ESPN: SportsNation |
Good afternoon! Let's talk some football!
should I play M. Tolbert or F. Jackson... week 3ty
Jackson, but the real reason I took this question is to note that there will be a TFS fantasy football chat every Friday at 3 PM starting tomorrow. Want to keep this chat centered around topics other than fantasy.
Adam Schefter wrote that the coach who gets to draft Andrew Luck could get to keep his job for 10 years. Really? Obviously there's more that goes into a coach keeping his job but how much of what Schefter (and countless others) say about luck is just pure overstatement? There's so much over-the-top talk about Luck that I get a little hesitant to buy in. What is it about Luck, really? Is he *really* a franchise savior in your eyes? And haven't we heard similar talk about other draft choices? You seem pretty level-headed. What's your take?
The thing about Luck is that he is just like Sam Bradford in that he looks pro ready right now. That kind of hype is huge but everything about Luck's game says he'll be a very good pro.
http://bloggingthebeast.com/2011/09/21/seriously-kc-joyner/In that above link, a NFC east writer made the point that Nnamdi Asomugha has only given up about 14 yards per game over the past four seasons in a rubuttal to you calling him the most overrated player in the game. How can a corner who gives up basically nothing be considered overrated at all, much less the most overrated player in the game?
All that stat shows is what we already know, which is that Asomugha was not thrown at that often in Oakland. In the TFS Asomugha article, it is pointed out that he has a 7.0 YPA in 300 pass attempts over the past seven years. That shows he is not Revis-like in coverage (Revis has a career YPA of 5.3).
Can you commen ton AJ Green. Is he a future stud?
Based on last week, absolutely. His issue was never a lack of talent; it was whether or not his skills would come to the fore in a Bengals offense being piloted by a rookie QB.
So if this chat isn't to include fantasy questions I shouldn't ask about the Vikings prospects for playing in the Super Bowl, correct?
Yeah, that's probably a fantasy world as well.
Two picks for you: Texans/Saints and Carolin/Jags what say you Mr. Scientist?
Hey, Zach, good to hear from you! Would take the Texans over the Saints and the Panthers over the Jaguars.
How does Pitt's make shift o-line match-up with Indy? More power running or short timing routes ala 2006? Any chance for Indy springs an upset? Say 5%? #SuckForLuck
It is amazing that is a hashtag on Twitter. It's reminiscent of the O.J. Simpson bowl back in the day when Buffalo faced off against some other team (NE?) and the loser would get a chance at drafting Simpson. Buffalo lost and many of their fans were actually happy. Pittsburgh's run blocking has actually been pretty good this year, so look for them to pound the ball on the ground against the Colts.
Forget Timberlake, I brought SEXY back!
My dental hygienist is a big Redskins fan and she was telling me how excited she is about Washington's prospects this year, but when the subject of Rex Grossman came up, her mood changed. She cannot stand him and wants Washington to start Beck. That's the way a lot of Washington fans feel, so Rex better keep winning if he wants to keep that job.
What do you think it will take for R.Moss to back to a team this year AND be productive?
Turning the clock back to 2007 wouldn't hurt.
If the Lions stay healthy what do u think their record will be at the end of the season?
Broncos/Titans this week might be an interesting matchup. Do you think CJ breaks out against a weak run D or do the Broncos get enough players back from dings and dents to put up a good fight?
That rib injury could be a concern for CJ2K. That run offense isn't quite the same as the one the Titans used under Jeff Fisher, either. He'll have a good game soon, probably in this contest, but his long-term prospects this season might be less than they have been in the past.
I'd tell your hygienist to be careful what she wishes for because she might get it, KC.
Will do. Have to say that when I am in that chair, I always have good things to say about the Skins. It's that old rule - Never get on the bad side of someone who has dental instruments in your mouth.
What do say the chances are that A.Luck is NOT the #1 pick next year? IE...somehow Car gets #1 pick again
That would be about the only scenario where Luck would not be picked. Even then, Carolina probably picks Luck and then trades him to another team.
PLEASE dont be mad KC, but I have a fantasy question and will not be around to ask you tomorrow. Am I crazy to start OchoCinco over Boldin since AH is out for the Pats?
Not going to be mad, as there will be the occasional fantasy football question in this chat. Don't start Ocho over Boldin.
Do you agree that they should GIVE ME THE BALL!!!
Not necessarily. Getting Ingram more involved in this offense is probably the better move.
Despite Harbaugh's general lack of focus on a TE in his offense, shouldn't there be some emphasis on getting the ball to arguably your most talented offensive player?
One would think so, but Martz had Greg Olsen and didn't use him and still had a productive offense.
Your cheat sheet has really been screwing me so far. CJ2K, Manningham, Foster, Gates have all killed me. Thought I had a good draft.
