Railroad
museum roof
nearly finished

GALLIPOLIS — The
Gallipolis Railroad
Freight Station Museum on Third Avenue
has a bright new coat
of paint, an ofﬁcial
sign and the majority
of its vintage slate roof
replaced as efforts to
get the aged station
into working order take
fruit.
According to
Cki[kc�8eWhZ�L_Y[#
President Jerry Davis,
in the museum’s entry,
workers have done
away with a drop ceiling and removed plywood which previously
covered walls on the
building’s interior.
“This is the original
wood and chimney you
would have seen in the
station’s operation,”
said Davis. “This is
what it looked like in

1901.”
The station will be
painted in yellow and
dark colors to match
with the previously
owning company of the
building.
“(The station) was
built in 1901 by Hocking Valley Railroad,”
said Davis previously.
“Chesapeake and Ohio
took possession of
it. Then in (the early
1980s) CSX had control of it. They closed
it. They condemned the
building and turned it
over to the McIntyre
Park district. They took
up the rails and paved
(a walking path).”
Along with the roof
replacement, Gingerich
Construction has been
at work replacing and
repairing the back portion of the station by
giving its eaves new
supports. According

Erwin, Durst win Pull of Champions
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

ROCKSPRINGS — A Friday morning tradition
at the Meigs County Fair, the Kiddie Tractor Pull of
Champions pairs the four daily winners in each division against one another to determine the week’s
champions.
And has become tradition for the past six years,
Trace Erwin, now an upcoming sixth grader has been
part of the Pull of Champions. As an 11-year-old, this
was Erwin’s last year to compete in the kiddie tractor
pull.
Erwin held four consecutive ﬁrst place titles before
ﬁnishing second in the 2016 Pull of Champions to
one of his friends.
Seeking the ﬁrst place title in his ﬁnal year of competition, Erwin told the audience that he does back
ﬂips to get ready to pull and demonstrated those ﬂips
on the pull track before making one ﬁnal exhibition
pull after completing three “full-pulls” to win the title.
Erwin took ﬁrst place in the 56-75 pound weight
class, completing the three full-pulls. Second place

Kayak races planned
for Tribute to the River
event in September
By Morgan McKinniss
mmckinniss@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Kayakers now
have a new event to prepare for.
The Point Pleasant River Museum and Learning
Center will be hosting a kayak race as part of its
Tribute to the River event. On Sept. 2, kayakers
will take off from the Riverfront Park Amphitheater in a two-mile race in the Ohio River. The race
will start at 1 p.m..
Participants can preregister at the river museum
or on the day of the race starting at 10 a.m., the
cost is free. There will be three classes, kayaks
under ten feet in length, over 10 feet, and twoman canoe. Trophies will be given to winners in
each class.
“We wanted to try something different. We’ve
done the dragon races in the past, but they
became too expensive to continue,” explained Jack
Fowler, director of the museum. “This is something new to help spice up Tribute to the River.”
Tribute began about eight years ago as a sternwheel regatta the week before the regatta in Marietta. Sternwheelers wanted to do an event on the
way to Marietta, one of the biggest inland regattas
in the country, and Tribute became the perfect ﬁt.
“It’s a way for us to give a tribute to those who

MARIETTA — Seven
communities in ODOT District 10 will receive a total
of more than $4 million from
the 2017 Transportation
Alternatives Program (TAP).
The application process
is a two-step process. Each
January, ODOT invites local
agencies to submit Letters of
Interest describing their proposed projects and how they
meet the requirements and
objectives of the Transportation Alternatives Program.
ODOT evaluates each letter
and then invites the project
sponsors who have a qualifying project to submit a more
in-depth, formal application
by the middle of May of each
year.
“Those applications go
through a scoring process
and the merits of each project are discussed by a committee to determine which
projects will be funded.
Applications exceed the
available funds each year,”
said ODOT District 10 Planning Engineer Alan Craig.
Locally, the village of
Middleport’s Leading Creek
Watershed Multi-Purpose
Trail Phase II was awarded
$336,938.86.
The Middleport Multipurpose Trail Phase II will
connect the existing 1.6
mile multipurpose trail and
extend it through tree shaded residential areas ending
at the Marina, a park area
which includes a boat launch
into Leading Creek with
access to the Ohio River
for kayaking and canoeing,
wooded and picnic areas and
a paved parking lot for boat
trailers and vehicles.

