Golfing legend Annika Sorenstam thinks the challenge of the sport is what attracted her to it. (Getty Images)
Rancho Mirage, Calif. — The separation between the professional and the amateur is a chasm. The novice — the amateur — has hopes. She — or he — starts with the deepest of ambitions. He — or she — aspires someday to play the chosen sport well enough to become a professional.
But then for 99 percent of normal souls with the highest ambitions there comes the awakening.
You discover some day, young usually, sometimes foolishly old, that you cannot play. It holds for every sport. You have the desire, you lack the skills.
You keep trying.
Even the rare athlete who is good enough to turn professional wishes to become a more talented professional.
"This is not just a game you come out and play," said , once a most talented professional about the frustratingly hapless sport of golf.
No, for sure it is not a game you — or anyone — comes and plays.
"Well, I've tried every sport there is," she said. "I grew up playing soccer, tennis, and golf is one of the last sports I tried and the hardest things I tried.
"I think that's why I liked it so much."
Annika Sorenstam was speaking at the Kraft Nabisco tournament being played this weekend at Mission Hills Country Club here. She was — before her retirement — a multi-major champion on the women's golf tour
She was speaking to one of the most aged of amateurs — still a novice, still a wannabe, still an angry ancient.
One tough game
It was five years ago now I looked out my window in neighboring Palm Desert and stood assimilating the loveliness of Monterey CC.
"You old fool," I told myself, "you live on a golf course and you don't play golf. Look at those old goats out there. Betcha could do as well as they do."
Old fool, indeed!
This area outside of Palm Springs has gorgeous weather most of the year — December and January included — and has perhaps a 100 golf courses, all of them also gorgeous.
So I decided to try to play, to take some lessons, and go out and aim for — well, aim for 120 and then lower. I was a mere 80 years old at the time.
And yeah, playing golf is, as Annika says, one of the hardest things I've tried.
"Every day it changes and conditions are different," Sorenstam explained. "I think that's what attracted me to the game.
"It's a mental game. It's not just about having a good swing. You've got to think right.
"You've got to have the game in the right place. Again, that's why I love it so much.
"You can go out here and just watch the players. They're very tactical and strategic, but they're great athletes.
"I think that's a combination that makes you play well."
Playing well is something that eludes the 99 percent of normal souls.
But that talent has not eluded Stacy Lewis. She is at the Kraft Nabsico in her new status of the LPGA's No. 1 golfer in the world.
"It's been chaos is what it's been," Stacy said of her climb to the top world ranking among women. "I think with all the requests and all the attention.
"I expected it, but it's been overwhelming."
And she has been overwhelming.
Stacy Lewis has been the champion of six of her last 24 tournaments in the climb to No. 1.
"It was all of a sudden," she said this past week to the golfing media in Rancho Mirage.
Amateurs for a reason
I've watched the women pros play and the men on the tour, too. They slam the ball. Bubba Watson a year ago with his 90-degree shot from the middle of nowhere that resulted in his victory at the Masters. Tiger Woods, back at No. 1, leading to this week's Masters.
The men pros belt the bejabbers out of the golf ball. The women, well, their swings are sweeter. They play golf with finesse. They are closer to purity — and they can hit their shots over water.
No. 18 at Mission Hills is on an island. Several years ago, I saw Karrie Webb hit the ball over the water from 200 or so yards away, onto the green, and watched it roll into the cup. She won the Kraft Nabisco with that shot.
I play with guys with my generational handicap. Avid amateurs and we play a couple of times a week. Nine holes. I'm lucky when I finish with a 60, my goal based on my 120 ambitions.
The biggest joke is when I come to one of the many water holes. It usually goes kerplunk. A couple of weeks ago, I did manage to get the ball over the No. 18 at the tournament course at Mission Hills. My shot rolled and rolled. Until it went over the green to the other side, through the fringe and — kerplunk.
For sure, it's mental.
Yeah, it's not a game that you are able to come out and play, just as Annika, the longtime champion, said the other day. Not for 99 percent of us, the amateur wannabes.
But it's a sport that grips a guy, even into deep senior citizenship. Even when the result is another kerplunk!

Chapter 4: Mid-`40s to the Mid-`60s
Following this rather active period of development (1931–1947), the D–18 and D–28 remained virtually un–changed for the next 20 years. There were other changes, however, which produced a pair of new Dreadnoughts and the reissue of a third.
In 1954, the Martin Company again started building Dreadnoughts with the elongated body and 12–fret neck, on a very limited basis. Designated with an "S" after the model number, the first few D–28S guitars were strictly special products.
