Liberals…You either have to love them, or hate them

$

An old high school friend of mine, now living in Snoqualmie, Washington, is an all-out liberal. We spar online occasionally. Of course, she hates President Trump and about the only thing we agree upon is the care of animals.

She recently sent me a message defining a liberal:
1. lib’er-al–Possessing or manifesting a free and generous heart; bountiful. 2. Appropriate and/or fitting for a broad and enlightened mind. 3. Free from narrowness, bigotry or bondage to authority or creed…Any person who advocates liberty of thought, speech or action. (Webster’s Dictionary)
That all sounds nice, but by the very definition it contradicts itself. It limits liberty of thought, speech, or action, etc to only someone who is a liberal. By Webster’s definition, a conservative cannot possess any of these characteristics.

I, for one, am a conservative. I believe liberals have the right to free speech as much as those with opposing views.

Last week, demonstrators at UC Berkeley gathered near the campus amid a strong police presence and rallied to show support for free speech and condemn the views of Ann Coulter and her supporters ????
Ann, who has a weekly column in this paper (see page F5) is most definitely a conservative. She was forced to cancel a talk at Berkeley when the University Administration believed her presence would incite violence, not by the conservative/Republican students, but by the liberal manifesting a free and generous heart; bountiful advocates of liberty of thought, speech, or action groups.

In an AP story on the confrontation, it was written that there were those supporters and students on the UC Berkeley campus, many of whom expressed distaste for Coulter’s political views, voicing frustration that she didn’t get to speak and that the university’s reputation as a bastion of tolerance was suffering. Coulter planned to give a speech on illegal immigration.

Following the presidential election, when (see below) Hillary Clinton got her ass kicked, the same ‘liberal’ establishment jumped on the defeat and have continued their tirade against President Trump. This, of course, includes a number of the very liberal media on a daily basis.

So, am I to believe that ‘liberal’ means my way or the highway?

I do not agree with many of the moves and plans of President Trump – but that being said, I also neither agreed with, nor opposed many of the Obama administration plans and goals.

Free thinkers cannot be defined in dictionary terms. Minds change and evolve. Free speech and press is indeed a precious part of our democracy. Without it we decline into pure socialism, and worse. This decline does not happen overnight, but rather in steps, all too often on the very steps of academia.

Shame on UC Berkeley Administration and the students who believe in their definition of liberal.

Liberals, conservatives, you either have to love them, or hate them, but let them speak.

A Silver Anniversary, but no Bronke

$

Hope you have enjoyed the 2017 NFL Draft, or annual Festival of Hope.

Forget the Bills draft mistakes and misses the last two decades for a moment. 2017 is the silver anniversary of one of the league’s worst drafts of all-time.

Picture it: New York City. 1992. The pre-Bill Polian Indianapolis Colts were what the Buffalo Bills have been since Polian left. And in an unprecedented blend of dumb luck and dumber coaching and architecture, the Colts had not only the first pick in the draft, but the SECOND as well.

The Colts had their quarterback of the the future–the brash, but self-entitled Jeff George, who became more John Daly than Johnny Unitas. With George having two years under his belt (in the days when quarterbacks were allowed to season before Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco raised the expectations of rookie passers) the Colts were looking to bolster their defense.

Steve Emtman was an Outland and Lombardi Trophy winner coming off a (disputed) national championship season as the star defensive end at the University of Washington. The 6’4”, 290 pounder accepted the only scholarship he was offered by legendary Huskies coach, Don James, in 1988. He thanked his coach by becoming college football’s defensive version of Tom Brady, earning him College Football Hall-of-Fame honors in 2006.

His NFL legacy isn’t a bust in Canton, however, but just the dreaded “bust” label that overshadows his college achievements. Injuries forced him out of football at only 27.

Of course, there was that cameo alongside Bruce Smith, Emmitt Smith and John Madden in the “Mighty Ducks” rip-off, “Little Giants.”

As mentioned, the Colts did have the No. 2 selection as well–Quentin Coryatt, a linebacker from Texas A&M. He lasted longer in Indy than Emtman and had a few solid seasons, but his Colts career is remembered regretably, as he literally let a Super Bowl appearance slip through his hands.

Coryatt dropped a would-be Neil O’Donnell 50-yard interception return for a touchdown that likely would have sent Jim Harbaugh, Ted Marchibroda and the Colts to the Super Bowl instead of the Steelers (who themselves botched the AFC title game the previous year at home to the Chargers).

