Sanders ready to step upPosted by on November 7, 2012 – 10:08 pm
Emmanuel Sanders shook his head, smiled and promised he won't let it happen again.
"I got brought down by the punter, which is something I am not too happy about," said Sanders. "But I get another opportunity this week."
What Sanders was referring to was an electric fourth quarter 63-yard punt return against the New York Giants in the Steelers 24-20 win, that could have gone for a touchdown if he had not been stopped by punter Steve Weatherford.
His teammates have been teasing him about it, he has been getting on himself for it, and if that isn't enough there is a large photo hanging in the hallway outside the Steelers locker room showing Weatherford getting ready to hit Sanders.
"I am giving myself heat," said Sanders. "I have an alter ego telling me you got downed by a punter. I wish I would have scored. It is something next time I get the opportunity I will make the most of it and score. I have been getting heat all week. They aren't going to let it go until I get another opportunity to take it the distance."
Last week Sanders was forced into action after Antonio Brown suffered an ankle injury in the first half and Chris Rainey injured his ribs in the second half.
"Antonio went down in the first half so right after halftime I went out and caught some punts and got comfortable just in case," said Sanders. "Then when I saw Chris Rainey go down and I knew I was up next. It was a crucial situation and I wanted to make a play to help my team win.
"You are a championship caliber team and when somebody goes down the next guy has to step up and fill that void. You have to play up to the standard. Coach (Mike) Tomlin says the standard is the standard. We live and breathe that. If we want to get to where we need to be and that's Super Bowl champions, through the season guys will go down and guys will have to step in."
The Steelers likely will need Sanders to step in this week against the Kansas City Chiefs, as both Brown and Rainey are still question marks. And while Sanders doesn't know yet exactly what his role will be, whatever it is he will be spending time this week getting ready.
"We are playing on Monday night so I have an extra day to prepare myself," said Sanders. "I have to study a lot. I am going to work hard in practice and stay singularly focused on winning. If the ball comes my way it comes my way, but I am going to do my job, get open and make plays.
"I am excited about the opportunity to help my team win. It's a Monday night game, a lot of fun, great environment. Hopefully I can have a big game as a returner and receiver."

Why not also considering Van Dyke, he is a speedster and can also let Sanders concentrate on receiving in a moment when a weapon like Brown is out ??

As Okaloosa County faces more than $4 million in additional expenses for the coming budget year, officials are scrambling to find new sources of revenue.
In the past month, county commissioners have considered raising property taxes, the local gas tax and levying a local option sales tax.
Now the discussion has turned to franchise fees.
Under that plan, the county would charge the major local utility companies — Gulf Power, Choctawhatchee Electric Cooperative and Okaloosa Gas — a fee for the use of public rights of way.
Support for franchise fees is mixed among the commissioners.
"To me, it's a shell game. … If we levy the franchise fee, it's not going to be the company who pays for it," Commissioner Wayne Harris said at the board's meeting in Crestview earlier this week. "It's going to be the rate users."
Commissioner Kelly Windes agreed, saying he feared a franchise fee would "trickle down and be another tax."
But Commissioner Dave Parisot said the board has no control over whether the utility passes on the charge to customers.
"That's their call," Parisot said during the meeting. "That's not ours. What we'd be implementing with a franchise fee is a charge to the utility company for using our public rights of way, which they are currently not paying a penny for."
Commissioners sent letters to the three utilities in late April to ask if they would agree to pay franchise fees.
Sheriff Larry Ashley also sent letters to the utilities to urge them to agree to the charges. He said franchise fees are the "most logical and equitable revenue enhancement option available" and "desperately needed to sustain many of the county's most critical services."
In the letter, Ashley said a 19 percent budget reduction since 2009 has challenged his agency's ability to provide for the public's safety. He said the reduction has been accompanied by a 14 percent increase in service calls, a 4.5 percent increase in population, a 26 percent rise in violent crime and a 3 percent rise in overall crime in the county.
"I believe this rise in crime is directly attributable and proportional to the continued reduction of our public safety funding," Ashley said in the letter.
He also pointed out that Walton and Santa Rosa counties collect franchise fees, and asked the utilities to "afford our citizens the same benefits you have helped provide the citizens of our neighboring counties."
But Okaloosa Gas, CHELCO and Gulf Power have shown little support for franchise fees. They say any franchise fee assessed by the county likely would get passed on to their customers.
"A franchise tax would cause customers to see higher bill amounts — higher bills that don't have anything to do with their electric service from Gulf Power," Gulf Power spokesman Jeff Rogers said.
Rogers said Gulf Power opposes any fee that doesn't contribute to the quality of the electrical service it provides.
"It also puts Gulf Power in the position of being the tax collector, and it can impact a customer's ability to pay their electricity bill," Rogers added.
Eddie Springle, marketing director at Okaloosa Gas, said the company "is in an evaluation process concerning franchise fees" and plans to release a statement in the next two weeks.
Springle said a franchise fee "could impact the rates of the customers" but that it's too early to know the extent.
CHELCO CEO Steve Rhodes said he understands the "tough fiscal climate facing local governments" but the cooperative must serve the interests of its members.
"CHELCO members are also owners of the not-for-profit cooperative, which means they would end up paying the franchise fee," Rhodes said. "By levying a right of way fee, Okaloosa County commissioners would be imposing a de facto tax on thousands of the cooperative's members.
"Essentially, the county needs to ask our members what they think about the utility fee," he said. "It would be a pass-through to them."
Commissioners are expected to discuss franchise fees and a proposed gas tax hike at its May 21 meeting in Fort Walton Beach.

