safer after Saddam's capture. I think all these points
are simply _indefensible.'
The latest polls show that
Dean is the clear front-runner
in his party for the
Democratic
presidential
nomination ,
but
a
Washington Post-ABC News
sur~ey finds that more than

half of the Democrats polled
know 'hardly anything' or
'nothing' about hin1 or his
views on the issues. What littie is known about him
among the general electorate,
however, suggests that his
biggest weakness is protecting national security, defined
by his fierce opposition to
the war in Iraq. When the
Post-ABC News poll asked
. voters who they trusted more
to handle the nation's defense
and the war on terrorism,
President Bush or Dean, they
chose Bush by 67 percent to
Dean's anemic 21 percent.
With good reason, accord,
ing to O'Hanlon and others.
Dean recently said that he
would abolish the administration's anti-missile defense
program, a critical ' national
security component that has
won overwhelming bipartisan support in Congress. Bill
Clinton backed it during his
presidency. At other times\
Dean has told liberal defense
groups that he would reduce
fundmg, statements 'that
make him sound confused,'
O'Hanlon said .
.
But it is the former
Vermont governor's recent
remarks about how he would
handle North Korea's nuclear
weapons threat that have
triggered some of the
sharpest opposition among
Brookings' top scholars.
In newspaper interviews
prior to a major foreign poli-

cy address that he delivered
earlier this ·month in Los
Angeles, Dean said he would
enter into immediate bilateral
negotiations
with
Communist North Korea. He
said he would offer them a
major economic and energy
assistance deal, plus a nonaggression treaty, in exchange
for ending their nuclear
weapors program.
This is essentially the same
approach that Clinton followed early in his administration, only to see North
Korea take the aid ~ackage as
11 secretly pursued ns nuclear
weapons buildup.
'It comes too close to buying the same horse,'
O'Hanlon says. 'We already
gave North Korea incentives
in 1994 to eliminate its
nuclear weapons capabilities
and then they violated that
commitment.
'It would be seen at best as
throwing' money down a rat
hole and, at worst, appeasing
a Stalinist dictator.'
Richard Bush, another top
foreign policy scholar at
Brookings questions whether
the United States should be
offering generous handouts
before getting concrete, verifiable assurances the North
Koreans will end their
nuclear program.
.
'We need to see a lot more
reform in North Korea's system before we consider large
amounts of assistance,' says

..'

Bush. 'What I've heard of his
proposal sug gests that there
is a little bit too much generosity on the benefits.'
Equally disturbing, he adds,
is Dean:s phidge to immediately reward North Korea
with bilateral talks.
' I align myself a little more
with the diplomats in the
administration who have no
reason to trust North Korea .
but see the v11lue of using
mul,tiparty talks to probe
North Korea's intentions,' he
says.
As for opening the way for
North Korea's Communist
regime, part of the president's infamous 'a~ts of
evi l,' to join the world community, Richard Bush says
that such talk is, at best, very
premature right now. 'We
should not leave the impression that they can be brought
mto the famtly of nations at
no price to themselves,' he
told me.
.
Even though doubts about .
Dean's national seCUrity policies run deep, his feisty antiwar attacks on ·the president
remain as popular as ever
among liberal Democratic
activists who tum out in disproportionate numbers in the
party's primaries. If he wins
the nomination , as now
seems likely, that sets up a
wartime election not unlike
1972.
Just ask George McGovern
about that one.

PASADENA, Calif. CAP)
- A spacecraft is on track
to catch a comet by it s tail
· later this week, capturing
hundreds of specks of dust
from the shimmeri ng cloud
that envelops the dirty ball
of icc and rock, according
to NASA.
The Stardust spacecraft is
· expected to tly within 186
miles of comet Wild 2 on
: Friday, collecting samples
: and snapping photographs.
· At the time, the comet and
: probe will be 242 million
: miles from Earth.
During the flyby, Stardust
should capture roughl y
. I ,000 particles of dust
, gp,~d from Wild 2 (pro: nounced
vilt-two)
by
: streams of gases boiled
: from the comet's surface
: by the warming rays of the
sun. Scientists are eager to
study the dust since it rep. resents pristine examples of·
: the building blocks of our
: solar system. preserved for
: billions of years by the

