With a cost of living 18 percent below the national average, the small city of Harlingen, Texas, in the Rio Grande Valley had been dubbed the "cheapest place to live in the U.S.," according to data from the Council of Community & Economic Research, which compared prices across 340 urban areas. But before you pack your bags for this "penny pinching paradise," be sure to note Harlingen's high rates of poverty and unemployment. Here, a brief guide, by the numbers:
Average monthly principal and interest payment for a home in Harlingen. "We have relatively low income in the (Rio Grande) Valley, including in Harlingen," says the city's mayor, Chris Boswell. "We have fewer college educated folks." The area also has few high-end retailers.
Average monthly principal and interest payments for a home in Manhattan, the most expensive urban area in the county. Other particularly pricey areas include New York's Brooklyn and Queens, San Francisco, and Honolulu.
Average cost of a loaf of bread in Harlingen

Unemployment rate, in percent, in Harlingen. "There's no work," says unemployed resident Benito Flores.
Poverty rate, in percent, in Harlingen, one of the highest in the nation. The national poverty rate hovers between 13 and 17 percent.
Average annual income in the Brownsville-Harlingen metro area in 2010, per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
Average annual income throughout the United States. "While Harlingen's cost of living may be 18 percent lower than the U.S. average, area income is about 28 percent lower," says Vanessa Wong at Bloomberg Businessweek.

Head Coach Susan Robinson Fruchtl
July 15, 2013
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Providence College women's basketball Head Coach Susan Robinson Fruchtl released the program's 2013-14 non-conference schedule on Monday, July 15. The Friars' non-conference schedule consists of six road games and five home games at Alumni Hall/Mullaney Gymnasium in Providence, R.I. The 2013-14 season marks the 40th season of women's basketball at the College.
The Friars open the 2013-14 regular-season schedule on the road against UMass Lowell on Friday, Nov. 8 in Lowell, Mass. The River Hawks are entering their first season of NCAA Division I competition and are members of the America East Conference. UMass Lowell was previously a member of NCAA Division II and competed in the Northeast-10 Conference.
Providence will host nearby Bryant University in its home opener on Tuesday, Nov. 12 at Alumni Hall. The Bulldogs are coached by former Friar great Mary Burke, who played for the Friars from 1983-87, and still ranks among the top-10 all-time at Providence in scoring (5th, 1,672 points) and rebounding (9th, 740 rebounds).
The Friars hit the road for back-to-back road games against Drexel in Philadelphia, Pa. on Friday, Nov. 15 and Ivy League foe Dartmouth in Hanover, N.H. on Monday, Nov. 18. A season ago, Drexel captured the 2013 Women's National Invitation Tournament title and finished the year with a 28-10 overall record.
Providence returns to Alumni Hall to host the University of Hartford on Wednesday, Nov. 20. The Hawks finished the 2012-13 season with a 21-12 mark and advanced to post-season play for the ninth-straight season as part of the WNIT field.
On Saturday, Nov. 23 the Friars will travel to Tempe, Ariz. to take on Arizona State. A season ago, the Sun Devils finished with a 13-18 record and snapped a streak of 13-consecutive post-season appearances.
The Friars return home to host Albany prior to Thanksgiving break on Wednesday, Nov. 27 in Providence, R.I. The Great Danes captured the 2013 America East title and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for just the second time in program history. As the No. 14 seed, Albany nearly upset No. 3 seed North Carolina in the NCAA First Round (59-54) in Newark, Del.
Providence opens the month of December on the road against Duquesne on Thursday, Dec. 5 in Pittsburgh, Pa. The Dukes completed the 2012-13 season with a 24-8 record and advanced to the second round of the WNIT.
On Wednesday, Dec. 18, the Friars will host Dayton at Alumni Hall. The Flyers, who are coached by former Providence College Head Coach Jim Jabir (1996-02), are coming off of a 28-3 season. Dayton won its first-ever Atlantic 10 regular-season title and made its fourth-straight appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The Flyers advanced to the second round with a 96-90, double-overtime, victory over BIG EAST member St. John's.
