Oral Roberts Tribute: Christian Leaders Remember
Prominent Christian leaders reflected on the legacy of healing evangelist Oral Roberts by describing him as "a man of God" and a pioneer in televangelism and healing ministry.
Evangelist Billy Graham, founder of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
Joel Osteen, pastor of Lakewood Church in Houston
Missions leader David Shibley, founder of Global Advance
When I was in high school I was privileged to meet Oral Roberts and know his family. In my first visit to their home, a copy of Oswald Chambers' classic devotional My Utmost for His Highest was on the coffee table. That describes his life and peerless evangelistic ministry. Oral Roberts was his utmost for His highest.
Healing evangelist Benny Hinn
Through the years I have often thought of the standard he has set for so many ministers and believers to follow, and on this day of his glorious home-going, it is once again a time for all of us to reflect even more upon his tremendous impact. God overshadowed his life, even before he entered the world at 11 a.m., January 24, 1918, in Pontotoc County, Okla. What a journey he made in his 91 years as he traveled around the world as a true pioneer for the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Only heaven will reveal how many hearts he has pointed toward heaven, how many homes have been revolutionized through his seed-faith teaching, and how many ears have heard his faith-filled phrase, "Expect a miracle!" God has used him to open doors that were once considered closed to the miracle-working power of the gospel, and wherever I travel, I have been ever thankful for the trail he blazed.
I ask all my partners to be in prayer for his family during these days of bereavement. And while we join his loved ones in mourning the loss of this great trailblazer of the faith, we also celebrate his reunion in heaven with his beloved wife, Evelyn, other family members, the hosts who accepted our Lord Jesus as Savior, and most importantly, with the Lord Himself, whom our brother in Christ served so faithfully during his memorable lifetime!
Oral Roberts University Board Chair Mart Green
Bishop T.D. Jakes, pastor of The Potter's House in Dallas
Trinity Broadcasting Network founder Paul Crouch
This was major news for the little town of Rapid City, as Dr. Roberts was the preeminent healing evangelist of that day. I invited him to be a guest on my news program, which he graciously accepted. Little did I know that 25 years later our paths would once again cross as Jan and I had the joy and privilege of interviewing Dr. Roberts for the first of many times on the Praise the Lord program.
We will always be grateful for Dr. Roberts' enthusiasm and support for TBN, and will forever treasure the messages of inspiration he gave to Jan and me personally as he encouraged us to expand the vision and outreach of TBN to reach the whole wide world. His prayers and wisdom helped strengthen our faith in times of trial and difficulty. We shared his sorrow when his sweet wife, Evely, went home to be with the Lord a few years ago, and were blessed to see that he still had the desire to continue sharing the message God gave to him until his assignment was finished.
Now, his day of graduation has arrived, and Jan and I rejoice that he is in the presence of Jesus enjoying the rich rewards of a life spent in faithful service to our Savior. We will miss his wonderful smile, encouraging words and precious prayers. He cannot be replaced, but he will always remain with us through his spiritual legacy and powerful, life-changing messages of faith and healing.

RICHLAND, Wash. (AP) - A federal grand jury has indicted 10 current or former managers and supervisors for a contractor at the nation's most contaminated nuclear site, accusing them of enabling timecard fraud there. The company, CH2M Hill Hanford Group, held a contract to dig up contaminated debris and treat groundwater at south-central Washington's Hanford Nuclear Reservation. The contract expired in 2008. The indictment claims the company failed to follow a recommendation in a 2004 independent audit to install new timecard equipment to verify that employees worked the hours they claimed. The Tri-City Herald reported Wednesday that nine workers previously pleaded guilty to felony charges related to the timecard fraud. In addition, CH2M Hill agreed earlier this month to pay $18.5 million to settle civil and criminal allegations of defrauding taxpayers in the scheme.

The Park at Athens Square is named for the capital of modern Greece and the center of ancient Greek civilization. From 594 to 404 BC, literature, science, philosophy, and the arts flourished in Athens. The birthplace of democracy had its golden age during the rule of statesman Pericles (c. 495-429 BC), who made sweeping political reforms and actively supported the arts. Pericles is credited with the Athenian oath of fealty, which has been invoked by New York City mayors Fiorello H. LaGuardia and Rudolph W. Giuliani (in 1934 and 1998 respectively). Oath-takers pledge to "transmit this city not only less, but far greater and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us." In this spirit Astoria's citizens transformed a playground into The Park at Athens Square.
Directions to Athens Square
Know Before You Go
Athens Square
Athens Square is currently closed to reconstruct the plaza and adjacent seating area. Pavement that has settled over the years creating low points where water pools will be replaced. The Sun of Vergina, an ancient Greek symbol, will be placed in the circle that is used for a stage at concerts in the summer. The cheek walls on either side of the two ramps will be reconstructed and a new ramp will be constructed between the seating area and the plaza. New handrails will be installed, two and one-half foot fencing will be placed around plant beds, plant material will be replaced as needed, and a trench drain will be installed near the spray shower to keep water from flowing onto the safety surface.
Anticipated Completion: Summer 2014

Vandals take first steps to recovery after floods
4:34pm Thursday 6th March 2014 in Rugby Union
Running in porridge: Vandals scrum-half John Clark, above, collects a pass from Adam Bullett in Saturday's first match at Brownacres since the floods, right Picture: Stuart Amos
Weybridge Vandals captain Cassian Bramham-Law admitted ring rust was a factor as his side toiled hard to beat rock-bottom Teddington on Saturday.
The recent floods have left Vandals unable to train or play at Brownacres since the turn of the year and it showed as they overcame a 7-5 half-time deficit to beat their struggling visitors 29-7 at the weekend.
The win goes a long way to securing Weybridge's London Division Two South West survival, while off the pitch the club has launched a fundraising drive to cover the costs of flood damage.
Vandals go to Effingham & Leatherhead on Saturday.

