Jones maintains Phillips will not get fired
After yet another embarrassing home loss, this time to the Jaguars, Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips got another vote of confidence from owner and general manager Jerry Jones.
Garrard leads Jaguars past crumbling Cowboys 35-17
David Garrard tied a club record with four touchdown passes and ran for another while narrowly missing a perfect quarterback rating, leading the Jaguars to a 35-17 victory over the Cowboys on Sunday.
Kitna's arm means Cowboys mustn't change dramatically
There are actually silver linings to the Tony Romo collarbone injury that will keep him out at least six weeks at a time when there are very few Mr. Brightsides in the Greater Dallas area.
Cowboys may start third-stringer at left guard
News just keeps getting worse for the 1-5 Cowboys. They could be starting third-string OG Phil Costa at left guard in Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Cowboys' Romo won't have surgery, faces 6-8 week timetable
Cowboys QB Tony Romo won't need surgery on his broken collarbone and could return to the field in 6-8 weeks, Cowboys spokesman Rich Dalrymple said today.
Best-case scenario for Romo
Cowboys QB Tony Romo will only miss six weeks following Monday night's clavicle and collarbone injury, according to NFL Network reporter Michael Lombardi.
Romo breaks collarbone; Giants beat Cowboys 41-35
Giants QB Eli Manning threw four TD passes, pacing the division-leading Giants to a 41-35 win over the Cowboys, who fell to 1-5 and lost QB Tony Romo to a broken left clavicle.
Romo injury leaves Kitna in tough spot
The broken left clavicle suffered by Tony Romo in Monday night's game puts a much less mobile Jon Kitna in the spotlight, where he'll be playing behind a lumbering offensive line.
Romo out with fractured clavicle
Cowboys QB Tony Romo was knocked out of the Monday-night game against the Giants with a fractured left clavicle. Early reports suggested he might be sidelined for several months, leaving the starting job to Jon Kitna.
Inactives for Giants-Cowboys
The Giants and Cowboys have announced their inactive list for the final game of the Week Seven slate.
Romo or not, Cowboys destined to fail
We saw everything we needed to know about this Cowboys team in their loss to the Giants, and it had absolutely nothing to do with Tony Romo.
What has happened to Cowboys CB Jenkins?
Cowboys CB Mike Jenkins has taken to grabbing opposing receivers' jerseys when he is beat in coverage, which is a bad habit for a player who had been developing into one of the league's fine young corners.
Cowboys OG Kosier to miss 2-3 weeks
Cowboys starting LG Kyle Kosier will miss games for the second time this season, this time because of a strained right Achilles tendon.
Vikings players of the week
Here's a look at the players of the week from the Vikings' 24-21 win over the Cowboys on Sunday.
Vikings win battle of underachievers
Percy Harvin's 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown gave Minnesota a spark to start the second half, and the Vikings overcame another uneven game by Brett Favre in a 24-21 victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

Groton — A twin engine Piper Comanche had to make an emergency landing Monday morning at the Groton-New London Airport.
John Wallace, director of communication at the Connecticut Airport Authority, said an initial distress call was made at 8:51 a.m. after the aircraft had lost use of one of its engines.
The plane landed safely at 9 a.m. Wallace said emergency personnel were on standby.
Wallace said because the plane is a general aviation aircraft it is not required to file a flight plan. He said he did not know where the plane was coming from or heading to.
Airport officials said four people were on board. No injuries were reported.