The Friars will take on intrastate rival Rhode Island on Saturday, Dec. 21 at the Ryan Center in Kingston, R.I. The game will mark the 45th meeting all-time between the two teams. The Friars lead the all-time series, 34-10, including a 78-52 victory in the most recent meeting on Dec. 12, 2012 in Providence, R.I.
Providence closes out its non-conference schedule with ACC-foe Boston College on Sunday, Dec. 29 at Alumni Hall in Providence, R.I. The match-up revives a long-standing rivalry with the Eagles, who previously played in the BIG EAST Conference. The two teams last played on Jan. 24, 2005 and featured a 92-47 victory for Boston College. The Friars hold a 30-19 advantage in the all-time series. Last season, the Eagles finished the year with a 12-19 overall mark, including a 5-13 record in the ACC.
All dates listed in the Providence College women's basketball schedule are subject to change. The BIG EAST Conference schedule will be released at a later date.

JeffCo comeback gets some love from Forbes

For Jefferson County, it was a long, difficult two years in bankruptcy. For Detroit, the process is just beginning and no is sure yet how long it may take.
Jefferson County, which officially exited bankruptcy Dec. 3 with the sale of nearly $1.8 billion in sewer debt to finance its bankruptcy plan, was the largest municipal filing in U.S. history when it declared a $4.2 billion bankruptcy in November 2011. It has since been eclipsed by Detroit.
The county's battle to come back from the brink, and Birmingham's role in it as the largest city in the county, is the subject of a recent Forbes.com story.
"It is a complicated comeback story," the Forbes report says. "Although they are related, Jefferson County cannot be conflated with the city of Birmingham. The city's budget was always in order, even as its economy was down."
The Forbes piece talked to area leaders such as REV Birmingham's David Fleming, UAB President Ray Watts, Birmingham Mayor William Bell and others.
Now, as the county and city leaders can move forward after bankruptcy, they offer a glimpse of hope to the leaders of Detroit.
"I hope that the process will bring them to a brighter future because that's really what we're trying to do," Fleming said. "Within this calendar year, it has been a really you-can-almost-reach-out-and-touch-it change in the attitude. That couldn't generate out of nothing. The foundations had to be there to get us where we all could feel that way."

Tesoro Logistics offers up $250 million in notes to pay down credit facility
Send this to a friend
- Sanford Nowlin
- Reporter- San Antonio Business Journal
- Email | Google+ | Twitter | Facebook
San Antonio's Tesoro Logistics LP will offer $250 million in senior notes to pay off a revolving credit facility used to fund its recent purchase of Los Angeles-area storage facilities from its refining affiliate.
Tesoro Logistics, which operates petroleum storage and transportation assets, is offering the 5.875 percent notes in a private placement. They come due in 2020.
Tesoro Logistics (NYSE: TLLP) on Monday, Dec. 9, closed a $650 million purchase of Los Angeles-area pipelines and storage terminals owned by refiner Tesoro Corp. (NYSE: TSO), also headquartered in the Alamo City.
Tesoro Corp. gained those assets when it bought British oil giant BP's Carson, Calif., refinery and related facilities.
The refiner took in net proceeds of $1.1 billion from the subsequent asset sale — which was about enough to cover almost half the refinery's $2.4 billion purchase price, officials say.
Sanford Nowlin covers energy/utilities, transportation/aviation and manufacturing.

Study: Emissions Targets Won't Halt Planet's Warming
The U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change pledged to cap global temperature rises at 2 degrees Celsius at the 2010 summit in Cancun, but new figures show greenhouse gas emissions hit a record high last year. According to the United Nations, the world is now on pace for a global temperature rise of between 3 and 5 degrees. Unveiling the latest findings, the chief scientist of the U.N. Environment Programme, Joe Alcamo, warned that current emissions standards will be insufficient to stop devastating climate change.
