STATE BUDGET WOES
Officials hope to save armory By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor
While some cities across the state are looking at possible uses for Alabama National Guard armories that will be vacated soon, Alexander City officials are still hoping that they can convince officials to keep Alexander City’s Mac W. Speaks Armory in their plans. Since Guard officials announced on Oct. 1 that they intend to close a total of 19 armories across the state including the local facility near the airport, local officials have been working behind the scenes.
Mayor Charles Shaw said. “But we have been working with our local legislators and we hope to go to Montgomery and meet with officials to see if they may reconsider. “I understand that the building is old and it may need some repairs. But there are a lot of ways to get those things done. “The armory has a big economic impact on our city. One weekend of each month it brings a lot of people to the area and they spend money here. Before we start looking Cliff WIlliams / The Outlook at what to do with a building next, we just “I’ve seen where some cities are looking want to make sure that we have done all we at acquiring the buildings,” Alexander City See ARMORY, Page 5 Soldiers from the 214th Military Police march into their deployment ceremony. Officials are working to save their armory.

he cat from the black cat and rabbit duo who frequented downtown Alexander City and the dumpsters of area restaurants is recovering at Lake Martin Animal Shelter and is on the way to being ready for adoption. It spent a week at an Alexander City Veterinary Clinic being treated for what appeared to be an upper respiratory infection. From there, the cat was taken to the shelter where it has undergone treatment and observation for about two weeks now. “One of our newest board members saw the cat and he was in a bad way,” Shelter Director Mia Chandler said. “She was able to get it care, but wasn’t going to be able to keep it. But he’s much better now.” The animal odd couple gained local notoriety after they were seen occasionally, late nights and early mornings, in the downtown area. Their camaraderie alone was unusual enough, given the conventional image of a cat as predator to all things small and furry. But it went from unusual to conspiratorial when the cat was seen picking lettuce out of a dumpster for the rabbit below. For weeks after the story ran, The See CATS, Page 9

DEAR ABBY: My daughter has been in a lesbian relationship for 14 years. They recently took me to lunch and informed me that her partner, “Nicole,” is in the process of transitioning to a male. Nicole has now legally changed her name to “Nick” and has begun hormone treatments. They have been going to counseling for the past six months. Since Nick began the transition, I have seen him three times. Last week when I was visiting, I accidentally called Nick by the wrong pronoun, “she” instead of “he” a couple of times. I was either immediately corrected or ignored until I realized I had used the wrong word. It hurt my feelings. After I got home I sent Nick a text to apologize and explain that it would take time for me to get used to saying “Nick” and referring to him as a he. I told them their correcting me bothered me. All weekend I could tell they were irritated with me, and I felt it was uncalled for.

What do you say? Am I wrong to feel hurt that they haven’t given me a chance to get used to the new name? -MARGARET IN MISSISSIPPI DEAR MARGARET: Adjusting to gender reassignment takes time for all concerned. As your letter illustrates, there are often more people involved than the individual making the change. It seems only natural that you would need some time to adjust.

Your daughter and her partner were right to correct you for your slip of the tongue, and it wasn’t rude for them to do so. How else is a person to

DEAR ABBY: Recently, 12 of us women from a retirement home in Dayton were having lunch at a local steakhouse. As we were digging in our purses for money and coupons, our server informed us that we did not owe anything for our bills! He said a gentleman who had been seated nearby had taken care of what we owed. It seems the day we were there was his late mother’s birthday. There are some very good people in this world. We want him to know how very much we appreciated his kind gesture, and we have pledged to “pay it forward” whenever we can. -- BLESSED IN OHIO DEAR BLESSED: I don’t know who originated this saying, but your letter certainly proves the truth of it: A good deed is like a pebble thrown into a pond; its ripples continue ever outward. Thank you for an upper of a letter.
DEAR ABBY: We were visiting our son and daughterin-law last weekend. When I had to use the facilities downstairs, I told her the hand towel was missing. I had used that bathroom the day before. Guess what she said? “Well, that’s what pants are for.” Abby, she wasn’t joking! We see them only twice a year because we live five hours away. Could they be short of money or what? Should I send her some hand towels? -- WET HANDS IN WISCONSIN DEAR WET HANDS: By all means.

