VALATIE — A conservationist. A philanthropist. An avid supporter of the arts. These were just a few of the hats worn by a woman famous for her cultural contributions Judy Grunberg, of Valatie, well-known for her generosity to the arts in the region, died Saturday after a battle with cancer. She was 86. Most famously, Grunberg supported the county’s rich art culture. She is the founder of PS21 performance space in
Chatham, which played host to a number of films, dancers and live performances of theater and music from across the United States. “We want PS21 to bring people together and for the arts to become a part of their lives,” said Grunberg, who was the PS21 board president, in a Register-Star article published Feb. 18, 2018. Grunberg founded PS21 in 1999 and served as board president until her death. The first performances were presented in 2006 under a temporary tent
venue in Chatham. For 12 seasons, the tent was the site of classical music, modern dance, theater and film screenings, as well as workshops and free performances for children. “She [Grunberg] is a tremendous visionary in our community,” Columbia County Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Jeffrey Hunt said. “At this year’s Best Of Columbia County Awards, I called her the matriarch of our arts, culture and business community because she has given her soul to this
community in terms of exposing the community to arts and culture and its creative side.” Hunt called her a tremendous businesswoman who loved Chatham and the county. Grunberg started the Chatham Area Business and Arts group, or CABA, which is a coalition of individuals, businesses and organizations working to promote the Chatham community. She was the owner of The Blue Plate, a bistro in Chatham, and a major supporter of Art Omi and the Crandell Theatre. Grunberg also served as a
board member of Time & Space Ltd. “Judy Grunberg joined the TSL board early in the 1990s. The moment we met we fell in love with this amazing woman,” TSL co-founder Linda Mussmann said Monday. “Judy believed in our mission and never once flagged in support of our work. We are heartbroken. Her contributions go far beyond her financial gifts. What she leaves us is her undying love for art and important causes, both big and small. A great and good woman has died and we all honor her.”

Twin County voters will have the option of early voting this year, beginning Oct. 26. Available dates will include Saturdays and Sundays.
The state has given $10 million to county governments to implement early voting beginning this year. The state Board of Elections is distributing $15,000 to each county for every early polling site. The funding allocation was approved by the New York State Division of Budget. Columbia County will have three early voting sites and has been allocated an additional $45,000, and Greene County will have one, and will be given an additional $15,000 by the state. Columbia County’s polling sites will be at the Columbia County Board of Elections Office, 401 State St., Hudson; the MH Glynn Municipal Building, 3211 Church St., Valatie; and Copake Town Hall, 230 Mountain View Road, Copake. “Voting will be exactly as it always has
been on Election Day — on a paper ballot that the voter will vote and then scan into a voting machine,” said Virginia Martin, Democratic commissioner of the Columbia County Board of Elections. “Sign-in will be a little different. To accommodate the flexibility that voters have, we will be signing voters in on new electronic poll books, which are special tablets that have been programmed with the voter rolls.” Absentee voting will be available. Columbia County Board of Elections Republican Commissioner Jason Nastke said early voting will offer more options to people looking to cast their ballot. “I think this gives voters a greater chance to participate in the democratic process by opening up the amount of hours available to them to cast their vote,” Nastke said. “Last year, 18% of the vote in Columbia County was cast
by absentee ballot. I think early voting should cut down on that significantly.” In Greene County, there will be one early polling site, at the county building, 411 Main St., Suite 430, Catskill. “This is to encourage voting,” Greene County Administrator Shaun Groden said. “If you open it up to more than 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Election Day, will more people vote? If you don’t vote at all, then will early voting help you? I think that remains to be seen because people who respect voting are already voting, and I have to wonder if the additional time will increase the number of voters.” Early voting will be open to anyone who is registered to vote. “You just show up at the location, and then you will follow the same procedures you always did,” Groden said. Assemblyman Chris Tague, R-102, is concerned the new system would
complicate matters for smaller districts. “The cost, labor and operation have a very heavy impact on the county and the poll workers who are going to be required to be there,” Tague said. State Sen. Daphne Jordan, R-43, had concerns about the cost and administrative hurdles for local boards of election. “Downstate Democrats, who are completely out-of-touch with upstate, drove these early voting mandates, further proof that they don’t understand the needs of our upstate communities and taxpayers,” Jordan said. Assemblyman Jake Ashby, R-107, hopes the new system will encourage more people to vote. For the November election, voting will begin Oct. 26 and will run through Nov. 3. On Monday, Nov. 4, there will be no voting, and the general election is Tuesday, Nov. 5, at the usual polling sites.
EV charger era arrives in Twin Counties By Amanda Purcell Columbia-Greene Media
HUDSON — Three electric car charging stations will be installed in the municipal lot behind City Hall for local residents, shoppers and visitors thanks to a grant from the state. The city received pre-approval from the New York State Energy Research and Development for a $24,000 grant reimbursement for the charging stations behind 520 Warren St. The grant was secured by the city’s Economic Development Committee, lead by 4th Ward Alderman Rich Volo. The city will announce when the charging stations are installed at a later date. “These EV charger stations will make it possible for people to stop in Hudson and charge their electric cars while
eating at restaurants or shopping in town,” Volo said. “The chargers will be useful for residential renters or property owners who might be unable to install car chargers at home.” The charging stations are one way that the city can do its part to limit its reliance on fossil fuels and lower carbon emissions, Volo said. The city previously received a $22,000 grant from National Grid to pay for excavation and construction costss. “The city of Hudson is grateful to NYSERDA for their financial assistance in providing three electric vehicle charging stations to be installed in the municipal lot behind City Hall,” Mayor Rick Rector said in a statement. “Special thanks to Alderman Rich Volo for his role in working with NYSERDA and the Economic
Development Committee to facilitate this important project for the city.” Drivers will be able to locate the Hudson ports on the downloadable EV Car Charging station phone app. Revenue will go into the city’s general fund. The grant is part of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Charge Ready NY established in 2018. It provides charging stations to qualifying private employers, building owners, municipalities and nonprofit organizations. NYSERDA set aside $5 million for the project, as part of a plan to install 1,250 new charging ports throughout the state. The city will follow the village of Catskill in the Twin Counties which announced last month it will install two new chargers in municipal lot across from the Community Theatre.
In the Twin Counties, the towns of Catskill, Greenville, Gallatin, Kinderhook, Hillsdale, Ancram, Chatham, Ghent, Canaan and Austerlitz, the villages of Kinderhook and Philmont and city of Hudson are designated as Clean Energy Communities. To qualify as a Clean Energy Communities must achieve a 10% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from municipal buildings; install EV charging stations or use alternative fuel municipal vehicles; solarize clean heating and cooling for municipal buildings; energy code enforcement training; obtain a Climate Smart Community certification from the state Department of Environmental Conservation; Community Choice Aggregation; and Energize New York Finance, for example.

