GALLIA COUNTY — Each spring the Gallia County Convention and Visitors Bureau visits local schools to host their Tourism 101 workshop and though the circumstances are different this spring, the workshop continues. Due to being unable to visit schools this spring, the Bureau has decided to share this activity with the public so students learning from home will have the opportunity to take part. As a special twist, students who submit a completed event worksheet to the Bureau will have a chance to win a Sprinkle and Pop E-gift card. The contest is open to grades K-2; 3-5; 6-8; 9-12 and a winner from each grade group will be chosen by the GCCVB staff on April 27. According to the GCCVB press release, “By using fun games and activities, the workshop teaches students how tourism affects our community. The most popular activity amongst students is the ‘event planning’ activity which teaches students how local events impact our community and how much effort goes into organizing an event. In this activity, students use their own interests to create an event that would bring visitors to Gallia County by answering prompts that outline their event. According to Assistant Director Kaitlynn Halley, “The workshop is one of my favorite programs that we do with our community’s youth. Their ideas are so creative and fun, we’ve had Mac n’ Cheese Festivals to Fortnite Competitions. I’m glad that we can offer this to students despite the COVID situation.” Halley said she’s done the Tourism 101 workshops since she started with the Bureau in 2016. The information for the content was sent to both City and County schools. Interested students can find the activity on the Gallia County Convention and Visitors Bureau Facebook page @visitgallia or by emailing the GCCVB, info@visitgallia. com. Completed worksheets must be submitted by April 27 at noon.

Mildred Alexander Malcolm worked as a stenographer for the United States Pentagon before teaching in the Washington, DC public school system for almost half a century. She provided administrative services at the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament Church and Chevy Chase Baptist Church concurrently into her early nineties. We were blessed to learn many valuable lessons from Mildred during her 99 years. She was always the first to offer help. She made certain that every school child who crossed her path was safe, healthy, and happy. She routinely brought meals to the home of sick neighbors. If you feel the urge to spend money, Mildred would not want anyone to spend money on her. Instead, she would be tickled pink if you planted roses or a magnolia tree in a garden since those were her favorites. She will be remembered for her unselfish love for family, the poor, commitment to her Christian faith and kindness to the thousands of young minds her life has touched. She lived a full and happy life. The family encourages you to do the same.

There are 256 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On April 19, 1993, the 51-day siege at the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas, ended as fire destroyed the structure after federal agents began smashing their way in; about 80 people, including two dozen children and sect leader David Koresh, were killed. On this date: In 1775, the American Revolutionary War began with the battles of Lexington and Concord. In 1912, a special subcommittee of the Senate Commerce Committee opened hearings in New York into the Titanic disaster. In 1933, the United States went off the gold standard. In 1943, during World War II, tens of thousands of Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto began a valiant but ultimately futile battle against Nazi forces. In 1945, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “Carousel” opened on Broadway. In 1951, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, relieved of his Far East command by President Harry S. Truman, bade farewell in an address to Congress in which he quoted a line from a ballad: “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.” In 1977, the Supreme Court, in Ingraham v. Wright, ruled 5-4 that even severe spanking of schoolchildren by faculty members did not violate the Eighth Amendment ban against cruel and unusual punishment.