Final full day for Paralympians
6:10am Saturday 8th September 2012 in National News © Press Association 2014
Great Britan's Ellie Simmonds has been one of the standout performers of the games with two golds and a bronze so far
Great Britain's Paralympians go into the final full day of a stunning games having won a record number of medals in front of packed-out stadiums and unprecedented TV audiences - with hopes of further glory still to come.
Swimming superstar Ellie Simmonds enters the pool later to cap what has been a memorable games for her, as she goes for her third gold in the 100m freestyle.
The teenager has been one of the standout performers of the games and has won the nation's hearts on her way to wins in the 200m and 400m, as well as bronze in the 50m event. She will aim to go one better than the two golds she bagged at Beijing - which she won aged just 13 - as she performs in the aquatics centre for the final time.
Oscar Pistorius, beaten by GB's Jonnie Peacock in a thrilling 100m final on Thursday, will provide the final showpiece as he competes in the 400m this evening. His appearance will be the final race in the stadium, which has seen some incredible performances over the last nine days.
The South African tweeted on Friday: "Looking forward to stepping out tonight and tomorrow for my last and favourite event, The Quarter-400m! The Final event of London 2012."
The British gold rush is expected to continue on Sunday when David Weir competes in the London wheelchair marathon. Weir, 33, known as The Weirwolf of London, won the 800m gold in a sensational performance on Thursday as the raucous crowd sang along to his trademark song Werewolves Of London,
Josie Pearson, 26, won Britain's 32nd of the games in the discus final on Friday. The Bristol-born athlete was just 17 and a promising showjumper when in 2003 she was left paralysed in a car crash that broke her vertebrae.
On Sunday a dramatic closing ceremony will bring the curtain down on what has undoubtedly been one of the most successful Paralympics ever. Stars including Jay-Z and Rihanna will appear at the event, which has been shrouded in mystery.
British stars of the Olympics and Paralympics will then celebrate their summer of success during a victory parade through the streets of London on Monday.

Over recent weeks, the algae blooms have become much more
widespread across Lake Erie, and that's resulting in the City of Toledo
spending more green to keep its drinking water clean.
Chemistry lab technicians at Toledo's water treatment
plant are keeping a close watch on the satellite images of the algae blooms in
Lake Erie. The water coming into the plant is looking greener these days, but
the water going out remains at safe drinking levels.
"We were prepared," said Treatment Plant Administrator Andy
McClure. "We knew there was an algae bloom coming. They also monitor pH of the
water. The algae will tend to drive the pH a little higher."
As more algae
comes in, the city is spending an additional $3,000/day to treat that water
with chemicals, such as carbon and alum.
"We feed additional carbon to absorb the compounds that
cause the taste and odor problems, and we'll feed a little extra alum," McClure
said. "We get better flocculation in the plant to settle it out."
Flocculation is basically the process to get the bad
stuff to stick together and settle to the bottom of the tanks before water is
pumped out for final treatment.
"It's when you destroy those cells you get the taste and
odor problems. Our real goal is to settle it out and treat it," he said.
The extra money being spent is coming out of the same
water operating fund which the city uses to repair broken water main lines.
"It's all out of the operating fund that goes towards
your water," said McClure. "It comes out of your water bills. It's money that
could be used elsewhere if we didn't use it on chemicals."
McClure says water plant staffers and chemists are at the
facility around the clock to make sure the drinking water is safe.

I've noticed some churches in my area that are titled things like:
"Greek" Orthodox
"Russian" Orthodox
"Serbian" Orthodox
"Antiochian" Orthodox
Are these all the same type of Christian Church?
I've noticed some churches in my area that are titled things like:
Are these all the same type of Christian Church?
This kinda falls into general reference territory. There are two major groups of "Orthodox" churches.
The Eastern Orthodox Church is one large group of churches that share a common theology. It separated from the Catholic Church (or vice versa, depending on your POV) in 1054 AD.
They are the "same type" of church in that they share a theology, but they tend to be ethnically tied - if you go into a Greek Orthodox Church in Texas, you'll still need to speak you some Greek. They don't have a pope, but the group of all their bishops are considered to be the ruling body of the church.
The Oriental Orthodox Church split off earlier (451 AD) over the Council of Chalcedon.
This is a pretty small group however; most Orthodox churches you'll see in the West tend to be of the Eastern Orthodox breed.
These churches are all the same faith in the sense that they recognize each other are Christian, but the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox branches are not in communion with each other (or anyone else, I believe) and consider other branches to be schismatic and more-or-less heretical.
There are a lot of churches with similar names and variants. Of course they are mostly synonyms, a trivial canvas of local denomination names and sub-denominations indicates you have to be quite specific. A commenter asked about "the Coptics;" there is a Coptic Catholic Church and a Coptic Orthodox Church, for example.
Officially all the Eastern Orthodox Churches share "one Lord, one faith, one baptism," and this is manifested by intercommunion among, say, the sees of Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria, Rome (before the Schism, she received the highest honor among the sees at councils), Constantinople, Georgia, Kiev, Moscow, Athens, Washington DC, Paris, London, Tokyo, Bulgaria, and so on. One of the recent blessings the Lord bestowed upon the Orthodox Church was a restoration of intercommunion between the estranged sees of Moscow and the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, which separated due to the Bolshevik Revolution. We all believe (canonically/officially) the same thing, or rather, we all believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, in more or less the same way.
With regards to the answer of @mxyzplk: in America, due to the immigrant nature of our population, Orthodox parishes unfortunately can become ethnic enclaves rather than Eucharistic communities. This is a heresy condemned by the church: it is called ethnophyletism. This is not to say that ethnic communities dedicated to preserving a real culture in the midst of our consumerist so-called culture are bad; but they must be distinguished from the work of the church. I have never personally encountered this problem in my life in the Orthodox Church, thank God.
There are other churches with the name Orthodox, among them notably the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, the Coptic Orthodox Church, the Syriac Orthodox Church, and the Indian Orthodox Church. The Coptics, Syriacs, and Ethiopians do not accept the council of Chalcedon, so they are not in communion with the Eastern Orthodox. Confusingly, they are collectively called "Oriental" Orthodox, as opposed to the "Eastern" Orthodox. There is nowadays an ongoing dialogue between the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox churches, in hopes that perhaps our separation is due merely to misunderstanding or language issues. (Cf. orthodoxwiki.org)
The churches your speaking about are all the same in faith and are all Eastern Orthodox. The reason they have different names is because of the ethnicity/culture of the Orthodox who attend that Church, but they are all united in one faith.
Actually, the Coptic Church is one of the Oriental Orthodox, there's also the Ethiopians, the Malankar (I think), and others who escape me at this point.
However, it is incorrect to argue that the Orthodox are split into two sects. The so-called "Eastern" Orthodox (which I am), would simply say that the Oriental Orthodox is another break away group, like Rome, but which retains much more of their Orthodox roots.

