DeWine declares State of Emergency
Staff Report

COLUMBUS — Ohio
Governor Mike DeWine
announced Monday that
he has declared a state
of emergency in 20 Ohio
counties impacted by
damaging ﬂooding last
month.
Ohio counties included
in the governor’s emergency proclamation
include: Adams, Athens,
Brown, Gallia, Guernsey,
Hocking, Jackson, Jefferson, Lawrence, Meigs,
Monroe, Morgan, Muskingum, Noble, Perry,
Pike, Ross, Scioto, Vinton, and Washington.
“Many of these coun-

ties were still recovering
from last year’s severe
ﬂooding when they were
hit hard yet again,” said
Governor DeWine. “This
is a key step in getting
these 20 counties the
assistance they need.”
The counties suffered
from signiﬁcant infrastructure damage as
heavy rains poured down
on already-saturated
soils, damaging public
infrastructure like roads
and culverts. Beginning
February 5 and lasting
through February 13,
severe storms and excessive rainfall created “dangerous and damaging
conditions affecting the

health, safety and welfare
of the citizens of Ohio,”
according to the governor’s proclamation.
The state of emergency
proclamation authorizes
various state departments and agencies to
coordinate the state and
federal response and to
assist local government
in protecting the lives,
safety, health, and property of the residents of
Ohio.
It is not known at this
time what impact this
could have on assisting
the Village of Middleport with the damage to
Middleport Hill and the
surrounding area which

occurred as a result of
the heavy rains.
Representatives from
FEMA and the Ohio
Emergency Management
Agency will be meeting
with county and township ofﬁcials in each of
the 20 counties this week
to assess the extent of
damages in a process
called a “joint damage
assessment.”
Heavy rains and severe
storms in February
2018 led to an emergency proclamation and a
Major Presidential Disaster in 20 Ohio counties
(14 of which are included
in this year’s proclamation).

Former House leader defends map in court
CINCINNATI (AP) — A former Republican speaker of the
Ohio House insisted Monday
there was Democratic input during the redrawing of the state’s
congressional map.
Retired Rep. William Batchelder, of Medina, testiﬁed Monday,
as a federal trial entered its second week in a lawsuit by voter
rights groups that say the current
seats resulted from “an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander.”
The redrawn districts have held
steady at 12 Republicans and
four Democrats, with few competitive elections since the remap
ahead of 2012 elections.
Batchelder said there were
negotiations with Democrats
including black caucus members,

and he disagreed with the plaintiffs’ accusations that the Republican-controlled process focused
on building the GOP advantage
over objections.
“That was not my premise,”
he said. He acknowledged that
then-U.S. House Speaker John
Boehner, R-West Chester, kept in
touch with him during the Ohio
remapping. Boehner is listed as
potential witness in the trial.
Batchelder said legislators on
both sides agreed early on with
each party losing one seat after
population shifts in the 2010
U.S. Census caused Ohio to lose
two congressional seats.
He said some predominantly
black Democratic precincts in
the Akron area were added to

the House 11 district to make
sure it would remain a blackrepresented district. Democrat
Marcia Fudge has easily won
re-election repeatedly under the
new map, getting 82 percent of
the November 2018 votes.
Those suing say Republicans
packed more black voters into
her district to make neighboring districts more Republican,
among several examples they
cite of manipulation of the new
map for partisan advantage.
A three-judge panel in U.S.
district court is hearing the
case, which could impact districts for the 2020 congressional
elections. The losing side likely
will appeal to the U.S. Supreme
Court.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The body of an Ohio
sailor killed during the Japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor in World War II has been
identiﬁed.
The Defense POW/MIA
Accounting Agency said in a statement Monday that Navy Fireman
3rd Class Willard Lawson was
accounted for on Aug. 27, 2018.
Ofﬁcials say the 25-year-old
sailor from Butler County was
assigned to the battleship USS
Oklahoma at Pearl Harbor when it was attacked by
Japanese aircraft on Dec. 7, 1941. A total of 429
crewmen on the battleship were killed. Only 35 crew
members were identiﬁed over the next few years.
A renewed effort to identify unknown remains
from the USS Oklahoma that began in 2015 resulted
in Lawson’s identiﬁcation.
The Defense Department says Lawson will be
buried April 27 in Madison, Indiana.

