Dr. Drew Pinsky says progressive-run Los Angeles is fueling a health catastrophe: “Tuberculosis, typhoid fever, bubonic plague, now H1N1 with only 2 physicians to care for 250 patients.” The Department of Homeland Security head says, “ICE is holding more than 4,000 illegals in quarantine.” Check it out: Dale Steinreich column on LewRockwell.com 6-15-19.

Be careful how you vote. A vote for Ross Perot was a vote for his pal Bill Clinton and Bubba Bill never appointed a conservative to anything. Clinton also appointed Sleepy Ginsberg and Steven Breyer to the Supreme Court plus plenty of Federal Judges. In contrast, Donald Trump has appointed two fine Supreme Court justices and 108 Federal Judges, all life-tenured. Jimmy Carter’s Federal Judges are still around. Of course John Paul Stevens, maybe the most liberal judge on the Court was a Gerald Ford (liberal Republican) appointment. He was around for years after Ford left the White House. Ford also claimed Ronald Reagan was a weak candidate who couldn’t win the general election in 1976 and 1980.
Liberal vote-siphoner Ross Perot turned 89 on June 27, 2019. He was right on one thing – he was against NAFTA. He’s for abortion rights, for gun control, anti-tax cuts.

Vote buying 101: “Lots of Americans won’t vote for any candidate who preaches self-reliance when they can vote for a candidate who wages class warfare and promises them free stuff.”

From Rico on TheoSpark.net: “Don’t worry, ONLY 5-10% of Muslims are extremists. In 1940, ONLY 7% of Germans were Nazis. How did that work out?”
Some never learn – Dennis Prager said in September 2016 polls showed 81 percent of Jewish voters planned to vote for Hillary Clinton. Dennis is Jewish and of course was savvy enough to vote for Trump and will do so again.

By Joey Marchant
Dodge County opened the 2019 season by outlasting the Bradwell Institute Tigers by a score of 49-37 on Coach John M. Peacock Field at Memorial Stadium.
Bradwell would take possession at its own 20 yard line after a touchback on the opening kickoff by Mason Mangham. The Tigers picked up two first downs moving out to their own 45 yard line before an errant snap by Bradwell resulted in a 22 yard loss. This proved a drive killer for Bradwell, but the Tigers were able to pin Dodge at its own 18 yard line with a nice high punt.
Daylon Gordon took the handoff from Kade Harpe on Dodge’s first play from scrimmage and ran virtually untouched for an 82 yard touchdown. Davis Marchant’s block on the middle linebacker cleared the way for Gordon. Mikhail Carr rushed for a two point conversion to give Dodge an 8-0 lead.
Bradwell would start its next possession on its own 36 yard line and move quickly to the Dodge 15 yard line where Carr made a touchdown saving tackle on the quarterback after a 27 yard gain on the keeper. From there, Carr dropped the quarterback for a one yard loss on first down. Elisha Williams sniffed out the screen pass and dropped the running back for a three yard loss on second down. On third down, the quarterback rushed for 10 yards before Jamal Mahan tackled him short of the first down at the Dodge nine yard line. Bradwell connected on a 26 yard field goal from there to cut the Dodge lead to 8-3.
Carr returned the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for an apparent touchdown, but the play was called back to the Dodge 27 yard line for a penalty on the return. Harpe hit Timmy Johnson with a pass for 3 yards on first down. Consecutive carries by Nathan Coley resulted in a Dodge first down at its own 37 yard line. Harpe hit Marchant who gained two yards before being horse collared by a defensive lineman. The resulting penalty gave Dodge a first down at the Bradwell 46 yard line. Later in the drive, Harpe would hit Carr in stride streaking down the sideline for a 52 yard touchdown pass. Gabe Thompson added the extra point to give Dodge a 15-3 lead. A penalty on Bradwell enforced on the kickoff allowed Mangham to drive the ball into the end zone for a touchback.
Two plays later, Coley forced a fumble, which was recovered by Williams at the Bradwell 28 yard line. Gordon carried up the middle for 10 yards making a man miss at the line before running over the safety. Gordon’s helmet came off in the process, which resulted in the play being blown dead by rule. A Bradwell player slammed Gordon to the ground. Harpe came in to defend his teammate and earned a 15 yard penalty moving the ball back to the Bradwell 33 yard line. Two plays later, Harpe handed to Keldrick Beck on an end around play that gained 24 yards to the Bradwell 10 yard line. Two plays later, Noah Cummings, who started at defensive end, came in for his only snap at quarterback. He faked a handoff and hit Carr in the corner of the end zone on a beautiful fade route for an 18 yard touchdown. Mangham nailed the extra point to give Dodge a 22-3 lead at the end of the first quarter.