Joe Alcamo: "Over 45 scientists from around the world came to the conclusion that by 2020, if we just complied with current pledges that the countries have made to reduce emissions, global emissions would not be low enough to be on track to the 2-degree climate target. So, in other words, we cannot wait until 2020 to have stringent emission reductions. We know what the challenge is. It's a question now of taking action. Between now and 2020, through the negotiations, we can tighten up the rules for complying with pledges. That would lead to a reduction in emissions."
Tune into Democracy Now! starting next Monday as we continue our annual coverage of the U.N. Climate Change Conference.

Italy bank foundations to pay 750 mln euros for CDP share conversion
MILAN Dec 3 (Reuters) - Italian banking foundations will pay the Treasury 750 million euros ($980 million) to convert preferred shares they hold in state-owned financing company Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP) into ordinary shares, the CDP head said on Monday.
The conversion to ordinary shares will see the foundations' stake in CDP fall to 16.7 percent, from the 30 percent they currently hold, said CDP chairman Franco Bassanini on the sidelines of a conference.
Foundations will subsequently buy CDP shares from the Treasury to lift their stake back up to 20 percent.
The 750 million euros the foundations will pay the Treasury will go towards paying down public debt stock.
The foundations, which control the country's biggest banks like Intesa Sanpaolo and UniCredit, have to convert the preferred shares into ordinary stock by year-end to respect the CDP's bylaws.
Some commentators estimated the foundations might have to to pay as much as five billion euros to carry out the conversion.
An exit of all the foundations from CDP would make the state the company's sole shareholder, meaning debt would be booked as state debt.
"It is important to keep this shareholder structure," Bassanini said. "It is a safer way to make sure CDP debt is not consolidated with public debt."
The foundations leaving the CDP might also mean the CDP would be barred from investing in private companies according to European Union rules on state aid.
The CDP is an investor in some of Italy's most strategic companies like oil and gas group Eni, gas transport operator Snam and power grid player Terna.

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved.

Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

ESPNcricinfo presents the Plays of the Day from the CLT20 match between Mumbai Indians and New South Wales
Nitin Sundar at the MA Chidambaram Stadium
October 2, 2011

Series/Tournaments: Nokia Champions League T20
Teams: Australia | India | Mumbai Indians | New South Wales
The no-show
Kieron Pollard first burst into prominence when he butchered New South Wales in a match-winning 54 off 18 balls in the league stages of the 2009 Champions League T20. Expectations were high in the lead-up to the latest installment of the fixture - today's game. "Will we see a repeat of Pollard v Henriques today?", the CLT20 tournament CEO Sundar Raman tweeted, referring to the NSW seamer's figures of 3.3-0-49-1 in that memorable game. There was no repeat though, as Pollard combusted to an atrocious stroke early in the piece. With the top order already back in the dressing room, against Patrick Cummins who was thundering in at speeds exceeding 145kph in the fifth over, Pollard chose to crouch back in the crease and swipe across the line. The ball took out middle stump, while also disturbing leg and off. Curtains.
The sacrifice
Harbhajan Singh's aim when he faced the penultimate ball of Mumbai Indians' innings was to turn the strike over to James Franklin, at the very least. He tried to pull a short ball from Cummins, but was too early into the shot, and bottom-edged it to the off side. The ball had gone nowhere, but Harbhajan ran across in search of a fortuitous single, even as Cummins charged down the track to collect. Harbhajan didn't even make the pretence of running at full tilt, and just ambled across hoping that Cummins would miss. He was out by a bunch of yards as Cummins' throw crashed into middle stump at the bowler's end. Cummins celebrated, Harbhajan nodded at Franklin and walked away, his job done.
The late realisation
It was one of those rare occasions when neither the bowler nor the batsman knew that the latter was out bowled. Abu Nechim got his first ball to skid on from a length and smack a flat-footed Shane Watson palpably on the pads. Nechim was convinced he had his man, and writhed in anticipation as he went up in a theatrical appeal for lbw. Watson looked up slowly too, with the body-language of a man who knew he was in trouble. Umpire Shavir Tarapore, however, did not give it out lbw, since the ball had spun back off Watson's pad and rolled through to hit the stumps.