cold of· space.
They also believe . the
dust contains many of the
organic compounds necessary for life. Comets that
pelted the Earth long ago
could have delivered those
molecules to our planet.
"This could prove to be
a pivotal time for science,
a remarkable opportunity to
gather evidence that might
actually tell us how the
planets formed and give us
clues about how life on
Earth began," said Donald
Brownlee, a University of
Washington astronomer and
the main sc ientist for the
$200 million mission .
The
spacecraft
also
should take multiple images
of the comet's tiny nucleus,
believed to be just 3.4
miles across. If successful,
Stardust will become only
.the third spacecraft to capture such a close view of
the dark heart of a comet,
normally obscured by a
bright veil of dust and gas.

Protective bumpers will
sh ield the unmanned spacecraft as it plows through
that veil at 13,650 mph. A
tennis racket-shaped canister packed with a material
called aerogel will capture
the particles during the
flyby. Aerogel is 99.8 percent air, making it the
world's lightest solid.
The canister already has
swept up bits of interstellar
dust since the spacecraft' s
1999 launch.
In 2006, Stardust will jettison the canister during a
flyby of Earth. The ·canister
and its extraterrestrial cargo
should fall over Utah.
There. southwest of Salt
Lake City, the National
Aeronautics and Space
Administration plans for a
helicopter to pluck the
parachuting package from
the sky. Scientists hope to
analyze the particles for
their chemical, elemental,
isotopic and mineralogical
composition.

grant for $375,000 from tlie
Ohio
Public
Works
Department toward the construction of a new water
treatment facility project.
This is the first grant the village has received to provide
the $1.6 million in funding
for the project. Spencer said
thi s grant is just the beginning and he is optimistic
about receiving more grant
funding to build a .new water
treatment plant.
The village is waiting for
decisions on other grants
including $300,000 from the
Appalachian
Regional
Commission; $500,000 in
Com'munity Development
Block Grant funds: and
$520,720 from the Ohio
Water
Development
Association.
Spencer said the Buckeye
Hill s-Hocking
Valley
Regional
Development
District, of which Meigs
County is a member, has
been successful in acquiring
grant funding for three out of
the six projects for which'the
district has sought funding.
The water treatment proposal
for grant funding was given a
numher'one ranking.
Council approved an ordi·
nance establishing 3,000 gallons instead of 4,000 gallons
as the, basis for determining

the monthly water bill. This
reduction in the base gallonage was required by the Ohio
Department of Development
for the village to receive additional funding. For residents
in the village, the monthly (ate
$14.50 continues for the tirst
3,000 gallons and t~en 35
cents for each one hundred
over the 3,000 gallons.
Council also approved an
ordinance regulating noi se
emitted by moU&gt;r vehicles
and/or the playing of sound
amplification equipment at
excessive levels. The ordinance also includes jake
braking. which is an exhaust
system in large trucks that
emits a loud . crackling or
chattering noise, and penalizes for "peeling" of tires.
Spencer said the village's
goals for ne~t year include
securing a grant from the
of
Ohio
Department
Transportation for a drainage
system along the roadway
located between Tyree Road
and Southern High School.
Also, the administration will
continue to pursue grant
funding for the propos~d
water treatment plant.
"Next year we should
accomplish these and more
goals," said Spencer.

ity for several days and it was
through the effort of Hill and
his staff that the streets were
cleared quickly and people
were provided with necessities. Spencer said the Federal
Emergency
Management
Agency eventually provided a
$30,000 grant to defray costs
caused by the storm damage.
The village purchased a new
fire truck which cost more than
$255,000. The truck, which can
hold I000 gallons of water, was
paid for with money from
levies from the village and
three neighboring townships.
Manufactured by Smeal Co.,
the truck has a si~-man cab,
pumps 15 gallons per minute
and has a special foam system
which has become a necessity
in modem ftre fighting.
The village is 'currently
served by a truck manufactured
in 1986. The new fire truck will
compliment ·a relatively new
· fire station which was built five
years ago. The $230,000 sta. tion was been paid off earlier
· thi s year. The loans,' which
were due to be paid off in 10
years , were paid off after the
fifth year, Spencer noted.