Camp Hill council discovers IRS debt is growing By Cliff Williams Outlook Staff Writer
Camp Hill council members discovered at Monday’s council meeting that the payments the town has been making to the IRS for back taxes do not cover the interest and fees. “Our payments are not covering the interest and fees,” Mayor Danny Evans said. “Our balance is still going up.” The town agreed to pay the IRS about $5,600 a month but interest and fees total over $5,900 a month. After looking over the statement, Council Member Anthony Pogue discovered the town is being charged over $400 a month for a failure to pay penalty. “Here it is,” Pogue said. “They are charging us for failure to pay.” After looking over it Council Member Ezell Smith read aloud that the charges stem from tax years 2006, 2007 and 2012. The council decided to let town attorney Ben Hand contact the IRS on their behalf to figure out some better arrangements for the town. Council member Will York asked for a 60-day moratorium on vendor licenses for events in town
with the Camp Hill Pacer event coming up this weekend. “With the mix up that we had at the last event, I think we need to have a moratorium to clear up what we want and need from vendors,” York said. “With the Pacer event this weekend, I think it is too late to make it clear.” The council voted in favor of the moratorium. The Camp Hill Town Council also: • asked the organizers of the So-Phi Block Party to come back when they had better plans for financial arrangements and security for a possible event at the old Camp Hill Airport in July of 2016. • approved payment of the bills. • approved minutes of the Oct. 5 meeting. • extended the deadline 90 days for a MLK Drive property owner to cleanup under the nuisance property ordinance and required the owner to come back in 30 days to report progress. • is allowing photographs of trophies and memorabilia from Edward Bell to be made and posted on the EBHS Alumni Facebook page. Camp Hill’s next council meeting is scheduled for Nov. 2 at 6 p.m.

Opinion
Rye’s departure will leave a void
A
nn Rye’s announcement Tuesday that she will be leaving her position as president and CEO of the Alexander City Chamber of Commerce is one we did not want to hear. Rye has done a superlative job since she joined the chamber 34 months ago. Her list of accomplishments is beyond impressive. She has created the city’s largest event, the Alexander City Sun Festival, and made it a big success. She led the effort for the chamber to raise over $1 million to expand its staff, attract new retail and commercial businesses and support existing local businesses. She has worked tirelessly to bring new retail business to town – and has a number of large projects in the works that we believe will result in hundreds of new retail jobs in the coming year. We believe her success is instrumental in USAmeriBank’s offer to partner with the chamber to establish a business incubator in Alexander City. Most of all, Rye has brought a breath of fresh air into our community. Her can-do spirit, her willingness to work constantly at her job, her belief in the future of Alexander City has helped our community embark on a recovery that is bringing new hope to every business and citizen who lives here. Rye is quick to say that many people have worked together to achieve each of these accomplishments. That is true. It is also true that she has been the spark and the driving force behind many of Alexander City’s recent success stories. Rye told the chamber board that she has been blessed by the opportunity to be chamber president, that it was a perfect match between her skills and the requirements of the job she had no previous experience doing, and it allowed her to grow into the best job she’s ever had. She wept as she told the board how difficult the decision was to leave the chamber because she loves her job and the people of Alexander City. We would like to tell Ann that Alexander City has been blessed by her efforts here, that she leaves our community in a better state than when she arrived, that we celebrate her successes while we mourn her departure and that we wish her the best in her new ventures in Ohio.

