MEIGS COUNTY — Meigs County voters
backed Republican candidates for President, United States Senate and United States House of Representatives in Tuesday’s General Election — and
it appears the rest of the state agreed.
Donald J. Trump received more than 72 percent
of the vote in Meigs County and has been called
the winner of the key state of Ohio as of 10:50 p.m.
on Tuesday evening.
Trump received 6,869 votes in Meigs County to
2,157 votes for Hillary Clinton.
While he has won Ohio, it is unknown as of
Sentinel press time if Trump or Clinton will be the
next President of the United States.
Meigs County voters also backed incumbent Rob
Portman (R) for the United States Senate seat.
Portman received 6,107 votes to 2,580 for formerGovernor Ted Strickland. Portman was called the
winner by the Associated Press early on Tuesday

The Meigs County Courthouse had some four-legged visitors on Tuesday morning as several employees participated in Bring Your Pet
to Work Day. The event was held to raise money for the Meigs County Canine Rescue and Adoption Center. The idea for the event came
from Auditor’s office employee Mary Ann Parsons, who brought her dog, Bella, to participate. Pictured (top right photo) are participants
April Burnem, holding Parsons’ dog Bella, Betsy Entsminger holding her dog Bella, Shannon Spaun with Rocky (who was a rescue dog

The Pomeroy location of the Meigs County Library now features a photograph of the Pomeroy riverfront which was taken by local
photographer Gary Coleman. Coleman, who is known around the area for his photography, was approached by the library after it was
learned that the sound baffles being installed in the front meeting room area could be customized, according to library director Kristi
Eblin,. On Monday, Coleman added his signature to the photograph.

MIDDLEPORT — The mob will
be making an appearance in Middleport on Thursday — the Cash Mob,
to be exact.
After hosting its ﬁrst Cash Mob
event in August at Front Paige Outﬁtters, the Meigs County Chamber of
Commerce is taking its second Cash
Mob event to King’s Ace Hardware in
Middleport.

The Cash Mob event will be held
from 4-6:30 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 10.
A cash mob is a group of people
who assemble at a local business to
make purchases. According to the
Chamber, “The purpose of these
mobs is to support both the local businesses and the overall community.
They also serve a secondary purpose
in providing social opportunities.
They are a form of a ﬂash mob, and
are inspired by them.”
“It is a great opportunity to preview

a business’ selection while enjoying a
party-like atmosphere shopping,” stated the email announcing the event.
Mobbers are encouraged to spend
at least $10 at the business.
“If even half the community comes
out and spends a little bit of money,
it can have a huge impact on the business. Other than that, we hope everyone has fun,” stated the release.
King’s will have special $10 deals,
as well as other promotions throughout the evening.

Rio professor awarded at conference
Staff Report

RIO GRANDE – University of Rio Grande
Bunce School of Education Chair Diane
Downard was presented
the Regional Award
for the Outstanding
Middle Level Program
at the Ohio Mid-Level
Association (OMLA)
Conference in Cincinnati
recently.
Downard said she is
thankful for the award
and opportunities she
and her students have to
work with the organization.
“I was very excited to
learn I would be receiving this award,” Downard said. “This is really
an honor and a statement to the hard work
my students have put
in this year to promote
middle-level education.”
The OMLA is an
organization dedicated
to promoting the needs
of young adolescent
students and their educators. OMLA Southeast
Regional Representative
Kristen Lavric said Downard was chosen for the
award for her dedication
to preparing her students to teach middlelevel education.
“We have worked with
Diane in the Southeastern Region on several
occasions, and she is so
willing to make everyone’s schedules work to
accomplish our goals,”
Lavric said. “This is our

way of thanking her for
her efforts to prepare
middle-level preservice
teachers.”
Lavric said the award
recognizes educators
in the Southeast region
of Ohio for their work
promoting positive
middle-level education
programs.
“Diane is so excited
about what she’s doing
and inspiring a new
generation of educators,”
Lavric said. “Students
between the ages of
10 and 15 have a very
unique set of needs so
their educators need
a solid foundation to
be successful in their
careers. Diane has gone

above and beyond to provide her students with
this foundation so they
will be able to provide
their future students
with a quality education.”
Downard said she and
her students strive to
promote the middle-level
philosophies to educators in the community to
meet the needs of these
unique students.
“Students in this
age bracket are going
through a lot of life
changes and it’s different
for each child,” Downard
said. “They need teachers who can provide a
positive learning atmosphere and help them

keep up their academic
success. My students
understand this need
and are so passionate
about working with the
OMLA to gain further
training and knowledge
on how to prepare for
their careers.”
Downard has been
teaching at Rio since
2002 and has taught in
public schools for over
20 years. Her experiences working with children
ranged from students
with severe cognitive
and learning disabilities;
K-4, seventh grade, and
middle school general
education; and seventh
and eighth grade art and
language arts.

