Sarah Hawley | Sentinel

Captain David Neigler (left) and Firefighter Ian Wise (right) from the Racine
Volunteer Fire Department accepted a check from Chief Deputy Bill Spurgeon of
the Ohio Fire Marshal’s Office representing the $300,000 no-interest loan which
is to help with the purchase of a new pumper truck.

RACINE — The Racine
Volunteer Fire Department
has been approved for a
$300,000 loan to assist with
the purchase of a new pumper truck for the department.
On Friday, Chief Deputy
State Fire Marshal Bill Spurgeon presented a $300,000
check to Racine Volunteer
Fire Department Captain
David Neigler and Fireﬁghter/Council President Ian
Wise to represent the money
awarded through the Small
Government Fire Department
Services Revolving Loan Program.
The money is not a grant,
but a no-interest loan which

must be paid back by the
department/village.
The revolving loan program was created by the Ohio
General Assembly to assist
local governments in funding
certain major expenses for
ﬁre departments, including
ﬁreﬁghting, rescue or EMS
equipment.
The new pumper truck,
custom designed for ﬁre
departments by the manufacturer, was ordered last week
and will cost approximately
$511,000. In addition to the
$300,000 loan, the department is working with Home
National Bank for an additional loan, as well as utilizing funds they have saved up
for the purchase from fundraisers and activities.

GOP assail aide who reported Trump phone call
By Lisa Mascaro
and Mary Clare Jalonick
Associated Press

grounds for removing the
45th president. Republicans have argued both
that there was no linkage
between the two matters
and that there is nothing inappropriate even if
there was.
Vindman, an ofﬁcial
at the National Security
Council, testiﬁed alongside Jennifer Williams,
his counterpart at Vice
President Mike Pence’s
ofﬁce. Both said they had
concerns as Trump spoke
with the newly elected
Ukrainian president about
political investigations
into Biden.
Trump insists Zelenskiy
did not feel pressured and
has cast the impeachment
probe as a partisan affair
aimed at pushing him
from ofﬁce.
It wasn’t the ﬁrst time
Vindman was alarmed
over the administration’s
push to have Ukraine
investigate Democrats, he
testiﬁed.
He highlighted a July
10 meeting at the White
House when Ambassador
Gordon Sondland told
visiting Ukraine ofﬁcials
they would need to “deliver” before next steps — a
meeting Zelenskiy wanted with Trump.
“Ambassador Sondland
referred to investigations
into the Bidens and Burisma in 2016,” he testiﬁed.
On both occasions,
Vindman said, he took his
concerns about the shifting Ukraine policy to the
lead counsel at the NSC,
John Eisenberg. Republicans later criticized him

IN BRIEF

Tribes win waste suit
BOISE, Idaho (AP) — A U.S. appeals court has
ruled that a Philadelphia-based agribusiness company that left millions of tons of toxic waste on
tribal land in Idaho must pay the tribes nearly $20
million plus $1.5 million annually.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday
upheld a lower court ruling against FMC Corp.
involving a now-shuttered Idaho plant that turned
phosphate into fertilizer.
For about 50 years until 2001, FMC operated
the fertilizer plant that produced 22 million tons
of waste stored on the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes
Fort Hall Indian Reservation.
The company contended in one of its arguments
that it wasn’t obligated to pay the $1.5 million
annual permit fee to the tribes for storing the
waste after closing the plant. A judge called that
argument “ludicrous.”

2 officers shot, wounded
MONROE, Mich. (AP) — Two police ofﬁcers
were shot and wounded Tuesday as they investigated a reported assault at an apartment complex
in southeastern Michigan, authorities said.
Both ofﬁcers were shot in the legs as they
responded about 9 a.m. to a call about an assault
involving a man working at the complex and a
resident, who had a holstered handgun, Monroe
police Chief Charles McCormick said.
State police are investigating. Lt. Brian Oleksyk
said there was a physical confrontation between

NY joins Juul suit
NEW YORK (AP) — New York has joined the
ranks of states suing the nation’s biggest e-cigarette maker, Juul Labs Inc., saying the company
used deceptive marketing practices to reel in
young users.
Attorney General Letitia James announced the
lawsuit Tuesday against San Francisco-based Juul
Labs Inc. It alleges the company contributed to
a youth vaping epidemic using misleading sales
tactics on popular social media sites. The suit also
alleges that Juul advertising touted e-cigarettes,
which contain nicotine, as a safer alternative to
traditional cigarettes.