Ruling denying transgender
name change overturned
LEBANON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio appeals court
has overturned a judge’s decision that denied a
transgender 15-year-old a legal name change.
The 12th District Court of Appeals ruled recently
that Warren County Probate Judge Joseph Kirby’s
decision “was arbitrary, unreasonable, unconscionable and based solely upon the transgender status
of the applicant’s child.”
The Cincinnati Enquirer reports Kirby’s ruling
claimed the teen lacked the “maturity, knowledge
and stability” to make such a decision.
The parents’ appeal says Kirby ignored advice
from medical and mental health professionals who
say early name changes allow transgender children
to register for school with a name reﬂecting their
gender identity and avoid further confusion and
trauma.
The appeals court returned the case to Kirby for
reconsideration.
A message seeking comment from the judge was
left at the court Monday.

Police: Car fleeing police
hits bus, killing 2 in car
TROTWOOD, Ohio (AP) — Authorities in Ohio

The State Highway Patrol says 18-year-old Kyren
Wright, 18, of Dayton, and an unidentiﬁed teenager
died and the car’s driver was critically injured after
the crash around 6 p.m. Sunday in the Dayton suburb of Trotwood.
Authorities said the Greater Dayton RTA bus
driver and the ﬁve passengers on the bus were taken
to a hospital for injuries that weren’t life-threatening. RTA CEO Mark Donaghy said in a statement
that the bus driver and the passengers “are expected
to be OK.”
Trotwood Police Chief Erik Wilson said the car
crashed while trying to run a red light.
The investigation is continuing.

Boeing jet under scrutiny after Ethiopia crash
By Elias Meseret
and Yidnek Kirubel
Associated Press

HEJERE, Ethiopia
— Airlines in Ethiopia,
China, Indonesia and
elsewhere grounded the
Boeing 737 Max 8 jetliner Monday after the
second devastating crash
of one of the planes in
ﬁve months. But Boeing
said it had no reason to
pull the popular aircraft
from the skies.
As the East African
country mourned the
157 victims of the
Ethiopian Airlines plane
that went down in clear
weather shortly after
takeoff Sunday, investigators found the jetliner’s two ﬂight recorders
at the crash site outside
the capital of Addis
Ababa.
An airline ofﬁcial,
however, said one of the
recorders was partially
damaged and “we will
see what we can retrieve
from it.” The ofﬁcial
spoke on condition of
anonymity for lack of
authorization to speak to
the media.
A witness to the crash
told The Associated
Press that smoke was
coming from the rear of
the plane before it hit
the ground.
“Before falling down,
the plane rotated two
times in the air, and it
had some smoke coming from the back then,
it hit the ground and
exploded,” Tamrat Abera
said. “When the villagers
and I arrived at the site,
there was nothing except
some burning and ﬂesh.”
Ethiopian authorities
are leading the investigation into the crash,
assisted by the U.S.,
Kenya and others.
The crash was similar
to that of a Lion Air
jet of the same model
in Indonesian seas last
year, killing 189 people.

The crash was likely to
renew questions about
the 737 Max 8, the newest version of Boeing’s
single-aisle airliner,
which was ﬁrst introduced in 1967 and has
become the world’s most
common passenger jet.
Safety experts cautioned against drawing
too many comparisons
between the two crashes
until more is known.
Besides the groundings
by airlines in Ethiopia,
China and Indonesia,
Caribbean carrier Cayman Airways, Comair in
South Africa and Royal
Air Maroc in Morocco
temporarily grounded
their Max 8s.
Ethiopian Airlines
decided to ground its
remaining four 737 Max
8s until further notice as
“an extra safety precaution,” spokesman Asrat
Begashaw said. The carrier had been using ﬁve
of the planes and awaiting delivery of 25 more.
But Chicago-based
Boeing said it did not
intend to issue any
new recommendations
about the aircraft to its
customers. It plans to
send a technical team
to the crash site to help
investigators and issued
a statement saying it
was “deeply saddened
to learn of the passing
of the passengers and
crew” on the jetliner.
Among the airlines
still using the plane are
Southwest, American
and Air Canada.
In Washington, Transportation Secretary
Elaine L. Chao said
passenger safety was
the ﬁrst priority for the
administration.
“I want travelers to be
assured and that we are
taking this seriously and
monitoring latest developments,” she said.
It’s unusual for authorities to take the step of
grounding planes, and

Boeing 737 MAX 8 planes are parked near Boeing Co.’s 737 assembly facility Nov. 14, 2018, in Renton,
Wash. Investigators were rushing to the scene of a devastating plane crash in Ethiopia on Sunday, an
accident that could renew safety questions about the newest version of Boeing’s popular 737 airliner.

