CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The NFL scouting combine revved up on Wednesday and is at full-go today in Indianapolis.
The combine, which runs through next Tuesday, will help the Cleveland Browns and the league's 31 other teams form plans for the April 26-28 draft.
Mary Kay Cabot, Dennis Manoloff and Glenn Moore are in Indianapolis covering the Browns and the combine for the Plain Dealer and cleveland.com.
Cabot writes that Browns general manager Tom Heckert will miss the combine with a minor illness; she writes news and notes from the combine, with video of Manoloff interviewing Baylor center Philip Blake; on the weekly video feature, "PD Sports Insider," Cabot talked from Indianapolis about the combine and Bud Shaw and Dan Labbe replied to chat room questions; a video update from the combine with Cabot and Moore; video of Manoloff interviewing ESPN's John Clayton about the Browns and what they need to do; Cabot's "Browns Insider," focusing on Browns coach Pat Shurmur and what the team intends to do with its offensive play-calling responsibilities; and much more.
The Browns have talked with Ohio State offensive tackle Mike Adams about playing on the right side, writes Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal. Adams starred for the Buckeyes playing left tackle, and most analysts expect him to be drafted in the first or second round. Besides their first pick, at No. 4 overall, the Browns own another first-rounder (No. 22) and a premium second-round pick (No. 37).
The Browns don't need a left tackle because that's where perennial all-pro Joe Thomas plays.
Ulrich writes:
Adams met with media today at the NFL Scouting Combine and said the Browns and the Washington Redskins have talked to him about playing right tackle. Adams played left tackle for the Buckeyes, but he's willing to move to the other side of the line. "I'm open to do whatever a team needs me to do," Adams said. The Browns might be looking to upgrade at right tackle because starter Tony Pashos has been plagued by injuries and struggled in pass protection the past two seasons. When asked Wednesday if the Browns need to upgrade at right tackle, Shurmur mentioned last year's starter, Tony Pashos, but Shurmur also said, "We'll have to see who's going to play there at this point."

RCMP in Bay St. George seized 40 grams of marijuana and prescription pills from a vehicle Monday.
According to police, the value is estimated around $1,500. The prescription pills included 67 Tylenol 4 tablets, 60 Clonazepam tablets, 32 Valium tablets, nine Dilaudid 8 mg tablets and nine Dilaudid 4 mg tablets.
"Drug abuse of any kind is a serious health and social problem, said Cpl. Steve Henley, the RCMP team leader in Bay St. George. "Prescription drugs can be just as dangerous as street drugs. They can also lead to criminal charges."
Henley said possession for the purpose of trafficking in illegal drugs and prescription medication continues to be a problem on the streets.
The RCMP says those who traffic in illicit and prescription drugs destroy lives, homes, and communities. The police force remains fully committed to enforcing laws against drugs to their fullest extent.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - Aaron Rodgers doesn't want to come out of a game under any circumstances, but his coaches figured not being able to focus with his right eye was serious enough to send him to the bench during a critical stretch of the third quarter.
Things nearly fell apart for the Green Bay Packers when backup Graham Harrell fumbled in the red zone. Then Rodgers returned, only to throw an interception.
But the MVP got it sorted out from there, rallying the Packers to a 28-27 comeback win over the New Orleans Saints at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Rodgers threw a go-ahead touchdown to Jordy Nelson in the fourth quarter, allowing the Packers to shake off a week's worth of controversy.

Green Bay Packers' Jordy Nelson spikes the ball after his fourth-quarter touchdown catch against New Orleans Sunday.
"We've probably had to deal with more adversity than most of the teams I've played with, especially early on we've had some interesting games already," Rodgers said. "We're four games in. So, I think the character of this team is very strong. Winning games like this says a lot about the kind of men that we have."
With Lambeau Field fans howling about what appeared to be yet another bad call - this time by the regular officials, not the replacements - the Saints' Garrett Hartley missed a 48-yard field goal attempt with just under three minutes remaining.
Rodgers threw for 319 yards with four touchdowns and an interception for the Packers (2-2).
Driving the Packers deep into Saints territory in the third quarter, Rodgers got roughed up by Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins and was poked in the eye as Jenkins was flagged for a face mask.
"I wanted to stay in the game - obviously, I don't like coming out for anything," Rodgers said. "Just didn't have any depth perception immediately thereafter and so I figured we were a yard away and we could punch that thing in there. Unfortunately, didn't happen."
Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Rodgers wasn't required to come out of the game for a play because of the penalty. But the Packers were being cautious.
"He could not refocus with his right eye, so with that the medical staff wanted to get him to the sideline," McCarthy said. "I don't know if they put the eye drops in, that was the discussion on the field. That's why we took him out at that point. But he wanted to stay in. He was able to stay in because the injury occurred on a penalty. But we took the high side of caution here and unfortunately it resulted in that fumble."
Harrell tripped and fumbled as he tried to hand it off, allowing the Saints to get the ball. Brees then found Joseph Morgan wide open behind the defense for an 80-yard touchdown and a 24-21 lead.
"I mean, that play could happen to anybody, including myself," Rodgers said. "We run an outside zone on the goal line there's often penetration and he was trying to make a handoff while falling down which is something that I've done before and it's just unfortunate that we weren't able to complete that handoff. He'll be fine."
Rodgers then threw an interception to Patrick Robinson and the Saints drove for a 27-yard field goal by Hartley to take a 27-21 lead with 13:04 remaining.
With the Packers trailing by 6, Rodgers led a drive that ended with an 11-yard strike to Nelson.
Drew Brees threw for 446 yards with three touchdowns for the winless Saints (0-4). He has now has thrown at least one touchdown in 47 straight regular-season games, tying the NFL's all-time mark set by Johnny Unitas.
"Yeah, it's disappointing," Brees said of the loss. "It stinks. But despite where we're at, right now I think this team's going to do something."
After Rodgers' touchdown to Nelson, Darren Sproles appeared to fumble the ensuing kickoff but officials ruled that he was down by contact. Replays showed that the ball clearly came out, but the Packers were out of replay challenges, leaving Packers fans screaming at the officials for the second week in a row.
Brees then led the Saints into field goal range, and Hartley hit a 43-yard attempt - but the Saints were called for holding, forcing Hartley to line up a 53-yarder. The Packers then were called for encroachment, leaving Hartley to try a 48-yarder and he missed it wide left.
"You guys were all happy that the officials were back, and we tried to tell you that they'd still get booed," Nelson said with a laugh.