The E. U. Wurlitzer Music Company of Boston ordered a few of these S–body guitars in 1962 to be sold only through their stores. The resulting D–28S proved to be popular enough that, in 1968, Martin added it (and the D–18S and D–35S) to its regular line. Versions of all three models are featured in the Martin "Vintage Series." According to Longworth, the factory has always given credit to Peter Yarrow (of the folk trio Peter, Paul & Mary) for popularizing the D–28S.
In 1956, a new rosewood–bodied Dreadnought, the D–21, made its first public appearance (six samples had been built in 1955). The D–21, like the D–18 and the D–28, was the Dreadnought version of an existing model (style 21).
The D–21 had the same rosewood body as a D–28, but in other features was more like a D–18: tortoiseshell–colored body binding and a rosewood fretboard and bridge.
Until the mid–'60s, Martin had always purchased rosewood in log (or "timber") form in Brazil. The wood was then resawn in the U.S. to Martin's specifications. The Brazilian government placed an embargo on timber shipments, demanding instead that the logs be resawn in Brazil. This situation proved completely unsatisfactory for the Martin Company, and it began importing rosewood from India.
The effects of Martin's decision to change to Indian rosewood occurred in stages. First, in 1965, was the introduction of a Dreadnought which allowed Martin to utilize a narrower section of wood than normally used in a D–size guitar: the three–piece back D–35. It was a brand new style, complete with fancier celluloid trim around the body, and binding on the sides of the fretboard. Unlike the D–21, the D–35 was a major success.

Outfielder Avisail Garcia doesn't have the hype that outfield prospect Nick Castellanos has but may have more value to the Tigers. (Robin Buckson/Detroit News)
Nashville, Tenn. -- The talk of the Tigers' minor league system the past two seasons has centered, squarely, on Nick Castellanos. And understandably so.
But it's not out of the realm of possibility that he'd be the ballclub's first choice to spin off in a trade, over fellow outfielder Avisail Garcia.
For starters, Castellanos has the hype, so he'd probably net more in return.
But there's also this: Garcia, no question, is the more well-rounded player, with his speed and defense, to go along with his impressive abilities at the plate.
Tigers manager Jim Leyland, for one, loves that about Garcia.
"He's the total package," Leyland said Wednesday at baseball's winter meetings. "I love two-way players. He's a two-way player."
It's a big reason Garcia, who's only nine months older than Castellanos, was the Tigers' pick for a late-season call-up. He does so many things well, team brass thought he could help in the thick of a postseason race — and he most certainly did.
To be fair, Castellanos, 20, also was knee-deep in a position change, moving from third base — where there's no immediate future with the Tigers, because of a man named Miguel Cabrera — to the outfield, and he didn't have the easiest time with the transition.
Defensive plus
Garcia, meanwhile, is a natural outfielder who has a cannon for an arm — which the White Sox, caught off guard, found out during a pivotal series in September.
"He can throw, he can run, he's a very good defender, and I think he's going to be a very good offensive player," Leyland said of Garcia. "He's really a total package player when he arrives.
"How soon he's going to arrive? I don't know."
Realistically, it could be as soon as the 2013 season.
Until the Tigers sign a right-handed-hitting corner outfielder to spell Andy Dirks against left-handed pitchers, Garcia and Castellanos will be in the discussion. And even if the Tigers do add a free agent to fill that need, nobody's disputing the possibility of Garcia or Castellanos earning a spot on the 25-man roster out of spring training anyway.
The Tigers, obviously, don't believe it's ideal to bring either one north for a bit role — say 35 or 40 games or so, against left-handed pitching — when their development would more benefit from playing on a daily basis, even if that means sticking in the minor leagues.
Opportunity knocks
But this also is fact: The Tigers are out to win, and win now, and if they think Garcia or Castellanos could help make that happen, even by way of a small role, then they won't be afraid to roll the dice.
Garcia, signed out of Venezuela as a teenager in 2007, hit .319 during extensive playing time in September for the Tigers. He even got 25 postseason plate appearances, batting .261.
One thing he hasn't showcased yet, though, is some muscle. All of his 15 regular-season hits were singles; he did have a double out of his six hits in the playoffs.
That'll soon change, Leyland said.
"He's eventually going to hit with power," said Leyland, who a couple years back also said the same thing about Austin Jackson, who has gone from four homers to 10 to 16 in his first three years. "It's usually the last thing to come."
That's not to say, of course, that Castellanos will be the first to go.
The Tigers rave at length about them both.
And there's more than enough room for in the Tigers system for both, especially when you consider Cabrera has only three years left on his contract — and figures to potentially move back to first base even before that time comes. After Victor Martinez departs following the 2014 season, Prince Fielder, another of the Tigers' defensive liabilities, can then shift to designated hitter, presumably for the rest of his career.
