The first name of Oak Creek Mayor J. Elliott was incorrect in the story “Oak Creek trustee, commissioner resigns,” on page 6 of Friday’s Steamboat Today. Elliott presented outgoing trustee Dave Ege with a police commissioners badge. The dates for Gov. Bill Ritter’s recovery team meetings were incorrect in the story “Ritter’s recovery act team to visit” on page 13 of Friday’s Steamboat Today. The Steamboat me etings are Sept. 22, and the Craig meetings are Sept. 21.

Evidence is mounting that the biggest issue has been taken off the table in the most compelling race in the 2009 City Council election. Former City Council President Kevin Bennett has made his opposition to the proposed Steamboat 700 annexation a cornerstone of his campaign against City Council President Pro Tem Cari Hermacinski.

At a Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association event Friday morning, Hermacinski reiterated concerns about Steamboat 700 that she first raised at a City Council meeting Tuesday. At a potential cost of more than $100 million, Hermacinski said improvements to U.S. Highway 40 alone are so expensive that

they threaten the viability of the project and undermine the No. 1 goal of the West of Steamboat Springs Area Plan: affordable housing. She said the WSSAP was written under the assumption that the state and federal government would help pay for the improvements, a prospect that is unlikely in the near term given budget constraints. “I’m concerned that the WSSAP, in light of some funSee City Council, page 15

Coal car separates in South Routt Part of Union Pacific train came off its wheels Friday; no injuries in accident OAK CREEK

One car of a 104-car Union Pacific Railroad coal train came off its wheels south of Oak Creek at about 3:45 Friday morning, leaving the car upright and resting on the tracks. There were no injuries in the accident, and mechanics from Union Pacific were immediately dispatched to the scene, Union Pacific spokesman Mark Davis said. Davis, based in Omaha, said the train had six locomotives and was headed from the Twentymile Coal Co.’s Foidel Creek Mine to a utility company south of Cañon City. The train was loaded with coal at the time of the accident. The car, which came off one of its two sets of wheel carriages weighed about 125 tons, Davis said. When the car and its separated wheels came to rest, they were less than 50 feet apart. Davis said it was not yet clear Friday morning why the car lost its wheels, but that it is likely because of mechanical failure Crews were expected to use

cranes and specially equipped bulldozers to move the broken car and repair it if possible. “If it’s upright, once they do their inspections, it should take literally minutes once the equipment arrives,” he said. A bulldozer and specialized cranes arrived at about 11:30 a.m. Friday, and Davis said it appears the broken car was placed back on the

wheels and removed by early Friday afternoon. Davis said he did not know where the repair crews were dispatched from, but records show it took them about three hours to arrive on scene. Davis said it did not appear that any other trains were delayed or rerouted because of the accident. Routt County Communi-

cations Director JP Harris said the dispatch center received a call directly from Union Pacific informing them about the crash but did not receive any 911 calls. Routt County Sheriff’s Office receptionist Chris Huffar said deputies were not called to the scene. There are no homes near the site of the derailment, and there was no apparent damage to the tracks. Friday’s incident did not involve a collision with a motor vehicle. But Rout County has seen a substantial number of such incidents. In September 2006, after the third vehicle-train collision in 10 months, Steamboat Today eported that Routt County had seen 37 vehicle-train collisions since 1975. In August 2007, a westbound coal train struck the back of a semitrailer as it attempted to turn east onto U.S. Highway 40 from a private driveway that was intersected by the railroad tracks on the west side of Steamboat Springs.

With their decision to negotiate a new golf professional contract at Haymaker Golf Course and part ways with pro Hank Franks, city officials hope to maximize the course’s potential and revenues with an increased focus on special events, tourist rounds and teaching. Council voted Tuesday to accept the Golf Management Committee’s recommendation to negotiate a contract with the partnership of two local men, Tom Taylor and Luke Brosterhous. “They brought a real energy, a creativity and a passion to try and maximize the potentials at Haymaker and drive more business — both local business and out-of-town business — to the course,” committee Chairman John Vanderbloemen said. The change in direction, however, split council members and residents. “What direction is this golf committee going to go in?” local golfer Darrell Jansa said at the council meeting. Jansa said he couldn’t imagine management of the course getting any better than it is under Franks, and he argued that the city was treating a longtime employee distastefully. Franks and his wife,

Wendy, have run the golf course since it opened in 1997. Some council members agreed and said the city is fixing something that isn’t broken. “I’m not real comfortable with this change,” Councilman Steve Ivancie said. “They have the experience, the reputation and the respect. I think we should keep them.” The decision to advertise the position after more than a decade with Franks was based on City Council direction during the budgeting process last year to reevaluate all existing contracts as

they expire. The city received six proposals for the position and interviewed three finalists, including Franks. The new contract will take effect Jan. 1. Another local golfer at Tuesday’s council meeting, Michael Turner, said he supports the golf committee’s decision. “It’s a wonderful golf course and it’s well run,” Turner said. “But there has been a need for a slight improvement in management.” City Council President Loui Antonucci said it would be inappropriate to deny the golf committee’s recommendation after it did exactly what council asked it to. “I think we put our faith in them to do the right thing,” Antonucci said. “The truth is we gave our golf committee a charge … and I think we need to take their recommendation.” Vanderbloemen stressed that the process was not conducted as a review of past performance but as an evaluation of the proposals brought forth after the city advertised the position. “I can’t tell you how much I appreciate what (the Franks) have done for Haymaker over the years,” he said. Taylor has formerly served as an assistant pro at Haymaker

Steamboat Springs School District Superintendent Shalee Cunningham alerted parents Friday to three cases of swine flu at Steamboat Springs High School. “This memo is to let you know that we do have three confirmed cases of the H1N1 virus at the high school,” Cunningham wrote in an e-mail. “The students have been sent home and will remain home until the symptoms have passed. It is not our intent to close schools; we are treating this like any other influenza.” Health care professionals here say it is almost certain the H1N1 virus, commonly referred to as swine flu, is making the rounds in Steamboat. However, they add that they would be surprised if local clinics had sent patient samples to the state health lab for the additional testing needed to confirm that a case of type A influenza was the H1N1 virus.