“If there is a suspicion
... that there’s not only
something inherently
wrong with 737 Max 8
aircraft, but there are no
procedures in place to
cure the problem, then
yes, they should either
ground the plane, or
there are several levels
of things they could do,”
Curtis said.
People from 35 countries died in the crash
six minutes after takeoff
from Ethiopia’s capital
for Nairobi. Ethiopian
Airlines said the senior
pilot issued a distress
call and was told to
return but all contact
was lost shortly afterward. The plane plowed
into the ground at Hejere
near Bishoftu, scattering
debris.
“I heard this big
noise,” resident Tsegaye

MARBLEHEAD, Ohio
(AP) — A sheet of ice
holding ﬁshermen on
Lake Erie broke loose in
windy weather Saturday
morning, sending many
of them scrambling to
safety but leaving nearly
four dozen stranded on
the ﬂoe for three hours
more than a mile offshore until emergency
crews could rescue
them.
About 100 of 146
ﬁshermen out on the
ice were able to grab
their gear and make it
back to shore before
any additional ice broke
off, The Blade of Toledo
reported.
One of the stranded
ﬁshermen, 42-year-old
Tony Adkins, said the
ice began to crack quickly and soon there was a
huge gap between the
ice ﬂoe and the shore.
“Thank God the Coast

Adkins, of Akron, Ohio,
told The Blade . “You

BEIJING (AP) —
Boeing’s stock plunged

The Ethiopian Airlines

just four months after
a similar crash of the
same model that killed
189 people in Indonesia.
Authorities in China,

The 737 is the

THEIR VIEW

Celebrating the
growing equality of
women in America
Some of my favorite childhood memories were
of my grandmothers. Those two sweet ladies
just loved to fuss over us whenever we visited.
Mamaw Bridges lived in a small,
old house in Crothersville, Indiana.
Grandma Riley lived a little over
ﬁve miles away in Austin. They
were both small, rural communities.
Their houses were very simple.
Papaw Bridges used a pot-bellied,
coal burning stove to heat the
Randy

I loved visiting in the winter. In
Contributing
the
wee hours of the morning, I
columnist
would barely wake up to the sounds
of Papaw rattling the stove to wake
up the embers. Ashes were replaced with large
chunks of black coal that had been carried in
from the coal shed. It was a simple little house
and a simple, loving life.
In the early 1950s, when nature called in the
middle of the night, we had to take a short walk
down a short path to their outhouse. I never
made that little hike alone.
My Mom always went with me because I just
knew that some horriﬁc beast lived in the shadows of that little, stinky shack.
I grew up being cared for by these women –
my grandmothers and my Mom. They were a
major inﬂuence in my early life. Life was shaped
by those wonderful, loving women.
Mom was a stay-at-home mother. She saw us
off when we left for school. She was there when
we got home. As soon as our chores were done,
Mom would have a snack ready for us.
Grandma Riley was brilliant at making snacks,
especially gingerbread. She also made what she
called hand-pies.
Her homemade crust was ﬁlled with spiced
apples from the short, gnarly trees in her backyard. The entire world would take on the sweet
odor of apples and cinnamon as they baked.
Words cannot describe the joy of warm gingerbread, hand-pies and cold milk in grandma’s
kitchen.
Those women shaped my early life.
Years later, when I started working in healthcare, my ﬁrst job was at Miami Valley Hospital. My instructor in respiratory therapy was
named Ruby. My ﬁrst immediate supervisor
was Donna. They were incredibly smart, caring
women. They became my role models for how to
provide the best of patient care.
They also made me smile every day.
They trained us to do incredibly complex,
lifesaving work, but they also taught us that
patients need kind words and that warm, genuine smiles can lift a patient’s spirits and improve
their day as much as a breathing treatment.
From April 1970 until I retired from healthcare in 2006, I had the honor of working with
many, many dedicated women. From Miami
Valley Hospital to Memorial Hospital of Union
County and ﬁnally here at Clinton Memorial
Hospital, strong women inﬂuenced my career
and my life.
In those early years, healthcare was a female
dominated industry. Even today, women account
for around 90 percent of all nurses and healthcare providers.
Throughout my career, most of my co-workers
and many of my supervisors were females. It
was an honor to be associated with so many
wonderful people.
Last week was the annual observance of International Women’s Day. IWD has been celebrated
for over 100 years. It is a global day of celebrating the social, economic and cultural achievements of women. Their achievements have been
immense.
From the year 1903, when Madame Curie
became the ﬁrst woman to win a Nobel Prize,
women have demonstrated strength, intelligence
and the ability to make the world a better place.
Women deserve equal rights, equal recognition and equal pay for the work they do.
Thankfully, things are improving. Hopefully,
when my granddaughters enter adulthood and
the workplace, they will have every opportunity
to achieve and succeed.
My youngest granddaughter is preschool
aged. My oldest granddaughter will graduate
from high school this year. They deserve the
best of educational opportunities and job opportunities.
They will always deserve to be well paid for
the work they do.
We are blessed to be surrounded by some
amazing women. I know that I’ve been blessed
by wonderful, loving grandmothers, my own
blessed mother, my wife, daughter and six beautiful, talented granddaughters.
Now, I can’t wait to watch my beautiful granddaughters break into the world.
Look out world. They’re coming.