Are you kidding me? That's a great draft. Just because injuries have crushed Foster and Manningham's value (he nearly had two TDs in the MNF game and could have had more chances were it not for the injury) doesn't make the draft bad. And Gates will have a fantastic game this week against Jon McGraw. Don't give up after only two weeks is what I'm saying!
If a team ended up with the #1 pick in the draft and decided to trade the pick, what kind of haul would Luck bring? It would have to be more than the massive haul Cleveland got for Julio Jones. For teams like Carolina, Indy, NYG, Rams, it seems like the value of their existing QB plus the value of the picks and talent received in a trade would have to be more than the value of Luck.
Luck will be like Elway in that any team that has him and is willing to trade him will be able to get a huge price in return. He's only worth trading if the team has a young franchise QB already in place. Heck, the Panthers might not be off-base if they traded away Newton and were to keep Luck if they ended up with the first pick again next year.
Thoughts on Julio Jones the rest of the season?
He's getting ample targets, so that's not an issue. The entire Falcons passing game looks a bit out of synch, so it isn't entirely him either. He'll pan out as the season progresses.
Do you think Romo will play on Monday? And will he play well?
The guess is he will play. Whether or not he plays well may be a function of who his targets are.
Time to bail on Shonn Greene? Think he can turn it around, or is he too dependent on the Jets having a lead?
He's only on pace to get around 200 rushes so far, which is a very low number. That pace is bound to pick up, so don't bail on him yet.
Am I being used enough in Indy? Should I step aside and let Delone get a real shot? Or is my team so far gone right now that it really doesn't matter either way?
It probably doesn't even matter, but the Colts will want to see if Delone is the real deal. Addai's PT may be dependent on the answer to that question.
Which 1 NFL player are you worried about the most after 2 weeks?
Chris Johnson. That offense is not the same one that was used last year, or at least it doesn't look to be the same one after the first two weeks.
Do you think LeRon McClain eventually gets carries in KC? I can't think TJ has any explosiveness left, and McCluster can't carry the rock more than 6-8 times being too little.
McCluster will serve as a pseudo-Charles in that he'll be the knockout punch that is used after Thomas Jones & McClain wear the opponent down. McCluster probably won't see 300 carries/targets like Charles did, but the 250-mark is certainly possible.
Btw, regarding Nnamdi I remember Miles Austin beating him for two deep balls in 2009. He is nowhere near Revis as a shutdown. Agree with your take.
Aggie, it might be just you and me on that one. Asomugha is highly talented and is a great ballhawk, but he's not as good as Revis in coverage.
Bare with me, but can you envision: 11 games in, the Bills are 7-4 or 6-5 with nothing to lose, need a #2 WR... TO is healthy and looking for a contender to be on... didn't burn any bridges when he left in '09... should be cheap enough for a 1/3 season rental for even Ralph Wilson... Can it work?
It can, but what if Jones and Nelson are developing well at that point? Does one take away their targets to give them to a one-year and gone player? Bills would probably be better served to think long-term in that case.
Who will be more productive? Thomas Jones or Dexter McCluster?
Jones will see the ball more often, but McCluster will be more productive.
IND will place Peyton on IR, go 1-15, draft Luck, and sit him behind Peyton for a couple years. Every other team in the league can forgeting about #SuckforLuck!
That seems to be a commonly wished scenario. Only thing is it assumes Peyton will be back and ready to go in 2011. After three neck surgeries in 18 months and the reported stem cell infusion (which counts as another surgery), it should not be automatically assumed that he will return to football.
Why is P.Harvin on the field for less than 50% of the Vikings plays!?!?! Makes no sense! Berrian & M.Jenkins are nothing compared to Percy.
The issue is that Harvin is a running back playing wide receiver. They don't want to use him as a pure RB very often (why would they want to when Peterson is in the backfield?), so they have to come up with RB-style plays to use for him at WR. That's a bit limiting playbook-wise.
Are you not answering my questions about the Redskins because you are going back to your dentist for a root canal soon?
Sir, I never avoid questions, even if they mean having to take a root canal to answer them!
Speaking of Manningham, do you still think he has a good season?
Yes, but it is more dependent on Eli than it is on Manningham. Manningham could have had a huge MNF game were it not for Eli's inaccurate passes.
What do you make of Daniel Thomas in Miami? Bush is his usual injury prone self, an if Miami wasn't so convinced of Thomas' talent, wouldn't they have tried to keep Ronnie or Ricky, or at least signed someone else?
Thomas had a 6.1 GBYPA (good blocking YPA) total in the three games against tough Big 12 rush D competition last year. That's a solid number and he might be able to replicate it in Miami. Having said that, if the number drops (and collegiate numbers often do drop when the player moves to the next level), it will be subpar (6.0 is the acceptable number there) and Miami will need to look elsewhere for running production.