For more information Scroll down to find answers to frequently asked questions, including “Why isn’t my physician testing for H1N1 virus?” by visiting www.cdphe. state.co.us/epr/H1N1.html Find regular flu updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly

One possible explanation behind the confirmed diagnoses they say, is that it’s unusually early to see cases of seasonal flu, and mid-September diagnoses are a strong indicator of swine flu. Mary Dierdorff, head nurse at Steamboat Medical Group, said her clinic has diagnosed patients, including students at the University of Colorado and Colorado State University, with type A influenza. But not only have they not confirmed they were cases of H1N1 virus, they haven’t even sent patients’ nasal test swabs to the state health lab for the needed additional testing.

COMMENTARY

Do you have something to say about a story we’ve written?

The Dime Standard David Brooks

THE NEW YORK TIMES

On Wednesday night, Barack Obama delivered the finest speech of his presidency. The exposition of his health care views was clear and lively. The invocation of Teddy Kennedy was moving and effective. The rumination at the end about the American character and the role of government was the clearest summary of Obama’s political philosophy that he has yet given us. Best of all was the Brooks speech’s seductive nature and careful ambiguity. Obama threw out enough rhetorical chum to keep the liberals happy, yet he subtly staked out ground in the center on nearly every substantive issue in order to win the moderates needed to get anything passed. First, Obama rested the credibility of

his presidency on what you might call the Dime Standard. He was flexible about many things, but not this: “I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits — either now or in the future. Period.” This sound bite kills the House health care bill. That bill would add $220 billion (that’s 2.2 trillion dimes) to the deficit during the first 10 years and another $1 trillion (10 trillion dimes) to the deficit during the next 10 years. There is no way to get from the House bill to deficit neutrality. The president’s speech guarantees that the more moderate Senate Finance Committee bill will be the basis for the negotiations to come. The Dime Standard also sets off a political cascade. Since the Congressional Budget Office is the universally accepted arbiter in such matters, the Democrats have to produce a bill that the CBO says is deficit-neutral, now and forever. That means there will be a seller’s market for any member of Congress, Republican or

Democrat, who has a credible amendment to cut costs. It also means the Democrats will have to scale back coverage and subsidy levels to reach the fiscal targets. Second, the president accepted the principle of capping the tax exemption on employer-provided health benefits. The specific proposal he embraced is a backdoor and indirect version of the cap. But what’s important here is the movement and the concession on principle. Soon moderates and Republicans will produce amendments to impose a cap directly. These amendments will credibly raise revenue and reduce costs. The administration will now have no principled argument to reject them. Third, the president accepted the principle of tort reform to reduce the costs of defensive medicine. Once again, the specific proposal Obama mentioned is trivial. The important thing was the concession on principle. There are already amendSee Brooks, page 9

Brain-dead mudslingers Clarence Page

TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

Score one for the right wing. Conservative witch hunters, notably Fox News’ Glenn Beck, are claiming victory for hounding President Barack Obama’s green jobs czar out of office. Yet the victory also highlights a gaping deficit in America’s conservative movement. They’ve become more adept in recent years at trashing liberal ideas than at coming up with some new ones of their own. Page Van Jones, a San Francisco Bay-area activist for environment-friendly “green-collar” industries, resigned as the president’s special adviser for environmental jobs after weeks of mud slung up against him by Beck and other conservative media pundits. His credentials are outstanding, but

MALLARD FILLMORE

these are politically polarized times. At a time when nervous parents were threatening to pull their children out of school, for example, ironically to avoid hearing Obama speak about the value of education, the outspokenly progressive Jones hardly had a chance. At 40, Jones is a bright, charismatic organizer who came up from a small-town Tennessee childhood to graduate from Yale Law School and become a rising star in the world of environmental activism. He’s author of a New York Times bestseller “The Green Collar Economy,” and was named by Time Magazine this year as one of the “100 most influential people in the world” and by Fast Company magazine last year as one of the “12 Most Creative Minds.” Like Obama, he has a knack for reaching across lines of race, class and political parties — until now, anyway — to create jobs and help save the environment. At the center of his vision is the creation of

“green collar” jobs, a phrase he popularized for jobs that can provide family-supporting wages and upward mobility to higher skills, and help save the planet, too. “We’re asking questions progressives like, but we’re giving answers that conservatives should like,” he said at last month’s National Clean Energy Summit in Las Vegas. “We’re not talking about expanding welfare, we’re talking about expanding work. We’re not talking about expanding entitlements, we’re talking about expanding enterprise and investments. ... We should be able to stand together and be one country on this.” Yes, we should. But while Jones was calling for “one country,” Beck and Company were digging into his background like a political campaign’s hit squad to smear Jones as a “communistanarchist radical.” Yes, Jones dabbled in radical politics in his younger days, See Page, page 9 Bruce Tinsley