The pressure reliever
There was little to choose between the teams in the first 32 overs of play. Both had lost their best batsmen to reckless strokes against disciplined bowling, and New South Wales' chances of a win depended on the lower order's ability to handle pressure. For those 32 overs, not a single six was hit - a rarity in Twenty20 games in the subcontinent. Smith chose that moment to break the shackles, pouncing out of the crease to launch a flighted ball from Yuzvendra Chahal for the only six of the game. The stroke oozed intent, and proved to be the turning point in the match: Mumbai Indians' shoulders drooped a touch, and Smith took NSW home without strife.

Fort Worth is launching a review of its master thoroughfare plan aimed at accommodating continued suburban growth and central city redevelopment with a greater variety of streets and more efficient traffic flow.
Longtime Fort Worth businessman, philanthropist and preservationist Holt Hickman died Nov. 15, 2014, at the age of 82.
A key linchpin in the Fort Worth economy, American Airlines Group Inc., is considering sites for a new headquarters, possibly outside the city, the airline's CEO said this morning.
Residents of West Fort Worth's Crestwood Association are trying to block the rezoning of a small apartment complex at White Settlement Road and North Bailey Avenue to make way for a planned office building, saying it would represent the start of commercial encroachment into their neighborhood.
Rarely does Golf Digest make the news. Leave it to Dan Jenkins to change that.
The Associated Press
The price of oil inched up Monday but gains were tempered by the prospect of a further reduction in U.S. central bank stimulus.
Benchmark U.S. crude for March delivery was up 8 cents at $96.72 a barrel at 0520 GMT in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell 68 cents to settle at $96.64 a barrel on Friday.
The Federal Reserve meets for two days from Tuesday. Officials are widely expected to reduce the central bank's monthly bond buying that has underpinned an economic recovery.
So far, the reduction has been minimal. The Fed has cut the amount of bonds it buys each month by $10 billion to $75 billion but many economists think the stimulus could end this year if the U.S. economic recovery gains steam.
The International Monetary Fund's managing director Christine Lagarde warned over the weekend of the risks posed to global economic recovery from phasing out the U.S. stimulus too rapidly and deflation in Europe.
Also, less monetary easing in the U.S. could boost the dollar, making oil less affordable for holders of other currencies.
Slowing growth in China was another factor weighing on oil prices. Preliminary results of a survey released last week showed China's manufacturing would contract in January.
Brent crude, used to set prices for international varieties of crude, was down 36 cents at $107.52 on the ICE exchange in London.
In other energy futures trading on Nymex:
— Wholesale gasoline was down 0.4 cent at $2.666 a gallon.
— Natural gas rose 2.4 cents to $5.421 per 1,000 cubic feet
— Heating oil was up 0.2 cent at $3.018 a gallon.

Latest Headlines
Samsung Electronics expects its mobile business to bounce back in the months ahead, a top company executive said, especially with the launch of its latest flagship phablet device, the Galaxy Note 4. Meanwhile, even as the conglomerate shifts software engineers from its mobile unit to other parts of the company, the world's largest smartphone maker is gearing up for its second annual developer conference this fall.
Samsung is readying a new smart watch that it claims will redefine the meaning of the term 'wearable device' by offering wireless connectivity without being tethered to a smartphone.
Huawei does not plan on building a smartphone running on the open-source Tizen platform, according to a senior company executive, dealing yet another blow to the fledgling smartphone platform. Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei's consumer business group, also said Huawei is putting on pause plans to introduce new phones running Microsoft's Windows Phone platform.
The wait for the first commercial Tizen-based smartphone will go on. Samsung Electronics said it would delay sales in Russia of the Samsung Z, the first Tizen smartphone, presumably because there are not yet enough apps on the platform.
