From the Publisher"The rallies themselves take up about 70 pages of the book, which has plenty of good good colour photos right through it. Robson has produced another good book in Veloce Rally Giants series." – New Zealand Classic Car
Classic Ford, December 2008
A brilliant road car but an even better rally car, the works Escort Cosworth (later Escort WRC) is celebrated in this book by 'Classic Ford'-contributor, Graham Robson. Covering its design, development and career as a rally tool coverage of the people involved, and all the important events the cars competed on, it's packed with great pictures and is well worth putting on your Christmas wish list.
Old Stager, December 2008
The author's usual in-depth analysis describes the genesis of the RS Cosworth and the subsequent 'stopgap' design World Rally Car Escorts well as providing a detailed history of the car's rallying careers. Interesting to learn that the 'ACE,' project– a mule which married the shortened 4x4 Sierra Cosworth platform with a modified MKIII RS Escort shell – was up and running even before the Sierra Cosworth 4x4 was on sale. The whole project had been kick-started at a meeting in 1988 between Stuart Turner, Peter Ashcroft, Mike Moreton and John Wheeler. As Robson explains. the RS Cosworth was a rally car that was put into production, rather than a road car which happened to be good at competition. Ford had originally planned to produce 5000 as required by the regulations at the time. However, by 1991 the requirements had been halved to 2500 units and the assembly contract went to Karmann ... in the end, 7145 were produced from 1992 to January 1996. The personalities involved all come under Robson's no-nonsense spotlight. Despite all of the upheavals, Malcolm Wilson's M-sport managed to build two reliable newly-designed cars in a couple of months for the 1997 Monte and almost managed a fairy tale result. Sainz finished runner-up behind the works Subaru lmpreza of Piero Liatti. As with the rest of this 'Rally Giants' series, the book is packed with photographs – many from the Ford Archives as well as Martin Holmes' personal archive – with plenty of photos of personalities.
Australian Classic Car, January 2009
In his 'Rally Giants' series, Graham Robson aims to describe the shift in motor sport from reliability trials to the modern idea of road rallying. Today's rally vehicles are engineered and driven with a focus on speed and strength first, and reliability second. They are high performance machines – with road-going homologation specials built pretty much as an afterthought to comply with regulations – not existing road cars tuned to stay the distance. Events are composed of a series of shorter intense races on closed road special stages instead of one long distance to endure over public roads. Robson's series approaches these changes through the development and competition histories of milestone vehicles, like the Ford Escort RS Cosworth in this book. By the late 1980s, Ford Motorsport (FM) was faced with the erosion of Ford's competition status since the 1970s, an era dominated by the successes of the Escort Mk1 and 2. The RS200 had been too little, too late to stop the slide against Audi, Toyota, Subaru and Mitsubishi, Fiat, Peugeot and Lancia. The Sierra had looked promising but was too bulky and heavy to continue as it was. It was critical that the new Cosworth succeed. Not only had Ford been the only British make consistently at the top level of world motor spot but it had also consistently made its technology and developments available to private buyers. This fact brings Robson to point out why new rally and race cars are important at all. The release of their homologation models affects car buyers' expectations and thus, other manufacturers. Customers learn quickly what is possible from one year to the next, and expect to be able to buy it. For example, once 4-wheel-drive was accepted in rally cars after the Audi Quattro's precedent, it was adopted for the Sierra Cosworth and refined in the lighter, nimbler RS to create the rallying breakthrough Ford needed. Car showrooms consequently began to reflect these changes. Stuart Turner, director of FM at the outset of the project, and his team had all agreed that their next rally car had to be based on an existing mainstream model. "Why don't we see if we can take the platform and running gear from a Sierra Cosworth 4x4, shorten it, then see if an Escort body will fit on it?" This line of development was more or less followed. The RS was 4½ years in the making, under four different directors, but it was worth it. In 1993, its first year, it won five World Championship rallies. Readers will gain insight into Ford's engineering methods and enjoy reading about the Ford Motorsport design team's dynamics – the members really did work together. As one person's idea was pursued, problems naturally emerged which other members would solve. Later chapters in the book explain the need to develop a World Rally Car, and the changes required to turn the Cosworth into that car. Photo buffs will relish the color images in the 'Rally Years' section taken on location across Europe, Africa and Asia – wherever the RS was competing. Personally, I liked reading the collection of biographies of engineers, rally drivers and other influential people in the Cosworth's development. Among many team drivers taking the RS Cosworth to victory, Carlos Sainz was a standout, driving during 1996, a top year for the RS. An early driver worth getting to know was Francois Delacourt, and dashing, talented Ari Vatanen is regarded as a true enthusiast's hero.