Ramesh Ponnuru, a senior editor at the conservative National Review that Buckley founded, sounds similarly frustrated. “Republicans have a high degree of unity these days, which has been very helpful in opposing liberal initiatives such as the stimulus and the Democrats’ health care legislation,” he writes in the magazine’s current issue. “The downside of that unity is that it is less helpful in generating new ideas, some of which the party will probably need to retake power and will certainly need to exercise it productively.” In the meantime, the GOP’s conservative base has legions of talk-show pundits to fire up their hearts, if not their minds.

but that was then. Beck and Company apparently don’t think much of political redemption. Most embarrassing to Jones are YouTube videos of him speaking his mind before he was appointed to his White House post. They include a well-publicized vulgarity that starts with “A” and has an “H” in the middle. He employed the A-word to describe Republicans during a February meeting. He’s apologized, but the flap made him too big a headache for the Obama White House. He also apologized for signing a petition in 2004 that called for further investigation of the Bush administration’s actions before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks — though he was hardly the only person in 2004 who wanted

to know more about how Bush responded to intelligence information that Osama Bin Laden was determined to attack the United States. Significantly, Jones’ remarks hardly ventured further to the left than Beck’s rambling commentaries swerve to the far right. But Beck’s a talk-show host. When he goes over-the-top and accuses Obama of “deep-seated hatred of white people,” he gets bigger ratings. But the larger significance of Jones’ departure is what it says about the conservatives who pushed him out. As Sam Tanenhaus, a biographer of Whittaker Chambers and William F. Buckley, writes in his new book-length essay, “The Death of Conservatism,” the movement that turned the Republicans into the party of

up many opportunities for intelligent Republicans and moderate Democrats to constructively offer amendments to improve the bill and bring it closer to fiscal sanity. Which is not to say that this is effective health care reform. The only risible parts of the speech came when Obama said that parts of the system work (they don’t; they’re unsustainable) and when he said he would be the last president to take on health care (we still await a president willing to take on fundamental perversities in the system). For whatever reason, President Obama has decided not to be that president. He has decided to expand the current system, not fix it. His speech Wednesday, and the coming legislative changes, make it much more likely he will achieve his goal.

ments being drawn up to create separate malpractice courts and to otherwise reform the insane malpractice system. The president is going to have a hard time rejecting these amendments just because they might reduce campaign donations from tort lawyers to the Democratic National Committee. Fourth, the president introduced the public option to its own exclusive Death Panel. As Max Baucus has said, the public option cannot pass the Senate. On Wednesday, the president praised it, then effectively buried it. White House officials no longer mask their exasperation with the liberal obsession on this issue. Fifth, the president buried the soak-the-rich approach. The House Ways and Means

Committee came up with a plan to raise taxes on the rich to pay for health reform. That’s dead, too. Health reform will be paid for by changes within the health care system. The president underlined his resolve to cut $500 billion from Medicare and Medicaid. Finally, people in the administration and moderates in Congress would like to beef up the “game changers.” These are the wonky but important ideas like bundling hospital payments and increasing price transparency that might lead to a more efficient system down the road. In short, the president can read the polls just like anybody else. He has apparently recognized the need to pull back to get something passed. He is, characteristically, trying to rise above old divisions in search of a pragmatic sweet spot. He has opened

News in brief Gardening workshops hosted Sept. 24 and 27 Yampatika and Deep Roots are co-sponsoring a new series of gardening worshops called From the Ground Up. The workshops are from 5 to 7 p.m. Sept. 24 and from 9 a.m. to noon Sept. 27. The series begins with a tour of Yampatika’s new presence on an old ranch: the Legacy Ranch south of Steamboat Springs. The plan is to install an heirloom vegetable garden on the property, in an area that probably hasn’t

ever seen a garden. The workshop series will include a discussion about how to determine the location of the garden, taking into consideration factors such as sunlight and water, and what to do to prepare the soil for good food production. There also will be hands-on work. Call Yampatika at 8719151.

Mosquitoes and water

��

When I first started coming to the Rescue Centre, I was terrified of malaria and typhoid. For people in the “West,” these are diseases of the impoverished, unhygienic, unfortunates and ignorants of the world. After all, isn’t a “$5 mosquito net” all that is needed to prevent malaria and “clean” water to prevent typhoid? Well, yes, but... A “$5 mosquito net” represents two days wages for a typical secretary in Kenya. “Clean water” might have to be carried for several miles from its source to a home — I’ve seen women walking while balancing a 20-

both of these diseases. But for most people here, it is not so straightforward. While consultation at district hospitals is free in Kenya, treatments are not. I just spent the equivalent of $50 for the injections and pills to treat malaria for one of the girls going to teacher’s college. Most Kenyans simply don’t have that kind of disposable cash on hand so they rely on over the counter treatments (often counterfeit and totally ineffective in actually ridding the body of the disease). Because often, the symptoms of malaria and typhoid might lessen on their own after a few days, people consider themselves cured. But malaria and typhoid will remain in the body and resurface time and time again for these people. And particularly with malaria, whether left untreated or a new case, each episode becomes more and more serious throughout one’s lifetime, causing liver damage and mental impairment. With the sudden onset of symptoms for malaria or

liter container on their heads, while carrying 10 liters in each hand. Two years after my first visit to the Rescue Centre, I am very sorry Walker to say that I have adopted the attitude of most every Kenyan I know — malaria and typhoid are considered much like we treat the flu at home. They are simply facts of life. But they also are serious, deadly diseases. Fortunately, treatments for malaria and typhoid are in abundance here. Unfortunately, many treatments fail to rid the body completely of the diseases so they are likely to resurface throughout a person’s lifetime. This is compounded by the fact that the symptoms of the two diseases can mimic and mask the presence of the other disease. Commonly, a person will test positive (via a very simple blood test) for both diseases. Being a Westerner, I of course, have access to effective preventives and treatments for