However, Bradwell would come roaring back. The Tigers started on their own 38 yard line where Cummings dropped the quarterback for a one yard loss on first down. On the next play, Bradwell went to the air for a 63 yard touchdown pass. The wide receiver faked a wide receiver screen route and then took off down the field. The Dodge corners appeared to bite on the fake. Carr came over from his safety position but could not make the touchdown saving tackle this time. Blaine Pritchett came off the corner and blocked the extra point attempt. Dodge led 22-9.
Dodge took possession at its own 20 yard line after a touchback. Harpe went to the air hitting Timmy Johnson for 11 yards, Tyrese Johnson for five yards and Beck for 26 yards. Gordon rushed for a 14 yard gain to the Bradwell 35 yard line. Lemon had runs of eight yards and four yards. Coley rushed for eight yards to the Bradwell 15 yard line. The Dodge Offense stalled, and Mangham was wide left on a 37 yard field goal attempt.
Bradwell took over at its own 20 and moved down the field largely on the legs of its quarterback. However, the Dodge Defense stiffened at its own 24 yard line. On first down, Mahan and Williams blew up the screen pass dropping the running back for a loss of one yard. On second down, Mahan grabbed the running back in the backfield and flung him backwards dislodging the ball in the process, which was recovered by Javon McNeal. The play earned Mahan the 13 WMAZ Rib Rocker Award.
Dodge took over at its own 35 yard line and would drive to Bradwell’s 27 yard line highlighted by a 16 yard run by Gordon. The Bradwell Defense held on fourth down when Harpe overthrew Timmy Johnson.
When Bradwell took over, Williams sacked the quarterback for a one yard loss. McNeal sacked the quarterback for an 11 yard loss. Dodge would force a punt to end the half with a 22-9 lead.
The two teams traded punts to start the third quarter. Then Gordon rushed for a 69 yard touchdown on a counter trap play. Gordon ran behind the pulling linemen Jarred Frost and Noah Pace. He made the safety miss and ran untouched to the end zone. Harpe handled a low snap and Thompson split the uprights with the extra point to give Dodge a 29-9 lead.
Bradwell came roaring back by returning the ensuing kickoff to the Dodge 11 yard line and scoring on a run up the middle on the next play. The extra point cut the Dodge lead to 29-16.
Carr returned the ensuing kickoff to the Dodge 26 yard line where Harpe hit Marchant on a tight end screen pass for 24 yards to midfield. Two plays later, Coley ran 45 yards to the Bradwell five yard line. However, two plays later Coley would fumble the ball away to Bradwell.
Bradwell would throw incompletions on first and second down. Mahan dropped the running back for a big loss on third down forcing Bradwell to punt with the ball sitting just outside its goal line. Dodge brought pressure and almost blocked it, but the punter got off a low line drive punt. Coley fielded it on the Bradwell 33 yard line and raced down to the 10 yard line. A face mask penalty moved it to the five yard line, and Lemon would take it in from there on a direct snap for the Dodge touchdown. Mangham drilled the extra point, and Dodge led 36-16.
Dodge lost containment on the kickoff, and Bradwell brought it out to the Dodge 48 yard line. Bradwell quickly moved down the field to the Dodge 24 yard line where despite heavy pressure from Mahan, the quarterback threw a touchdown pass. Bradwell converted the extra point to cut the Dodge lead to 36-23.
Carr had a nice return, but a penalty moved it back to the Dodge 18 yard line. This time Dodge ran the counter trap to the left with Quinn Whitehead and Colby Lee pulling. Gordon took the handoff and split three defenders who converged on him. He would then outrace the Bradwell Defense for another 82 yard touchdown run. Thompson converted the extra point to stretch the Dodge lead to 43-23.
It was about this time that the momentum began to shift. The Georgia heat began to take its toll as often happens in a season opener. Bradwell being a much larger school with virtually no players playing on both sides of the ball was better suited for the heat. Dodge played a lot of players, and came into the game having trained hard, but several key players began to suffer cramps. The game now looked like a heavyweight fight where one guy opens up with a flurry of punches but eventually punches himself out while his opponent paces himself and cruises to victory. There was no doubt who was the better team, but could Dodge hang on?