Michael Sam not being viewed as just player
- 4:54 pm Monday, September 1st, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
The NFL, like any sports league, would like you to believe it's not exclusionary. The problem with that expectation is a league can't speak or act for individual team builders. That's why Michael Sam is out of a job today — and for anybody who believes Sam's sexuality has nothing to do with him being out of work today, keep reading.
The St. Louis Rams released the former Missouri defensive lineman, who became the first athlete in history to disclose publicly before the start of his career that he was homosexual. The Rams don't deserve criticism for cutting Sam because they [More]
Report: Petrino, Grantham already feuding (updated)
- 10:20 pm Monday, August 18th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
When "reformed" Louisville coach Bobby Petrino hired former Georgia defensive coordinator Todd Grantham, it seemed like a perfect marriage — if one were to assume a petroleum truck parking in a warehouse full of plutonium is a perfect marriage.
So maybe this won't come as a surprise:
According to SI.com, Petrino has "feuded often" with Grantham since hiring him in January. The relationship between the two is so bad, one unidentified source told S.I., that Petrino would have fired Grantham by now if he had not given him a five-year contract worth nearly $1 million annually (which, by the way, wasn't [More]
Falcons can survive without Baker, not others
- 10:25 am Monday, August 18th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
There have been two general reactions from Falcons' fans since Sam Baker was lost for the season: 1) OMG, we lost our starting left tackle; or 2) That's OK, we only loss Sam Baker.
Both are understandable. The left tackle protects the quarterback's blind side. Kind of important. But Baker widely has been considered a bust since the Falcons traded up to draft him late in the first round in 2008, and part of the reason is he's been injured so often.
He played only eight games (five starts) in his rookie season. He started only six games in 2011 and four [More]
Roddy White meets winner of big Twitter bet
- 7:39 pm Wednesday, August 6th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
FLOWERY BRANCH — In the Twitterverse, where too often the silly becomes serious and the serious turns silly, Roddy White says he learned a valuable lesson.
"Never bet anything unless you're willing to pay up," the Falcons' wide receiver said Wednesday.
White actually more than paid up for what in reality was a goof bet with a fan last March. He told a follower on Twitter before the first-round NCAA tournament game between Duke and Mercer that if the 14th seeded Bears from Macon upset the heavily favored Blue Devils, he would buy the man Falcons season tickets.
Mercer won. White paid off … [More]
Poll: Falcons open camp, what's your pick?
- 9:59 am Friday, July 25th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
FLOWERY BRANCH — I usually get a feeling how good or bad I think a football team will be. That doesn't mean I'm right, but something about the previous season and the offseason at least gives me some sense of direction.
But about the 2014 Falcons: I have no idea what's going to happen.
If you missed it, I have a column posted on MyAJC.com on the start of training camp later today. Here's a free link to it.
I've posted a simple poll because I'm curious what you think. Rather than guess how many games this team will win, let's focus [More]
Falcons make wrong call saying yes to 'Hard Knocks'
- 2:20 pm Thursday, June 12th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
The Falcons have decided to be the subject of the annual NFL-HBO voyeuristic enterprise called, "Hard Knocks."
Well. This isn't the worst decision they've ever made in recent years. There was that one year they hired Bobby Petrino.
So let me understand this: The same organization that fell apart a season ago, and not just because of injuries, has decided to let a cable television show go behind the scenes in training camp and follow players in practices and meetings and areas of Fort Flowery Branch normally off limits to non-team personnel?