Coordinator's Corner: Haley & LeBeauPosted by on December 27, 2012 – 3:22 pm
Offensive Coordinator Todd Haley
Re: Heath Miller and Maurkice Pouncey being named to the Pro Bowl:
Obviously, I think, and they both said this to me, they would trade it for more wins and a chance to play some more games. Really, I just think it's a great honor. Both of those guys are very deserving of the award.
When you were hired you gave high praise to Miller. After seeing him play, were you even more impressed this year?
Yeah, he really did [impress me]. I know I said that. I was very excited about getting a chance to work with him. He is just the epitome of the same guy, every day. He is very dependable and reliable. What he does in the run game is what people aren't going to notice nearly as much as the statistics. That's what you don't want people to miss out on, how much he does for us in protections, runs and in the pass game. He is a very unselfish player. You can count on him almost all the time to do what he is supposed to do, and he makes plays when you need him.
Is it difficult to prepare for a game that really doesn't mean anything in the standings?
No. It's difficult the situation we are in. It's hard to accept that we aren't going to get to play more games. This game is our biggest of the week. I think it's very important. It's not a game you want to be in. But like I said to the guys, unless you win the Super Bowl, you never get many chances in the playoffs to end the season on a winning note. We have to take advantage of that. I've been places where I really believed it carries over. It changes your mindset and overall mood going into the next few months, and you come back. I think a win in the last game or the last two games, whatever opportunity you have has a springboard effect for you. That's what we need to do, get this going in a positive direction to finish the season.
Re: Pouncey's career thus far and how he's the only center in NFL history to be selected to three straight Pro Bowls to start his career:
He's a football player. I mean that in a way – when he came out of college, if you just relied on his timing, speed and his combine numbers, he'd be just another guy. But when the pads are on, he's special. His football playing ability at his position doesn't add up to the measurables, so to speak. It comes down to, when you are evaluating these guys, they better be good football players. He is just that. I didn't know that about him. That's even more impressive. We see it every day. You just don't want to take it for granted, because he is special. He is a really smart player. He helps a bunch of other guys. He is very athletic. When his pads are on, he allows you to do things you wouldn't be able to with other players at his position.
What did you learn this year about the Steelers and about this offense?
I think there is no substitute for experience. Having a year under my belt in a new place is a big item, because you have a lot to go by now, whether it's going to the Senior Bowl or Combine, the role we have as coaches, and our opinion counts as we move through the draft. Those things, you get a much clearer picture of your needs, at least on offense. You have a much clearer picture of the players. I personally have a much better feel for all of the coaches, who I didn't know very well when I came here. There is no substitute for experience, and then it's about what you do with it. I believe we will just do nothing but get better, which is what we have to do.
Re: Ben Roethlisberger saying one full offseason would be beneficial to the offense:
I think change is difficult. It's not always the easiest thing, because it's not always comfortable and you have to adjust. That goes for all parties involved. This case, for me, the players and coaches, it's not easy but that doesn't mean it's not right. Coach Tomlin made a change. I was fortunate enough to be the guy that was chosen. You want to make your boss right, and I believe we will. A year of experience working together, all of us, I think is priceless.
Before this season, you hadn't called the plays in three years. Is it hard to get back into the groove after having such a long layoff?
No, I think somebody asked me that earlier this season. I think that it's something that I am very comfortable doing. There was an adjustment early. Some of that was just the operation of who is in the box, how you are communicating and who is giving you the necessary information that you have to have quickly. We worked through that in the preseason. In the regular season, I think operationally we were really good for the most part. There are always calls that you'd like to have back. You just don't want that number to be off the charts. I felt very comfortable in that role. We just need to do a better job as a group, and we will.
Re: Possibly exploring a head coaching position if one opened:
Really, it's not anything that I am thinking about. I have said a bunch of times, even when I came in and sat down with Coach Tomlin early on, this is where I want to be. I have almost three years of experience doing that. And I will occasionally say to Coach Tomlin, "This is a lot more fun than what you have to deal with." In some ways, it is, because you get to coach and work with the players on a daily basis and interact all the time. It's the closest thing to being out there, being able to be in this position. I am happy being here, and I just want to finish this year in the right manner to push us into the offseason, and get ready to be better next year.
Defensive Coordinator Dick LeBeau
Re: Having no Pro Bowl selections from the defense:
I think it's an injustice but that's all. I'm not wasting any sleep over it. It is what it is. Our guys numbers testify what they've done. I'm proud of them and certainly some of them deserve to be in the Pro Bowl, but they're not. You've got to win more games.
Will you be back next season?
That would be up to Coach [Mike] Tomlin. Let's just say I really like Pittsburgh and I really like working for the Steelers. Coach Tomlin will tell you if he wants me back or not. It will be up to Mike.
Do you want to come back if you're chosen to come back?
I love Pittsburgh.
Have you ever seen a team go through so many injuries?
I think it's been an unusual year for that. Injuries are part of the game. You have to persevere through those. I think our guys fought through them. We needed to win a few more of those close games. It has been a very unusual year in that respect.
Were the ACL injuries as prevalent when you played, or even early in your coaching career?
I think there had been joint injuries. They're very vulnerable in the game of football and the more they can do to protect them, the better off it is. I think they have always been probably the most common injury in the game.
Guys played through those injuries years ago.
They'd just tape an aspirin to our leg and tell us it was okay. [Laughs]
Despite the injuries, you have a chance to finish as the top defense against the run, against the pass and overall. How have you been able to do that?
The players have made the plays and created the numbers that give us an opportunity to do that. We've certainly made them aware of that. That is one of our goals in this game. The first goal, of course, is to win the game. But you don't get a chance to do that very often and we're looking forward to the opportunity to do it.
Re: The defense being able to get off the field now, as compared to when it struggled to do so earlier this season:
Well, the truth of the matter is we didn't get off to a really good start on defense. I don't think it was ever quite as bad as it was perceived to be but we weren't playing the way we wanted to play. For, I'd say over a month and a half now, our third down numbers have been good. We got a little behind early in all phases, but these guys stayed together and played pretty doggone good defense and got us back to where we like to be, up near the top of the bunch.
So, the coach got smarter as the year went on?
Yeah, the better the players play, the smarter the coach is. There's no question about that.
Re: NT Casey Hampton's performance after rebounding from an injury:
Well not only Casey, but James Harrison missed all the coaching sessions. He missed all of training camp. [Jason] Worilds missed all of training camp. We had three pretty productive players for us that really couldn't get football exercise until we started into the regular season. I think all of those men made steady improvement and I think the results are obvious in the performance of our team. But Casey, for two months now we've seen him make an awful lot of plays. Probably the one statistic we've come the furthest in was the run advantage in yards allowed per rush. We know Casey is always going to be a big part of that. I think all those guys getting stronger and some of the young guys that had to transition into new roles, they got stronger as we went along and I'm very proud of this group for staying with it and fighting through a slower start than we wanted. We would like to have played better, but they played hard and played fairly well here from the midpoint of the season on.
Re: Thoughts on losing veteran players who have accomplished so much here:
They're family and you're always going to miss your family. Fortunately, they come back. [James] Farrior was back a few times. Aaron [Smith] drops back over every now and then. Chris Hoke we get to see from time to time. This is the nature of this business also. There's a 16-game season and that group of athletes, in all probability, is going to be the only time that all the men in that room are going to be together. That's why it's always a special situation with each year and each game. I don't think it's ever happened where the same people from top to bottom in that room have returned. It's a vision of life in the NFL. But we miss them. We miss those guys. They know we think of them all the time.