Parties jockey before Clinton’s Benghazi testimony
R
epublicans and Democrats deny accusations of partisanship in the congressional Benghazi investigation, while both parties jockey to position themselves to best advantage regarding Hillary Clinton’s pending testimony. If Hillary is pilloried, it’s because of evidence only. This was initially supposed to be a closed-door hearing with only Rep. Trey Gowdy, chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi, and Hillary Clinton. It would have been an historically significant event, marking the first time Hillary had been behind a closed door with a man since she was in Arkansas. But the hearing will be open to the public. So, unless Hillary hits her head on something again, it looks like we’ll have a hearing Thursday. She is now trying to dismiss this damaging investigation, calling the panel “a partisan arm of the RNC.” The Clintons have a long history of accusing their accusers, dating back to Bill’s dalliances with women in Arkansas. Hillary blames the women he slept with and then runs as a candidate in favor of empowering women. She also has been able to get away with charging colleges $250,000 per speech to talk about income inequality while she rails against the high cost of college. The hypocrisy of the Clintons is boundless. Just because something is political, it doesn’t mean the claims are untrue. Washington, if not politically driven, would do nothing. For example, Watergate and the investigation it spawned were politically motivated. The Benghazi committee’s investigation is important because cables and emails prove that the attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, was predicted, then ignored – and four Americans died. Our defense forces were ordered to stand down. Afterward,
RON HART Columnist
in the heat of Obama’s re-election efforts, a lie fabricated by the administration and spread by Hillary Clinton blamed this attack on a YouTube video. The video producer was jailed. In short, the White House admits mistakes were made but maintains that no one made them. All the committee wants is to learn what happened so that it can be prevented from happening again. The investigation’s disappointing cost of over $4 million is due to the obstinacy of Hillary’s State Department and the inefficiency of Washington. Hillary erased email evidence sought for this investigation. If you or I had done that while under investigation, we’d be in the big house, not the White House. Hillary deleted 30,000 emails on the sneaky private server she should not have been using in the first place. When she did – slowly – release emails, she gave up her spam, promotions and junk folders. The obfuscating Clinton motto has always been, “If two wrongs don’t make a right, then try three wrongs.” Email security is important. When President Obama would not give up his BlackBerry, the NSA’s concern that email leaks would harm our nation was so profound that it employed more than 20 techies to modify and encrypt the device. And now we learn that our CIA director’s AOL account just got hacked by a 17-year-old stoner. Well into the investigation, Hillary lied by emphatically telling CNN that she was never subpoenaed to testify on Benghazi. Republicans then produced the subpoena. You might
forget a parking ticket from 2006, or a Groupon email, but no one forgets getting a federal subpoena. Democrats took a lot of hits during the Benghazi aftermath, but Obama was actually helped. With the IRS targeting political opponents, covering up the Benghazi disaster by saying it was caused by a video caused folks to stop comparing Obama to Jimmy Carter and start comparing him to Richard Nixon. By then, Obama’s poll numbers were so far down that he contemplated killing Osama bin Laden again. Obama, a.k.a. Sgt. Schultz from “Hogan’s Heroes,” said he “knew nothing” about Benghazi. This is plausible, since he was busy not knowing anything about Lois Lerner’s IRS targeting scandal, the AP and Fox News reporter federal spying scandal, the Obamacare website debacle, Solyndra, and the NSA collecting data on Americans. There is no limit to what Obama does not know about his own administration’s failings. Hillary’s defense to this investigation – where she has been caught red-handed in illegal activity (ask Gen. Petraeus) – is that the investigation arose only as she was thinking about running for president. The only surprise would be if Hillary ever admitted to thinking about anything but running for president. With the email/illegalserver discovery, the probe is widening like Chris Christie even after lap band weightreduction surgery. I said early on that this thing could be another Watergate and could reach as high up in the Obama administration as Dennis Rodman.

Reader pens “Why can anyone get a gun” in wake of gun debate Dear Editor, There has been much written about gun control in our country recently. I was hoping to share my poem titled “Why Can Anyone Get A Gun,” with your readers. Thank you for the opportunity to have a chance to have my poem published in the Outlook. “Why Can Anyone Get a Gun?” Anyone can get a gun? Mental or not mental, still guns are detrimental – killing people. Like anything else, they can be used and abused, by those who have a short fuse. Yet gun control is an issue that we must defuse. So many are confused and sick causing many to die so quick. Regardless of religion, age or race – guns erase – and don’t discriminate. A bullet has but one name, Anybody, anywhere and at anytime and that’s
pain – to see someone slain. Rather innocent or guilty, guns leave many lives filthy. When someone dies, a mother cries – and death we internalize. While it is the same for the predator, who takes life in the form of murder. Now although every man and woman who owns guns will purposely unjustly kill, Yet the ways of the world are so sick twisted and ill. While others are labeled crazy, because they take a pill. Still if we can’t get control of the gun control issue, Then many more will die due to the misuse of a gun. So if you use a gun, please use it with responsibility and care, In other words guns are making America more of a living nightmare. Runas C. Powers III Alexander City