Focus on: Frozen Fruit
When it's the middle of winter in North America, fresh, local, seasonal fruits are scarce. Imports from the Southern Hemisphere can fill in some gaps, as can the ever-expanding selection of frozen fruit. The latter category offers plenty of variety and convenience; the fruit comes ready to use—peeled, if necessary, and sliced, chunked or diced if appropriate—saving time and labor.
Processors who freeze fruit can pick it at the peak of freshness and ripeness and immediately preserve the flavor and texture through IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) technology. This allows the individual pieces of fruit to travel through a freezing tunnel and become frozen within 15 to 20 minutes. The speed of the process is a big advantage—the product doesn't have time to break down. The resulting fruit is free flowing and won't clump together. About 95 percent of frozen fruit is IQF; the rest is frozen in syrup.
"What comes out at the end of the IQF tunnel depends on what you put in," says Bob Barnhouse, VP of Operations for Dole's frozen fruit processing division in Atwater, California, "and there's been a significant improvement in the varieties of fruit grown for freezing. They have better texture, flavor and appearance, resulting in a higher quality frozen product." Dole is currently working to develop new fruit varieties and experimenting with IQF processes to bring frozen fruit even closer in appearance and texture to fresh.
While frozen strawberries are still the top seller, there's been growth in blueberries, blackberries and raspberries, as well as fruit blends, such as peachmango and mixed berries. Buyers are also showing interest in specialty fruits, like sliced cranberries and pomegranate arils, Barnhouse adds. For foodservice, the most common packaging is the 5-pound self-sealing poly bag packed two to a carton; 20-pound bulk packs are also available.
When evaluating a frozen fruit product, open the bag and sniff; the product should have a fresh fruit aroma. Appearance is key, Barnhouse explains. The color should be bright and natural looking and last three to four hours at room temperature without oxidizing. "If you're chopping up the fruit or using it in smoothies, it's all about color and flavor," he says. "If you're using the fruit whole, the size of the pieces or berries should be uniform with no broken pieces." Finally, there should be no indication of ice crystals or freezer burn.
Proper handling is essential to preserve the quality of frozen fruit. It's imperative to keep the product at or below 0°F—and preferably at -5°F—throughout the supply chain, including the restaurant kitchen. "It's best to use the fruit when it's still slightly frozen and cold," Barnhouse advises. "It shouldn't be left out to thaw for a long time at room temperature."

Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
I have a little over 10 cords in the basement, another 6 cords already cut/split/piled and hopefully next weekend if it doesn't rain too much, the balance of what we have cut - should end up with a bit over 12 cords - should be enougfh for this year and next year.
IIRC, you have one of them little electric hydraulic splitters correct? It amazes me how much them little puppies can split.
You have a nice pile of wood there. Do you haul it in by the armful or do you have some in the house already?

Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
rudi i overused that lil electric one and it blew apart so i had to get another gas one.....i carry it in the basement in those tsc muck buckets...warms me three times total but i really enjoy a wood fire and no heating bill
Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
Boy that brings back memories of my grandparents farm in Keyson Ontario -- had to carry firewood in from the woodshed 3 to 4 times a day. Good exercise but at -40 or -50F it was just a little brisk. I also am a huge fan of wood heat. Very inexpensive - well almost free since I already own it, and the exercise is good for my heart.
The gas splitter should make the job easier.

Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
You have enough firewood only when you can't get anymore without buying it. The trees that will make sawlogs can be left standing. I thought it was nice when dad put in fuel oil for heat since it was my job to keep the woodboxes full. From the outside in good weather and from the basement in rainy or snowy weather. The spaceheater in the kitchen remained until after I left and mother sometimes cooked on it. Cheaper than buying propane for the cookstove. Vern
Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
I like that!
Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
I really like Vern's outlook on how much is enough. Unless you have your wood covered (I plan to have that project done this spring - will hold probably 20 cords), wood is usually usable for about 2 years so that should be the max stored outside uncovered.
I like free wood - means I don't have to cut mine. I have a chum who is in the tree trimming business and he brings me both the wood and the greens. The greens are used as mulch along the road etc., (makes great compost but takes a few years to degrade sufficiently). Doesn't matter what species, it all burns nicely and that is the main point. I have electric backup but we do not use it unless we are out of town during the winter. My youngest daughter will not make a fire - a phobia I guess, but that is my job anyways.

Re: when do u have enuf firewood?
You can never have enough firewoord. Keep it stacked two rows wide and covered so it can breathe untilol needed. Now i try to stay a year ahead.
I been heating with firewood since 1979.
The bottomline is i like to be at least 3 years ahead. After that its too dry and burns too quickly.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.

No hard feelings as Potter moves closer to Oxford United comeback
9:10am Friday 24th January 2014 in Headlines By David Pritchard , Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
ALFIE Potter says he no longer holds a grudge against the Bristol Rovers player who caused the worst injury of the Oxford United winger's career.
The 25-year-old is running again and on course to make a playing return within the next month.
It is encouraging news for Potter, who has been ruled out since the start of November with ruptured ankle ligaments following a tackle by Tom Lockyer in the 1-0 defeat at the Kassam Stadium.
United's visit to Rovers next month is likely to come too soon for Potter, but he says there is no bad blood with the defender, who was booked for the challenge.
"It was a late tackle, but he didn't mean it," Potter said.
"I think you do bear a grudge for a little while but I'm over it now. It happens.
"It won't be a lasting thing if I ever play against him again."
Potter needed surgery to repair the damage and the healing process has been painfully slow at times.
- Alfie Potter is stretchered off against Bristol Rovers in November
The U's star admits it had been worse than two seasons ago, when a broken ankle ruled him out for the second half of the campaign.
He said: "With that one I knew my season was finished, so I just switched off.
"I could take my time getting it right because I had all the summer.
"But with this one it didn't come at the best time and I want to come back as soon as possible, but at the same time I've had to make sure it's right.
"The main thing is getting out on the grass.
"You spend so much time in the gym that it starts to affect you, but when you get out on the grass you know you're nearly there.
"It's been just under three months, so I'm sure three weeks will fly by."
Since the injury, the berth on United's right flank has been taken by Fulham loanee Ryan Williams.
Potter has been impressed with the 20-year-old and does not expect to just walk back into the starting line-up when fit.
He said: "Ryan's a great outlet for the team when you've got someone that quick and you can give them the ball.
"He's a pleasure to watch.
"All I can do is train as hard as I can, try to get back to how I was playing before and it's up to the manager then."