OUR VIEW
Get a handle on the overdose crisis As drug counselors and many others gathered at the state Capitol in Albany last week to rally for action against the region’s overdose crisis, they remembered loved ones who died from overdoses, recalled their mission and sent a message that more work has to be done. Attending rallies and holding open forums are important for raising public awareness of drug addiction, the dangers of opioids and the proliferation of legal but overprescribed painkillers. This rally, the second of its kind, reminds the public
that there are people out there who care and will listen. It is also a way to make the counselors and advocates heard in Albany’s legislative chambers and statehouse. For example, Gov. Andrew Cuomo swore to authorize four “harm reduction” sites to see how they would work. Harm reduction involves taking steps to reduce the risk of overdosing and minimizing other harm while addicted to drugs. To date there has been no movement on these sites. The counselors recognize that not everyone is at a place
where they are ready to recover. But they can coach addicts on ways to help save their lives and get them to the point where they are ready to take the big first step toward recovery. Seventy thousand people died in the United States last year from overdoses and drugrelated deaths. Some among that number were from the Twin Counties. But the government response is not even close to the seriousness of this issue. Getting a handle on the overdose crisis should be proactive, not reactive, to spikes in fatality statistics.

If they are serious about long-term maintenance of our nuclear deterrent, they have to be for domestic production and enrichment of uranium. If they are serious about national security in every dimension, they will agree with what the president said in his July memorandum: that the country must “reinvigorate the entire nuclear fuel supply chain, consistent with United States national security and nonproliferation goals.” In that memo, the president set a deadline of 90 days for recommendations from the team entrusted with this crucial decision, a deadline that is approaching fast. The recommendations he receives will set a course for U.S. nuclear policy for decades. The time to pay attention is now.

Bureaucrats defying Trump have got it all wrong Charles Lane The Washington Post
President Donald Trump has been destabilizing U.S. politics, and the country’s position in international affairs, since he took office. For the unelected but conscientious officials who serve under, and owe their legal duties to, the office of the president, the dilemma from Day One has been: What’s a bureaucrat to do? Bill Dudley, who until last year was president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, provided one sort of answer in an Tuesday opinion article for Bloomberg Opinion: He urged the Fed to defy Trump openly and hasten his political downfall. Trump’s tariffs on China (and others) threaten economic growth, but to counteract that by easing monetary policy, as the Fed has done, only enables the president to pursue his trade war, Dudley argued. Therefore, the central bank must refuse to ease; if it reduces job, income and investment prospects for Americans, Trump, not the Fed, “will own the consequences of his actions.” Not only was Dudley untroubled by the use of Fed power to undercut the president in an election year, but also he declared doing so consistent with the Fed’s legal mandate. “If the goal of monetary policy is to achieve the best longterm economic outcome,” he wrote, “then Fed officials should consider how their decisions will affect the political outcome in 2020.” Apparently, the Fed must destroy the U.S. economy — and its own political impartiality — to save them. Economic policy experts, appropriately, recoiled. Former treasury secretary Lawrence Summers said it “might be the least responsible
statement by a former financial official in decades.” Dudley’s proposal did, however, have one advantage: transparency and forthrightness. Compare the passiveaggressive resistance former FBI Director James Comey offered before, and just after, his firing by Trump in May 2017, described by the Justice Department inspector general in a highly critical report released Thursday. In a fateful Feb. 14, 2017, private meeting, Trump sounded out Comey about dropping the investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn; this appalled the FBI chief, but he neither questioned the president at the meeting nor informed his superiors later nor resigned on principle. He stayed on, sitting noncommittally through awkward meetings with Trump - and writing memos to the file. Then, when Trump fired him, Comey leaked a memo’s contents to The New York Times via a friend, with the goal, subsequently realized, of triggering the appointment of a special counsel. The ambiguous results of that investigation — like those of Comey’s 2016 efforts to finetune public perceptions of the non-prosecution of Hillary Clinton for her email misadventure — have resulted in, well, a mixed legacy for Comey. Admirers see him as making the best of a tight situation; the inspector general brands his policy-driven leak a “dangerous” bending of rules designed to keep the FBI strictly apolitical. Whatever you think about that, Comey’s rationale for leaking the way he did is puzzling. After his firing, he was free to hold a news conference accusing Trump of obstructing justice, as the inspector general acknowledged. Comey favored roundabout disclosure
because speaking out would generate an unbearable press scrum — “like feeding seagulls at the beach,” as he put it. The country and Comey would be better off if he had at least tried to go through channels first, then blown his whistle openly, damn the consequences. Which brings us to former defense secretary Jim Mattis, and a third possible answer to the bureaucrat’s dilemma: limit the damage Trump does while you’re in office, resign over policy disagreements when they get too wide — but refrain from overt, public condemnation of the commander in chief during or after your service. Mattis stuck to that plan even as he rolled out his new book last week. An excerpt in The Wall Street Journal implied, not very obliquely, disgust with Trump’s toxic management style and his failure to “kee[p] faith with our allies” — but never named the president. Mattis never crossed the lines of hypocrisy, disloyalty or dishonesty. The downside of this assiduous reputationpreservation is that Mattis stands accused of lending “his honor and integrity to the Trump administration,” as Jason Dempsey, a retired Army officer who has written extensively about civil-military relations, put it in an interview last week with The Washington Post. Then again, if Mattis did speak out more explicitly, even his words might eventually degenerate into so much grist for Twitter and cable television. Maybe that is why the Constitution does not rely on the bureaucracy but on other institutions to check presidential excess: term limits, courts, Congress and, ultimately, elections. The people have already chastened Trump by ending his party’s control of Congress in 2018 and might well oust him altogether next year.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Direct Support Professional Week recognized To the editor: The week of Sept. 8 is being officially recognized as Direct Support Professional (DSP) Week by the Governor, OPWDD, the Legislature and not-for-profit providers who support individuals with developmental disabilities all across New York state. Coarc is taking this opportunity to recognize all of our hard working employees, each of whom plays an important role in the overall success of Coarc and the quality of the services we provide, but especially our Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) who work so tirelessly and closely
with the individuals we support to enhance the quality of their lives. Direct Support Professionals play a very critical role in helping individuals with developmental disabilities live a fulfilling life. They assist with medication administration, assist individuals with daily living skills as needed, provide person-centered supports which enable people to achieve their own goals, foster independence, growth and community integration, and provide complicated documentation needed to receive Medicaid reimbursement.
I am continually impressed by the dedication and commitment of all Coarc employees and I’m sure I speak for the Board of Directors and Leadership Team when I say I am thankful for such a wonderful workforce. DSP Week provides us with a special opportunity to recognize Coarc’s most valuable asset; our employees. So if you know someone who works as a Direct Support Professional, take a minute and thank them for the important work they do. KENNETH R. STALL CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COARC

Chatham football looking to make noise in Class D By Tim Martin Columbia-Greene Media
CHATHAM — The Chatham football team will be playing in a new division when it opens its 2019 season at home on Friday against Cohoes. After playing for the Section II Class C championship last November, the Panthers will be making the move to Class D this year. Despite the change, expectations remain the same for Coach Rich Sitzer’s squad.
“I think we can be successful in the Ds,” Sitzer said. “If we stay healthy and keep focused and I think we’ll be alright. I certainly think we’re capable of getting to the championship and winning our first Super Bowl title. “That’s the kids’ goal and the coaches. If we do get past that, it’s three games to get to Syracuse and the Dome and that’s what the guys really See FOOTBALL B6

When he walks onto the field at AT&T Stadium on Sunday to face the Cowboys, Eli Manning will become the first player in Giants history to begin his 16th NFL season, an ironman streak that will break a tie with the legendary Michael Strahan, Phil Simms and Mel Hein.

knows how this thing will pan out. But I think we can all agree that the 38-year-old quarterback’s remarkable staying power is something to behold.