Samsung Electronics' efforts to get the first smartphone running the open-source Tizen platform into the market suffered another setback when the company had to backtrack on its promise to show off a commercial version of its first Tizen phone at a developer conference in Moscow on Thursday.
The Samsung Z smartphone launch was supposed to be a sign that the Tizen operating system was finally ready for prime time, but mobile app developers may need more proof it can offer the advantages they've gained with Android.
Samsung Electronics will release the first commercial Tizen-based smartphone in Russia in the third quarter, but details on how Samsung will expand the launch beyond Russia as well as the future of the platform's reach remain unclear.
Samsung detailed plans to launch its first Tizen powered smartphone in the third quarter of 2014, however, analysts remain sceptical the device will be a success for the company.
Samsung Electronics is aiming to release its first smartphone running the Tizen operating system in Russia and India, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Samsung Electronics plans to release at least two Tizen-based smartphones in the months ahead, even though it is banking heavily on strong sales from its flagship Android Galaxy S5 smartphone, according to a Samsung executive.

|ESPN: SportsNation
What will happen to Jeff Otah after this season? With Byron Bell playing reasonably well, how many more opportunities will they give him?
Next season is last year of Otah's contract. There's no big salary-cap advantage to cutting him. So my guess is they'll let him rehab and see where he's at in training camp. Bell's doing all right, but they could still look to upgrade at that spot. If Otah comes back and can play, great. But they can't really count on him.
Hey Pat, with Bucs susceptible to the blitz, how is LeGarrette Blount at pass protection?
Well, I think we might find out Sunday. With Graham out, Blount says he'll be on field in passing situations. Think you may see some of that. But they haven't trusted him before, so I don't think you'll see him pass blocking all the time. Lumpkin may do some of that and you could also see them do some other things like use an extra tight end or even some formations where they have six linemen -- with one technically an eligible receiver.
Do the Saints get back to running more this week and using Sproles and Pierre more frequently?
I think they need to. As great as Brees is, he needs at least some sort of running game to help him out.
whats wrong with the Bucs secondary ? every time I see a ball thrown on them the WR is wide open. I say we draft a CB in the 1st round
I think that's a decent possibility.
Will the NFC South be the best overall division for the next five seasons because of the quarterbacks?
Well, a couple of those QBs (Ryan and Freeman) need to be a little more consistent before we can go saying that.
How's Tampa Bay's pass rush this season? Will the team still need to look for players to help in that area or can the Bucs use its' draft picks elsewhere?
Think they've made some progress in that area and have a lot invested in their front four. At this point, I'd expect them to draft elsewhere.
After a 2-6 start, it looks like next year could be the bounce back year for the Panthers, if their defensive leaders stay healthy. With the possibility of a high first round pick in next years draft, do they go after a DT or CB, or will they target a compliment to Steve Smith?
Lot depends on where they're sitting in the draft. But, right now, I'd say DT is biggest area of need.
Do you think the bye week will solve some of the bucs issues? I'm hoping Freeman an williams will get back on track
Not sure if bye will solve Williams' issues. But I think the bye helps big time in that they're getting some key players back and healthy.
Pat Do you think 10-6 is a good record for the Falcons?
Might be good enough to get them into the playoffs. But I think they'd be much happier with 11-5.
What's Up Pat? I have missed a few weeks of the chat, but I'm back!! What's the deal with Sam Baker? Svitek played solid vs. Detroit, any chance the move Baker to RG since Reynolds isn't working out and leave Svitek at LT for the remainder of the season?
Baker's going to be out next 3-4 weeks. If Svitek continues to play well and they keep winning, I think there's a good chance he'll remain in the starting lineup.
Panthers fans, miss me yet?
I'm sure some of them do.
t or f? Mike Williams and Josh Freeman get back on track after the bye
Freeman maybe. Not so sure about Williams.