That would open up a possible everyday spot for Castellanos back at his natural position, third base.
But there might be a fit for him elsewhere before that, though — especially considering Major League Baseball's scouts have delivered their thesis on the blue-chipper: He'll be an impact bat, and soon. (Castellanos batted .320 in 2012, between stops at high Single A and Double A.)
Plus, Castellanos' third-base background makes him at least a tad more marketable.
Just look at how quickly third basemen are being gobbled up this offseason — Jeff Keppinger and Eric Chavez signed Wednesday, and Kevin Youkilis could be off the board very soon — while there's typically always a surplus of outfielders.
"You've got the two kids," said Leyland, discussing his options this season for the outfield, which, for sure, will feature Jackson in center and Torii Hunter in right. "Can one of them stick?"
Well, that's one question.
One just might be more likely, and not necessarily the one most of us have been thinking all along.

LSUE Represents USA at Conference
WINNIPEG, CANADA - Dr. Olivier Châtelain de Pronville, assistant professor in French and Spanish and LSU Eunice's study abroad director was invited to present a paper at the International Colloquium at the University of Manitoba, in Winnipeg, Canada, in October.
Châtelain de Pronvile, a specialist in Francophone Studies and minority languages and cultures, presented a paper entitled: "Le mitchif: une langue française de la variabilité au même titre que le joual, le picard, le créole ou le cadien devrait être reconnu comme langue et littérature francophone". He explained the importance of transcription of orality, the methodologies used in the past, in Francophone areas such as southwestern Louisiana in the U.S. or Picardie in France to achieve this objective, and the means to make Mitchif literature an emergent literature in the francophone world.
The Colloquium took place at Saint-Boniface Museum, a historical landmark originally a convent and the largest oak log structure in North America. The Title of the colloquium was "Canada: Une culture de métissage (Transcultural Canada)". At the center of this colloquium was the Mitchif Nation: a powerful Native American Nation composed of a racially mixed French/Native American people who live on a large territory on both side of the US/Canadian border stretching from Manitoba in Canada to Illinois in the United States. In the late 19th century the nation created a free state with a government and a parliament. After arm wrestling with the Canadian Government and a few battles, they obtained the creation and the attachment of the state of Manitoba to Canada in 1870.
Scholars presenting at this colloquium came from various universities in Manitoba, Alberta, Ontario, Saskatchewan and Quebec for Canada; Nantes and Clermont-Ferrand for France, The Russian Academy of Science of Moscow for Russia, Saarbrücken and Trier for Germany and Eunice, Louisiana for the United States.
Châtelain de Pronville's presentation generated a lot of interest and has been selected for a coming publication.

Install a Server/9.2
(Sorry for the inconvenience)
The System Selection Screen of the PC-BSD® installer can be used to install TrueOS®, a FreeBSD-based server operating system, rather than a PC-BSD® desktop operating system.
TrueOS® adds the following to a vanilla installation of FreeBSD: PBI Manager, the command line version of warden, and the command line versions of most of the Control Panel utilities. You will find those utilities in /usr/local/bin/pc-*. It also installs this list txt=Missing Link[1] of additional shells and utilities.
For a server installation, using the PC-BSD® installer rather than the FreeBSD installer offers several benefits:
- the ability to easily configure ZFS during installation
- the ability to configure ZFS multiple boot environments
- a wizard (described in this section) is provided during installation to configure the server for first use.
To perform a server installation, start the PC-BSD® installation as usual. When you get to the System Selection Screen of the installer, select "Server (TrueOS)", as shown in Figure 5.1a.
If you wish to install any additional server software, click the "Customize" button. This screen, shown in Figure 5.1b, can be used to install packages such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Samba, PHP, VirtualBox, Apache, and Lighttp.
After making your selections, press "Next" to start the "Server Setup Wizard". Click "Next" again to see the screen shown in Figure 5.1c.
Input and confirm the root password then click "Next" to proceed to the screen shown in Figure 5.1d.
For security reasons, you should not login as the root user. For this reason, the wizard requires you to create a primary user account that will be used to login to the FreeBSD system. This account will automatically be added to the wheel group, allowing that user to su to the root account when administrative access is required.
This screen contains the following fields:
- Name: can contain capital letters and spaces.
- Username: the name used when logging in. Can not contain spaces and is case sensitive (e.g. Kris is a different username than kris).
- Password: the password used when logging in. You must type it twice in order to confirm it.
- Default shell: use the drop-down menu to select the csh, tcsh, or sh login shell.
When finished, click "Next" to proceed to the screen shown in Figure 5.1e.
