OTTAWA — Mark Warawa's name would never have popped up a month ago in a discussion over which backbench MP was most likely to lead a rebellion against Prime Minister Stephen Harper's steely grip on caucus.
The affable former insurance executive and devout Mennonite from Langley doesn't have a record of making controversial comments or criticizing his Conservative party or its leader in almost a decade in Parliament.
But Warawa has suddenly become the centre of a political storm as he fights to have his motion, which calls on MPs to condemn so-called sex-selection abortion, go to a vote in the House of Commons.
His campaign has gone beyond abortion, with many MPs and commentators portraying it as a freedom-of-speech issue
"Mark's a decent man, he's a principled guy and he wants to do what he thinks is right," said one of his constituents and a former caucus colleague, B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins.
"But no, I certainly didn't see this in him," added Cummins, who was an outspoken party maverick during his own career in Parliament from 1993 to 2011. "He's pretty much a team player and was sort of focused on his political career (so) it's a little bit surprising."
That view of Warawa, a former Abbotsford city councillor first elected to the House of Commons in 2004, was seconded by veteran B.C. journalist Frank Bucholtz.
"He's certainly an unlikely leader of a rebellion. He's no John Cummins, let's put it that way," the Langley Times editor said Thursday. He said Warawa is popular in the community.
Warawa, who turned down a Vancouver Sun request for an interview, suffered a setback Thursday when a parliamentary committee rejected his appeal to bring his motion to the Commons floor for a vote.
Warawa is waiting for the speaker to rule on his complaint that he should not have been barred by his party leadership last week from making a statement in the House.
"Each of us has that responsibility to represent our communities, the people who elected us. We need to have those rights ensured," Warawa told the Commons Tuesday.
Warawa left open the option Thursday of making a direct appeal to the House of Commons, which requires the support of five MPs from at least two recognized parties.
Warawa's support network, meanwhile, continues to grow.
Conservatives John Williamson, Stephen Woodworth and Kyle Seeback on Thursday made statements of support, joining two other Tories, Leon Benoit and Brent Rathgeber, who earlier this week also objected to the party's refusal to let him make a statement in Parliament.
All these Conservative MPs are from ridings east of the Rockies. None of 20 B.C. Tory MPs have publicly defended their colleague's position, though many hold similar social conservative views.
Warawa's battle began in September when he introduced his motion. He said was in response to a CBC investigative documentary showing that some couples were going to private ultrasound clinics in Canada and, if they learned their expected child was female, would terminate the pregnancy.
The motion wasn't welcomed by Harper, who has vowed that a Conservative government led by him will never enact abortion legislation.
A Warawa supporter and member of his church, the North Langley Community Church that is part of the Mennonite Brethren denomination, said Thursday he's "disappointed" that Harper wouldn't let the MP have the chance to speak out or have his motion put to a vote.
'I think he's taking a very courageous stand," Tim McCarthy said, comparing Warawa's position to that of English politician William Wilberforce, an evangelical Christian who battled slavery in the early 1800s.
While he has his doubts the anti-abortion movement is close to a breakthrough in Canada, which has been without a law on abortion since a 1988 Supreme Court of Canada ruling, he said Warawa's battle is worth fighting.
"Even if nothing were to change, my perspective is that we're not only accountable to history or even to constituents. We're accountable to God and to doing the right thing.
"Knowing where Mark stands on his faith, and I don't mean this in the abortion sense but in the integrity sense, if you are given these convictions you have to live with yourself and your relationship with God, according to the choices that you make."

Some simple modifications that are free or inexpensive will save time, energy and money in the long run.
As a general rule, expect winter commutes to take longer, from starting your car (or warming up your legs) to dealing with roadside debris that can slow you down.
Cars typically get lower gas mileage in the winter, partly because fuel that vaporizes quickly in warm weather is more sluggish in cold temperatures, says master mechanic and car broker Dave Meggitt of Meggitt Motors.
Bicycle commuters, who now can ride Denver Bcycle bikes year-round, face fewer modifications than automobile commuters, says Denver Bcycle interim executive director Nick Bohnenkamp.
One difference between Bcycles and other bicycles: Bcycles are commercial-grade, with a heavily-weighted headset, while the front wheel and headset of a typical commuter bicycle is quite light.
"The total weight of a Bcycle, including the front weight of the basket, is 50 pounds, which makes the bike more stable in winter riding conditions," he said.