Headquarters in Flowery Branch will be a sea of wires, cameras [More]
Weatherspoon out (Is this happening again?)
- 9:49 pm Tuesday, June 10th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
Last September, when the Falcons were in only the early stages of what would become a calamitous string of injuries, I offered my, "Can't Afford To Lose" top 10 list of players. The list: Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Roddy White, Tony Gonzalez and Steven Jackson on offense; Sean Weatherspoon, Osi Umenyiora, William Moore, Jonathan Babineaux and Asante Samuel on defense. (Looking back, I don't know if I overrated the aging Samuel before last season or he just couldn't get healthy.)
This year's list wouldn't change much, which means the Falcons just took a big hit — and they didn't even [More]
Holiday 6-pack: Will Nats close on Braves?
- 12:01 pm Monday, May 26th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
Good morning. This is the day to celebrate our true heroes. Memorial Day began as a day to honor the soldiers who died in the Civil War but now serves to recognize all Americans who died while in the military. This isn't a day for politics. To borrow from Mark Twain: "Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it."
And now, on the backside of this barbecue weekend, a six-pack of thoughts on a six-pack of teams:

Atlanta will get Super Bowl despite weather
- 10:32 am Tuesday, May 20th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
The Falcons decided to hold an "historic" (quoting from a news release) ground-breaking for their new stadium Monday night, complete with fireworks. It was a curiously timed event in that the team has already bulldozed the first of two churches to make room for the stadium and has been plowing land for several weeks.
But NFL owners were in town for spring meetings so actually it makes perfect sense. This was all for show. It was for Falcons owner Arthur Blank to try to change the talking points in Atlanta for residents who still may be unhappy about public money being [More]
Falcons not wowing Vegas: Are concerns real?
- 9:15 am Tuesday, May 13th, 2014 by Jeff Schultz
According to the first post-draft odds in Las Vegas the Falcons are 40-1 win the Super Bowl (via Bovada). That places them tied for only 13th overall, and maybe more significantly only tied for eighth among NFC teams.
These odds fall in line with previously released over-under win totals. The Falcons are projected to win only eight games in 2014 season (via Cantor gaming), which puts them behind New Orleans and Carolina in the NFC South, as well as Seattle, San Francisco, Green Bay, Chicago and Philadelphia in the conference. (Complete odds are listed below.)
As we know, oddsmakers set odds based [More]

Rangers reinstate Cruz for AL Wild Card tiebreaker
Arlington, TX (Sports Network) - The Texas Rangers will have their power bat back in the lineup, activating slugger Nelson Cruz from the restricted list in time for Monday's do-or-die contest with the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Rangers and Rays both finished 91-71 after 162 games, and will play a tiebreaker to determine the second Wild Card winner and the rights to face the Cleveland Indians in a one-game playoff.
Texas designated outfielder Joey Butler to make room on the 40-man roster for Cruz, who has completed his 50-game suspension for his involvement in the Biogenesis scandal.
Despite being out since August 5, Cruz still placed second on the team in home runs and RBI behind third baseman Adrian Beltre. In 108 games, Cruz smacked 27 homers and drove in 76 runs with a .269 average.
Cruz is in the starting lineup as the designated hitter and will bat sixth. The slugger has good numbers against Rays starter David Price, going 9-for-21 with three homers and five RBI in 23 career plate appearances.

King of the Travellers (15)
Time Out rating:
Not yet rated
Time Out says
Mon Mar 25 2013
This ambitious low-budget drama set in the Irish Traveller community has shades of 'The Godfather' and 'Romeo and Juliet'. Trouble is, a bit of 'Father Ted' slips in there too, with some unintentionally hilarious lines and cardboard-stiff amateurish acting.
John Connors is John Paul, a young ex boxer who could have been a contender, but who now makes do fighting bareknuckle bouts. When a rival clan rumoured to have been responsible for his dad's murder settle their caravans on a nearby site, he swears revenge – and promptly falls in love with the head of the family's daughter. There are some gnarly authentic lines here – 'I'd break your neck like a twig, boyo' – and a decent twist, but 'King of the Travellers' is punching above its weight.