Organizational changes After orchestra musicians volunteered to play without pay to close the 2008-09 season, the SSO board has done some “belt-tightening,” McGee said. Volunteers have taken some work that once belonged to part-time paid positions, she said. Sally Williams, who served as the orchestra’s office manager, has expanded her

Tickets for the opening, holiday, community and spring concerts are $20 in advance and $25 at the door for adults, and $10 for youths. The Winter Soiree concert is $125 per person. An Oct. 14 event at Harwigs/L’Apogee, including food and wine, is $150 per person.

duties to become production manager. A volunteer produces the orchestra’s new monthly electronic newsletter, and the number of paid positions has been reduced and their responsibilities have been consolidated, McGee said. The goal is to cover the group’s costs without increasing ticket prices, she said. The average SSO concert costs $20,000 to $25,000 to produce, she said. Adult tickets for those concerts are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. A fundraising campaign to raise $100,000 to cover the difference between costs and revenues runs from the first concert Sept. 19 through the last holiday concert Dec. 6, board members said. — To reach Margaret Hair, call 871-4204 or e-mail mhair@steamboatpilot.com.

cians, board members said. The orchestra has transitioned into a professionally functioning ensemble in the past few years, led by Front Range-based music director Ernest Richardson. Steamboat Springs Orchestra is not affiliated with Strings Music Festival, though the group’s first concert is at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 19 at Strings Music Pavilion, said Lou Mathews, director of development, special events and marketing for SSO. Additional concerts are scheduled for Oct. 14 at Harwigs/L’Apogee; Dec. 5 and 6 at Steamboat Christian Center; Feb. 20 at Bud Werner Memorial Library; Feb. 21 at Steamboat Christian Center; and March 28 at a to-be-determined location. “We’re trying to select venues that are appropriate for each concert and … reach the greatest number of audience members,” said Bonnie McGee, president of the orchestra board of directors. Concert programming features several mainstays in classical orchestral repertoire, including Mozart’s Symphony No. 40 and Dvorak’s “New World Symphony.” Featured artists this season include SSO concertmaster Teresa Steffen Greenlee; SSO principal cellist John Sant’Ambrogio; and his daughters, violinist Stephanie and cellist Sara Sant’Ambrogio. The orchestra’s youth program, led by SSO violinist Bonnie Murray, is expanding this year through a partnership with Steamboat Springs band

Haymaker continued from 4 and as head golf professional and teaching professional at Catamount Ranch and Club. Brosterhous has served as an assistant golf professional and teaching professional at Catamount and Haymaker. In their proposal, the two men said they will enhance existing tournaments, attract new ones, create new special events and increase their emphasis on junior golf programs. “I think looking to the future, Haymaker needs to fulfill its potential and maximize its revenue,” Vanderbloemen said. “The one area Haymaker has always

struggled in is developing more tourist rounds and more tourist revenue to subsidize locals’ rates. … If we don’t, then over time the locals’ rates need to increase.” Locals’ greens fees increased about 5 percent across the board this year. Vanderbloemen said maximizing revenue is especially important as the city approaches the need to make a $1.5 million “balloon payment” on the course’s clubhouse in 2013. The golf professional is hired as an independent contractor for the city and is responsible for hiring and paying his or her own staff and serving as the chief operating officer for the course,

pro shop and practice facilities. Comparing the new proposal to Franks’ current contract is difficult because of changes the city decided to make to its compensation structure for the position. In 2008, Franks received an $86,000 retainer, plus revenues from other sources such as golf lessons and equipment sales. In all, the city paid $171,477. For the new contract, the city decided to no longer pay the golf pro a percentage of revenues from motor cart rentals and the practice range. This resulted in requests for higher retainers. Franks requested a $180,000 retainer. Taylor and Brosterhous requested $172,000.

Officials researching severity, number of cases Swine flu continued from 4 “It’s most likely that it’s H1N1,” Dierdorff said. “But we have to meet criteria to send them to the state. You have to be really sick for us to send them in.” For Steamboat families intent on caring for their youngsters, the discussion about whether it’s H1N1 or not may be academic. That’s because health providers here agree that the treatment for all symptoms and treatment for all strains of type A influenza are the same. “For us, these cases are confirmed because the parents (of the students) told us their physicians have confirmed them,”

said Dot Haberlan, team leader for school health services in Routt County public schools with the Northwest Colorado Visiting Nurse Association. Haberlan’s colleague at the VNA, public health nurse Janice Poirot, said many health care providers see no benefit to taking the extra step of confirming whether a flu patient has H1N1. “Just knowing that it’s type A flu drives the treatment,” she said. Dierdorff said depending on how far the bug has progressed, doctors may prescribe anti-viral medication that doesn’t cure the flu but lessens the severity of the symptoms.