Keep tires inflated. "A lot of people overlook this, and it really affects fuel efficiency, especially on cold mornings," says Meggitt.
Make sure your motor oil and air filter are clean and new. "Dirty oil and an old air filter make it hard for your car to start in below-zero weather," Meggitt says.
Check your antifreeze. If it's been in your car for more than three years, change it, Meggitt says.
Test your battery. " Napa Auto, Checker, Advance Auto Parts, all those places will do free battery checks, and free installation if you need a new battery," Meggitt says. "A battery lasts three or four years and then it's done. If my battery is four years old, I just replace it."
Check suspension. Bad struts or shock absorbers may cause your wheels to bounce so much that the car is airborne, Meggitt says. "Suspension problems are dangerous on ice, because instead of stopping smooth and straight, the car will shift and slide. If you hear rattling and undercarriage noise, then your suspension probably is going bad."
Check your belts. "A squealing fan belt is a loose fan belt, and needs to be replaced or tightened, because it will have an effect on the charging system," Meggitt says.
Carry a winter emergency kit that includes jumper cables, a couple of lighters, a couple of empty plastic jugs filled with sand or cat litter and a shovel. If you get stuck in your car, rip a hole in the seat and use the stuffing to start a fire, Meggitt suggested.
"When I skied in the backcountry, I had to dig myself out all the time," Meggitt says. "I've been stuck in a 4-wheel drive, and even in my Subaru, I once had to dig a couple hours but I got out. Having that sand available means that you can sprinkle some on the ground if your car get stuck in the snow, and it will take right off."
Use a headlight and a taillight during the day as well as after dark. It's even more important to be visible during a season when road conditions can distract drivers, says Keith Couture of Denver's Mindful Bike.
Replace your smooth tires with knobby ones. "You'll benefit from the traction," Couture says, but don't bother with expensive studded tires "since Denver's bipolar winters mean you'll be riding on bare pavement 60, 70 percent of the time."
Fenders: Invest in a pair. "It's going to keep you a little happier if you're not soaking in grit and mud," Couture says, "and on winter commutes, snow and mud gets thrown on the downtube and can really clog up your shifting cables and keep them from working smoothly. A fender prevents that."
Saddles: If there's a seam on your saddle, or your saddle is made of leather, cover it, "even with a plastic grocery bag," Couture says. "Bcycle seats are seamless so they won't soak up rain or melting snow," Bohnenkamp says.
Keep all moving parts clean and lubricated to prevent them from seizing. Couture recommends cleaning and lubing your bicycle weekly, "particularly if your drive train is audible, rattling and squeaking," he said. He recommends BoeShield T-9 over multi-purpose sprays like WD-40, which are effective de-greasers but dry without leaving a protective layer of wax or other lubricant.
Carry a spare tube if you usually rely on a patch kit. "You can put on a spare tube inside seven minutes, and with a patch kit, you have to wait for the glue to dry," Couture said.
Dress in layers. Wearing a single heavy coat means that you'll sweat , and when you stop moving, you'll chill quickly. Thin, moisture-wicking lawyers of polypropylene or wool, including a featherweight skullcap under your helmet, will keep you warmer and drier.
Wear wool or polypro gloves. "Hands are one of the first things that get cold when people ride in winter," Bohnenkamp said, but a driver's hands need to be warm, too.
Carry a lighter. "In any of my winter jackets, you'll find three or four lighters in my pockets, because I've had to stop in the backcountry so many times to make a fire to warm myself up," Meggitt says.

Five people can stand shoulder-to-shoulder and still allow another person, going in the opposite direction, to pass by. Stubby fire hydrants, sprouting from the concrete, are just tall enough to catch a gangly, tattooed teenager's shinbone when they aren't watching where they are going.