Input the system's hostname. If you will be using ssh to administer the system, check the box "Enable remote SSH login". Click "Next" to proceed to the network configuration screen shown in Figure 5.1f.
Use the "Network Interface" drop-down menu to select from the following:
- AUTO-DHCP-SLAAC: (default) will configure every active interface configured for DHCP and both IPv4 and IPv6
- AUTO-DHCP: will configure every active interface for DHCP and IPv4
- IPv6-SLAAC: will configure every active interface for DHCP and IPv6
Alternately, select the device name for the interface that you wish to manually configure and input the IPv4 and/or IPv6 addressing information. When finished, click "Next" to proceed to the screen shown in Figure 5.1g.
If you wish to install FreeBSD source or ports, check the associated box(es) then click "Finish" to exit the wizard and access the summary screen shown in Figure 5.1h.
Click "Customize" if you wish to proceed to the Disk Selection Screen in order to configure the system's disk(s).
If you wish to save the finished configuration to re-use it at a later time, insert a FAT-formatted USB stick and click "Save Config to USB".
Once you are ready to start the installation, click "Next". A pop-up menu will ask if you would like to start the installation now.
Once the system is installed, it will boot to a command-line login prompt. Login using the primary user account that was configured during installation. You can now configure and use the server as you would any other FreeBSD server installation. The FreeBSD Handbook[2] is an excellent reference for performing common FreeBSD server tasks.

The objectives and operational plan for the British Business Bank, revealed earlier today by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) in a strategy update, has been broadly welcomed today by ACCA (The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).
Manos Schizas, Senior Economic Analyst at ACCA, said: 'We know that many will be disappointed to find that the bank will not be lending directly to businesses. We are not. It is good to see that BIS has instead given the Bank a clear remit to reshape the market by supporting new products and new finance providers.'
ACCA still believes that some details need to be clarified. The global body for accountants said it hopes that the Bank will be allowed to use the £2.9 billion of commitments it has inherited from existing schemes as it sees fit, and will have simple reporting lines to government and parliament so that it won't be distracted from its mission.
ACCA acknowledges that Autumn 2014, when the Bank will finally be spun off from BIS, may not seem soon enough to many stakeholders. However, the ACCA notes that the Business Bank is not meant to provide a short-term intervention, but rather a central plank to the UK's long-term industrial policy.
Manos Schizas explained: 'The Bank needs to become an institution around which entirely new markets are built – it will need to still be there 50 years from now. How much lending or investment it facilitates in year one is completely beside the point, although I appreciate that the government can't be seen to take this view. We can only hope that Sir Peter Burt and his Advisory Group will.'
ACCA believes that, once pilots are complete later in 2013, the Bank's work programme needs to be matched with initiatives to engage investors and secure deal flow for the Bank. Because of this, ACCA welcomes the initiative to consolidate advice for growing businesses under the bank's brand.
Manos Schizas concluded: 'We hope that professional accountants can do much of the Bank's marketing for it – their links to business are deeper and stronger than those of government. In the long term, however, it's also important to see how the profession can work with intermediaries to provide a steady stream of high-quality referrals.'
- Business Bank Strategy Update - The Government has today published a strategy update on the business bank, which:
- quantifies the resources which the bank will use
- outlines the range of activities of the bank
- sets out key milestones for its operations.

Devin Gardner has led Michigan to two victories during Denard Robinson's absence. (John T. Greilick/Detroit News)
Ann Arbor There was a time, shortly after college, when I rented my first apartment and, along with a couple roommates, discovered we'd struck gold.
Free cable! The local provider failed to shut it off after the last tenant moved out, and for months nobody seemed the wiser. No premium channels, only one connection worked — but who were we to complain? It was better than the alternative, right?
I've always felt that way about Michigan's coaching staff and Denard Robinson. He's not the quarterback they would have recruited, but who were they to complain? He sure beat the alternative, along with most of the defenses on the Wolverines schedule, often in record-setting fashion. And as free entertainment goes, it doesn't get much better than Robinson in the open field.
"I can honestly say that he's the most electric player that I've ever coached," offensive coordinator Al Borges said Tuesday. "And a joy to coach, I might add."
A joy to watch, too, which is why he'll be rightly hailed as his college career winds to a close this week and next, and then again next month as the Wolverines prepare for another New Year's Day bowl.
But chances are, we've seen the last of Robinson as Michigan's starting quarterback. The ulnar nerve injury that has sidelined him since the first half of an Oct. 27 loss at Nebraska takes weeks to heal, if not months, or surgery. And coach Brady Hoke's cat-and-mouse games with the media notwithstanding, that reality — along with Robinson's NFL prospects — figures to leave the senior stuck in this new dual-threat role: as an extra coach and cheerleader on the sideline while Devin Gardner succeeds him under center.