Killing moles is NOT

it takes a lot of hard

Champlin. “ I cannot emphasize enough my appreciation of our citizens utilizing this tool and others
like it to report crimes. I encourage everyone to
take a stand with us and say enough is enough. One
life lost to addiction is one too many.”

Badgers outlast OSU in OT, 73-67
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — Wisconsin
coach Greg Gard wasn’t
sure whether to be mad
at his players for blowing a 23-point secondhalf lead at Ohio State
or happy they found a
way to win.
Ultimately, Gard
settled on a positive
outlook after his 21stranked Badgers rallied
for a 73-67 overtime win
on Sunday.
“We’ll be ﬁne,” Gard
said. “This is a great lesson for us. It’s a better
lesson than doing that
and losing it. We have
to look at how well we
played for 33 or 35 minutes. We did some really
good things, and we did
some good things in
overtime, too.”

Wisconsin (22-9, 14-6)
snagged the No. 4 seed
and a bye in the ﬁrst
two rounds of the Big
Ten tournament, which
starts Wednesday in
Chicago.
“For this group, to do
what they’ve done this
year, given the predictions and prognostications, to ﬁnish fourth
and get the double-bye
is a heck of an accomplishment for our guys,”
Gard said.
Wisconsin was up by
23 and appeared to be
cruising to an easy win
in the second half. But
Ohio State (18-13, 8-12)
went on a 27-5 run over

WVU, 85-77
STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — In their ﬁnal
game of what has been an obstacle-ﬁlled season,
Oklahoma State pulled out an 85-77 victory over
West Virginia Saturday.
When the game was over, OSU coach Mike
Boynton addressed the fans at Gallagher-Iba Arena
and told them, despite not having the season they
wanted, one day they will be hosting a banner in
the rafters.
When junior guard Lindy Waters was told what
his coach said, his response was “next season.”
That is the conﬁdence Oklahoma State has been
playing with the past month despite losing three
members of their basketball team for disciplinary
reasons in January.
“I just remember Jan. 17, because it was my
birthday and I was here holding tryouts,” Boynton
said. “On that date, everybody is telling our team
it’s over. Go do something else and we’ll see you
next year. I’m sitting in front of them and telling
them, ‘guys, we can still get the job done.’ At some
point, they started to believe that.” With only a
seven-man rotation and a group of walk-ons, the

