After Tuesday, Castro said temperatures will look moderate in comparison to the arctic blast. “Temperatures could be back into the teens and 20s on Wednesday, which will feel like a heat wave, and then by Thursday they could be in the upper 20s to around 30 degrees,” he said. After that though, Castro said there’s potential for more snow, but that the system is “way out there.” Beyond next week, Castro said it looks like temperatures could be moderate.

“Also take your tire pressure because tire pressure goes down when it’s really cold like this.” O’Leary said drivers should also make sure they have antifreeze and jumper cables in the car because batteries lose energy faster in the winter. It’s also a good idea to have emergency kits in the car, he said, and to make sure basic items, like wiper blades, are in check. For those who do decide to travel during the harsh conditions, O’Leary recommends warming up the car for at least five minutes to get the oil flowing.

BOLINGBROOK – Old man winter seemed to be throwing everything he could at the Midwest this week, and after what seemed like endless snow, an arctic blast moved in Sunday threatening record lows in the Chicago area through Tuesday. As of noon Tuesday, the lowest temperature recorded in Bolingbrook since Sunday was minus 17, recorded at 8:05 a.m. Monday. That mark doesn’t quite reach the record low of minus 27 for the area set Jan. 20, 1985, according to the National Weather Service. The lowest recorded wind chill came at 9:51 a.m. Monday at minus 42. The cold also forced schools across the western suburbs to cancel classes Monday and Tuesday, including Valley View District 365U in Bolingbrook.

portant to be prepared for whatever lies ahead. One place to start before a winter storm or freeze is the hardware store. “I would keep flashlights, batteries and hand warmers,” said Bob Wing, floor manager at Buikema’s Ace Hardware, 1705 N. Main St., Wheaton. “The biggest thing is if the furnace goes out, you have to stay warm. So that’s the biggest key is just warming up.” Wing said it’s a good idea to have salt on hand, which ranges from about $10 to $25 depending on the size of the bag, and to have snow shovels.

Ask Dr. Webster

Q: It’s a New Year. What can I do for my dental health? A: You can keep at least one of your resolutions this year with nothing more complicated than making a phone all. The best thing you can do for your dental health is visit your dentist regularly. If it’s been a while since your last check up, resolve at this start of the year to call and make an appointment for a thorough examination and cleaning. It’s recommended that you visit a dentist twice a year. If you’ve gotten out of that routine, the time to call is now, when you’re in the mood to do something positive in your life. Regular visits to the dentist pay off in a variety of ways. For one thing, it’s just important to keep your mouth healthy. Secondly, the earlier you catch a dental problem, the easier—and less expensive—it will be to address it. It takes the eye of a professional to detect the telltale signs of the disease’s beginning. Since gum disease is the most common cause of tooth loss, it’s something you defiantly want to eliminate as soon as possible. A professional cleaning at the dentist’s office is another function you simply can’t do as well yourself, no matter how fastidious you’re with brushing and flossing. So call today and check one of the New Year’s resolutions off your list.

University of St. Francis College of Education Alum of the Year, Pioneer Elementary School ESL teacher Rita Guzman, works with Pioneer kindergartner Amay Mehta.

WSD • Wednesday, January 8, 2014 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life

BOLINGBROOK – Pioneer Elementary School English as a second language teacher Rita Guzman has been named Alum of the Year by the University of St. Francis College of Education. The honor is bestowed annually to a USF graduate who demonstrates strong service leadership both on the job and in the community. Guzman, who has been with Valley View School District 365U since the 2002-03 school year, holds three different degrees from USF including a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and Master’s degrees in both Educational Leadership and in Differentiated Instruction. She is currently pursuing her Doctorate in Educational Leadership at the Joliet-based higher education institution. A former first-grade bilingual teacher at both Tibbott and Skoff elementary schools, Guzman came to Pioneer in 2010 as an ESL specialist. She is a member of the VVSD Parent Resource Network team and the VVSD Academic