Yankees could face some tough calls as regulars return Tyler Kepner The New York Times News Service
No body part was safe for the 2014 Texas Rangers. After five winning seasons in a row — including three trips to the playoffs and two American League pennants — those Rangers crumbled under a heap of injuries. There was Prince Fielder’s neck and Yu Darvish’s elbow, Mitch Moreland’s foot and ShinSoo Choo’s ankle, Jurickson Profar’s shoulder, Matt Harrison’s back, Geovany Soto’s knee and more. The 2014 Rangers used 64 players — still a major league record — and lost 95 games. It was “a disaster of a year,” as general manager Jon Daniels called it, waiting out the start of a rain-delayed game at Yankee Stadium on Monday, and it underscores just how remarkable this New York Yankees season has been. Their opening day first baseman, shortstop and third baseman are long gone. Their No. 1 starter and a four-time All-Star reliever have not pitched all season. The Yankees have used the disabled list 37 times for 29 players. Yet on Sunday they became the first team in the majors to reach 90 victories, and arrived at Labor Day with the best record in the sport (90-48). “It’s an organizational talent, an organizational skill,” Daniels said Monday, before Mike Minor and the Rangers thwarted the Yankees, 7-0, for the Yankees’ first shutout loss in 221

games. “It’s not considered lucky when you do it consistently. There’s obviously a process in what they’re looking for and how they train
their players. Is there a luck component to it? Of course. But Cash and these guys have done a great job with that over time.”
Brian Cashman, the Yankees’ general manager, inherited a five-year streak of winning records before the 1998 season and has presided over 22 more. High payrolls make a big difference, of course. But the players who have saved this Yankees season — Domingo German, Gio Urshela, Mike Tauchman, Mike Ford and so on — came cheap. The Yankees have flipped the meaning of the theoretical “replacement player” used in modern statistical evaluations. In theory, a readily available player summoned to take over for a regular should provide neutral value — a simple placeholder. The Yankees’ replacements have added value. That takes scouting and development savvy. “It’s easy to kind of just go, ‘Oh man, poor us,’ or make an excuse,” said Texas manager Chris Woodward, who coached for the Los Angeles Dodgers in the past two World Series. “I thought in L.A. we did a good job — whoever stepped in there, it was, ‘No, no, you’re going to be the guy.’ We supported all the guys that came up and expected them to do well, and I think they felt that. So it reminds me of that in a lot of ways — it doesn’t matter who it is, we’re going to win games. It says a lot about the culture.” That relentless, unyielding mentality has See YANKEES B6

Rafael Nadal shows his resiliency in victory over Marin Cilic at US Open Helene Elliott Los Angeles Times
NEW YORK — Give Rafael Nadal the slightest opening and he will find a way to win. Give him no opening and he will still find a way to win. Nadal, the No. 2 seed at the U.S. Open, lost the opening set of his fourth-round match against Marin Cilic but decisively reversed course to move within two points of closing it out. Cilic came to the net and hit a volley that seemed beyond Nadal’s reach, but the 33-yearold Spaniard thought otherwise. Sprinting to his left, he got to the ball and flicked it around the net post for a winner, triggering roars from a crowd that included an elated Tiger Woods. A point later, Nadal sealed a 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, 6-2 victory and a place in the 40th career Grand Slam event quarterfinal of his career. “I saw it. I ran fast to that ball,” he said. “I see at the last moment that there might have been the smallest space from that side. I think it was the only way to win that point.” Nadal had more aces than big-hitting Cilic, 11-10, and hit 38 winners while Cilic committed 40 unforced errors. “I really enjoyed playing in front of the full crowd,” he said. “Arthur Ashe Stadium here in New York, night session. It’s difficult to be better.”
LITTLE GUY, BIG WIN At 5-foot-7 in a world full

of giants, Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman usually wins fans’ sympathy. “They see the small one and the big one, they are going with the small one,” he said. He conceded height to 6-foot-6 Alexander Zverev of Germany but 20th-seeded Schwartzman prevailed 3-6, 6-2, 6-4, 6-3. No. 6 seed Zverev sabotaged himself with 17 double faults and 65 unforced errors, but Schwartzman was relentless in returning nearly everything. “I have the
confidence to beat many guys when the match is going many hours on court,” Schwartzman said. His quarterfinal opponent will be Nadal, who called him, “one of the most talented players on our tour. ... He is going to be a Grand Slam champion soon, I think.” No. 13 seed Gael Monfils of France got to the quarterfinals by breezing past Pablo Andujar of Spain 6-1, 6-2, 6-2. He will face No. 24 seed Matteo Berrettini of
Italy, who ousted Andrey Rublev of Russia 6-1, 6-4, 7-6 (6). Berrettini, 23, has long admired Monfils. “He’s unbelievable. He’s an athlete. First he’s an athlete and then he’s a tennis player,” Berrettini said. “The way he moves on the court, the way he jumps is something crazy.”
MCCOCO ELIMINATED The unseeded American doubles team of 15-year-old Coco Gauff and 17-year-old
Caty McNally, nicknamed “McCoco,” was eliminated by Victoria Azarenka and Ashleigh Barty 6-0, 6-1. Gauff and McNally, who won the junior U.S. Open doubles title last year, were at a disadvantage in terms of experience. Azarenka is a two-time Grand Slam event singles winner and three-time Grand Slam event doubles runner-up. Barty, this year’s French Open singles champion, won the doubles title here last year with CoCo Vandeweghe. “They’re both great singles players, very accomplished. I think they just played really well tonight,” McNally said. “They brought more energy. I think we needed more energy out there.” Both teenagers made their presence known here. McNally won her first-round match and the first set against Serena Williams before Williams came back for a three-set win, and Gauff reached the third round before she lost to world No. 1 Naomi Osaka. “I think I just kind of proved to myself that I can play at this level with the highest players. Taking a set off Serena, that was unbelievable. It just shows that I’m right there,” McNally said. Said Gauff: “For me, for singles, I think the tournament was good. I learned a lot. Got to play on the biggest court in tennis. Obviously, this is my first main draw in the U.S. Open. I thought it was a good experience.”
Women are ‘proving a point’: A variety of styles can win Christopher Clarey The New York Times News Service
NEW YORK — These are boom times in women’s tennis, with multiple generations colliding. The greatest player of the 21st century — Serena Williams — is still a major factor at age 37. New stars in their teens like 19-year-old Bianca Andreescu, 17-year-old Amanda Anisimova and 15-year-old Coco Gauff have emerged to challenge the likes of Naomi Osaka, Ashleigh Barty and Simona Halep. But the first week of the U.S. Open also has underscored another delightful development: a resurgence of stylistic variety. Taylor Townsend, an extroverted American qualifier, is the extreme example. She has seemingly revived the serve-and-volley style in the women’s game all on her own by reaching the fourth round. She befuddled Halep in a second-round upset by charging forward repeatedly and knocking off acrobatic winners at the net. As compelling a story as Gauff was in her run to the third round, Townsend, who was defeated by Andreescu, 6-1, 4-6, 6-2 on Monday night in Arthur Ashe Stadium, became the most irresistible story inside the game. “I mean Rafa just said, ‘Well done,’ I mean like, jeez,” Townsend said of Rafael Nadal on Thursday. She added, “It’s amazing to see that the tennis community, quote-unquote, is watching and embracing and appreciating something that’s not the norm.” Serve-and-volley, as Halep’s frustration made clear, can destabilize the opposition at this stage by forcing players out of established patterns and comfort zones. But serve-and-volley is also a crowd pleaser — because of the novelty effect and because it creates a contrast in styles. That contrast was once the rule in the men’s game and common in the women’s game when net rushers like Pam Shriver and nine-time Wimbledon singles champion Martina Navratilova were dueling against baseliners like Chris Evert and Tracy Austin. Playing styles have become more similar and baseline-focused since then. The trend is linked to the homogenization of surface speeds and the arrival of polyester string in the