THEIR VIEW

Election Day also
means Obama
likely to skate free
of misbehavior
By Andrew Malcolm
Contributing Columnist

These are tense, worrisome times for Americans.
Elections are supposed to be divisive, through the votecounting anyway.
But this cast of candidate characters with its inappropriate behaviors, remarks and records, coming after
eight years of divisive presidential “leadership,” has made
things even worse.
And while much attention is naturally focused this
week on who won and lost, a far more signiﬁcant result
for the nation also needs resolution: What are the consequences, if any, for these recent years chock-full of so
much misbehavior, both public and private?
Do those people widely seen as cheating, lying and
abusing a sacred public trust pay any public price for
their moral malfeasance? Or do they skate free of penalty
to enjoy the perceived rewards of power?
We are, of course, talking mostly about the Obama
administration and Clinton crowd. Let’s look at a few
examples:
Remember Fast and Furious, the cockamamie federal
gun-running scheme that ended up arming Mexican drug
cartels? A Border Patrol agent died. But then Attorney
General Eric Holder stonewalled Congress. He’s now
back making big bucks at a law ﬁrm. No consequences.
Solyndra, the solar panel company controlled by an
Obama campaign bundler, got a half-billion in guaranteed loans. It went under with $545 million of taxpayer
money. Poof. No consequences.
The IRS routinely harassed and stalled conservative
groups seeking legitimate tax-exempt status before and
during the 2012 election campaign. President Barack
Obama professed outrage. The FBI said it could ﬁnd
nothing to prosecute. No consequences.
The Department of Veterans Affairs falsiﬁed records
to hide outrageous service delays for vets, some of whom
died while awaiting treatment. A few ofﬁcials were
shufﬂed. Congress threw $1 billion more at the agency.
No consequences.
At Hillary Clinton’s urging, Obama enthusiastically
backed allied attacks to topple Libyan dictator Moammar
Gadhaﬁ. A mob tore him apart. Clinton celebrated. But
no one had planned for the resulting power vacuum. So
terrorists now run rampant there. No consequences.
Similar “planning” in Iraq allowed ISIS to coalesce and
created a years-long reign of terror. Obama’s returned
5,400 U.S. troops. No consequences.
In Libya, Ambassador Chris Stevens pleaded often
with Secretary of State Clinton for additional security.
Not only was it denied, the existing security detail was
pulled. On Sept. 11, 2012, a well-armed mob killed Stevens and three other Americans. No rescue plans were
ready. None initiated.
Obama was AWOL that night. Clinton devised an antiMuslim-video cover story.
A standard review board of Washington cronies, using
documents provided by Clinton’s staff and no interview
of Clinton, could ﬁnd no one to blame. Four betrayals.
Four deaths. No consequences.
Two State employees, however, were disciplined for
cooperating with congressional investigators.
Then came Gen. David Petraeus, the lauded senior
commander in Afghanistan and Iraq and CIA director.
He shared classiﬁed material with his biographer, who
had security clearance. He was convicted of mishandling
national security info, got a $100,000 ﬁne plus two years’
probation.
You may have heard something about Clinton’s private
unsecured email server these last 20 months. Virtually
every claim of innocent intention she made at the scandal’s start has proved false.
The FBI was investigating the server — until the latest announcement Sunday that it’s not — and possible
conﬂict of interest with the Clinton Foundation, which
raked in millions from foreign sources during her State
Department tenure, contrary to promises. And Bill
Clinton’s speaking fees coincidentally soared. So far, no
consequences.
Obama claims no knowledge of the unauthorized server. But we now know he exchanged numerous classiﬁed
emails with Clinton there, using an alias. A McClatchyMarist Poll ﬁnds a majority believe she did something
illegal.
Trust within democracy is very fragile. Ours is supposed to be a society of laws applied reasonably, equitably. Hence, the blindfold on Lady Justice with the scales.
Polls ﬁnd that starting with the 2008 recession, Americans’ trust in most of their most important institutions
has fallen to historic lows. Gallup found trust in 14 key
institutions averages only 32 percent now, down from the
mid-40s earlier this century.
Trust in news media, Congress, banks and organized
religion tumbled the most. Even trust in the Supreme
Court, public schools, police and criminal justice slid.
The all-volunteer military stayed steady at the highest
trust rating, at 73 percent.
Barely half of his countrymen approve of Obama’s job
and nearly 2 of 3 say the country is on the wrong track.
Dissatisfaction with “the way things are going” stood at
70 percent last month.
All this, sadly, prepares the national soil for enduring
suspicions and distrust that continue to corrode the
national spirit, even if these elections aren’t rigged.