Committee, and has been at the forefront of VVSD Common Core State Standards curriculum development for ESL students. At Pioneer, she is a member of the school’s Universal Leadership Team, a mentor for new teachers and one of the organizers of the multi-cultural Fair. Guzman is one of only five teachers in Will County certified to work with both English language learners and special needs students. Named United Way of Will County Volunteer of the Year in 2008 for working with families in the Joliet Diocese, she currently volunteers her time preparing meals for the homeless at the Daybreak Shelter and organizing special events for Will County’s Sunnyhill Nursing Home. “We try to help out in the low income areas of the Joliet community as much as possible,” Guzman said. “I’m very fortunate to have had the opportunity to go to school. I do whatever I possibly can to support children and families who may not have that opportunity.”

James R Rakow Road

Two blocks north of Rakow on Pingree

By MARI GRIGALIUNAS

mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com WOODRIDGE – York High School junior Shaun Marshall lost his grandfather and caretaker, Jerry Rochford, just days before Christmas. But his neighbors Stacy and John Krueger wanted to assure him he still had plenty of people behind him. “When Jerry died last week, I didn’t know what was going to happen to Shaun,” said Stacy Krueger. Within a week she’d raised more than $10,000 toward a trust fund that 16-year-old Shaun will receive when he turns 18. What started as the effort of a concerned neighbor quickly spread into a community-wide effort to provide for a teen who has overcome more tragedy than most his age. “Despite all the tragedy, he’s going to have an opportunity for a bright future,” Krueger said. Shaun’s mother, Samantha, lost her battle with cancer when he was very young. For more than a decade, Shaun lived with his grandparents. Six years ago, his grandmother, Joanne Rochford, died after a fight with cancer. That made his grandfather, Jerry Rochford, Shaun’s sole caretaker. “I felt like they were just kind of adrift without Joanne,” Stacy Krueger said. Jerry Rochford, 59, died suddenly Dec. 20 after police found him unconscious in his car in the 100 block of North Michigan Avenue in Elmhurst. The DuPage County Coroner’s office is still investigating Rochford’s death. “We were actually the first family to be called,” said Jennifer Minkalis of Woodridge, whose family has taken in Shaun. Minkalis and her husband, Andrew, Joanne Rochford’s nephew, have three sons of their own – ages 5, 8 and 10. Even with their own boys to take care of, the Minkalises didn’t hesitate to welcome Shaun into their home. “As a family, we knew it was the right thing to do,”

How to donate To contribute to Shaun Marshall’s trust fund, visit www.gofundme. com/5vj220 Minkalis said. John Krueger remembers sitting in the backyard with Jerry Rochford frequently, and Stacy remembers him most as a great neighbor. No strangers to flooding during large storms, Stacy Krueger said Rochford was always the first neighbor to offer assistance. John Krueger said all Rochford ever wanted to do was take care of Shaun. John and Stacy Krueger wanted to continue their good-neighbor relationship after Rochford died and help take care of his grandson. “Really all we wanted was for Shaun to have some type of solid footing when he turns 18,” John Krueger said. Stacy Krueger said Shaun has a great group of friends as well, but wanted to give him a financial backing for college, trade school or car depending on what plans he makes when he graduates high school. Minkalis said they’ve only had the opportunity to talk briefly about Shaun’s future, but he’s thought about a future in carpentry and attending College of DuPage. “He really wants to make something of himself,” Minkalis said. In the meantime, Minkalis is excited to bring Shaun into her home. “This is the core value of family,” she said. Minkalis has been blown away by the support Shaun has received from his Elmhurst community and even strangers as the fundraiser has spread through social media. Stacy Krueger takes no credit for launching the campaign. To her, it just proves the nature of the Elmhurst community. “I didn’t do anything that any other person living next door wouldn’t have done,” she said.

