WASHINGTON Americans would have to sign up for a new military draft after turning 18 under a bill" the incoming chairman of the House Ways · and Means Committee says he will introduce next year. . · Rep. Charles Rangel, DN .Y., said Sunday he sees his idea as . a way to deter politicians from launching wars. "There's no question in my mind that thts president and this administration would never have invaded Iraq, especially on the flimsy evidence that was presented to the Congress, if indeed we had a draft and members of Congress and the administration thought that their kids from their commumues would · be placed in harm's way," Rangel said. Rangel, a veteran of the Korean War who has unsuccessfully sponsored legislation on conscription in the past, said he will propose a measure early next year. While he said he is serious about the proposal, there is little evidenr support among lawmakers for it. In 2003, Rangel proposed a measure covering people age 18 to 26. This year, he offered a plan to mandate military service for men and women between age 18 and 42; it went nowhere in the Republican-led Congress.

The two PlayStation 3 models cost $500 and $600, with no included game. The two Xbox 360 models cost $300 and $400, with no game. Online, the prices arf steeper: PlayStation 3s were selling for around $2,500. on eBay Saturday. while Wiis (listed by sellers who had pre-ordered from retailers and expected to get the un i1> Sunday) were listed at around $500.

"People put us down and out, but we're not going to quit," said Roethlisberger. who brought Pittsburgh back a week ago to beat New Orleans and shook off a sore shoulder in 'the fourth period. "We stayed together and came back to win." Roethlisberger made tiis impromptu flick to Parker after avoiding Browns rookie Kamerion Wimbley, who pressured the QB throughout the second half and drilled him several times on the Steelers' game-winning drive. "I scrambled and . saw Willie," said Roethlisberger, 18-for-29 in the finall5 minutes, "I told him later I thought twice about giving it Ill him. He didn 't like that, but I was joking. I knew he'd get in." Parker, whose !-yard TD . run with 4: 14 left brought the Steelers within 20-17, gave aU the credit to his quarterback. "It was completely improvised by Ben." Parker said. '1t was a great play. He's our leader. We came back when he did' it all." The ' victory was the Steelers' first in five road games this season and Pittsburgh's first away from Heinz Field since humiliating the Browns 41-0 on Christmas Eve last season. The Browns (3- 7) spent all week talking about getting revenge, and for most ·of the rainy afternoon it looked like they would get it. ·Michigan from PageBl Michigan gets another shot at Ohio State, it would be a different game. He then added that if it doesn't happen, the Wolverines will only have themselves to blame. "Do I think there should be a rematch? Probably," he said.

In the end that would prove costly for the Redmen . The Cardinals took a 1-0 lead after the first round in the shoccc:"; ·when Dusty Green "unnected on his kick and Rio Grande's Jason Massie 's blast pinged off the right goalpost. Shields gave the Cardinals command of the shootout when he stopped Callum Morris' shot to the left to give William Jewell a 3-1 lead after the third round. Rio Grande goalie Derek Talcott stopped John Barber 's pick in the fourth round to keep the Redmen alive, but Shields then saved Conar Dawson kick to preserve the win. William Jewell improved . to 18-2-2 and will face the winner of the quarterfinal between No. 8 seed Azusa Pacific Un.i versity at 6 p.m. Monday in a semifinal contest. The Redmen ended their season at 182-1. • two straight games si nee 2003, might hang on. Roethlisberger, though, refused to let the Steelers down. Finally finding his touch, he completed three thirddown passes as Pittsburgh drove 79 yards and pulled within 20-17 on Parker's 1yard run. Cleveland's offense had a chance to run time off the clock, but after two running plays gained just 2 yards, Frye's third-<lown pass was batted down at the line by leaping Steelers safety Troy Polamalu. The Steelers got the ball back with 3:06 left, and Roethlisberger hit passes of 13, 15 and 21 yards to get Pittsburgh in range for a possible tying field goal. He then hooked up with Holmes for a first down at Cleveland's 16. Two plays later, he bought himself just enough time from Cleveland's rush to flip the ball to Parker. . "Ben's got eyes to find you, so you better stay ready all the time," Parker said. "He'll make something out of nothing. And he got us this But Cleveland's defense couldn't stop Roethlis~rger when it mattered most, and the Browns dropped their sixth straight game to their bitter rivals, who have won 12 of the last 13 between the teams. "We had them," said tight end Kellen Winslow, who engaged in some serious pregame trash talki11g with Pittsburgh 's Joey Porter. "We're in every single game. We just have to find a way to pull it out at the end." Porter had no sympathy. "If you talk and lose, you're still losers." he said. "They talk like a different team, but in reality they are ·not. They had all the breaks, all the bounces. But when it was nail-biting time and you've got to make plays, who made them?" After Roethlisberger's hookup with Parker, the Browns drOve to Pittsburgh's 22. With 3 seconds left, Charlie Frye threw a jump · ball to the back of the end zone that Braylon Edwards nearly grabbed in a crowd. But when the ball fell to the ground, several of the Steelers dropped to their knees in relief. Edwards, Winslow and other Cleveland players consoled each other after another tough loss. "This is very disappointing, especially after that 41-0 loss ]ast year," linebacker Andra Davis said. "We've been looking forward to this one since that clock went to zeros." The Browns, who led I 0-0 at halftime, were up 13-10 after Roethlisberger connected for a 20-yard TD pass to rookie Santonio Holmes with 9:33 left. But Cleveland's Joshua Cribbs returned the ensuing kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown, and it looked as if the Browns, who haven't won Roethlisberger finished 25-of-44 for 272 yards and two TDs. Frye was 17-of-27 for 224 yards. Cleveland's offense wasted two scoring chances in the first quarter, but ~ defense gave the Browns a 7-0 lead a~ cornerback Daven Holly returned a tipped pass 57 . yards to make it 7-0. Notes: Wimbley's 6 1-2 sacks are the most by a Browns rookie. Michael Dean Perry had .six sacks in 1988. Browns RB Reuben Droughns sat out with· a sprained right foot. His replacement.

"I would love for there to be a rematch, of course. Now, if I won, I would probably be like, 'No, I don't want a rematch."' Michigan's best chance to . play for their fust national title since 1997 would be for Florida, USC, Arkansas · and Notre Dame - who lost47-21 to the Wolverines - to drop another game ove~ the next two weeks. If at least one of those · four contenders remains a one-loss team, it will come down to poll voters and computer rankings that the BCS uses to determine the top two teams to match up iri its national championship game. "The BCS is a system that we have that will take care of all of that," Michigan coach -Lloyd Carr said. "I think it will be very interesting to see what transpires in the polls as . we go forward, but I don't want to speculate.