12:5-6 says, “And ye have

you as unto children, My
son, despise not thou the
chastening of the Lord,
nor faint when thou art
rebuked of him: For whom
the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every
son whom he receiveth.”
A good way to understand those verses is this:
if you are a true child
of God, God will make
any sin in your life very
“distasteful” by the consequences he brings for
it. God will never simply
allow a true child of his to
do wrong over and again
without repercussions.
No chastening, no child
of God. This is one of the
surest proofs of salvation;
when a child of God does
wrong, God chastens him,
and he knows why the
chastening is taking place.
Pardon me now, please,

THEIR VIEW

There’s a strong case to be made for Electoral College
By Joseph E. Uscinski
Contributing Columnist

Despite the fact that we
are going to the polls to cast
our ballots, we won’t actually
be voting for Hillary Clinton,
Donald Trump, Gary Johnson or Jill Stein.
We instead will be voting for “electors” who will
cast the actual ballots for
president. Those ballots
won’t even be counted until
December. That is when the
“real” presidential election
takes place.
The presidential election
is actually decided by 538
electors who make up the
Electoral College, a curious
artifact of our Constitution.
Some people want to amend
the Constitution to eliminate
the Electoral College; they
instead want the presidency
to be decided by a straight-up
popular vote. Their argument is that a popular vote
by its very nature ensures
that the candidate with the
most votes wins. There have
been instances in history
where a president ascends to
the White House by winning
the Electoral College vote,
but not the popular vote
(George W. Bush won this
way in 2000).

Also, it is argued, the Electoral College creates many
areas of the country that are
non-competitive, and therefore the votes of people in
the minority don’t count for
much (Republican voters in
deep-blue Massachusetts, for
example, have little reason to
cast a ballot for president).
Despite these arguments
— which are no doubt
important — I predict that
many Americans will wake
up Wednesday morning and
be grateful for it.
Here’s why:
First, the Electoral College
makes election rigging difﬁcult. If the nation elected its
president with just a popular
vote, rigging could take place
anywhere in the country.
And because of that, schemes
would be hard to detect.
Dividing our national presidential election into 50 smaller elections frustrates the
schemes of would-be cheaters
and lets ofﬁcials know where
to concentrate their efforts
on ensuring accuracy.
Second, the Electoral
College provides decisive
victories. There will be about
130 million votes cast this
year. Numbers this large are
hard for most people to comprehend, and the differences

between the two major candidates can seem negligible.
In 2012, the difference
between President Barack
Obama’s and Mitt Romney’s
vote totals was only about 5
million votes out of 127 million cast. Some elections are
much closer, and such small
margins can seem unclear
and inconclusive. The Electoral College tends to make
victories appear clear and
margins distinct. In 2012,
despite the 4 percent margin in the popular vote, the
Electoral College vote was a
decisive 332 to 206.
Such numbers are easy to
interpret and provide newly
elected presidents with the
legitimacy they need to
govern. This year, Donald
Trump has ﬂirted with the
idea of not conceding the
election to Hillary Clinton,
because according to him,
“It’s rigged.” If the current
opinion polls stay true, Hillary Clinton likely will win.
Her victory in the Electoral
College, which is currently
expected to be large, will
make any claims of “rigging”
look ludicrous.
Third, the Electoral College isolates problems — if
there are any — to speciﬁc
states. If there is to be a

question about the sanctity
or accuracy of the vote
count, the Electoral College
effectively isolates those
questions to speciﬁc states.
In 2000, when there were
questions about the outcome,
the subsequent litigation
and recount were isolated to
a few counties in one state
(Florida).
In 2004, there were
questions about the close
outcome, but again, those
questions were isolated to
Ohio. Imagine if the recount
in 2000 were to take place in
every precinct in every state
across the country. There
would be widespread and
endless challenges, litigation
and chaos. The Electoral College prevents this.
American elections are
messy business. There are
primaries, caucuses, general
elections and electors. There
is nothing simple about our
system. But the Electoral
College, despite its faults,
makes the business of electing a president much less
messy.
And it just may be a lifesaver this year.