wins race
in Arizona
AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Kyle Busch made it
a weekend sweep at ISM Raceway in the Arizona
desert.
Just like he nearly did last week at Las Vegas.
Busch tracked down Ryan Blaney over a long
green-ﬂag run before passing his Team Penske
rival for the lead with 16 laps to go, then made his
fuel and tires last to the checkered ﬂag to add a
victory in the NASCAR Cup Series on Sunday to
his triumph in the Xﬁnity Series race.
“We were going to be right on the verge,” Busch
said. “You have to go hard ﬁrst and worry about
fuel afterwards. After I got Blaney, I was able to
save a little bit and take care of my tires for the
rest of the lapped trafﬁc I had to get through.”
Busch’s latest big weekend gives him 199 wins
in NASCAR’s top three series, including 52 at the
Cup level. He will go for the 200 milestone next
weekend at Auto Club Speedway in California.
“It’s not for me to worry about. It’s for everybody else to discuss and talk about and debate
over,” he said of its importance. “But for myself
and the view I’ve had, I’ve been fortunate to be
around a lot of great people and a lot of great
sponsors.”
Busch also won the Xﬁnity race last weekend at
Las Vegas, and he would have hit the 200-mark on
Sunday if not for a speeding penalty in the Cup
Series race that left him with a third-place ﬁnish.
Even after victory outside Phoenix, Busch was

Indians to count on pitching again in 2019
GOODYEAR, Ariz.
(AP) — Presumably,
they will all be ready to
pitch the ﬁrst week of the
season. Right now, Cleveland’s loaded starting
rotation is in limbo.
With the March 28
opener at Minnesota
drawing near, manager
Terry Francona has yet
to say who he will start
against the Twins or how
he will conﬁgure his starters in the early stages of
the season.
There is a lot to consider.
Potential trades involving two-time Cy Young
winner Corey Kluber and
All-Star Trevor Bauer
never materialized this
winter, leaving the lndians with an arsenal of
right-handers, including
Carlos Carrasco, Mike
Clevinger and Shane
Bieber. The strength of
the rotation is one reason
the Indians are predicted
to win the AL Central for
the fourth consecutive
year.
Francona and pitching coach Carl Willis are
evaluating how to seize
momentum in April by
lining up the pitchers in
the most efﬁcient early
season order.
One factor is recognizing that only Bauer will
have pitched enough in
spring training to build
up the arm strength to go
longer.
“We want to keep Trevor in between Carrasco
and Kluber, the reason

being, for early in the
season, Trevor is the one
guy situated to probably
go deeper in the games,”
Francona said of Bauer,
who went 12-6 with a
2.21 ERA in 28 starts
last season. “Staffs are
never quite stretched out
when the season starts,
so Trevor is the one
guy (stretched out). So,
we want to keep him in
between, so we don’t tax
our bullpen.”
Bauer, a proponent
of frequent throwing,
along with long toss
and weighted ball use,
has started three Cactus
League games, completing 11 innings, including
extensive experimentation on his new changeup.
Bieber, in his ﬁrst
major league camp, has
made two starts, for ﬁve
innings.
Clevinger pitched for
the ﬁrst time on Wednesday and Carrasco and
Kluber will make their
Cactus League debuts on
Sunday and Monday.
“We have it lined up
where Kluber could go
Game 1 or later if need
be,” Francona said.
“We’ve kind of lined it up
where we can do some
things. At some point,
you kind of have to make
a decision, but Carl’s
done a good job. Like we
have one game where
Kluber’s pitching and
Clev’s (Clevinger) coming in after him. Then,
we’ll separate them after
that. Clev needs to repeat

his three innings, and so
he’ll do it coming in after
Kluber.”
If Kluber rested ﬁve
days between Cactus
League starts, he would
start again on March 17
and March 23. Then, on
four days’ rest, his fourth
consecutive opening day
assignment is conceivable.
The prestige of starting
on opening day is another
factor. Francona was
asked if the feelings of a
player should be a factor.
“We try to take into
consideration what’s best
for our team,” he said.
“We try to instill in our
guys team-ﬁrst attitudes,
also recognizing that
there are some things
(that matter). Yeah, we
get it. We’ve talked to
Kluber about it. I think
he’d like to be ready for
that opening day. And if
he is, for all he’s done,
he’s very worthy of pitching on opening day.”
In the next breath,
Francona noted that
Bauer and Carrasco are
worthy of getting the ball
on opening day, too.
“We’re pretty fortunate
in that we got pitchers
— that if something happened — we could throw
any of them out there
and we feel like we got a
good chance to win,” he
said.
Catcher Kevin
Plawecki, who was
acquired in a trade with
the Mets on Jan. 6, spent
the past four seasons