late 1990s, which allows players to take bigger cuts from more extreme positions and produce the kind of huge power and dipping passing shots that can make controlling a volley a much tougher proposition. The move toward surface homogenization was not without foundation: Tournament directors concluded that their paying publics preferred extended rallies to a men’s game dominated by big servers and staccato exchanges. Balls got heavier; courts got grittier. Even the grass was altered: see Wimbledon, where serve-and-volley once ruled but is now nearly extinct. But some understandably feel the pendulum has swung too far, and the women’s game never had a widespread big-server problem in the first place. The all-court renaissance is not based on serving and volleying which remains the most specialized of tactics, but on using more of the tools in the traditional tennis toolbox: pace and trajectory changes; crisp slice off the backhand and even the forehand; and regular forays to the net. Two of the best examples are Barty and Andreescu, but Belinda Bencic, who knocked Osaka out of the U.S. Open on Monday, is an all-court player of a different sort. Flat-hitting is her signature, but she also knows how to
create opportunities all over the court and capitalize on them: she won all 10 of her points at net against Osaka, picking her moments to attack very smartly. Torben Belz, who coaches Donna Vekic, Bencic’s next opponent, said one of his goals was to get Vekic to come to net more often. “We will be practicing it a lot and coming in more,” he said. “But I still think it’s about power from the baseline and big, heavy groundstrokes and not coming in too much.” Punching or counterpunching power remains essential. Barty and Andreescu, who will face Elise Mertens in the quarterfinals, have the big forehands and strong serves to hit winners on their own (Andreescu also has a deadly crosscourt backhand). But they have the court-coverage skills to absorb pace along with tactical and technical variety. It is quite a package. “Players like Osaka are going to be forced to add more variety to their game,” said Sven Groeneveld, one of the game’s most experienced coaches, who worked with Maria Sharapova and most recently Sloane Stephens. Barty, the Australian who won the French Open this year and will return to No. 1 on Monday, has perhaps the best volleying technique on tour
along with a crisply sliced backhand. Andreescu, the Canadian who won hardcourt titles in Indian Wells and Toronto this year, is also happy to express herself on all sections of the canvas. She is a potential No. 1 herself if she can avoid the types of injuries that have slowed her progress so far. “Look, I’m not sure we can say yet that there is a change in women’s tennis,” Sylvain Bruneau, Andreescu’s coach, said in an interview Sunday. “I think it would be nice, but it might be a bit early to call it a big trend. But as far as Bianca is concerned, there is definitely a desire on her side to play tennis in a way where she’s using different tools, different strategies and keeping things versatile and mixing things up. It’s how she likes to play tennis and how we train, and it’s possible that it will influence others to do so. But let’s wait and see.” The wait may not be long. Consider the tactics deployed by the 17-yearold American Caty McNally when she pushed Williams to three sets in the second round on Ashe Stadium. She served and volleyed on only a few occasions, but she also hit flat returns off Williams’ second serves that she followed to net. Her results were mixed, and she lost the final two sets in a hurry. But it was revealing that she felt confident enough to deploy her attacking skills on that grand a stage against a champion of Williams’ stature. “My mom played a lot of doubles in her career, and I’ve worked on volleying ever since I was really young,” said McNally, whose mother, Lynn, played at Northwestern and briefly on the WTA Tour. “I think that’s something that other people don’t do. They just kind of are more baseline-oriented, and for me, I’m always working on my volleys every single day.” Townsend, 23, does the same, which helps explain her outstanding touch at the net. While McNally has long been a huge fan of all-court threat Roger Federer, Townsend took her cue from the attack-minded, emotionally expressive Navratilova. “I just loved how she was on the court, her energy, what she brought to the equation,” Townsend said. “She made it so interesting to watch tennis. It was more than just hitting a ball. It was emotion. It was passion.”