Meyer’s
challenge
focuses
Buckeyes

Highlanders outlast OVCS in 5

By Jim Naveau
jnaveau@civitasmedia.com

COLUMBUS — Ohio State’s football goals are about mountain tops,
not plateaus.
So when Urban Meyer thought he
saw his team’s performance — and
in some cases its efforts — ﬂattening
out, he took action.
After losing at Penn State on Oct.
22, Meyer told the Buckeyes he
thought some of them might need
to examine whether they were giving maximum effort and attention to
their responsibilities.
“I’ve done this a long time, I’ve
coached young teams. We were
climbing very well early in the season and we plateaued. You’ve got to
somehow jump start it and get the
climb started again in development
of the players and development of
the team,” Meyer said. “We had
obviously plateaued. We do team
meetings and power of the unit
meetings and have those conversations. And if you’ve done everything
you possibly can do to help your
team win, carry on, move forward. If
not, get it ﬁxed.
“When your team struggles, it’s
because there’s a unit, a player, a
coach not upholding his responsibilities,” he said.
Ohio State defeated Northwestern
24-20 in its ﬁrst game after Meyer’s
exhortation, then exploded for a
62-3 win over Nebraska in a battle of
Top Ten teams last Saturday night in
Ohio Stadium.
A trip to Maryland (5-4, 2-4 Big
Ten) is the next game for the Buckeyes (8-1, 5-1 Big Ten).
Center Pat Elﬂein said OSU’s
coaches and captains talked to the
team about paying attention to detail
after the Penn State loss.
“We talked about getting back on
track in our practice habits and our
preparation habits. I felt we were on
track but there were just little things
we weren’t hitting,” Elﬂein said.
“I feel like the way we responded
after the Penn State loss and a close
game against Northwestern with a
big win against Nebraska really tells
what kind of team we are and what
kind of coaches we have.
“Coach Meyer was saying, ‘Are
you doing everything you possibly
can to help this team win a game?’
He was speaking to the whole team.

Lady Defenders fall to Mars Hill in OCSAA final
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

CIRCLEVILLE, Ohio
— They didn’t reach their
ultimate goal, but it did
take a state champion ﬁve
grueling games to prevent
the Lady Defenders from
getting there.
There were 26 ties and
30 lead changes leading
up to a pivotal ﬁfth game,
but Mars Hill Academy led
wire-to-wire in the ﬁnale
while claiming a 23-25,
25-18, 27-25, 12-25, 15-8
victory over Ohio Valley
Christian in the 2016 Ohio
Christian Schools Athletic
Association championship
volleyball match held Saturday at the Maxwell Center on the campus of Ohio
Christian University.
The Lady Defenders
(23-2) — champions of
the Southeast regional
— were tested early and
often by the Lady Highlanders (19-9), who made
the trek from Mason after
winning Southwest regional title.
There were seven ties
and eight lead changes in
the opening game alone,
and both squads led by at
least two points.
OVCS secured its largest lead of Game 1 with
an 18-12 edge, but Mars
Hill responded with seven
straight points to take its
ﬁnal advantage at 19-18.
The Lady Defenders
answered with three consecutive points, but MHA
rallied to knot things up at
23-all. Ohio Valley Christian won the ﬁnal two
points to take a 1-0 match
advantage.
Mars Hill never trailed
in Game 2 after breaking
away from ties at one and
again at eight. The Lady
Highlanders led by eight
points on four different
occasions before tying the
match at one apiece with
the seven-point win.
The gem of the match
came in Game 3 as both
teams held leads at least
seven different times
throughout the course of
its completion. Overall,
there were 16 ties and 17
lead changes in the middle
game alone — and neither
squad led by more than
three points.
After trailing 15-12,

OVCS responded with
an 11-7 surge that led to
its ﬁnal lead of Game 3
at 23-22. There were ties
at 23-, 24- and 25-all, but
Mars Hill came up with
the ﬁnal two points while
securing a 2-1 match
advantage.
The Lady Defenders,
however, rebounded nicely
as they never trailed in
Game 4. After breaking a
three-all tie for serve, Cori
Hutchison recorded 15
consecutive service points
that gave OVCS its largest lead of the evening at
19-3.
The Lady Highlanders
never came closer than a
dozen points the rest of
the way as the Ohio Valley
Christian tied the match
at two with the 13-point
outcome.
In the race-to-15 ﬁnale,
MHA scored the ﬁrst six
points and led by at least
four points the rest of the
way — allowing the Lady
Highlanders to claim the
2016 state title with the
seven-point win.
In the ﬁve games played,
Mars Hill managed to outscore the Lady Defenders
by a single point with a
102-101 overall margin.
It wasn’t the ﬁnal outcome that OVCS ﬁrst-year
coach Heather Priddy
had hoped for, but she
was quick to note that
her troops did everything
they had to do to win a
state title. Given the competitiveness of the match,
it was kind of hard to be
disappointed with a silver
medal.
“Our ultimate goal was
to win state this year, and
we came up just a little
short of getting there.
Then again, we did everything we had to do to get
ourselves in a position
where we were playing for
a state title. Losing in ﬁve
games in the state ﬁnal
does not take away from
anything that we accomplished this year,” Priddy
said. “I’m really proud of
what these nine girls have
given to make this year so
special, especially being
my ﬁrst year with the program.
“We all put in the work
to do everything that we
could to win a state title
and it just didn’t work out