SPRINGFIELD – During the decades I’ve covered government, I’ve seen a steady stream of people heading to Springfield wanting to have their profession licensed. And beginning Jan. 1, the state began licensing yet another – condominium managers. That vocation joins a litany of jobs such as hair braiders, interior decorators, barbers, auctioneers and others that are regulated by the state of Illinois. There are some who would VIEWS have you believe that governScott ment bureaucrats are like Reeder perched vultures waiting for some unsuspecting entrepreneur to come along before they swoop in. The reality is something a bit more interesting. Regulation often is the product of a chummy relationship between elected officials and those in business who want to cut down on their competition to maximize profits. So every year, a parade of folks in various vocations come to the state Capitol asking for their fields to be licensed and regulated. And it usually works like this: • Have the state require extensive training for those wanting to enter the field. • Exempt everyone already in the field from the new regulations by “grandfathering” them in. By doing this, folks in the profession can create an artificial shortage of “licensed” individuals. This reduces the supply of people who can do the job and enables those still in the field to be paid more. And the rest of us pay more for their services. Yes, there are some life-or-death professions such as physicians or dentists for which it makes sense to require a license. But frankly, I could care less if my barber has been OK’d by the state. If I’m not pleased with a haircut, I’ll go to someone else the next time. That’s how the free market regulates things. Or how about interior designers? What would constitute a gross license violation? Improper use of the word “mauve”? Shag carpeting in the basement rec room? Beaded doorway curtains? Macramé potholders? An interior decorator license benefits the public about as much as a two-dollar word like “feng shui.” Barriers such as these hurt lower-income people by creating obstacles for them to enter certain fields. It hurts the rest of us by reducing competition and increasing costs of the services those vocations offer. That’s why the best regulator of professions is the consumer – not state bureaucrats. After all, that’s how the free market is supposed to work.

After the holidays, Illinois voters will be treated to another dizzying season – one that involves campaign ads, stump speeches and soundbites. The March primary season has arrived. Republican voters in DuPage County will soon decide a challenger to Gov. Pat Quinn from a crowded field of new and familiar faces. Elections generally favor incumbents, but many view Quinn as vulnerable since he narrowly won his first full term as governor in 2010. With a legislature dominated by Democrats, Republicans are also eager to send their first candidate back to the Governor’s Mansion since former Gov. George Ryan left embroiled in scandal in 2003 that eventually sent him to prison. Here’s a look at the four Republican candidates on the March 18 primary ballot vying to challenge Quinn in November.

State Sen. Bill Brady, R-Bloomington

The downstate Republican came close to defeating Quinn in 2010, losing by roughly 32,000 votes. Brady won 98 of the state’s 102 counties but lost the most populous one – Cook County, a traditional stronghold for Democrats. The state’s poor economic health and Quinn’s income tax hike support all favorably carried Brady into the final moments of the 2010 campaign. But Quinn’s campaign turned voters’ attention to Brady’s social conservatism, a political philosophy that doesn’t play well with some right-centered suburban voters. Brady in this campaign has shied away from his socially conservative positions on issues such as abortion and gun control, and has focused on the state’s economy and financial health. He also helped the recent pension reform deal pass the Illinois Senate.

On his campaign website, Brady states he would strictly cut government spending to try and balance Illinois’ budget. He would let the 2011 temporary income tax increase expire in 2015, an issue expected to dominate the gubernatorial race. Brady first launched a bid for governor in 2006, finishing third in the Republican primary. The 52-year-old Bloomington native also helps run the family’s real estate business that has financially struggled since the economic recession.

State Sen. Kirk Dillard, R-Hinsdale

The chief of staff to former Gov. Jim Edgar narrowly lost a chance to compete against Quinn. Brady defeated the DuPage County senator by a mere 193 votes in the GOP primary four years ago. Dillard will try to right his campaign in 2014, but he already has a messaging snafu. Dillard voted against the brokered pension reform in December, while his running mate Sen. Jill Tracy, R-Quincy, voted for it. Primary opponents have yet to seize on the inconsistency between the Dillard ticket, but the pension deal for candidates on both sides will likely be a reoccurring issue throughout the election. Dillard, 58, brings decades of political experience as a statewide candidate, having served policy roles for both Edgar and former Gov. Jim Thompson. A Republican statehouse leader, Dillard has served 20 years in the Senate. Dillard’s campaign focuses on economic and budget issues, according to his website. His “Destination Illinois” plan would make Illinois business friendly and shrink the scope of state government – all positions that resonate with typical Republican voters.