A MAN who discovered a 48-year-old bar of Kendal Mint Cake in his loft believes it may be the oldest-surviving bar of the famous confectionery.
Peter Truelove, 68, of Windermere, bought the bar of Robert Wiper's Original Mint Cake when he and a friend visited Kendal as 21-year-olds in 1964.
The pair were on a 'boy's adventure' which took them from their homes in Kent to John O'Groats, the most northerly point on the Scottish mainland.
"We travelled the distance in an Austin 7 and it took us a week," said Mr Truelove, of Hill Top. "The car only did 35mph at best and it was blizzard weather – the snow was coming into the car.
"We called at Kendal on the way back and we'd heard about the mint cake, so when we saw some we thought we'd buy a bar."
Mr Truelove said he was not sure why he had kept the bar in a box in his loft.
"It was on a shelf as a memento of the trip but it's been in the loft since we moved to Windermere 16 years ago," he said. The bar is still in reasonable condition although some of the sugar is seeping through the wrapping.
Although the original Wipers recipe is still used, the company was sold to Romneys in 1987.
Managing director John Barron said: "We have been making it all these years and I don't think we have any that old – it's impressive.
"It wouldn't do him any harm to eat it now but I don't expect it would taste very nice."
Mr Truelove said what was also interesting to discover was the journal he wrote while travelling, which documented the stop-off in Kendal. He said: "I had to record everything we spent because my friend and I were splitting the cost of the trip. It's funny now to look back and see that someone offered to sell us a car engine and gear box for £2.50, and that 15 litres of petrol was 60p.
"Unfortunately, the price of the mint cake wasn't included, although I did write that we'd visited and purchased it."