In 2005, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of Germany was elected pope in the first conclave of the new millennium; he took the name Benedict XVI. In 2013, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-HAHR’ tsahrNEYE’-ehv), a 19-year-old college student wanted in the Boston Marathon bombings, was taken into custody after a manhunt that had left the city virtually paralyzed; his older brother and alleged accomplice, 26-year-old Tamerlan (TAM’-ehrluhn), was killed earlier in a furious attempt to escape police. Ten years ago: The U.S. and Iraq claimed a major victory against al-Qaida, saying their forces had killed the terror group’s two top figures in an air and ground assault on their safe house near former President Saddam Hussein’s hometown. Kenya’s Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot (CHEHR’-ee-aht) won the Boston Marathon and broke the course record with a time of 2:05:52; Ethiopia’s Teyba Erkesso won the women’s race in a time of 2:26:11. Five years ago: Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man, died a week after suffering a spinal cord injury in the back of a Baltimore police van while he was handcuffed and shackled. (Six police officers were charged; three were acquitted and the city’s top prosecutor eventually dropped the three remaining cases.) THEIR VIEW Remember the farmer’s perspective I have to apologize; the quarantine has given me too much time to think and too little to do. This overthinking and underdoing have led to a surplus in opinion which has always led to writing for me (sometimes they’re even worth reading). In our region and Appalachia as a whole farming has always been crucial to our existence. For decades we did not have the luxury of supermarkets and families grew at least a portion of their food sourcing the rest from neighbors. You may not raise hogs, but you had bacon every now and then. This created an agrarian culture that was predominantly self-sufficient. We didn’t need the outside world because we were tough and made do with what we had. If you didn’t know how to tend cattle or start a garden, you got “ahold” of someone who did and learned hands on. There were no “Google machines” or “Alexa boxes” to ask how you till earth and weed tomatoes.

In a region where affordable housing has been a scarce commodity for years, these new crises are making housing stability even more precarious. Fortunately, many counties in the region are addressing these challenges by rescheduling all eviction hearings for future dates when the pandemic will hopefully have passed. In addition to preventing groups of people from gathering in the courthouse and potentially spreading COVID19, these continuances also preserve housing for people at a time when staying home appears to be our best weapon against the virus. In counties where the courts are declining to reschedule eviction hearings, tenants should be aware of the limited protections available under the CARES Act, which was recently passed by the federal government. The Act prevents the filing of new evictions for non-payment of rent from federally subsidized housing or housing with a federally backed mortgage. Determining which properties are or are not covered by the Act can be complex, so if you are facing eviction during this public health crisis you should seek legal counsel. We are hearing many heartening stories of landlords working with tenants to waive rent payments or enter into delayed payment plans, in the hopes that stimulus money and unemployment compensation may be able to step in as wage replacement. If an agreement or payment plan cannot be worked out, tenants should beware of any attempt by a landlord to circumvent the legal process and illegally evict them. A landlord is not permitted to lock out a tenant on their own without a court order, and doing so could make the landlord liable for damages. If a landlord threatens or engages in this type of activity, the tenant should call local law enforcement and seek legal counsel immediately.

GALLIPOLIS — We at Ohio Valley Publishing went back through our archive to see where the Sunday Times-Sentinel started in celebration of local journalism history and to look back at something familiar in these presently unfamiliar and uncertain times. This copy originally ran in the Oct. 15, 1990 bicentennial collector’s edition of the Gallipolis Daily Tribune. Since 1818, Gallipolis and Gallia County have had 18 newspapers. Only two have survived. One is the Gallipolis Daily Tribune, founded in 1893. The other is the weekly Sunday TimesSentinel which began as The Gallia Times on June 1, 1898. Although the Sunday Times-Sentinel turned 25 on Feb. 6 this year, Gallipolis and Gallia County have had a weekly “Times” publication for 92 consecutive years. The Sunday TimesSentinel was born Feb. 6, 1966, a combination of the Saturday Gallia Times, Gallipolis and Saturday Daily Sentinel, Pomeroy. As of Oct. 14, a “Times” has been published 4,799 consecutive weeks for Gallia Countians since that first issue in 1898. The Times was co-founded by J.W. Booton (1833-1917) and Arthur Harding (18711930) and was first published on the corner of Locust St., and Second Ave., current office of the Wood Insurance Agency, Inc. The weekly has survived many changes of base (six) four major wars, six different ownerships and 10 editors. The late Harry R. Hurn, third editor, said “The Gallia Times was unquestionably called ‘Child of Destiny.’” Continued Hern, who died on April 30, 1961, “It made its debut into an already overcrowded and highly competitive field and has survived them all.” The Tribune, Journal and Bulletin were firmly established, ably edited, supplemented by Vinton Leader and Gallia County News. The infant newcomer was received with no great acclaim by either the public or press. Most prosperous years (before World War II) were in 1920-21, when it was housed in the Universalist Church, now the site of Elliott’s Union 76, 447 Second Ave. The Journal had absorbed the Vinton Leader, and the Bulletin took over both, these merged with the Gallia Times. That increased circulation to 3,500. (Note — During World War II, circulation jumped over the 6,000 mark. Today, approximately 13,000 subscribe to the weekliy which now serves the Tri-County area.) During the paste nine decades, the Times had never ventured far from its origination point — 32 Locust St. It has been located in the Park Building twice, now the law office of Atty.