SLEEPY EYE - After a tense battle that went down to the wire, senior Claire Krumbach hit one of the biggest free throws of her life when her team needed her to.
Despite having hit 1-of-9 free throws up until that point, the five-year varsity starter scored the game-winning point in the first of two free throws to give No. 3-seeded Sleepy Eye a 75-74 overtime victory against No. 6-seeded Springfield in the Section 2A North quarterfinals on Monday.
The Indians (16-9, 9-7 Tomahawk) held on despite shooting 6-of-21 at the free-throw line in the second half - a lull that included eight-straight misses.
"We went from being the best free-throw shooting teams in the conference to statistically probably the worst," said Sleepy Eye coach Ryan Hulke. "Credit to the girls - they stuck with it, battled down. Defensively, we weren't so good tonight, but we did enough to win down the stretch."
Krumbach scored four of the Indians' six points in overtime to finish with 19. Justine Gonzalez led all scorers with 20 points.
The Tigers (14-12, 10-6) battled back from being down by as much as 14 points in the first half to close the gap to six by halftime. Leading the way for them was senior Therese Roiger, who finished with a team-high 18 points from the inside.
"She played very well, played strong," said Springfield coach Paul Arnoldi. "She had the task of guarding [Josie] Schieffert on the inside and did some great things for us on the offensive end too."
Behind Roiger, Springfield also had three players with 14 points each - Joeli Arnoldi, Sonja Fiedler and Vishe Rabb.
Rabb, the only freshman on Springfield's varsity roster, got hot in the second half, draining two 3-pointers and an inside jumper to finish shooting 5-of-10 in regulation.
"She came up at the end of the year, played B-squad and about the last six-to-eight games she came up," Arnoldi said of Rabb. "She's a very talented kid and made some big baskets tonight and played very well for us."
Even though Rabb provided Springfield with a sharp-shooting threat down the stretch, Sleepy Eye one-upped its opponent with eighth-grader Madison Heiderscheidt.
After netting five points on 2-of-3 shooting in the first half, Heiderscheidt went off in the second with 10 points on 3-of-5 shooting to finish with 15.
"Maddy Heiderscheidt was outstanding for us," Hulke said. "She's an eighth-grader playing in the biggest game of her life and she was outstanding tonight. So much, much credit to her."
Springfield caught a big break with less than a minute to go in regulation. After hitting a 3 to put Sleepy Eye up 67-66, Heiderscheidt stole the ball and was supposedly fouled near the basket in the process of converting a layup for a potential three-point play. However, the opposite ref first called a foul on Arnoldi as Heiderscheidt was in the act of stripping her of the ball on the Tigers' end of the court, negating the chance for a three-point play.
Since the Tigers were in the double bonus, Heiderscheidt still had an opportunity to put her team up by three, but missed both free throws to keep the score at 67-66.
Splotches of free throws here and there gave Sleepy Eye a 69-67 lead with roughly 15 seconds to go, but Fiedler received the ball right after that mark hit the scoreboard and jetted down the court to net the game-tying layup with 05.4 seconds remaining, eventually sending it to overtime.
It was there where Krumbach came through for the Indians with a 2-of-4 stand at the free-throw line as well as a basket late in period.
"I thought we played our best basketball down the road here, which is always what you want to have," Arnoldi said. "We lose two seniors and we've got a lot of kids gain some valuable experience. Hopefully they can learn something from tonight's game, as tough as that may be."
Sleepy Eye advances to the Section 2A North semifinals, where it will play No. 2-seeded Lester Prairie/Holy Trinity in the latter game of the night. Tipoff is at 8 p.m. on Thursday at Mankato West, immediately following the game between No. 4-seed Cedar Mountain/Comfrey and No. 1-seed Minnesota Valley Lutheran.

Streaking Henrique will play Tuesday in Philadelphia after taking maintenance day; Brodeur to start
Devils forward Adam Henrique will accompany the team to Philadelphia this afternoon and said he will definitely play in Tuesday night's game against the Flyers after having the day off from practice this afternoon for what head coach Pete DeBoer called "maintenance resting."
"It was a good rest day," Henrique said. "Everything is good. Just a rest day."
The entire team had Sunday off following Saturday night's 5-4 win over Carolina.
"That hour ahead got me," Henrique said of the clocks being moved ahead Sunday morning for daylight savings time. "It threw me off guard."
Martin Brodeur, who has won all three of his starts since Olympic break, will get the call in net in Tuesday.
Henrique has scored goals in six consecutive games with nine total over that span. He was named the NHL's third star for the week ending March 9 after getting five goals in three games. He was named the NHL's second star for the week ending March 2 after getting four goals and two assists in three games that week.
"I didn't want to use it all out there today," Henrique said of not practicing. "I'm trying to save some. No, it's just a rest day. Nothing other than that. Tomorrow's a huge game for us again. We have to be ready and play even better than we did last game."
The Devils have won four of their six games since the Olympic break, but still sit two points out of a playoff spot. They trail the Flyers, who are 7-1-1 in their last nine games, by four points.
Henrique has been leading the way offensively, so, if anything is bothering him physically, they are right to give him some extra rest. Jaromir Jagr suggested the rest of the team just stay out of Henrique's way and let him do just what he's been doing.
"He's hot, there's no question about it," Jagr said. Now, we have to take advantage of that. He should play a lot of minutes and the rest of the team we should somehow not mess it up for him."
Henrique had struggled at times this season after signing a six-year, $24 million contract as a restricted free agent in on Aug. 26. He was on pace to score 20 goals with 14 in 59 games before the Olympic break, but had only 13 assists.
He was cold going into the break with no goals and just one assist over the last seven games, but has responded to the coaching staff's call to shoot more coming out of the break and has been scoring as a result.
"It's just going well right now. Pucks are going in," said Henrique, who spent part of his Olympic break in Mexico. "I'm trying to just simplify my game. Just play. I didn't change anything. I'm just trying to shoot the puck more when I get an opportunity. We kind of talked about that through the break. We had to find a way to create a little bit more offense. Instead of making that one extra pass, we're just trying to shoot pucks, get pucks on net. It's going in right now, so, hopefully, it will continue. Hopefully, we can get everybody on the same page going forward and keep putting wins together."
Brodeur said what Henrique has been doing to opposing goalies in games lately has just been a continuation of what he was doing to the Devils goaltenders in practice.
"He's been doing it to us in practice too, so you knew it was coming in the games," Brodeur said. "He's been great. Actually, I've been looking for outlet passes from my zone, so I can get a couple more points. (Laughs) But, he's been great. Hopefully, it will continue. It comes at a good time for us because we needed that goal scoring. Whatever he did during that break, he should do it more often. I won't ask what he did, but offensively he's been doing well."
That Henrique has gotten hot at an important time of the season shouldn't be that surprising because he's earned a reputation for coming through in the clutch that dates back to his junior days.
In 2009-10 with Windsor, he led all players with 20 goals in 19 playoff games and helped the Spitfires capture their second consecutive Memorial Cup. And, of course, in the 2012 playoffs with the Devils, Henrique scored series-clinching overtime goals against Florida in the first round and against the Rangers in the Eastern Conference Finals.
"He's proven that he's able to perform under some of the pressure situations," Brodeur said. "You look at two years ago and some of the overtime goals he scored, even when he was in junior to do it too. There's a reason why Lou wanted to keep him around for the long contract that he signed. But, you're always as good as the last time you do it, I guess."
"I don't that's an accident that a guy like that his whole career has that reputation," DeBoer said. "I think that's God-given. I don't think that's something you can teach, but you back in this guy's history, back to junior in the Memorial Cup and the playoffs with us, he has an ability to find another level this time of year and in the playoffs and that's a key ingredient."
Henrique's hot streak began when he moved to left wing to play on a line with Patrik Elias as his center. He did not cool off Saturday when DeBoer moved him back to center on a line with Ryane Clowe and Michael Ryder. He scored two more goals in a 5-4 win over Carolina.
"I thought we played well," Henrique said. "Before the break, we were together for quite a while and we were playing well. We had a couple games right before where we didn't get on the board, but we kind of just talked a little bit when we got back about what we need to do to help the team win. We've got to score goals and make plays and be solid defensively. There's not too many games left. It's going to go by quick, so we've got to make these ones count. But I like playing with those guys."
Henrique said moving back and forth between center and left wing – as he has done multiple times this season – has not been a problem for him.
"It's just little things, the faceoffs and what to do in certain situations," he said. "But, going back and forth is not an issue. I'm comfortable in both spots. When I was on the wing playing with Patty, we were playing well together. And at center, playing with Rydes and Clowie, is good too. I like playing with those two guys. I think we play well together, so I'm comfortable in both spots."
Henrique's six-game goal streak equals the Devils' team record. The only player in the NHL with a longer goal streak this season is Anaheim's Corey Perry, who scored in seven consecutive games from Nov. 29 to Dec. 11.
Henrique said the streak is not something that's on his mind during games, though.
"It hasn't been. I haven't worried about it," he said. "I'm just trying to come and focus on my game and right now I'm getting the chances and the puck's going in. But, if I'm not scoring I've got to find a way to contribute still whether it's the PK, blocking shots, stuff like that. You've got to do the little things right and be solid defensively. I'm just trying to contribute, trying to be a leader on the ice and things are going well right now. So, hopefully, it will continue."
Being named the NHL's third star of the week after being the second star last week hasn't brought Henrique any ribbing from his teammates yet.
"Maybe this week I'll be first," he said. "It's supposed go up, right? I'm going the wrong way."
As far as the Devils are concerned, he's headed in the right direction.