Often, Haberlan said, flu patients don’t even know they are sick until they’ve had the disease for several days. “You can shed virus (meaning you are contagious) for several days and give it to someone else before you even know you have it,” Haberlan said. For that reason and others, Haberlan and Cunningham agree that closing school to decrease the possibility the flu will spread is undesirable. However, Cunningham said school officials have begun research that could be used to make a decision about closing the schools should the severity and number of flu cases become a greater concern.

ily outweighed by the possible relief. I’ve sat with girls soaking wet with sweat and freezing while their heads obviously pounded. It is a horribly impotent feeling to watch as they suffer. As they become increasingly dehydrated, often all that they will take for food is porridge — flour and water with a touch of sugar. One of the girls in her last year of high school, Caro, had malaria last school term. While I have to trust that the medicine she was given at the school dispensary was properly administered, I worry so

much that she might have a recurrence before her exams in November. This could derail her chances of performing well on the exam and qualifying for public university in Kenya. As one of the brightest, most determined and hardworking girls at the Rescue Centre, it would be totally devastating to her emotional well-being if this were to happen. But it is so typical of life here for these girls, that in spite of the opportunity they have been given to break away from horrible cultural practices, their success might all hinge on mosquitoes and water.

damental shifts in government funding and the economy, provides us with an unsolvable mandate,” Hermacinski said. “I don’t expect that growth will be an issue for the next four years, which is the length of the term for which we are vying.” Hermacinski also stayed silent about the city’s water agreement with Steamboat 700, which she has previously vehemently defended, after Bennett leveled heavy criticisms against it. Bennett said the current City Council has been too growthminded and let issues such as park creation and open space preservation — top priorities of residents according to community surveys — fall by the wayside. Bennett highlighted the accomplishments of his 1990s councils in those areas. “I have great concerns about the direction our council has brought our city in the past two years,” Bennett said. “They have focused us on annexation, and that is my concern. … I’m opposed to this annexation.” Hermacinski acknowledged that, before to her recent concerns, she has worked diligently with the rest of council, city staff and Steamboat 700 to implement the WSSAP. Bennett said he would bring a renewed emphasis to grant writing and partnerships to pay for new city amenities.

He said council members should focus on the quality of life Steamboat residents love so much. “We need to think about value investing versus growth investing,” Solomon said. “I will do my research, and I will listen to my community before making decisions.” Reisman said the community needs to focus on supporting businesses and attracting tourism by encouraging events such as Triple Crown Sports’ summer baseball and softball tournaments in Steamboat. “We need to be continually attracting people to come here,” Reisman said. “At the end of the day, if we are committed to being a sales-tax-based economy, we must maintain these

business relationships.” At-large candidates Jim Engelken and Kyle Pietras joked that their young daughters are good friends at Discovery Learning Center. The two clash on the issue of growth. Engelken, who also is a former council member, said he was spurred to run by his displeasure with the current council. “I’m not anti-growth,” Engelken said, “but I do believe we need to have … responsible growth, growth that enhances the city, not hurt it.” Pietras said the city needs growth to ensure future generations of working-class residents can call Steamboat home. “As a local business owner, I know what local people … are dealing with,” Pietras said. “One reason that I’m running for City Council is to put myself out of my comfort zone. … I think Steamboat might need to do this, as well.” Councilman Walter Magill is running unopposed for a four-year, District 3 seat. He said that fact is both good news and bad news. “Maybe it says I’m doing a good job,” Magill said, “but we have a lot of brain trust sitting on the side.” The entirety of Friday’s forum will be broadcast on the city’s television station, Comcast Channel 6 at 7 p.m. Monday. City Information Services Manager Mike Schmidt said the forum also will be made available on the city’s Web site, www.steamboatsprings.net, next week. — To reach Brandon Gee, call 367-7507 or e-mail bgee@steamboatpilot.com.

Sailors football squeaks by in Delta Luke Graham

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

The Delta High School football team had read the press clippings and seen the preseason polls. Whether Steamboat had bought into its own preseason

hype is up for debate. Regardless, the Sailors walked off the field Friday night in Delta, thankful to be heading home and lucky to get away with a 36-27 win. “I hate high school polls because they’re done by people who haven’t even seen us play,” said Steamboat coach Aaron

Finch, whose team was No. 3 in Class 3A by The Denver Post and tops by www.coloradopreps. com. “I wouldn’t even put us in the top 10 right now. We have so many challenges. We’re not the No. 1 team in the state. Do I think we can get better and be there? Absolutely.” In a game during which the

Panthers outgained the Sailors, 385 yards to 239, it came down to several halftime adjustments by Steamboat and one too many miscues by Delta. In the first half, the Panthers had a 3-and-out, a safety, a fumble and a bad snap inside their own 10-yard line to help propel Steamboat to a 17-0 lead.