Those seeking Anchorage vacations will find many convenient flights to Anchorage from airports all over the world. Alaska is an amazing place to visit and there is no shortage of things to do and see. However, those looking for cheap hotel deals in Anchorage, AK are advised to consider traveling during the spring or fall when prices are down in Anchorage hotels as well as in many Alaskan resorts in other parts of the state. Because of the seasonal nature of Alaskan tourism, cheap deals can be tough to find during the summer and winter months, and the best hotels in Anchorage are often booked solid for months on end.
Travelers who want to stay in a downtown hotel will find a variety of top-quality Anchorage, Alaska hotels to choose from. The city's best restaurants are located in the downtown area, and visitors who book a stay at a downtown Anchorage hotel can find everything they need within walking distance. However, most tourists want to see something of Alaska besides the downtown district, and can easily do so by taking advantage of car rentals in the area.
There are many pet friendly hotels located within the city limits of Anchorage, and Anchorage has an abundance of dog parks scattered throughout the city. Those opting for a stay at a downtown hotel will have easy access to the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail, which is known as one of the most beautiful trails in the nation. Even those visiting Anchorage without dogs to exercise will enjoy proximity to this gorgeous natural wonder. Mt. McKinley looms above the city on clear days, and the raw energy of the wilderness can be felt even in the downtown area of Anchorage.
Travelers who are looking for historic hotels won't find traditional east-coast style Victorian architecture in Anchorage. What they'll find instead is the Alaskan version of historic hotels -- large log structures with loads of rustic charm. This type of place is more likely to be found, however, at remote resorts and fishing lodges than among standard Anchorage hotels.
Business travelers will find several good airport hotels near Ted Stevens International Airport.