We entered into what became a long term series of projects with Dean after some lengthy due diligence of Web design companies. Whereas other companies were disinterested or willing to say anything to get the job, Dean was honest about what we wanted and what could be done within the time and budget we had and what he could deliver. He was also interested in the projects and added a different perspective that made the sites better. And he consistently met his promises.
His approach to web-architecture is great; he knows what he can do and often sets about stretching himself and delivers some great work. The design work is very good — and he knows that design follows architecture. The budget is also very good. But Dean is a perfectionist so it can take time; but like many things, the wait is well worth it.
In business I have worked with other web companies so i can compare him to those — Dean is more nimble and you talk with the guy who does the work — a direct interface. With larger companies you meet with "sales" and what they promise sometimes is delivered by the technical team. With Dean what's promised is delivered.

Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop," is dead.
He died weeks ago, in case you didn't know. Drugs appear to have been involved, but drugs were only part of what was a very complicated history.
His life was full of talent, fame, fortune, accolades, fans and a web of tragedies, scandals and weirdness. In addition to the hit records, the sold-out concerts and the adoring fans were the accusations of child molestation and the visible, self-mutilating plastic surgery.
There really isn't much more you need to know other than, well, he's dead.
But there have been memorials. His closest friends, friends of friends, people who might have been friends if they had met him, people who would like to be friends of his friends, people who were not friends but who are talented and popular, have gathered to celebrate his life and further their own careers. Songs were sung. Tears were shed. Videos were played.
And he is still dead.
The drama that was his domestic life rages on. Various brothers and sisters, parents, ex-wives, friends, doctors and hangers-on are still flailing about. There is a custody battle heating up over who will care for his three children -- the only innocents in this whole circus -- and there is sure to be a battle for his estate. Although he was beset by financial problems, his holdings were substantial.
• Find reader letters and viewpoints, editorials, and columns on our Opinion page.
Very soon we will be treated to detailed accountings of how much his monkeys cost, an auction of his stash of glittery white gloves and full disclosure of how much he spent on elephant peanuts, plastic surgery and face masks.
And he will still be dead.
The tweets and blog posts may subside -- eventually -- but you can still count on detailed plans for the establishment of an MJ museum. You will be able to read several unauthorized biographies and at least one authorized biography. Also hitting the markets, as soon as the ink on the contracts can dry, will be heart-rending stories from his seamstress, the backup singer from his now-canceled concert tour and his children's nanny -- all of whom were very, very close to Michael and are very, very devastated by his death.
And he will stilll be dead.
Yes, the man is dead and will remain dead for the foreseeable future, but those profiting from his passing are not. They are alive and well and full of news about him even though he is now dead and not really making news himself.
I have not had the pleasure of watching any of the televised reports or of reading any of the news updates. But it's my understanding that his former plastic surgeon has issued statements, his former bodyguard has issued statements and his sister has issued statements. Those who attended his funeral not only made the news when they attended the funeral but now are issuing statements about the funeral.
And he is still dead.
He was a talented man who thrilled millions, maybe billions, with his music and his dancing. In the near future we will have many more collections of his previously released music, songs from his vault, songs sung 'round the campfire, nursery songs he sang his children, previously released songs reinterpreted as duets with live singers or maybe even computer manipulations that pair his dead voice with the voice of other talented people who died too young.
But he will still be dead.
If only we would let him and his story rest in peace.

With a buyer's market at WR, will the Redskins take advantage?
Feb 24, 2014, 11:25 AM EDT
Two years ago the Redskins the Redskins went into free agency in need of two wide receivers. It was not a good year to need a wideout as the demand exceeded the supply. In the opening hours of free agency they landed Pierre Garçon for five years with a deal worth $42 million while Morgan got two years, $12 million with $7.5 million guaranteed.
Once again, Redskins are in need of at least two wide receivers to fill out their roster and to give Robert Griffin III additional targets so he can continue his development.
The good news is that it looks like it will be a great year to need a wide receiver as the laws of economics will work in favor of teams shopping for receivers with the supply exceeding the demand.
We have already discussed the upcoming buyer's market for wide receivers in free agency. As of now there are over 50 veteran wideouts who are going to hit the market when free agency opens up on March 11. Pending the application of the franchise tag, an option until Friday of this week, the Redskins will be able to talk to receivers who have had some outstanding seasons, such as Eric Decker, Julian Edelman, and Hakeem Nicks, useful big-play vets like Jeremy Maclin and Jacoby Jones, and intriguing projects like Jacoby Ford and Dexter McCluster.
With so many options, the Redskins should not have to pay like they did in 2012 for Garçon and Morgan for comparable talent. And all of the options aren't veterans. The draft is loaded at receiver. Mel Kiper said that teams will be able to get an immediate starter or at least a strong contributor at the position as late as the third or fourth round. Mike Mayock said that this is the deepest draft for receivers he'd ever seen.
So, if the Redskins or any other team looking for a receiver isn't inclined to pay what a veteran free agent is asking for, they can simply wait until the draft and get a potentially productive player who will carry cap numbers of under $1 million per year for the next four years.
And if the Redskins should strike out in the draft for whatever reason, there will be plenty of unemployed veterans looking for work in mid May.
There are some who might say that the Redskins have greater needs than wide receiver and they should spend their free agent dollars and higher draft picks elsewhere this year. But the smart way to build a team is to take advantage of situations like this one and strengthen a position when the market is right.