The state of Mississippi is home to two of the SEC's top three returning quarterbacks.
Welcome to Raycom News Network's live blog from SEC Media Days in Hoover, AL.
(RNN) – Here's a weekly look at five of the SEC's top performers in Week 7 and who to watch in Week 8.
1. Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M – Manziel hasn't been mentioned much this year, but his sophomore season is no less remarkable than last year's Heisman campaign. Against Ole Miss, Manziel led the Aggies (5-1, 2-1) to a 41-38 come-from-behind win, throwing for 346 yards, running for 113 more with two touchdowns and was named the SEC's offensive player of the week.
It was the fourth time in his career Manziel has thrown for 300 and rushed for 100, which is an NCAA record. He set another NCAA record by becoming the fastest player to reach 7,000 total yards. Manziel is averaging 377 yards per game, which is fourth in the nation and 60 yards per game better than the SEC's No. 2 (Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray).
Manziel's numbers at this point in the season are better than last year. Through six games, he has 2,262 total yards and is on pace to better his 4,600 total yards from last season, which was an SEC record.
The Aggies next face newly ranked Auburn followed by Vanderbilt.
2. Jeremy Johnson, QB, Auburn – Johnson was enlisted to fill in for the injured Nick Marshall and was named the SEC's freshman of the week after throwing for 201 yards and four touchdowns in a 62-3 win over Western Carolina.
Marshall is expected to return next week, so Johnson will return his role as back-up, but it's a good sign for the Tigers (5-1, 2-1) that he's a capable replacement should Marshall miss more time.
3. Kentrell Brothers, LB, Missouri – The biggest win in Missouri's brief SEC tenure came with Saturday's 41-26 defeat of Georgia. Brothers recorded 10 tackles and intercepted a pass in the red zone with under a minute to play and was named the SEC's defensive player of the week.
Quarterback James Franklin has been the Tigers' breakout star, but Saturday's win was all about the defense. Georgia was held to 4-of-11 on third down and committed four turnovers – two interceptions and two fumbles – and the Tigers (6-0, 2-0) jumped from No. 25 to No. 14 and remain one of two undefeated teams in the SEC, along with top-ranked Alabama.
4. Connor Shaw, QB, South Carolina – South Carolina has been plagued by inconsistency, but Shaw threw for 219 yards and three touchdowns and added 37 rushing yards and a touchdown in a 52-7 drubbing of Arkansas.
It was the first game of the season where the Gamecocks (5-1, 3-1) played consistently across the board. South Carolina has four remaining SEC games, and can make the SEC championship with a win in all four and a second loss by Georgia to any conference opponent.
5. AJ McCarron, QB, Alabama – Despite numerous dropped passes, including two that looked like easy touchdowns, McCarron threw for a career-high 359 yards and one touchdown in Alabama's 48-7 win over Kentucky.
McCarron has three interceptions this season, which is uncharacteristic, but he is still 15th nationally in passing efficiency with a 161.2 rating. However, that is only good for fifth in the SEC. Alabama's efficient offense is largely because of McCarron's ability to spread the ball to different receivers and use the play action to throw deep at opportune times. There appears to be only one more game that should cause the Crimson Tide (6-0, 3-0) any problems – a Nov. 9 home game against LSU.
1. Maty Mauk, QB, Missouri – James Franklin's injury came at perhaps the worst time for the Tigers. Franklin was originally believed to be out for the rest of the season with a separated shoulder, but that has been downgraded to three to five weeks.
Even with a best-case scenario, Franklin would miss games against Florida, South Carolina and Tennessee. Mauk, a freshman, has attempted just six passes, and three of those came against Georgia last week after Franklin left the game in the fourth quarter. He completed all three and has five completions on the season.
Florida has the No. 3 defense in the country, allowing 235 yards per game. It's not a good situation for a first-time starter to be in, and Mauk will have to find a way to move the ball against a defense that is fourth in scoring, eighth in third down conversions, second in passing efficiency and tied for fourth in first downs allowed.
2. Mack Brown, RB, Florida – On the other side of the ball will be Florida's offense, which is coming off a lackluster effort against LSU and will be without Matt Jones who suffered a torn meniscus against LSU and is out for the season.
Brown is the leading rusher for the Gators (4-2, 3-1), but only by one yard over Jones. Missouri's defense has been spotty this season against a mediocre schedule and relied heavily on turnovers to topple Georgia. Florida's offense has had turnover issues at times, notably earlier this season against Miami.
If Brown and the rest of the Gators' offense can protect the football, Florida's defense will likely do the rest.
3. Brandon Allen, QB, Arkansas – Arkansas has lost four games in a row and enters Saturday's game against No. 1 Alabama coming off its biggest loss of the year. Arkansas (3-4, 0-3) is averaging 216 yards rushing a game (24th nationally, fifth in the SEC) while Alabama is allowing 87 (seventh nationally, second in the SEC).
Running back Alex Collins is second in the SEC and 11th nationally in rushing with 720 yards this season. It's going to be difficult to rely on just a rushing attack against Alabama, so Allen will have to keep the offense moving through the air against the No. 2 scoring defense in the country.
Allen has thrown for 864 yards and eight touchdowns this year, but he also has five interceptions. Against Arkansas last week, Allen threw for just 30 yards. To have any chance at beating Alabama, that number will have to be much higher.
4. Bo Wallace, QB, Ole Miss – After two weeks of being shut down by Alabama and Auburn, Wallace rebounded to throw for 301 yards and three touchdowns against Texas A&M. He also had 27 rushing yards, which is something he would like to improve on in Ole Miss' read-option offense.
The Rebels (3-3, 1-3) are coming off three consecutive losses and will face LSU this week. LSU's defense is allowing 22 points per game and Ole Miss' offense is scoring 29 points a game. Against the only defense comparable to LSU's that Ole Miss has played, the Rebels were held to 205 total yards and no points by Alabama.
The Rebels also turned the ball over twice against Alabama. Against LSU, Wallace will need to maintain consistency and get help from the running game to keep the game manageable against a team that shouldn't have any trouble scoring against the Ole Miss defense.
5. Austyn Carta-Samuels, QB, Vanderbilt – Vanderbilt has taken a big fall from its preseason expectations, losing all three conference games and facing a struggle for bowl eligibility. But Saturday's game against Georgia is coming at a good time.
Georgia is riddled with injuries and coming off a disheartening loss to Missouri, and will be on the road. Vanderbilt hasn't gotten much help from its running game this season, but Georgia's secondary has been vulnerable all year.
Carta-Samuels hovers in the mid-20s nationally in most major passing categories while Georgia's defense is 65th in total yards and 104th in passing efficiency. The opportunity for an upset is there, and if Carta-Samuels can get the ball to receivers Jordan Matthews and Jonathan Krause, Vanderbilt could pull it out.