He relinquished that post in 1938. Charles Barnet held the job four years, until Jim Porter became editor in 1942. Coell Wetherholt became the publisher. Porter remained editor until Aug. 1, 1953. Within the next six years, the Times had four different editors, and one acting editor. They were: Vic Sherow, Brian MacNamara, Fred Read, Dwight C. Wetherholt and John Glancy (acting editor in 1958-59). Present editor is Hobart Wilson Jr. The Times was published on Thursday for a number of years before switching to Saturday on Jan. 12, 1946. The Weekly received statewide ratings under Jim Porter’s leadership in 1949, 1950, and 1951 by the Ohio Newspaper Association’s weekly newspaper show.

The 50 or so guard members will assist with “mission critical functions” at Marion Correctional Facility, said JoEllen Smith, spokeswoman for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. The State Highway Patrol is also helping guard the prison’s perimeter, Smith said. The latest figures show 95 staffers at the Marion prison have tested positive for the virus, more than a quarter of the total staff of about 350. At Pickaway Correctional Facility, where some members of the Ohio National Guard already were sent to supplement medical staffing, 48 of about 340 employees had positive tests. In Marion, 217 inmates tested positive, along with 149 at Pickaway, according to Department of Rehabilitation and Correction data.

The Bengals are widely expected to take the Heisman Trophy winner No. 1 in the NFL draft. The NFL will hold a practice remote draft Monday, three days before the real thing is done in the same way. Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn on Friday did not provide details on the proceedings — except what his team has planned. “We’re going to do a couple internal tests and trial runs here,” Quinn said in a Zoom meeting to preview the draft. “The league is having a mock draft, mock trial run on Monday that we’ll participate in.” Commissioner Roger Goodell ordered all team facilities closed in March, and later required club personnel to conduct the draft from their homes. Because of the reliance on free-flowing communication, the league decided to stage a mock draft to ensure all goes smoothly next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The draft originally was scheduled for Las Vegas, but the NFL canceled all public events last month as a safeguard against the coronavirus. On April 6, Goodell instructed teams on how they should plan to make selections. “After consulting with medical advisers, we cannot identify an alternative that is preferable from a medical or public health perspective, given the varying needs of clubs, the need properly to screen participants, and the unique risk factors that individual club employees may face,” he wrote. Among the technologies needed for the actual draft are team web meetings and a web hookup with the league itself. There also will be phone lines for communicating with other teams for trades, which must See DRAFT | 2B Browns likely to land left tackle with No. 10 pick in draft CLEVELAND (AP) — Andrew Berry knew his first NFL draft as Browns general manager would be special. He didn’t expect it to be unlike any draft before it or likely any again. The 33-year-old Berry couldn’t have imagined he’d be picking players inside a “virtual” draft room while connected by computer with Cleveland’s coaches or watching Commissioner Roger Goodell announce the first-round selections from his man-cave basement in a New York suburb. But the COVID-19 pandemic has forced radical adjustments for everyone. “We feel like we are going to have a good plan and be very prepared,” said Berry, who has been separated from his wife and their 1- and 2-yearold children during most of the virus outbreak. “I do intend to be in Cleveland on draft night, and we will be ready to go.” Berry, believed to be the youngest GM in league history, is hoping to continue a productive offseason for the Browns, who failed to live up to anyone’s expectations last season when they went 6-10 and then went through another coaching and front office purge. Berry has addressed some major needs in free agency, while leaving one sizable hole — starting left tackle. The Browns have spent the past two seasons using a Band-Aid approach at the vital position, which was held down for more than a decade by perennial All-Pro Joe Thomas, who retired before the 2018 season. It’s time to find a permanent fix and luckily for the Browns, this year’s draft is loaded with quality tackles, a class led by Alabama’s Jedrick Wills, Iowa’s Tristan Wirfs, Georgia’s Andrew Thomas and Louisville’s Mekhi Becton, a 6-foot7, 