Five people can stand shoulder-to-shoulder and still allow another person, going in the opposite direction, to pass by. Stubby fire hydrants, sprouting from the concrete, are just tall enough to catch a gangly, tattooed teenager's shinbone when they aren't watching where they are going. Hundreds of discarded pieces of chewing gum look like an unfinished connect-the-dots puzzle. I know that sidewalk. It is next to a convenience store where gangly, tattooed teenagers work the strange and revealing midnight-to-eight shift. On their way to a nearby church, they pass over this sidewalk everyday for five years, as it is situated between the church and a favorite subway station. Although the nearest subway station is just across the street, that piece of sidewalk begins a meandering, scenic walk and not a walk of convenience. It is across the street from a familiar library and catty-corner to a local chocolate shop. Whether it is the saunter of a casual first date or the furious whiz of an anniversary dinner-tardy boyfriend, that sidewalk has seen it all. On crisp winter evenings intimate friends, some who have now passed away, walked over that piece of sidewalk engaged in boisterous argument. Maybe about the Red Sox, maybe about God, who can remember? Surely both topics were debated with equal passion. Two blocks away is a favorite record store and two blocks in the other direction a favorite sushi restaurant. Around the corner is a favorite sitting-and-watching spot and a much-too-expensive, but oft purchased, cup of coffee. Last week this nearly divine marker, this faithful slab of urban concrete was fouled by evil. I saw this sidewalk on national news speckled with blood and littered with debris. Twelve years ago I was cursing at my television because Jerry Springer was being interrupted by the news. How was I supposed to redeem myself after watching a very obese man jello-wrestle a midget without Jerry's "final thoughts?" It was the single largest terrorist attack on U.S. soil in history. I watched the second plane crash into the World Trade Center and then both buildings crumble to the ground. Like most Americans my heart went out to the families of the victims and the first responders although it felt very distant to me. In the ensuing years I was as transfixed on the tragedy and recovery as everyone else but I did not know that sidewalk. I'd never been to the World Trade Center and unfortunately still haven't. I don't know what the air smells like in a fog. I don't know what it sounds like at 2 a.m. on a Saturday. But that sidewalk, last week's sidewalk, I know very well. The emotional impact of the Marathon Bombing is still unfolding not just for the people of Boston but for all Americans. It is also still unfolding for me. A few people have casually broached the subject over the past week. Not in depth, but with a sympathetic look or reassuring shoulder squeeze and light conversation. Neither Kansans nor Bostonians want to discuss uncomfortable matters in polite company. In some strange way that has been comforting. A friend asked about the neighborhood where the bombs went off and I politely said I had been there, the moments and sense-memories too overwhelming to express in passing. It was as if it happened on my front porch. I prefer to think about good things, which, by consequence, means I often let myself forget about the evil and hate in the world. When things like this happen it is shocking and jarring. I reel back, aghast with amazement every time, almost as if it were the first time. The memorials, the thoughts and prayers of people across the world have touched me. All of The Hub ex-patriots appreciate the outpouring of support. We all feel for the people directly impacted by the bombing and the community of Watertown held hostage by a terrorist on the run. I cried when the local radio station played "Sweet Caroline," the unofficial anthem of Red Sox Nation, and "Dirty Water," the Standells' snark-ode to our murky Charles River, back-to-back. I honked my horn and slammed my steering wheel when they caught the second bombing suspect. I think the lady driving in front of me nearly had a heart attack. I think all of us are trying to find our way amidst the darkness, looking for something good buried beneath all this terrible mayhem. "If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?" - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago.

While her legendary track star brother was warming up for the Olympic Games in London, Violah Lagat was showing off some speed of her own last Saturday in Gadsden County.
Lagat, a track star herself at Florida State University and former All American at Central Arizona, crushed the competition at the third annual Run with the Moose 5K race at Quincy, She completed the hilly course in 18:45, nearly two minutes faster than her nearest competitor.
According to FSU sports, Lagat can compete at a high level in any race from 800 to 5,000 (5K) meters. She comes from the legendary Kenyan running family, which includes her Olympian brother Bernard Lagat.
According to USA Track and Field, Bernard Lagat has won Olympic medals for both the U.S.A. and Kenya. He currently holds seven mid-distance U.S. track records and will be competing for the U.S. in the 5,000-meter race on Aug. 8.
Now a senior at FSU, Violah Lagat, 23, is majoring in nursing and sociology and hopes to have a professional track and field career. She is expected to be on the Seminoles cross county team when the season starts in September. For 2011-2012, the FSU women's track and field program was ranked number four in the nation.
In the Run with the Moose, Violah Lagat finished ahead of another Seminole runner, Carly Thomas, who came in second at 20:50. Duane Evans of Crawfordville was third.
The Quincy Loyal Order of Moose No. 2672sponsored the event, which attracted 52 participants. It included a one-mile fun run for local Special Olympians and all proceeds from the race benefit Special Olympics.