Gil J. Wolman developed cut-up techniques as part of his lettrist practice. Also in the 1950s painter and writer Brion Gysin more fully developed the cut-up method after accidentally discovering it. He had placed layers of newspapers as a mat to protect a tabletop from being scratched while he cut papers with a razor blade. Upon cutting through the newspapers, Gysin noticed that the sliced layers offered interesting juxtapositions. He began deliberately cutting newspaper articles into sections, which he randomly rearranged. Minutes to Go resulted from his initial cut-up experiment: unedited and unchanged cut-ups which emerged as coherent and meaningful prose. South African poet Sinclair Beiles also used this technique and co-authored Minutes To Go. Argentine writer Julio Cortazar often used this technique in his book Hopscotch.
Gysin introduced writer William S. Burroughs to the technique at the Beat Hotel. The pair later applied the technique to printed media and audio recordings in an effort to decode the material's implicit content, hypothesizing that such a technique could be used to discover the true meaning of a given text. Burroughs also suggested cut-ups may be effective as a form of divination saying, "When you cut into the present the future leaks out." Burroughs also further developed the "fold-in" technique.
Burroughs has cited earlier works as proto-cut-ups: T. S. Eliot's long poem, The Waste Land, and portions of John Dos Passos' works. In 1977, Burroughs and Gysin published The Third Mind, a collection of cut-up writings and essays on the form.
Other musicians working in sample-based music genres, such as hip hop and electronic music, employ a similar technique. DJs may spend hours in record stores looking ("digging") for LP records featuring obscure or interesting breaks, vocals, and other fragments to meld together in new compositions. Musique concrète had introduced such techniques — cutting, re-arranging and re-editing sounds — much earlier in a musical (as opposed to literary) context.
Jeff Noon uses a similar remixing technique in his writing based on the practices prevalent in Dub music. He expanded upon his remixing with his Cobralingus system, which breaks down a piece of writing, going as far as turning individual words into anagrams, then melding the results into a narrative.
And to return to Tzara's Dadaist example, Thom Yorke applied a similar method in Radiohead's Kid A (2000) album, writing single lines, putting them into a hat, and drawing them out at random while the band rehearsed the songs.
In the film Downtown 81, the band Tuxedomoon can be seen performing using a similar method of reading phrases from cut-up papers.
An online subculture of bastard pop resembles the fold-in technique by for example taking instrumentals from one artist and combining it with the vocals of another artist.
Burroughs taught cut-up technique to Genesis P-Orridge in 1971 as a method for "altering reality". Burroughs' explanation was that everything is recorded, and if it is recorded, then it can be edited (P-Orridge, 2003). P-Orridge has long employed cut-ups as an applied philosophy, a way of creating art and music, and of conducting one's life.
American band Interpol uses a similar technique in their video for the song The Heinrich Maneuver. In the video you see a woman who walks in slow-motion until she is hit by a bus and around her you see a handful of people who watches as it happens but in different time zones. A good example of this is a man running from behind trying to warn the woman then stopping once he sees that she's hit and all the while the woman on the picture is only half-ways.
Even grammatically consistent sentences can be formed, such as
Such text is called spamoetry (spam poetry) or spam art. Since the text is often derived from actual books, this is effectively a cut-up method.
A class of programs called "travesty generators" exist to perform similar cut-up techniques on user-supplied text. Many such programs exist as web-based applications (see External Links).
In the graphic novel Watchmen, Ozymandias watches rows upon rows of televisions, each set to a different channel, to "[allow] subliminal hints of the future to leak through."

Great idea Janice, I need to have a quiet word with you at the QS meeting sometime about that, I tried to start mine the other night, made a right mess of it.
The wool looks gorgeous, if it knits up anything like the socks you made for me, you will be happy I know as they are so soft.
Do you prefer knitting to Quilting?

With the season veterans that we have I think we have good leadership. You gotta do and that's look. One key element of that leadership faces linebacker Brian Orakpo return after missing most of the 112 season it's more. Won the possible. Well I know the the other part of the defense is also excited to get them back in. He's got a great attitude it's followed all the doctors. We need Brian Orakpo.

And his work was completed on the skins are you training facility in Richmond there will still be plenty of work players need to do in Tampa. their spot on the roster coach Shanahan from the beginning is one of competition and we're gonna have an excellent competition at a lot of positions.