Go through the draft IMO. The only FA WR that redskins should get is Maclin. Sign him to a one year deal. Nothing but good can come from. Minimum risk and high reward
- shermanp79 - Feb 24, 2014 at 6:26 PM
I agree that they need to draft one and I think if Mathews is there at 34 they take him. They could try to grab Moncrief later if he or Robinson are gone. I think they need to target a FA also. I think they could grab McCluster who probably will end up with a reasonable deal. That would take care of return issues. I think they need to draft a Tall WR so he would work well with the taller guy. I think Decker is going to get big money still so I'm sure he will go elsewhere. I would love for them to give Britt a one year prove it deal but that goes against what Allen is looking for and I'm not sure he can get his head on straight. I guess they could probably sign Ford for less and he could return kicks. I know he has potential but so does AR. I'm not sure how tall Ford is? I believe he is under 6 ft. I think getting guys with different skill sets makes the most sense. If Skins have a 3rd and 10 they put Garcon Reed AR or Drafted Guy McCluster and Helu on the field, I think that gives you a lot of options along with RG3's ability. They can even put McCluster in the backfield. That could be one reason you may not need him there with Helu but they could use him in so many ways. He really isn't a RB because he gets hurt. He can do a lot. There are so many guys out there and so many options but I don't think that means they don't Draft one. I assume Moss and Morgan don't return. We also don't know about Hank. I could see Briscoe taking his reps if he isn't ready. He could get cut at the end of TC. I think it depends on that "type of Guy" Allen wants. Do AR and Hank posses those things? Since AR is here I assume he does. I guess we will find out real soon what they plan. I think a WR will be in their early signings. You know the Skins they will sign 3 or 4 and bring them out for the press!
- Rio - Feb 24, 2014 at 6:30 PM
I love everything that you just said
- jaxjoe - Feb 24, 2014 at 9:23 PM
Football Outsiders shows AR's catch percentage as 38%; third lowest in the league. I know he's resigned but he shouldn't make the team with such poor hands
- Mario - Feb 24, 2014 at 12:51 PM
The time is now!!! For the skins to go all out, find a wide receiver in free agent. In the Draft go after O.line
- ifthethunderdontgetya™³²®© - Feb 24, 2014 at 1:13 PM
Seems to me it'd be better to use the draft to take what's there: a WR (or two) with skills that would not be available so late in a draft that wasn't this deep at the position.
- Rio - Feb 26, 2014 at 10:09 AM
Who do you like for the Redskins to take with the 34th pick. How do you feel about trading Cousins
- kenlinkins - Feb 24, 2014 at 1:15 PM
Rich, Almost every draft simulator that I run, I end up with two WR's who could start in 2014. Guys like Matthews (Vandy 2nd) and Bryant (Clem 5th) could fall to us and they are just too good to past on. The good news is that we will be able to find 4 starters with our top picks and still find 2 guys who will improve our Special Teams late in the draft. After watching the Combine for 2 and half days I can say this draft is really deep. The bad news is that we will not be able to tell what the coach's are thinking by the draft picks as the value of some players falling to us will be just too good not to pick at CB, WR, OT, and G. Teams like Cleveland with 10 draft picks could build out a very young but good team and make the play offs. Also this years waiver wire should have a ton of older Vet's looking for one or two more years as Stop Gaps for very little cost. Getting on a 90 man roster this year is not going to be the cake walk it has been in years past. IMO we will also sign 9 or 10 undrafted free agents right after the draft. There is talent at most positions we require up grades all over the place (well maybe not OLB pass rush, NT) so we should not be targeting the high price Free Agents this year.
- Rich Tandler - Feb 24, 2014 at 1:20 PM
Four starters in rounds 2-5? I trust you don't mean immediate starters. Not gonna happen. And even getting four who will eventually be starters is tough. If they can come out of this draft with one who starts at some point in year one, another who develops into a starter by 2015, and couple of good rotational players that will be a home run.
- Rio - Feb 24, 2014 at 1:51 PM
Morgan wasn't a good look, your rgt you can find younger talent in the Draft. It's all start with a O. Line and a D. Line
- Jayo Valentine - Feb 24, 2014 at 1:56 PM
In one simulator I got Kelvin Benjamin falling to us.
- kenlinkins - Feb 24, 2014 at 2:16 PM
Not sure I agree, but the last simulator I ran had a big run on WR's early and shot a hole in my plan. If your point is you just do not know how the draft will fall and counting on 4 starters is wishful thinking, then OK, but my point is that there is extra talent in this years draft and with such a talent poor roster guys I see at the Combine could push for starting time right away in the areas of RT, RG, ILB, WR, CB and Special Teams (OK, Special Teams is cheating trying to get to four as we both know that was not my first idea). If nothing else I see a lot of up grades coming our way.
- jorance72 - Feb 24, 2014 at 2:36 PM
My vote if for Julian Edeman. I've only seen him play a few times, but was impressed each game. Not sure how hard N.E. is gonna push to get him re-signed, but would love to see him in Burgandy and Gold! Excellent weapon to go along with Garcon and Reed. I'm also hoping Briscoe gets a fresh start with the new Coaching Staff. He seems like the type of WR that we're hearing Gruden prefers. Just had a couple bad drops last season that got him into Shanny's Dog House.
- bertyboz - Feb 24, 2014 at 2:50 PM
Rich isn't it the supply exceeding the demand instead of the other way around? I think they should target a receiver in the 3rd or 4th round (or 2nd if they trade Cousins) but go for someone like Kenny Britt and give him a short term incentive laden deal. I'd also give Hakeem Nicks a similar type of deal. In the slot I think they could get by with Williams or if they decide to keep Moss one more year.
- Stephfan - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:34 PM
As far as nicks and Britt coming to town I don't see that happing at all.. Yes they can contribute but in the past we have gone for decent wr in free agency and look where that has got us? Randell el, Morgan, Lloyd, the list goes on.. The only one I felt and knew in my heart would be a beast was pg because he has played that way every season he has been in the leauge. But the draft as far as wr goes has hurt us as well.. Both of zorns picks at wr hurt us bad.. The only decent wr we have drafted in a few years is Robinson.. If my production is right they will draft a we a wr or a cb first.. If they draft a wr they really better do homework on him. In the third another wr only if the one we want in the 2nd is gone.. 4th is oL and 5 and 6 should be dline and the last should be cb
- Stephfan - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:35 PM
What do you think rich
- Rich Tandler - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:39 PM
I think they'll do their homework on whoever they pick.
Before seeing the results of free agency really just guessing about that pick at 34. At this point, I wouldn't rule out anything but QB and RB although a TE would surprise me.
> >
- jaxjoe - Feb 24, 2014 at 8:50 PM
This is the topic I was hoping you'd write about. I feel better we can acquire at least one vet receiver and probably one in the draft; maybe 3rd or 4th round. I recall Casserly saying even a top-flight receiver needs a season or two to be effective. This reason is why I'd shy away from a 1st or 2nd round receiver. I have a man-crush on Moncrief.
- captblood3000 - Feb 25, 2014 at 10:19 AM
Thomas and Kelly were Vinny's picks. Vinny and Matt Millen were in a class of their own.
- Rio - Mar 2, 2014 at 9:53 AM
I like britt, he's a tall receiver that can go deep
- Stephfan - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:45 PM

#redskinsinsider #mydreamjob
- alextwrs - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:51 PM
Invest heavily in O-line whether its the draft, free agency or both. I dont like any of the free agent wide outs either. I would like a couple late round Wrs and hope we hit on one of them. Its almost like how shanahan takes RBs later in the draft that fit his scheme. With Gruden being an ex QB I think he knows how to scout catching a ball and running routes.
- alextwrs - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:55 PM
Am I crazy to think we are set at CB for now. I like D. Hall, and Amerson, is Josh Wilson on the roster and if so thats a solid nickel package. If Minnifield and Crawford can atleast get on the practice field to challenge Biggers I think we dont have to invest in a new CB, we can focus elsewhere. I understand if a Talib or someone proven is at the right price we bite on it, but I like what we have.
- Rich Tandler - Feb 24, 2014 at 3:58 PM
Wilson and Biggers are both free agents.
> > >
- Stephfan - Feb 24, 2014 at 4:24 PM
We are not set at cb.. We need to draft one and then sign a good nickel in fa. Let hall n amerson be the starting two Crawford or fa as third.. Then who ever loses that battle becomes fourth and let the rest walk besides biggers maybe.. I didn't see enough tape on him.. Let the rook get the final spot
- jaxjoe - Feb 24, 2014 at 9:15 PM
I'm a little uneasy about CB but I essentially agree that we go with Hall/Amerson. Meaning, I doubt we draft a CB with our 2nd rounder. I also doubt we draft SS at no. 2 as well. Phil Thomas is essentially a room and I can't imagine pairing him with another rookie. So 2nd round is likely a OG, RT, or DT. Good news is there's a starter in this draft in both the 2nd and 3rd rounds.
- jaxjoe - Feb 24, 2014 at 9:16 PM
'Rook'. Not 'room'
- alextwrs - Feb 24, 2014 at 4:34 PM
Any word whether we are resigning Wilson? Not a fan of Biggers
- alextwrs - Feb 24, 2014 at 4:35 PM
Any word of a transition for Rambo to CB as he did not look comfortable as a safety in the league.
- bertyboz - Feb 24, 2014 at 4:38 PM
Rambo is a safety and a not very good one at that. He doesn't have the speed to play corner in my opinion. If anything you'd see a CB convert to a safety (usually later in their career) not the other way around.
- bertyboz - Feb 24, 2014 at 4:40 PM
This of course does not mean he doesn't have the coolest name in the league *Baccari Rambo*
- dcsportsfan2277 - Feb 24, 2014 at 5:26 PM
I thought CoCo Crisp held that title :)
- dcsportsfan2277 - Feb 24, 2014 at 4:47 PM
We need to take a WR with our first pick and BPA (except QB & RB) in the draft. In FA, we need to stud up the RT, RG and possibly C if we cannot get one in draft! There are many safeties, WR and OL available in FA! Making the smart moves is our Achilles heel and I hope we have gotten better at it this year. I am glad Byrd is off the market. He is just the kind of player we CANNOT afford! Sign two good safeties instead of one stud! I hope you are listening BA & Co. NO RIDICULOUS CONTRACTS…PERIOD!
Tag Rak and pay him next year if he earns it! Definitely sign Riley and Baker to fair but not crazy contracts. This is not a one year fix. More like 2-3 years to plug up everything so don't spend all your money this year. Save a little for a rainy day If we normal people can do it so can you!
Wouldn't it be nice to feel Fedex field shaking like RFK used to? That place was da bomb! HTTR!
- Bill Mays - Feb 24, 2014 at 5:56 PM
We have to solidify an experienced #2 WR because it takes a half of a season to get a rookie up to speed. RG3 needs to start the season off confident of WR he can trust. Use early picks for linemen, lbs, and safety.
- internetcareer - Feb 24, 2014 at 7:16 PM
Lots and lots of dreamers posting here I see. Rookie Receivers are probably the least productive bunch of draft choices every single season. Tons of them drafted and yes, one or two will be productive and have a good to great season and then fans say "wow..we're gonna draft TWO of them and get starters". Truth? of all the receivers drafted by EVERYBODY this year…2 will probably be the total number to catch 40 balls or more. Even the Great Ashlon Jeffreys from Chicago only caught 24 balls his first season. Drafting pass rushers and Offensive linemen with the 34th pick will almost always get you more production that first season. I say grab an INTERIOR lineman like Cyril Richardson and then sign a veteran receiver who has been productive.
- kenlinkins - Feb 24, 2014 at 8:05 PM
Of the Top 50 rookies from the 2013 class, 9 were WR's, 8 were CB's (that leaves 33 players for all other positions on the field, yes even punter.) WR's can be shown a few patterns out of just a few sets and be a starter, plus it seems that over the past few years the better players in HS are moving to WR just for that reason. If you are hoping to get a few starters you should go WR and CB early in the draft if you are roster poor. These are facts and not feelings (and it is why so many JR's WR's are jumping into this years draft class.
- internetcareer - Feb 24, 2014 at 11:15 PM
ken..you can make ANYBODY a starter. It just means you START. I think you're missing the point that not everybody who starts is actually productive. Especially rookie wide receivers. THAT is just the fact.
- kenlinkins - Feb 25, 2014 at 8:30 AM
Point well taken, but I still think we will fine a few starters that will produce in 2014.
- jaxjoe - Feb 24, 2014 at 9:19 PM
Yes! This draft seems to fit our needs the most. I'd take an OG, DT, and ILB with my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th pick. Any combo.
- thankslittlebrandonbanks - Feb 24, 2014 at 7:20 PM
Is Jeff Janis on anyone's radar? Big time size, fast 40 at the combine, and seems to be a stand up guy. I realize he is from a division two school, but so was Woodhead and he's pretty dynamic.
- kenlinkins - Feb 24, 2014 at 7:50 PM
He was on mine until I saw him run the gauntlet at the Combine, now I know why he started so far down in the WR ratings.
- thankslittlebrandonbanks - Feb 24, 2014 at 7:58 PM
Janis would probably be a late rounder too. I agree with internet career as far as immediate payoff, however value is value. If it is indeed the deepest draft at receiver, then why not capitalize by shoring up what is undeniably an area of need. Free agency and/or early draft rounds can be utilized for ilb, o line, and safety. I hate to say it, but we aren't going to solve every issue this year. My grandpa used to say, " Rome won't built in no one day, boy "
- kenlinkins - Feb 24, 2014 at 8:08 PM
They say the knock on Janis is that he is Soft running the middle (gator arms) and does not fight for the ball. I have not seen any real tape on him yet so I do not know for sure.
- thankslittlebrandonbanks - Feb 24, 2014 at 8:31 PM
Cool. Thanks for the info.
- timwillhidetimwillhide - Feb 24, 2014 at 9:31 PM
I would like to see us sign Emmanual Sanders and Jacoby Ford. Then Draft a WR in the Draft