for us in the end, but it
wasn’t because of lack of
effort. We gave our best
and there is no shame in
being a state runner-up.
They will always be winners in my book.”
With two juniors, three
sophomores and two freshmen set to return for the
2017 campaign, next fall
could be just as memorable for the Lady Defenders. But, in losing seniors
Katie Bradley and Rachel
Sargent, Priddy also
admits that next year will
take even more hard work
to get back to this point.
“This is a good group
of girls and a lot of them
should be back for hopefully another run next
year, but those two seniors
… I just can’t say enough
about them,” Priddy said.
“Katie and Rachel have
been great team leaders
that have led by example.
They’ve shown the younger girls what it takes to be
successful and how hard
work can get you places.
“The younger girls will
have some big shoes to
ﬁll next year in replacing
those two, but I also know

the returnees will be up
for the challenge of building on what we’ve accomplished this season.”
Hutchison led the OVCS
service attack with 22
points, followed by Emily
Childers with nine points
and Bradley with eight
points. Sargent and Marcie Kessinger were next
with four points apiece,
while Katie Westfall
chipped in three points.
Sargent led the net
attack with 13 kills and
eight blocks, followed by
Bradley with 10 kills and
Westfall with eight kills.
Hutchison also had a block
in the setback.
Mackenzie Ricketts
led MHA with 15 service
points, followed by Holly
Edwards with 11 points
and Sarah Cotterman with
nine points. Tessa DeBra
and Anna Edwards also
chipped in six and ﬁve
points, respectively.
Lizzie Pereira and Annie
Lockett added four points
and one point for the victors.

won six of the last nine
races at Phoenix, ﬁnished
second in two of his
losses and is guaranteed
to show up this weekend
with a car capable of
demoralizing the ﬁeld.
Assuming it will take
nothing short of a freak
incident to keep Harvick
out of victory lane, there’s
essentially only one spot
in the ﬁnale up for grabs
Sunday.
Problem is, there are
ﬁve drivers jockeying for
that last spot.
And only two points
separate three of those
drivers in the standings.
To say there will be
some brokenhearted
teams on Sunday is an
understatement. This
year’s version of the
Chase has been anticlimactic, sometimes even
boring, but this bottleneck in the standings is
something to behold.
Reigning series champion Kyle Busch and Joey
Logano are tied in the
standings. Busch teammate Matt Kenseth is
just one point back, and

Nov. 20 at HomesteadMiami Speedway if
Harvick wins, and the
chances of Joe Gibbs
Racing getting multiple
cars into the championship took a hit on Sunday.
The team dominated the
regular season and had 50
percent of the drivers in
this round of eight.
Once a threat to get all
four cars into the ﬁnale,
JGR is only guaranteed
to be represented by Carl
Edwards, who used a fast
pit stop to win a rainshortened race Sunday
night at Texas. It was the
least optimal outcome for
JGR in terms of getting
multiple cars into the
ﬁnale.
Edwards, you see, was
last in the playoff standings and that miracle win
gave him an automatic
berth. Although the rules
show two spots still
remaining and three JGR
drivers hovering at the
top of the standings, the
threat of a Harvick win at
Phoenix has burst JGR’s
hopes.
So here’s the situation:
HARVICK FOR THE

winner at Phoenix and
has absolutely owned the
place since the track was

Martinsville. Best case
scenario is that the team

Hamlin will likely all be
racing for themselves on
Sunday and teamwork
will be an afterthought.

JGR doesn’t get even one
more car into the ﬁnale
because anything can
happen on Sunday.
LOGANO: He won

at Talladega in the last
round to stave off elimination, and he doesn’t
need to win at Phoenix
to make it to Homestead.
He’s essentially racing
the Gibbs cars and trying
to ﬁnish higher than the
three Toyotas so he can
snatch a spot on points.
It’ll be a tough battle,
but Logano likes sticking
it to the team that let him
go three years ago.
KURT BUSCH: He’s an
afterthought right now
after iffy performances

in the last two races have
him ranked last in the
standings. He most certainly has to win at Phoenix to advance, and it’s
a good track for Busch.
He has four consecutive
top-10 ﬁnishes at Phoenix and could pull off a
miracle.
Should he get the
win, it will come at the
expense of Stewart-Haas
Racing teammate Harvick. Based on the standings, they both can’t make
the ﬁnal four.