"Every so often Coach Denard will get on the phones with me and suggest something," Borges said, chuckling. "He's been awesome. And I think Devin would tell you that. It's driving him crazy not to be able to play, and I think he'd tell you that. But he is into the game as much as he would be if he was playing, from a mental perspective, anyway."
Funny like clown?
There are different ways to view all this, of course.
Robinson certainly has earned the right to finish what he started here, if he's able. And make no mistake, if not for him, the transition for Hoke & Co. the last two years would've been quite a bit more like the last one in Ann Arbor than many people want to admit.
But just the same, it's hard not to look at this and see the glass half full. Because even as Michigan chases a Big Ten title to the finish, it is getting a head start on the future with Gardner taking the reins and taking charge, as the junior did in last weekend's 38-31 overtime victory over Northwestern.
"I mean, I knew my time would come eventually, whether it was this year or next year," said Gardner, who passed for 286 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for 47 yards and another score. "It just happened to come a little earlier than expected."
Borges, for his part, played an impromptu game of word association with the media Tuesday.
Denard Robinson?
"Fast," Borges replied. "That's the first word that comes into my mind."
Devin Gardner?
"Funny," Borges said. "He's a pretty funny guy."
Funny thing is, that might've been part of the problem if Robinson had bolted when Rich Rodriguez was fired and Gardner had been thrust into this starting role too fast. Described good-naturedly by senior linebacker Kenny Demens as "a silly person, a clown," Gardner probably wasn't ready as a sophomore to be the kind of leader a team needs.
But you hear him talk after the victory over Northwestern — "This is Denard's team, and it's always going to be Denard's team until he's gone," Gardner said — and you get the sense he's growing into one.
"As you gain success, those things tend to come," Borges said. "And I say they tend to come because just because you're successful doesn't make you a leader. Some guys grasp that, some don't. He is beginning to evolve into a better leader all the time. But it's hard to lead until you earn the respect of your teammates, and he's in the process, I think, of doing that. Still, it's a work in progress."
The only option
So is Borges' offense, as everyone knows. And it's no secret Gardner's skill set is a better fit than Robinson's for what that'll eventually be. Saturday was just another glimpse, as the Wolverines largely ditched the shotgun and the spread and passed the ball more aggressively — and more accurately — downfield.
Borges said Gardner "missed a couple reads" and made a few passes "that shouldn't have been thrown." But he also raved about the read and throw he made on a corner route to Roy Roundtree in overtime, and a run checkdown that led to a first-half touchdown, among other decisions.
Deciding when to pass and when to run is part of what Borges calls "a delicate balance" for a quarterback.
"And I think that's an instinctive thing," he said. "You can coach some of that, but some guys just got it."
Gardner's got it. He turned a half-dozen pass plays into gains with his scrambling ability, something Robinson — inexplicably — seems reluctant to do. And something that's absolutely necessary given the current Michigan offensive line.
But again, this really isn't about who's a better option right now because Gardner —no longer moonlighting as a receiver — is the only option. It's not even about trying to get Borges to admit he has a preference, because he's no more likely to do that than Hoke is to give you an expansive answer about an injury.
"Nope. Nope. Nope," Borges said when asked to do just that. "We just go to a different plan. There's no more comfort one way or another. As long as the ball's moving, I'm comfortable."
But as painful as it is to watch Robinson sit — "It's really hard because Denard absolutely loves this program," defensive coordinator Greg Mattison said — there is some comfort in this: The ball's moving forward, and so is the program.

With the right guidance, most families can build a financially secure future. One way to do that is having a clear plan on how to meet looming college bills. Here are some suggestions to help you save for college.
Determine specific savings goals
Consider the number of children you have, how many years until they start college and where they may attend college. Review your current savings and your projected needs to determine how much you will need to save each month to reach your target.
Take action
Having a plan is a great start, but plans mean nothing without follow through. Set up an automatic investment plan to add to your savings on a regular basis. The sooner you start saving, the more time your money has to grow. Be sure to diversify your portfolio among investments to seek the best returns while reducing overall risk.
Seek the help of a financial professional
Financial professionals can be your best allies in saving for college. A professional can assist you in estimating the costs for college. In addition, a professional can help you evaluate which college savings vehicles are best for you and can explain tax-advantaged savings accounts, such as 529 college savings plans or Coverdell education savings accounts.
Let me help
Backed by a team of experts, I'll lay out your choices for funding a child's future education. Working with you one-on-one, we'll determine the best way for you to reach your education funding needs, no matter where you're starting from. Give me a call to find out more.