THEIR VIEW

Preparing
for going
back to school
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…The
kids are heading back to school!
This is also the time of year that school environment inspections are performed. This is a lesser
known responsibility that falls on local health
departments. The school environment inspection is performed on
each public school twice per year.
We walk through the entire school,
inside and outside. We look for anything in the environment that could
cause harm to the children or staff.
Some examples of things we would
Meigs
look for include: broken playground
Health equipment, damaged steps or hand
Matters rails, trip hazards, broken desks/
Dawn Keller chairs. We also scan the area for
hazards such as blocked walk ways
and doors, out dated safety equipment, blocked eyewash stations in the chemistry
&amp; physics rooms, and we ensure chemicals and
toxic substances are stored in secure locations.
We look to see that there is adequate hand soap
in restrooms and if the restroom facilities are
functioning properly. We talk to the school nurse
to see if they are adequately supplied. We check
to see that areas of the school which are supposed
to be off limits to students are locked; this would
include electrical closets, storage closets and
chemical supply rooms. We look at the ceilings
to make sure all the ceiling tiles are in place and
that vents are cleaned. This one may sound a little
trivial, but missing tiles allow air pollution into
the rooms and blocked vents prohibit the circulation of good air. The height of the water spout on
each water fountain is checked. If the spout is too
high, water will splash onto the ﬂoor, causing a fall
hazard. If the water spout is too low, children will
touch the fountain with their mouths, which will
spread germs. Mold can also be a health hazard, so
the presence of mold would end up on the report.
Since there is an inﬁnite range of possible hazards
in any setting, this list is not all inclusive. But,
these are the types of things we would notice.
Any hazard found is then written on a report
along with a brief description of why it is a hazard, and the recommendation of how to eliminate
it. This report is sent to each school system, usually to the director of maintenance. The director
or other school ofﬁcial can then evaluate the recommendations and take action accordingly.
It’s just another way the Meigs County Health
Department is working with the community to
promote and protect public health.

Department.

THEIR VIEW

Bannon’s firing
provides some
relief but is no cure
The following editorial appeared in The Dallas
Morning News on Saturday, Aug. 19:
President Donald Trump’s top adviser, Steve
Bannon, is out of the White House. The departure
is welcome; his corrosive inﬂuence and association with white nationalists represents some of the
worst elements in politics.
That said, it would be unwise to consider this
anything more than just a small step in the right
direction.
While the addition of John Kelly as chief of
staff — and H.R. McMaster before him as national
security adviser — may have played a stabilizing
role on White House staff, nothing we’ve seen so
far convinces us that much will change. Why? The
real problem is President Donald Trump.
In just the last few weeks, Trump managed to
shame Attorney General Jeff Sessions publicly;
tweet a transgender military ban without informing the military; and politicize a speech to Boy
Scouts and then lie about a phone call from a Boy
Scout leader. He made up a phone conversation
with the president of Mexico over border protection. He “joked” about Vladimir Putin kicking 750
diplomats out of Russia. He waited days to sign
an overwhelming bipartisan Russian sanctions
bill and then complained Congress made him sign
it. He “joked” about cops roughing up suspects.
He threatened a possible nuclear war with North
Korea. And all of that was before his offensive
responses to the events in Charlottesville.
The list is wearying. And ongoing.
Bannon certainly had his hands on some of
Trump’s most controversial policy proposals... but
it deﬁes reality to think the country can rest easy
now that Bannon is out of the White House.

THEIR VIEW

When school days beckon
This week, summer
comes to an end for parents and their kids with a
return to the classroom,
the commencement of
the 2017-2018 school
year. Oh, the calendar
tells is it’s ofﬁcially summer for another month
and students will still
be wearing cooler clothing for a while longer,
but for all intent and
purposes, the time for
buckling down to the
books, having fun with
extracurricular activities,
and reconnecting with
friends you haven’t kept
in touch with through
cell phones and Twitter
are the norm for the next
nine months.
The routine of the
new year is marked by
such rituals as shopping for new clothes
and school supplies, and
resolutions, mainly to
make it the best time
yet both academically,
athletically and socially.
Whether or not those
wishes are fulﬁlled may
be determined by the
ﬁrst week of classes, or
even the ﬁrst football
game or dance, but they
serve as a guidepost
for scholars thinking
ahead about their academic future. Others
are simply enjoying the
experience as much as
they can, not so much
concered about grades
but about the socialization process, even if
that word comes from
a $10 vocabulary. With
the demands placed on
elementary-level students to excel, the time
they have to enjoy themselves becomes very precious. Finding a balance
between study and goofing around is difﬁcult,
but not out of reach
unless a child, be it on
the grade-or-high-school
level, abandons one for
the other. The end result
isn’t always the best.

