SPORTS
BY RUSS REGAN
It was a wild first week for Major League Baseball. Several more games have been postponed due to the virus. The Marlins and the Phillies have only played three games and none in more than a week. The Braves’ bats have been really good early but will the back end of the rotation give them a chance? We now have seven inning double headers, and it makes sense. We have our answers from college football and it included some big surprises.
Let’s start off with the Braves. It was a good week as they went 5-2, but can they hit enough to overcome the back end of the rotation? A combination of Wright, Toussant, Foltynewicz and Newcomb wasn’t very good to say the least. The foursome went just 23 innings and allowed 24 earned runs. They also walked 18, yet somehow the team is winning. Toussant wasn’t as bad the second time but pitch count got him out of the game after four innings. The week was bizarre for Felty, he was horrible on Monday, a week ago, against Tampa Bay and he was immediately designated for assignment. That means that the team had enough games to trade him or put him on Warriors. They couldn’t deal him so they put him out and every team declined him and the Braves sent him to the alternate camp. That is a shocker for the 2018 all-star. I hope we see top pitching prospect Ian Anderson.
So how are the Braves winning? First of all, the bullpen has been real good. A.J. Minter and Tyler Matzek have been great. In just ten innings they have walked just one and struck out 17. Fred and Soroka have been real good and let’s hope it continues.
The offense has been good but not the “usual suspects”. The top of the order is Acuna, Abbies and Freeman and they have struggled. They’ve had 37 strikeouts in the first ten games. It did look like Acuna was snapping out of it as he had a homer on Saturday and a pair of hits on Sunday.
Where is the offense coming from you ask? Shortstop Dansly Swanson has a pair of homers and 11 RBIs with a .368 average. New outfielder, Marcell Pzuna has three homers and new catcher Travis D’Armond made a huge impact. He had five RBIs on Friday, including a bases loaded double that was the game changer on Friday night.
We have another big rule change, for the year anyway. All double headers are now seven inning games. It looks like there will be a bunch of mess. All minor league double headers are seven inning ones. That’s another rule, along with these rules, that will probably go away after this year. I do like the extra inning rule and I guess it will have a chance to stick around, but I really don’t think so.
The Big 5 College Conferences have made their decisions and I am very surprised. The SEC announced that it will do a ten game conference only schedule with no plus one. That means for the first time since 1924 there will be no Georgia-Georgia Tech game. I really thought you would see a conference plus one schedule especially after the ACC approved the plus one. The season will open September 26 against someone to be determined. On Sunday night, former Bulldog Matt Stafford of the Lions went on the Covid list. This means he has it or has been in contact with someone who’s tested positive. That is different than opting out. He can come back off the Covid list, but once they opt out, their season is over.
More pro football to wrap up and it’s out of the Falcons camp. They signed free agent corner back Darqueze Dennard. He is a former number one draft pick and he played high school ball at Twiggs County. Ironically, he signed with Atlanta the same day Twiggs elected to not play this season due to the virus. The 28 year old will certainly help a very young secondary.

Letter to the editor
Dear editor,
At the edges of north Dodge County, and Bleckley County, sits the rural community of Empire. Once an incorporated township, or city, Empire is, and has been the conduit for travels heading north, south and east for as long as it has been in existence.
To look at Empire as you pass through, you would think it was just another rural community with abandoned buildings, overgrown vegetation and ‘country folks.’ But to those of who live in the community, who were born in the community, who have family from the community, they know Empire is much more than that.
Empire is full of history and tradition. One of the largest lumber mills in the southeast, and the biggest in the state of Georgia was located here. There was a turpentine plant, a bank, a hotel of sorts, several stores, a post office and a train depot right in Empire. The Old Eastman Highway – called by many names through the years – was once the only way to get to and from Dodge County.
There is an old saying ‘if the walls could talk’ or something like that. Well, if that roadway could talk, well, there would be a lot of interesting stories it could tell. Two sections of the roadway are paved, another has gravel, and then the main section that ran through the ‘center’ of Empire, is still dirt.
The old Empire Road, as it is called is home to approximately six residences and one commercial property, and most people use it as a shortcut or a place to ride their off road vehicles. It is the stretch between West Chicken Road and Hwy. 257 by the railroad crossing. You can’t see the trains anymore as they pass by – something that residents have enjoyed for generations. Who doesn’t remember waving at the engineer or laughing at the caboose? There used to be blackberries ripe for the picking along the roadway, but not, due to years of lack of maintenance or upkeep – the vegetation has taken it all over.
The overgrowth has become unsightly, and is slowly taking over the roadway. Also, people have started to dump bags of household garbage, general litter and dead animals along the way. With the highway work being down on the Golden Isles Highway out front, the old highway is sure to be used more. So there is a need for clean-up not only for safety reasons, but also beautification and potential economic growth. Think about it, potential residents or business owners passing through, checking out the areas, and then they see that – do you think they would want to settle here?
Emails have been sent to various agencies in both counties, on the state level and to the railroad company to see who might take accountability and help get this done. No responses yet, and no finger-pointing or fussing, they all have a lot on their plates.
So, why this letter? The old Empire Road – which is 90 percent in Dodge County, and maybe 10 to 15 percent in Bleckley County- could use clean up. Until that happens, maybe it is up to us, the people, to do our parts, and not add to the issue by throwing trash and whatever else out? Either way, it may look like a forgotten dirt road to you, but to those in the community of Empire, it is a part of our history and family life. #EmpireProud.
Thank you for your time,