Timelines enable the Remember The Milk API to allow certain actions to be undone. The Remember The Milk web application requests a new timeline every time the application is visited — it is up to the API user to determine how often to request a new timeline. Timelines do not expire, but they must always be used.
Timelines can be thought of as long-running database transactions within which individual sub-transactions (API method calls) can be reverted. The start of a timeline is a snapshot of the state of a users' contacts, groups, lists and tasks at that point in time. Method calls can be reverted continouously until the start of the timeline is reached.
list and
task methods require a timeline. New timelines can be obtained by calling the
rtm.timelines.create method.
If successful, the
list and
task methods return a
<transaction> element. The
id attribute of this element points to a transaction within the timeline passed to the called method. If the called method is revertable, an
undoable attribute is set on the
<transaction> element with a value of
A call to
rtm.transactions.undo with a
transaction_id that is
undoable will revert a
list or
task to its state prior the method call being reverted.
After authentication and getting a valid token, we ask for a timeline (rtm.timelines.create):
<rsp stat="ok"> <timeline>744432</timeline> </rsp>
We then use this timeline value to call
rtm.tasks.setPriority to change the priority of a task from
2 to
<rsp stat="ok"> <transaction id="448653398" undoable="1"/> <list id="387546"> <taskseries id="650390" created="2006-05-08T11:33:22Z" modified="2006-05-08T11:34:28Z" name="Demonstrate Timelines" source="api"> <tags/> <participants/> <notes/> <task id="815255" due="" has_due_time="0" added="2006-05-08T11:33:22Z" completed="" deleted="" priority="1" postponed="0" estimate=""/> </taskseries> </list> </rsp>
We now have our
<transaction> element. We decide that we want to revert the task's priority back to what it was (
2) – so we call
rtm.transactions.undo with a

<rsp stat="ok"/>
We then check the state of our task by calling

Michigan State guard Gary Harris tries to drive past Ohio State guard Aaron Craft on Saturday night at Breslin Center. (Dale G. Young/Detroit News)
East Lansing — Style points have never really been Michigan State coach Tom Izzo's style.
But the longer his team stays in the hunt for another Big Ten title — at the moment, the Spartans are sitting alone atop the conference standings — the more he'll point to Saturday night's 59-56 win over No. 11 Ohio State at the Breslin Center as the reason why.
"I don't know if it was pretty to watch or not," Izzo said, exhaling loudly as he began his postgame news conference. "But it was a hell of a game."
Lately, they always are when these two teams meet, aren't they? The last three matchups have been decided by four points or fewer, with the Spartans winning two, including Saturday's tug-of-war.
And when this one was over, after a panicked 3-point try by Ohio State's Shannon Scott caromed wildly off the backboard a couple seconds before time expired, Izzo met at midcourt with Ohio State coach Thad Matta for an extended chat, while their players headed to the locker rooms to count their teeth.
Asked later what the two coaches talked about, Matta laughed and replied, "Just how hard this is."
It's never been harder in the Big Ten, you could argue, with six teams ranked in the top 25 — a list that didn't even include the league leader heading into Saturday night, when Wisconsin suffered its first conference loss at Iowa.
But while Michigan and Indiana began conference play earlier this month as the odds-on favorites, perhaps, it's the two teams that squared off in East Lansing that have been the standard bearers for the last several years. And still figure to have their say in this year's race.
Best bloodlines
Ohio State's three losses before Saturday came at Duke, Kansas and Illinois, and the Buckeyes already have a win over Michigan under their belt. Michigan State's lone loss in its last dozen games came at Minnesota in the Big Ten opener, and they've got a win over Kansas, too.
"You've got what I would consider — and I don't want to say this and step out of bounds — but two of the top college basketball programs going head-to-head," said Matta, whose team is coming off a Final Four trip last spring and consecutive 30-win seasons. "In this league, it's kind of been us battling. We've won five of the last seven Big Ten championships, and they've probably won the ones we haven't."
One of them, actually, to go with two other shared titles the last four seasons for Izzo & Co.
But this rivalry seems to run even deeper than that, at least in part because Ohio State has won four games in East Lansing since 2006, while the rest of the Big Ten has won six combined.
"For whatever reason — I don't know if the styles clash or what — we've had some unbelievable battles in here," said Matta, whose teams had won three of their last four at the Breslin Center.
Saturday's slugfest certainly was another of those. Both teams shot under 45 percent from the field, while committing 30 fouls and 27 turnovers. Michigan State didn't have a double-figure scorer until only a few minutes remained in the game. Ohio Sate got half its points from star Deshaun Thomas and 9-for-27 shooting from the rest of the team.