WSD • Wednesday, January 8, 2014 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life

BOLINGBROOK – A Bolingbrook man who thought he was paying a Joliet woman for sex instead was robbed at gunpoint, according to Bolingbrook police. The 25-year-old man met Chelsea S. Dean, 18, of 307 Stryker, Joliet, at a residence in the 1300 block of Parkside Drive around 10:43 p.m. Sunday but once inside, Jesus M. Simms, 21, of 1317 Parkside Drive, Bolingbrook, allegedly pointed a gun to his head before taking $85 in cash from his pockets, Lt. Michael Rompa said. Dean and Simms then kicked the victim out of the house and proceeded to call police alleging that the victim was actually Dean’s ex-boyfriend, and that he choked and threatened her with a gun before leaving, police said. Police later located the victim, obtained additional information and determined that Dean and Simms had made a false police report. Dean was charged with armed robbery, filing a false police report and prostitution, and Simms was charged with armed robbery, aggravated assault and filing a false police report, police said. The victim was not charged with a crime, according to police.

DOWNERS GROVE – Is there anyone more in tune with karma and the idea of reciprocity than yoga lovers? Downers Grove resident Sue Gervase bets the benevolent spirit among those who practice the tradition will help make her new pay-what-youcan, donation-based studio Yoga 2 U a success. Gervase started the new studio Monday inside Patriot Boxing, 2425 Curtiss St., Downers Grove. She said if the business is a success, gym owner Nick Janowitz has offered to knock down an existing wall for more space.

a regular, weekly class might run about $10 each. She hopes her class will attract both those who couldn’t afford yoga before, along with seasoned yogis who might bring friends. But most of all, she hopes the plan can be a good way to spread the physical and mental benefits of the practice. “One hundred people practicing yoga giving me $2 each is better than 10 people giving me $20 each,” she said. “All in all I get the same, but I personally will get more out of it if I see more people practicing yoga.” She said she plans to go to women’s shelters as well to let them know they are welcome to attend her classes. “Once people feel the transformation of the body and mind and spirit, maybe they will feel they can let something go, like junk food, so they can pay to keep the place going,” she said. Gervase was inspired to try the business model after talking with a well-known yoga instructor Deborah Williamson, who started a similar studio near Sheboygan, Wis. “It’s not as popular as I think it should be,” Gervase said. “And I’m just very excited about it.”

THE DOWNERS GROVE POLICE DEPARTMENT ISSUES REMINDER TO PUBLIC: New Cell Phone Law – Effective January 1, 2014

BUS DRIVERS WANTED The Village of Downers Grove is accepting applications for parttime bus drivers.

The Downers Grove Police Department would like to make our citizens aware of a revision to the Illinois Vehicle Code pertaining to using cell phones while driving. Beginning January 1, 2014, anyone utilizing a cell phone while driving must use a hands-free device. This is in addition to the prohibition against using any electronic device to compose, send, or read an electronic message (texting).

Minimum Requirements: Requirements include a CDL Class “B” License with Passenger and Air Brake endorsements and a good driving record. Candidates must be at least 21 years old. Starting Wage - $14.44/hour to $17.33/hour with potential to $19.89/hour. Applications are available at the reception desk in the Village Hall. Position is opened until filled. E.O.E.

Because protecting public safety is at the heart of our mission, the Downers Grove Police Department has joined thousands of other state and local law enforcement agencies in educating the public about this change in the law. Officers will begin enforcement of this revision to the cell phone law immediately.

TRASH COLLECTION IS DELAYED ONE DAY THIS WEEK DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER.

Please remember that when you are talking on a cell phone - whether it is handsfree or not – you are four times more likely to crash. When you text while driving, you are 23 times more likely to crash. A cell phone conversation poses a significant distraction to the task of driving. Please consider the potential results of being distracted while driving – choose to stay safe; make the phone call when you are not operating a vehicle.

But he encountered early problems in the Treasurer’s Office, primarily with the botched promotion of the Bright Star college savings program. He also faced criticism when thousands of recipients

What’s up with tunnel project?