On another level, a
fond farewell to Remo
Rocchi, whose downtown Gallipolis hot dog
restaurant represented
the distinct kind of place
that gives a community its own particular
charm. Remo left us at
95 on Aug. 13, having
lived a full life with his
family and in a town
that not only made his
hot dog sauce a local
favorite but the envy of
similar vendors around
the region. How many
people came to Gallipolis and had to try a
Remo dog while they
were there, having heard
about its one-of-a-kind
taste? I can’t begin to
guess.
Remo knew his business, but also a great
deal about many things;
I recall a conversation
he had with a co-worker
in which he revealed a
wisdom not often heard
these days. I was pleasantly reacquainted with
that viewpoint of his
when I had the pleasure
of interviewing him in
August 2007 on the 50th
anniversary of Remo’s
Italian Hot Dog Restaurant, based at 241 Second Ave., busily serving
customers as we spoke.
He was an individual I
can honestly say that I
regret not having known
better. Rest in peace,
Mr. Rocchi.

Ohio Valley Publishing for 21 years,

YOUR VIEW

Talking tractor pulls
Dear Editor,
This year was a “bittersweet” time at the fair for
me. My husband, Huck Wagner, has been a part of
the tractor pulls at the Meigs County Fair for over
43 years. Over the last month dozens of people have
come up to him, as they do every year, to say, “Are
you ready to pull?” It was difﬁcult for him to say, “I’m
not pulling this year, they are not pulling any of my
classes.” This letter is simply an explanation about

the rule changes that have occurred and the impact
that they have on those that participate. Yes, he did
plan to pull, but his tractor doesn’t ﬁt in this year.
For all of you that wonder why “The Huckster” didn’t
go down the pulling track at the fair, now you know.
If you see him, and feel it in your heart to do so, just
thank him for the years of entertainment that he provided in the past.
Respectfully,
Sherry Wagner
Racine, Ohio

Ironton tabbed to win OVC again
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com

Paul Boggs | OVP Sports

Gallia Academy’s Garrett Burns (3) catches a pass against Point Pleasant during
last season’s non-league football game at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field.

It’s not at all a surprise that
the Ironton Fighting Tigers
— per a preseason media poll
conducted by the Ohio Valley
Publishing sports department
— are once again tabbed as
the favorite for the Ohio Valley
Conference football title.
However, the gap between
Ironton and the remainder of
the OVC is not as large as you
might think.
That’s because the Fighting
Tigers’ top two challengers,
as predicted by the league’s
media, are only within 10
points of Ironton —as the
Tigers were not predicted to

win the OVC in unanimous
fashion.
Ironton — the two-time
defending conference champion in as many years in the
league — amassed 53 points
and ﬁve ﬁrst-place votes, but
runner-up Chesapeake is right
behind at 49.
Portsmouth posted 43 points
for third-place, as both Chesapeake and Portsmouth picked
up a ﬁrst-place vote apiece
worth eight points.
Rock Hill had 31 points to
take fourth, as Fairland clipped
Coal Grove —26-24 — to ﬁnish ﬁfth.
Gallia Academy, after a 1-6
OVC campaign last season and
part of 1-9 overall —added 19

points, as South Point placed
eighth with only seven.
In fact, the Blue Devils
defeated South Point in the
season ﬁnale for their only win.
The Ohio Valley Publishing
sports department had three
votes in the poll, while two
votes belonged to The Portsmouth Daily Times — with
one to The Ironton Tribune
and another to The Huntington
Herald-Dispatch.
With Gallia Academy entering its second season of OVC
play, Ironton is actually a perfect 13-of-13 in league games
—including all seven from last
year.

ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

Herd hoping for better things in 2017

2017 MARSHALL FOOTBALL ROSTER

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Looking
to avoid a repeat performance.
The 2016 Marshall football season
did not turn out as expected as the
Thundering Herd limped to a 3-9
overall record and a 2-6 ﬁnish in
Conference USA — far cries from the
three consecutive double-digit-win
seasons and the 2014 CUSA crown
that the program had put together
leading into last fall.
The Herd — who return only 63
players from last year — enter the
2017 campaign hoping to avoid a
similar gridiron outcome, despite having two-ﬁfths of newcomers on their
current 105-man roster.
The Green and White, however,
do have experience on both sides of
the ball — and those fresh faces also
provide some much-needed ﬁrepower
and energy to a squad looking to
avoid a similar fate as last season.
As MU coach Doc Holliday enters
his eighth season at the helm, he is
optimistic that the program won’t
have another letdown like it did last
fall.
“We did a lot of re-evaluating after
last year and we feel we’ve made the
adjustments that needed to be made.
We started in January in trying to
become better as a football team and I
think we’ve done that,” Holliday said.
“We’ve had a tremendous winter and
a good spring practice to carry into
the summer, so now it’s up to us to
carry it out of fall camp and into the
season.
“I like the way that these guys have
gone about their work and we are
really excited for the season.”
The good news in regards to the
returning players is that almost every
position on the ﬁeld has experience
coming back to the lineup, with the
exception of the wideout position.
In fact, Marshall’s receiving corps
returns only 73 of its 264 completions
from last fall, so establishing some
new outside threats will be one of the
biggest areas of needed growth if the
Herd hopes to improve on last season’s overall mark.
Still, MU has the luxury of a two-

Kenseth still needs a car for next year
BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) — Matt
Kenseth still doesn’t have a job lined
up for next season and the two-time
Daytona 500 winner doesn’t really
want to discuss his situation.
Kenseth is in the ﬁnal year of his
contract with Joe Gibbs Racing and
the team has said Erik Jones will drive
the No. 20 Toyota next year. The move
left Kenseth without a ride, and seats
are extremely hard for veterans to land
in this current climate.

Ironton

Team owners have found younger,
unproven drivers are much cheaper
to hire as sponsorship dollars are
declining.
Asked Friday at Bristol Motor
Speedway if he has anything for
next year, Kenseth said: “No, not at
the moment. When I do, I’ll tweet
something. Like on a Monday or
something. No plans right now. Just
raise kids and hang out with my
family.”

year starting quarterback returning
in junior Chase Litton, as well as the
team’s top rusher last year in redshirt
junior Keion Davis and the team’s
top red zone threat in senior Ryan
Yurachek.
The Green and White also return
three starters up front offensively and
have several players back that saw
action in the trenches last fall.
After averaging 26.4 points, 242
receiving yards and 108 rushing yards
per game last year offensively, Holliday
noted that he is optimistic about not
only who is returning — but the newcomers to the roster and what they can
add.
“I’m conﬁdent in the players that we
have coming back, but there were some
areas that I felt like we needed to get
more explosive at,” Holliday said. “We
have added some running back depth
and we have some versatile players at
the wide receiver spots that we feel
make us better athletically, plus the
offensive line is back and healthy with a
whole offseason to get better.
“There is no question that I feel good
about where we are with out personnel,
now we just have to develop that talent
and make sure that we are prepared to
play.”
Defensively, there are fewer question
marks headed into the 2017 campaign
as Marshall returns eight starters and
several experienced players to a unit
that allowed 35.3 points, 202 rushing
yards and 253 receiving yards per contest last fall.
The Herd lost their top tackler and
team leader in interceptions in Corey
Neely, as well as their top sack leader in
Gary Thompson, to graduation.
Nonetheless, the defense returns ﬁve
of its top six tacklers from a year ago
and also has numerous players with
quality in-game experience — both up
front and in back.
Both place kicker Amoreto Curraj
and punter Kaare Vedvik return to their
specialized positions, as do the leading
punt returner (Hyleck Foster) and kick
returner (Davis) from last year.