Bryce Harper historically struggles in San Fran
Mon, 20 May 2013
Csnwashington.com. Bryce Harper that San Francisco is one of his favorite places to play. That may be the case but he's struggled a hit there so far in his young career has won 43 batting average at AT&T park is his third worst. At any ballpark in baseball. Joining me now as I and that's insider mark Zuckerman mark let's start with Bryce Harper how important. Is his presence to the line up right now. It's really important cordoning. Do that often struggles they've had a lot of it is attributable. Being out mall adjacent worked out people at the two of them in the to get there once in the last eighteen. Harper the most productive hitter. The loss of work an injury has been just as beaten. Good and giving it it is of course the collective one teaching. With the 200 spot for an awful and not put anybody on base for. We're in there and broke him right in. Absolutely but one guy who hasn't been struggling right now as Adam LaRoche what's been his secret to his recent six sacks. Well you know if this goes back to a little especially with chipper Jones and Atlanta at the beginning of the former rival but also former teammate as it is when he played Chipper knows his swing started he stepped it up with a deep in Houston and it but until with a career high hitting streak. I think I the pressure off and for awhile is looking just to go the opposite he is. The last few days he seemed to turn a ball and really get to that just you know. And the right that huge difference that it was going in there and going to do you know. As long to get harper back it'll be quarter but it can be used to edge. CSN Washington dot com.

I said I think everybody is in trouble right now a lot of critics are gonna think that I'm. Still haven't seen this but I one with a little something left or not. When Gary turned the corner and we got that little bit a spurt on the lead change.

Beltway Baseball: Why Strasburg will be just fine
Thu, 9 May 2013
CSN Washington dot com. Are welcomed the beltway baseball here on CSN Washington dot com on chase Hughes and mark Zuckerman. And mark we've been through a month and a few weeks or overly down here. And the nationals as a team having kinda inconsistent but one thing that is really travelling fans and people around league starting to notice is it consistency of Stephen Strasburg. The numbers aren't that far off from what we've seen but it anyone who's watched him over the last few years and tell maybe there's something something a little bit off he's having trouble finding the strike zone. What do you make of the situation and do you think it is that they concern yeah I mean the thing is like you said the numbers don't look. It that far off feeds the pitching. for big league pitcher but he set such a high bar for so we've come to expect so much. Patted him it just doesn't quite look like what you expected the biggest thing is fastball command. You know he's not. Throwing strikes getting ahead in the count. The way it did it was so amazing about him as a rookie when he came back originally from the Tommy John surgery was the fact that. He could be a power pitcher while still having excellent coming that deadly combination. Just not quite there yet. Curve balls still excellent still excellent. I think you're seeing signs of improvement I think he's getting there but he still working on to think that it's mechanical mostly. And they they seem to determine and it's not physical it's mormons and you can see it on the on the field he's the body language that. He's impatient he gets frustrates easily and this just a matter of him being such a perfectionist. He's not used to not being great. He's used to being great not just good right exactly and I think that's that next step and take if he's really gonna become an ace of the World Series contender. It's about hey it doesn't matter what happens behind him Doesn't matter what run support I the umpire and I'm gonna go out I'm gonna beat no matter We're seeing there and do that right now I think it's time for Strasburg if he really wants to become an elite. Top. The line pitcher. That's what he needs you now quickly another guy who's had trouble as you can also I think might be a little bit more of a concern is his command has been quite there. I think it's curve ball isn't quite as sharp as it was last year this is something that might he might work out the kinks out. But he has been pride stuff yeah I mean an more erratic certainly had some fantastic start and that's really troubling ones I think his last start Pittsburgh may have been a turning point for them. Got a huge jam in the first inning lead off home runs very first pitch then he loads the bases. Nobody out. Battle back and get out six straight after that I can almost see a little something clicked inside and minutes that. Maybe this you Ozzie admitted afterwards and younger version him would have melted there. Let it spiral out control. That might be assigned an comes back next time that made it a big turning point mark let's talk about the catching situation we're moving through May and so far Davey has. Rotated kind of alternated and depending on the edge depending on the he said that at some he's gonna have to make a decision we saw over the weekend go back to back with Ramos. At some point. Maybe you and you think we're gonna see him go with the primary catcher I think so maybe not a true number one in the and a guy you know catching you know once or twice a week and I think he does. Number one wanna play the hot hand whoever it is. I think he hopes its problems he understands that everyone understands. That Wilson Ramos has higher ceilings and Kurt Suzuki put the whole package together offensively defensively he can do more so I think you're gonna start to see that. It Suzuki gets hot they'll play obviously. I think the preference be for to ultimately take over. I went into the numbers last week how the pitching staff has done with Suzuki and For some reason everybody but you done way better with over the past few seasons in their career ERA is. Are better with him in their career marks I don't I don't know I can't tell you why that is but that's the case yeah and I the pictures all insist they'll have both guys I don't know if there even where it. Yzerman tops they had success with Suzuki and it's amazing stats that would certainly something overtime that you have to look him. Now as we're getting close to the middle of may what we take stock with the division first the Braves came out really hot out of the gate. It was it was really at the point were you thinking all right who's gonna slow him down or what's gonna slow them down they didn't seem to have a weakness whatsoever. The nationals. Meanwhile your 500. But as they're starting to get things going they're not that far behind it could be much worse at this point oh absolutely mean if the nationals. Figure that April was their worst month but that's as bad against them they're going to be all right because they hover around 500. And the rays came back to earth and what's it was gonna happen next maybe not. To this extent you're surprised by that we're gonna play 900 ball. All right I think it was twelve and when you start here to me what's interesting is all of a sudden they're closer Craig Kimbrel. Most dominant closer in baseball last year and the first month this year he's blown three saves in days yeah giving up home runs. That's. Staggered problem right there I mean who knows just a blip. Or something long term about but also without Johnny Panthers won their top. Setup men and PG beaches and come back and just came back Heyward been out for a while there. BJ Upton knocked off to a good start the play and they got a lot of weapons are they're going to be good. Long term but they may not be quite easily as we and BJ Upton has been really bad and having having gas was really early on but. he's not looking like the next Mike Capps at this point about one thing I think it's interesting as the two best guys I think in their offense have to look at the numbers today. They've been Justin Upton and Chris Johnson who of course were with the team much yeah exactly they talk on all the offseason moves it made it mentioned Johnson as much damage in the Upton Brothers that night do you think getting Freddie Freeman back to deal with me that isn't fantastic all around first baseman. The Braves are going to be fine long term this can make good race really do believe that. CSN Washington dot com.