The Lisle Main Street pedestrian tunnel underneath the Metra tracks has been in disrepair for many years. On Nov. 1, it was closed for repair. Not only is this a major inconvenience, it is a major safety issue. Who makes these decisions? Certainly not a commuter. Perhaps it was the same people who permanently from a different college savings program received mailers with their Social Security numbers printed on the front. Rutherford has tried to make a name as a taxpayer steward, cutting equipment and supplies while in office.

Venture capitalist Bruce Rauner

Public Works Department is doing a good job

This is a response to a letter that appeared in the Dec. 25 Suburban Life: I want to thank the writer who wrote regarding the State of Illinois pension system. The information that

Early Thursday morning, I noticed my mailbox post had been broken off at the base by a snow plow. I called the Lombard Public Works Department and left a message not knowing what, if anything, they would do. Even with all of the work going on I heard back from them within two hours. A very pleasant woman let me know that not only would the city replace my mailbox (probably in the spring) but that a temporary box would be put up within a day or two. Much to my surprise, before the mailman arrived, a replacement box had been installed and I never missed a letter. Way to go Lombard Public Works Department.

The wealthy businessman from Winnetka spent big money ($1.5 million) on early TV ads this holiday season to introduce himself to Illinois voters. As a first-time candidate with deep pockets, Rauner has branded himself a political outsider, who will challenge the Springfield status quo and public unions in the mold of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. He also launched a ballot initiative to create term limits through a constitutional amendment. Rauner recently started a “Hammer and Shake” website and social media campaign that emphasizes his promises to hammer out the special interests in Illinois government and shake up Springfield. But Rauner has also avoid-

ed talking in detail about his work as a venture capitalist. His recently disclosed federal income tax returns show that he made $53 million in 2012 from various hedge funds and business partnerships. Rauner’s business dealings at the Chicago-based private equity firm GTCR also helped Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel earn millions after Emanuel left the Clinton administration to become an investment banker. The two have remained friends. Going forward, Rauner likely will use his large war chest to increase his recognition with suburban and downstate Republican voters, while his primary rivals hammer away at his political inexperience and ties to powerful Chicago Democrats.

Glen Oak Restaurant unveils its new menu

GLEN ELLYN – We made a happy discovery when we stepped inside Glen Oak Restaurant on a recent Sunday, finding ourselves hungry but not sure what we were in the mood for foodwise. Art posters dot the walls of the downtown Glen Ellyn eatery, whose high-ceilinged, airy space has lots of elbow room, with tables and comfortable booths. Dining there for the first time, we noticed the unusual touch of casters on the chairs for ease of motion. With expansive windows all around for views, we enjoyed watching the trains a block away. A friendly server brought over warm rolls, quickly followed by the French onion soup we’d ordered. It was an ideal antidote to a bitterly wintry day. A telltale clue that it was freshly homemade were the chunky onions and an errant bayleaf. My dining companion was pleased the soup wasn’t too salty, adding, “There’s a zesty bite to it.” For his main course, he opted for the Reuben sandwich. The tender corned beef was piled high on rye, with just the right proportion of sauerkraut and melted Swiss, and a crunchy dill pickle. The sandwich normally is served with Thousand Island dressing, but he changed it up with bleu cheese. The Reuben passed the test with flying colors. I focused on the breakfast menu, which is served all day. An avowed omelet fan, I wasn’t disappointed with a delicious blend of creamy cheese, grilled onions, spinach and ham. For a side, I chose hash browns, which arrived light, slightly crispy and ready to be seasoned to personal liking. My companion felt compelled to complete the homey diner experience with a slice of warm cherry pie a la mode for a sweet finish to an enjoyable meal. The restaurant begins the New Year with a change in

Its Facebook page states the shift reflects patrons’ preference to dine out for breakfast and lunch rather than dinner. The full bar service will continue. And late afternoon and evenings, the restaurant will be available for private events. We’re looking forward to trying other dishes next time around, knowing we won’t leave hungry. The ample leftovers we took home tasted great for lunch the next day. The new menu offers a wide array of breakfast

specialties including sweet or savory crepes, multiple Benedict variations and gluten-free pancakes, plus panini, burgers, wraps, salads, sandwiches and other fare. We learned Glen Oak has been around for three decades, and now we know why.