Vindman opened his testimony by assuring his
father he would be “ﬁne
for telling the truth.”
Yet Vindman spent long
stretches ﬁelding Republican attacks on his loyalty
to the U.S. and his career
in public service. The
Republicans’ lead counsel
asked at one point about
an offer to Vindman from
a Ukrainian ofﬁcial to
become the country’s
defense minister.
Vindman called it “comical” and said he swiftly
reported it up his chain of
command.
“I’m an American,”
Vindman said. “And I
immediately dismissed
these offers.”
Later Tuesday, the
House committee was
hearing from former NSC
ofﬁcial Timothy Morrison and Kurt Volker, the
former Ukraine special
envoy. On Wednesday,

Union, is to appear. Much
of Sondland’s private
testimony to lawmakers

dency, though there is no
indication she has shown
any partisanship. Trump
allies have also repeatedly attacked Vindman’s
loyalty.
Vindman acknowledged
the attacks during his testimony and appeared prepared to defend his loyalty to the United States.
When the top Republican
on the committee, Rep.
Devin Nunes, addressed
him as “Mr. Vindman,”
the colonel reminded him
to address him by his
rank.
Republicans tried to
prompt the witnesses to
name the still-anonymous
whistleblower.
Nunes asked them who
else they talked to about
their concerns, bearing
down once Vindman
acknowledged one was
from the intelligence
community. The whistleblower is a CIA ofﬁcial,
according to people with
knowledge of the matter.
Vindman said he does
not know who the whistleblower is. He has previously said it is not him.
Trump ally Jim Jordan
pressed Vindman if he
ever leaked information.
“Never did, never would,”
Vindman testiﬁed.
Vindman is being

the impeachment inquiry
has been unclear.
Vindman said Trump’s
remarks strayed from the
talking points prepared
for him. And both witnesses noted the use of
the word “Burisma” on
the call. That was a reference to the gas company
in Ukraine where Hunter
Biden served on the
board.
They both said Zelenskiy had mentioned
“Burisma” on the call, but
testiﬁed it was missing
from the rough transcript
released by the White
House.
At the time of the call,
the ofﬁcials were just
beginning to make the
link with the stalled military aid — $391 million
approved by Congress—
that Ukraine was relying
on as it confronts neighboring Russia.
Vindman said the

and the U.S. made the

U.S. Army and local law
enforcement, according
to a U.S. ofﬁcial. The ofﬁcial said the Army is prepared to take additional
steps, if needed, including
moving Vindman and his
family to a more secure
location on a base.
Williams, a career State
Department ofﬁcial who
has worked for three presidential administrations
and counts former Secretary of State Condoleezza
Rice a “personal hero,”
said the Trump phone call
was the ﬁrst time she had
heard anyone speciﬁcally
seeking investigations
from Ukraine.
The reference to Biden
and his son Hunter
“struck me as political in
nature.”
Williams testiﬁed the
Trump phone call was
unlike about a dozen
others she had heard
from presidents over
her career. When the
White House produced
a rough transcript later
that day, she put it in
Vice President Pence’s
brieﬁng materials. “I just
don’t know if he read it,”
Williams testiﬁed earlier

interview.

WASHINGTON — A
career Army ofﬁcer testiﬁed Tuesday that President Donald Trump’s
call with Ukraine was
“improper,” as Republicans tried to undercut the
national security ofﬁcial
with pointed exchanges
questioning his loyalty to
the U.S. during a remarkable day in the impeachment hearings.
Arriving on Capitol Hill
in military blue with medals across his chest, Lt.
Col. Alexander Vindman
told lawmakers it was
his “duty” to report his
concerns about the call.
But he deﬂected repeated
Republican efforts to
divulge everyone he told
about it — thwarting
Trump allies’ attempts
to identify the anonymous whistleblower who
spurred the impeachment
probe.
Vindman, a 20-year
military ofﬁcer who
received a Purple Heart
for being wounded in the
Iraq War, was among the
ofﬁcials who listened in
to the July 25 call when
Trump asked Ukrainian
President Volodymyr
Zelenskiy for a “favor” —
investigations of Democrat Joe Biden and other
issues.
“Without hesitation,
I knew I had to report
this,” Vindman told the
House Intelligence Committee. “It was inappropriate, it was improper
for the president to
demand an investigation
into a political opponent.”
The testimony
launched a pivotal week
as the House’s historic
impeachment investigation reaches further into
Trump’s White House.
Democrats say Trump’s
pressure on Ukraine to
investigate former Vice
President Joe Biden while
withholding U.S. military aid to Kyiv may be