The National Defense Authorization Act for 2012 has been assailed by civil libertarians for its provisions which allow for the indefinite detention of American citizens without trial. Now the hacktivist collective Anonymous has joined the battle in its own distinctive manner, declaring war on the members of Congress who voted for the legislation under the operation name #OpAccountable.
"This is an open letter to the US leaders," the operation wrote in a document released on Friday, which cited both the NDAA and attempts to pass so-called anti-piracy legislation that critics fear would amount to preemptive censorship of the Internet.
"We have watched as you have violated the very laws that guarantee your power. We have witnessed your fall from Representatives of the People to Representatives of Greed and Corruption. We've been watching you systematically destroy the rights of your own people, one law at a time."
The letter goes on in the flamboyant style typical of Anonymous to state, "We are now here to undo your sordid life's work in its entirety. No longer will your transgressions go unnoticed. No longer will you enslave the people. The world will know of your violations against the rights of the citizens you were elected to represent."
After quoting all ten articles of the Bill of Rights, it concludes, "Every time you violate these amendments we will ensure the people are aware of your actions. You may have previously succeeded in concealing your actions, but that time has come to an end. You were elected by us, and you can be removed by us."
The letter was accompanied by a document listing all available Twitter accounts of members of Congress, including both those who voted for and those who voted against the legislation. Another document has since been posted giving basic biographical and political information on three senators, with the promise of more to come. It is not clear, however, what Anonymous intends to do with these releases.

The first $1.5 million in funding comes from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to create a collaborative research center headquartered in Sioux Falls.
In each of the remaining years, $3 million is expected to be allocated for research.
U.S. Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota calls the planned research a "major development" for Indian Country. He says the area's reservations face unique health challenges and that such investments will improve Native Americans' lives.

E 374K • Elizabethan Poetry and Prose-- HONORS
|Barret, J
Course Description
Please refer to the course schedule for course days, time, room location, prerequisites and possible cross-listings: http://registrar.utexas.edu/schedules/
In this Honors seminar, we will read some of the most influential, most experimental and most powerful poetry and prose in the English language. We will explore questions of artistic representation, nationalism, religious reformation, new audiences, genre, form and linguistic innovation (to name but a few) by immersing ourselves in the fictions of an age renowned for its insatiable literary appetite. Beginning with the lyrics of Wyatt and Surrey, we will survey the major shorter poems of such authors as William Shakespeare (including the Sonnets), Michael Drayton, Samuel Daniel, George Chapman and John Donne. We will turn also to large-scale poetic and imaginative projects including Sir Philip Sidney's Old Arcadia and Edmund Spensers Faerie Queene (Book III). As we investigate the particularities of the Elizabethan dedication to poetic creation, we will also encounter some critical writing from the period itself (Sidneys Defense of Poetry and George Gascoignes Certain Notes of Instruction, for example). This seminar culminates in a research paper, so we will familiarize ourselves with research tools and resources throughout the course. Whether reading supplementary critical essays, looking at early printed versions of our primary texts in sessions at the Harry Ransom Center, or completing short research exercises, research methodology will be an integral part of the course and our collective discussion.
Grading Policy
Written assignments will include brief research-oriented writing assignments (1-2 pages each), short close-reading essays (approx. 3-4 pages each), a research paper prospectus, and a final research essay (10-12 pages). Short essays: 30%; Research assignments: 15%; Final essay: 30%; Participation, etc.: 25%

Catholics, world leaders welcome church's new pope
World leaders sent in their congratulations and Catholics around the world were celebrating Wednesday after the Vatican announced the election of Argentine Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio to the papacy - making him the first pontiff from the Americas.
The Associated Press
World leaders sent in their congratulations and Catholics around the world were celebrating Wednesday after the Vatican announced the election of Argentine Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio to the papacy - making him the first pontiff from the Americas.
As bells tolled and crowds cheered across Latin America, President Barack Obama offered warm wishes to Pope Francis and said the selection speaks to the strength and vitality of the New World.
"I offer our warm wishes to His Holiness Pope Francis," Obama said. "As a champion of the poor and the most vulnerable among us, he carries forth the message of love and compassion that has inspired the world for more than 2,000 years."