Just how far away from Playoffs are Bears? Hub Arkush

Of the 12 teams that started the 2013 playoffs, the Bears only played four of them. In five games against Green Bay (2), Cincinnati, New Orleans and Philadelphia, the Bears were 2-3. The Bengals game was the first game of the season and the Bengals did as much or more to lose it as the Bears did to win it, kind of like Cincinnati’s third consecutive first round playoff exit last Sunday. Their other win over the Packers was accomplished without Aaron Rodgers as quarterback. Including the Bears game in which Rodgers went out after their first possession, the Packers were 2-5-1 without Rodgers including losses to the Giants, Lions and Steelers. The Bears losses to New Orleans and Philadelphia were their only two

losses of the year in which they were noncompetitive, and their other five losses besides a loss to the Packers were to Detroit (2) and the last place Rams, Vikings and Redskins. The Bears are clearly not in the same league with this year’s playoff teams. For starters, the Bears need to get better at quarterback. Seven of the 12 playoff starters including Nick Foles, Peyton Manning, Philip Rivers, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick (91.6) had better passer ratings than Jay Cutler and all but Kaepernick were at least 12 points better at 101.2 and above while Cutler was 89.2. The other five Alex Smith (89.1), Andy Dalton (88.8), Cam Newton (88.8), Tom Brady (87.3) and Andrew Luck (87.0) were all almost even with Cutler in rating, all of them threw more touchdowns and only Dalton and Newton threw more picks. You tell me, other than Dalton is there a QB in the group you wouldn’t take over Cutler? The Bears are very competitive

with all of these playoff clubs at running back and wide receiver. With the possible exception of the Broncos, the Bears are better than any of those clubs at those positions. The only 2013 playoff teams that aren’t clearly more talented on the offensive line than the Bears are Indianapolis, San Diego and Green Bay. The Bears line was effective most of the time this season, but it’s not capable of taking over games the way the 49ers, Eagles, Seahawks, Panthers, Broncos, Patriots and Chiefs can at times. If you’re a Bears fan you already know that defensively they just don’t match up, particularly in the NFC. Seattle, the number one seed in the NFC also is first in the NFL in scoring defense. The second seeded Panthers are second in the league in fewest points allowed, the fifth seeded 49ers are third and the sixth seeded Saints are fourth. In the AFC, the Bengals and Chiefs tied for fifth in the league in scoring defense, the Colts were ninth in the league, the Patriots 10th and the Char-

gers were actually 11th. Nine of the 12 playoff teams are in the top 11 in scoring defense. In that top 11 only the Cardinals – seventh in points allowed and 10-6 – and the Dolphins – eighth and 8-8 – failed to make the playoffs. The Bears were 30th in scoring defense in 2013, tied with the Redskins and only the Vikings were worse. The Bears dramatic improvement on offense under Marc Trestman this year was exciting and at times a lot of fun to watch. But their decline from fifth in the NFL in total defense in 2012, eighth vs. the run and third in points allowed is the reason they fell from 10-6 to 8-8 and are not currently a legitimate contender. It is quite possible the Bears will improve at quarterback as Cutler spends more time with Trestman, but the only way they’re going back to the playoffs for the first time in four seasons and just the second time in the last eight is by turning over the defensive half of their roster with a lot more talent.