What do you think of Spiller lining up at receiver?
Kind of like Harvin - it will work for a few play types but unless he learns to run the full route tree, it will be a rather limited benefit.
Hi KC, What are your thoughts on Russell Wilson's play so far? I know you were not as optimistic as most prior to the season, but he's looked great, even if the competition has been pretty weak. Do you think Wisconsin will win the Big Ten?
Have to say that he looks better in this offense than he did with NC State. Still want to see how he plays against better competition but this may be one where I have to eat some crow.
So will Eli put up the near-elite numbers you say he would at the beginning of the season. He is bringing down my team and looks horrible out there
Well, let's not completely give up after two weeks. Having said that, Eli looks a bit flustered by not having either Boss or Smith to throw check down passes to. If NY can get that issue resolved with Stokely or Cruz and can keep their starting WRs healthy, Eli should turn things around.
Von Miller +/- 10 sacks this season?
Book the over on that one. He's looked great so far.
I'm a huge bucs fan and pumped about their offense showing up in the second half last week. Can they put it together this week against Atlanta or is their soft run D just not going to cut it?
That second half was more like it, wasn't it! Tampa's offense will keep improving as that O line gels and acclimates itself to Pat Morris' blocking system.
How do you like the new QBR statistic?
It may be the most innovative statistic in the world of sports analytics. Put it this way - it is a stat I look at every week and I strongly suggest everyone else do the same.
So your suggestion that its not off base for CAR to trade Newton if they can draft Luck implies Cam still hasn't impressed you yet after 2 games?
People keep pointing out that Cam Newton is on pace to throw for over 6,000 yards, but they seem to forget that he is also on pace to throw for 32 interceptions. He's doing some things very well but he's got a lot of room for improvement.
Bill Williamson said early that the rebuilding process for the Broncos has only just begun. I think that their defense is advanced enough that they really only need to rebuild the offense. Do you think that with some better players at skill positions (QB and RB) this could be a contender in a weak division in a couple of years?
They still need some secondary help, as they have some very old players back there. Denver would do well to concentrate their efforts there first and foremost as well as deciding what they want to do at QB.
Your thoughts on Lesean McCoy?
He's finally turning into the Brian Westbrook-type of player Philadelphia wants him to be. He's been very good in his career up to now but this looks like it could be his signature season.
Hakeem Nicks against the Eagles secondary - who comes out ahead?
Nicks has shown a consistent ability to beat any level of CB coverage. As long as he isn't too slowed by the knee and Eli can throw an accurate pass (neither of which is a given), he'll do fine in that matchup.
And you of all people, isn't YPA your go to stat for QB's???
I take the Bill James approach to stats. James was always open to a new stat because he realized its existence did not eliminate earlier stats, but rather added more information to the discussion. Total QBR has its plusses and minuses but all in all it is the most ambitious stat the world of pro football analysis has seen thus far. That type of progress has to be applauded.
What do you think of PFR's Adjusted Net Yards per Attempt?
I'm a big Pro Football Reference fan, use their site all the time.
S. Jackson teases us all with his first carry of the season...will he return this week?
It's very likely but be concerned if you are considering starting him in FF.
Is your dentist Anderson Silva? you avoid my questions like I avoid getting on a teeter totter with Albert Haynseworth
Hey, understand that I answer as many questions as possible. Avoiding questions is not my modus operandi, especially if those questions are funny and/or controversial.
That was a hint, by the way. The comedic posts just aren't as prevalent as they used to be.
Do you see Roy Helu being the starting tailback by season end?
Nope. He got carries last week because Hightower had 46 carries in the first two games. That's a 368-carry pace for the season and Shanahan almost certainly wanted to keep that number from going higher.
Is this the beginning of the end for Tim Hightower, or are you "Keeping the Faith"?
Completely keeping the faith. He's done a very good job this year.
Plus, let's not automatically assume Helu can handle a 20-25 carries per game workload.
Who is one player you can see bursting onto the scene as the season progresses?
Wrote about that in this week's Pass Plays article - Ryan Mathews. His GBYPA has been fantastic and Norv Turner will soon have no choice but to get him the ball more and more often as the season progresses.
Does someone break Marino's passing yards record, or do does all the passin come to a halting "Screech"?
Read the Player X article from this week. He talks about how defenses are very limited in the blitz calls they can make. That will change as the season moves along and will bring these ridiculously high early season numbers back down to more normal levels.
your thoughts on Jordy Nelson?
He takes over Donald Driver's starting WR role by season's end.
If i'm going to miss Nicks on his always open deep routes would u rather me over throw him or keep under throwing him like i have been doing?
Overthrow. The underthrows get picked off (see the MNF game).
This is the first time I have ever seen, heard, or thought of the phrase, "My dental hygienist is a big Redskins fan." Thank you.