In Europe, British Prime Minister David Cameron, French President Francois Hollande, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel also issued statements of congratulations.
Wednesday was "a momentous day for the 1.2 billion Catholics around the world," Cameron said in a message posted to Twitter, while Merkel, the daughter of a Lutheran pastor, said millions of Catholics and non-Catholics alike would be looking to the new pope for guidance not just in questions of faith but in matters of peace, justice and protecting creation.
Merkel said she was particularly happy for Christians in Latin America, who now had one of their own called to be pope for the first time. Francis was elected after German-born Pope Benedict XVI stepped down last month, saying he lacked the strength to continue in the job.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he looked forward to cooperation with the Holy See under Pope Francis' "wise leadership," while European Union leaders Herman Van Rompuy and Jose Manuel Barroso wished the new Catholic leader "a long and blessed pontificate."
The atmosphere across Latin America brimmed with excitement and surprise, with people bursting into tears and cheers on streets from Buenos Aires to Caracas, Venezuela.
"It's incredible!" said Martha Ruiz, 60, who was weeping tears of emotion in the Argentine capital. She said she had been in many meetings with the cardinal and said, "He is a man who transmits great serenity."
At the St. Francis of Assisi church in the colonial Old San Juan district in Puerto Rico, church secretary Antonia Veloz exchanged jubilant high-fives with Jose Antonio Cruz, a Franciscan friar.
"It's a huge gift for all of Latin America. We waited 20 centuries. It was worth the wait," said Cruz, wearing the brown cassock tied with a rope that is the signature of the Franciscan order.
Arcilia Litchfield, a 57-year-old tourist from Albuquerque, New Mexico, was walking down the cobblestone streets when they glanced at a TV and saw that a new pope had been chosen. She and her husband then went to the San Juan Cathedral, where the remains of Spanish conquistador Juan Ponce de Leon are buried.
"It's historic. It's the first time a pope has been chosen from this part of the world," she said. "It hasn't sunk in yet."
Even in Communist Cuba, there was pride as church bells rang to celebrate the news. Elsewhere on the continent, people traded stories about the new pontiff.
"You would see him taking public buses," said Maurizzio Pavia, an Argentine now working in Puerto Rico, who said he was familiar with Bergoglio because they both came from the same region. "He would cook his own food. He would not let anyone serve him."
In the United States, the archbishop of Philadelphia said the new pope is a man of "extraordinary intellectual and cultural strengths."
Archbishop Charles Chaput calls Francis a "wonderful choice" who comes from the "new heartland of the global church."
Despite the overwhelming outpouring of joy and goodwill, not everyone thought the news was positive.
Andrew Reding of the World Policy Institute in New York said the choice of Bergoglio was an example of "superficial change."
"Once again, a conclave has made a bold geographical move while choosing a doctrinal conservative," he said. "To paraphrase an old saying, the more things change in the Roman Catholic Church, the more they stay the same."
On Twitter, the pope's mothballed account was revived and read: "HABEMUS PAPAM FRANCISCUM," a reference to the cardinal's new name: Pope Francis.
Associated Press writers from across the globe contributed to this report.

Many people are on record as saying they think the Wonderlic is a waste of time at the combine and has nothing whatsoever to do with predicting the future success of a player. They may be right and I am not arguing for or against the testing, just using it as a common denominator since it is the same test for all players and is not subject to regional or institutional variations as using Grade Point Averages would be.
The NFL started using a new aptitude test last year at the combine in addition to the wonderlic to help determine football intelligence, a term used occasionally to describe players who have low reading comprehension abilities but do well in the league. Our own Morris Claiborne has been thus described as well as Ray Lewis who scored a 13 on the wonderlic and had some serious off field problems until he figured out he needed to change his circle of trust to coincide with having fame and fortune.