THEIR VIEW

Recalling the
Thanksgiving
snowstorm of 1950
It seems to me that the recent record-breaking
taste of winter has brought on memories of past
classic snowstorms. I suppose we all have our
own recollections of blizzards and
near-blizzards but the one that truly
stands out for those of us who were
around at the time is the Thanksgiving snowstorm of 1950. It was truly
historic for several reasons. Here’s
the story from a couple who experienced it.
Bill
My Sweetheart-for-Life and I were
both home from college (different
Taylor
Contributing schools) to spend the Thanksgiving
columnist
break with our families - and each
other - in Marion, Ohio, a town
about 45 miles north of Columbus.
Thanksgiving Day was unremarkable with the
usual holiday meal and activities, but the next day,
Friday November 24th, the storm hit with snow,
wind, and very cold weather - giving way to what
has been identiﬁed as the biggest snowstorm in
this state’s history.
Winds increased to over 40 mph and temperatures dropped to near zero. The storm worsened
on Saturday November 25th so that by nightfall
nearly the entire state had over 10 inches of snow.
Most communities in the eastern half of Ohio
measured 20 to 30 inches of snow with drifts of 25
feet deep requiring bulldozers being used to clear
the roads for emergency vehicles - but that’s not
the only reason we recollect this “weather event”
so clearly.
You see, the annual classic Ohio State-Michigan
football game was scheduled for Saturday afternoon in Columbus with the Big Ten championship and a trip to the Rose Bowl on the line. Ohio
State, the University of Michigan, and ofﬁcials
from the Big Ten considered canceling the game
because of the extreme conditions, these entities
decided to play the game. The reason? If the game
had been canceled, Ohio State would have won the
Big Ten title by default. So with a Saturday morning temperature of 5 degrees and winds of 40 mph
(a wind chill factor of about -30F) what became
known as the “Snow Bowl” was played in Columbus with more than ﬁfty thousand in attendance at
the game - talk about fans!
Five inches of snow had already fallen before
the kickoff, and more snow fell during the game.
Almost all plays were runs as players slipped and
fell on the ﬁeld, unable to gain their footing. Both
teams usually punted after two downs, in case the
punter fumbled the ball due to the cold. That way,
if the offense recovered the fumble, it would have
fourth down to attempt to punt again.
Workers had to repeatedly sweep the lines on
the ﬁeld so that the game could continue. Would
you believe Vic Janowicz, the Ohio State legendary
“triple-threat”All-American, punted twenty-one
times for 685 yards - and also kicked a ﬁeld goal
for the only Ohio State points. Michigan forced
a safety for two points and recovered a blocked
Janowicz punt for a touchdown. The travesty
ended with Michigan winning the game and the
Big Ten championship by a score of 9-3.
Although the game was over the storm continued. The Michigan team left Columbus by bus on
its way north to Ann Arbor despite the weather.
This effort came to a halt in Marion as the roads
became impassible. The team found shelter at
the Hotel Harding, the largest, most modern, and
best hotel in Marion. According to my Mom who
worked at the hotel, there was quite a scramble to
provide accommodations and, likely more difﬁcult,
food for this large contingent of unanticipated
guests but somehow everything worked out. Yep,
although the Michigan team had denied Ohio
State a trip to the Rose Bowl, they were treated as
honored guests seeking shelter in a storm.
The storm ﬁnally subsided, the roads were
cleared, the Michigan football team resumed their
journey, our colleges reopened, we went back to
school, and folks’ normal winter lives continued.
Big Ten football champion Michigan went onto
the 1951 Rose Bowl and defeated the California
Golden Bears, champions of the Paciﬁc Coast
Conference, by a score of 14-6.
Well, that momentous snowstorm of Thanksgiving 1950 has now passed into the dusty annals of
history as has the celebrated “Snow Bowl” but for
those of us who lived through that unforgettable
weekend these events will always be stored in our
memories just waiting to be resurrected. At least
that’s how it seems to me.