Marshall’s return to winning football won’t be an easy task in 2017 as
the Green and White will face seven
teams that qualiﬁed for bowl games last
fall — the same number as last year’s
schedule.
The Herd faces a pair of bowl qualiﬁers to start the year in Miami of Ohio
and N.C. State before hosting Kent
State and traveling to Cincinnati to
wrap up its non-conference schedule.
MU is also playing the same CUSA
schedule as last year, with the exception of traveling to Texas-San Antonio
instead of facing North Texas this fall.
None of those dozen games will be
easy, so getting off on the right foot
will be key for a program looking to get
back to its traditional winning ways.
And that starts at home on Sept. 2
against the RedHawks.
“This year will once again be a challenge, starting with Miami of Ohio.
They have an excellent team that won
six straight at the end of the year and
they have 19 starters coming back.
We’ll have our work cut out for us right
out of the gate,” Holliday said. “We
have some tough games this season,
so the main thing for us is just staying
focused on becoming a better football
team a week at a time … starting with
Miami.”
Holliday also wants to see the program get itself headed back in the right
direction this year … mainly because
Marshall has been one of the winningest programs in the country over
the last two decades.
He also doesn’t want that to change
under his watch.
“The expectations are extremely
high here, and that’s okay because I’ve
always said that I didn’t want to coach
anywhere that didn’t have high expectations,” Holliday said. “We understand
what is expected out of us from our fan
base, so we really need to get back to
playing the kind of football that we did
those three years prior to last year.
“We also understand that with those
expectations come responsibility. We
need to get back to work and give our
fans what they deserve. We’re looking
forward to it.”

Smith regains the lead in Riverside senior league
Staff Report

MASON, W.Va. — With just six
weeks remaining, Dewey Smith has
regained the lead in the Riverside
senior men’s golf league.
Smith’s total of 96.5 places him a
full ﬁve points ahead of second place
Randall Thornhill, who held the lead a

week ago.
On Tuesday, 72 players on hand, making up 18 foursomes.
The low score for the day was a
13-under par 57, ﬁred by the quartet of
Jeff Hubbard, Glenn Long, Paul Maynard and Carl Stone.
There was a tie for second, at

11-under par, between the group of
Steve Safford, Bobby Watson, Ed Coon
and Dave Seamon and the team of Rich
Mabe, J.R. Killingsworth, Albert Durst
and Dale Miller.
The closest to the pin winners were
Harry Grifﬁn on the ninth hole and Willis Korb on No. 14.

The current top-10 standings are as
follows: , Dewey Smith (96.5), Randall
Thornhill (91.5), Glenn Long (86.5),
Haskel Jones (84.0), Mick Winebrenner
(81.0), Ed Coon (79.5) Jimmy Gress
and Bill Carney (76.0), Paul Maynard
(75.5), Cecil Gillette Sr. and Kenny
Pridemore (75.0).

Franklin inks contract extension with PSU through 2022
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP)
— Penn State coach James
Franklin has signed a contract
extension that guarantees him
$34.7 million through 2022.
According to terms released
by Penn State on Friday, the
deal is worth an average of
$5.78 million annually and
contains up to $1 million in
incentive bonuses each year.
The extension modiﬁes the initial six-year contract Franklin
signed when he was hired in
2014. That contract was to pay
him $4.6 million this year.
After back-to-back 7-6 seasons in Franklin’s ﬁrst two
years in Happy Valley, the Nittany Lions won the Big Ten

last year. Penn State ﬁnished
11-3 and No. 6 in the country
after starting 2-2, capping the
program’s best season in the
post-Joe Paterno era with a
52-49 loss to Southern California in the Rose Bowl.
A blowout loss to Michigan
last September had Penn State
fans doubting Franklin’s ability to turn around a program
that was still recovering from
NCAA sanctions brought on
by the Jerry Sandusky scandal.
Athletic director Sandy Barbour was even compelled to
give Franklin a public vote of
conﬁdence.
Less than a year later,
Franklin has a contract that by

annual average compensation
puts him behind only Urban
Meyer of Ohio State and Jim
Harbaugh of Michigan among
Big Ten coaches.
According the USA Today
coaches’ salary data base, Harbaugh, Meyer and Nick Saban
were the only coaches who
made more than $6 million
before bonuses in 2016. Four
other coaches made at least $5
million.
Franklin’s deal would push
him over the $5 million mark in
2019 and reach $6.25 million in
2022, plus a $1 million retention bonus.
The deal has been in the
works for months. It was given

approval by the Board of Trustees on Friday.
“I am pleased with the progress our program has made in
the community, in the classroom and on the ﬁeld,” Franklin said in a statement. “I look
forward to diligently working
with President (Eric) Barron and Director of Athletics
Sandy Barbour on implementing a plan that puts our University and our student-athletes in
the best position to compete
on the ﬁeld and in life.”
Franklin replaced Paterno’s
successor, Bill O’Brien, in
2014. The Pennsylvania native
was 24-15 in three seasons at
Vanderbilt before taking the