Bears’ Mack can’t wait for the Packers to get to town Dan Wiederer Chicago Tribune
BOB DECHIARA/USA TODAY
New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur talks with quarterback Daniel Jones (8) during a preseason game against the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium.
Film Study: Early assessment of QBs Murray, Jones David DeChant Field Level Media
It’s dangerous to draw sweeping conclusions from the preseason. The field is littered with backups, and most teams do zero game-planning. Many even call plays against poor looks on purpose, just to see how players respond. That said, we can glean tidbits from how players execute in given circumstances. With those caveats in mind, we dissected every preseason snap from the top four quarterbacks drafted in April. Kyler Murray – First overall, Arizona Cardinals After his second game, Murray was shown on HBO’s Hard Knocks asking Oakland Raiders wideout Antonio Brown, “Why they bringing the house on me, bro?” “That’s what people gonna do to you,” Brown responded. “You gotta get used to that cause you so fast.” Brown is right: Murray will be blitzed early and often – though not necessarily because he’s fast. Defensive coordinators will try to speed Murray up mentally so he becomes erratic physically. Pressure – perceived or real – often forces him to drop his eyes or trigger “escape mode” too early. More importantly, Kliff Kingsbury’s scheme features wide O-line splits and limited protection calls, making blitzes lethal. That was an issue against the Raiders and Vikings, who also exploited the splits by stunting D-linemen regularly. If Kingsbury maintains wide splits against Aaron Donald and others, Murray could be running for his life all season. The best antidotes are quick, defined throws that Kingsbury’s designs provide. Murray has been sharp there, flaunting his whip of an arm and deadly accuracy on perimeter strikes in Minnesota, including a pair converting third-and-7s. Murray also showed mental progress mid-game against the Vikings. After failing to see a wide open corner route in the end zone against Cover-2 in the second quarter, he recognized the same coverage a drive later and attacked the corner void (called a “holeshot”) with a bullet. Murray has shown both his tantalizing talent and some concerns from college. We’ll learn a lot more once Kingsbury’s scheme is unveiled this week. Daniel Jones – Sixth overall, New York Giants Derided as a major reach, Jones was so sharp during preseason that coach Pat Shurmur is already gloating to the QB’s doubters. The numbers (29 of 34, 416 yards, two TDs) were terrific,
and the film mostly matched. Jones showed excellent mechanics, diligence with presnap reads and eye discipline at Duke, all of which have translated. While rarely working deep into progressions, he executed Shurmur’s staples – rub routes, flood concepts, deep play-action designs – very well. Perhaps most encouraging is Jones’ accuracy, which was good but not stellar at Duke. He has often hit open receivers with perfect ball placement, maximizing yards after the catch. That said, receivers bailed Jones out despite poor placement occasionally, most notably on two deep shots against the Bengals. Jones showed pocket toughness in spades in college, but he hasn’t needed it much so far. He played five of his 11 series behind the Giants’ starting O-line against primarily backups (and was still strip-sacked twice). Giving Jones extra support early was smart, but he’ll face more pressure when games count. One minor trend to watch: At Duke, Jones was sharper with mechanics and accuracy in games played on turf compared to on grass. All four preseason games were on turf, but the Giants do play five games on grass this season. Dwayne Haskins – 15th overall, Washington Redskins It should be no surprise the inexperienced Haskins, learning a complex scheme, lost the starting job to Case Keenum, but he’ll claim it before long. Haskins has had plenty of rookie mistakes, most notably inaccuracy stemming from lazy footwork. Often sharp despite poor feet at Ohio State, he missed too many easy throws during the preseason while stepping in the bucket or not following through. That included his first interception against the Browns, when he way underthrew a wheel route with static feet. The pick was also the product of a predetermined read, as Haskins failed to see that the linebacker avoided the rub route and was reading him (not the receiver), and threw it anyway. Those sorts of mistakes make head coaches lose trust. But Haskins has also shown his tremendous ceiling, highlighted by his touchdown against the Bengals. After his hard count revealed the safeties’ rotation, he changed the protection to account for a blitz. The line failed to pick it up cleanly, but Haskins threw a gorgeous post for a 55-yard score while getting hit. Even more impressive, the post was not the primary route – Haskins recognized the safety sitting low in the Bengals’ Cover-4 and took advantage.
CHICAGO — It has been seven months, three weeks and six days since Khalil Mack last hit an opponent in an NFL game. Which would explain why Mack leaned his head back Monday afternoon, smiled widely and, in his chill but emphatic way, offered this proclamation. “So. (Bleeping). Ready,” Mack said. You’re welcome, NFL marketing team. There’s the latest bold-lettered caption to add to the movie poster for Thursday night’s blockbuster between the Bears and Packers at Soldier Field. The Bears are a team with legitimate Super Bowl hopes. An elite defense remains their driving force. And it’s Mack who is the engine of that defense. Now, after the grind of training camp and an August in which he didn’t get even a small taste of game action, Mack is itching to get going. So. (Bleeping). Ready. Just to be exact. “It’s been so long, I feel like,” Mack said. “I’m looking forward to going out there Thursday and getting to the grind with my brothers.” Oh, and lest we forget that Thursday night’s feature will be a sequel after the Bears and Packers opened the 2018 season on a prime-time stage at Lambeau Field. You remember that night, right Khalil? That breathtaking first half in which you had a strip-sack of DeShone Kizer followed one possession later by an interception return for a touchdown? All that barely a week after joining the team? “The only thing I can remember now is that we didn’t win the game,” Mack said. “You know what I mean? Ultimately, you do those things to be in position to win the game. And that’s all I can think about from that game every time I look at the highlights. You still want to win the game.” Fair enough. The Bears did indeed lose that night, a heartbreaking 24-23 setback after Aaron Rodgers authored an unforgettable Packers comeback. But others at Halas Hall still recall the energy jolt they got with Mack playing his first game in a Bears uniform and making his presence felt immediately. “I just said, ‘Holy hell!’” coach Matt Nagy recalled Monday. “I did. I couldn’t believe it. I know he was working out, but we didn’t know (what he’d bring the first game). ... It was surreal. That’s a half that I’ll never forget.” Bears defensive end Roy Robertson-Harris was the one at Kizer’s ankles when the Packers backup quarterback rushed a screen pass that Mack darted in front of and took 27 yards to the end zone. Robertson-Harris put Kizer on his back, then popped up to celebrate. “I thought it was an incomplete pass,” Robertson-Harris said. “Then I looked up at

the Jumbotron and saw Mack running with the ball. ... So I jumped up to block somebody. That was fun. Seeing guys fly around and make plays is always fun.” Bears receiver Taylor Gabriel had started the night with plenty of curiosity about what Mack’s arrival might do. “I was like everybody else,” Gabriel said. “I wanted to see what he could do and how big he was.” And after Mack scored his touchdown, Gabriel felt a major adrenaline rush. “He came back to the sideline and was like, ‘This is what you guys wanted, right?’” Gabriel said. “I was like, ‘Yeah. That’s exactly what we wanted.’” Those Michael Bay-like explosives will be hard for Mack to replicate Thursday night. And with his “Don’t talk about it, be about it” approach, it wasn’t a surprise that the
All-Pro edge rusher steered around making any bold statements about how good the Bears defense can be this season. “We could talk about it all day,” Mack said. “You know what I mean? But until we go out and show you guys ... That’s my whole thought process in this whole thing — the whole offseason, missing the whole preseason — is to go out and show why we do what we do and why we are who we are.” Mack loves that an established defense remains hungry. “It’s all the little things, man,” he said. “You see all the small communication things and just guys knowing each other better and knowing how to respond off of what we do and knowing how to respond when things are moving a little too slow. “You can tell. You can get that feeling. It’s new in those
different ways. At the same time, it’s still the same old guys.” The same old guys with the same old united and driven mindset. “We’re about camaraderie, man,” Mack said. “Just playing for each other. There’s no selfish guy in the room, in this whole building. You can feel it when you’re in the huddle. You can feel it when you’re playing. Everybody’s playing for each other. That’s ultimately what this game is all about.” Mack can also feel his anticipation building for Thursday night. It’s time. The sting of last season’s playoff loss, the pent-up energy from the preseason, the excitement for opening night and the season ahead. It’s all pumping through his veins. “I can’t wait to go out and take this out on somebody else.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL NOTEBOOK:
South Carolina turns to freshman QB Field Level Media
South Carolina senior quarterback Jake Bentley is out with a reported foot injury, setting up true freshman Ryan Hilinski to start this week. Bentley appeared to suffer the injury on a gameending sack as the Gamecocks fell 24-20 to North Carolina on Saturday. He has been South Carolina’s starter since midway through the 2016 season, having passed for 7,527 yards and 55 touchdowns. Hilinski, from Orange, Calif., was rated the No. 2 pro-style quarterback recruit in the nation in the 247Sports composite. He won the backup job in fall camp. He is the younger brother of Tyler Hilinski, the former Washington State quarterback who committed suicide last January at age 21. “Ryan is extremely bright, extremely intelligent,” coach Will Muschamp told reporters Sunday. “He works hard at it, as far as the film work and different things are concerned. ... He’s prepared himself the right way the entire time, so I’ve been very pleased with that.” –Northwestern quarterback TJ Green could miss the season after a foot injury in the season opener against Stanford. Green, a senior, was injured with 11:30 remaining in the third quarter on Saturday when he was sacked by two Stanford defenders. Coach Pat Fitzgerald said after the game the injury would require surgery. The son of former NFL quarterback Trent Green was 6-of-10 passing for 62 yards. –NC State wide receiver C.J. Riley will miss the rest of the 2019 season with a torn left ACL. Riley suffered the injury on the punt coverage
team in the first quarter of the Wolfpack’s 34-6 victory over East Carolina on Saturday. Riley started the game at wide receiver but did not make a catch before the injury. A redshirt junior, Riley tore the ACL in his right knee during the summer of 2016. He had 28 catches for 315 yards and two touchdowns as a sophomore. –Marshall linebacker Jaquan Yulee underwent surgery for a broken neck suffered in the Thundering Herds’ 56-17 victory over VMI. The surgery was successful, his father, Fred Yulee, reported on social media. Yulee was injured while defending a pass in the first quarter of Saturday’s contest. He was motionless on the field after the collusion with VMI wide receiver Jakob Harris. After several minutes, he was taken off the field on a stretcher and waved to the crowd. –Georgia head coach Kirby Smart announced that wide receiver Kearis Jackson will miss three to four weeks after the redshirt freshman came away with “a couple different breaks” in his hand and wrist area during Saturday’s season-opening win at Vanderbilt. Making his first career start, Jackson had two catches for 31 yards in the 30-6 win, with the injury occurring after the second catch. With little more than 10 minutes to play, Jackson caught a 32-yard pass at the Commodores’ 5-yard line, but took a hard hit to his right hand and fumbled. Junior Demetris Robertson and freshman Dominick Blaylock also played in the slot Saturday and are expected to get more chances in Jackson’s absence.