360-pounder brimming with confidence. “I feel I’m the most dominant tackle in this draft,” he said at the combine. “You wouldn’t go wrong picking me.” Truthfully, the Browns can’t go wrong with any of those four, and Berry said last week that he’s not hung up on whether a player is better suited to play left or right tackle. Wills was strictly a right tackle for the Crimson Tide and Wirfs played mostly right tackle. “From my perspective, tackles are tackles,” Berry said. “In terms of guys making the switch, certainly there is an element of muscle memory that needs to be reprogrammed, so to speak, for people who have played one side or the other for a long period of time.” The Browns, who will enter the draft with seven picks, are set at right tackle after signing free agent Jack Conklin to a three-year, $42 million contract. Geek squad With a computer science degree from Harvard, Berry would seem equipped to handle any issue that might arise in the draft. He’s tech savvy. “This is maybe where my particular age demographic is perhaps a little bit helpful,” he said. “We live in the age of technology where we have FaceTime, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and just even picking up the phone and giving people a call. From that perspective, it is different, but it is not a challenge that is insurmountable by any means.” Backup plan The loss of linebackers Joe Schobert and Christian Kirksey in free agency has created a depth and experience problem the Browns need See BROWNS | 2B Steve Luciano | AP file NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will be presiding over a draft during the coronavirus pandemic that will be like no other. GMs think remote draft will alter trading scene By Tom Canavan AP Sports Writer To trade or not to trade? An especially difficult question in this year’s NFL draft? The coronavirus pandemic has forced the NFL to conduct its annual draft remotely, which might reduce the number of times Commissioner Roger Goodell or anyone else announces a trade. General managers around the league said this week the remote nature of the draft will change the way teams move up and down in the order next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Spur of the moment deals might be difficult to engineer with team officials at their homes and not in “war rooms” in their headquarters. It will be nearly impossible to look around the room for a quick consensus. And if a communications connection is lost — IT guys have been working countless hours to make sure that does not happen — or a phone goes dead, what happens? The more likely scenarios for trades are ones that are premeditated. Take for example, the Detroit Lions and New York Giants, who hold the third and fourth picks overall, respectively. Both teams have been listening to offers this week, Lions GM Bob Quinn and Giants counterpart Dave Gettleman have said. “We all have each other’s phone numbers and we all have multiple phone lines. I think there will be the same level of communication because that doesn’t change.” — Howie Roseman Philadelphia Eagles personnel director “It’s something I would very seriously entertain,” said Gettleman, whose team is in position to take a much-needed offensive tackle. The Lions are listening, too. There has been talk of the Dolphins and others jumping up to No. 3 to grab a quarterback — or whatever. “I think just the way the world we’re living in, with this being virtual, I think a lot of those things, if I’m going to do something, I think we’re going to have a pretty good idea Thursday afternoon of where we stand,” Quinn said. “I don’t think I’m going to be making a huge decision on trading the No. 3 overall pick while I’m on the clock, while I’m virtually talking to our head coach and our other personnel.” Gettleman said the trade squeeze would be felt most after the second round. The first round is 10 minutes in length. The second is seven. Rounds 3-6 will fall to five minutes a pick. It drops to four minutes in the seventh and final round. “It’s going to be tight to try to do that, to try to trade back or trade up,” Gettleman said of the final five rounds. “I think what’s going to happen, what this is going to force everybody to do, is do deals before their pick is up. So, let’s say ... one team calls another team and says, `I want to trade up.’ They’ll make a deal off the clock, and then if the guy is there for the team that wants to move up, then they’ll consummate the trade. I think a lot of it is going to be done ahead of time.” Philadelphia Eagles personnel director Howie Roseman said talks between teams have been no different this week than previous years. “We all have each other’s phone numbers and we all have multiple phone lines,” Roseman said. “I think there will be the same level of communication because that doesn’t change.” If he wants to talk to Chiefs GM Brett Veach, he’s just a call or text away. Veach is in a new spot for this draft: The Super Bowl champions are bringing up the rear of the opening round. He won’t be alone at his home. The league allows him and every team to have an IT guy — and a security guard, perhaps to chase away fans who may not like a team’s pick. “One thing that I think every team is most concerned about is just the flow and the effectiveness of communication. If you’re on the clock and you’re working through your scenarios, then you finally come up with, ‘OK, we like this guy,’” Veach said. “(Or) we don’t like any of these trades. Or, we like this trade, and we want to do this trade. ... I think the scenario that we’re all kind of playing through our mind is when you’re on the clock and you’re about to turn a card in, and then with 45 seconds left, a team comes in and presents a really interesting trade.” The NFL will conduct a mock draft on Monday to test whether teams can navigate those lateminute scenarios. What seems certain is LSU quarterback Joe Burrow going No. 1 overall to Cincinnati, then Ohio State edge rusher Chase Young taken next by Washington. After that, how many times will Goodell announce a trade from home? Will fewer deals happen because of this year’s draft dynamics? No doubt, phones will be ringing for three days next week. “If someone calls you up and their chart doesn’t match yours and they make an offer and you don’t think it’s a good deal, you don’t do it,” Gettleman said. “It’s that simple. If both groups are motivated, you’ll come to some kind of conclusion.” �SPORTS 2B Sunday, April 19, 2020 Browns From page 1B to address. It’s unlikely that Clemson’s Isaiah Simmons would slide as far as No. 10, but if he does or if the Browns’ top target at tackle is gone, then this would be an ideal pick. The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Simmons would make an immediate impact behind a defensive line strengthened by the signings of free agents Andrew Billings and Adrian Clayborn. Spread out While Berry anchors the draft from Cleveland, new Browns coach Kevin Stefanski will be 750 miles away in Minnesota. Stefanski and his family had delayed their move until after the draft and the coronavirus outbreak has pushed things back even further. Berry said he’s confident the Browns are ready for whatever may happen in this most unusual draft. “We are going to make sure that we are prepared in any decision-making scenario that we have what we need if there was to be a kind of a Armageddon scenario with power, internet access or something along those lines,” he said. “That is really no different than anything you would experience if you were actually in the building navigating the draft process. I think we are pretty well prepared on that front and have a number of strong contingency plans in place.” Indians’ Francona intrigued by MLB options to start season CLEVELAND (AP) — Indians manager Terry Francona is intrigued by some of the options being thrown by Major League Baseball to start the season at some point. He’s also accepting it won’t look like anything anyone has seen. Speaking from his home in Arizona on Thursday, Francona said he’s confident any decision made by MLB will be guided by safety precautions and that health and wellness — for players and fans — will be the top priority. “If you see baseball at some point, that means that our country is coming back to a sense of normalcy, which is great,” said Francona, now in his seventh season in Cleveland after eight in Boston. “And then for us to have a season, we’re all going to have to be willing to be flexible, because it’s just not going to happen like — you’re not going to have a normal baseball season. It’s just not possible.” Earlier this week, Commissioner Rob Manfred said MLB will “turn over every stone” while exploring the possibilities of having a 2020 season. One of the plans being discussed is basing all 30 teams in the Phoenix area and using spring training ballparks as well as Chase Field (home of the Diamondbacks) as well as college facilities for games. The concept would mean games in empty stadiums, something Francona couldn’t have imagined but now understands could be necessary. “MLB has done a really good job of explaining, ‘Hey, if and when we play, it’ll be appropriate to play. We’re not going to take away from other people, and certainly the safety of our players and their families comes into play,’” Francona said. “We’re going to have to