It was Long Ball Monday, and NASCAR's Dale Earnhardt Jr. even took his eyes off the Winston Cup walls long enough to watch the balls sail over the walls at U.S. Cellular Field. No one will forget the 14 dingers -- or the standing ovation -- that Albert Pujols of St. Louis rang up in his second round, including that 478-footer that reminded Cards fans of the Big Mac days. But Anderson was too much for him in the final round, adding another important piece of hardware after Pujols' last shot hit the wall and just missed. MLB.com's Sights and Sounds page has extensive video and audio from the event, including Jason Giambi's followup efforts after his 2002 title.
Now it's time for the really big show. All eyes are on the 74th All-Star Game, and participants spent much of the day Monday talking about why the home-field advantage adds new emphasis. Just ask NL starter Jason Schmidt of the Giants, who is well aware that 15 of the last 17 clubs with the home-field advantage in the World Series have won the championship. Mindful of Anderson and those Angels, he said: "Hosting Game 7 last year probably would have made a big difference."
A Midsummer Classic classic
Roger Clemens was one of the most popular topics of conversation during the first half because of his successful pursuit of his 300th victory and 4,000th strikeout, and now the Yankees' right-hander can add another All-Star Game in what is expected to be his final season. Clemens was added to the AL roster as a replacement for Oakland's Barry Zito, who was not expected to be able to pitch after throwing eight shutout innings Sunday.
The Rocket was named the All-Star Game's Most Valuable Player in 1986 with Boston, and perhaps he will go out with another of those awards the way Cal Ripken Jr. did in his final All-Star Game two years ago. Of course, you are going to have a say in that for the first time. Fans can participate exclusively at MLB.com in the All-Star MVP Vote presented by Pepsi, starting in the third inning and continuing through the end of the game. That shouldn't be a problem for fans who spoke loudly and often in voting online for the All-Star starters and then with the etopps All-Star Final Vote.
Selig's Town Hall chat
One of the most popular attractions at the John Hancock Fanfest Monday? It might have been Major League Baseball's commissioner himself, Bud Selig. He held court among more than 1,000 fans there while participating in his third-ever question and answer chat with baseball fans around the world via MLB.com. Selig answered a variety of topics and touched on all of the issues that seem to be near and dear to baseball fans everywhere, including:
Pete Rose and whether he will be reinstated into MLB; whether the Montreal Expos will relocate to Washington, D.C.; whether a baseball World Cup is on the horizon; and whether the current playoffs will include more teams. There were also some oldies but goodies: Whether designated hitters will ever be adopted in the National League or if the position should be abolished altogether; whether players should be obligated to give autographs; whether starting times of major events such as the All-Star Game and World Series could be moved to earlier slots; and whether the Commissioner is in favor of further realignment between the leagues.
Everyone's talking
Monday was interview day at a local hotel, and MLB.com correspondents staked out each table to provide team-by-team coverage. Want to know why the Red Sox representatives play to win? How did Melvin Mora go from workhorse to All-Star? Check there to see what your favorite stars were talking about Monday.
Lineups are set
All-Star managers Mike Scioscia (AL) and Dusty Baker (NL) announced their starting lineups for this game. Here are the batting orders:
AL: 1. RF Ichiro Suzuki, 2. 2B Alfonso Soriano, 3. 1B Carlos Delgado, 4. SS Alex Rodriguez, 5. LF Anderson, 6. DH Edgar Martinez, 7. CF Hideki Matsui, 8. 3B Troy Glaus, 9. C Jorge Posada.
NL: 1. SS Edgar Renteria, 2. CF Jim Edmonds, 3. LF Pujols, 4. DH Bonds, 5. RF Gary Sheffield, 6. 1B Todd Helton, 7. 3B Scott Rolen, 8. C Javy Lopez, 9. 2B Jose Vidro.
Scioscia met reporters alongside his starting pitcher, Esteban Loaiza of the White Sox, and said he felt honored to be managing the AL stars in this year in which player voting returned. Baker didn't reveal his pitching lineup but did talk about his tough decision to start Schmidt on the mound instead another of his former 2002 Giants, Atlanta's Russ Ortiz.
Until they meet again
As the AL players finished batting practice and gave way to the NL squad, Matsui approached Baker behind the cage and bowed. It was a reunion of their first meeting in early June at Wrigley Field, where the Cubs took two of three from the Yanks in one of the most-anticipated regular-season series in recent memory.
Baker's response: "We'll see you in the World Series!"
Few players were savoring the experience more than Matsui, the Yankees' rookie outfielder from Japan. Starting in the same outfield as countryman Suzuki, Matsui said through his interpreter: "A few years ago, we couldn't have imagined Japanese players in the Major League All-Star Game. But we're playing. It's great. The fans in Japan are very proud of how we have performed here."