Tigers minor-leaguer dies at 27 Field Level Media
Detroit Tigers minor league catcher Chace Numata died Monday from head injuries sustained Friday in a skateboarding accident in Erie, Pa. He was 27. Numata was playing for Double-A Erie SeaWolves. A 14th-round pick of the Philadelphia Phillies in 2010, Numata was in that franchise’s system until 2017. He was a minor-leaguer with the New York Yankees last season before signing with Detroit in November. Numata was hitting .239 in 71 games at Erie this year, and also batted .300 in six games at Triple-A Toledo. “Though this was his first year with our organization, Chace was beloved by many from our major league club through all levels of our player development system,” the Tigers said in a statement. “He had an engaging personality that quickly established him as a leader on and off the field, and his presence will be forever remembered in our organization and beyond. –The Los Angeles Dodgers promoted top prospect Gavin Lux and put him in the starting lineup against the Colorado Rockies batting eighth and playing second base. He singled in the second inning on the first pitch he saw in the major leagues. Lux, 21, was the 20th overall selection in the 2016 draft. The left-handed hitter and middle infielder began the season at Double-A Tulsa, where he hit .313 with 13 home runs in 64

games. At Triple-A Oklahoma City, he batted .392 with 13 home runs and 18 doubles in 49 games. Los Angeles also reinstated left-handed pitcher Julio Urias from the restricted list and recalled right-handed pitcher Josh Sborz from Oklahoma City. –Outfielder and consensus top-15 prospect Kyle Tucker leads a group of three players promoted to the Houston Astros. Tucker, 22, appeared in 28 games last season with Houston but had spent the entire 2019 season in the minors. In 125 games with Triple-A Round Rock, Tucker produced a .266 batting average and a .354
on-base percentage with 34 homers and 97 RBIs. Houston also called up catcher Garrett Stubbs and lefthander Cionel Perez. Stubbs, 26, made his major league debut earlier this season and played in nine games. Perez, 23, primarily has been a starter in the minors, but he has pitched in relief in 11 appearances in the majors. –The Baltimore Orioles activated designated hitter Mark Trumbo from the 60-day injured list, and he made his season debut with a double in four at-bats against the Tampa Bay Rays. Trumbo, 33, had not played
in a major league game since Aug. 19, 2018, because of a right knee injury. The two-time All Star is a career .250 hitter with 218 homers and 626 RBIs. In his abbreviated 2018 season, Trumbo hit .261 with 17 home runs. To make room for Trumbo on the 40-man roster, pitcher Tom Eshelman was designated for assignment. –The Toronto Blue Jays activated left-hander Clayton Richard following his second long sting on the injured list this season. Richard missed eight weeks at the beginning of the year with a stress reaction in his right knee before missing the past seven weeks with a left lat strain. In 10 games this season, Richard is 1-5 with a 5.96 ERA and 22 strikeouts in 45 1/3 innings. The Blue Jays also recalled lefty Thomas Pannone from Triple-A Buffalo. The 25-yearold is 3-5 with a 6.44 ERA in 30 games (six starts) for Toronto this season. –Nationals right fielder Adam Eaton left Washington’s game after two innings, and he is set to undergo an MRI on his right knee. Eaton, who was walking with a visible limp after the Nationals’ 7-3 loss to the New York Mets, was starting for the first time since he was hit by a pitch Wednesday and came away with a bruised right knee. Nationals manager Dave Martinez told reporters after Monday’s game that the injury actually could be a hamstring issue.
USA Basketball gets a big scare from Turkey at World Cup Ben Golliver The Washington Post
The free throw line proved to be the difference between sweet relief and deep embarrassment. Team USA escaped Turkey, 93-92, in overtime of a FIBA World Cup group play game on Tuesday, barely keeping alive a 13-year undefeated streak at major international tournaments. Despite a frantic endgame that again raised doubts about Team USA’s ability in clutch situations, the Americans survived in front of a pro-Turkey crowd in Shanghai by cashing in at the line.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton delivered two game-clinching free throws with 2.1 seconds remaining in overtime. The extra period was made possible by Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum, who hit two of his three free throws after being fouled on a three-point attempt with 0.1 seconds remaining in regulation. Turkey, meanwhile, saw its valiant upset bid die at the stripe. Holding a 92-91 lead with less than 20 seconds left in overtime, Cedi Osman and Dogus Balbay combined to miss four straight free throws to set up Middleton’s heroics. Much like during its recent exhibition loss to Australia, Team USA played
scattered basketball down the stretch. Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker made a pair of crucial baskets in overtime, but an offensive goaltending call on Donovan Mitchell, an unsportsmanlike foul call on Joe Harris and a turnover by Myles Turner combined to push Team USA to the brink. Turkey, ranked 17th in the FIBA World Rankings, was regarded as Team USA’s toughest competition in the first round of the tournament thanks to NBA talents including Ersan Ilyasova, Osman, Furkan Forkmaz and Semih Erden. Ilyasova led Turkey with a game-high 23 points, including a tip-in with 12.3 seconds left in regulation that could have been the game-winner.

solid linebacker, reads offenses very well. This is his first year starting on the varsity. Those two are very excited to get going on Friday night.” At defensive tackle, Sitzer plans to rotate as many as five players at the two spots. “That will help to keep our offensive line fresh,” Sitzer said. “I’ll be able to rotate bodies in there on the inside with guys that are fresh and hungry and want to get after the ball.” Sitzer admits it will take some time adjusting to playing in Class D. “The toughest part is not having any film on the teams we’ll be playing,” Sitzer said. “We’ll be going into some of these games blind. We’ll be going up against four or five teams that we’ve never even seen before. That will be the toughest part. We’ll be making adjustments on the fly, especially defensively.” Should the team play up to its potential and remain healthy, Sitzer sees no reason why the Panthers can’t make a deep run into the postseason. “I compare our team to Cambridge two years ago when they won the state title. We just feel that’s the type of team we are, like that Cambridge team and they won the state title. The guys don’t feel it’s some far off thing that we can make it to Syracuse and possibly go for a state title. They’ve seen the type of team it takes to be a state champion and they feel, hey, why not us?