We always try to break new ground in the TFS Thursday chats!
Should I be encouraged with the Niners performance vs Dallas? Or is a loss still a loss.
A loss is still a loss but there were encouraging signs. Don't even think of giving up on Harbaugh. He's going to be a great NFL head coach, but it might take a year or two to get this team turned in the direction he has in mind for it.
TFS, How do you think Helu's production on Sunday could have been due to Shanny punishing Hightower for his scuffle with his old team?
That could be part of it, but 46 carries in two games is the more likely reason. Plus, Shanahan knows a thing or two about not liking former employers (i.e. the Raiders), so he'd somewhat understand that line of thinking.
Cam's numbers are better than Bradfords last year against superior teams. What makes everyone question Cam Newtons ability to great, but call Bradford the next great QB after 2 okay games as well?
It's hard to call the Arizona Cardinals week one defense superior, especially with their weaknesses in the secondary. Newton is doing some things very well but as far as his QB play goes, consider this. His Total QBR and passer rating marks after two games are both only slightly above average. That's where he is right now but people see the yardage totals and make it seem like he should be inducted into Canton right now.
Thanks for the chat KC! Much more entertaining without all the FF comments for the majority.
Time for me to wrap up for the day but another fine chat, KC. I like this whole 'two chats, one Joyner' thing. Fantasy Football really should have its own hour. Have a good evening and see you (and everyone else) at 3:00 PM tomorrow for FFL help.
Hey, thanks to all of you for the great questions! Apologies I could not get to them all. Three quick items. The fantasy FB chat is tomorrow at 3 PM (as J.B. noted). The TFS material is always posted on Twitter @kcjoynertfs. More info about the TFS fantasy FB start-sit service can be found at www.thefootballscientist.com. Hope to see you all in tomorrow's chat!

I'll be forthright: I'm not a homemaker. I feel added at affluence consistently on the move, city-limits afterwards city, mountaintop to bank surf, active out of my attache and averseness through a adopted accent byword book, than I feel even comfortable and cozy, comatose on my couch on a Sunday afternoon. Perhaps I'm a little crazy, but I acquisition it blood-tingling sprinting to accomplish a abutting flight (even if it's the red eye); I accept it acceptable if the airline informs me my baggage is a flight behind, abrogation unencumbered to activate sightseeing immediately; and I anticipate myself able if I admission at a appointed auberge alone to apprehend I forgot to accomplish anxiety but still argue a room. Of course, while I don't apperception any of the perceived headaches of traveling, I do apperception the top costs generally associated with it. Traveling, for me, is primarily about escaping–whether it be work, commuting, obligations, sometimes even ancestors and friends–but how is it an escape if I'm afraid about how abundant I'm spending the absolute trip?
I acknowledgment amount as something that would potentially anguish me were it not for the actuality that, in reality, it doesn't anguish me at all. At atomic not back I wised up, did the requisite analysis and accomplished myself the abettor tricks of the biking trade. Biking agents' tricks that is, because in accession to getting a connected adventurer and writer, I am aswell a accountant biking agent. Not in the faculty that I plan for others, booking their hotels, award their flights, or landing them a accord on an Alaskan cruise. Truth is, I alone use my authorization for claimed escapes (well, okay, occasionally for ancestors and accompany too, but alone if their animadversion apropos my affable acceptable lucks are decidedly flattering).
If you've never heard of this biking industry artifice before, this may complete somewhat (or completely) preposterous. In fact, however, it is absolutely accepted a part of accustomed people, both those who biking generally or but already a year, both those whose plan relates to biking to those whose plan relates alone to that which charcoal stationary. What I mean, apparent and simple, is anyone–you, me, your additional accessory Otto, or my next-door acquaintance Irene–can get their biking agent's authorization lickety-split, and anon activate accomplishment the benefits.
First things first: if authoritative biking arrange for themselves, every abettor knows not to book a individual footfall of their adventure through one of their own, i.e. added biking agents. Instead, they use biking consolidators.
Think about the aberration those terms: abettor and consolidator.
An agent, in any industry area they're arch players, acutely gets something in acknowledgment for the casework they provide. In sports, agents represent athletes, alive off the acreage to win their audience advantageous affairs and bartering cameos so the amateur can in turn, after banking distractions, apply and win on the field. For these services, agents win themselves a allotment of every accord they broker. The aforementioned is accurate in showbiz, modeling, or corporations area headhunters caster and accord multi-million dollar salaries and banal allurement affairs for their CEO clients. Likewise, then, in the biking industry, agents accept discounts, courtesies and added appropriate benefits, not from the chump for whom they book a auberge or flight, but from the bell-ringer accouterment that account (i.e. the auberge alternation or airline) who profits from the customer. As agents for airlines, etc., they drive barter against vendors whom action them the a lot of in return.