Can't wait till I can make the Browns have a 99 bathroom rating, since thats the only SB they can go to. Seriously though, I hope they fixed the physics engine. I'm sick of my own players knocking me down or my guy doing some crazy stuff and falling down.
I hope they fixed the progression system too. Get rid of the XP stuff and make it less like a RPG game.
It wasn't so much dumb as it was just broken. By year 5 of a players career, just about everyone was in the high 80s. It made it way too easy to build an all star team imo. Scouting and drafting was too easy too. After a few months of playing I was able to draft four or five guys that were in the 80s in every draft....which is ridiculous.

This page introduces the basics for getting started with editing on Wikia and a walkthrough of the Wikia editor. You may wish to visit the linked pages to learn more in-depth details of editing.
Note: the information below is for the classic Wikia editor. For information on using the new VisualEditor, see Help:VisualEditor.
Step by step
Anyone can edit a wikia, and generally you don't even need to have an account to edit! (There are some circumstances which can restrict editing.)
- To edit a page, simply click the Edit button which is located by the title of the page.
- The editor will then load, allowing you to make changes to the page - adding or removing text, photos, videos and much more.
Editor features
- Visual Mode: This mode is generally the default and allows you to make edits that will appear similar to how they will on the published page.
- Source Mode: This mode allows you to edit the page using wikitext.
- You can disable the Visual Mode entirely by visiting the "Editing" tab in your preferences, opening the "Preferred editor" menu, then selecting "Source editor".
- This mode may be preferred for editors who need to edit complex templates frequently.
- Edit Area: This is the main content area where you can add text, media and adjust the format of the page.
- Toolbar: The toolbar allows you to format text, making it different sizes and styles. You can expand and condense the toolbar to view more or less tools.
- Feature Modules: The right pane also includes modules that allow you to add features and media such as photos, slideshow, videos and tables. You can access templates to use on the page and add categories. The preview and publish buttons are found at the top of this area.
Basic editing tips
- Once the editor is opened, you can use the toolbar, features modules and free form edit area to add or adjust to the page content.
- To see how your page will appear once it's published, click on the preview button. This will pop up a window that shows the page as it is currently designed. You can also choose to view how the page will look at the minimum and maximum sizes that other users might see.
- If you like your preview, hit publish and your edits will be pushed live.
- If you don't like your preview, you can keep editing until it appears as you would like it to.
- To let others know what you added, fill in a summary above the publish button.
Finally, don't be afraid if you 'break' anything. All edits to a page are stored in the page history, and if something does go wrong you can simply revert to an older version.