But in this league, it's rarely a beauty pageant. Which, of course, makes nights like this one a sight to behold for Izzo, whose team finished plus-9 in the rebound margin and dominated with a 34-14 advantage in points in the paint.
"I love it, huh?" the Spartans' coach said. "This is why you play, man. It is a classic game, in different ways. I didn't think there was (bad) shooting. I just think, I mean, both teams played hard."
Perseverance counts
There's that word again. Be prepared to hear it repeated — again and again — as the Big Ten's best teams take turns beating each other up for the next several weeks. And the more you do, the more you might like Michigan State's chances.
Because as hard as it might be to envision these Spartans (16-3, 5-1 Big Ten) staying on top — back-to-back tests at Wisconsin and Indiana are looming this week — it's obvious Izzo is mildly surprised by his "strange" team's success thus far.
"We did two things really well tonight, that we've continuously done," he said, parroting something MSU football coach Mark Dantonio told him recently. "We really fought in the last five minutes. And we're finding ways to win. And as much as that might frustrate you like it does me, at times, it shows a little character."
Saturday, the Spartans showed it in front of a noisy crowd of 14,797 — easily the loudest of the season — at Breslin Center, where they've won 29 of their last 30 games.
"Man, it was amazing tonight," said guard Keith Appling, who scored the final six points to seal the win. "Our fans, they brought everything tonight. They brought everything they could."
The lone blemish in that Breslin streak, by the way, was last year's regular season finale, a 72-70 loss to the Buckeyes that forced a three-way tie for the Big Ten title. That wasn't something the players talked much about this week. But that's only because none of them needed any reminders of what it felt like, a Senior Day spoiled both by a crushing defeat and the season-ending knee injury suffered by Branden Dawson, who certainly showed no ill effects Saturday as he grabbed 10 rebounds.
"This was a pretty big one," Appling admitted afterward. "We knew what it meant."
And it showed, the way it always seems to when these two teams get together. If it wasn't Appling pounding his hands on the floor in a defensive stance, it was Ohio State's Aaron Craft diving on the floor for one of his five steals. And if it wasn't Thomas draining another 3-pointer — six in all Saturday — it was Adreian Payne with a critical 3-point play late.
As mid-January games in the Big Ten go, this was about as entertaining as it gets.
"You get these rivalries," Izzo said. "We had them (in the Big Ten) in the 2000s, when it was Wisconsin-Illinois, and then it became Ohio State and us. You get these things where you have a couple years where the games are so, so tight and so important."
And so easy to ignore all the flaws and enjoy it for what it was: A hard-earned win.

A risk factor is something that increases your likelihood of getting a disease or condition.
It is possible to develop colorectal cancer with or without the risk factors listed below. However, the more risk factors you have, the greater your chance of developing colorectal cancer. If you have a number of risk factors, ask your doctor what you can do to reduce your risk.
Risk factors for colorectal cancer include the following:
Genetic Factors
Heredity is perhaps the strongest risk factor for developing colorectal cancer. It is estimated that approximately 20% of all cases of colorectal cancer are hereditary. This risk increases if you have a primary relative, such as a parent, sibling, or child who develops colorectal cancer.
Hereditary colon cancer occurs at a younger age. As a result, anyone with a history of colon cancer in a relative should seek screening early. Guidelines recommend a screening at age 40 or 10 years younger than the earliest age at which a relative developed colon cancer, whichever is younger. Even in the absence of hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), the presence of the disease before age 60 in near relatives increases one's own risk.
The two most common forms of inherited colon cancer are:
- Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC)—This is a fast-growing form of colorectal cancer. It accounts for about 5%-15% of all colorectal cancer cases. Typically, people with this form develop cancer in their 40s.
- Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP)—People with this type of colorectal cancer develop hundreds of polyps at a very young age, sometimes as early as their teens. Initially, polyps are benign but do become cancerous over time. This type of colorectal cancer is rare. It only occurs in 1% of all colon cancer cases. If you have these polyps, the likelihood that you will develop colon cancer is almost 100%. Many patients have most of their colon removed as a preventive measure.
Colorectal cancer most commonly occurs after age 50, though certain forms of this cancer may develop earlier. However, colorectal cancer can occur at any age.
Lifestyle Factors
Colorectal cancer has been strongly associated with lifestyle factors. The following factors may increase your risk of developing colorectal cancer:
- Diet—Diets high in fat, particularly fat from animal sources, and low in fiber have been associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer. Eating a diet that is high in fruits and vegetables may help lower the risk.
- Lack of exercise—Regular exercise has been shown to decrease the risk of developing colorectal cancer. Even moderate exercise of 30 minutes per day is beneficial.
- Obesity —Obesity increases the risk of colorectal cancer, particularly when weight is distributed in the waist, rather than on the hips and thighs.