be willing to make some — whether concessions or be flexible — because it’s just not realistic that we’re going to start playing in Cleveland right away. It’s just not going to happen.” Draft — not very much,” Quinn said. “But I’m staring at a TV to my right. I have three monitors to my left, I have two laptops. I have a huge what we would call our ‘draft phone,’ I have my home phone. I have two cell phones, and I have a printer. So that’s kind of my setup that I’m looking at right now. “We can’t obviously replicate our draft board in my office here, so all the draft boards, needs boards, all of those things will be emailed, printed, they’ll probably be screen-shared on some platform that we’re still evaluating … to use next week. Then we’ll have redundancies on everything.” Security will be paramount, considering the possibility of crossed communication lines that allow one club’s personnel to hear discussions of another team’s decision makers. “The league allows an IT person to be present at your house and a security guy there just in case people don’t like your picks, they’re not knocking on your door or ringing the doorbell,” said Brett Veach, general manager of the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. One logistical concern involves the flow of information and ability to communicate when teams are on the clock. There could be complications if a team has settled on a player and is about to make a selection to end a round. “I think the scenario that we’re all kind of playing through our mind is when you’re on the clock and you’re about to turn a card in,” Veach said. “And then with 45 seconds left, a team comes in and presents a really interesting trade. When you’re in the office, you can look to a guy (and quickly discuss the offer). “Just making sure that we don’t have a slow connection at 45 seconds. So, that’s a little bit of a concern, just that lastminute trade that you get the phone call on the clock.” The NFL is planning to give teams some options in such scenarios, as well as for any technical difficulties that arise. “I don’t think they’re trying to have teams be in a compromised position where they’re losing picks or teams are jumping up ahead of them,” Veach added.

The longtime general manager offers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick’s AllPro season in 2019 as proof. The Steelers made an uncharacteristically aggressive move last September when they sent their top selection in the 2020 draft to Miami for Fitzpatrick, whose arrival turned Pittsburgh’s defense into one of the NFL’s best. It doesn’t matter that the move left the franchise without a first-round pick for the first time in more than a half-century, particularly considering how the COVID-19 pandemic upset the typical evaluation process. “Under the current circumstances, the uncertainty of a player you might be taking, and not have all of the information you’ve had in the past, I’m a lot more comfortable knowing that we got an All-Pro player with that pick,” Colbert said. Meaning the Steelers will spend the first night of the draft as spectators unless Colbert finds a compelling reason to come up with a way to crack the top 32. He’s not banking on it. “We’ll never say we won’t trade into any given round or trade out of one,” Colbert said. “I think it’s highly unlikely that we can come up with any type of package to get back in the first round.” Barring a move, Pittsburgh will have to wait until the middle of the second round to be on the clock. Where Colbert and coach Mike Tomlin decide to go could say a lot about where they view the team heading into 2020. The Steelers managed an 8-8 season despite losing quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for the year at halftime of Week 2 because of a right elbow injury that required surgery. Roethlisberger, who turned 38 in March, is on track for a full recovery. Still, neither Mason Rudolph nor Devlin “Duck” Hodges made a compelling case that they’re ready to be Roethlisberger’s eventual heir. While Colbert and Tomlin both say they’re comfortable with Rudolph entering 2020 as the top backup, they may be tempted to use the 49th overall pick on someone such as Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts or Georgia’s Jake Fromm. Taylor made? Quarterback depth isn’t the only area where the Steelers could benefit from a talent upgrade. Running back James Conner is entering a contract year and the fact the Steelers opted not to approach the 2018 Pro (740) 446-2342 or fax to (740) 446-3008 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN ANIMALS Livestock Angus Bulls and Heifers top performance and blood lines priced reasonable.

