It seems the overall scheme by defensive coordinators has been to try and contain him in the pocket, where he iS allegedly less dangerous. llowever, as one pundit stated this week, he is a quarterback who plays like a fullback. St. Louis will commit a "spy" to keep tabs on Air McNair. · So who will win this medium market Super Bowl? I like Tennessee because of the toughness they've displayed all season, both on offense and defense. This will be a coming out party for both McNair and George, and veter· an offensive lineman Bruce Manhews will finally get his due. Score: ntans 31, Rams 20.

Ohio (AP) ..-....Not even cold weather and the danger of unstable ice can stop . fishermen from trying to cure their annual case of cabin fever . The sub-zero temperatures have frozen Buckeye Lake, and anglers arc putting up shanties and drilling holes in the ice in hopes of catching a . crappie, bluegill or perch. "We can stay out there 10 more days, I'll bet , if the weather stays like they say,'' Newark fisher man Brady Trout told The (Newark) Advocate for a story this week. ,Buckeye Lake, in Licking County about 25 miles east of Columbus, provides fishermen the chance to partake .in their. favorite pastime yearround . · But Park Manage( Edward Frank said fishermen must take care because the icp they're standing .on may not be thick enough. '.'Realistically, we never tell anyone it's safe to go out there," Frank said. uBecause it's never truly safe." . · . . Frank said the park recommends fishermen make sure there is a minimum of 5.5 inches . of, clear ice beneath them before casting their line, but even .that amount doesn't guarantee s;~fety. Fifteen inches could even be unsafe if there are air poc·kets in the ice. Adding to the danger is that the depth of the ice can vary dramaticall~ · from one spot to another, he said. There were about 25 people on the ice Sunday, but ·that .number figures to be niuch higher this weekend as snowmobilers and ice skaters take advantage of the extended cold weather. "Before the end of the week, I'd virtually guarantee we'll have somebody go into the water,'' Frank said. "Somebody's going to.get .wet ." Frank said although he's not aware of any Ohioan being prosecuted for being o.n dangerously thin ice at a stale park, it could be considered disorderly cohducr. . "I have the right lo prote'ct you if you won't . protect yourself,'' he said. Terry Davino, of Newark, said he aqd Trout drilled a h.ole near the bank to find out the depth before heading out. "If there's just an inch, you would have time to get back on the bank," Davino .said. · Once they figured it was safe, Davino and Trout ~~i.t.~.~·-,·~··*·~'··· JER~Y .~ BLUE DEVILS Jackson (3-10, SEOAL 2·8) shot in the second quarter, outscoring 43.2 percent (16-of-37) from the Jackson 11-7 to build a ~17 half· field, including 1-of-14 from three- time lead. point range.

Ohio (AP) ..-....Not even cold weather and the danger of unstable ice can stop . fishermen from trying to cure their annual case of cabin fever . The sub-zero temperatures have frozen Buckeye Lake, and anglers arc putting up shanties and drilling holes in the ice in hopes of catching a . crappie, bluegill or perch. "We can stay out there 10 more days, I'll bet , if the weather stays like they say,'' Newark fisher man Brady Trout told The (Newark) Advocate for a story this week. ,Buckeye Lake, in Licking County about 25 miles east of Columbus, provides fishermen the chance to partake .in their. favorite pastime yearround . · But Park Manage( Edward Frank said fishermen must take care because the icp they're standing .on may not be thick enough. '.'Realistically, we never tell anyone it's safe to go out there," Frank said. uBecause it's never truly safe." . · . . Frank said the park recommends fishermen make sure there is a minimum of 5.5 inches . of, clear ice beneath them before casting their line, but even .that amount doesn't guarantee s;~fety. Fifteen inches could even be unsafe if there are air poc·kets in the ice. Adding to the danger is that the depth of the ice can vary dramaticall~ · from one spot to another, he said. There were about 25 people on the ice Sunday, but ·that .number figures to be niuch higher this weekend as snowmobilers and ice skaters take advantage of the extended cold weather. "Before the end of the week, I'd virtually guarantee we'll have somebody go into the water,'' Frank said. "Somebody's going to.get .wet ." Frank said although he's not aware of any Ohioan being prosecuted for being o.n dangerously thin ice at a stale park, it could be considered disorderly cohducr. . "I have the right lo prote'ct you if you won't . protect yourself,'' he said. Terry Davino, of Newark, said he aqd Trout drilled a h.ole near the bank to find out the depth before heading out. "If there's just an inch, you would have time to get back on the bank," Davino .said. · Once they figured it was safe, Davino and Trout ~~i.t.~.~·-,·~··*·~'··· JER~Y .~ BLUE DEVILS Jackson (3-10, SEOAL 2·8) shot in the second quarter, outscoring 43.2 percent (16-of-37) from the Jackson 11-7 to build a ~17 half· field, including 1-of-14 from three- time lead. point range.