CINCINNATI-, Reaching
th e corner of the stadiUm,
Corey Dillon stripped off hi s
gear and gave fan s some paning gifts. ·
The Bengals' all-time leading rusher tossed his helmet,
shoulder pads and cleats into
the stands Sunday following
· a 22-14 loss to Cleveland that
ended Cincinnati's season .
Dillon is convinced it also
ended his career with the
Bengal s, who have Rudi
Johnson io replace him.
'They don ' t ' need me,"
Dillon said. "They've been
winning, quote unquote,
without me .
"I had a great career here.
It 's time to move on. There's
no use asking why. I don 't ,
care about statistics, the Pro
Bowl and all that stuff. I've
bee n there. What my soul is
thirsting for is to play in a big
game, to play in and win a
Super Bowl. I' m going to do
everything in my power to
·make that happen."
Dillon, 29, has two years
left on his contract, but most
likely will be released in the
offseason . ..
Dillon' s severe groin injury
in the third game of the season gave Johnson a chance to
show what he could do.
Johnson was the feature back
as the Bengals played their
way into contention. and finished with 957 yards for the
seaso n.

Coach Marvin Lewis tried
to keep Dillon content by
alternating series with the
two backs when Dillon was
healthy. Johnson carried 14
times for 52 yards Sunday,
and Dillbn had 50 yards on
eight carries.
The , time- sharing arrangement was only a short-term
fix. Lewi s declined to talk
about Dillon 's future after the
game.
"We can't diminish today,"
Lewis said. "We have plenty
of time for the future ."
Dillon is convinced he has
no time left with the Ben gals,
who failed to achieve a winPlease see Dillon, 1o

Do you think that experts never make
m1stakes? I hope not. Do you think
experts never make really expenstve mrstakes ? If you do, read on.
First. look at the West hand. In the auction, North 's tour·club response was a
,. splinter bid. showing a singleton or void
in clubs With at least four-card spade support and game-going values. His ftve·club
rebtd guaranteed a club void. South's lour
diamonds and live hearts promised firstor second·round controls in those suits
What would you lead?
This deal occurred during the 1996 China
Cup, held in Beijing.
Have you decided yet? If so , would you
change your lead if your partner had doubled the final contract ?
Look at the full deal. North and South
were two Polish world champions. but
surety when North rebid l1ve clubs, not
tour hearts, South should have known
that the heart ace was missing and settled for five or six spades. (North would
raise five to six.)
Now let's turn to West. He knew the club
ace would be ruffed. He thought there
was a risk the heart ace would be
trumped too. So, did he lead a diamond?
No way! He selected a ~clever" low club.
Declarer ruffed in the dummy and imme·
diately claimed 12 more tricks: five
spades and seven diamonds.
At another table, South opened with one
club, promising just 16 points or more.
North responded two diamonds, natural.
When they also reached seven spades.
East doubled (as our first East might
have done). West knew what that meant
The defense went diamond ruff. heart to
the ace, diamond ruff.

Sports correspondent

RACINE _ . Backing up a
colorful ,season of one year
agu, Racine , Ohio driver
K,evin Layne once again
achieved success in the 2003
racing season by claiming
the 339 Speedway season
points championship in the
stock-medium go-kart class.
Additionally, Layne was
crowned the overall champion in all-divisions by accumulating the most point s.
339 'Speedway is located
near Barlow, Ohio.
" I set out to win the track
championship as my goal and
I did it," proclaimed Layne.
"What a year it was. This
was the btggest year of my
racing career. All the time,
money, and hard work I put
i~to my racing paid off. "
"Also, I could not have