PEORIA, Ariz. Yasmani Grandal's career begins now.
The view of what he has done previously is muddied by too much testosterone and whatever the heck else he put in his body to make him bigger, stronger and faster. But we're not in a holding pattern either, waiting for May 28 and the 51st game of this season.
Right now, Grandal's career, his legacy, his rehabilitation has started.
It wasn't necessarily a great beginning to decline to answer questions from the media on Saturday. But neither was it as detrimental as some would lament.
Words are ridiculously cheap. We need to see Grandal's remorse, not hear it.
He has to be contrite, work hard and perform at a high level. That's all.
We can judge from there.
Sure, Grandal looks like he's hiding something by not talking.
"I intend to cooperate fully in their investigations," Grandal said in a statement, referring to the scrutiny by Major League Baseball and the authorities into the alleged activities of a South Florida anti-aging clinic alleged to have provided the Padres catcher and other major leaguers with performance-enhancing drugs. "I have been instructed by legal counsel not to answer questions relating to the pending investigations. Based on that legal advice, I will have no further comment."
Aside from our initial disappointment over Grandal denying us an Oprah moment on Saturday, we must acknowledge clamming up might be the smartest thing he could do.
Words can also be stupid. As much as the first instinct is to view as a cop-out someone miming on the advice of legal counsel, it is also pretty smart — especially if you have done something wrong.
Grandal has admitted he took a banned substance. He probably took more than one for longer than we know, and it would have been good to get an answer to that question. But, oh well. What would the answer have meant?
I don't really care.
Sure, he cheated. Sure, his being busted ruined the fantastic story of his rookie season. Sure, he handicapped the Padres for the first third of this season.
But if you want to root for the Padres, get over it.
Grandal will be eligible to return at the end of May, and unless Nick Hundley is more than we've ever seen him be, Grandal will be back in the lineup soon thereafter. The Padres still plan on Grandal being their catcher of the future.
We'll see soon enough if that bat speed was for real.
But for now, maybe consider where any of us would be if it weren't for second chances.
Grandal admitted to taking a banned substance after his 50-game suspension was announced in November and did so again Saturday. He apologized to his teammates. He read a statement to the media (and appeared emotional doing so).
And now, it's how he goes about his business that should determine how everyone — fans, media, teammates, his bosses — assess his career.
You want to talk about some wise counsel, Grandal should tape on his mirror what manager Bud Black said Saturday. That way, when Grandal looks at himself every day he will be reminded what it will take to make this mess a footnote and not a chapter heading.