Participation was down about half from last year's event when the combination of heat and tough hills surprised many runners. "We didn't raise as much as last year (it was a stellar crowd last year), but we did raise $300," said Dawn Mackland, one of Moose volunteers.
"We can't do anything about the hills, said James Tarpein Sr. who served as the starter and master of ceremony. He added that the lodge was considering looking at other locations for the course.

What: Boulder County commissioners hold a public hearing on a proposed Environmental Sustainability Plan.
When: 11 a.m. Thursday
Where: Boulder County Courthouse's third-floor hearing room, 1325 Pearl St., Boulder.
Further information: Following the hearing, the Board of County Commissioners may vote to adopt the 110-page plan, which is available online at http://tinyurl.com/bsnex6h. People can also email comments about the plan to firstname.lastname@example.com
BOULDER -- Boulder County is seeking public comment about a document proposing a path for protecting and conserving natural resources, reducing waste and pollution, and promoting awareness of threats to the environment.
The Board of County Commissioners has scheduled a Thursday morning public hearing on the draft Environmental Sustainability Plan, a document that suggests policies, priorities and timetables for achieving sustainability in county government's own operations and emphasizing that concept in the services and programs it provides Boulder County residents, businesses and communities.
For the purposes of their proposed plan, "sustainability" is defined as "the use, development and protection of resources in a way that enables Boulder County residents to meet their needs and maintain a high quality of life, without compromising the ability of future residents to do the same."
The 110-page document discusses such issues as air and water quality, the climate, ecological health, energy, local food production, health and wellness, transportation and zero waste.
In its air quality chapter, the plan sets a goal of ensuring "clean, clear and healthy air for current and future generations."
One of Boulder County's strategies for meeting that goal will be to "encourage the adoption of local, state and federal regulations and policies that reduce the impacts of oil and gas resource extraction." Another will be to "promote the use of sustainable and lower-emitting fuels and encourage the adoption of strategies that reduce vehicle miles traveled."
The plan also suggests strategies for protecting indoor air quality, as well, including one that would encourage radon mitigation systems in new homes and when existing homes are sold.
As is the case with many of the categories covered in the plan, the air quality chapter also encourages Boulder County residents to take action themselves to reduce air pollution.
The plan suggests that people "fuel your vehicles in the evening, so fume vapors can't 'cook' into ozone." It advises the use of electric-powered lawn mowers, or -- if people have gasoline-powered mowers -- that they mow in the evening. It calls on Boulder County residents to "choose low greenhouse-gas-emitting travel options rather than driving alone -- for example, walk bike, telecommute or ride the bus -- leave the car at home."
County sustainability coordinator Susie Strife said the plan is "intended as a blueprint" that sets goals and strategies for Boulder County -- along with other local governments, organizations, businesses and residents -- in "achieving our collective environmental sustainability goals."
She said staffers compiling the draft document hope that it'll become a launching point for a communitywide discussion of Boulder County's environmental priorities.
Strife said that at Thursday's hearing, commissioners and the county staff will be interested in hearing people's ideas about whether the sustainability plan's goals are strong enough for Boulder County, and whether there's anything missing from the draft plan.
"This is an active, living document," Strife said, one that's expected to be the basis of coming up with more specific time frames and funding sources for carrying out the plan's strategies.

quote:Originally posted by nuxfanI think I need to change my avatar to a .jpg that says "I am NOT Alex" Well honestly Beans, if you're going to go that far, why not just scrap divisions entirely - a single league of 30 teams. Every team plays 3 games against each opponent at least one in each other's home. Extend the season to 87 games by scrapping almost all the exhibition season.Or 2 conferences of 15 each. Each team plays each member of their conference 4 times, and each team in the other conference 2 times a year. Season is extended to 84 games, turn 2 pre-season games into real games and go.Its already getting difficult to fit enough teams into the "west" in order to make evenly balanced conferences work. And I like the idea of a full league, so that travel is evenly balanced between all teams.

Dealing with the back-from-vacation bluesBy MELANIE PLENDA
Special to the Sunday News March 09. 2013 12:37AM
Same garbage to the same Dumpster, every day.
Same highways with the same exits to work.
Cubicle didn't change overnight, so that's the same, too.
Today, every day ... forever.