Pat, you correctly predicted a few weeks ago that the Falcons might benefit from Julio Jones sitting out for a week or two. Now you are saying that they will benefit from his return. What has changed that makes you think that Jones might steer the falcons away from what they do best(giving the ball to Turner)? Thanks
I just think they needed to step back and re-evaluate their offense a little bit. Get back to having a strong running game. Now, with Julio back, they can build off of that running game to throw downfield. They were trying to force that early on. Let it come naturally with help from the running game.
Can we get auto updat on please
I don't have that capability. Any readers want to tell John what he needs to do, please?
Since it is the big thing this week, just for kicks, do you have an opinion on LSU/Alabama tomorrow?
Not really. Should be a good game. Kind of bummed that I'll probably miss most of it as I travel. Hoping to catch some of it during my layover.
Will Tebow ever be a starting QB in the NFL?
Well, he is a starting QB -- right now. Will he be a successful one in the long term? I don't think so. That's just my opinion. I've thought all along that he doesn't throw nearly well enough to be an NFL QB. I think he'd be better of moving to TE or RB.
i feel like the bucs are going about the youth movement way too literally. Unless every single draft pick becomes solid player you can't rely 100% on the draft you need to get at least a few players through free agency to fill some spots.. Just look how good koenens doing and he is their sole fa acquisition . Your thoughts?
No argument here. I don't think they needed to do anything crazy in free agency. But a few mid-level free agents would have been nice.
Pat: The Saints have lost 8 straight coin tosses at the beginning of the games. Do they keep records of that? And do you have any recommendations on a remedy for that?
Not sure. I'll have to check with our stats people. Maybe get some of that voo doo to change their luck.
Click on refresh at the top of the screen for auto on.
Here you go, John. Thanks, Dan.
Mike Smith recently said they needed to get Quizz Rodgers more touches, Coach talk or do you see him finishing the year with an expanded role with Mughelli on IR
Probably a gradual increase. Snelling could be spending more time at fullback, so that could create more opportunities. But I think they view Rodgers mostly as a situational player right now and don't want him out there for pass protection.
Hey Pat, a few weeks ago (before week 7), you wrote that the Saints had the easiest schedule for the remainder of the season, but failed to mention that following their match-up with the colts, they handed that title to the Falcons.. Do you still think they have a stronghold on the division given that they're now 5-3 and the Falcons have the easiest remaining schedule?
I don't think anybody's got a hold on the division right now. Saints opened the door last week. Next two weeks will tell a lot with Saints playing Bucs and then Falcons.
I can see the panthers finishing at least 6-10 you agree or disagree?
Not out of the question. They've been competitive and they're improving. They need a little more help out of their defense, though.
When players are on IR are they restricted from team activities or do they still participate in meetings, on the bench, etc.?
They can be around, but they can't be on the practice field.
With a 4-3 record, the Bucs played 5 of their first 7 games against teams ranked in the ESPN power ranking top 12, and beat both the Falcons and Saints. Do you think a #19 power ranking is a bit low for the Bucs?
Maybe, but Bucs have been pretty inconsistent. Look great against the Saints one week and not very good against the Bears the next. I don't vote in Power Rankings, but think it's safe to say Bucs could jump up a good bit if they win Sunday.
The bucs, at 3-1, get blown out by the 49ers after beating the Falcons, no one seems to care all that much.. The Falcons could lose to the Colts sunday and people would just think they were all hype.. The Saints lose to the WINLESS RAMS in the ugliest game I've ever seen them play and they still get picked as unanimous favorites over the Bucs and are probably favorites to win the division still.. How much ground do the saints have to give up before anyone gives nearly as much credit to the teams actually 'on the rise' in the division?
When those teams "rise" with some degree of consistency would be my guess.
How is the knee of Blount? is it 100% or less, can he run wild this week like I know he can on then Saints.
Believe the knee of Blount is fine. He's had plenty of time to rest it.
Rankings are for losers.
There is that.
How much do you think the bye is going to help carolina this week? Players getting better, game planning etc..