Dailey honored for military service
MIDDLEPORT —
Local resident Paul Dailey was recently honored
at the Middleport Church
of Christ for his 24 years
of military service.
Dailey was among
those recognized in
observance of Veterans
Day.
Dailey, who is a Meigs
County native and serves
as an assistant football
coach at Southern, served
for 24 years in the United
States Army, retiring as
a Chief Warrant Ofﬁcer,
CW3. Dailey joined the
U.S. Army Reserves as
Military Police in 1989,
where he hoped to “get
some discipline” in his
life. When his mom,
Kathy, expressed concern,
he told her not to worry,
“the whole world would
need to be at war before

I’d get called up”.
In 1991, Dailey was
called up for Operation
Desert Shield/Desert
Storm where he processed and transported
thousands of Iraqi prisoners of war.
After graduating from
Muskingum College in
1992, he switched from
the Army Reserves to
active duty, working his
way up from military
police road cop to a military police investigator
and later on a federal law
enforcement agent.
In 1995, Dailey was
recruited to join the
Army’s Criminal Investigations Division (CID)
as a federal agent. He
served in this position
from 1995 until his
retirement in 2012.
During his service,

State participants meet Legion Ladies Auxiliary
Staff Report

ROCKSPRINGS — Two Buckeye
Girls State participants recently met
with the American Legion Post 39
Ladies Auxiliary.
Due to prior commitments, Hannah Faluisi and Haylie Blankenship
were unable to meet with the Legion
Ladies Auxiliary earlier in the year
when other participants attended,
leading to the Nov. 12 meeting.
Auxiliary President, JoAnne Newsome and other auxiliary ladies welcomed them. Even after all this time
since they spent a week at Buckeye
Girls State they were excited to be
telling about their time there. They
said they had fun and had learned a
lot and made a lot of good friends.
They both held ofﬁces and also told
of many fun and funny activities
they participated in. Hannah and her
roommate have made plans to attend
each others graduation party even
though they live three hours away.
Hannah is planning on attending
Washington State and wants to go
into social work.
Haylie said she had been accepted
to three of the colleges she applied to
but is waiting to hear from the one
she really wants to go to. She plans to
be a lawyer.
The girls readily answered many
questions and it was obvious that they
had a really great time at Girls State.

Johnson, Auxiliary Historian.

He encouraged the
involvement of youth in
the schools to drive interest and enthusiasm for

While they are competing against departments from much larger

that Columbia Twp.
has the support of
many locals and that is
important not only for
this contest, but for the
department as a whole
as it serves the local
community.
McCollum said the
department is always
looking for grants, contest and other ways to

burdening the township’s residents. With no
cost to enter or produce
the video, McCollum
said the contest is one
such opportunity.
The Columbia Twp.
Volunteer Fire Department serves the 36
square miles of Columbia Township, while also
offering support to ﬁre
departments in Scipio
Twp., Salem Twp. and
Albany. In addition, the
department has a volunteer emergency squad
that responds to calls
all over the county as
requested by EMS.
Rau said the message of the contest is to
encourage people to have

a plan when the smell the
“rotten-egg odor of natural gas”.
The three steps are,
“Stop what you’re doing;
Leave the area immediately; and Call 911 and
Columbia Gas from a safe
location.”
He added that it is
important to have an
emergency plan in place
for where to meet and
who to contact in the
case of an emergency.
While one winner will
be selected for the cash
prize, Rau said everyone

to spread the natural gas

“I am very glad Columbia Township and the
other departments are

participating in getting
this important message
out,” said Rau.

Browns take first steps without suspended star Garrett
BEREA, Ohio (AP) — On a shelf in his
locker just below where Myles Garrett
keeps his collection of miniature model
dinosaurs, his orange helmet sat unused.
It’s going to stay that way for a while.
As Garrett begins his indeﬁnite suspension from the NFL for swinging a helmet
and striking Pittsburgh quarterback
Mason Rudolph in the head, the Browns
took their ﬁrst steps Monday in a season
that as of now will not include their best
defensive player.
Garrett’s ban, which pending his appeal
on Wednesday includes at least the ﬁnal
six regular-season games and the postseason, is a major setback for the Browns
(4-6). They are 2-0 in the AFC North for
the ﬁrst time and were ﬁnally gaining
traction after a slow start.
Now, another hurdle, perhaps the biggest one yet.
“We have a resilient bunch of guys,”
ﬁrst-year coach Freddie Kitchens said as
the team started preparing for Sunday’s