$2 million guaranteed; and Ryan Fitzpatrick, Titans, two years, $6.5 million, $1.75 million guaranteed. Those quarterbacks, though, all signed with teams that did not just throw $54 million guaranteed at its starter. Of the teams paying the most guaranteed money for its starting quarterback, only one rewarded its backup more than $1 million in base salary last season: the Lions paid Shaun Hill $2.4 million (Kyle Orton restructured his deal to lower his base salary after Tony Romo got paid). Backups for Tom Brady and Peyton Manning are still on their rookie deals, Joe Flacco’s backup – Tyrod Taylor – made a little more than a half million, while Matt Ryan’s backup – Dominique Davis – made $480,000. McCown’s brother, Luke, made $840,000 as Drew Brees’ backup. The Bears would need to find an amount that works for McCown, but also isn’t dedicating too much 2014 money to the quarterback position, one

that doesn’t need nearly as much improvement as the other side of the ball. That’s a reminder that we don’t know how McCown fits in the Bears’ priorities during the next few months with a defense to fix, but we have a good idea where he is among Cutler’s priorities. “I’d like to see him come back,” Cutler said after signing his seven-year contract. “I know we’d love to have him back. I know Phil touched on it. We’d like to have him back in the building just because of the amount of work he does behind the scenes with the younger players and myself. Just the experience he brings to the quarterback room, it’s very valuable. “We’ll see how that works out.” McCown will have his suitors, and he’ll keep in mind his four kids that live in North Carolina as he decides what’s best for his family. By the time free agency opens on March 11, the Bears will have a better grasp on their cap situation, how McCown would fit into the fold and if they can bring a fan and team favorite back next season.

Jay Cutler received the richest check the franchise has signed, but what’s next for his backup? Josh McCown played sensational football in his five starts and time in relief in two other games, while also igniting a quarterback controversy (albeit, outside the walls Josh of Halas Hall) during McCown what coach Marc Trestman referred to as Cutler’s best season. McCown, who turns 35 in July, completed 66.5 percent of his passes for 13 touchdowns and one interception, good for a passer rating of 109.0. “Love to have Josh back. I’ve expressed that to him,” general manager Phil Emery said Thursday. “Josh, through his play, has earned the right to have choices, and he’s got a lot of them and he’ll have a lot of them. He does

know he has a home here and that we’ll do everything we can to make it work if he decides he still wants to play here.” Can the Bears afford McCown? It may seem like a ridiculous question when talking about a 35-year-old backup, journeyman quarterback who made $840,000 in 2013. But, as Emery said, McCown will have options. The Bears signed Jason Campbell to a $3.5 million deal in 2012 with a $2 million signing bonus, so McCown and his representation could use that as a place to start. Or, they could look at the highest-paid backups in the league. Here are some of the noteworthy and lucrative backup quarterback contracts signed last offseason (all contract details per Spotrac): Chase Daniel, Chiefs, three years, $10 million, $4.8 million guaranteed; Matt Moore, Dolphins, two years, $8 million, $4 million guaranteed; Matt Hasselbeck, Colts, two years, $7.25 million, $3 million guaranteed; Matt Cassel, Vikings, two years, $7.4 million,

Who: Lincoln-Way West at Bolingbrook What: SouthWest Suburban Blue conference game When: 7 p.m. Friday Where: 365 Raider Way, Bolingbrook

“The kids want to play. They want games. That’s the way players are. But they’re responding well to our practices.” Rob Brost

Bolingbrook head coach

after a long layoff between games could provide a boost. “I think it always helps being at home, where you’re comfortable,” Brost said. “We’ve played more road games so far when you take into consideration the tournaments at Thanksgiving and over the holidays, but any time you can play at home, it’s a good thing.” Bolingbrook’s potent offense, which has scored 80 or more points five times, including twice in the McDipper, will be tested Friday against an East team that likes to play a more slow, methodical game. “I’ve seen [East] on a couple tapes and once in person, and they’re a solid club,” Brost said. “They recently got their point guard back that they didn’t have the first half of the season, and he helps them out Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com a lot. They try to slow it down and play zone, so we’re going Bolingbrook forward Josh Dillingham (right) battles for an offensive rebound in a Dec. 13 game against to have to be ready for that.” Joliet West. The Raiders return home and end a long layoff Friday night against Lincoln-Way East.