But then something brightens those doldrums: vacation. It's saved for, pined after and taken - only to end too soon.
And then, there's that Dumpster. Again.
"There have been a few times over the years that I've had people come to me as a psychologist specifically because of feelings of depression which they attributed to coming home from a big vacation trip," said Carl Hindy, a clinical psychologist in Nashua. "Even more times, I've noticed that people arrive for counseling for other stated reasons, but I notice that there was an elaborate trip in their recent past."
Post-vacation blues is a real thing. For many people, that saved-for, pined-after vacation is the "trip of a lifetime." When it ends, not only is the vacation a thing of the past, but so are the anticipation, the research, the planning, the excitement and, ultimately, the distraction from stress that a vacation brings.
Meg Connor, senior staff therapist with MAPS Counseling Service in Keene, said one way to avoid that letdown is to keep expectations of a vacation in perspective before leaving and to have realistic expectations of the time away.
Further, said Hindy, try to make the vacation into the beginning of something. For instance, make an effort to get to know people on these trips, he said.
"Make some new friends, friendships that can continue even if as pen pals, Facebook or Skype friends," he said. "Then you are taking home more than snapshots."
Planning a vacation around a growing interest or hobby - such as golf in different locations, sailing in different places or photography in different environments - is a good idea as well, Hindy said.
"Then you are building something that's yours to continue, rather than expending or depleting something," he said.
Also, once on that vacation, said Susan Vonderheide, a clinical psychologist in Nashua, while it's OK to indulge, watch out for binge drinking.
"With some of these people," she said of people struggling with post-vacation blues, "they're actually having a mini withdrawal from alcohol."
Same goes for what vacationers eat, said Connor. If a trip involves large amounts of high-calorie foods and minimal exercise, it's important upon returning from vacation also to return to healthy habits as soon as possible.
"Giving attention to self-care is important," Connor said. "Mental health is dependent on physical health, and health means balance. So if you have a body that's happy because it's getting the right exercise and the right diet, it's less likely to crash, and your emotions are less likely to dip.
"If you want your mental health to be good, you have to take care of your body."
Another way to help beat the blues, Vonderheide said, is to have something to look forward to after the vacation - even if it's planning for small future getaways. But, she cautions, don't make it a project or task that can cause stress - planning a birthday party, for example.
MAPS Counseling's Connor suggested making sure to have at least one day upon returning to decompress before going back to work or school in order to ease back into a routine. And, she added, be sure to account for any time-zone changes or jet lag to allow the body to get back into its regular sleep pattern.
She also suggested writing in a journal about the vacation to help process the trip and post-vacation emotions the person may experience upon returning.
If the post-vacation blues is something that just can't be shaken, Hindy said, it might be necessary to look a little deeper.
Some people plan vacations to compensate for other forces that are weighing them down, he said. But if the vacation functions as a sort of life preserver - a device providing buoyancy to someone who might otherwise drown - the trip won't help for long.
"Maybe they may need to think about why such a trip is so important to them," Hindy said of such people, "and think about the best approach to these underlying reasons."

WASHINGTON (AP) — Renaissance artist Piero di Cosimo's career in painting will be examined next year in a major exhibition planned for Washington and Florence, Italy.
The National Gallery of Art will announce Friday that it's organizing the first major retrospective of Piero's paintings with the Uffizi museum in Florence. Curators say it will include 40 of the artist's most compelling works. Some are borrowed from churches in Italy, while others come from museum collections.
Piero began his career around 1480 and was a contemporary of Michelangelo, Leonardo and Botticelli. His art included altarpieces, portraits and scenes of mythological fantasies.
This is the first collaboration between the National Gallery and the Uffizi. The exhibit will be on view in Washington from February to May 2015 and in Florence from June 23 through September 2015.

You say: Rogers is a bunch of evil bastriches for moving more than half of the Jays remaining games to their just launched Sportsnet One service, denying the team's fans the opportunity to watch them at precisely the moment when interest in the team is blowing up. Money-grubbing iceholes!
We say: Save some of your consternation for your local TV service provider. By dropping all of your rage into Rogers' lap, you make it easier for them to bide their time and delay carrying the channel. And think about it this way: If your cable provider were to day "Fuck it. We're gonna drop A & E, so you'll have to find other ways to watch Intervention and Tanya Memme's spectacular rack on Sell This House", you wouldn't blame A & E for not getting carried, would you?