Dodge fans began to watch the clock while still in the third quarter. A short kickoff allowed Bradwell to start at its own 37 yard line. Tyrese Johnson came up from his safety position and dropped the quarterback for a one yard loss on first down. However, on second down, a Dodge defender pulled up with a cramp in the middle of a pass play allowing the receiver to run free down the field before Pritchett caught up with him inside the Dodge 10 yard line. Two plays later, the quarterback floated one into the end zone, and Beck picked it off returning it to the Dodge 27 yard line.
The third quarter would finally end with Dodge leading 43-23. Dodge could not make a first down, and Timmy Johnson came in to punt. The kick took a Dodge roll and netted 41 yards. Bradwell flew down the field scoring a touchdown and extra point to cut the Dodge lead to 43-30.
Bradwell would try an onside kick that looked like trouble for Dodge until the ball changed directions and took a lateral bounce toward the sideline coming up short of the 10 yards required of an onside kick. Dodge would take over with great field position at the Bradwell 32 yard line. Dodge appeared to be ready to deliver the knockout punch after runs by Gordon and Coley, but a holding call on a nice run by Beck left Dodge in second and long. Two incompletions left Dodge facing a fourth and 13 at the Bradwell 27. It was too far for a field goal, so Dodge left its offense on the field. Bradwell brought a blitz which swallowed Harpe before he could find a receiver giving Bradwell the ball back at its own 34 yard line.
Dodge lost containment on the next play as the quarterback took it down the sideline for a 66 yard touchdown run. The extra point cut the Dodge lead to 43-37. All Bradwell needed was one stop, and it would be in position for a game winning drive. Dodge would look to Carr who was also suffering from cramps to give them a spark on offense. Credit Coach Cofer who has brought a lot of new plays to the Dodge playbook, but he dialed up an old play familiar to Dodge fans when he called for Carr on the Jet Sweep. Carr took it left on one play and right on the next play totaling 39 yards on two carries, his only two rushes of the game. Carr limped off the field, and Dodge went back to Gordon on the next play. A pulling Frost blocked the defensive end, and tight end McNeal absolutely obliterated the outside linebacker. Gordon broke the tackle of the middle linebacker and veered to the outside outrunning everyone to the goal line. The snap on the extra point was high, and Thompson’s kick was blocked. Dodge led 49-37.
Bradwell would eventually score again, but have its touchdown called back for a penalty. Then with Mahan and Williams bearing down on the quarterback, he threw the ball into the arms of McNeal who returned it 39 yards to the Bradwell 46 yard line. Dodge could not score, but Timmy Johnson came in for a 38 yard punt that pinned Bradwell on its own five yard line. Bradwell threw four incompletions giving Dodge the ball back. Dodge went into its Victory formation, and Harpe took a knee to finally run out the clock on Dodge’s 49-37 victory.
Dodge was excited to get the victory in Coach Cofer’s first game at Dodge County. The team showed a lot of heart to persevere down the stretch and grind out the victory. The Dodge Offense rolled up over 600 yards. Dodge will now have an open week in which to get some rest and go to work correcting its many mistakes. It has been said that a team improves most between its first and second game of the season. We look forward to seeing if that proves true for Dodge this year.
Dodge will take on the AAAA West Laurens Raiders on September 6th at 7:30 in Eastman. West Laurens is a talented team who the Indians have narrowly defeated for the last three years in a row, so you can bet the Raiders have this one circled on their calendar. West Laurens will bring a lot of fans, so we need all Dodge fans to be there and be loud.

The Dodge High Lady Indians split a pair of games over the past week. Dodge opened the week with a tough 10-6 loss to Veterans. Dodge ran their region record to 3-0 as they got an 18-1 road win at Washington County. This Thursday, Dodge will travel to Bleckley County for a 5:30 p.m. clash with the Lady Royals.
Dodge got off to a rough start against Veterans. The Lady Indians trailed 6-0 going to the fourth. Logan White led off the inning with a walk and she advanced to second on a hit by Sydney Powell. While would later score to put Dodge on the board trailing 6-1. Dodge got the bats going in the sixth as they trailed 8-1. Bailey Hervey led off with a hit by pitch. White added with her second hit of the day to put two runners on. Ava Roland would get a one-hit out that scored Hervey for an 8-2 game. Dylanna Barton would single home Roland for an 8-3 game.