Winless Browns showing little sign of progress
CLEVELAND (AP)
— Although his team
has yet to win, Browns
coach Hue Jackson usually spends a moment
or two rattling off good
things he extracts from
a loss.
There’s always a silver
lining.
Not Monday. Not after
a 35-10 shellacking by
the Dallas Cowboys.
“There were no
positives to take out of
yesterday,” Jackson said
Monday on a conference
call. “Some we need to
learn from but really no
positives.”
The Browns (0-9) are
beyond bad, and they
appear to be getting
worse.
They’ve matched the
worst start in team history and will need a
win over Baltimore on
Thursday night to avoid
being the ﬁrst 0-10 club
in Cleveland’s 66-year
history.
The Browns have lost
12 in a row going back
to last season, 19 of 20
and they are 3-27 in
their past 30 games —
an unimaginable stretch
of sorry football.
If all that wasn’t tough
enough, Jackson, whose
young team has been
hit hard by injuries in
his ﬁrst season with
Cleveland, there’s little
time to prepare for the
Ravens.
No rest for the weary.
“I’ve never been 0-and-

9 before, so you better
believe it’s the toughest
challenge I’ve ever had,”
he said. “But I am excited about the challenge
and I truly believe that
we’ve got a tough road
ahead of us, but we’re
looking forward to it.
“I mean, this is the
Baltimore Ravens and
the Cleveland Browns,
Thursday night in Baltimore. So we’ve got
to get up and get these
guys ready to play, and
they will be.”
That didn’t seem to
be the case on Sunday
as the Cowboys (7-1)
outmanned the Browns
on both sides of the ball.
Dallas put together one
long touchdown drive
after another, running
up a 25-point lead after
three quarters before
pumping the brakes and
coasting to their seventh
straight win.
According to STATS,
the Browns became the
ﬁrst team in 52 years to
allow at least 25 points
in its ﬁrst nine games, a
stat which underscores
how poorly Cleveland’s
defense has played
under coordinator Ray
Horton.
In a league where
coordinators are routinely replaced during the
season, it would seem
Horton’s job would be
in jeopardy. The Browns
are ranked 31st in total
defense and 31st in
points allowed.

However, Jackson said
he’s sticking with Horton, who is in his second
stint running Cleveland’s
defense. To Jackson,
there are plenty of other
reasons why the Browns
are stumbling, and he
dismissed a question
asking if Horton was in
trouble.
“No, and I say that
with no question,” he
said. “I don’t want to
continue to get into
those kinds of things,
and that is probably
the last question I will
probably take on any of
our staff members about
their job because it is
not about that at all in
my opinion.”
It had to be troubling
for Jackson not to be
able to mention one
good thing about Sunday’s game. After all, the
Browns are nine games
in, and while there were
no illusions that this
would be a long turnaround, the team seems
be regressing.
“It is tough,” Jackson
said. “But at the same
time, there were no positives from yesterday, but
there have been some
positives so that has
been the foundation. We
take the positives that
we can ﬁnd and really
build on those and make
that something that we
rally to.
“Our players are
professionals, and they
understand when they

come in this building we
come in here to work
each and every day.”
Like Horton, rookie
quarterback Cody Kessler is safe for now.
Jackson isn’t going to
replace the third-round
pick, who returned to
the lineup after missing
one game with a concussion.
Kessler had some
decent moments against
the Cowboys, but
struggled to get the ball
downﬁeld and Jackson
conveyed some dissatisfaction in his performance.
Kessler ﬁnished 19 of
27 for 203 yards, but he
wasn’t able to sustain
drives in the second half
when Cleveland managed just 28 total yards.
“The biggest disappointment for me as the
leader of our offense is
we haven’t been able to
win, haven’t found a way
to score one more point
than the other team to
win a game,” Jackson
said.
“There’s some things
I’m sure individually
players have done well,
but as an offensive team,
it’s the quarterback’s job
to get the team to win.
I haven’t done a good
enough job of getting
that done for our guys.
Regardless of what stat
lines are, until we get
a win for this football
team, (stats) are not
going to matter.”

Steelers hoping to avoid self-inflicted wounds
PITTSBURGH (AP) —
Arthur Moats thought for a second and then basically pulled off
the impossible.
He managed to sound both
angry and optimistic at the same
time when asked how a team
expected to run away with the
AFC North ﬁnds itself mired at
an uninspired 4-4 at the midway
point following a lifeless loss in
Baltimore .
“Frustrated. (Ticked),” the
almost serially upbeat linebacker said. “Because we know
the talent we have, how good

we can be. But it’s just not been
consistent.”
Not even close.
The offense that wanted to
average 30 points a game is
averaging a full touchdown less
than that. The defense hoping
to take another step forward in
defensive coordinator Keith Butler’s second year instead ﬁnds
itself still looking for traction.
And the special teams? Check
Twitter, where GIF-able versions
of the blocked punt for a touchdown given up to the Ravens
and Chris Boswell’s comedic

attempt at a late onside kick
(think hackey-sack trick gone
awry) are there for your amusement.
“We’ve got to be better,” guard
Ramon Foster said. “Got to be
pros about it, that’s the best
word I can use for it.”
And perhaps the most polite.
A year ago, the Steelers began
the second half at a similar
crossroads then went 6-2 down
the stretch to make the playoffs
and give eventual Super Bowl
champion Denver a serious
scare in the divisional round.