BBR

BOLINGBROOK – Players play and coaches coach, and right now, Bolingbrook’s boys basketball players can’t wait to take the floor. The Raiders haven’t played since topping Joliet Central, 91-62, in the third place game of Rich South’s McDipper tournament Dec. 30. The squad has had ample practice time since then, but head coach Rob Brost said his team is itching for game action. “The kids want to play. They want games. That’s the way players are,” Brost said. “But they’re responding well to our practices. We’ve had a different practice schedule with no school, and with the weather some kids haven’t been able to make it to practice, but we’ve done a good job.” In the tournament finale, Prentiss Nixon paced five Raiders in double figures with 19 points. Shakur Triplett (15 points), Julian Torres (12 points), Kenny Williams (11 points) and Gage Davis (10 points) also reached double digits for Bolingbrook. Nixon and Davis were named to the all-tournament team. “I have nothing to do with deciding the all-tournament team,” Brost said, “but any time kids are recognized for their accomplishments, it’s a positive for them and a positive for the program. The team comes before the individual honor, and they know that, but it’s still a nice honor.” The extended period of practices lead up to Bolingbrook’s only home game in the month of January, Friday’s contest against Lincoln-Way East. The Raiders won’t play at home again until Feb. 11, but being at home this week

Benet ready for second-half tests By JASON ROSSI

jrossi@shawmedia.com LISLE – Leaving the Proviso West Holiday Tournament with a 2-2 record wasn’t quite what Benet’s boys basketball team and head coach Gene Heidkamp had in mind. But considering the Redwings have bigger goals down the road, posting a .500 tournament record against some tough competition could serve them well as they start the second half of the season. “We did all right,” Heidkamp said. “We went 2-2 and lost two close games. I’d like to have played better, but all in all it was fine.” Benet alternated wins and losses at the tournament. After topping Foreman, 69-52, to start the tourney, Benet fell to Providence St. Mel, 54-50, in the second round. A 76-51 win over Hillcrest on Dec. 28 preceded a 70-67 loss to Rockford Auburn on Dec. 30. In the tournament finale, Sean O’Mara’s layup with 32 seconds left tied the game at 67-67, but Auburn’s Zayvious Hoover drained three free throws with three seconds left to deal the Redwings a 70-67 defeat. O’Mara led all scorers in the game with 30 points, while Liam Nelligan added 15 points and Colin Bonnett tallied 10. O’Mara was the game’s leading scorer in each game. He had 22 points against Hillcrest, 25 against Providence St. Mel and 20 against Foreman. The senior center was named to the all-tournament first team. “Sean draws a lot of attention, but the other guys are doing fairly well, especially considering they’re guys who didn’t see a lot of playing time on varsity last year,” Heidkamp said. A better performance at the tourney was hoped for, but the Redwings have more interest in a long playoff run, and testing themselves at Proviso West was a good precursor to the grind of the postseason. “I think it was productive from the standpoint that we have areas where we have to get better, and we saw that,”

Next game Who: Benet at York What: Nonconference game When: 7:30 p.m. Friday Where: 355 W. St. Charles Road, Elmhurst

“I think it was productive from the standpoint that we have areas where we have to get better, and we saw that. We have to get better defensively and we have to cut down on our turnovers. These are games we can learn from. We know we have to get better defensively, take care of the ball better and play situational ball better.” Gene Heidkamp Benet head coach

Heidkamp said. “We have to get better defensively and we have to cut down on our turnovers. “These are games we can learn from. We know we have to get better defensively, take care of the ball better and play situational ball better.” Benet is 8-4 against a solid schedule, and the tests will keep on coming. The Redwings face a oneloss York team on the road Friday, and still have games against Notre Dame, St. Viator and Stevenson, the Proviso West champs and last year’s Class 4A state runner-up, left on the schedule. “We’ve only played 12 games, and of our four losses, all four were winnable games. Three were decided in the last 10 seconds,” Heidkamp said. “We’re playing a high level of competition. If we scheduled teams to try to get a gaudy reBill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com cord, we would not play the Benet’s Sean O’Mara puts up a shot against Foreman in a Dec. 26 game at the Proviso West Holiday Tournateams we are playing.” ment. O’Mara was named to the all-tournament team after leading the Redwings in scoring in all four games.