Dear editor,
Does anybody remember the couple that showed weapons to keep peace protesters from attacking their home in St. Louis. Now there’s an oxymoron, “peaceful”, anything but! The so called “peaceful protesters” trespassed on the couple’s home, killed their dog and attacked their home. Now the couple is being criminally charged of a felony for exercising their rights as law abiding homeowners and gun owners.
We are seeing bloodshed in major Democratic controlled cities, yet a district attorney in St. Louis chooses to harass law abiding citizens. This is the just the first step in the Democrats’ plan to repeal the Second Amendment if that lap dog lackey old man with dementia gets elected and has the keys to Air Force One!
Case in point, Joe Biden has already made public his plans to put Beto O’ Rourke in charge of gun seizures and he’s already promised to come after your AR-15, the most popular assault weapon in the country, and don’t kid yourself, “buyback” is the Democrats word for seizure.
Fellow voters, and I mean conservatives, the Democrats are evil incarnate anyway. Forget them, they would vote for a guy with horns, a ridiculous goatee and a tail. We need to think long and hard about who we send to Washington D.C. on November 3rd, and that is the “Donald”.
Once the Second Amendment is gone, the remainder will fall like dominoes, if Biden goes to the White House. I’m afraid Lady Liberty will be gone forever.

Random thoughts
R.I.P. Herman Cain, Lloyd Marcus, Mike Adams, John Lewis. The first three were great conservatives, gone too soon. I’ve never agreed with John Lewis but he seemed to come off as a nice fellow. He served 33 years in Congress, dependably liberal voting record. I’ve never seen a liberal support term limits. Many liberals never worked in the private sector.
Herman Cain fought and survived stage 4 colin and liver cancer for 14 years, a miracle in itself. He was smeared by the media steamroller, search and destroy conservatives with good ideas.
Remember the 9-9-9 plan proposal by presidential candidate Herman Cain? It made plenty of sense, also produced tax simplification, often promised by politicians, resisted by the D.C. in-crowd. Herman was serious: 9% business flat tax, 9% personal flat tax, 9% sales tax. The Steve Forbes tax reform plan was great also and slammed by the Republican Establishment. Maybe it was Sam Francis who named the parties The Stupid Party and the Corrupt Party. I’d rather be stupid.
The Electoral College sets us apart as a nation – makes us a republic, not a democracy. Without it only about five states would ever see a presidential candidate.
This will win for Trump in November – the last Democrat to win a majority of the white vote for president was the hideous corrupt liar Lyndon B. Johnson, Mr. Vietnam in 1964. LBJ had the media in his hip pocket back then. Now he is never mentioned at Demo Party conventions. The winning streak will continue and result in a Trump win in November.
The Democrat platform: eliminate air travel, no coal, oil, gas, fracking, petroleum exploration, enact the “climate change” craziness in total, open borders, government-run medical care, open borders, vote by mail, hefty tax increases, a wealth tax, electric cars, government spending on steroids. The Progressive plan: Back to The Stone Age for the USA.
I agree that we need to drop the offensive name of Washington Redskins. The new name should be The Redskins.
How much money does Al Sharpton owe the government in back taxes? Does anyone have an idea?