want to do.” The Panthers scrimmaged against Greenwich, Cambridge/Salem and Holy Trinity on Saturday and Sitzer was pleased with what he saw. “The scrimmage went well, we stayed healthy,” Sitzer said. “We played well against Cambridge, which the guys were fired up for. We had some guys in some different spots and was able to check out some guys in different positions. Overall, it went very well. I was very happy with the way the guys performed.” It all starts up front for the Panthers with a a solid core of offensive line returning from last year’s 9-1 team “We’re excited,” Sitzer said. “I think we’re going to have a pretty big, athletic offensive line that is going to put our skill guys in postion to be successful.” Four returnees will anchor the offensive line, with Grayson Van Wie and Richie Kratt at the tackles and Sean King and Kyle Nehmans the guards. The only newcomer on the line will be freshman Anthony Schiffer. “We have two pulling guards in Sean King and Kyle Nehmans. Kyle is moving from center to guard and he’s a bowling ball. He’s quick, athletic and can get underneath guys. Those guys like to get downfield and block. Grayson Van Wie is a big, strong kid and Richie Kratt is very athletic, he’s got long arms and legs, we use him for his leverage. “Then we have the freshman at center who is 245 pounds, can squat a house and he’s been improving and after seeing film from the scrimmage, we’re impressed with all of those guys, their footwork and just where we’re at at this point of the season. The communication, the blocking schemes, coach (Shawn) Caldwell and coach (Jim) Spock have done a real good job working with those guys and getting them ready. Still some things we can tweak, but the offensive line is going to do a lot for us this year.” The Panthers will miss quarterback Kaleb Taylor, a Class C All-State honorable mention selection, but the position is in good hands with Casey Sitzer, who makes the switch from wide receiver. “Casey is still learning the quarterback position, audibles, looking at coverages and things like that,” Coach Sitzer said. “He’s been working hard with Mark Dwyer to get

time and compete at a high level. That’s to be admired.” Especially at the position Manning plays. “He’s been one of those guys who hasn’t missed games because of injury, especially at the quarterback position,” Shurmur said. “He’s been hit a lot. That’s a credit to him.” Were it not for the completely mishandled late-season benching late in the 2017 season, when Ben McAdoo’s inexplicable desire to see if Geno Smith had anything to offer moving forward,

ready for that.” Sitzer will have plenty of talent around him to help ease the transition to his new position. “We are loaded at the skill positions,” Sitzer said. “Quinten Kastner and Spencer Ford, Jacob Sorros and Thomas Van Tassel, Jayshawn Williams is back with us and he’s a difference maker as far as being athletic and getting him out in space. We’ve got some guys we can get the ball to, running ball and throwing the ball. We’re way ahead playbook-wise then we’ve been in the past. We’re going over stuff now that we went over week six of last year as far as getting some stuff in. So mentally we’re ahead of the game also.” Defensively, the Panthers are in good shape with several key returnees from a unit that posted four shutout a year ago. I run the defense and I put a lot on the kids,” Sitzer said. “I’m still making adjustments now after the scrimmage. I’m going to put Quinten Kastner back at corner. He was AllConference corner last year and with Spencer Ford on the other corner we’ve got two guys that we can put on just about anybody one-on-one. “What we’re going to see in class D it’s not going to be the pass threats

we see like Holy trinity and some of the other schools in Class C. We can play some man coverage and load the box and work on shutting down the run.” Sitzer is confident his two defensive ends, King and Van Tassel, will be two of the top performers at their position in Section II Class D this year. “They both played well in the scrimmage, shut down the edge,
collapsed the pocket and they’re both fast and strong. They both bring a special skillset to the position and will certainly be the cornerstones of the defense.” The Panthers linebacking crew is loaded with potential, led by Justin Geerholt and Jacob Sorros. “Justin is a senior and he’s hungry. He didn’t get a lot of playing time last year and he’s very excited to be on that starting squad and Jacob is a

and making the decisions very difficult.” Some players are not coming back, like opening day first baseman Greg Bird (torn plantar fascia), third baseman Miguel Andujar (torn labrum) and shortstop Troy Tulowitzki, who retired. Missing starter Luis Severino threw 96 mph in a 33-pitch rehab start Sunday — Boone compared it to a spring training debut — and reliever Dellin Betances will throw in the bullpen Tuesday. The Yankees still hope Severino and Betances can help in October, along with some combination of others on the disabled list: Urshela, Giancarlo Stanton, Edwin Encarnacion, Aaron Hicks and
CC Sabathia. Left fielder Clint Frazier, who has started both games since his return from Class AAA purgatory, threw out a runner at the plate in Monday’s defeat and also could be a factor. That inventory of useful talent will create its own set of challenges before long, Daniels said. “The guy that you’re now bringing back, when he became this kind of replacement star, there was no risk involved with it, right?” Daniels said, recalling his decisions after 2014. “He was kind of the come-to-the-rescue guy. But now do you double down and invest in him knowing that the guy he replaced is coming
back? Do you trade one of them? What’s your confidence level that his surgery or rehab is going to go as it’s supposed to? I remember that was a big piece of it.” The Rangers made the moves they needed to win the AL West in each of the next two seasons after their injuryscarred 2014. The Yankees can put off their near-term decisions as they charge toward their first division title in seven years, but that is only one pursuit. The race for the majors’ best record also commands their attention. The Yankees need to finish a game better than the Houston Astros to secure the top AL spot, because
Houston won the season series between the clubs. When the Astros beat the Yankees in the 2017 AL Championship Series, the home team won all seven games. Both teams have been dominant at home this season: the Yankees are 51-22 after their loss Monday, and the Astros are 51-17. “I pay attention to it,” Boone said. “It does matter. Look, obviously we want to try and win the East, first and foremost, but then that carrot of having the best record matters. To potentially have home-field advantage matters. “We’re very good playing at home, and hopefully we will secure that. So I pay attention to it, but it doesn’t change
anything as far as how we go about our day to day. We’re trying to be our best over this final month to put us in a really good position.” Then again, the way this Yankees season has gone, conventional factors like roster makeup and home games might not even matter. Who would be surprised if Urshela or Ford became this generation’s Brian Doyle or Luis Sojo — role players who came up big for the Yankees in World Series clinchers on the road? The outcome will reveal itself soon. For now, there are 23 games remaining to set the roster and the schedule while appreciating an extraordinary season.
Manning’s consecutive starts streak would have reached 231 with Sunday’s game. Manning never would have beaten Brett Favre’s streak of 297 straight starts, but he had the longest active starting streak when McAdoo ended it at 210 games. “I have respect for that, and my respect for him is because I get a chance to work with him behind the scenes, and I can see why he’s played for so long,” Shurmur said. “It’s because of the way he trains, the way he thinks about the game, how smart he is. It reaffirms in my mind that if you do things for the right reasons, train the right way and you’re fortunate injury-wise and you have a lot of talent, you can be around
for a while.” Subscribe to Sports Now newsletter Email address Sign upBy clicking Sign up, you agree to our privacy policy. Shurmur will now have a direct bearing on how much longer Manning is around. The second-year coach must assess whether Manning’s play is good enough to continue as the starter, or whether it’s time to turn to Jones. Manning was used sparingly during the preseason, as Shurmur wanted to make sure he didn’t have any unnecessary wear during games that don’t count. And with Saquon Barkley and No. 1 receiver Sterling Shepard not playing at all, it
could be an uncertain beginning once they all get together on Sunday. “Whether you have guys playing in the preseason (or not), it’s a little different in the regular season, so we’ll get adjusted quickly,” Shepard said. “It’s been looking good at practice, so I feel like what you do at practice translates well to the field if you’re doing things the right way.” Manning has worked on his arm strength in the offseason and believes it will be a benefit once the games start. He also has the benefit of an improved offensive line that now includes right guard Kevin Zeitler, acquired in a trade with the Browns, and right tackle Mike Remmers, a
former Panthers starter. But it remains to be seen how long it will be before Shurmur makes the transition to Jones. Team owner and president John Mara hopes that move doesn’t come for the entire season, but Shurmur’s patience will be tried if Manning’s offense gets off to a slow start. It will be especially problematic for Shurmur to give Manning the benefit of time because Jones did so well during the preseason, going 29of 34 for 416 yards, two touchdown passes and no interceptions. But Shurmur expects that Manning will be a better player in the second year of the coach’s offense. “I think everybody in our
building will be improve from a year ago, and that would include (Manning),” Shurmur said. Manning told me earlier in the preseason he feels as good now as he’s felt in years, so it certainly wouldn’t come as a surprise to him if he continues to hold off Father Time. Only demonstrable evidence that he deserves to keep playing, especially with Jones on the roster, will maintain his place in the starting lineup. But his place in team history will be assured. No one to ever put on a Giants’ jersey has played longer. And there’s something to be said for that, regardless of how one more season – perhaps his final season – plays out.