Any concerns about how Jason Garrett's new offense would use Witten were quickly answered when he caught 29 passes for 407 yards and four scores in just the first five games. Witten ended with a career high 96 catches (second in the NFL) for 1145 yards and seven scores (again, second in the NFL). He even had four games over 100 yards. The new offense didn't need a complementary wideout to Terrell Owens. It just used Witten.
Witten's forecast this year should call for much of the same. The same players are on the team other than Felix replacing Julius Jones and the Cowboys, yet again, have plenty of motivation after another quick exit from the playoffs. While the passing numbers for Tony Romo decreased later in the season, they never did for Witten who had 31 catches in just the last four games including a 15 catch game in Detroit. He's in his prime in the offense that relies heavily on him.
(-Risk) Winslow underwent arthroscopic knee surgery in the offseason but at least this time it was not a knee reconstruction. He is expected to be fine for all required minicamps and training camp and comes off a career best season of 1106 yards and five scores. That's 3rd best in the NFL in yardage among tight ends and only Tony Gonzalez had more passes thrown to him in 2007 than Winslow did. In a year with big passing numbers for tight ends, Winslow was one of the big four and a big value to those who drafted him.
One of the factors that scared people off last season was the lengthy injury history that left Winslow with only 32 starts over the last four years. Winslow is also pushing for a renegotiated contract despite having three years left on his current one. Speculation is that Winslow wants a renegotiation of his contract because he knows that his career will end early because of the knee surgeries. As he himself has said, he is not 100% from what he was but that's still better than most any tight end out there. When the Browns moved up in the draft to select Martin Rucker with their second pick (4.12) it was because the Browns are worried about Winslow's knees. And Winslow is only 25 years old.
Considering the number of passes and catches that Winslow had last year, five scores is lower than normal but he did turn in three games over 100 yards. Of some concern too is that Winslow started out on a hot streak with an average of 79 yards per game through week 12 but then tailed off without any scores and only around 46 yards on average over the final five games. In 2006, he never scored after week eight and only averaged around 45 yards per game for the final seven weeks. By the stats, it appears that he wears down starting around the middle of the season and has tailed off right during fantasy playoffs in both of the years that he has been able to play. Winslow is productive but he will always be a risk with those knees. And –he has been getting worse when you would need him most.
(-Risk) One of the biggest training camp watches will be Gates and even then, the information may be speculation more than facts. Gates comes off yet another great season with 75 catches for 984 yards and nine touchdowns that were #2 among all tight ends. But he injured his foot which initially was called a dislocated toe but later was revealed to be a torn plantar plate. Gates underwent surgery in February with a recovery time of four to six months. There is no certainty that Gates will be 100% for training camp or even by the start of the season.
The team stance is that he will be ready to play in September at worst case but there he will be a major concern until he actually lines up and turns in a big game. That risk has to drop his draft stock and he'll be one of the highest risk/reward players this summer. Until he shows up healthy, the best assumption is that he either misses or plays sparingly in the first month of the season and then returns to form.
Gonzalez comes off one of the better years in his career with league leading stats for NFL tight ends last year. He was thrown 154 passes, caught 99 and gained 1172 yards – all tops in the league. He's 32 years old this year and hasn't slowed down other than his longest catch being a career low 31 yards. He has only missed one game in the last eight years. He's been above 900 yards in each of the last five seasons. His touchdowns have apparently leveled off at five per season for the last two years but what's not to like about the most productive tight end in the history of the NFL?
There could be one thing – his quarterback this year. Damon Huard is not being used as a starter during minicamps and was the subject of trade speculation. Even HC Herm Edwards alluded to being comfortable going into the season with only Brodie Croyle, Tyler Thigpen and some unknown youngster to be named later. Not Huard. This is significant because in the games that Huard started, Gonzalez caught about seven passes and gained around 84 yards. Huard threw four of his five touchdowns. In five games started by Brodie Croyle, Gonzo averaged about five catches for 50 yards and just the one score. If Thigpen ends up the starter – who knows what to expect?
Gonzalez deserves to be one of the first tight ends selected and he will be heavily used. Chan Gailey did not use tight ends much when he was leading the Cowboys but that was when they had very little talent to use. And even then, David LaFleur managed 35 catches for 322 yards and seven scores one year. So the only question is if Gonzo will have just a good year or a great year? At 32 years old and with likely a worse quarterback situation, you cannot rely on more than just "good".
Heap comes off his worst season since his rookie year with only 239 yards and one score over six games. Heap suffered what was later disclosed as a torn hamstring but he has resumed training in the offseason and is expected to be healthy for training camp. In a season with a new offense, new coaches and potentially a new rookie quarterback, it may seem optimistic to expect his usual 800 yards and six scores. Then again – he may exceed that if he proves healthy. Cam Cameron brings in the same offense that bred Antonio Gates and Heap is only 28 and has several good seasons ahead of him.
The new offense and the use of Kyle Boller until Flacco is ready should spell at least a decent season if not a very good one. When installing a new offense, it is not unusual for teams to rely more heavily on the tight end initially anyway and Boller has always relied on Heap. When a quarterback gets his first starts of the season, he often relies on the tight end as well. Heap will be forgotten by some after his horrible 2007 showing but he is as talented as almost any tight end in the league and now gets a very tight end friendly offense. Heap should prove to be a very nice value pick in drafts this year – as long as his hamstring is healed.
Cooley comes off his standard good year with 66 catches for 786 yards and eight touchdowns. He's had roughly the same numbers for the last three seasons and never had less than six scores even as a rookie in 2004. He ranked #3 among all tight ends in touchdowns last year. The questions for 2008 is how will HC Jim Zorn's new offense change the remarkably consistent Cooley and will the rookie Fred Davis pose any threat to reducing Cooley's catches?
The plus to Cooley is that he is easily the player that Jason Campbell looks for in the end zone. No other receiver had more than three scores for the Skins last year. His fantasy value should be propped up with those touchdowns in the worst case and he is expected to have a significant role in the offense. With all the new receivers, he could end up with no big increase this year but his chemistry with Campbell should manage to keep him solid in fantasy terms. He is likely to have more action early in the year than later when the new passing game and players start to come together, so have other options just in case.