The Lady Indians would actually make things real interesting in the seventh. Aniyah Black singled to lead off. A walk to Gracie Lewis and another hit by pitch by Hervey loaded the bases for Logan White. The junior hit a line shot to the right field corner that scored Carson, Ethridge and Lewis for a 10-5 game. A wild pitch would score Hervey for a 10-6 game. A single by Powell and then walks to Roland and Pattillo loaded the bases and brought the typing run to the plate. Unfortunately, the runners would be stranded and Dodge would fall 10-6.
The Lady Indians returned to region play in Sandersville to play Washington County. Dodge wasted no time getting things going. Dylanna Barton led off by getting hit by a pitch. One out later, Aniyah Black doubled her home for a 1-0 game. Logan White remained hot as she hit a two-run homerun for a 3-0 lead. JaineVae Pattillo singled home Mikayah Roberson and Bailey Hervey for a 5-0 lead. Dylanna Barton singled home Ava Roland and Pattillo for a 7-0 lead going to the bottom of the first.
The Lady Hawks got an unearned run off of Linzy Bowen in the first to cut the lead to 7-1. Both teams failed to score in the second. Dodge put the game away in another big inning. Roberson reached on an error and Bailey Hervey singled to lead off the third. Ava Roland singled home Roberson for an 8-1 lead. Aniyah Black singled home a pair of runs and White singled home her third of the day for a 14-1 lead.
Bowen coasted through the third. She picked up a pair of strikeouts in the bottom of the third as she worked around a pair of errors. Dodge kept the offense going in the fourth. Aniyah Black got her second double and third RBI of the day as she drove in Barton for a 15-1 game. Two outs later, Logan White got her third hit and fourth RBI of the day as she drove in Black for a 16-1 game. Roberson got her third hit of the game as she singled home White. Kyla Howell wrapped up the days scoring as she knocked in Roberson for the 18-1 final. Bowen allowed but one hit and she added six strikeouts in the win.

Despite the 3-1 loss on Monday, the Braves have been on quite the roll as of late. They have won eight of their last 10 and it’s a good thing too because the Nationals have also won eight of 10 to stay in shouting distance just 5.5 games back. The hot streak by both teams made this a two-team race as the Phillies and Mets are both more than 11 games back. The Braves step out of National League play as they have Toronto and the White Sox coming up.
The Braves have been quite busy since the July 31 trade deadline as they picked up catcher Francisco Cervelli, formerly of the Pirates, Billy Hamilton of the Royals and Adeiny Hechavarria. All of those players are known for their glove and not their bat but yet all of them have made big contributions at the plate. Cervelli made the latest contribution as he was three for five at the plate against the Mets as they won 9-5 on Saturday. Hamilton who is known for his great speed and great glove also had a game-winning hit in the sweep over the Mets.
The best thing to me that has come from the big run is that the bullpen has come alive. Shane Greene, Luke Jackson and Mark Melancon have all gotten hot here as of late. If they can keep things going they can compete with any one.
Another big feat this week came from Ronald Acuna, Jr. He stole his 30th and 31st base to go into the 30/30 club as he has 36 homeruns. If he can get going on the bases, he can make the really rare 40/40 club. Freddie Freeman is also having a huge year as he has 35 homeruns and 105 RBIs. He has also scored 101 runs. Those are great numbers for a season much less through August 26. Josh Donaldson is also over 30 homeruns with 32. Can they join the 70’s trio of Darrell Evans, Hank Aaron and Davey Johnson to all have 40 homeruns in a single season?
The talk is now over and it’s time for the Bulldogs to go to work this Saturday night. The Dogs go to Nashville to play Vanderbilt. The young and talented Bulldogs should win this weekend but they must stay focused. It will be interesting to see how the Dogs’ wide outs play since they lost them to the NFL. I do expect Swift to have a big game and hopefully Zeus can make his long awaited debut. I think the Commodores will get a heavy dose of tail-back U this week. Dogs should have this one under control.
Another season is close to starting but the Falcons are trying to get things going. They lost their 12th straight pre-season game to Washington. They will take another crack at things against Jacksonville this week. Kicker Giorgio Tavecchio has been awful since being handed the kicking job. The Birds have brought in former Dog kicker Blair Walsh. Unfortunately, he is most known for missing a 25-yard field goal that cost his team a playoff game. I still don’t know what the deal is and why they don’t just call Matt Bryant back.