can to let them know how much they are wanted and needed here.” The Alabama National Guard facilities Master Plan meant the closing and consolidation of 15 armories between fiscal years 2014 to 2017. Those armories are in Albertville and Monroeville, both of which are already closed, plus Aliceville, Brantley, Camden, Elba, Fort Deposit, Geneva, Hartford, Jackson, Jasper, Scottsboro, Sheffield, Sylacauga and Vernon. Six more facilities including Huntsville, Winfield, Alexander City, Demopolis, Marion and Eufaula were added to the list. At the time of the announcement, Alabama National Guard Public Information Officer Lt. Col. Shannon Hancock
said the facility ranked low on a scale that included cost to operate and maintain the armory, condition of the armory and the armory’s ability to meet mission support. She said that the 61-year-old facility is in need of a lot of upgrades. “The Alexander City armory was built in 1954 and is in the range of our oldest armories, needing a large amount of upgrades and modernization,” Hancock said. No exact timeline for closure has been determined, but at the time of the announcement Hancock said that use in the public sector is still possible. Shaw said he hopes that guard leadership can be convinced of the importance of the unit and its location in Alexander City.

Do you have available jobs? Call 256.277.4219 to let others know about job opportunities at your business.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll remain focused on an achievement thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about to happen. You often use your unpredictability to promote important causes. You might feel pressured by a higher-up or someone you care a lot about. Take time to relax. Tonight: Where your friends are. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH You continue to take charge of a matter and carry it to fulĂ&#x201E;llment. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be willing to work carefully to achieve this goal, even though some of the steps you need to take seem silly or petty. Take stock of your energy levels in the afternoon. Tonight: Do something just for you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Detach and take a complete overview of what is happening around you. You could be surprised by the difference in your perspective once you create some distance. Your imagination is likely to create exactly what you want. Tonight: Consider starting your weekend early. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH You could be surprised by the behavior of someone who often appears to be digniĂ&#x201E;ed. Defer to others if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re feeling confused or tired. If you feel lucky, buy a lottery ticket. Be careful with wild risk-taking! Tonight: Go along with someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Your ability to initiate might not have the impact it normally does. Others seem to be quicker at taking action right now. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry; you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be excluded. You could choose to create some uproar if you want more control, but it would not be wise. Tonight: All smiles. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Curb a tendency to go overboard. A partner could surprise you, as he or she will act in an unexpected way. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to control a child or loved one. You can choose only your own path; let this person decide which way is best for him or her. Tonight: Clear out an errand.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Your ingenuity seems to make others demand less, which allows you to complete a project. Avoid working from home, as there could be a collision of wills. Refuse to get into a spat or power play; that type of interaction wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be helpful. Tonight: Let the kid in you out. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You could be too tired for words. You might want to understand where a family member is coming from. This person might be asking for one thing, but really wants another. Refuse to have an argument. Be patient. Tonight: Get some extra R and R before the weekend. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Speak your mind, and get past a problem by having a discussion. The unexpected could occur when you focus on a creative project or a new friend. Open up to greater give-and-take with friends and associates. Tonight: Let your hair down, and start the weekend early. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Curb any spending until you have more facts about an expenditure. You might want to do some price comparison as well as make sure your checkbook is balanced. You will want to spruce up your professional or community image. Tonight: A must appearance. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Use today to the max. You are likely to receive positive responses, with the exception of one person who generally is quite controlling. Detach from a heated situation, and avoid frivolous squabbles. This matter will calm down given time. Tonight: Head out for live music. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Follow your instincts. As you test the water, you might want to maintain a low proĂ&#x201E;le. Be careful with your funds. You easily could miscount your change or make a mistake somewhere in your budget. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to reach out for a loved one. Tonight: Feel free to do nothing.