(-Risk) Apparently all the Giants needed to be a world champion was to lose their best two stars of Tiki Barber and Jeremy Shockey. Though he played through week 15, Shockey suffered a fractured fibula and was lost for the season. He already was having one of the worst seasons of his career with 619 yards on 57 catches and only three scores. He was replaced by the rookie Kevin Boss who had two scores in just the last three games. Shockey had been pretty consistent with around 700 yards per season and six or seven scores until last year. He has also been very consistent with getting injured since his six year career has yet to produce a 16 game season.
Shockey was the subject of heated trade talks with the New Orleans Saints that never materialized and that have been said to be closed since May. Shockey is a hard-nosed, determined player that is not adverse to talking badly about his team or situation. His absence in the huddle was said to have actually been a plus for Manning. Barring renewing trade talks, Shockey is back for 2009 and is signed through 2011.,br>
Boss was impressive in replacing Shockey but he was not much of a factor during the playoffs other than as a blocker. Shockey will likely see a small decrease in passes this year since the rushing game was impressive with Bradshaw and Jacobs and Shockey is not fan of blocking though he will do it. And as always, how many games does he miss this year? Usually just one per season and he plays hurt in several others. And the emotional Shockey plays knowing the Giants tried hard to get rid of him.
07-21-08 Update: Shockey was traded to the Saints in exchange for a second nad a fifth round draft pick next year. He brings an immediate expansion to the offense in New Orleans which has never used the tight end position much as a receiver. The trade gives Drew Brees a new target that comes in addition to, and not in place of, the weapons he used last year.
Finally in his fifth season, Clark delivered everything that the Colts hoped for when he caught 58 passes for 616 yards and led all NFL tight ends with 11 touchdowns. Clark had only scored 14 times in the four previous years combined. The absence of Marvin Harrison left Peyton Manning looking for a new target and Clark was the one standing near the goal line. Clark never was big on yardage with only four games over 60 yards and he never exceeded 95 yards in any game but he scored in nine different games including twice in three different match-ups.
Clark was always better at home where he scored eight times and had all three multiple touchdown games. He never developed into a "pseudo-wideout" with lots of catches and yards, he just excelled at being there for Manning when the end zone was close. The problem with relying on him for your fantasy team is that many weeks he served up minimal efforts like the six times he had less than 30 yards and no score. He is not nearly as consistent as other top fantasy tight ends because his value relied heavily on those touchdowns. The same was true in 2006 when he only had four touchdowns and other than two nice yardage games, he was only an average tight end.
Clark is still a solid choice for tight end but will likely be drafted too early by fantasy teams relying on him scoring all those touchdowns again instead of recognizing his much less - and more inconsistent – yardage as a tight end.
(+Upside) McMichael came over from the Dolphins last year and thanks to the Rams offensive scheme, he turned in the worst season of his six-year NFL career. He only had 39 catches for 429 yards and three scores which was higher than any Rams tight end had done in many years thanks to Mike Martz, but it was still a little worse than even McMichael's rookie season. The introduction of new OC Al Saunders offense this year will provide McMichael with a great chance to turn in his best season ever. This is the same offense that allowed Tony Gonzalez to become one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history and one that views the tight end position on equal terms with the wide receivers.
As Saunders is quick to point out, he has coached a Pro Bowl tight end for eight years straight and made Chris Cooley into the main passing target in Washington the last couple of seasons. While it is difficult to envision a top fantasy tight end in St. Louis after so many years of being one of the worst teams in using the position, get over that mindset. McMichael will see more passes this year than any before and returns to being a fantasy starter this year. In most leagues he will last just because of 2007 but he has the opportunity to be a top ten if not a top five tight end this year. The Rams will throw to him and Bulger can reduce his sacks with quicker throws to McMichael instead of waiting for Holt and company to get open farther down the field. Using McMichael more is just what Bulger needs.
In only his second season, Daniels enjoyed a solid showing last year when he caught 63 passes for 768 yards and three scores. His average of 12.2 yards per catch is among the highest for tight ends and there's a very good reason why Daniels could increase his totals next year – Matt Shaub.
Schaub only played in full games seven times last year thanks to a concussion and shoulder problem. When Schaub was not the full game starter, Daniels averaged around three catches for 35 yards per game. When Schaub was the starter for all four quarters, Daniels caught over five passes per game for around 64 yards. Roughly twice as good with Schaub as without him. And Daniels is only entering his third season. If you can reach Daniels as a back-up tight end, you should smile and even as a starter you should get decent points from your tight end. Daniels has nice upside this year that may not be immediately apparent.
Smith had the franchise tag slapped on him and signed the one-year tender for $4.5 million. That means he is in a contract year and is playing towards his payday in 2009. He comes off a down year with only 22 catches for 236 yards and one score but was hampered by groin and knee injuries last year and missed six games and was less than healthy in several others. But Smith is a target that Donovan McNabb likes to rely on. He had 50 catches for 611 yards and five scores in 2006 and 61 receptions for 682 yards and three scores the previous season.
Smith is not injury prone and 2007 was the first time in his five year career that he battled injuries and missed games. He should – McNabb willing – be good for the standard 650 yards and four scores again this year and could do more since he needs to show up for a bigger pay day. He isn't a difference maker at fantasy tight end, but he won't hurt your team either as long as he remains healthy.
The Raiders took Miller with their 2.06 pick of 2007 for one reason – to be a receiving tight end. His rookie season was more successful than most with 44 catches for 444 yards and three scores and Miller had at least one catch in every game. There are two reasons why you should expect Miller to take the next step up in 2008. First, he was successful as a rookie on a bad team and enters his second season when most tight ends experience their break out years. Secondly, he only played in one game where JaMarcus Russell was the starting quarterback and turned in his best game of the year with eight catches for 84 yards and the only NFL touchdown that Russell has ever thrown. No other receiver had more than two catches in that finale against the Chargers. Too early to call him a starting fantasy tight end, but a great back-up to own since he could become your starter. Those first-year starting quarterbacks almost always love their tight ends.
In just his second season, Scheffler turned in a very respectable 549 yards on 49 catches and scored five times. He averaged almost 50 yards per game in the second half of the season and had three of his touchdowns. Cutler already had been connecting with him as a rookie and 2007 only strengthened their chemistry. During the offseason, Scheffler lost 15 pounds and is down to 250 pounds. That makes him a worse blocker (which he was never great at anyway) and better as a receiver.