Add in 137 yards in penalties and Delta had its opportunities. “I’m not that happy,” Steamboat linebacker Mitch Lekarczyk said. “I thought we played like (crap). Our problem was we weren’t playing as all 11 players. When one player would See Sailors, page 25

Toledo rolls past Colorado John Seewer

TOLEDO, OHIO

Toledo’s Aaron Opelt took apart Colorado’s defense through the air and on the ground, throwing four touchdown passes and running for two more as he rolled up 428 yards of offense in Toledo’s 5438 win against the woeful-looking Buffaloes on Friday. Colorado (0-2) simply couldn’t stop the Rockets (11), who averaged just under 10 yards per play. Toledo amassed 624 yards on an overmatched, tired-looking Buffs defense that was pushed around by archrival Colorado State just five days earlier in a 23-17 loss. The Buffs scored a pair of quick touchdowns to make it 37-24 late in the third quarter, but Opelt scampered 61 yards early in the fourth to thwart the rally and put the Rockets back up by 20. Colorado quarterback Cody Hawkins, the son of coach Dan Hawkins, completed 30 of 64 passes for 356 yards and four touchdowns — but also threw three interceptions. About the only bright spot for the Buffaloes was sophomore tailback Darrell Scott. After carrying the ball only once in the opener for 1 yard, he ran for 85 yards on 12 rushes — all in the first half. Hawkins was shaken up after diving in for a meaningless late TD, when Toledo’s Archie Donald popped lose the quarterback’s helmet on a helmet-tohelmet collision at the goal line.

Michael Jordan delivers his acceptance speech Friday during his induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame at Symphony Hall in Springfield, Mass.

Air Jordan reaches new heights Former NBA star emotional as he is inducted into Hall of Fame Brian Mahoney

SPRINGFIELD, MASS.

Michael Jordan’s thank you list went well beyond friends and family. There was the coach who cut him. The player who dissed him. The media who doubted him. Anyone who ever provided Jordan with motivation to become a better player — perhaps the greatest one ever. Jordan recalled all of it Friday night, when he joined David Robinson and John Stockton,

a pair of his 1992 Dream Team teammates, and coaches Jerry Sloan and C. Vivian Stringer in a distinguished class enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame. “The game of basketball has been everything to me,” Jordan said. Jordan insisted during a press conference that the weekend wasn’t just about him, but he was clearly the star before a crowd that included former teammates Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman. “He makes one big shot and everybody thinks he’s kind of

cool,” Stockton joked. “I don’t get it.” Jordan cried before beginning his acceptance speech, then entertained the crowd with memories of any slights that inspired him to get to basketball’s birthplace: ■ The coach who cut him from the varsity as a North Carolina schoolboy. “I wanted to make sure you understood: You made a mistake, dude.” ■ Isiah Thomas, who allegedly orchestrated a “freezeout” of Jordan in his first All-Star game.

“I wanted to prove to you, Magic (Johnson), Larry (Bird), George (Gervin), everybody that I deserved (to be there) just as much as anybody else, and I hope over the period of my career I’ve done that without a doubt.” ■ Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy — Jordan called him Pat Riley’s “little guy” — who accused Jordan of “conning” players by acting friendly toward them, then attacking them in games. “I just so happen to be a See Hall, page 25

2 tennis players advance to semis Steamboat’s Farny, Richman at No. 3 Luke Graham

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

GRAND JUNCTION

Luke Farny and Callum Richman haven’t been playing together long, but the duo certainly grew up quickly Friday during the opening day of the Western Slope Open in Grand Junction. The Steamboat Springs High School No. 3 doubles team went 2-0 on the day, including a threeset victory against perennial powerhouse Fairview to punch their ticket to today’s semifinals. The tournament begins at 8 a.m. today. “Our first match was pretty easy,” Richman said. “We were intense. We played pretty well in the second one. In the second one, though, we were consistently intense.” In a match that pitted two even teams, Richman and Farny’s intense but relaxed nature proved to be the difference. After winning the first set, 6-4, and dropping the second, 5-7, the two cruised, 6-2, in the third. “By the third set, we were done,” Farny said about the mid-90-degree weather that blanketed players all day. “But in the third, they got slow, and we took advantage of them.” Joining Farny and Richman in the semifinals is No. 1 singles player Jamey Swiggart. Swiggart beat players from Fairview and Grand Junction each in three sets to advance. Swiggart, who battled a sore arm all day, said the hot temperatures helped to loosen him up as the day progressed. “Of course I want to win it,” said Swiggart, who remained undefeated on the season. “It’s great to make it to the semifinals. I have no idea who I am playing (Friday). I just have to play like I did (Friday).” Steamboat had a chance at No. 2 singles with Keegan Burger and No. 1 doubles with Jack Burger and Jeff Lambart to get at least two more spots in the semifinals but faltered down the stretch.

Jeter tops Gehrig Player breaks Yankees hit record Mike Fitzpatrick

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK

Puddles soaked the warning track and ponchos dotted the stands when Derek Jeter stepped to the plate in the third inning, hoping to give the soggy Yankee Stadium crowd a reason for showing up in all this rain. With one of his classic, inside-out swings, Jeter sent a sharp grounder skimming through Jeter the infield. And there it was, the hit that pushed him past Lou Gehrig. Jeter broke the New York Yankees hit record held by Gehrig for more than seven decades on Friday night with an opposite-field single against Baltimore. It gave Jeter 2,722 hits — one more than Gehrig, whose Hall of Fame career was cut short by illness in 1939. The captain kept right on going, too, with an RBI single in the fourth that put New York up 4-1. Jeter left the game after a rain delay in the top of the seventh inning when manager Joe Girardi pulled most of the starters with the Yankees trailing 10-4. Jeter finished the game 2 for 4. Jeter’s record-breaking hit was remarkably similar to the one that tied Gehrig on Wednesday night, a well-struck grounder inside the first-base line. After this one, Yankees players poured out of the dugout and engulfed Jeter at first base with hugs and pats on the back. “For those who say today’s game can’t produce legendary players, I have two words: Derek Jeter. Game in and game out, he just produces,” Yankees owner George Steinbrenner said in a statement. “As historic and significant as becoming the Yankees’ all-time hit leader is, the accomplishment is all the more impressive because Derek is one of the finest young men playing the game today. “That combination of character and athletic ability is something he shares with the previous record holder, Lou Gehrig,” the statement said. Jeter spread his arms wide after rounding first base on his record-breaking hit and gave an emphatic clap as he headed back to the bag.