The last big stage show that Puerto Rican comedian Luis Martinez offered his public will be taken to the big screen, a dream the late actor never achieved before he died over the weekend. He was 51.
Producer Jose Dueño told EFE news agency on Monday that he plans to screen in movie theaters the show "Que Ojones," which Luis Raul presented onstage last Sept. 14 before a packed house of 17,000 people at San Juan's Jose M. Agrelot Coliseum.
Dueño said the show "was going to be the start of a Hollywood movie career" for Luis Raul, who died Sunday after 18 days in a San Juan hospital.
"It was beautiful that he made his farewell with one of his best shows," Dueño said.
The comedian had been suffering health problems since December, and in the last few days had agreed to be put on a respirator to try and speed up his recovery, but a kidney failure made his condition worse.
Dueño, who knew Luis Raul for some 30 years and considered him Puerto Rico's best stand-up comedian, plans to bring that historic performance to the big screen and wants to do it on March 6, the day the artist would have celebrated his 52nd birthday.
"I just helped him with his ideas. Working with him was one of the best experiences of my life," Dueño said about the comic whom Puerto Rico will commemorate starting Monday with three days of official mourning, decreed by Gov. Alejandro Garcia Padilla.
Martinez is to be cremated and in accord with his wishes, there will be no vigil, though in the coming days a religious ceremony is expected to be organized.

Update, 2:53 p.m. Mill River's protest over a controversial call in Saturday's Division III championship game was denied by the Vermont Principals Association, but the decision will be appealed, according to Mill River Union High School Principal Andy Pomeroy.
By Tony Marquis, Standard Staff
A protest has been filed with the Vermont Principal's Association over the result of Saturday's Division III championship game.
Mill River coach Art Peterson called VPA director Bob Johnson Sunday morning to object to a call made by officials during overtime of Woodstock's 20-19 win against the Minutemen.
On third-and-goal in overtime, Woodstock running back Tom Baumann appeared to have fumbled the ball as he dove toward the end zone. The line judge called Baumann down at the 1-yard line. Peterson contends Baumann's fumble went through the end zone and out-of-bounds, which would have ended the game and given the Minutemen the title. (See the play here.)
Johnson contacted the officials working the game, who will meet sometime today to discuss the call. A decision could come late Monday or early Tuesday, according to Johnson.
Mill River Union High School Principal Andy Pomeroy also sent an email protest to Johnson.
"I don't know what we want. I appreciate the fact human judgment is part of the game," Pomeroy said. "We're not trying to take anything away from Woodstock…but we do want some process and we want someone else to take a look at this."
Pomeroy, who went to the game, said he's watched video of the play more than once online. The National Federation of State High School Associations broadcasted the game from its website Saturday. The game is available for replay. After watching the video, Pomeroy said there's no question the ball went through the end zone.
"Clearly the ref made a mistake, that's gonna happen from time to time," Pomeroy said. "When you make a mistake, it happens, you own it and you try to do what you can to make it right."
Johnson, who has worked for VPA for 11 years, says he doesn't remember a protest in a championship game.
Peterson didn't see the play or the fumble, he said. His view was obstructed by his players on the sidelines. But assistant coach Tucker Peterson, who was further down the sidelines, saw the play, according to Pomeroy, and tried to argue the call with officials.
"(Tucker) asked the ref who made the call, why he made that call," Pomeroy said. "It was requested of him to return to his sideline."
It wasn't until Peterson talked with other coaches and fans at the game that he realized the call may have been wrong. It "might have had a better effect" to protest the call immediately, Peterson said.
Peterson met with Pomeroy later on Saturday to watch the team's video, shot from the press box. They also watched clips from local television stations and looked at pictures shot by fans and photographers at the game. He says that video "clearly shows what happened," and he hopes to have the call reversed.
Woodstock coach Ramsey Worrell hasn't watched the video of the game yet, he said, but he knows about the protest.
"I've heard about it, it's all over the media," Worrell said. "I'm still riding the high from winning the game — I'm proud of our kids and the way we played."
Worrell says he'll probably watch the game soon and check out the play in question. He isn't sure how he would react if the call is reversed.
"We'll have to cross that bridge when we get there," Worrell said.
According to VPA rules, video cannot be used to overrule a call.
"If that's the rule, it's the rule," Peterson said. "We're coming in this with our eyes open, we understand it's kind of a long shot."

The Eagles' ball hawk -- she had six pick-sixes during the squad's regional tournament championship run -- was kind enough to answer a few questions about her pigskin prowess.
Q - How old are you and where do you go to school?
A - I'm 14 and in eighth grade at Camp Hill Middle School.
Q - When did you start playing football and what other sports do you play?
A - I started playing football about five years ago for Coach Cam at Camp Curtin. I also play basketball.
Q - Which sport do you like best?
A - I like football a lot, but I probably like basketball better. I play basketball 365 (days a year).
Q - What positions do you play?
A - In football, I play quarterback, running back or wide receiver on offense and linebacker on defense. In basketball, I play point guard.
Q - Do you like offense or defense better in football?
A - Probably defense. That's where the action is. As linebacker, I line up across from the quarterback and just watch her eyes and feet to see what she's going to do. We have five players on the team in flag football: two cornerbacks, a safety, a linebacker and a blitzer, but the blitzer has to line up seven yards behind the line of scrimmage.
Q - How about basketball? How big are you, what's your average and what are you plans?
- I'm 5-6 and average about 22 points a game for the Camp Hill Middle
School eighth grade team. I hope to play (NCAA) Division I basketball
one day.