- Smoking —Smokers are at increased risk of getting colorectal cancer and dying due to colorectal cancer than nonsmokers.
- Alcohol —Three or more alcoholic beverages a day increases risk of colorectal cancer. Drinking alcohol is also associated with a higher risk of forming large benign tumors called colorectal adenomas.
Although both men and women develop colorectal cancers, men are at a higher risk.
Medical Conditions
The following medical conditions have been shown to increase the risk of developing colorectal cancer:
- Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease
- Polyps
- Previous colorectal cancer

A clinical trial is a test in humans of an experimental medication or therapy. Clinical trials are experiments, not treatments, and participation requires careful consideration.
Although it's possible to benefit from participating in a clinical trial, it's also possible that no benefit — or even harm — may occur. Keep your MDA clinic doctor informed about any clinical trial participation. (Note that MDA has no ability to influence who is chosen to participate in a clinical trial.)
For more about clinical trials in general, see Learn About Clinical Studies, and to learn more about trial participation in neuromuscular disease, read the Quest magazine article Being a Co-Adventurer.

Bloomington, Ind. — After Michigan's disappointing loss to No. 3 Indiana on Saturday, Trey Burke sat distraught and answered questions about his team's second defeat of the season.
It was the familiar refrain about the Wolverines digging into a double-digit deficit and having to climb out. Much like its other loss of the season, at Ohio State, U-M had to fight an uphill climb and just came up short in its 81-73 loss at Assembly Hall.
"That's just something we're continuing to get better at and we're just trying to continue to learn from a team going on certain runs and responding to them at a poised pace," Burke said. "On the road against a team like Indiana, you have to stay poised when they go on certain runs."
U-M trailed by 21 at Ohio State and fell behind by 15 at Indiana on Saturday. Though the Hoosiers seemed unable to miss in the opening five minutes, they threw the first punch — and the second.
If Michigan (20-2, 7-2 Big Ten) is going to remain an elite-level team, it will have to figure out a way to click on all cylinders on the biggest stages.
The sky isn't falling for the Wolverines, who are just a game behind Indiana for first place in the conference standings.
But just as they did against Ohio State in the Big Ten Tournament last year and against Ohio in the NCAA Tournament, they didn't match the intensity to start the game. Indiana, buoyed by ESPN's GameDay production all day on Saturday, was primed to go for the No. 1 vs. No. 3 matchup.
Not much lost — yet
"Sometimes in these situations, when there is so much attention and hoopla and hype surrounding a game, it can't live up to it — and this one did, I think," Indiana coach Tom Crean said. "We knew Michigan was really good but after being on the court with them for a couple of hours, they're even better than I thought as a coach and I think we've watched as much film as we could over the last couple of weeks."
The Wolverines likely still will be ranked in the top five when the rankings are released on Monday, but they will have to find a second gear if they are going to make it through the next stretch of games, which include another matchup Tuesday against Ohio State, followed by road games at Wisconsin and Michigan State.
How Michigan bounces back from Saturday's loss may chart the course for the rest of the season. Beilein is mindful to keep things positive in trying to assess their performance against the Hoosiers.
"That's all we're going to be talking about — they're going to be yes faces from the coaches tomorrow in the locker room. It doesn't get any easier," Beilein said. "We can't be patting each other on the back and moral victories. We're very disappointed but we can't dwell on it — we can't let them (mentally) beat us twice."
Too cautious
In both losses, some of Michigan's freshmen have played tentatively. Glenn Robinson III, who averages 12.1 points, was held to two points on 1-of-6 shooting. Nik Stauskas, (12.6 points), had 10 on 3-of-10 shooting.
In the Ohio State game, Stauskas was held scoreless and Robinson had just eight points.
Indiana seemed willing to let Trey Burke (25 points) and Tim Hardaway (18 points) beat them, but not anyone else.
"It's just all part of it. We have to continue to try to have both the coaching staff and guard play continue to recognize what people are doing and how we can get Glenn even more involved," Beilein said. "They have a good defensive team but they have a couple of guys that really in one-on-one matchups are exceptional."
Indiana's Victor Oladipo, regarded as one of the top defenders in the country, switched off on Burke, Hardaway and Robinson, minimizing their effectiveness — just as Ohio State's Aaron Craft did on Burke — and made Michigan try to find a different option.
Beilein might have found part of that answer in freshman Mitch McGary, who had 10 points and seven rebounds and played good defense on Cody Zeller. The pieces are still developing — and many of them are freshmen — but the next three games will tell whether Michigan is a pretender or contender in the Big Ten race.
If they're contenders, the Wolverines will have to have more answers in big games than they did Saturday.