Yorvit Torrealba hit a threerun double in the ninth inning off closer Heath Bell to lift the Colorado Rockies to a 4-1 win against the San Diego Padres on Friday night. To r r e a l b a ’s bases-loaded hit into the left-center field gap allowed the Rockies to pull FRIDAY’S GAME: out a comeback Rockies 4 win and stay two Padres 1 games behind the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League West. Los Angeles beat the Giants 10-3 at San Francisco. Colorado had just three hits off five Padres pitchers before they reached Bell, the NL coleader with 37 saves, for three runs on two hits and two walks. San Diego was on the verge of handing the Rockies a tough loss in their playoff chase with 20 games left in the season after Jorge De La Rosa walked in the game’s only run in the first inning. But Colorado rebounded

for its eighth straight win as the Rockies raised their record to a major-league best 10-1 in September. Colorado stretched its lead in the wild-card race to 5 1/2 games against the Giants. Bell (5-3), who has four blown saves, gave up a leadoff walk to Todd Helton, who was replaced by Mike McCoy. Brad Hawpe singled with one out before pinchhitter Jason Giambi walked to load the bases. Bell struck out pinch hitter Matt Murton before Torrealba drove a ball into the gap to clear the bases. Paul Phillips added an RBI single off Bell. Rafael Betancourt (3-1) got two outs for the win and Franklin Morales pitched the ninth inning for his sixth save in seven chances. De La Rosa allowed one run on five hits in seven innings. He walked four and struck out eight to set the club single-season record for strikeouts by a lefthander with 170. Edward Mujica made his first career start and allowed two hits in four scoreless innings.

Broncos’ Marshall stays mum THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ENGLEWOOD

Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall declined to comment Friday about his return from a team-imposed suspension, culminating his week of public silence on the matter. “I’m not talking today, sorry,” Marshall said in politely but firmly declining to speak to a reporter. Marshall, who was reinstated Sunday after a nine-day suspension for conduct detrimental to the team, could be subject to a fine for failing to make himself available to reporters at least once during the week of practice leading up to Sunday’s opener at Cincinnati.

Typically, though, the league first sends a letter to the offending player advising him about the NFL regulations mandating his Marshall minimum availability to the media. He could be fined if the behavior persists. Coach Josh McDaniels imposed the suspension after Marshall’s insubordinate antics during practice — he swatted a pass away that he was supposed to catch and walked while the rest of the team ran — became a distraction. But he said Friday he had no complaints since the return of Marshall, who has clashed with the organiza-

tion off and on since the team rebuffed his overtures for a new contract. “He’s had a good week of practice,” McDaniels said. “He’s practiced hard. He’s doing everything we’re asking him to do.” The absence of drama to date in Marshall’s return is being viewed as a positive sign by Shannon Sharpe, formerly a star tight end for the Broncos and a member of consecutive Super Bowl-winning teams in the late 1990s. There may even be a reason behind his refusal to answer questions from reporters this week. “I told him I think he should let his play do his talking,” Sharpe said.

FORT COLLINS

Colorado State coach Steve Fairchild has carried a recurring theme throughout this week of practice. Stop celebrating last week’s upset win against instate rival Colorado and concentrate on upcoming opponent Weber State. “We certainly can’t rest on that win,” Fairchild has warned his team. “The worst thing we can do is turn around (today) and be walking out of our locker

room 1-1.” Colorado State (1-0) hosts Weber State (0-1), an FCS team from the Big Sky Conference. “We aren’t to the point we can take anyone lightly,” Fairchild said. “Weber State is certainly a capable opponent, and we will need to play our best (today) to be in the game.” The Rams don’t have to look any further than Weber State’s starting running back, Trevyn Smith, and starting quarterback, Cameron Higgins, to realize Fairchild’s concerns. Smith,

a 5-foot-9, 210-pound senior is the school’s career rushing leader with 4,125 yards. Higgins, a junior has thrown for 6,758 yards and 56 touchdowns in two-plus years with the Wildcats. He trails only Jamie Martin, a former St. Louis Rams quarterback, for the career lead there in both categories. “I know he put up some numbers last year and he has a group of skill players that are formidable,” Fairchild said. “We are going to do the best we can to get some pressure on the quarterback and try and turn the ball over.”

It was a big night for Hayden High School senior Rachael Koehler. The rest of the Tigers volleyball team can’t say the same. Despite Koehler recording big kill and block numbers in both of the team’s Friday night matches, the squad lost to Vail Christian and Meeker, falling to

each in four games. Hayden coach Greg Johnson said inconsistent play doomed his team. “We lost on Tuesday to Rifle in five close games, but we just didn’t come out with the same fire tonight,” he said. “We didn’t have that same passion. Meeker beat Hayden, 25-20, 13-25, 25-21 and 25-20. The score from the Vail Christian game wasn’t available at press time. Koehler had 11 kills and 13 blocks against Meeker and added 10 kills and 10 more blocks in the four-game loss to Vail Christian. “She played really, really well and has been playing really well,” Johnson said. “But the rest of the team didn’t play very well.”