Conner has topped 100 yards rushing just once in his past 15 games and struggled to stay healthy for much of his three years in the league. Colbert is confident Conner can be an impact player in 2020, but admitted it might be time to look around. Wisconsin star Jonathan Taylor’s mileage might be higher than most backs coming out, but that didn’t stop the Steelers from drafting Le’Veon Bell — who fit a similar profile — back in 2013. “It’s our job to make sure we have options and alternatives and competition ready to go, and that’ll be what we’re working on,” Colbert said. Inside job Devin Bush was just as productive as advertised when the inside linebacker finished with 109 tackles, two picks and a sack as a rookie. Bush and veteran Vince Williams are entrenched as the starters, but the decision to release Mark Barron and let Tyler Matakevich walk in free agency leaves the group behind Bush and Williams thin. Very thin. Holding the line The offensive line that served as the linchpin during the “Killer Bs” heyday of the mid-2010s is starting to show its age. Ramon Foster retired in March and left tackle Alejandro Villanueva, center Maurkice Pouncey and right guard David DeCastro are all 30 or older. The Steelers chose to tender a contract to long-term project Zach Banner, and Chukwuma Okorafor remains an intriguing prospect. But, with the rosters expanding this season, finding more raw material to work with is a priority. Wide open Pittsburgh has used one of its first three picks on a wide receiver in each of the past three drafts. There’s a chance the Steelers could make it 4 for 4. JuJu SmithSchuster’s numbers took a serious dive in 2019 thanks in large part to health issues, Roethlisberger’s extended absence and Antonio Brown’s departure. James Washington made small strides in his second year and Diontae Johnson flashed good hands as a rookie. Still, there’s little behind them and adding a field stretcher is a must after opponents limited the team to just 10.2 yards per reception, the franchise’s lowest since 1998.

But in a clear sign that at least some of the 259 remaining regularseason games that were not played because of the coronavirus pandemic will not be rescheduled, the league announced Friday it will withhold 25% of player pay starting with their May 15 checks. Silver, speaking after the league’s regularly scheduled April board of governors meeting — one that took place through video conferencing and not the usual in-person setting in New York — said all options remain on the table for trying to resume play and eventually crowning a champion. “I think there is a sense that we can continue to take the leading role as we learn more in coming up with an appropriate regimen and protocol for returning to business,” Silver said. “There’s a recognition from (owners) that this is bigger than our business; certainly, bigger than sports.” The salary decision was made in concert with the National Basketball Players Association, the league saying it would “provide players with a more gradual salary reduction schedule” if games are officially canceled or the rest of the season is totally lost. Players will be paid in full on May 1. The cutback in salary has been expected for some time in response to the NBA’s shutdown that started March 11, and has no end in sight. Silver said the league will weigh several factors as it continues to try to save the season, among them whether the infection rate of COVID-19 comes down nationally, the availability of large-scale testing and progress on the path toward a vaccine. “All these team owners are in this business because they love the game,” Silver said. “They love the competition, and I know from my conversations with players they feel the same way. But when you’re dealing with human life, that trumps anything else we could possibly talk about. That’s really where the conversation began and ended today.” Team owners and NBA officials heard from Disney chairman Bob Iger during the call to discuss his company’s response to the pandemic, as well as from Dr. David Ho of Columbia University.