So close.
Every year when the Major League Baseball All Star rosters are announced, you'll hear some talking head yammering on and on about this guy who got snubbed or that guy who deserves it and, eventually, they'll call for All Star voting to be taken away from the fans.
Well, this year, in one man's baseball opinion, the fans got it right.
For the most part.
But even the snubs weren't all that ridiculous this year.
In the AL, Pudge Rodriguez starting over Jorge Posada and Victor Martinez you can live with. Beltran over Soriano in the outfield isn't horrible.
But focusing on the positive, it looks like the voters really paid attention this year, especially in the National League, where young Prince Fielder was voted in at first base. A once stacked posistion in the NL, I half expected a slumping and slumbering Carlos Delgado to get in.
Also, Russell Martin at catcher is a nice pick, even though he's not a big name.
The worst NL fans' pick is probably David Wright over Miguel Cabrera (although Wright should be an All Star).
And it was nice to see Ken Griffey Jr. recognized for his resurgence, after he made it in a few times when he should have been left out.
And, as much as I hate to say it, Barry Bonds and his huge head (literally and figuratively) warranted his selection.
So good job, fans.
But some schmo of the Steve Phillips ilk will no doubt be crying for the voting to be taken away from the fans.
Hey, it's the All Star Game.
It's an exhibition.
It's supposed to be fun.
So, who really cares?

Only a few times a year does the entire local racing community get together under one roof. One of those times is this weekend at the 33rd annual National Parts Peddler Trade Show inside the Center of Progress Building at the New York State Fairgrounds.
Beginning Friday and running through Sunday, the show serves as a one-stop shop for race teams and racecar drivers, no matter what they drive. Asphalt, dirt, off road, drag, ovals, marine, karting and cycling all will be represented at this show. And everyone coming has specific goals in mind.
Racers will scour the grounds for the latest technology and the best deals as many vendors bring products to sell. Many will wait until the final day hoping to get that deal of a lifetime that will let them put more money towards their car in 2013.
With chassis and shock technology moving at a fast pace these days, research is key. And what better way to research than to have the chassis manufacturers on hand to answer your questions instead of on the phone.
For dirt modified drivers, Troyer, Bicknell and Teo will have cars on display and will also auction off a chassis each on Saturday. Each also has specific models for various track conditions or driver preferences. Knowing which one would suit you best is what drivers hope to learn at these shows.
Canadian racer Shane Pecore is coming all the way from Quebec for that very reason and will also be looking to network with other drivers. If you want to know what a tall-cage, driver-back Bicknell Chassis with a low rack suspension drives like, you can find someone who has driven one and find out. Or you may be able to make a great deal on a used one just by walking the aisles.
IMCA modified drivers Rich Keller and Matt Roberts are looking for a new chassis for next year. Each will be on hand this weekend to do research before reaching into their wallets.
But a chassis alone won't win you a race. You need an engine, a transmission and rear end among hundreds of other parts. Complete assemblies from multiple manufacturers are on display so Rich and Matt will have a lot of work to do as they search for what they hope is a winning combination.
These businesses that cater to racers all have to try to out-do the other guy, not just with their product but with the knowledge that comes with it. Customer service is more important in racing than people think. If a part goes bad in June or just doesn't fit right over the course of assembly this offseason, there needs to be someone there to fix it. And that someone may be the same person the racer meets this weekend.
In addition to the racers and the racing businesses, the racetracks and sanctioning bodies will also be on hand this weekend. They are recruiting with a vigor and those handshake deals this weekend will turn into cars on the track in 2013.
But the biggest thing that happens this weekend is the community gets to come together and rehash the season that was, catch up on how their friends are doing and openly discuss what can make it better. So if you want to know what's really going on in local racing circles, you need to be there, too.

CLEVELAND, Ohio – It used to be that the sports world was where none of the uncertainties of life outside the lines intruded on the simple, declarative result announced for one and all to see on the scoreboard.
Then there is the Carlos Hyde case at Ohio State. His contributions to the hard-fought victory at Northwestern Saturday night were immense. So is the stigma he still carries in many eyes.
How Hyde will be defined, indeed how his team will be defined, depends in large measure on different people's point of view. To some, it has little to do with the Buckeyes' weak schedule and everything to do with an off-season incident involving Hyde.
In a scathing commentary in The Sporting News, Matt Hayes wrote, "The man who saved Ohio State's 18-game winning streak, the man who carried his team in the second half when All-Everything quarterback Braxton Miller couldn't, is the same man who hit a woman this off-season."
It is powerful stuff, but it is also an over-the-top interpretation of the incident in a Columbus night spot called the Sugar Bar 2. It caused coach Urban Meyer to suspend Hyde for the first three games of the Buckeyes' season. That amounted to one-fourth of Hyde's senior year.
The case was not clear-cut. People say the camera doesn't lie, but the perceptions of the surveillance tape varied widely.
It turns out that life imitates art. The classic Japanese film "Rashomon" consists of several characters relating alternative versions of the same incident.
In the Hyde incident, the surveillance tape led to different interpretations by different people. After the three-minute mark, the woman swung at Hyde first. He raised his hand to her, for sure. Did he strike her? It was too dark to tell, although from onlookers' reactions, she was distressed by his actions -- whether it was physical contact or perhaps something he said.
The tape's evidence was no more fixed than that of eyewitnesses, who differed in their accounts.
In the legal community, eyewitness testimony is not only not considered reliable, it is considered the most unreliable testimony there is. Juries love it, but a person's psychological state when witnessing a crime or being subjected to one is not conducive to calm, measured observation.
The conflicting interpretations don't mean Hyde was innocent. Being in a bar late at night and engaging in an altercation with a woman is very bad judgment at the very least.
But it was up to the legal system to determine if he was guilty. Although Columbus police listed him as a "person of interest," no charges were filed. That is of no matter to some people, though. Hyde is guilty in the court of their personal opinion.
The murkiness of the incident is why cleveland.com Ohio State beat reporter Doug Lesmerises referred in a Sunday wrap-up to "a nightclub incident that centered around what may have been, or was close to, an exchange of slaps between Hyde and a woman."
A central question is why did the woman not press charges?
Hayes suggests it was fear of retaliation.
Buckeye zealots, of whom there are countless numbers, probably think it was because she had a flimsy case against the poor kid.
"The poor kid" part is sarcasm.
Value inversion often happens in such cases. In the cult of Joe Paterno, true believers felt the disgraced Penn State coach, by his firing, was the victim in the Jerry Sandusky child-molestation case, almost as much - if not more - than the raped boys.
The Sporting News reporter is right to be angered by the question about "all you've gone through" to Hyde, which led to his tearful comments after the Northwestern game. What Hyde went through, as Lesmerises noted, (in his fourth post-game observation) is no more than what he brought on himself.
Working hard on the scout team during his suspension and impersonating other team's stars, all while Hyde hoped to become one himself, is laudable. So was his expression of remorse to his teammates for letting them down.
In some quarters, though, it is the slant of Matt Hayes' story that will fix the perception for Hyde and the Buckeyes.
It is a viewpoint partly conditioned by violations that occurred at Florida during Urban Meyer's tenure as coach.
It is also viewpoint partly influenced by the sight of the 242-pound Hyde, flexing his biceps after scoring the winning touchdown Saturday, which does not play well against the incident that led to his suspension.
There will always be more questions about the Hyde case than answers. It is a puzzle, not a mosaic.
Maybe even better it is a kaleidoscope, with the patterns forming in different ways each time the toy's tube is twisted. The twist, or spin, given the incident will define it to those eager to see it through the lens of gender or race or athletic privilege or the temptations of alcohol or some other cause.
The jagged pieces will be twisted and turned into other patterns on the field. Many of them, given the schedule's weakness, will result in victories.
But the Hyde incident to impartial observers should rest in ambiguity.
Many will say Meyer and Ohio State acted in their own self-interest. That is true, but, given all the uncertainties, they also acted properly.