Denver has a slew of receivers this year but none have the sort of chemistry yet with Cutler that Scheffler has. At the very least, Scheffler should provide decent fantasy numbers for the first half of the season until the passing game can integrate the newer wideouts and even then, the Broncos schedule is tough enough that having an outlet like Scheffler will continue to post numbers. He makes a great #2 tight end and could end up playing well enough to warrant being your starter. Scheffler reinjured his foot in May but this year it was not broken and he is expected to be fine for training camp.
Bad news for the tight end that was supposed to be the freak of the 2006 NFL draft. Mike Martz is now the offensive coordinator and brings a scheme that has never, ever, used the tight end for much more than blocking, if in fact there is even one on the field during the many spread formations. Davis comes off a 52 catch game with 509 yards and four scores but that was with him being a "featured" player in the offense. He has dropped passes and run incorrect routes. His play has been error-prone and that is not something that will set well with Martz who demands precision.
This doesn't mean Davis has no chance, but he does have more of an uphill battle this year to even match 2007 production. Davis could be split out to the slot or outside and make for interesting match-ups but he needs to show he can learn the new offense in training camp. The best Davis will likely be this year is a fantasy back-up.
08-01-08 Update: Small adjustment upwards for Davis who has been of particular interest and focus by OC Mike Martz. That system has never used a tight end and Davis has been a relaitve bust with durability problems since joining the league but this could be his best opportunity. He's too risky to be a starting TE but would make a great back-up tight end from his potential.
(+Upside) When the Bears drafted Olsen with their 1.31 pick last year, it had little to do with needing another blocker. Olsen was the first tight drafted and came into the league as a receiving tight end. His rookie season saw him post 39 catches for 391 yards and two scores and he did record at least one reception in his seven final games. Five times he had four or more catches and for a rookie, he had a very solid and promising season. And of course, most stud tight ends will break out in their second season. Desmond Clark still posted bigger numbers but that will change this season.
Going against that chance is the likelihood that Kyle Orton remains the starting quarterback. In three common games last year, Olsen only had five catches for 45 yards but that was a small sample to rely on and Orton will have to do more if he expects to hold on to his job. Clark will still figure in as well, so Olsen won't be getting all the tight end action anyway.
But just as important is that Olsen is a talented receiver who still had a good rookie year and heads into his second season with a team that just dumped all the notable wideouts from 2007 and replaced them with even bigger question marks. The Bears also are facing one of the easiest passing schedules in the league which should benefit Olsen. It is a bit of optimism to expect any Chicago receiver to carry much fantasy value but Olsen is in a situation where he will improve from 2007 and could surprise if the Bears will use him to his potential.
After three seasons of improving play, Watson started 2008 on a tear with five scores in his first five games including a six catch, 107 yard effort against the Browns in week five that saw him score twice. But then he suffered an ankle injury the following week and was dogged by it the rest of the year. He missed four games and played at a far less effective level the rest of the season. In the first playoff game, he was back with two catches for two touchdowns and then only had one more catch in the remaining two games.
During the offseason, Watson underwent ankle surgery to repair cartilage damage and remove scar tissue. He is expected to be back to full strength no later than the start of the season if not for the entire preseason. Watson underplayed the importance of the surgery as any true Patriot would. His best season – before the addition of Moss and Welker – had him gaining 643 yards and three scores which is not enough to warrant being a fantasy starter. Add in playing for a team that makes a mockery of the injury report and he cannot be considered more than a fantasy back-up this year.
The rookie was impressive in replacing Jeremy Shockey for the final three games. He did not have a catch in week 16 but scored in both weeks 15 and 17 with a high game of four catches for 50 yards against the Patriots. During the playoffs, Boss had exactly one catch in each game and did not score. As a rookie it was overall encouraging enough that the Giants shopped Shockey around in the offseason but found no takers. Boss will have a minimal role this year but will fill in when Shockey misses his annual "out for one game".
07-21-08 Update: Boss gets a healthy bump up in the rankings thanks to the trade of Jeremy Shockey to the Saints. Boss was impressive as a rookie and while he won't produce Shockey-esque numbers this year, his production obviously jumps.
After seven seasons with the Falcons, Crumpler signed a two-year, $5.25 million contract with the Titans and brings the sort of tight end that Steve Young needs. In Atlanta, Crumpler was good for around 700 to 800 yards and around six scores per year when he was the primary receiving option in that offense. It could easily happen again here since the Titans have always relied on their tight ends.
One note of caution here is that there is some speculation that Crumpler has a degenerative knee condition and many teams initially were interested in him but dropped out. HC Jeff Fisher is most excited about Crumpler's ability to score and that is definitely something that this passing game needs. He's probably not going to rekindle his glory days in Atlanta now that he is 30 years old but he should be no less than solid and could become a primary target near the endzone.
After three seasons with the Packers, Lee finally took over as the primary tight end during 2007 and turned in an impressive 48 catches for 575 yards and six scores. That was almost double his four year career totals in every category. He did most of his damage early in the year with receptions and yardage but scored all but one touchdown in the second half of the season. Now that Bubba Franks is gone, Lee is the clear passing option at tight end which could account for more this year as Aaron Rodgers takes over. First year quarterbacks typically like to rely on their tight ends but in the Packers case, that may not be true since there will be many spread formations that will not use a tight end. A very solid pick as a back-up tight end for your team, he can be used as a starter. In any case, he won't be a difference maker for you either way.
Miller comes off a career best season with 47 catches for 566 yards and seven touchdowns in the new offense installed last season which should be reason to expect the same or better this year but that probably won't happen. Through week ten of 2007, Miller had 421 yards on 31 catches and six of his seven scores. The final six weeks only saw him score once and total of 155 yards on 16 catches. He bounced back in the first playoff game with 85 yards and a score but that was with Parker gone and the Steelers searching for anyone to help. This year the Steelers have added Rashard Mendenhall and Limas Sweed plus return Parker, Hines Ward and Santonio Holmes. Chances are Roethlisberger will have plenty of targets besides his tight end.
(+Upside) Troupe signed a two-year contract with the Buccaneers to provide a challenge to Alex Smith for the starting job. Troupe peaked in his second season with the Titans when he caught 55 passes for 530 yards and scored four times but the last two seasons with Vince Young has seen him little used and often injured. He only managed 18 catches and two scores in those seasons and is ready for a change of place.