It’s the third time in the history of the draft that the top two picks were teammates in college. “To go 1-2 with Satou is a really cool feeling and shows all the hard work we went through this year paid off,” Ionescu said. “Really proud of her and what we were able to do as teammates and excited to see her future in the pros.” Lauren Cox went third to Indiana and Chennedy Carter was the fourth pick by Atlanta. Dallas took Bella Alarie with the fifth pick. The Princeton star was only the second Ivy League player to be drafted that high. Harvard star Allison Feaster was also selected fifth in the 1998 draft by the Los Angeles Sparks. South Carolina players Mikiah Herbert Harrigan and Tyasha Harris went sixth and seventh to Minnesota and Dallas. The Gamecocks finished No. 1 in the AP poll this season. Chicago chose Ruthy Hebard with the eighth pick — marking the fifth consecutive season and ninth overall that three college teammates were taken in the opening round. “Really shows what kind of environment we had at Oregon,” Sabally said. New York took UConn’s Megan Walker with the ninth pick. Phoenix picked Jocelyn Willoughby of Virginia 10th. Seattle took former South Florida star Kitija Laksa with the 11th pick and New York closed out the first round drafting Jazmine Jones from Louisville. New York, which was the first team ever to have five of the first 15 picks in the draft, selected Jones’ Louisville teammate Kylee Shook at 13 and Duke’s Leaonna Odom at 15. The Liberty also made two trades after the draft, acquiring Willoughby for Shatori Walker-Kimbrough. New York also traded Erica Ogwumike, who they drafted in the third round, to Minnesota for Stephanie Talbot. The WNBA tried to create a draft like experience for the players, sending them a care package with hats of all 12 teams, a WNBA sweatshirt, confetti and a few other items. Cox’s sister doused her with confetti after her name was announced. “It was really fun and we made the most of it,” Cox said. Coaches and general managers were spread throughout the country and world, so they set up virtual war rooms instead of gathering in their own team facilities. Let’s go to the videotape: ‘Hoosiers’ No. 1 AP Top 25 film “Hoosiers” shot all the way to No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 of best sports movies, a one-of-a-kind poll from the news organization known for its rankings of college teams. Released in 1986 and starring Gene Hackman, “Hoosiers” led the tally in results released Friday, receiving 46 votes from a 70-person global panel of sports writers and editors who work for the AP. “If you put your effort and concentration into playing to your potential, to be the best that you can be, I don’t care what the scoreboard says at the end of the game,” coach Norman Dale, Hackman’s character, says in the top-ranked movie. “In my book, we’re gonna be winners.” And in this case, they were. Loosely based on an Indiana high school basketball team in the 1950s, “Hoosiers” narrowly edged Academy Award Best Picture honoree “Rocky” — released in 1976, it was the first installment of Sylvester Stallone’s series about an unknown boxer from Philadelphia who gets a shot at the big time — and “Bull Durham” — starring Kevin Costner and Susan The Field of Hope continues to serve our community while implementing all guidance from the CDC and other state and local organizations regarding the COVID-19 response.

Here for You OH-70183508 NEW YORK (AP) — Oregon star Sabrina Ionescu was the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft, as expected. When she’ll play for the New York Liberty is unclear. With sports on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic, it was a draft Friday night like no other with players in their own homes instead of a central location, Commissioner Cathy Engelbert announced selections from her home in New Jersey, holding up the jersey of the player being chosen. “Of course it was different than what I had expected, and just excited to be able to be here with my family and the people closest to me and be able to spend this time,” Ionescu said from her home in California. “Making the most out of what’s going on in today’s society. Just really happy to be able to spend this moment with them and excited to have gone through this process.” Ionescu set the NCAA record for triple-doubles and was the first college player to have over 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 1,000 assists in her career. Ionescu was one of three first round picks for New York, which also had Nos. 9 and 12. “I’ve been working for this for my entire basketball career and super excited to see that come to fruition,” Ionescu said. “I’m very humbled Sunday, April 19, 2020 7B �8B Sunday, April 19, 2020 Sunday Times-Sentinel *G�ZPV�BSF�B�17)�QBUJFOU�03�JG�ZPV�OFFE�B�OFX�QSPWJEFS �ZPV�DBO� TDIFEVMF�B�UFMFQIPOF�BQQPJOUNFOU�XJUI�POF�PG�PVS�QSPWJEFST� 1SJNBSZ�$BSF Healthcare Anywhere Our doctors are here for YOU – no matter where you are.