game against Miami. “They have accepted
the challenge every week. It seems like it
has been something different every week.
That is the way football seasons are,
though.”
While the Browns regroup and refocus,
they’re still grappling with emotions in
the aftermath of Garrett’s stunning loss
of control, an on-ﬁeld incident that has
dominated discussion around the league
and on social media for days.
Garrett’s actions have not been condoned by any of the Browns players, but
defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson
believes Rudolph bears at least some
responsibility for what happened. After
being taken down by Garrett after a pass,
Rudolph unsuccessfully tried to pry off
the Pro Bowler’s helmet and kicked at
him. Once he got to his feet and lost his
own helmet, Rudolph kept charging Garrett.
“It’s on camera what he’s doing,” Richardson said. “There’s no hiding it no mat-

ter what he says in the media.”
Rudolph was not suspended but will
likely incur a stiff ﬁne. Richardson said
that’s not nearly enough. In his view, Garrett was defending himself.
“Of course he was,” Richardson said.
“If a guy scratching at your face, what you
going to? The helmet was overboard, let’s
get that clear. But defending yourself, I
don’t blame him for defending himself at
all.”
Richardson said Rudolph escalated the
incident by grabbing Garrett’s face mask
and attempting to pull his helmet off.
“You can’t antagonize a ﬁght and then
claim bullying, you get what’s coming to
you,” Richardson said. “Of course Myles
overreacted. … He was protecting himself.
I don’t blame him. Guy keeps rushing me,
even with the helmet off, he’s asking for
it. Just leave it at that.”
The league also suspended Browns

CINCINNATI (AP) —
Midwest. West Coast.
East Coast. Two continents. Two quarterbacks.
Three months.
The Bengals’ losing
streak has spanned the
globe and persisted deep
into the calendar, landing
them in the team record
book for futility.
They’re now ofﬁcially
one of the worst clubs in
franchise history, only the
second to open a season
0-10 and the third to lose
10 straight games in a
season. They’ve dropped
12 straight from the
end of last season under
coaches Marvin Lewis
and Zac Taylor, a teamrecord losing streak over
consecutive seasons.
A 17-10 loss in Oakland
on Sunday also left them
with 17 losses in their
past 18 games overall, the
worst such stretch in franchise history.
They have a chance to
stamp themselves as the
worst of the bunch Sunday when they host the
Steelers, their Ohio River
rival that always ﬁnds a
way to beat them. Pittsburgh has won nine in a
row against the Bengals
and 12 of 13, including a
ﬁrst-round playoff victory
at Paul Brown Stadium
during the 2015 season.
The Bengals are in
a very deep rut, facing
the same questions each
week about whether
they’ve got it in them
to ﬁnally get a win. The
inexperience of rookie
quarterback Ryan Finley
has shown in his two
starts, helping to extend
the losing streak. It now
appears that 0-16 is a possibility.
“I’ve never been 0-10 in
my life,” running back Joe
Mixon said. “It’s the same
thing each and every
week, and it’s deﬁnitely
frustrating.”
What’s working
The defense is ranked
last in the league and
allowed Derek Carr to
complete all but one pass
in the ﬁrst half as the
Raiders took the lead for
good, but it improved in
the second half and gave
Cincinnati a shot to rally
for that ﬁrst win. The
Raiders had a ﬁrst-andgoal at the 1-yard line and
settled for a ﬁeld goal
that kept it a one-score
game in the fourth quarter. The offense couldn’t
take advantage.
What needs help
Finley hasn’t had
enough time to develop
chemistry with receivers
— he hardly worked out
with the starters before
he was promoted — and
it showed in Oakland,

Randle, Morris guide Knicks over Cavs

From page 6

where he missed on throws
numerous times. Familiarity
comes with practice time,
and the season is running out
as the rookie learns on the
ﬂy.
Key number
88 — The number of possessions before one of their
backs had a touchdown rushing. Mixon’s 3-yard reverseﬁeld run in Oakland ended
the drought. They had only
three touchdowns rushing
coming into the game, all by
Dalton.
Next steps
Decide how long to stick
with Finley, or whether to go
back to Dalton, who gives
them their best chance to
break that 0-for-2019 streak.
When the Bengals switched
to Finley, Taylor said it wasn’t
going to be a game-by-game
decision because the Bengals
wanted to ﬁnd out how Finley ﬁts in their plans for next
season.
On Monday, Taylor left the
door open for another switch.
“Ryan’s our starter this
week against Pittsburgh, and
I have a hard time looking
beyond that,” Taylor said.
“Feel like he’s going to give
us an opportunity to win this
week.”