After collecting a big contract the following year, a pectoral injury prematurely ended his 1996 season. Coryatt never was never able to fulfill the hope of his draft status.

There are a few other famous names from the 1992 draft that never lived-up to the hype.
Heisman Trophy winner, Desmond Howard, was selected fourth overall by Washington, adding another log to the Heisman Hellfire of eternal waste.(Another Heisman House resident, Ty Detmer was taken that year by the Packers in the NINTH round.) Of course, Howard was selected right after DT Sean Gilbert, who had a solid eleven-year career with four teams, and enjoyed rookie honors and a Pro Bowl appearance.

The “best” player from 1992? Former Bills safety and current NFL “disciplinarian” Troy Vincent, whose career spanned 15 seasons in Miami, Philly, Buffalo and Washington. He was taken seventh from Wisconsin.

Some other notables who found success from the ‘92 draft include tackle Leon Searcy (11th overall, Steelers) former DE Alonzo Spellman (21st, Bears) DE Robert Porcher (26th, Lions, where he spent all 13 of his seasons), WR Jimmy Smith (36th, Cowboys, but enjoyed most of his success with the Jags, finishing his career seventh on the NFL’s reception list) DB Darren Woodson (one pick later by Jimmy Johnson at 37th overall; even Jimmy wiffed in the first round on LB Robert Jones), and LB Levon Kirkland (following Smith and Woodson at 38 with Pittsburgh).

As for the Bills? Notables include Tackle John Fina (27th), DB Matt Darby (if only because of confusion with Ray Bentley’s Darby the Dinosaur children’s book character–139th), seventh round find, Kurt Schulz, (the DB who broke Herschel Walker’s ribs at the Buffalo one-yard line in the 1996 “revenge game” against the Dallas Cowboys), and preseason favorite, WR Chris Walsh, who ended-up starting for the Vikings and helped end the Bills Super Bowl streak in a 1994 Minnesota win at Buffalo (251st, ninth round).

Other former Bills who turned-in lengthy careers are LB Eddie Robinson (remembered best in Buffalo for getting faked by Jets QB Chad Pennington on a touchdown–Oilers, 50th) and fan favorite, and fullback Sam Gash, who spent two tours in Buffalo, earned a Pro Bowl appearance in 1999 as the game’s first back to have never registered a carry in a season, and won a Super Bowl ring with the Ravens in 2000 (selected 205th overall–an 8th round selection).

Other notables from 1992 include DE Marco Coleman (12th, Dolphins), who spent 14 years with six different teams including four disappointing seasons in Miami as their “answer to Bruce Smith.”

Tight End Johnny Mitchell became the first Nebraska Cornhusker to leave school early, taken by the Jets (15th), and came back to the Jets in 1999 after asking Bill Parcells for an opportunity to resurrect his career.
He lasted one day of training camp before leaving in the middle of the night.

The QBs? The Vikings took a flier on some guy named Brad Johnson (227th), who backed-up Casey Weldon at Florida State (Eagles, 102nd). Johnson enjoyed a solid stops in Minnesota and Washington before winning Super Bowl 37 with Tampa Bay, and is arguably that draft’s second-best player.The Giants tripped over Kent Graham in the 8th round, and selected his competition, Dave Brown, in the supplemental draft. The Bills took Matt Rodgers in the 12th (yes, there was a TWELFTH round), the son of former Boston Celtics head coach and NBA player, Jimmy Rodgers.

The top quarterback selected was Andre Ware’s successor at Houston–another run-and-shoot flop, David Klingler (6th), by the Bengals, during their drought between Sam Wyche and Marvin Lewis when almost every Cincy selection was a bust.

Sound familiar? The Bengals, believe it or not, actually drafted worse than the Bills have the last two decades.
Speaking of successors, no quarterback had the bizarre career of Tommy Maddox, who followed-up Troy Aikman at UCLA and was selected by Dan Reeves’ Denver Broncos to eventually succeed John Elway.

There’s a famous draft scene where ESPN’s Joe Theisman wishes Maddox “good luck in the (then) World League” of American Football as the brash draftee laughed the analyst’s suggestion off as a joke.