Atlanta Allergy Testing Clinic
More than 50 million people in the United States have allergies. Finding out what you are allergic to is an important first step to effective allergy treatment. Allergy testing is used to determine the cause for allergic reactions. The results of allergy tests can help your Atlanta sinus doctor develop a treatment plan to manage your allergy symptoms.
What are the benefits of an allergy evaluation?
Many common ear, nose and throat symptoms are caused by allergies. These include problems such as recurring ear infections, sinusitis, postnasal drainage, persistent cough and hoarseness. By determining the specific allergens that are causing the symptoms, our doctors can tailor a treatment plan for each patient.
What types of allergy testing are available?
Allergies can be determined by RAST blood work and by skin testing. The two main types of skin testing are prick testing and intradermal testing. The advantage of prick testing is that it does not require needles and therefore is a good option for pediatric patients. The advantage of intradermal testing is that it may allow more specific determination of the level of allergy sensitivity.
In our state of the art allergy facility, skin testing is the most common method used to diagnose allergies. Our allergists use a combination of prick tests and intradermal tests. Prick tests involve placing a small drop of common allergens on the skin with a small plastic applicator that pricks the skin. Intradermal tests involve injecting a small amount of allergens into the outer layer of the skin.
When a patient is allergic to a substance, redness, itching and swelling will develop at the test site. Allergy skin testing involves minimal discomfort, it usually takes about an hour to complete and the results are available before you leave the office.

INDIANA (Indiana's NewsCenter) - The Indiana House heard testimony Monday afternoon on a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage in the Hoosier state.
Indiana law already bans gay marriage. However, supporters of the amendment say courts could overturn that law.
If it clears the legislature, the proposal would have to pass again in 2013 or 2014 before it would appear on the ballot.

A Response to Mark Biltz Second Coming, Blood Moon Eclipses, Solar Eclipses, 5775 Sabbatical Year (2014, 2015)
[Update: Biltz replied to this article. I have responded here.]
Many of you are aware of Mark Biltz's recent discovery; and if you are not, then you will soon hear about it. From what I can tell, Biltz is pretribulational. I do not know if he has considered the Prewrath position. I have already had folks ask me what I think about his discovery. Right at the outset I want to make it clear that this article is not about parsing out the significance of his discovery vis-à-vis Biblical prophecy.
My purpose in this article it to make some comments and observations of how Pretribulational teachers including Biltz are understanding this discovery and to point out their inconsistencies.
It is true that the four spring feasts of the Lord were fulfilled prophetically during the First Coming of Christ. And Prewrath teaches that the three remaining fall feasts will be fulfilled during Christ's Second Coming (Rosenthal articulates this well in his book The Feasts of the Lord; Van Kampen's The Sign has a detailed discussion as well). And the Bible clearly teaches that a particular cluster of cosmic disturbances including the sun and moon will be a sign of the Second Coming. That we can be sure of.
Pastor Mark Biltz went on NASA's U.S. Government website to see if he could discover any solar eclipse or lunar eclipse that might be significant for Biblical prophecy. He was surprised to discover a rare and uncanny cluster of four lunar eclipses and two solar eclipses around the Jewish Sabbatical Year of 2014/2015. Further, he found that they all landed on important Jewish holy days.
I am not going to delineate the specifics here. But you can read it here and here (It should be a foregone conclusion that we do not endorse the content of these pretrib sites that I am linking to.)
Also, Biltz did a popular interview. This is part one of the interview which is where he discusses the main issues; part two is not as significant. Here is the interview: DSL Video 56K Video Audio DLS Mac
My observations:
First, in the interview, Mark Biltz, Gary Stearman, and J. R. Church indicate that the cosmic disturbances of Matthew 24 and Revelation 6 are describing the same event (Prewrathers do the same). And they indicate that the Second Coming happens in conjunction during these cosmic disturbances (again, so far so good).
But then they assumed that this sixth seal cosmic event found in Revelation 6 happens at the close of the 70th week of Daniel. Here is the problem: what do they do with the trumpet and bowl judgments that follow after the seals? The fifth trumpet judgment itself is five months in duration! (Post-tribbers have this problem as well). Further, in their pretrib scheme they cannot place the cosmic disturbances before the 70th week concludes since they would also have to do that with the Second Coming, which would nullify what is definitional of pretribulationism.
(Many pretribbers try to get around this obvious problem by simply asserting that the sixth seal cosmic disturbance is not describing the same event in Matthew 24:29-30. This is untenable since the parallels and context between these two passages are undoubtedly depicting the same event.)
Here is where the Prewrath position solves this difficulty naturally and Biblically. We cannot assume that the Second Coming/Cosmic Disturbances happen at the completion of the 70th week of Daniel since Jesus himself places this dual event sometime after the midpoint of the 70th week of Daniel at the time when the Antichrist's Great Tribulation (not the 70th week of Daniel itself) is "cut short" (Matthew 24:22). And thus, after the Great Tribulation is cut short with the Second Coming, the Day of the Lord's wrath (trumpet and bowl judgments) will follow and unfold for the remaining part of the 70th week.
In short, the godly will be raptured when the Antichrist's Great Tribulation is cut short, then God will pour out his subsequent Day of the Lord's wrath upon the ungodly.
Second observation, notice that the theory places the Second Coming in the year 2015 (which is what the whole theory is predicated on); this then would necessitate, as they indicate from their pretrib view, a subtraction of seven years taking us to this fall of 2008 for the rapture, covenant with Israel, and the subsequent seven year "Tribulation Period" to begin.
In other words, this (pretrib) theory in essence is saying that the rapture will take place in the fall of 2008 i.e., the church has about four months left on earth.
In the interview, Biltz tries not to be dogmatic (he is trying to avoid being a date-setter), but that is the whole point of the interview and the purpose of the theory. Of course, as in most cases of date-setting, even if they are implied, once the date elapses, the individual will "reinterpret" it in some new significance. To be sure, when pretribbers mishandle Scripture such as in this case, it does not invalidate the relationship of these astronomical facts with the Biblical calendar, if there is any import in that relationship.
As an aside, Hal Lindsey was asked about Biltz's discovery and he said that he has not heard of Biltz's theory, and called it "pure speculation." How does one call a theory "pure speculation" when he has not heard of it? We are not told (Not that I am defending Biltz's schema). Second, who would want to lend credibility to Lindsey's opinion on this since he has no credibility left after his failed prediction of Christ's Second Coming in 1988. For those who are not old enough to remember: Hal Lindsey wrote a popular book in the 70's titled The Late Great Planet Earth. In it he claimed that the Biblical "fig tree" was Israel and a Biblical generation equaled forty years; then he added forty years from the time when Israel became a state in 1948, which would take it to 1988, the supposed year of Christ's Second Coming. And in the pretrib scheme he disconnected the rapture from the Second Coming by seven years, accordingly, the rapture in 1981.
In short, Hal Lindsey is an unrepentant false prophet who has been showered with royalties since then (false prophets in the Bible were showered with stones).
Reader, understand this: regardless of any significance of these astronomical events and their supposed correspondence to the Biblical calendar, the fact that Jesus is coming soon should spur us to sober holy living. Christ's Return will materialize and we must take heed to be found "blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."
As we look at the world around us and observe the moral madness of humanity, the nations, and their unbridled hatred toward God, it is indeed difficult to think that the Lord will tarry much longer.

What happened to the video with the fat asian guy talking to Bibs ? I can't find it anymore on YT ^^
What happened to the video with the fat asian guy talking to Bibs ? I can't find it anymore on YT ^^
I'm just keeping my fingers crossed hoping he gets a fair trial with this new turn of events. I know Waseem is innocent, hopefully the people that matter will come to the same conclusion.
Lawyers, what should we be watching for now?
Undomesticated Primate. Trying to preserve La Raza.
When does he get out of prison? I've heard of other stories where eyewitnesses recanted their testimonies, yet the convicted still stay in prison years after the fact.
That's my fear, too. This is Georgia we're talking about.
some tv lawyers have been reporting on this update saying that "lotti"'s retraction may very well mean nothing, that she's too unstable to be taken seriously
I imagine it would put egg on the faces of the prosecutors eager to send bibs to jail for life
Sin after sin I have endured
Yet the wounds I bear are the wounds of love
It was a big mistake, but I guess he must have thought it was such a ridiculous bullshit story on it's face that no one would believe it. When a jury is listening to a guy they're being told is a murderer, and then they're listening to a bunch of lawyers who all say he's a murderer, 99 times out of a hundred they take the bait from the lawyers.