"The assessment tool being introduced at the Combine is not intended to displace anything currently in use or substitute for other tests that are given either at the Combine or by the clubs themselves. Rather, this new test measures a wide range of competencies, including learning styles, motivation, decision-making skills, responding to pressure or unexpected stimuli, and core intellect. It was developed after detailed discussions with current and former league executives, including Ernie Accorsi, Thomas Dimitroff, John Elway, and Jerry Reese, and was reviewed by members of the general managers Advisory Committee."
The wonderlic has been part of player evaluation since former Dallas Cowboys' head coach Tom Landry introduced it to football in the 1970s, Landry was looking for a tool to calculate intelligence and draw a parallel between that and on field production.
I will list a few wonderlic scores here for comparison (Maximum score is 50).
Per the Wonderlic Corporation, a score of 10 is considered literate and 20 is average intelligence, the average for a recent college graduate is 24.
Most scores are as reported by ESPN.go.com / QB scores are from foxsports.com
Jason Garrett = 36
Tony Romo = 37
Kyle Orton = 28
Another former QB who is now coaching;
Jim Harbaugh = 26
The Current "Elite QBs:
Aaron Rodgers = 35
Tom Brady = 33
Peyton Manning = 28
Drew Brees = 28
Some Hall of Fame (or will be) Quarterbacks:
Steve Young = 33
Troy Aikman = 29
John Elway = 29
Brett Favre = 22
Dan Marino = 15
Terry Bradshaw = 15
Current QBs close to Romo's score:
Alex Smith = 40
Eli Manning = 39
Mathew Stafford = 38
Colin Kaepernick = 38
Andrew Luck = 37
Russell Wilson = 28 (Listed because he is the reigning SB winning QB)
Now as far as receivers go:
Calvin Johnson = 41
Michael Irvin = 28
Joey Galloway = 27
Miles Austin = 24
Dez Bryant = 16
Randy Moss = 12
Average scores by position in NFL, per Wikipedia:
Offensive Tackle = 26
Center = 25
Quarterback = 24
Guard = 23
Tight End = 22
Safety = 19
Linebacker = 19
Cornerback = 18
Wide Receiver = 17
Fullback = 17
Running back = 16
Wikipedia does not list 2 positions but I found some consensus for scores below:
Interested in where your profession falls?
Wonderlic Professions
On a showcase last year of Jimmy Johnson by FOX, he was on his boat telling Bill Belichick the story of when he was approached about acquiring Charles Haley. Jimmy was concerned, as Haley was "known" to be a troublemaker in the locker room. After someone in the 49ers organization told him that Haley was really smart, Jimmy said OK! He said if a player is smart I can reason with him, if I can reason with him I can get everything he has got and win with him. Jimmy went on to say that he had given Jason Garret the same advice about acquiring smart players.
So maybe the "Smart Football Player" advice from Jimmy Johnson is affecting our draft choices more than anyone outside the organization thinks. If we are looking for players more in tune with Jason Garrett maybe we draft the ones who have the best combination of talent, character, work ethic, AND intelligence available to us.
Also is interesting to compare the scores of the guys famous for OFF the field shenanigans ~Cough, Cough, PACMAN, VINCE! ahem BIGBEN!~ (Roethlisberger = 25 / VY = 6 then re-take = 16 / Adam Jones = 13).
So if being a RKG applies to both on and OFF the field behavior then maybe this factors in as well. After all smart people occasionally do stupid things, BUT it is better to side with the odds.
Back to the subject of JG draft picks, let us start with the first 4 picks in 2013 and work back:
Travis Frederick = 34
Gavin Escobar = 28
Terrance Williams = Cannot Find
JJ Wilcox = 15
In 2012 we drafted a famous Low score:
Morris Claiborne = 4
Claiborne admitted that he blew the test off after deciding it had nothing to do with football, answering only 10-12 of the 50 questions, and he only got 4 of those right.
Quote from our man MO:
I came to the combine for football. I looked at the test, and wasn't any questions about football. I didn't see no point in the test. I'm not in school anymore. I didn't complete it
This score and quote could mean nothing at all for our guy, or it could be perceived as a lack of dedication to anything he decides is not important to him, perhaps going to class or taking exams at LSU were not important to him. It can also reflect the hypocrisy of the student/athlete system at some of our Division I
football factories Universities.