NEW YORK (AP) — A
week made a big difference for
the New York Knicks.
Julius Randle scored 30
points, Marcus Morris Sr.
added 23 and the Knicks beat
the Cleveland Cavaliers 123105 Monday night to avenge a
21-point home loss eight days
prior. R.J. Barrett added 15
points and Damyean Dotson
had 11 for New York.
In their ﬁrst meeting November 10, the Cavaliers came into
Madison Square Garden and
posted a 108-87 victory. This
time, they never led.
“We got off to a good start,”

Randle said. “I think the start
was everything. We started out
4 of 14 last week and never got
going.”
Kevin Porter Jr. led Cleveland with 18 points. Collin
Sexton and Alfonzo McKinnie
each had 14.
Kevin Love, who had 17
points in the ﬁrst meeting, did
not play due to back tightness,
the ﬁrst game he’s missed this
season.
“He’s a great player, a champion,” Barrett said “Having
him out was, I wouldn’t say
great. But, we didn’t have
Mitch (Mitchell Robinson) last

time so it’s even now.”
The Knicks scored the ﬁrst
four points and never trailed.
Randle had 15 points in the
ﬁrst quarter as the Knicks built
two 16-point leads before settling for a 32-20 advantage at
the end of the quarter.
The Cavaliers pulled within
36-31, but the Knicks followed
with a 24-8 run and took a
60-39 lead on Randle’s 3-pointer with 2:26 left in the half.
Randle had 23 points at
halftime as the Knicks took
a 64-51 advantage into the
break.
Cleveland is also without

Larry Nance Jr., who is out
with a left thumb sprain.
“We were missing two really
good players,” Cavaliers coach
John Beilein said. “We are
not real deep as it is. We were
missing one of our best, if not
our best player, and our power
sixth man. And with a team
that is not deep, that is a really
big difference.”
The Cavaliers never got
closer. The Knicks scored the
ﬁrst six points of the second
half and increased their lead to
90-65 on Dotson’s long jumper
with 3:25 remaining in the
third.

Browns

out some games.
“If you’re going to suspend
Myles indeﬁnitely, I don’t
know, a game or two. A
game?” he said. “Make it sound
like you just can’t be a quarterback and do as you please in
this league. Have some type of
consequences for your actions
as well. I don’t blame Pouncey
for protecting his quarterback.
I’d go overboard for my guys,
too. So nobody’s knocking him
for that. That’s what football
is.”
Kitchens refused to address
whether he felt Rudolph
deserved to be disciplined.
“Everybody here saw the

tape,” Kitchens said. “I am just
here to support. I will support
Myles. Our team will support
Myles. I am not going to get
into that. You saw the tape.”
Kitchens was pressed about
seemingly sending mixed messages: condemning Garrett’s
behavior, but also blaming
Rudolph.
“I never said anything
like that,” he said. “I did not
insinuate anything. I was asked
for a comment, and I was not
making a comment on it. I just
asked if you saw the tape, so
form your own conclusion. I
have my conclusion that I did
not say. There is no excuse for

that to happen on a football
ﬁeld. I know that, Myles knows
that, and all of the players in
the locker room know that.”
Kitchens met with Garrett
on Saturday, and plans to continue reaching out. Garrett, 24
and the top overall pick in the
2017 draft, is not allowed to be
at the team’s facility during his
suspension.
“Myles Garrett’s a good
person,” Kitchens said. “We’re
not going to pile on Myles. He
had a bad lapse in judgment
and that’s it. I’m still a Myles
fan and I’m going to support
him. … Myles is part of our
family.”

Starting over:
Anthony set with
Blazers, jersey No. 00

OVP SPORTS BRIEFS

Youth holiday

violation that could affect the outcome of a game or
games is the most serious matter — it relates to the
integrity of the sport.”
Manfred says of Major League Baseball’s probe: “I
have no reason to believe that it extends beyond the
Astros at this point in time” and adds “I certainly
would hope that we would be done before we start
playing baseball again.”
Discipline could extend beyond ﬁnes and amateur
signings. Manfred says his “authority under the
major league constitution would be broader than
those things, as well.”