TAHLEQUAH, Okla. — Victor Johnson left the Oklahoma State University football team under on bad terms. He played just nine games im 2009 before being sidelined by a knee injury and then getting dropped from the team after failing a drug test.
Even so, Johnson is among those who now defends the Big 12 program as it comes under scrutiny for a range of allegations including players getting paid for on-field performance, academic fraud and drug use.
Johnson, now a senior at Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, said he was misquoted in the five-part Sports Illustrated series describing the revival of OSU's football program from 2001 to 2011. He calls the report "bogus."
"I violated one of their rules - one of their team rules - so I had to leave," he said of his departure. "That was the end of it."
Launched Tuesday, Sports Illustrated has detailed illicit cash payments to OSU players, academic dishonesty including players receiving passing grades for classes they didn't attend and weak enforcement of drug policies. Friday's installment describes sexual encounters between would-be players and some members of a hostess group, "Orange Pride," meant to show recruits and their families around campus.
The report comes after a 10-month investigation that included interviews with 64 former OSU players - including Johnson. As the NCAA and OSU review the allegations, some of those players mentioned in the series - including Johnson - are publicly backing away from their comments or saying they were misquoted.
The series quotes Johnson as saying he probably could have stayed on the team - even after failing drug tests - had he not been injured. In an interview with the Tahlequah Daily Press, he denied saying that.
Johnson said he isn't afraid to admit his arrest on a complaint of obstructing an OSU police officer and a charge of marijuana possession. He said he told the Sports Illustrated reporter he failed a drug test, and, "That's why I left."

Around the campfire, great stories are great stories, retold year after year to the same audience while newcomers reap the rewards of legend. If the fireside story is compelling, the newly anointed take the tale to another fire-pit and share.
In techno world, it's described as 'viral,' meaning word travels from person to person and grows at first slowly but then exponentially. Shortening our long story, Frabill® knows that's how the legend of R2-TEC® thermal technology has earned loyalists and spread across the Ice Belt.
Like our new Frabill Extreme Elements (FXE) lineup of super premium outerwear – FXE Stormsuit and FXE Snosuit® – R2-TEC portable ice fishing shelters aren't engineered for the weekender or casual angler. There are plenty of other companies 'racing to the bottom' to make the cheapest products possible to reach prices that should be reserved for bales of hay and badminton sets, not ice fishing gear.
R2-TEC premium fish house fabric entered the scene a couple of seasons ago. And because of a methodically swelling demand as anglers show-and-tell to friends and family, demand grows. In response, Frabill now produces thermally miraculous R2-TEC tents to fit several popular Frabill shelter models, including the show-stopping Predator, new PRO, Guardian and Commando.
Hype –which is all true – out of the way, it's time to redefine what makes R2-TEC thermal shelter fabric quantum leaps above other thermal 'fakers' on the street. The epic tale begins with Norpac R2™-TEC Extreme Outdoor Fabric with Thinsulate™ FR Insulation by 3M. Okay,that's more than a mouthful. So if you only leave remembering R2-TEC, Thinsulate™ and 3M, you have the key pieces to the puzzle.
In real on-the-ice situations, the techy-terminology translates into unbridled warmth. On average, in side by side tests, R2-TEC shelters are 30-degrees warmer than the competition with their cheesy single-ply, teddy bear stuffing that sweats internally like a sumo wrestler in a sauna. Hate that 'drip, drip, drip' coming from the ceiling? We do. Simply doesn't happen in an R2-TEC shack. She stays dry from the first hole to the last fish.