working with exceptional
starters Jacob deGrom
and Noah Syndergaard.
He knows the Indians
have something unusual.
“The guys here are
all special,” he said.
“One through ﬁve, you
are going to have a guy
who has a chance to win
every night.”
The quintet is at different stages of their
careers.
Bieber, 23, is at the
beginning. The former
University of CaliforniaSanta Barbara standout
rose from Double A to
win 11 games and post a
4.55 ERA in 2018.
Carrasco, who will
turn 33 on March 21,
recorded more than 215
strikeouts in three of the
past four seasons.
Clevinger, 28, combined with Kluber, 32, to
become the fourth duo in
Indians history to pitch
at least 200 innings and
exceed 200 strikeouts.
Bauer, 28, pitched
so deeply into games
in 2018 that he logged
175.1 innings, one fewer
than in 2017 despite
missing six weeks
recovering from a stress
fracture in his ﬁbula,
incurred by a line drive
on Aug. 12.
“Trevor Bauer had
a year that was like a
kind of a coming out
(party),” Francona said.
“And I actually think he’s
going to get better with
the development of his
changeup.”

Cowboys
From page 6

Cowboys have taken
teams such as Texas
Tech and Kansas to the
wire before losing. But
they didn’t allow that to
happen against the Mountaineers.
WVU’s Lamont West
drained a 30-footer to cut
Oklahoma State’s lead to
76-74 with 2:59 left in the
game. But Waters came
right back and hit his
own 3-pointer in front of
the Cowboy’s bench.
WVU had a chance
at a layup, but Yor Anei
blocked fellow freshman
center Derek Culver’s
attempt. It was his eighth
blocked shot of the game.
“I try to block everything,” Anei said. “It just
felt like normal, natural
instincts.”
Anei then sprinted
down court and caught
an alley-oop pass and
dunked to give OSU an
81-74 advantage.
After a pair of free
throws from OSU’s Isaac
Likekele, WVU’s Jermaine
Haley hit a 3-pointer.
Oklahoma State’s Cameron McGriff missed a
free throw and WVU got
the board.
However, Culver came
up short on a layup
attempt and Likekele put
the game away with a
pair of free throws.
Waters scored 19 points
to lead ﬁve players in

OSU pushed its record to
12-19 on the season and
5-13 in the Big 12.
To go with his freshman record of eight

The Mountaineers were
led by Culver, West and
Haley with 16 points each
as WVU dropped to 12-19
and 4-14 in conference.
Culver added 21
rebounds, including six
on the offensive end.
“I don’t know who is
better,” WVU coach Bob
Huggins said when he
was asked if Culver was
the best freshman in the
Big 12. “I don’t know if
anybody is better.”
With both teams sitting at the bottom of the
conference standings,
they were also playing
for seeding in the upcoming Big 12 Tournament
March 13-16 in Kansas
City. With the win, Oklahoma State locked itself
into the ninth seed and
will take on TCU in the
opener. West Virginia
will face No. 7 seed Oklahoma.
“I don’t think anybody
is excited about playing
us,” Huggins said.
Boynton also likes his
team’s chances when they
head to Kansas City for
the conference tournament because of how his
squad has responded to
adversity.
“We know we are a
team that has to play
well as a unit. The
whole is better than the
parts in a lot of ways,”
Boynton said. “So when
we have everybody
doing what they do well
for our team, then we
have a chance. We think
we can play with, and
on most nights be really

Fans and many
media members have
vociferously expressed
displeasure with the
current system regarding coaches’ challenges
since a blown call late
in the NFC championship game — ofﬁcials
missed a blatant pass
interference penalty and
a helmet-ﬁrst hit by the
Rams’ Nickell RobeyColeman deep in Los
Angeles territory. The
non-calls helped Los
Angeles force overtime
and eventually win the
game to reach the Super
Bowl.
But New York Giants
owner John Mara said
last month at the NFL
combine that the powerful competition committee might not feel the
same way.
“I just don’t sense a
lot of support to use
replay to call penalties. I
don’t sense a lot of support for the expansion
of it, either,” Mara said.
“We’re early on, so that
might change, but that’s
my sense of where we
are right now. I’m not
saying it won’t change.”
While the league

is wary of expanded
replays, the Eagles’ suggestion on scoring plays
and turnovers negated
by penalty being
reviewed could garner
support.
Kansas City’s overtime proposals also stem
from recent developments, including the
Chiefs losing the AFC
championship after rallying to tie New England.
The Patriots won the
coin toss, drove downﬁeld and scored a touchdown without KC ever
touching the ball.
The 2017 Super Bowl
ended in similar fashion.
Denver recommended
an alternative to onside
kicks by allowing a team
once during the fourth
quarter to play offense
instead. That team must
notify the referee of
its intention to forgo a
kickoff or safety kick.
The ball will be spotted
on the kicking team’s
35-yard line and that
team will have one down
to gain 15 yards, essentially a fourth-and-15
play. If the play succeeds
in gaining a ﬁrst down,
that team keeps possession as if it recovered an
onside kick.