The Buccaneers have not seen Alex Smith take the next step though he has been adequate. This is actually the perfect chance for Troupe to get a "do-over" for his career with a team that uses tight ends for 50+ catches each season and that threw nine scores to the position in 2007. There is a chance that Troupe and Smith just cancel each other out and neither have much fantasy value this year but – if either is to step up, it will more likely be Troupe. His touchdown totals could be good this year since Jerramy Stevens had four scores on just 18 catches and even Anthony Becht turned in two touchdowns in 2007. The tight ends in Tampa Bay caught more touchdowns than all wideouts combined. In a position that has so few sleepers that make a difference, Troupe is an interesting back-up tight end for your team that could surprise and if not, there's always another tight end to cover a bye week on your waiver wire.
(+Upside) Searching for a difference maker on the offense, the Jets traded their second and fourth round picks to the Packers in order to draft Keller with the 1.30 selection. He became the first tight end drafted in 2008 and comes in for one reason – to be a receiver. Keller is no blocker and did very little of it in college. But he excelled at Purdue where he was a wide receiver but bulked up and became a dangerous tight end. At 6'3" and 244 pounds, he is freakishly fast with 4.5/40 speed in a position where most top players are running 4.7 or worse. He has great hands and can make the difficult catches even when the pass is not thrown well – that will serve him very well on the Jets.
Keller has definite dynasty value because he should develop into a very good NFL tight end limited only by what the quarterback situation is. But bad quarterbacks often prefer to rely on their tight ends anyway. He will share time with a very pissed off Chris Baker this year and then likely take over as the primary in 2009 – if he doesn't do that during the this season. This is no blocker. He is a very dangerous weapon used correctly and it speaks volumes that he was drafted prior to any wideouts this year.
08-07-08 Update: It is still early to expect much more than a normal rookie season with marginal productivity but the addition of Favre is a big help for Keller's learning curve.
(+Upside) Utecht could be an interesting player to track this year. The Bengals signed him to a three-year, $9 million contract when four years in the NFL have only produced a total of 800 yards and three touchdowns. Utecht could help the rushing game as a blocker but OC Bob Bratkowski has indicated that Utecht could help pick up the slack now that Chris Henry is gone. That notion is hard to accept considering that the Bengals ranked 32nd in the league with only 43 passes thrown to tight ends last year. It has been many years and several offensive coordinators since the Bengals used tight ends for much more than blocking and even then, it was platooning three of them.
The Bengals drafted three wideouts hoping to compensate for the loss of Chris Henry and the potential loss/holdout of Chad Johnson so there shouldn't be a shortage of receivers though the quality may be lagging. Utecht has never caught more than 37 passes in a season and the Bengals would have to almost reinvent their scheme to start using the position with any regularity. Add in the team wants more spread formations to hopefully reduce the defense stacking against the run and Utecht would do well enough to match 2007. There us upside here but make sure Utecht is nothing more than a backup for your team.
No doubt at Bill Parcell's direction, the Dolphins traded a 2009 fourth round pick with the Cowboys in exchange for Fasano and throw-in LB Akin Ayodele. With David Martin showing inconsistency last year, the new offense will see Fasano take over in Miami after twiddling his thumbs behind Jason Witten in Dallas. The tight end will be more heavily used in the new offense by OC Dan Henning and Fasano will get the lion's share of that action. In two seasons in Dallas, Fasano only had 14 catches both seasons and has scored only once but those numbers will increase this year. Fasano makes an interesting back-up tight end for your team with some upside.
After a rookie season that only saw him catch 13 passes for 126 yards, Lewis improved to 37 receptions for 391 yards and two scores. That will likely prove to be his ceiling in this offense that has improved the wideouts for this season. Lewis also tailed off over the final month with only five catches for 63 yards and two games that had no catches. He makes a fantasy back-up tight end and nothing more.
Clark enters his tenth NFL season and sixth with the Bears. He comes off one of his better seasons with 545 yards and six scores but Greg Olsen is entering his second year and will almost certainly take over as the primary receiving tight end – which is why they drafted him. But Clark will continue to figure in as a blocker and should still carry some fantasy value. The Bears have a very attractive passing schedule this year and the wideouts are all new on the team. That should let Clark still matter as a receiver for at least the first half of the season if not beyond. He's not worthy of being a fantasy starter but may be worth a bye week fill-in if the Bears struggle to rush again and are forced to throw.
While there was some hope that the demise of Denny Green's offense would usher in the actual use of the tight end in Arizona, HC Ken Whisenhunt did not use the position nearly as much as hoped. Pope had the best season for an Arizona tight end in years and did score five touchdowns. But he only caught 23 passes for 238 yards. The second year of the offense could see some increase here but it was rare for there to be more than two passes thrown to the position in any given week and Pope suffered a dislocated ankle and missed the final three games of the regular season.
Pope was used as a goal line option and little else since Fitzgerald and Boldin continued to dominate the box scores every week. At 6'8", Pope is one of the tallest players in the entire NFL but he could see some challenge this year from Jerame Tuman who had played for the Steelers. Tuman is primarily a blocker though and is coming off a back injury, so expect Pope to continue to be the primary receiving tight end. Unfortunately, the new scheme still has not involved the position much other than the occasional endzone pass.
08-03-08 Update: Leonard Pope is still slow to get back from his ankle injury of last year and Ben Patrick has been taking first team snaps. This doesn't make Patrick that attractive but it does send Pope down in the rankings.
Shiancoe got out from under Jeremy Shockey's shadow in 2007 when he signed with the Vikings just in time to see Adrian Peterson take over and make the tight end position worth even less. Shiancoe finished the year with only 27 catches for 323 yards and one score. Over the final six weeks, he only had eight catches for 51 yards. No need to draft him. His only touchdown wasn't even thrown by Tarvaris Jackson.
The Seahawks used their 2.07 pick in the NFL draft to grab Carlson as the second tight end drafted this year. The Notre Dame product comes in at 6'5" and 252 pounds and brings the promise of the best receiving tight end that Hasselbeck has ever had. He runs a 4.7/40 and has the height and hands to become a very nice target for a team that has been spreading the ball around more in recent years. He is a rookie and will take some time to learn the ropes but there is a chance that he not only will become the primary tight end this year, he could challenge in training camp. If he can play well enough in the preseason to become the #1 tight end, he will have fantasy value in this offense. He won't likely have enough work to warrant being a starter but he is one to watch and a nice pick in a dynasty league for 2009.
Patrick enters his second season and had two scores as a rookie but only seven passes. He has little or no fantasy value and could lose out to Jerame Tuman who was signed for two years in the offseason. The Cardinals have not involved the tight ends enough to warrant even a free agent pick on Patrick if Pope was to be injured again.