It's got to help a young team that didn't have an offseason with new coaching staff. Unfortunately, it can't bring back Jon Beason, Thomas Davis and Ron Edwards.
What improvements, specifically players, do you think the Panthers need to make on defense in order to get over the hump, as they say.
They need to be able to stop the run. DT is biggest problem area. LB became an issue with all the injuries.
Do you see the Bucs finding a replacement for Talib next year or staying the course?
Think they'll wait to see what happens with his legal situation.
Pat, do you agree with giving Dalton ROM over Cam? It seems the voters believe in "QB wins." Have Dalton & Cam switch defenses and the records would probably be reversed, if not worse for Dalton.
There aren't voters involved in that one. That's done by the NFL office and I think they go out of their way to try to spread things around.
Pat, can you guess which NFC South corner is second to Revis when it comes to QB rating when thrown against them?
My guess would be Jabari Greer. But, since the question is coming from Charlotte, I'm thinking it might be Gamble or Munnerlyn. Let's hear it?
Pat, agree or disagree, Atlanta's passing game is awful right now because the o-line was built to be a run first, and is barely mediocre in pass blocking.
Best WR in NFCS right now?
Steve Smith, by far.
How is Rudy Carpenters' arm strenght? Tebow was thied string and jumped to first, if Josh gets injured, is Johnson watching his back?
Rudy's on practice squad right now. Doubt you'll see him on the field anytime soon unless they have several injuries.
I cant see the panthers picking a DT if they have a high pick in the draft, Because right now i dont see a DT worthy of that high of a pick. Although i can see them taking a WR agree or disagree
Would not rule out WR. LaFell is coming on, but still not sure how good he'll be. They need someone to complement Smith and eventually replace him. Franchise is being built around QB, so they'll want to give QB all the weapons they can. Then again, solidifying the defense might help the QB more than anything.
Pat! Are you going to be in Atlanta next week?
Atlanta next week. Have Bucs-Saints this week.
Theres a lot of talk of Chud becoming a HC next year. Do you think he may want to stay to be part of Cams superbowl run?
If he does get an HC opportunity, those are pretty hard to turn down. Think he still might be one more year away from a real strong HC opportunity.
Panthers fans and Charlotteans have missed Kasay since he was cut. Terrific player and great person. It wasn't our decision to cut him, it was a business decision by the team's front office to spare a position.
Actually, more of a football decision than a business decision. Mare's getting paid quite a bit of money.
Do you agree that the Saints biggest problems are pass blocking and stopping the run? The Bucs have a solid pass rush and a bruising RB. I'm worried about another division loss. Honestly, I like the Bucs chances this week in New Orleans, as they beat us in the dome the last couple years in a row.
Bucs have shown they match up well with Saints. But I think Saints might come out a little angry and extra motivated after what happened last week.
Falcons make it to the playoffs and lose, who gets the axe, Mularkey, BVG, or both?
Right now, I'd lean more to the offensive side.
Matt Bryant has made 27 consecutive FG's , I think he needs a write up on your Blog
I'll add that to the "to do" list.
Not a fan of Sam Baker.. he looked like a blow-up doll against Babin and the Eagles and I haven't forgiven him since... How do you think the Falcons will fare with him out for 3+ weeks?
They did pretty well without him against Detroit. If Svitek plays reasonably well and they keep winning while Baker's out, he's probably gone next year.
Cam is a turnover machine yet you only single out Ryan and Freeman for shoddy play. I get that Cam is a rookie but he is SO careless with the ball.
True, but Cam's putting up some other big numbers.
Do you think Josh Johnson test free agency after the season, or is he comfortable being Freemans backup?
I would think anyone in his situation would at least test FA to see if there's a possible shot at a starting spot. If there's not, I think Bucs coaches would be very happy to have him back.
Brent "Optimus" Grimes is a FA next year, does he stay in Atlanta or does some other team offer a big payday?
Think there's a good chance Falcons try to make sure he never hits free-agent market.