RUTLAND, Ohio — The Pomeroy and Middleport Youth Leagues will be hosting their annual
holiday youth basketball tournament for boys in
grades 3-6 and girls in grades 4-6, all separate
divisions, from Wednesday, Dec. 18, through
Saturday, Dec. 28, at the Rutland Civic Center in
Meigs County. To register, or for more information, contact Ken at 740-416-8901 or Dave at 740590-0438.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Carmelo Anthony is
now set with the Portland Trail Blazers and starting
over with jersey No. 00.
Word that the 10-time All-Star had joined the team
broke Thursday night, but the agreement was not
formalized until Tuesday when he signed a nonguaranteed contract that goes through January. If he stays,
the contract becomes guaranteed for the rest of the
season.
It was not immediately clear when he would start
practicing or playing with the team. Portland was at
New Orleans on Tuesday night.
Anthony hasn’t played since a 10-game stint with
the Houston Rockets ended a little more than a year
ago. But the Blazers hope there is enough game left in
the 35-year-old forward to help them overcome a 5-9
start.
“Carmelo is an established star in this league that
will provide a respected presence in our locker room
and a skill set at a position of need on the ﬂoor,” Neil
Olshey, Portland’s president of basketball operations,
said in a statement.
Anthony struggled at the end of his recent stops in
Oklahoma City and Houston following 6 ½ seasons in
New York. He continued to work out with NBA players, and his many friends and supporters insisted he
was still good enough to play in the league.
Now he will get a chance to prove it. Anthony
posted a video on his YouTube channel explaining his
decision.
“I always kept an eye on Portland,” he said. “It just
didn’t work out at other times, but now it seems like
it’s a perfect opportunity.”
Anthony was acquired by the Chicago Bulls from
Houston on Jan. 21, with the intention of trading
him before the deadline or letting him go. He averaged 13.4 points in 10 games with the Rockets last
season, but the team quickly decided Anthony wasn’t
the right ﬁt with the system they play under Mike
D’Antoni.
The three-time Olympic gold medalist can still
score — he ranks among the top 20 on the NBA’s
career list — but his preferred style of doing it has
been replaced by a faster game that exposes his defensive weaknesses.
Anthony was traded by Oklahoma City to Atlanta
in July 2018, a move that preceded the Hawks
releasing him to sign with the Rockets. The Bulls,
technically, were his fourth franchise in seven
months.
Eight of Anthony’s 10 appearances for the Rockets came off the bench after the No. 3 pick in the
2003 draft had started all 1,054 games he’d played
in his ﬁrst 15 NBA seasons. He has averaged 24
points in 16 seasons.

Antonio Brown apologizes
to Pats, team owner Kraft

Browns place starting safety
Burnett on injured reserve

BOSTON (AP) — Antonio Brown has apologized
to the Patriots and team owner Robert Kraft for any
negative attention he brought to the team during his
brief stint in New England.
The four-time All-Pro receiver posted his apology
on Instagram Tuesday.
It comes on the heels of past posts in which he
indicated he’d ﬁght the Patriots’ decision to withhold a $9 million signing bonus. He also reportedly
met with NFL ofﬁcials last week to discuss various
sexual assault allegations against him that could
make him subject to a possible suspension under
the league’s personal conduct policy if he’s signed by
another team.
The Patriots cut ties with Brown in September
following just one game after a second woman
accused him of sexual misconduct — the third team
in less than a year to tire of the off-ﬁeld behavior
that has overshadowed his on-ﬁeld accomplishments.

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Browns have placed
starting safety Morgan Burnett on injured reserve
with a torn Achilles tendon, another setback for
Cleveland’s defense.
Burnett got hurt during Thursday night’s victory over Pittsburgh. He had ﬁve tackles and
an interception against one of his former teams
before leaving in the second quarter.
The loss of Burnett complicates things for the
Browns, who could be without star defensive end
Myles Garrett for the remainder of the season following his indeﬁnite suspension for hitting Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph with a helmet.
The Browns may also be missing defensive
tackle Larry Ogunjobi, who was suspended one
game for shoving Rudolph.
Rookie safety Sheldrick Redwine could get
more playing time now that Burnett’s season is
over. The fourth-round pick out of Miami was on
the ﬁeld for 33 plays against the Steelers.
Tight end David Njoku could ﬁll the open roster
spot. He’s eligible to play this week after being
out since Week 2 with a broken wrist.