Late-night surprise damages relationship My 20-year-old daughter recently caught me “actively engaged” in watching porn. I tried to do it late at night when I thought everyone was asleep. My daughter now thinks I’m a pervert. Her mother raised her with DEAR ABBY conservative beliefs about any expression of sexuality. I’m worried about her ability to make a future marriage work, and I want the wonderful relationship we shared back. Some people have suggested that as she matures and becomes more aware of the real world, she’ll come around. But I’m a relatively old 58 to have a child her age, and I don’t want to wait until I’m gone for her to “come around.” What can I do? Missing My Baby Girl
JEANNE PHILLIPS
Your baby girl isn’t a baby; she’s a young adult woman. Most individuals are uncomfortable with the idea of their parents as sexual beings despite the glaring evidence to the contrary. Do not broach the subject of what her marriage may be like if and when she marries, because it’s really her affair, not yours. Apologize and use this as an opportunity to be more careful in the future. Recently, a good friend invited me along on a six-night trip to Waikiki. We shared the same hotel room. He slept in the king-size bed; I slept on the pull-out sofa in the living room area. I ended up getting bed bugs and figured out where I got them from when I got back to my apartment in Los Angeles. When I told my friend what happened, he immediately said he didn’t want to be involved or be a part of this. Then he began emailing and texting me
saying that if I filed a claim, he would be banned by the hotel chain and lose his gold member points. Then he asked how I knew I didn’t get them from a movie theater or maybe the airplane or even a well-known coffee chain I go to. Now he won’t return my phone calls, emails or text messages. I am shocked and feel hurt and confused. Bitten In California I understand why you are shocked and hurt, but please don’t be confused. Your former good friend values his gold membership status more than he does your friendship. While he isn’t wrong that you could have picked up the bedbugs on the plane or in a movie theater, if he was a true friend, he wouldn’t be ghosting you now. Call the hotel and explain what happened. Give them the room number so they can investigate and possibly prevent another guest from having the same experience you did. I am 70 years old. Because of a combination of good luck, good genes and years of exercising and eating right, I look OK for my age. Many of my friends have not been so fortunate and haven’t aged well. When I see someone that I haven’t seen in a long time, often they will say, “You look great.” Can you please give me a good reply? “You look great, too” seems inappropriate. Please help.

Any change in vaginal symptoms after years is probably worth a discussion with your TO YOUR doctor. Certainly, this one is. GOOD HEALTH In most post-menopausal women, a new bloody or brown discharge would be a concern for an abnormality in the uterus, especially uterine cancer. However, you have had a hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus), so the most common causes in you would include infection and vaginal atrophy. A tear in the vaginal cuff (the scar in the deep vagina from where the uterus was removed) would be a more serious but less common event. All of these should be evaluated, ideally by the gynecologist who performed the hysterectomy. Waiting six months is too long.

Is there such a thing as irritable male syndrome, similar to PMS in women? If it is real, does it cycle yearly or monthly?

male animals with a strictly seasonal breeding pattern. After mating season in these animals, testosterone levels drop markedly, and the animals exhibited symptoms of nervousness and irrationality. In humans, low testosterone has a set of common symptoms, including low libido and low overall energy. Loss of body hair Hagar the Horrible and decreased muscle mass happen after prolonged time without testosterone. Psychiatric symptoms, such as depressed mood and anxiety, are less strongly tied to low testosterone levels. Most experts do not believe that the findings in animals are analogous to what healthy men experience. While it is possible that your husband has low testosterone, and that this level may be causing a degree of irritability, it is much more likely that his behavior has a different underlying cause than loss of testosterone. By contrast, premenstrual syndrome, where Zits there are dramatic shifts in hormones, is clearly associated with mood swings, irritability, anxiety and depression. As the hormone changes are cyclical, so the symptoms are cyclical as well. No such cycles exist in men for testosterone. I have certainly known many irritable males, however, and anybody can be more irritable one day compared with another. I would note that irritability and being easily angered can be a sign of depression, among many other possibilities.
Horoscope By Stella Wilder Born today, you know how to make the most not only of your own talents and the opportunities that will reveal themselves to you throughout your life, but also of the kinds of events and developments that others might call “negative” or “unfortunate.” You are so positive in your outlook that you are always capable of finding the silver lining in almost any cloud — and then you take that lining and embellish it in such a way that it unlocks its secrets and rewards and bestows them upon you generously, almost whenever you wish. People are likely to fall in love with you again and again — and often over and over — throughout your lifetime. This is not something you must ever take for granted, for the moment you assume that you are loved, that love may well be withdrawn, leaving you high and dry and more alone than one person should have to endure. Also born on this date are: Beyonce, singer; Wes Bentley, actor; Mitzi Gaynor, actress; Dick York, actor; Tom Watson, golfer; Ione Skye, actress; Damon Wayans, actor and comedian.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — You are sensing that the time is just right to promote a certain idea you’ve been developing for quite some time. You’ll get much support! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — The information you receive today from the usual sources isn’t likely to be as useful to you as you had hoped. You must look elsewhere. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You’re not feeling as fit and healthy as usual today. An “uneasy” feeling proves hard to shake, and you’ll want to find out where it came from. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You may have grown weary of hearing the same things from the same people. Today you’ll have a chance to identify a new circle of friends. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Things may prove difficult today despite recent efforts to smooth the way for yourself and others. You’ll navigate problems with style and skill. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You may not have to ask permission to do a certain thing today, but you may have to explain yourself more than once while you get it done. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You’ll want to do a little fact-checking today before acting on something you’re told by someone else. Things are not what they seem to be.