Cats Outlook received calls from residents who had spotted the two together. Others called wanting to know if the animals needed care or a home. It now looks like one of the two will get a chance for a forever home soon. At this point the catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s primary symptom is congestion, said Chandler. She said that the recovery time is uncertain and depends on the animal, sometimes only taking a few days and others weeks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will be doing shots Thursday and then it will likely be about a week before he is ready for a new home,â&#x20AC;? Chandler said. The cat was determined to be male and approximately 6 months old. He does not have a name yet. Chandler said this was deliberate and that he will be named when he is made available for adoption, which will be after vaccinations and being introduced into the general shelter population. Chandler said that it is not at the point of being what she called â&#x20AC;&#x153;a superaffectionate lap cat.â&#x20AC;? But, she said that she thinks it absolutely could be with time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is skittish, but I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say feral,â&#x20AC;? Chandler said. She said that there is a fine line between feral and a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Garfieldâ&#x20AC;? cat, and that he is not a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Garfieldâ&#x20AC;? yet but he can be. Initially, those who saw the picture thought the cat may have belonged to Annette Lynch who lives across from Carlosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Mexican Restaurant where the two were often seen.
Event event build around Chair-ish Alexander City are growing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Rally in the Alley has gotten so big that we are considering moving it to a larger area next year,â&#x20AC;? Howell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We estimate around 200-250 people this year attended. And Saturday morning there was perfect weather for the Farmers Market. There again we had an even larger crowd this year than last. Our sales overall for the event saw an increase of 33 percent over last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.â&#x20AC;? Also drawing record crowds were the events of the Fall Festival, including games for kids and the ever-popu-

But after getting a better look at the picture, the cat was too small to be Lynchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s black cat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just glad some found it and was able to get it some help,â&#x20AC;? Lynch said. At this point there has been no word on the rabbit, but one unconfirmed theory is that the rabbit had found a home in a closed in area outside the restaurant. And as for the unusual pairing Chandler said that the she was not surprised at all. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Animals are a lot more accepting of other as long as there is no predation there. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty amazing,â&#x20AC;? said Chandler. Wait, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even more warm and fuzzy news from the shelter. Remember the cat that was rescued on July 19 from the under-carriage of a car outside the Alexander City Fire Department Headquarters? The cat that Chandler named Fuego is still at the shelter and available for adoption now. The black male cat with white markings on his paws has come a long way, according to Chandler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When he came in he was a firecracker,â&#x20AC;? Chandler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thought he was literally a wildcat. But he has settled down so much. Look at him now â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he is so sweet. He will make someone a great pet.â&#x20AC;?

lar Great Pumpkin Roll, said Howell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Fall Festival crowd doubled this year. The Great Pumpkin Roll was exciting and the added games this year made for a happy crowd. We want to thank Russell Lands and Stanley and Linda Ingram for providing the horse and buggy rides downtown. The kids loved the horses and totally enjoyed this treat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All in all it was a special event that had participation from all areas of the local and lake communities. We appreciate everyone coming out and enjoying the beautiful fall weather and this fun event.â&#x20AC;?