Always get a lawyer. Always.
Even if it seems like a simple friendly disagreement, you get an f'n lawyer.
Ever see what happens in a divorce when it's supposedly amicable and one person gets a lawyer? I love those stories.

Jesus, I haven't been on these forums in ages outside of the occasional sales post. What the fuck happened? Can I get the short version?
bibs believed the mystical powers of ninjutsu were on his side
Now if Bibs could only get the kid to retract his testimony as well.
After intermittently reading these posts, I have one question, did Biliophile put his penis inside that sobbing tub of goo on the forum banner?.
Hey guys, do you think we could pool our money together and get him a PSP?

"I averaged around 72 (catches per season over my career)," Winslow said on Friday. "My job is to just make plays. When it comes my way, just make the play. I can exceed that. My goal is always to catch 100 balls. Haven't done it yet, but that's my goal. I want to come close."There's some promising players at the tight end spot, but we'd have to imagine that the Jets feel more confident with the addition of Winslow than without him. Winslow was of course an upside signing, but we'd have to guess that with a largely inexperienced tight end group, the Jets will do their best to preserve Winslow's as much as possible during training camp. Coaxing more passing production out of the tight end spot seems to have become a focus area during the Jets switch to the Marty Morhinweg offense under John Idzik's general managership.
The Jets signed Winslow, who has 438 career receptions, including 75 in his last full season (2011), after his three-day tryout at minicamp last month. Winslow, who will turn 30 in a couple weeks, only had one reception last season before the Patriots released him. Rex Ryan praised Winslow's skillset during minicamp, but the biggest question centers on the veteran's ability to stay healthy. Winslow has been plagued by troublesome knees in the past few years.
It's the likely the Jets will manage his workload when training camp begins in a couple weeks.
"I'm sure they have a plan for me," said Winslow, who warmed up and cooled down at Mark Sanchez's annual Jets West passing camp by biking a few laps around the track. "I'll be in shape. They'll take care of me."
Now Commenting On:
Speaking from Jets West, the Jets potential starter at the TE position Kellen Winslow told the Daily News that he's looking to get back to his productive ways after a year where he was barely able to contribute with any team in 2012.

NEW ULM - When you look at some of the props that will be on stage for New Ulm High School's upcoming production of the play "You Can't Take It With You," you can tell that you won't be dealing with just your average cast of characters.
In the corner of the stage is an aquarium... filled with snakes. Also to be found are a jackalope prominently mounted on the wall, a xylophone in the living room and a dart board on the back of a main door.
"It is a story of a family that's not quite in step with the rest of the world," director Sheldon Rieke said. "One of the daughters gets out into the real world and falls in love, but she realizes her family and this young boy's world are very different. She's right, and when the two families meet, it becomes very obvious."
Article Photos
The play - written by George S. Kaufmann in the late 1930s - is one that was a favorite of Rieke before he chose to use it for NUHS' fall production.
"I call it a classic Broadway show," Rieke said. "It was originally done in 1937 and won a Pulitzer."
The set depicts the house of Martin "Grandpa" Vanderhof, which is located near Columbia University in New York City. The play is set in 1937, with the costumes and hairstyles depicting the era.
Vanderhof lives in the house with a number of family members, including his daughters, sons-in-law and granddaughters. There are also a number of other characters that are either residents of the house or visitors.
"There's a Russian dance teacher, a grand duchess; there's De Pinna, who just showed up one day and stayed for eight years," Rieke said. "There's extended family around them, too. There's the servant, and her friend - they're treated more like family. It's not your normal family."
The entire family enjoys a somewhat isolated lifestyle. Examples of some of the things that go on in the house include one of Vanderhof's son-in-laws, Paul, manufacturing fireworks in the basement, and one of Vanderhof's two granddaughters, Essie, intently pursuing dance instruction, despite the fact that she is a terrible dancer.
"The head of the family, Grandpa - at one point he just decided he didn't want to be in business anymore - what was the point?," Rieke said. "As he says, 'Why do six hours of stuff I don't want to do to do one hour of stuff I want to do?' He's found a way to make it work and enjoy life, and that philosophy has spread to his daughters, their husbands and people who just show up at the door."
The plot is centered around the love story of Alice - Vanderhof's other granddaughter - and Tony Kirby. Alice is the lone member of the household that has managed to break free from the isolation of the rest of the household, where she met Tony, who grew up in very different circumstances.
After realizing that she and Tony are both very much in love with each other, Alice decides that she will have to undergo the embarrassing task of introducing Tony - and Tony's parents - to her family. When the two very different families meet, it is, needless to say, that it is a very interesting affair.
Adding to the drama is the persecution of Vanderhof by authorities due to years of tax evasion, and other legal matters that are brought to light during the play.
Although the play on the surface is a comedy, Rieke mentioned that many other themes come into play.
"It's about accepting people the way they are, in a lot of ways, and accepting yourself, too," Rieke said. "Not trying to live up to somebody else's image of what's normal or the right thing to do. It's very funny, but very touching, too. Those are all part of why I chose it, because for the kids it offers them a chance to really do some acting. There's more to it than just a comedy."
The cast is filled with veteran performers, with the majority of the 19 cast members coming from the junior and senior classes.
"They're a very talented group of kids," Rieke said. "They're very determined - that was one of the reasons I knew they could handle this kind of show."
The play will open on Friday, Nov. 16 with a 7 p.m. performance. The two other performances will be Saturday, Nov. 17 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 18 at 2 p.m. at the DAC, 15 N. State.
Tickets will be $7 for adults and $5 for students and seniors, with all tickets to be sold at the door.
If you plan on going, be prepared for plenty of laughs, but also don't be surprised if you find some tears welling up in your eyes.
"Everybody always talks about how funny it is, and it is a funny show, but it has some really touching moments, too," Rieke said. "I think that gets forgotten a lot of times."

Now The Fringe is teaming with its Houston counterpart to present what's been dubbed Interstate Fringe!, a concentrated festival comprising four works set to run March 18-19 at Michalopoulos Studio, 527 Elysian Fields. Two of the shows originate from New Orleans, with two others coming from Houston -- where all four productions will encore the following weekend, March 25-26.
The New Orleans Fringe-sourced pieces are "Our Man" (conceived by Goat in the Road Productions) and "The Divine Feminine" (from Chard Gonzalez Dance Theatre). Houston Fringe's contributions are "Yes, Cassandra" and "Rogue Improv." All four shows will be performed each evening, beginning at 8 p.m.
"Our Man" is described as a piece "where two men in a small glass box narrate the life and accomplishments of one of the nation's most controversial leaders, 'The Gipper.' Through clever and comical half truths and brutal mudslinging tactics, the two find themselves arguing their way from small towns in the Midwest to Europe on the front lines of WWII, all the while deciding whether or not to elect their only possession, an old wooden tennis racquet, their President."
In "The Divine Feminine," we witness "conflict and mayhem due to the seduction of a goddess, the wrath of a bitter queen, the marvel of a heroine plus other divine women and their boy-toys."
Not to be outdone, Houston's "Yes, Cassandra" re-imagines Aeschylus' Trojan War from the perspective of Cassandra.
"She sees her family slain and the Trojan War lost. She sees King Agamemnon take her as a concubine and sail back to his homeland. She sees the brutal murder of Agamemnon and herself at the hand of his wife, Clytemnestra. She sees, she knows, she falls into madness while trying to come to terms with her own mortality. If you could know the exact moment and cause of your death, would you want to?"
Finally, "Rogue Improv" will invite "spontaneous suggestions from the audience, using them as the inspiration to create a completely improvised, unscripted, 30-minute continuous theatrical universe…"
Tickets are $15. You can buy them at the door, or in advance online at New Orleans Fringe.