won the championship alone.
My sponsors and my crew of
Jarrod Circle, Jason Brooks,
~nd Roger Broo.ks were a
' tiuge part of my success.
Wllho~t m~ ere~ at the track,
the c hampiOn_s ~JP ~ould not
have be~n posstb!e ..
In add1t1on to racmg at 339
Speedway, Layne . races
weekly around the Tn-State
area and earher m the year
raced at Daytona and "&lt;orth
Caro l1na.
. .
Bestdes c laJ mmg the overall champ10nsh1p, the spe~dway had a f1ve race senes
that crowned natio11al points
in the World ,Karting
Association (WKA). Among
the 150 dnvcrs that parllcl pated, Layne placed third
overall .
Layne's Kart is a "S tock"
5-HP Briggs and Stratton
mounted to a Shadow
Chass is built m Nort h

Carolina. The machine is
capable of speeds up to 70
miles per hour on the local
bullrings.
Typica l speeds on a normal
race week on the smaller
tracks vary between 40 and
55 mil es per hour, which at
just one inch of the ground is
flat out flying.
Layne' s rac ing karts are
sponsored locall y by Gheen
Industrial Sales and Service ,
Gheen Painting. McCray
Rac ing. and Moon Power
Racing Engines.
Layne is looking forward
to the 2004 season and is
already preparing with the
refurbishing of hi s 2003
equipment, and the purchase
of a new 2004 chasis and
other
equipment.
339
Speedway plans to open in
April and Layne is looking
forward to defending his
crown.

Reds sign .Lidle to 1-year deal
CINCINNATI (AP) - Right-hander Cory
Lidle agreed to a one-year, $2.75 million contract Monday with the Cincinnati Reds, who
are trying to cobbie together a starting rotation .
Lidle, 3I , went I2-15 with a 5.75 earned run
average in 31 starts for Toronto last season. He
pitched a career-high 199 2-3 innings despite a
groin injury that siowed him in the second
half.
"Knowing I was going to be a free agent, I
wanted to have a better year than I had ... I didn't have that kind of year," Lidie said.
From 2001-02, Lidle went 21-16 with a 3.74

Ben gals
from PageS
and moved into contention in
a weak divi sion.
A victory over previously
unbeaten Kansas City moved
them into first place and the
national spotlie ht. With a
chance to make the playoffs,
they reverted to form. ·
·· That's one of the main
areas Lewis will address in
the offseason. Much of hi s
attention will be on revamping a defense that fell apart
in December. He also wants
to bring in free agents who
are accustomed to playing in
big games.
"We· ve started to turn the
corner/' Lewis said. "We ' re
not around it. Every time we
peeked around it, we kind of
got slapped back. We'll keep
fighting to round the carrier."
In his first season, Lewis
turned over roughly half of
the roster but oo uldn ' t get
enough out of a team that
still tends to freeze up under
pressure.
There could be one major
offseason change. Core y
Dillon, the franchi se's alltime leading rusher, cleaned
out his locker and insisted he
should be traded or released.
He' ll likely get his wish.
"Get him out of here,"
Anderson said. "Some of that
stink is still around here. You
can still s'mell it in close

ERA for Oakland. Hi s agent was talking with
three other teams when the Reds expressed
interest about two weeks ago, Lidle said.
"They came pretty strong," he said. "Once I
learned that Cincinnati was interested, I knew
it would be a good tit."
The Reds' rotation was one of the major
leagues' worst last season, a leading factor in
their 93-loss season.
Manager Dave Miley said Lidle, who began
hi s major leag ue career as a reliever with the
New York Mets in 1997, should provide ,
Cincinnati with plenty of qu ality starts.

. games. We need passionate
guys. We need people that
love football , that want to
come here and be grea t, not
just be an ave rage Joe and
pick up the payc hecks."
Another major change
could come at quarterback,
where Lewi s has a delicate
decision.
Ki tna kept Pal mer on the
bench and kept the Bengals
in contention with a career
year - 26 touchdown passes, 3,591 yards passing. the
only NFL quarterback to take
every snap.
During the season, Lewis
suggested he migh t let
Palmer and Kitna compete
for the starting job in training
camp . Lewis was · vague
about his pl ans when the season ended.