Raiders acquire WR Antonio Brown
ALAMEDA, Calif.
(AP) — The Oakland
Raiders agreed on a deal
Saturday night to acquire
proliﬁc but disgruntled
receiver Antonio Brown
from the Pittsburgh
Steelers and will give
him the lucrative new
contract he wanted.
A person with direct
knowledge of the trade
told The Associated
Press that the Raiders
ﬁnalized the deal with
the Steelers and will give
Brown a new three-year
contract worth $50.125
million instead of the
$38.925 million he was

owed by Pittsburgh.
The person spoke on
condition of anonymity
because the deal can’t
be completed until the
new league year starts
Wednesday.
Pro Football Talk ﬁrst
reported the deal and
says Pittsburgh will get
third and ﬁfth-round
draft picks from Oakland.
The trade makes ﬁnal
what became a very
messy and very public
divorce between Brown
and the team that helped

est wide receiver of his
generation.
It also gives the Raiders a high-proﬁle addition for second-year
coach Jon Gruden after
trading away two of
the team’s biggest stars
last year in edge rusher
Khalil Mack and receiver
Amari Cooper.
Oakland got extra
ﬁrst-round picks in those
trades but didn’t need
to give up any of its four
picks in the top 35 in
the upcoming draft to
acquire Brown, who has
topped 100 receptions
and 1,200 yards receiving in each of the past
six seasons. The Raiders
have had only one player
reach those marks in a
single season in franchise history, with Hall
of Famer Tim Brown
accomplishing the feat in
1997.
Brown now gives quarterback Derek Carr his
biggest offensive weapon
since entering the league
in 2014 and the Raiders
a legitimate star before
they move to Las Vegas
for the 2020 season.
The Raiders’ top wide
receiver last season was
Jordy Nelson, who had
just 63 catches for 739
yards.
Gruden has always
admired Brown from his
time as a broadcaster
and had nothing but
praise for the receiver
before the teams played
last December.
“He’s the hardest
working man, I think, in
football,” Gruden said.
“Hardest working player

any young wideouts out
there, I’d go watch him

Brown was obviously pleased with the
development, posting a
picture of himself in a
Raiders uniform and a
video with Carr at a Pro
Bowl with the caption
“Love at ﬁrst sight ” on
his Twitter account.
Brown is no stranger
to drawing headlines for
both his proliﬁc on-ﬁeld
production and his offthe-ﬁeld antics, including livestreaming from
the locker room after a
playoff win over Kansas
City in January 2017 and
getting pulled over for
doing 100 mph in the
northern Pittsburgh suburbs last fall.
The sometimes
tumultuous relationship
between the only player
in NFL history with
six straight 100-catch
seasons and the franchise that made him the
highest-paid player at his
position in the spring of
2017 reached a breaking
point in late December.
Steelers coach Mike
Tomlin benched Brown
during the regularseason ﬁnale against
Cincinnati after the
wide receiver went radio
silent in the ﬁnal 48
hours before the game.
Brown arrived in a fur
coat, hung out for a half
and then disappeared
from view until well
after his teammates had
cleaned out their lockers
following a 9-6-1 ﬁnish
that left Pittsburgh on
the outside of the playoffs for the ﬁrst time
since 2013.
When Brown did
resurface, he began
engaging in a series of
increasingly antagonistic acts designed to
expedite his departure.
He went on Instagram
with former Steelers
linebacker James Harrison during Tomlin’s
season wrap-up press
conference. He decried
quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s “owner’s
mentality” and chastised
Tomlin for disciplining
him in Week 17, no matter that Tomlin and the
rest of the organization
had spent years downplaying Brown’s off-theﬁeld eccentricities.
Brown ofﬁcially
requested a trade last
month, but not before
photo-shopping his
familiar No. 84 onto a
San Francisco 49ers jersey or using his hyperactive social media feeds to
indicate not only his displeasure with the Steelers but also his interest
in signing a new deal
with whomever should
acquire his services.