A consolidator, on the added hand, does around the opposite. Rather than aerate the costs of biking by accession fees, they combine, for the account of efficiency, the big-ticket and ambiguous locations of biking into a cheaper, added solid whole. They plan to aerate vendor's numbers, ratios and the amount per head. Anticipate about it in agreement of annual publishing: the absolute amount in press an affair is not the amount of copies made, but alone alignment and ambience the plates that will acquiesce the book run in the aboriginal place. Already that is set to go, the alone added costs are that of added cardboard and ink. The biking industry is the same, the added spaces that fill, the cheaper tickets or apartment become per person. As in any industry, consumers (i.e. travelers in this case) account from the arduous aggregate of numbers (i.e. all travelers, yourself included).
You, as a accountant biking abettor would admission appropriate acquaintance with these consolidators and the deals vendors accept to action to aerate their costs per person. But while it's all able-bodied and acceptable to accomplish arrange through a consolidator as against to an agent, just because you admission a authorization (available online in beneath an hour) doesn't beggarly the consolidator will accept you're as abundant a biking able as they are. To abstain accepted mistakes that betrayal amateurs from pros, you accept to apprentice the able argot and biking codes. For that there are volumes of eBooks (with agnate printed versions) that accommodate the requisite knowledge, which you can bound abstraction afore contacting a consolidator and calmly cast through if put on the spot. Get these references. Some of them are thick, but in absoluteness you'll absorb beneath than a hundred dollars on aggregate you charge to in about-face potentially save bags on the aboriginal cruise you plan with your biking agent's authorization in hand.
Furthermore, instead of axis to the abatement book finders like Orbitz, Expedia, Travelocity or Priceline that lay-travelers search, as a biking agent, you additionally accretion admission to the bottom known, but added advantageous sites biking consolidators utilize.
Together, the allowances will actualize about immediately. Buy even tickets the day afore the flight's appointed to depart, but alone pay what you would accept had you purchased tickets two months in advance. Get a ample cruise address berth beside the captain's abode for the amount of an ocean-level closet. Acquisition yourself abode in the seaside, amusement apartment for the amount you ability accept paid for the basement hide-a-bed beside the ice machine.
Finally, the biking industry is a awe-inspiring and admirable creature, in this case, thankfully accumulation apprenticed as abundant as added industries we generally loathe. To those who present themselves as applicable agents, announcement and appropriately earning money for the industry as a whole, it agency amaranthine perks. I get added appropriate offers from airlines, cruise lines, and packaged bout companies than I apperceive what to do with. For me, casinos, affair parks, and affluence resorts are not necessarily what I strive for, but if that is your cup of tea and your abracadabra pocus agenting appears legitimate, you'll al of a sudden acquisition yourself allotment amid the best of abounding worlds: chargeless weekends in the Napa Valley, aboriginal chic seats to Tokyo, an all amount paid safari, a cruise down the Nile…
So what are you cat-and-mouse for, get started! Acquisition a absolute eBook or alternating adviser that takes you through the action of acceptable a biking agent, step-by-step. Don't sit on this opportunity, but rather alpha traveling cheaply, today…
As for me, I've got a flight to catch…
Now, area did I put my passport?

She also grabbed another steal later to end the game with 250 in her career.
Brown led the Big 12 in steals the last two seasons, after outputs of 88 a year ago and 79 during her sophomore season. The totals rank third and eighth on Mizzou's single-season list.
Head Coach Robin Pingeton enters Saturday's contest with a career head coaching record of 349-169 and needs just one more win to reach the 350 mark. Her 349 wins have come at both the NCAA Division I and NAIA Division II level. Pingeton compiled 194 wins at St. Ambrose (NAIA), 144 at Illinois State and 11 so far at Missouri.
Senior Shakara Jones has been one of the Tigers' most consistent offensive weapons this year. The forward ranks third on the team at 10.4 ppg. and has already reached double figures a career high 17 times this year (her previous high was 15, set her freshman and sophomore seasons).
Jones started off the season up and down but has been a constant for the last two months of the season. In MU's first nine games, she averaged just 8.2 ppg. and 5.4 rpg. However, since the contest against NJIT on Dec. 19, Jones has averaged 11.7 ppg. and 6.3 rpg.
During the last 15 games, she has reached double figures 13 times, which is tied for the team high with RaeShara Brown.
The Tigers enter Wednesday's game with an 11-13 overall record despite playing one of the nation's toughest schedules to this point. As of Feb. 14, Mizzou's strength of schedule (SOS) ranks eighth in the nation by RealTimeRPI.com.
Missouri's SOS trails just Duke, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Connecticut, Baylor, Ohio State and Rutgers. It is ahead of such perenial powers as Stanford (nine) Notre Dame (24) and Michigan State (57).