And Carolina is 2-6 thanks in part to alot of Cam's TOs. Come on Pat!
And their lack of anything close to a defense. I'm not saying Cam's perfect, but he's far better than anyone has expected. He's made them competitive and interesting to watch. So far, I'd give him a slight edge over Jimmy Clausen's electrifying rookie season.
Pat, you think Steve Smith has an outside shot at HoF, especially if he can have 2-3 more years like this. His numbers have suffered due to bad QB play/ system and some injuries, but he has been one of the best WR in the league for 10 years now
He needs several more years with the kind of stats he's putting up. It would also help if Panthers gave him a few playoff runs. I know Steve is in his 30s, but I haven't seen any sign of him slowing down. So I wouldn't rule anything out.
C'mon Pat, you know it isn't fair at all to compare Clausen under John Fox in a lame duck position to Cam Newton with a new coach and Chud's awesome tailored playbook. Just sayin'.
That was intended with a heavy dose of sarcasm.
Thanks for penning an article about Donald Penn. I am glad he plays for my team. I think he could be the Bucs midseason MVP after his performances against Freeney, Abraham, Peppers, etc.
My pleasure. Penn's fun to talk to and he has been playing quite well.
Best defense in the south right now?
Really? I've got to pick one? I'm not crazy about any of the four. But I'd say Atlanta and Tampa each have done some good things at times on defense and each of them has the potential to be a good defense if they can be more consistent.
Pat, any good Sam Mills stories?
Yes, one of my all-time favorite interviews came when I was doing a free-lance story on the USFL for a magazine. I sat down with Sam and Panthers equipment man Jackie Miles (who also worked in USFL) and they told USFL stories for about two hours. Sam was a great and fascinating guy. I still have the tape of that interview. Might have to do a USFL book someday.
Can we finally agree that i'm back to being the best WR in the league?!
One of our other writers called me yesterday to talk about the midseason All-Pro team he's doing for next week. I mentioned your name. He had forgotten about you. But I think you're now going to make his team.
Do you think Davin Joseph is a pro bowl player? He is so powerful-looking on the field, but it's hard to judge guards as a common fan.
It's hard for writers, who don't fancy themselves as scouts or coaches, to judge that too. I seek out opinions of coaches and scouts on things like that. The consensus is Joseph is pretty good, but not great.
I know Raheem praises consistency, yet the players have struggled with this for two years. Is this due to having the youngest team in the NFL, or do you think it is due to coaching?
Think there's some of both at play there. When consistency problems spill into a second year, then I say it's not all on having a young roster.
Sam Mills is a Saint first, Panther second.
True and he was also a Philadelphia Star. More than anything, he was a great person.
have you met cam yet? seems like a pretty nice kid!
Been around him in group interviews several times, but not one-on-one yet. Seems to handle himself well in group interviews and not many rookie QBs master that right away. Couple more questions before we end the chat.
Hi PY..Just joined...We have a lot to look forward to the 2nd half, but my FALCONS look really off, esp. offense, do the OL miss DAHL that much. Is it over for Baker?
You almost missed us! I think it's been a combination of Baker and Reynolds struggling and McClure's injury didn't help. Yeah, I'm pretty sure this will be Baker's last year with Falcons.
To the guy who said Cam is a turnover machine, HE IS A ROOKIE, those other two guys have been in the NFL 2+ years, Cam has an excuse.
And Drew Brees is tied for second in the league in INTs.
Will this be Ronde's last year?
You'd have to ask Ronde. Think it's all up to him. He's still playing well. If he wants to keep playing, I think they'd give him another contract.
How much longer until Rivera lets Lafell start? He has outplayed Nenee every game with a lot less opportunity.
I think it's got to come soon. Seems like they've been gradually increasing LaFell's playing time. I say throw him out there all the time.
Bye pat! you put in some over time this week! Preciate it! Sincerly, your fans
Yes, we are past the time limit, so I'll cut it off. Thanks to all for stopping by. We'll do it again next week.