The story linked here discusses how the hallowed halls of higher education could be to blame
Corner back is largely a read and react position but knowing where your teammates will be in each coverage and deciphering opponent's tendencies on film are important. Since MO represents our #1 and #2 picks for 2012, I hope the light turns on mentally and physically for him this year!
Our next 2 picks in 2012 are off the google radar:
Tyrone Crawford = cannot find
Kyle Wilber = cannot find
2011 Draft:
Tyron Smith = 34
Bruce Carter = 20
Demarco Murray = cannot find
2010 Draft:
Dez Bryant = 16
Sean Lee = 27
AOA = not invited to Combine
AND Some 2014 Draft prospects we may be interested in:
Ra'Shede Hageman, a defensive tackle out of Minnesota, scored a 13.
Jimmy Garoppolo, quarterback out Eastern Illinois, scored a 24.
Fighting Irish offensive lineman Zack Martin scored a 21.
In the past two years there were six quarterbacks in their 1st or 2nd NFL year who led their teams to the playoffs. They have averaged a 31.6 on the Wonderlic with a high score of 38 (Kaepernick) and a low of 24 (RGIII).
The average score of Super Bowl winning quarterbacks presently playing in the NFL is 30.7
Link to detailed discussion of QBs - QBs and the Wonderlic Here
Now, how is all this related to Jason Garret and the RKG?
More importantly to the team AND us, the fanatical base, is how does this us help WIN?
I believe that the communication between Romo and his WRs and between Garret and his assistant coaches/players will improve as both the players and coaches become "HIS" guys. There are a lot of conversations about coaches - leaders in all walks of life for that matter - needing to be able to communicate with superiors, peers, and subordinates effectively to have real success. This is very difficult when they "see" things at a far different rate.
And if smarter guys get in less trouble off the field and realize the need for working harder in practice, the weight room, and in the film room, then should this subject not be a bigger factor than it is often given credit for?
Also if you have a smart coach, and a smart QB, it makes sense that the team will have an easier time "getting on the same page" if all positions are smarter?
A couple of leadership links to flesh out this point are written by the Clemmergroup. They are a leadership development organization that provides books and seminars on group dynamics and well, the development of leaders.
One I feel fits our recent team dynamic is linked here - When fast and Smart leaders can leave their teams behind
I think this is a lot of the problem between Romo and the receivers on the field, especially in WR option routes or scrambles. I also think this disparity in speed of good decision making leads to the often cited poor game management by Garret.
Remember the "Freezing his own kicker" game? Joe DeCamillis yelled for the Timeout and Garret listens to the coordinator whose team is on the field at that time. As a leader Jason took the heat for the call even though he did not see anything wrong. Could this have been him giving subordinates too much credit for being as on the ball as he is, or Jason believing they saw something he missed?
These types of instant decisions and judgment calls will get better with Garret having people around him he can better communicate with and trust in their judgement without hesitation. This will come by surrounding himself with people who think like he does, either by learning and truly understanding how he thinks or those that naturally have the same - ready for it? - process.

Isle of Thunder Rares
There are eleven new rares on the Isle of Thunder but only ten are needed for Champions of Lei Shen. They can all drop a Shan'ze Ritual Stone and a the Key to the Palace of Lei Shen (which are lootable once a week) as well as the Sealed Tome of the Lost Legion for warlocks – lootable by the first warlock to pick it up. However, each rare is guaranteed to drop a Tome of Valor making it that much easier to be capped for the week.
Nalak will be available once all the stages are complete.

If a workshop is cancelled due to an unexpected campus closure (i.e., weather conditions, etc.) all attempts will be made to reschedule the class. Only if the class cannot be rescheduled will a full refund then be issued. Please listen to the radio or check the college website in order to determine if the school has closed. Every effort will be made to inform you of a class cancellation due to inclement weather.
If you are unable to attend due to the weather in your area—but the class has not been cancelled—you are still responsible to contact the department 24 hours in advance of the class start date.
For questions about registration, please contact us.
For questions about the courses, contact Sandy Munns at 775-224-3473.