NEW ORLEANS - The 16 young New Orleans musicians who went to Japan on a musical and cultural exchange came home Monday night after a very rewarding and successful trip.
Eight of the student were from the Tipitina's intern program and eight were O. Perry Walker students.
The Chosen Ones Brass Band traveled across northern Japan in areas that were hit hard by the earthquake and tsunami.
Their goal was to bring New Orleans music to the people and students there.
The trip was funded by the Tipitina's Foundation and the Japan Foundation.
Among the cities they visited was a town called Kesennuma, which was hit hard by the tsunami.
A student band there, The Swing Dolphins, lost their instruments, but received new ones from the Tipitina's Foundation.
The young New Orleans musicians brought joy to the people there in a special concert with The Swing Dolphins. This concert was just one of several they performed overseas.
It was a big learning experience for these fine young men, Eric Paulsen, who traveled with the group, said.

Donald Trump, mega-chump
The internet was all a twitter (pun intended) over the complete and utter destruction of one Donald Trump by one Danny Zuker. Trump, you know. Zuker writes for the show "Modern Family".
It's all here. Talk about a thing of beauty--with surgical precision, Zuker dismantles America's #1 dirigible. I may be be dating myself here, but this is Ali vs Quarry time.
It is a fool's game to debate a comedy writer on Twitter--the service was made for short, concise punchy 'n pithy soundbytes. Which is what a comedy writer does for a living. It's a testimony to Trump's arrogance and years of yes-men lying to him that he even ventured into this battle. Anyone that's ever been dumb enough to heckle a skilled comic knows what will happen to you in a club, this was even worse.
Thing is, just about anyone with access to Google could have done a comparible job. Maybe not as skillfully as Zuker did, but damned close. The reason being obvious--Donald Trump is easily one of the most repellent, loathsome public figures in America today. Which is saying something given how crowded the field is, but Trump is extra-special in that he's not only the walking talking definition of douchebag, he's also a massive failure at what he is supposed to be an expert in, business.
This is a man whose primary business declared bankruptcy three times in 15 years. He purchased an airline and drove it into the ground in 4 years. And as so many speculators did in the last decade, he had a mortgage firm--that didn't go bust in 2008 like the others, because it was already DOA.
Minus dad's contacts and cash, he'd have been nothing. Yet, at one point, he was the GOP's front-runner in 2012. How on earth is that possible?
Simple. He's rich. Not successful, rich (and nowhere near as rich as he says he is). Conflating wealth with success is one of America's great shames. As the nation has no royalty, it had to invent one and as its Founding Fathers were landed gentry, it's been that way since.
Donald Trump is a loser. That his fans got a vicarious mental hard-on every time he bellowed out "you're fired" on TV without realizing that the poor victim of abuse was a lot more like them than Trump says everything you need know about America's Tories. They're losers too.
Repellent? Loathesome? Come now, Johnny. You're being way to easy on T-Rump.
Get him next J.A. Couldn't agree more here and was gleeful at the exchange too!
But it is how we measure success.
Anyone can claim to be successful in their own terms. But wealth defines the extent to which others agree, because it involves other people handing over their money to you.
So the new biting journalist, Johnny Angel, inherits the mantle of Progressive in Chief from Tim Redman.
Good investigative work once again, JAW. Trump got creamed in this twitter exchange.
Keep up the good work.
And wasn't he tweeting after last falls' election which didn't go his way trying to stir up violence and revolution? Why isn't he in prison for sedition? When did we first start having him and his doings thrown at us by the media, around 1980? Never could stand him, and someone did some kind of survey or study with women years ago asked to rate prominent men as "superior" or "inferior", he was voted into the "inferior male" category along with Charles Manson, Ted Bundy and other assorted wrongdoing creeps and criminals. I totally agree. Kudos to Mr. Zuker---note how he evaded the specifics about the Chinese-made clothes, and how entitled he feels to the world's attention while deriding others as attention-seekers. What a joke. Go get him, Johnny!
are all you commenters real people actually patting this guy on the back for rehashing a celebrity twitter war from four days ago? wasn't news then, isn't even facebook share-worthy now.
I don't think the expiration date on something funny is four days. Aren't you making it a little too obvious that you are some angry useless troll that looks to take any topic and turn it into some attack on the blog host because you don't like his politics?
What is far more surprising is that you take the time to criticize what other people find funny or relevant. Maybe you are spending too much time in your own pants, patting yourself on the back is just another form of masturbation.
It's like attacking Rachel Maddow - too easy to be real sport or in any way satisfying.
A better critique of JAW is simply that he talks about the few things he knows (LA, celebrities, pop music) rather than provide Bay Area coverage in what is a Bay Area publication.
God knows Tim was flawed, but it seems we have swapped an experienced journalist for a pie-eyed drug-addled blogger.
funny - questionable. relevant - eh... politics? come on now. just call it the "bitching about internet memes blog" and i'll go back to diddling myself. happily.
Well, the bigger issue is that Trump represents everything that the GOP stands for, including, but not limited to its central policy: "no new taxes, ever." Tell me, how does this not empower Foreign lenders such as China and Saudi Arabia? For Trump to claim "China is a threat" obfuscates the reality that it is the GOP's agendas that emasculate the State's ability to even regulate its own markets.
Oh, I forgot!
That's the whole point of "no new taxes, ever".
Steve Jones is on the road doing INVESTIGATIVE reporting in the SFBG tradition.
Meanwhile, Johnny Angel is steering the vessel.
And steering it well, I might add!
Is that what you meant, "Irene"?
We haven't had this much sock puppetry on SFBG since RossGate and the dozen or so women all supporting Ross, who turned out to be just one whackjob windbag who didn't even live in SF.
Oh no that's not my thing. JAW brings a fresh breath here. He provides the leeway so that Steve Jones can go out on the road and do investigative reporting. Can't wait to see his stuff, In the meantime, here's Johnny Angel
and perhaps for the rest of his life.
Then again, unlike Redmond with his million dollar home and his six-figure earning lawyer wife (does she do Ellis evictions, I wonder?), for Steven the paycheck actually matters because he has rent to pay to his landlord.
And it's not as if there is a wealth of alternative career opportunities for a guy having a mid-life crisis whose only skillset is expertise in Burning Man. So maybe SJ will swallow his pride and stick it out.
Like all of us,Trump is far from perfect, but try to look at the good in him.
Trump is a good father, provides employment for thousands, and his hit show the apprentice has provided millions to charity.
I don't believe Donald trump deserves to be referred to as a "douchebag".
Writing this article Johnny is simply exposing your nasty little self.
Your not even a pimple on Donald Trumps Ass.
powerful than Johnny.
Envy is a bitch.
D Trump inherited 30 million more dollars than Johnny.
Keep on lickin' them boots, Trollsky.

My man, my mellow, Six Foot Eight Charlie Tate turns one year younger today. For those of you who don't know him, one half of King Kooba, one huge Colossus, Charlie Tate has been known to hold down the bass guitar playing with the Big Cheese Allstars, ever so smoothly work the chisel shaping custom furniture for my living room and has been known to make about a 100 beats a day coining the phrase 'beats department.' Seriously, i send this dude an accapella in the morning and by 1pm, he's in my office with a cd of 3 remixes all different styles. More impressive is his catalogue of releases, under two aliases check the King Kooba joints and the Colossus jawns as he began stalking the studio in 1995. From broken beat to hip hop and some straight up soul; the dude produces like a chameleon. So it's today that we honor Charlie's born day, representing Londontown and West Oakland alike, you deserve to CRUSH that hamburger, son!