Sophomore Sydney Crafton was on her game in MU's win over the Huskers on Feb. 2. The guard recorded her second career double-double with a career high 19 points and a personal best tying 12 rebounds.
Crafton scored 17 of her points in the first 20 minutes on 7-of-9 shooting from the floor. The first half output bettered her previous career high of 16 points, which she posted against UAB on Dec. 29.
She previously recorded 12 rebounds against Georgia Tech on Nov. 27.
Senior RaeShara Brown was unstoppable in the final minutes of Missouri's win over Nebraska on Feb. 2. The guard scored 22 of her team high 25 points in the second half, including 12 straight points for the Tigers with less than three minutes remaining.
With Mizzou holding a slim 61-60 lead, Brown started her points spree from a jumper and 2:57 left in the game. During the stretch, which included two shot clock buzzer beaters and four free throws, Missouri increased its lead to seven points, 73-66, and 29 seconds remaining.
Sophomore Trenee Thornton has upped her scoring in recent games, thanks in part to increased minutes. She has scored in five of the last six games and averaged 5.9 ppg. during those contests. In the first 16 games she played this year before the Colorado contest, Thornton averaged just 0.9 ppg.
She has also seen her playing time jump dramatically since Big 12 play started. She averaged 9.9 mpg. in Mizzou's 14 non-conference contests and has played 20.4 mpg. in the Tigers' nine conference games.
The Tigers entered the Jan. 19 game averaging 18.5 turnovers per game, including outputs of 26 and 27 against Texas Tech and Texas A&M on Jan. 12 and 15, respectively.
Missouri managed to hold on to the ball in games from Jan. 19 - Feb. 5, committing just 13.2 turnovers during the span.The team committed just 12 turnovers in consecutive games against Kansas State on Jan. 19 and Colorado on Jan. 22, 15 against Kansas on Jan. 26, 14 at Iowa State on Jan. 29 and a season low 10 against Nebraska on Feb. 2.
Senior Shakara Jones became the 28th player in MU history to reach 1,000 points when the forward accomplished the feat against UC Riverside on Dec. 21. She now stands at 1,157 career points after notching 12 points against Oklahoma to rank 21st all-time. She needs five more points to pass Kerensa Barr (00-03) and move into 20th.
Jones is averaging 10.4 ppg. in 2010-11 after posting marks of 10.5 ppg. as a freshman, 10.3 ppg. as a sophomore and 9.1 ppg. as a junior.
Senior RaeShara Brown's entered Mizzou career top-10 assists list after dishing out 12 against UAB on Dec. 29. After recording four on Feb. 12 against Oklahoma, she stands in seventh-place on the list with 309. She needs six more to tie Natalie Bright for sixth on the list.
Brown is averaging 4.7 apg. on the season. If she continues on her current pace, she should end her career with about 341 assists, which would rank fourth in Tiger history.
Junior Christine Flores stands in eighth-place on MU's all-time blocks list with 109 after a two-block performance against Kansas State on Feb. 5. She needs seven more to tie Stretch James (03-04) for seventh on the list.
Flores has 49 blocks so far this year, which ranks seventh on MU's single-season list. She needs four more to tie Mary Brueggestrass (82-83) for sixth on the list with 53.

Deep Purple recently posted an official lyric video for "All The Time in The World," the first single from their upcoming album, NOW What?!. The album will be released April 30 in North America via earMUSIC. The album, which was recorded in Nashville, was produced by Bob Ezrin, who worked on Kiss' Destroyer, Pink Floyd's The Wall and many other classic albums.
Hours before hopping a plane to Switzerland to perform with Alice Cooper, Orianthi — who graces the cover of the April 2013 issue of Guitar World — celebrated the release of her new album, Heaven In This Hell, by playing to a sold-out crowd at the Grammy Museum LA Live in downtown Los Angeles.
Powered by the vocals and songwriting prowess of guitarist Kevin Cronin, REO Speedwagon continues to bring their brand of Midwest rock and roll to the masses. The band tours with an arsenal of hit songs, many of which can still be found in regular rotation on classic rock radio.
Canadian progressive thrash metal veterans Voivod have released their long-awaited 16th studio album, Target Earth. The album, their first to feature guitarist Daniel "Chewy" Mongrain, also marks the return of bassist Jean-Yves "Blacky" Thériault, who hasn't recorded with the band since 1991's Angel Rat.
In the following video, Guitar World's Paul Riario tries out the Select Stratocaster HSS from Fender's new Select Series line of guitars and basses.
In the 1980's, Guitarist Craig Goldy was already having an amazing career. While playing for bands like Rough Cutt and Giuffria, his resume was already impressive. But in 1987 when the guitar slot for the legendary band Dio opened up, he would ultimately be chosen to play for the band. This raised the young guitarist into a whole new echelon of the Hard Rock and Heavy Metal universe.