Boater involved in fatal crash pleads not guilty
Mauston - A 22-year-old man driving a boat involved in a fatal crash has pleaded not guilty to a homicide charge in Juneau County Circuit Court.

The Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune said Collins has pleaded not guilty to homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle and causing injury by intoxicated operation of a boat.

Payday lenders back in business with looser regulations
Madison - Payday lenders have wriggled out of state regulations that lawmakers put in place 2½ years ago, in part because Republicans last year loosened some of those restrictions.
Many of the lenders have shifted from payday loans that were good for as little as two weeks to what they call installment loans - high-interest loans that don't fall under payday lending regulations. Installment loans can have annual interest rates of 500% or more. »Read Full Article(198)

Effort to replace Fox Point footbridge starts new phase

$11 million surplus projected for Milwaukee County
Milwaukee County is on track to finish the year with a surplus of up to $11 million, due in part to lower-than-expected employee health costs and a major reduction in transit rides for older people and people with disabilities, according to a comptroller's report.
The projected departmental surplus as of Sept. 30 was $8.7 million, according to a report by Comptroller Scott Manske. A revised calculation also showed the county's budgeted pension contribution for the year was now $2.5 million more than required. »Read Full Article(57)

Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez said he plans to put a clause in the contract of the next UW football coach that requires the coach to inform Wisconsin if another school contacts him for a job.

Packers fans: Are you suited for reality TV?
Reality TV fans may be getting a dose of Wisconsin culture soon with a show focused on Wisconsin's faithful football fans. Apparently producers from the Style Network were in Green Bay on Friday looking for the most vivacious Cheeseheads to cast for a pilot to be filmed by the end of the year.
Packers wives are currently featured in "The Better Half" on WLUK-TV (Channel 11) in five Wisconsin TV markets, but the NBCUniversal-owned Style Network would bring Packer pride to a cable TV audience on the heels of shows like "Jerseylicious" and "Big Rich Texas." »Read Full Blog Post(2)

General manager Doug Melvin indicated the offer was for more than $100 million over five years but less than the five-year, $112.5 million extension the Giants gave Matt Cain in the spring. »Read Full Blog Post(97)

May 29, 2009
Sadly, March 7, 2009, marked the 15th anniversary for California's draconian Three Strikes and You're Out law. Fifteen years is one and a half decades, 180 months or 5,475 days. No matter how you calculate it, 15 years is too long for non-violent humans to be "incapacitated" for petty, non-serious and victimless crimes.

Trio Navarro Evokes The Memory Of A Great Cellist
What do cello superstar Yo-Yo Ma and nineteenth-century Russian composer Anton Arensky have in common? Answer: the Davidov Stradivarius, named for cellist Karl Davidov (1838-1889).
Described by Tchaikovsky as the "czar of cellists," Davidov was head of the St. Petersburg Conservatory when Arensky was a student there.
Davidov's priceless 1712 cello lives on through the artistry of Yo-Yo Ma, to whom it is currently on loan.

Trio Ariadne Offers Free Performance of "Quartet for the End of Time," April 16
Composed while Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was imprisoned by the Nazis in Stalag VIII, A Quartet for the End of Time premiered in January 1941 under the most trying of circumstances: freezing temperatures, inferior instruments, and the wretched conditions of life in a POW camp.
SSU's Trio Ariadne brings the work to the Evert B. Person stage at 7 p.m. on April 16 in a free concert. Guest violinist Joe Edelberg joins them. A discussion of the work is included. Though admission is free, tickets are required and can be reserved online at http://www.tickets.edu/tix or by phoning 707.664.4246.
"I think this work is a hugely important work of the 20th century that threw open the possibilities of music in the later part of the century, "says cellist Saeunn Thorsteinsdottir, a member of the Trio Ariadne.
"It is a hugely personal, yet universal piece of music that has captured the imagination of not only the first audience of hundreds of prisoners of war and the Nazi guards, but well beyond those horrifying circumstances. It is a message of hope in the face of suffering, a true testament to the human spirit."
Trio Ariadne are the 2013-14 Weill Hall Artists-in-Residence. In addition to Thorsteinsdottir, they also include Elizabeth Joy Roe, piano, and Carol McGonnell clarinet. Guest violinist Joe Edelberg is the concertmaster of the Santa Rosa Symphony.