Tigers battle for playoff seeding with Handley By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
With a spot in the Class 4A State Playoffs secure, the Dadeville Tigers go into Friday’s game looking to put themselves in a better position. The Dadeville Tigers (4-4, 3-2 in Class 4A-Region 3) will travel to face the Handley Tigers (7-1, 4-1 in Class 4A-Region 3) on Friday at 7 p.m. Dadeville Coach Richard White said last week’s 50-27 win over Elmore County was a big one for Dadeville. “It was good. We started off kind of slow, but finally picked it up in the second half and ended up playing a complete four quarters of football, which we hadn’t done all year,” White said. “It was a big win for us because it got us in the playoffs. We lose that ballgame and it’s over. Our kids responded and I was proud of them for responding in that situation. They understood the significance of that game, so they took that as a challenge and brought home a win.” But Dadeville’s focus is now shifted to the Handley Tigers, and they won’t be facing the same Handley team that finished 3-7 in 2014. Under new coach Larry Strain, the Tigers from Roanoke have become winners again and have changed their style of play. “They’ve got a new head coach and he runs a multiple attack offensively – he’ll get in the I-formation, the double wing and the spread,” White said. “They will give you a lot of formations that you have to prepare for. We’ve been working on that all week trying to get our kids in the right places formationwise. They throw the ball more than they have, but they’re still a good running team that’s big up front. Our work’s cut out for us.” And on defense, White said Handley is good at stopping the run and pass. “Defensively, they run a 4-4 look with a three-deep secondary, but they kind of bracket with outside linebackers defending the No. 2 receiver,” White said. “They’re good at what they do and they have two inside linebackers that will strike you, so it’s going to be a challenge for us.” Friday’s game will be another important showdown for Dadeville, as both sets of Tigers are battling for playoff positioning. “This game Friday night has more significance where if Handley wins they finish second (in the region), but if we win we finish third and they finish fourth,” White said. “There’s a lot riding on this game as far as everything is concerned with travel and home games and those sort of things. It’s another challenge for us. Handley has a really good football team and they’re 7-1. They’ve improved a whole lot from last year.” While they are still battling injuries, White said Dadeville is up to the challenge. “Us dealing with the injuries we’ve had this year, this is probably the worst injury situation I’ve had in my 16 years of coaching,” White said. “But our kids have had some good weeks of practice and they’re looking forward to the challenge of going up there and somehow finding a win.” But in order to give Handley its second loss of the year, White said his team must sustain drives and get a few big plays defensively. “We’re going to have to get a few breaks. We can’t go three-and-out and keep having to put the defense on the field,” White said. “We’ve got to get some three-and-outs on defense and force some turnovers. We had one pick last week and left five on the field. We could have had at least five interceptions. We’ve got to win the turnover battle because we’re not good enough with what we’re doing right now to give the ball away. We’ve got to run the clock, score some points, get some stops and play decent defense.”
After finishing as the runnerup in Tuesday’s Class 4A-Area 5 Tournament at Eclectic, the Dadeville Lady Tigers are going to the Super Regionals in Montgomery. The No. 3 seed Lady Tigers opened Tuesday’s tournament with a 3-0 win over No. 2 seed Holtville before falling 3-0 to No. 1 seed and host Elmore County. “They did a phenomenal job against Holtville and I think after that they were just on an emotional rollercoaster and kind of had a letdown against Elmore County,” said Dadeville Coach Magan Ford. “They made themselves a tough road because we had not beaten Holtville or Elmore County in the regular season, but they didn’t let that keep them down. They came out and played the best game of the year against Holtville, so I was very proud of them for that.” Ford said the Lady Tigers have been led by strong play from the team’s two seniors. “Once again, our seniors have come through the entire season and led this very young team,” Ford said. “We only have two seniors – Hallie Cox and De’Shana Johnson. Tuesday night, De’Shana probably played her best two games I’ve ever seen her play in three years.” The Holtville win was enough to send Dadeville (10-6) to the Class 4A Super Regionals in Montgomery at the Cramton Bowl Multiplex. Dadeville will open the Super Regionals on Friday vs. Thomasville at 3 p.m. Ford said the Lady Tigers are focusing more on being consistent than preparing for a specific opponent. “We’ve told them to never quit and stay consistent. That’s our thing, be consistent,” Ford said. “It doesn’t matter who we’re playing against – it’s a faceless opponent at this point