SXSW might be one of the most eclectic (and insane) festivals in the world. It's become something of a brilliant disaster, with throngs of people and a band list that will soon need its own billboard just to fit everything. If you are lucky enough to get to see this spectacle, you may be a little daunted at how easy it is to get distracted, lost or both. The sensory overload provided by the throngs of people is enough to put anyone in a daze.
Today, GuitarWorld.com presents an exclusive lesson video with New York City's Resolution15. The song in the video is "Mr. Dark," which is from the band's new album, Svaha. You might notice that the video lacks guitars. That's because Resolution15 is a metal band that uses violins instead of guitars in their thrash, punk and hardcore-influenced music.
Former Iron Maiden drummer Clive Burr died last night at age 56. Burr, who had suffered from poor health for many years after being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, died peacefully in his sleep at home.
As the countdown for the June 11 arrival of Black Sabbath's 13 gets closer, the second Jack Osbourne-directed clip of the band at work on the album can now be seen below.

Gameface Media, the largest provider of free sporting event photos in the United States, today announced three major appointments: Vice President of Production and Development Brian Walker, Chief Advertising Officer Mark Herlyn and EVP of Business Development Andrew Van Ogtrop. Each of these roles are critical in Gameface Media's commitment to helping innovative brands and events create greater engagement with customers through free photos delivered via the company's unique technology platform.
Brian Walker, Vice President, Production and Development
Walker brings extensive software leadership experience in delivering high-volume consumer web applications to Gameface Media. In his current role, Walker manages the company's technology and production teams to create, aggregate and distribute the company's signature event images. Prior to joining Gameface Media, Walker was VP of Engineering at Nutraclick, a technology-driven brand building company that focused on health and wellness consumer products. At Nutraclick, he led the technology team in both strategic technical direction as well as continual optimization of day-to-day engineering operations. Walker obtained degrees in Physics and Electrical Engineering from SUNY Fredonia and Clarkson University.
Walker has had to rapidly scale operations, as Gameface Media has struck partnerships with several major events including the San Francisco Marathon and Warrior Dash. Gameface Media is projected to deliver more than 20 million photos to 2.5 million participants in 2014 – a 25X increase from 2013. Walker's operations and technology expertise will create a technology roadmap that improves the platform for event organizers, brand advertisers and, most important of all, consumers.
Walker is also an accomplished photographer who was recently honored by Northeastern University's Boston Marathon Digital Archive Project. Two of Walker's 2013 Boston Marathon finish line photos were selected for inclusion in this exhibit.
Mark Herlyn, Chief Advertising Officer
Herlyn is responsible for managing the sales team and signing brand sponsors, key areas of growth for Gameface Media. Herlyn spent 29 years selling multi-platform campaigns to major brands at the New York Times Company including American Express, General Motors, Astra Zeneca and Diageo. As the Vice President of Advertising, Herlyn helped the news publication manage its transition from print to online and personally oversaw $300 million in advertising revenue. He managed 60 Ad Directors and Account Managers across the New York, Boston, Chicago and Detroit national sales offices in this role. Herlyn is a graduate of St. Lawrence University.
Gameface Media's highly shareable content is an effective tool for savvy marketers trying to reach an affluent and highly engaged audience. The Social Media Examiner's "2014 Social Media Marketing Industry Report," reported that 70 percent of respondents said they planned to increase their use of visual images for their social campaigns. Gameface's unique business model creates brand loyalty and engagement as people are given free, professionally-shot photos of themselves that can be easily shared over social channels.
Gameface Media's effect on brand exposure is extensive and immediate. For example, if 5,000 race participants each have an average of 200 friends on Facebook and other social media, a brand logo on just one photo will be seen by approximately 250,000 people, assuming that 25 percent of participants share the image over their social channels. The reach of branded Gameface Media images is further amplified by the fact that photographers typically capture six to ten photos per participant in every race. Brands experience major increases in generating brand exposure, web traffic and leads through partnerships with Gameface Media.
Andrew Van Ogtrop, EVP of Business Development
Van Ogtrop is leading Gameface Media's expansion into the youth sports market. He brings nearly 20 years of relationship management expertise crafted from Wall Street marketing, analyst and sales roles. Van Ogtrop was most recently the Director of Boston Institutional sales for Investment Technology Group and the Global Head of Research sales for Weeden & Co., two leading providers of best-of-breed institutional research and trading. Andrew graduated from Washington College where he was a captain of the national championship runner-up DIII lacrosse team.
Youth sports are a major market opportunity for Gameface Media as research from the Minnesota Amateur Sports Commission indicates that 35 million American children currently participate in organized youth sports – roughly 9 million more people than the state of Texas.