Molinari charges
to a 64 to win at
Arnie’s place
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Francesco Molinari had
seen so many clutch birdie putts on the 18th green
at Bay Hill, most of them by Tiger Woods in the
ﬁnal group, usually with Arnold Palmer standing
next to the green expecting like everyone else for
them go in.
It was Molinari’s turn Sunday in the Arnold
Palmer Invitational, with a few big differences.
This putt was from 45 feet , longer than anything
Woods ever made. And while it capped off an
8-under 64 and eventually gave Molinari a two-shot
victory, the British Open champion had to wait
nearly two hours to see if his score would hold up.
One more difference.
“I was the ﬁrst to make it with the ﬂag in,” Molinari said with a big smile, alluding to a new rule
that allows the ﬂag stick to stay in the cup with
putts on the green.
All that mattered was that it dropped, capping off
a ﬁve-shot rally with a ﬁnal round no one imagined
on a fast Bay Hill course with putting surfaces that
looked closer to white than green, making it difﬁcult for anyone to get it close to the hole.
“He’s obviously holed a lot of putts to do that
because you can’t get close to these pins,” Matt
Fitzpatrick, the 54-hole leader, said after a 71 to
ﬁnish second. “There’s no way he’s knocked it to 6
feet on every hole. But he played very, very well to
shoot that, and hat’s off to him.”
Fitzpatrick managed only two birdies, the same
number as Rory McIlroy (72), who played in the
ﬁnal group for the third time in ﬁve starts this year
without winning. McIlroy’s downfall was the par 5s
— for his second shots, he had 5-iron, 3-iron, 4-iron
and wedge into the green. He played the four par
5s in 1 under.
“I’m playing well,” McIlroy said after a tie for
sixth, his worst ﬁnish this year. “My Sundays
haven’t been what I would have liked, but I’m putting myself in that position. So good golf is good
golf.”
Molinari delivered the highest quality on a day
that required nothing less. His ﬁve-shot comeback
was the largest at Bay Hill since Woods in 2009,
which he won with a birdie from 15 feet on the
18th hole. He played the ﬁnal 28 holes on this ﬁery
course without a bogey.
Only three of his eight birdie putts were inside 10
feet. Along with the 45-footer at the end, he holed
a 20-foot birdie putt to start his round, an 18-footer
that gave him the lead for the ﬁrst time and he
chipped in from 10 yards off the green at No. 8.
And he ended it with a charge that would have
made Arnie proud, and with the putt that has
become familiar.
“Coming from Italy, we weren’t exposed to that
much golf,” Molinari said. “Obviously, Arnie was
such a global icon, and this tournament was one
that we watched, my brother and myself, at home
many times — watching Tiger making that putt on
18. So it’s still a bit unreal to think that I’ve done
kind of the same today.”
Molinari ﬁnished at 12-under 276, his fourth victory in his last 17 starts over nine months.
No one got closer than two shots the whole time
he was in the locker room watching the back nine,
which was harder than he made his golf look.
Perhaps it was only ﬁtting that the claret jug was
at Bay Hill, which served as part of the Open Qualifying Series. Sung Kang also had a big putt on the
18th hole, this one from 12 feet for par that sewed
up the third and ﬁnal spot offered for the British
Open at Royal Portrush this summer.
The other two spots went to Sungjae Im, the
20-year-old South Korean who closed with a 68
and tied for third; and Honda Classic winner Keith
Mitchell, who made eight birdies in his ﬁnal round
of 66 to tie for sixth.
Tommy Fleetwood, who shared the 36-hole lead
at Bay Hill, recovered from a 76 that knocked him
out of contention by closing with a 68 to join Im at
9-under 279 along with Rafa Cabrera Bello (69).
“I was just trying to hit good shots, give myself
chances,” Molinari said. “I knew it was not going to
be easy. The course was ﬁrm and fast yesterday and
I knew it wasn’t going to be easy for the guys in the
lead, so I thought there was an outside chance. And
yeah, just started making putts, one of my best putting rounds ever.”

colonoscopy done, the prep was so much easier than I thought
it would be!
If you are worried about the prep and procedure, don’t be. Have
your colonoscopy. You’ll be glad you did.