Koehler’s sister, Erin Koehler, had 10 blocks against Meeker, and Ashlee Doolin picked up eight kills in that match. The team (0-3) now will have to pick itself back up and look for its first win of the season today. Hayden travels to Plateau Valley to open its league slate. “We’re looking for our first win. None of these losses have been in the league, and hopefully we’ll get a league win,” Johnson said. “We are working on playing much more consistent volleyball and playing the same way with the same intensity from the first game to the last. That’s our No. 1 goal right now.” — To reach Joel Reichenberger, call 871-4253 or e-mail jreichenberger@steamboatpilot.com

Chase suffered food poisoning Tennis continued from 17 4-1, in the second set before letting his emotions get the best of him. Jack Burger and Lambart lost a hard three-set match to Fairview. Mirko Erspamer, playing No. 3 singles, may have had the match of the tournament. Erspamer lost his first set against a player from Heritage, 6-1, and was down, 5-1, in the second before rallying to win. “You have to get rid of all your emotions and focus on your game,” Erspamer said about the match. “I had to make sure I made him work for

every point. I wasn’t going to give it to him easy.” The No. 2 doubles team faced some unfortunate circumstances. Vladan Chase battled a bout of food poisoning and was unable to play. In his place, Lev Tsypen and Max Roder went 0-2. The No. 4 doubles team of Kyle Rogers and Gabri Erspamer lost their first match to Cherry Creek before picking up a win against Aspen. “Each kid got their fill of great competition,” coach John Aragon said. “It’s an eye-opener, but it’s also a goal-setter.” — To reach Luke Graham, call 871-4229 or e-mail lgraham@steamboatpilot.com

Toledo next faces Ohio State Colorado continued from 16 the game to an end just before 1 a.m. local time. Rockets running back DaJuane Collins ran for 162 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries. Opelt finished with 319 yards passing a week after throwing for 423 yards in a loss at Purdue. He completed 15 of 23 and ran for 109 yards. His 27-yard run with 36 seconds left in the first half put the Rockets up 23-3, and he opened the second half with a 26-yard

TD pass to Kenny Stafford. The Rockets now are 3-0 at home against the Big 12, having beaten Kansas in 2006 and Iowa State in ’07. Toledo, which plays Ohio State next week in Cleveland, has seven victories against teams from BCS conferences in the last nine seasons, including last year’s win at Michigan. It’s the first time the Buffaloes have lost to a Mid-American Conference school. They beat Kent State in 1977 and Miami in 2007.

Jordan caused ceremony to be moved Hall continued from 16 friendly guy. I get along with everybody, but at the same time, when the light comes on, I’m as competitive as anybody you know.” ■ The media who said Jordan, though a great player, would never win like Bird or Johnson. “I had to listen to all that, and that put so much wood on that fire that it kept me each and every day trying to get better as a basketball player.” ■ Lastly, Utah’s Bryon Russell. Jordan recalled meeting Russell while he was retired and playing minor league baseball in 1994 — and with Sloan looking on in horror — told of how Russell insisted he could have covered him if Jordan was still playing. Russell later got two cracks at Jordan in the NBA finals, and he was the defender when Jordan hit the clinching shot to win the 1998 title. “From this day forward, if I ever see him in shorts, I’m coming at him.” The enshrinement ceremony took place at Springfield’s Symphony Hall because Jordan was too big for the Hall of Fame. The move to the other building allowed for a crowd of about

2,600, more than double what the Hall can accommodate. Robinson was enshrined first on Friday before a large San Antonio contingent that included teammates Tim Duncan and Avery Johnson, and coaches Larry Brown and Gregg Popovich. Stockton told the Spurs that his running mate, Karl Malone, was the best power forward, not Duncan. Stringer, the first coach to lead three different teams to the Final Four, still couldn’t believe a coal miner’s daughter had made it, calling it the “most unusual,

unexpected thing in the world.” She thanked her players — “basketball daughters” — and praised her 2007 Rutgers team for the class and dignity it showed after the racially insensitive comments made by Don Imus. “I know that I stand here on the shoulders of so many,” Stringer said. Sloan also thanked his players, his former coaches from high school to the NBA and late Utah owner Larry Miller for sticking with him even during the team’s bad years.

take a play off, they would score.” Delta cut the Steamboat lead to 17-13 at halftime thanks to a 59-yard touchdown run and 31yard touchdown pass by senior quarterback Austin Watson. Out of halftime, however, Steamboat’s adjustments seemed to work. Sailors quarterback Austin Hinder found Jack Spady from 40 yards out midway through the third quarter to put Steamboat up, 23-13. After two penalties thwarted Delta’s ensuing drive, Steamboat used two plays to go 24 yards, capped off by a Joe Dover 3-yard run to make the score 29-13. “We got a little ahead of ourselves and relaxed too quick,” Finch said. “This is how we need to win these games throughout the season. I think we came out and didn’t execute like we could, but did some good things in the second half.” Watson hit his second touchdown of the game on the next Delta possession to cut the lead to 29-19 with 9 minutes, 50 seconds left in the game. But that’s when Steamboat had its biggest drive of the young season. The Sailors took 17 plays and 6:41 off the clock on their next drive, including