Penn State job.
Last season, the Nittany
Lions responded from a ragged
and injury-ﬁlled start with a
nine-game winning streak that
included a come-from-behind
victory in the Big Ten championship game against Wisconsin. Franklin was Big Ten
coach of the year.
“James and his staff have
done an exceptional job with
our football student-athletes
and in all aspects of the football program,” Barbour said.
“His values are Penn State’s
values and they resonate
throughout every member of
the organization and team he
has built.”

Browns coach Jackson clarifies comments on anthem protests
BEREA, Ohio (AP)
— Browns coach Hue
Jackson said comments
he made earlier in the
week about players
protesting during the
national anthem were
misconstrued.
Jackson was criticized
— most notably by
Hall of Famer Shannon
Sharpe — for appearing
to discourage his players
for displaying any form
of protest prior to games.
Jackson wanted to the
focus to remain on
football, saying “I would
hope we don’t have those
issues.”
Sharpe, now a TV
commentator, and others
lambasted Jackson, who
went 1-15 in his ﬁrst
season as Cleveland’s
coach.
Following the team’s

ﬁnal training camp
practice Thursday,
Jackson said “I’ve been
carrying this for about
two days” and then read
a prepared statement to
clarify his remarks.
Jackson said the
Browns and every
other team in the NFL
“should reﬂect what is
good about America
— our diversity, our
race, gender, sexual
orientation, ethnicity,
religion, as well as equal
opportunity.” He said he
understands there are
issues much broader than
a football ﬁeld currently
in the U.S., and knows
that individuals “will
react in many different
ways.”
“My personal feelings
are that over the last
season we have seen

Tony Dejak | AP

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson, right, talks with
quarterback Brock Osweiler during practice at the team’s training
camp in Berea, Ohio. Jackson said Friday that his comments about
players protesting during the playing of the national anthem were
misconstrued by commentators such as television’s Shannon
Sharp.

players come under
unfair scrutiny for
protesting during the
anthem, mainly because
the focus has become on

whether or not a player
is being disrespectful
to the ﬂag or military
and not on the issue
and cause attempting

to be addressed by
the protest,” he said.
“The intent of my
comments was not to
discourage individual
expression from our
players in light of a cause
that moves them to
personal expression. I’m
disheartened that I gave
anyone that impression
because I did not speak
with enough clarity.
However, my words did
reﬂect my concern that
I would express to any
player about protesting
during the anthem.
“There are many
effective ways athletes
can utilize their platform
if they so desire. But
I would respect any
individual decision
as hopefully it would
be the player’s choice
after much thoughtful

dialogue.”
Earlier, Browns
cornerback Joe Haden
thought Jackson’s
comments had been
twisted by some. Haden
said Jackson’s message to
the team was that it was
OK for them to protest,
but he wanted to know
when and why they were
doing so.
“He just wants to be
informed and he doesn’t
want to be caught off
guard with it, so if
people feel that way, go
up to him, talk to him
and have a conversation,”
said Haden, who added
he has no intention to
protest. “He’s not saying
he doesn’t want to do it,
he just doesn’t want to
be surprised at a game.
He just wants to be
informed.”

Gio Bernard. Dalvin
Cook has also taken an
early lead over Latavius
Murray with the Vikings.
This is another situation
that could be a headache
for fantasy owners, but
Cook’s upside makes him
an excellent target.
Injuries
Every year, injuries are
among the biggest story
lines of training camp.
Keep an eye on injured
players such as Jay Ajayi,
who has been in the
concussion protocol for
two weeks. Jordan Reed
is in a similar situation
as an early round selection that has been limited
or nonexistent in camp
thus far. We are still a
few weeks away from
meaningful football, but
lingering injuries are
worrisome, especially
if you are investing an
important draft pick into
said player. Take Andrew
Luck’s shoulder injury,
for example. It is not certain that he will even be
ready for Week 1. If Luck
misses time, you need
to downgrade the entire
offense. Then there are
injuries that end players’
seasons before they even
start, like Ryan Tannehill.