Trades, signings could be slowed
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.
(AP) — With baseball’s
collective bargaining
agreement set to expire
Dec. 1, trade talk and
free-agent signings could
go slowly this offseason.
Major league general
managers gathered Monday for the start of their
annual meeting, in the
shadow of Camelback
Mountain, with guitar
music playing over
speakers and the smell
of mesquite in the hotel
courtyard.
There is an extra level
of uncertainty.
“We don’t know what
rules we’re playing yet
under,” Boston Red Sox
president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski
said Monday. “Knowing
some of that’s important,
because I don’t really
know what we’re dealing
with, and you wouldn’t
want something thrust
upon you that surprised
you — that there were
penalties attached that
you may not like or you
may like.”
Negotiators for owners
and players have been
meeting since spring
training, and talks were
set to continue this week
in Arizona, a person
familiar with the negotiations told The Associated
Press. The person spoke
on condition of anonymity because no public statements were authorized.
The sides have not
reached agreement on
many of the contentious
issues, including management’s desire for a draft
of international amateur
players, the threshold

where the luxury tax will
start next year or whether
there will be changes to
the draft-pick compensation system for premier
free agents. Baseball has
not had a work stoppage
since 1994-95, and Commissioner Rob Manfred
expresses conﬁdence
there will be an agreement by December.
“There’s certainly
uncertainty until they
do,” agent Scott Boras
said. “I’m sure they’re
going to want to know
the impact of it. Why
wouldn’t you?”
With teams operating
under the rules of the old
agreement, Toronto sluggers Jose Bautista and
Edwin Encarnacion, and
New York Mets outﬁelder
Yoenis Cespedes and second baseman Neil Walker
were among 10 free
agents to receive $17.2
million qualifying offers
Monday.
Chicago Cubs outﬁelder
Dexter Fowler, and Los
Angeles Dodgers closer
Kenley Jansen and third
baseman Justin Turner
also received the offers,
as did major league home
run leader Mark Trumbo
of Baltimore. Texas
outﬁelder Ian Desmond
and Philadelphia pitcher
Jeremy Hellickson got
qualifying offers, too.
Players have until next
Monday to accept. For
free agents who decline
and sign elsewhere, their
new team loses a high
selection in next June’s
amateur draft and their
old club gets an extra
pick after the ﬁrst round.
Only players who spent

the entire season with one
team are eligible for qualifying offers.
“The one aspect of
the collective bargaining
agreement that may not
be resolved any time soon
is this question of draftchoice compensation,
which is probably what
could change the market
one way or the other,”
Mets general manager
Sandy Alderson said. “I
don’t think the new rules
are going to get more
onerous to the players,
and it’s not clear whether
they’ll be less onerous for
clubs.”
None of the 34 qualifying offers was accepted
in the ﬁrst three years of
the current labor deal, but
among the 20 free agents
given offers last year
when the price was $15.8
million, Baltimore catcher
Matt Wieters, Houston
outﬁelder Colby Rasmus
and Dodgers left-hander
Brett Anderson accepted.
Approximately 160
major league free agents
can start discussing
money terms with all
teams on Tuesday. Yankees general manager
Brian Cashman said he
already reached out to the
agent for Aroldis Chapman, the hard-throwing
closer who helped the
Chicago Cubs win the
World Series after a July
trade from New York.
Cashman met Friday
with Yankees owner Hal
Steinbrenner to discuss
payroll budget.
“I’m not going to tell
what the number is, but
he gave me a number,”
Cashman said.

The luxury tax threshold was $189 million for
each of the last three
seasons, and a record
six teams are projected
to pay this year: the
Yankees ($27 million),
the Los Angeles Dodgers
($25 million), Boston
($6 million), Detroit
($3.9 million), the Cubs
($3.7 million) and San
Francisco ($3 million
each).
On the last day of the
so-called “quiet period”
before free-agent negotiations start, the Los
Angeles Angels exercised
a $7 million option on
third baseman Yunel
Escobar, Texas opted to
pay a $1.5 million buyout
to left-hander Derek Holland rather than exercise
an $11 million option,
and the Seattle Mariners
acquired Carlos Ruiz
from the Dodgers for lefthander Vidal Nuno and
exercised the catcher’s
$4.5 million option.
Left-hander Scott
Kazmir decided not to
opt out of the ﬁnal two
seasons of his contract
with the Dodgers, choosing to keep $32 million in
pay rather than become
a free agent after going
10-6 with a 4.56 ERA in
26 starts.
Right-hander James
Shields kept his contract
with the Chicago White
Sox rather than become a
free agent after tying for
the big league lead with