It's hard to imagine a parent's home or office that is not covered in photos of their kids. This phenomenon is prevalent in the digital world as well –Internet security firm AVG found that 92 percent of US children have photos of them posted online before the age of two. Van Ogtrop is working with Gameface Media to capitalize on this enthusiasm by offering a value-added service to youth sport organizers in a wide range of sports including skiing, soccer and lacrosse. Gameface Media captures kids looking like their favorite athletic heroes and creates images that are great souvenirs and also attract a ton of attention from parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends to repost, 'Like' and comment upon.
"We are excited to see the market respond so enthusiastically to Gameface Media's powerful images," said Gameface Media CEO David Lavallee. "Brian, Mark and Andrew are critical in helping the company continue its rapid growth and take advantage of the most compelling digital content in the world."
About Gameface Media
Gameface Media is the largest provider of free sporting event photos in the United States. Gameface enables brands to make a deep connection with event participants by providing free photos of them participating in obstacle races, triathlons, running races, golf, skiing and youth sports. Our social media technology drives participants to an advertiser's website or Facebook page where they may be greeted with customized offers aimed at immediate conversion of these visitors into customers. The photos, branded with the company's logo, may be downloaded, saved and shared on social media outlets for free. Because Gameface Media provides all of the technology and professional photography services that enable this experience, the brand company is not required to send printed promotional materials, tents, staff or samples to the event site.

i Deputy Editor's Letter: Is GM the answer?
The world's first GM food for human consumption was introduced to the market in 1994 when a Californian company was granted a licence to sell the FlavrSavr, a tomato which was genetically altered to make it more resistant to rotting once picked. Scientists declared that it was "as safe as tomatoes bred by conventional means". It didn't last long on the market, but the US is now the biggest grower of GM crops, with large quantities used in industrial-scale biofuels.
Twenty years on, the debate over GM food is far from over. The Environment Secretary, Owen Paterson, said last year that modified crops pose no danger to us, saying that they offer the "most wonderful opportunities to improve human health" and that they could "combat the damaging effects of unpredictable weather and disease on crops". The Food Standards Agency and several scientists have backed his claims.
Critics are concerned about the possibility they will cause new food allergies, and that laboratories have too much of a commercial interest to come to a rational conclusion. They also claim that GM crops will cause irreversible adjustments to nature – something which we may not be able to notice for decades.
British scientists are about to reignite the debate, as they seek permission to conduct field trials on a crop rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Doubtless our news pages will soon feature protesters fearful of GM crops permanently damaging our fragile ecosystem, while scientists will be frantically trying to convey the benefits.
Is GM the answer? Over to you.

Arsène Wenger renews his Arsenal vows
Arsène Wenger is targeting more silverware with Arsenal after agreeing a new contract with the club until 2017.
The 64-year-old Frenchman, who is the Premier League's longest-serving manager having taken charge in 1996, ended a nine-year wait for a trophy by winning the FA Cup earlier this month.
"I want to stay," Wenger said. "We are entering a very exciting period. We have a strong squad, financial stability and huge support. We are all determined to bring more success to this club.
"The club has always shown faith in me and I'm very grateful. We have gone through fantastic periods and also periods where we have had to stick together. Every time when that togetherness was tested I got the right response. I have shown loyalty and hopefully we can make some more history. I am sure we can."
This year's FA Cup triumph was Wenger's eighth major trophy with Arsenal, having won the Premier League three times and the FA Cup five times. He has also led Arsenal to 17 successive seasons of Champions League qualification and taken charge of 1,010 Arsenal matches.
The club's majority shareholder Stan Kroenke said: "Sustained excellence is the hardest thing to achieve in sport and the fact Arsenal has competed at the top of the game in England and Europe throughout the time Arsène has been manager, is the ultimate testimony to his consistency of performance, talent and ambition.
"Under his guidance we look forward to adding more trophies in future seasons."
There was also support for the new deal from several players, including midfielder Aaron Ramsey, who tweeted: "Congratulations to the boss on signing for another 3 years, looking forward to building on last season's success."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Agent For Shea Weber Upset With Hit From Fistric
by Paul on 12/28/11 at 05:42 PM ET
Comments (0)
from TSN,
A day after Shea Weber's concussion was announced, the Nashville defenceman's agent has told TSN that he is not very happy that there was no additional punishment for the player who hit him.
"It is very disappointing that Mark Fistric's hit on Shea Weber in Dallas last Friday is not being looked at as a suspendable act," said Jarrett Bousquet, Weber's agent from Titan Sports Management Inc. "To me this is an illegal hit to the head and in complete violation of Rule 48. Fistric is a repeat offender and regardless of where the puck is, Fistric makes direct contact with Weber's head resulting in a concussion."
continued and if you need to see the hit again, you can do so here...