was the worst umpire in
the league.
Manfred said he met
with West after his comments became public and
they agreed a three-day
suspension was appropriate.
“Unfortunately Mr.
West decided he didn’t
want to live up to that
agreement,” Manfred
said. “I assume in consultation with the (World
Umpires Association),
given the statements that
they’ve made, and we
had to proceed in a different way.
“But I did have a very

The umpires’ union
announced West’s suspension and said it
strongly disagreed with
the decision. It is seeking
the restoration of West’s
lost salary.
A message was left

CHICAGO (AP) —
Major League Baseball is
having conversations with
the players’ association
over possible rule changes designed to speed the
pace of play, and Commissioner Rob Manfred
said Thursday he hopes
to reach an agreement
instead of implementing
any measures unilaterally.
Manfred also said
the Bruce Sherman-led
ownership group trying
to purchase the Miami
Marlins has presented the
league with a ﬁnancial
structure that would work
for ﬁnalizing the deal, and
he expressed conﬁdence
that a major league franchise can be successful
in the market. Speaking
at the conclusion of the
owners meetings, he also
expressed surprise with
veteran umpire Joe West’s
reaction to his suspension
for his comments about
Texas Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre.
The average time of
a nine-inning game is a
record 3 hours, 5 minutes
this season, up from 3
hours last year and 2:56
in 2015, Manfred’s ﬁrst
season as commissioner.
Management proposed
making changes for this
year, such as installing
pitch clocks and limiting trips to the mound
by catchers, but players’
association head Tony
Clark said his side would
not agree. The league
can implement changes
by itself with one-year
advance notice.
“We met with Tony
Clark and a group of players last week,” Manfred
said. “The tone of those
conversations have been
very positive. Hats off to

Steelers’ LB Shazier
returns to practice
LATROBE, Pa. (AP) — On a day
when the Pittsburgh Steelers were set
to break camp and return home, inside
linebacker Ryan Shazier was just glad to
be back on the ﬁeld.
Shazier fully practiced during the
Steelers last day in Latrobe after missing the previous two weeks with a slight
hamstring pull.
“I was telling the guys on the sideline
that I was so thankful to be back in the
mix,” Shazier said after Friday’s practice. “It was great to be back out there,
running around and seeing football
from the inside of my helmet instead of
from the sideline.”
Shazier said he isn’t playing in the
team’s second preseason game on Sunday when the Steelers host the Atlanta
Falcons. Though he admitted to feeling behind, the fourth-year linebacker
believes he can catch up.

“I missed a lot of reps in camp this
year, so I’m trying to do everything I
can to improve,” Shazier said. “I haven’t
tackled anybody in camp, so you have
to get used to tackling people and the
feel of getting banged up and getting in
the grind with everybody.”
That’s equally important with a new
partner on the inside.
Shazier played his ﬁrst three seasons
alongside Lawrence Timmons, but
he left for Miami in free agency. His
replacement, Vince Williams, isn’t new
to the Steelers, but he’s new to the fulltime starting job after primarily spending his ﬁrst four seasons as the team’s
top backup.
“I feel really comfortable with Vince,”
Shazier said. “At the end of the day,
you’re going to need reps with your
partner on the ﬁeld, but honestly I don’t
think I need as many as I did before.”

Keselowski closing truck team
partly because of the finances

60720824

BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) — Brad Keselowski is closing his truck series team
at the end of the season, a decision that
in part came down to him losing money
on the venture.
Brad Keselowski Racing has ﬁelded
trucks in NASCAR since 2008, and
more than a dozen young drivers have
come through his organization. His
team has won nine Camping World
Truck Series races and twice contended
for the championship. Keselowski ﬁelds
two full-time Fords — for Chase Briscoe
and Austin Cindric — and has about 50
employees.
Yet Keselowski has not turned a proﬁt
on his passion, and has said before he
loses $1 million a year on the program.

Red Horse Racing also suspended its
truck operations in May.
“There wasn’t really one reason, but
certainly at some point every business
needs to have some proﬁtability,” Keselowski said Friday at Bristol Motor
Speedway. “But I never went into it
expecting to make money, so I can’t
really blame that. Everybody is losing a
little, but that was one of the factors. I
wouldn’t say it was the only one.”
His father, Bob Keselowski, was a
Truck Series team owner until 2005.
“The Truck Series is truly special to
me given my family’s ties to the history
of the sport, and this decision comes
with much contemplation,” Keselowski
said.