SPORTS
BY RUSS REGAN
Well, it was mostly a great week as Major League Baseball got underway, all be it without fans in the stands. The Braves’ start was good as they won two of the three in New York. Then came Monday morning and the news wasn’t as good. A total of 13 Miami Marlins players and the coaches tested positive for the virus. Let’s hope this doesn’t become a pattern for the short season. Also at anytime we should hear from the SEC and the ACC about the non-conference football games from this fall.
The Braves didn’t get off to the best of starts with the bats anyway against the Mets. They lost the opener on Friday 1-0 despite six shutout innings from Mike Soreka.
The news of Friday started rough as catchers Tyler Flowers and Travis D’ Armand were both not feeling well and were left home despite testing negative for the virus.
Saturday wasn’t looking any better as they trailed 2-1 with two outs in the ninth. Newcomer Marcell Ozuna hit an opposite field homer that tied the game at 2-2 and forced the new extra innings, better known as the “International Tie Breaker”, from the softball people. Dansby Swanson got a lead off RBI single to give the Braves the lead and an eventual 5-3 win.
Finally, the bats came alive on Sunday night. They got homers from Swanson, Albreas, Ozuna and a monster 458 shot from Riley in the 14-1 win. Freeman and Acuna still aren’t hitting just yet but it’s early, sort of. An interesting note, all 30 major league teams have a win and a loss after just three games for many teams.
The last time this happened was 1953, Let’s hope things stay on the field and there is very little talk about off the field. Let’s change things a little and talk football. This week the SEC and the ACC are support to make their decisions about the non-conference football schedule. A possibility that there will be a ten game conference schedule and a plus one. That probably means a rival game like Georgia-Georgia Tech or Florida-Florida State. We should hear something no later than Friday.
Finally, there is NFL news. It is now official that there will be no pre-season games this year. Pre-season camp started yesterday (Tuesday) and will be extended. As was the case with baseball, opting out of contracts this year. One rumor says that it is certainly possible that new Falcons running back Todd Gurley could opt out if the NFL policy doesn’t change. We should hear more soon.

Letter to the editor
Dear editor,
On July 18, our 28th Annual Eastman-Dodge Kiwanis Club Golf Tournament was held at the Dodge County Golf Course.
We as a club would like to thank everyone for the tremendous support and participation in the event.
We would especially like to thank Doug Goen, president of the Dodge County Golf Course and the tournament committee, which is made up of Matt Brown, Keith Peterson and Greg McGee. The course was in great shape and play moved very well, even with the large turnout we enjoyed.
This event would not be possible without our sponsors and a news article will follow shortly listing all of those. Again, thank you for all you do.
All proceeds from this tournament and our other fund raisers go to benefit children.
Thank you,
Jesse Whittle
VP Eastman Dodge Kiwanis

R.I.P. Professor Mike Adams
R.I.P. Professor Mike Adams of U. of North Carolina Wilmington, who died suddenly last Thursday at age 55. I’ve been reading his columns for fifteen years or so. He was one of the best. I met him when he spoke at Agnes Scott College a few years back, very nice fellow, savvy commentator, funny, good natured and hated by liberals, always a plus. The audience was very well behaved, informed, polite, a mostly female crowd. Even the liberal students in the back row were respectful, which surprised me.

Jeb Bush (Jeb!, remember?) spent $130 million running for president against Donald Trump in the 2016 Republican Primary and came up empty. The Bush family has never gotten over it.
George P. Bush, now a successful Texas officeholder, and Jeb’s son have it figured correctly. He says Donald Trump is all that’s standing between America and socialism in November.
Trump got more black votes for president in 2016 than Mitt Romney received in 2012.
Pelosi, Biden and Schumer have dwelt in the D.C. (District of Corruption) swamp for more than 125 years combined. What have those three losers ever accomplished for us? Naturally, all Democrats hate term limits.
“How will we know when we have enough illegal aliens in Georgia?”

Good question…mm.
Malik Obama, Barack’s half-brother, backed Donald Trump in 2016. Coach Bobby Bowden spoke at a Trump October 2016 rally in Tampa, another plus for Bobby, who recently turned 90 and appears to be in fine shape.
You could say it’s occasional crudity or perpetual corruption: I’ll take occasional crudity, said Laura Ingraham in 2016. This year could see the same choice.
Trump draws massive crowds, often overflow attendance, far bigger than Mitt Romney could ever get, and the result showed in November. Biden can’t fill up a high school gym. Supposedly he’s ahead in the polls.