The joke ended-up on Maddox, whose biggest distinction is being the XFL’s lone MVP after leading the LA Xtreme to the league’s only title after bouncing around the NFL, the Arena League, and a stint selling insurance. However, Maddox would briefly catch-on with the Pittsburgh Steelers to win 2002 Comeback Player of the Year honors before an injury in 2004 paved the way for a rookie named Roethlisberger to take his job in 2004.
Big Ben would pay Maddox back by earning his back-up his only Super Bowl ring a year later.

So if you have your hopes up after this year’s draft, even after the Bills have turned in some annual doozies, remember 1992.

The ONLY year in NFL history with Hall-eligible players that didn’t produce one sure-fire Hall of Famer.
Not one.

Don’t worry, ‘92. 2006 might be the next.

Just goes to show on this annual weekend of hope not to get too excited. Anybody can have a bad draft.

Or in some cases, EVERYBODY can.

Ask A Doc: Spring and Summer Feet

$

Dear Doctor:
How do I prepare my feet for the upcoming summer months as spring is approaching and I am looking to be active?

Dear Reader:
The upcoming months will yield better weather and a more active lifestyle. With that being said, we have to be careful of pain related to the increase activity with our foot and ankle. As we progress out of winter and into spring, we can be more prone to stress fractures in our feet. Low vitamin D levels and lack of activity can mean that your bones may be in a weakened state when starting back to your favorite activity.

If we progress back to activity too quickly or too aggressively, we can develop a stress fracture which will start with swelling and pain without noting any trauma. The pain may progressively get worse the more that the foot in walked on. Pain will be remedied with rest and present upon activity. Should any pain occur, it is always a good idea to be seen by your physician/foot and ankle specialist to stop the problem and treat it before it progresses.

Ways we can solve this problem are by progressing back to activity slowly and with shoes or sneakers that do not have excessive wear. Stretches before activity and after can also be of benefit. Should a stress fracture develop, vitamin D levels should be checked to ensure that these are not low.

Various forms of tendonitis can also develop as we progress back into more activity. The Achilles tendon, located at the back of the foot and ankle, can be a common site. Also, the peroneal tendons, located on the outside of the foot and ankle can be another typical site for activity induced injury. These symptoms will occur with activity and be relieved with rest, but may occur with immediate weight bearing after rest. Swelling may accompany the pain. Anti-inflammatories, ice and rest will help with the pain, but this problem can be remedied in a timely manner if treated. Prolonged inflammation can be a result of a more serious injury to the tendons and more damage can ensue should it not be treated properly and quickly. Ways to prevent various form of tendonitis will be slow progression back into activity with stretching, proper shoes/sneakers, and even inserts to place the foot into the correct position. Stretching should be approached the same way as exercising, with gradual increase in the amount and aggressiveness of the stretching.

Even though we are all enjoying the winter, we are looking forward to the nice weather and outdoor activities. I hope that this information proves helpful and useful into the progression of spring.

Sincerely,
Dr. Paul Stasko, DPM

Red Creek Rams take first place in County Envirothon

$

The Red Creek High School ‘Rams’ team took first place in the 2017 Wayne County Envirothon. Led by teacher, Mr. Joseph Bonanno, the team members included: Joshua Fillingham, Matthew Ubbink, Skyler Eggelston, Gracie Wright, Katie Smith and Tyler Duvall.

For 2017, the Montezuma Audubon Center in Savannah N.Y. hosted the nine teams of students from six high schools across the Wayne County that included: Lyons H.S., Red Creek H.S., Palmyra-Macedon H.S., North Rose -Wolcott H.S. and Wayne Central High School.

Second place was awarded to the Lyons High School team and third place went to North Rose Wolcott.

At the Envirothon, three to five-member teams participate in a series of field station tests that focus on five topic areas of conservation– soils and land use, aquatic ecology, forestry, wildlife, and environmental issues. The 2017 current environmental issue focused on Agricultural Soil and Water Conservation Stewardship. A topic that easily translated across Wayne County because our farmers play a significant role in implementation of soil and water conservation and best management practices to control runoff and improve water quality.

Envirothon is designed to give students the opportunity to learn about environmental issues and natural resources by conducting tests in the field. Often times this experience becomes a lifestyle for students and goes beyond competitions—it encourages students to be actively engaged in the environment around them at all times. Many students move onto careers in the conservation and environmental fields.

The Red Creek Rams will move on to compete at the N.Y. State competition held at the Hobart & William Smith Colleges in Geneva, NY on May 24 & 25th.