Cuban: Dispute
with ESPN rooted in
automated content
DALLAS (AP) — Dallas Mavericks owner
Mark Cuban says his decision to revoke the credentials of two ESPN writers who cover his team
was driven partly by concern that automated
game reports could eventually replace humangenerated content.
Cuban said Monday that he banned Marc Stein
and Tim MacMahon from Mavericks home games
to bring attention to the issue of companies using
automation in sports coverage.
The Associated Press, in a partnership with
Automated Insights, produces automated stories
on minor league baseball but does not use the
technology for most of its sports coverage. The
AP has at least one reporter at all games in the
four major professional sports and most major college football and basketball games.
“Maybe I will be wrong but I see a direct path
from the trends in coverage of games we are
seeing over the last couple years to the automation of reporting on games and the curation of
related content,” Cuban wrote in an email to the
AP. “This isn’t a knock on wire services or their
reporters. They are valued and valuable in sports
coverage.”
The billionaire who made his fortune through
internet technology said his action wasn’t prompted by ESPN’s plan to cover the Mavericks, which
he said he wasn’t changing.
Cuban said he responded after learning that
ESPN was relying on wire services for game
coverage on 19 NBA teams. Barry Bedlan, AP’s
sports product manager, said ESPN “has relied on
us for years.”
“Nothing has changed from our perspective and
there are no plans to change that,” Bedlan said.
Cuban said he was responding to what he
considers a disturbing trend of reporters being
replaced by machines.
“While it may seem counterintuitive to ban
someone from covering us as a way of stopping
automation, it really was my only option,” Cuban
said. “As is evident by the AP partnership with
Automated Insights, it’s not if but when.”
ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz declined to
comment on Cuban’s claims, referring to a statement Sunday when the network said it was “committed to thoroughly covering the Mavs and the
NBA.” A league spokesman didn’t return a message seeking comment Monday.

Schiano getting ‘master’s degree’ at OSU
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —
Greg Schiano’s ofﬁce is also set
up to be a meeting room for
Ohio State’s safeties. There are
a couple of tables, eight chairs,
and neatly set out at each spot
is a binder with the week’s
game plan.
Schiano is three quarters
of the way through his ﬁrst
college football season as an
assistant coach since 2000.
As defensive coordinator and
associate head coach of the
Buckeyes, Schiano is working
for — and learning from — his
good friend Urban Meyer, helping the Buckeyes contend for
the College Football Playoff and

adding to a resume that should
be good enough to get him
another head-coaching gig.
Maybe.
Schiano performed one of the
great makeovers in college football history during an 11-year
stint as Rutgers head coach.
He took the Scarlet Knights to
six bowl appearances after the
school previously had made
just one. But his two seasons
with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers produced only 11 victories and complaints from players that he was heavy-handed
and uncompromising as the
team ﬂailed. He was ﬁred after
the 2013 season. At a time

when many schools are looking for the next big thing and
coaches are deﬁned by last season, there are some obstacles
between Schiano and another
stint in the big ofﬁce.
“Any relationship is about
ﬁt. I’ve had opportunities that
just weren’t a ﬁt for me to be
a head coach. If and when the
ﬁt is right that’s when I’ll do
it and the same for them,”
Schiano said. “Some people are
looking for a younger guy that
doesn’t have a whole bunch of
experience, but is kind of catch
the rising star so to speak.
Where other people are looking for something else. It’s the

same for me. At this stage in
my career, I don’t need to be a
head coach. Would I like to be?
Yeah, I would like to be again
someday.”
Schiano and Meyer have
been friends for years. They
have traded ideas and dropped
in on each other’s programs.
When Chris Ash left Ohio
State to become head coach at
Rutgers, coincidentally, Meyer
talked Schiano into ﬁlling the
opening.
“I have kind of gone back for
a master’s degree in coaching
under someone I’m very close
with,” said Schiano, who drew
interest from both Southern

California and Miami last year.
Schiano, who was defensive
coordinator at Miami under
Butch Davis before he went to
Rutgers in 2001, said he understood he was not coming to
Columbus to ﬁx the Buckeyes’
defense. His focus has been
more on attitude.
“What he did was try to add
a little bit more swag to the
defense,” junior linebacker
Chris Worley said. “Not just
thinking about making a good
play but thinking about making
a great play. Not just thinking about stopping teams,
but becoming a smothering
defense.”