This is all part of a dance, and Bell and Shaw (who also own or are about to own CTV/TSN and Global respectively) would very much like to see the kids on Jarvis and Bloor twist in the wind for a while as payback for some prior tomfoolery.
Bottom line: Quietly seethe at Rogers for their timing, but call your cable provider like an angry Springer guest until they carry Sportsnet One if you want to see your Jays games anytime soon. Because the idea that the cableco's aren't going to move on this until hockey season is so depressing.
You say: Where the hell is J.P. Arencibia? And why isn't he playing everyday? He should just be playing in AAA as opposed to sitting on the bench!
We say: There's more to a catcher's development than getting reps and at bats. Spending time with the coaches, the pitching staff and the other catchers is an important aspect of JPA's initial stint in Toronto.
Yeah, his first game was pretty spectacular, and he's looked great throwing guys out on the basepaths. But we'd like to see him learn to put up as better target (which, as Drew pointed out, might not be his strongest suit.)
(Secondary thought here: Would it kill JPA to have a glove and chest protector that are different colours? Sometimes on screen, his black glove seems to get lost in his black chest protector. We're sure that the pitchers have a better view of it that we do, but still...would it kill him to grab a Lance Parrish signature mitt to give his boys a bright, unmissable target?)
Also, JPA's first magical game featured him swatting lots of first pitches into the heliosphere, but his subsequent games have seen him get jammed on those early pitches. Wouldn't hurt the kid to take a couple of pitches and work a count here or there.
And all of this is a lot more convincing after watching José Molina go 4-for-4 last night. Oh, you didn't see that? Oops. Sorry.
You say: It's a TRAVESTY and a DISGRACE that Travis Snider isn't playing every day. Future of the franchise! Pasty White Hope! Rosy-Cheeked Phenom! Let him play! Let him play! Let him play! Let him play! Let him play!
We say: The Manager actually has a wealth of productive bats from which he can construct his lineup, which means that Snider and FredDotLew are going to end up sitting maybe more than you feel is necessary. But we actually think that The Manager has done a good job of making sure that everyone gets ABs, and we'd tend to agree with his move to keep JoBau in right field rather than switching him to third and getting Edwin Encarnacion out of the lineup.
Oh, and BTW y'all: Since Snider's return on July 30, he's put up a .736 OPS in 48 plate appearances. EE? .809 OPS in 55 PAs. Just so you're not mistaken.
You say: The format of this blog post makes you think of Lisa Loeb, and that's not a good thing.
We say: Lisa Loeb is kinda hot. We're still not over her. She's so cute, prancing around coquettishly in that little dress. *Sigh*.

Woodyard is the league's only player with at least 100 tackles, five sacks and three interceptions. With a career-most 13 starts this season, Woodyard leads the Broncos with 110 tackles, is third in sacks with 5.5 and is tied for the team lead in interceptions with three.Since the sack became an official league statistic in 1982, players had finished a season with 100 tackles, five sacks and three interceptions only 11 times.
Woodyard is the 12th, and the first since Brian Urlacher in 2007.
"It's been a lot of fun," Woodyard said. "You try to go out there and not worry about stats and go out and just have fun competing with my teammates."
Woodyard, who has been a team captain for four of his five seasons with the team, always has been a front-line special teams player, but this season has been his biggest opportunity to play on defense. Asked about any differences in his game now than in previous years, Woodyard said: "Something I really had to accept was what if I don't get a chance," Woodyard said. "That I don't complain, don't pout, come to work every day, being a true leader. A true leader doesn't worry about what goes on. They just come to work and be a good teammate. And I wanted to be a good teammate no matter what happened and just keep working hard.
As far as being passed over for the Pro Bowl snub, Woodyard said: "I can't worry about that. Fans were upset enough for me.
"I want to win a Super Bowl. That's the only thing we care about, is winning the Super Bowl. We don't worry about too many accolades for ourselves."
McGahee on schedule
Broncos coach John Fox said Friday that running back Willis McGahee is on track to return to the field during the postseason.
The Broncos placed McGahee on injured reserve last month, but designated him for return. Their hope has been McGahee would be ready to play if the Broncos advance to the AFC championship game and beyond.
Asked how McGahee was progressing, Fox said: "Good. He's rehabbing and all indications are it's on schedule."