– we just have to stay consistent. That’s what we practiced on today (Wednesday) for several hours and that’s what we’re going to practice on Thursday. We’re telling the girls to stay consistent the entire time because that’s been our problem all year, so that’s what we’re going to focus on.” Ford added that the Lady Tigers are excited for the Super Regionals, and that the trip to Montgomery will
prove to be a valuable experience. “Out of our starting six, we’ve only got three that have ever been to the regionals,” Ford said. “So, just being there and having the experience to just see how loud it is and how fast it is with so much action on one court, as well as playing with the best of the best is only going to make us better. It’s only good for the future.”
Michigan-Michigan St. finish no Kick Six
L
et’s get this out of the way: the Kick Six is still the reigning king of great college football finishes. But what happened Saturday evening in Ann Arbor, Mich., is arguably the next-best thing (no disrespect to Stanford-Cal). For those in hibernation for several days, here’s what went down: Facing fourth down, Michigan led 23-21 with 10 seconds to play and Wolverine punter Blake O’Neill dropped the snap from center, then inexplicably slapped the ball back into the air. Michigan State’s Jalen Watts-Jackson scooped it up at the Wolverine 38 and raced for the game-winning touchdown. Pandemonium. Shock. You know, the same emotions the swept the Heart of Dixie after Chris Davis returned Alabama’s missed field goal on the last play for 109 yards in 2013. Michigan-Michigan State might be in-state and all that, but c’mon, it’s nothing like the Iron Bowl. Michigan’s Iron Bowl is next month against Ohio State anyway. The fate of the season wasn’t exactly on the line for either the Spartans or Wolverines. It’s October and there’s so much more football to play. National championship hopes were clearly at stake in the 2013 Iron Bowl, traditionally the season-finale for both schools.
But the Spartans’ scoop and score had one thing the Kick Six did not. It comJOE pletely changed the MCADORY winning outcome, Sports and that’s pretty cool. Columnist Before Alabama’s gazillion-yard field goal attempt with one second to play, the teams were tied. The ball would fall short and the game would be decided in overtime, right? Michigan State was left for dead. Once Michigan punted the ball, the Spartans might have had time for an 80-yard Hail Mary. Even then, a lateral or two would have been involved. Before that play, the odds of Michigan State winning were completely off the charts.
Quick kicks
Quarterback comparison: Many speculated who Auburn would start at quarterback before the Tigers’ 30-27 win last Thursday at Kentucky. Sean White started his third-consecutive game and performed well, so there should be no speculation this week at Arkansas. How do White and former starter Jeremy Johnson compare statistically? Both have completed 43 passes. However, it took White 65 attempts to get there, compared to Johnson’s 72. Johnson has thrown six interceptions, which cost him the job. White has thrown one. Johnson, however has thrown five touchdowns
and ran for two more. White has no touchdowns. Yardage-wise, White has 551 to Johnson’s 473. Sure, this is stat-regurgitation, but it was somewhat necessary for this position. Advantage: White. Playoff Projection: Ohio State, Alabama, Clemson and Baylor. Lurking behind are Michigan State, LSU, Florida State and TCU. Be careful: If you’re unbeaten LSU, it’s hard not to have your sights set on the Nov. 7 matchup at Bryant-Denny Stadium in what figures to be the SEC West title game – a game that could draw similar hype that the 2011 regular-season showdown did. But before the Bayou Bengals get wrapped up in Bama fever, they can’t overlook Saturday’s opponent, Western Kentucky. The Hilltoppers would be unbeaten if not for a three-point loss last month at Indiana. I’m not calling for the upset. I’m just saying this might get interesting. Home sweet home? Texas A&M just spent $450 million refurbishing Kyle Field. Someone should tell the university board of regents that the Aggies are just 5-8 at home in SEC games since joining the conference in 2012.

AHSAA approves pitch count rule beginning in 2017 season Marvin Chou AHSAA.com
The Alabama High School Athletic Association Central Board of Control unanimously approved changing the current pitching rule for baseball from innings pitched to a pitch count, beginning with the 2017 AHSAA baseball season. The action was taken at the Central Board of Control quarterly meeting at the AHSAA office Wednesday. Lee Gann, head baseball coach at Mountain Brook High School and the chairman of the AHSAA
Baseball Coaches Committee, asked the Board to adopt the change. The Baseball Coaches Committee was unanimous in its recommendation, Gann said. Alabama becomes the first state association in the NFHS’s Section 3 to adopt the pitch count as a way to regulate arm safety
and becomes one of the first in the nation. The current AHSAA Pitching Rule, adopted in 1989, states that pitchers can pitch up to 14 innings in one week but must rest three calendar days once pitching seven innings in one day or makes two appearances over consecutive days. The Pitch Count Rule adopted will require a varsity pitcher to rest three calendar days after throwing 76 to 120 pitches in one day. The maximum pitches allowed for a juniorvarsity pitcher will be 100 and for junior high or middle school 85.
