THURSDAY, Dec. 7
FBN–MR. INDISPENSABLE
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Each team has that one player that makes everything click together, the guy with so much ability and leadership that everyone else plays
better too. Sure, the quarterback is the most important touching the ball every
snap on offense. But take Mr. Indispensable off the field, and nothing is quite
the same. And that makes winning that much tougher in the NFL. By Pro Football
Writer Teresa M. Walker. UPCOMING: 800 words

FRIDAY, Dec. 8
BKC–THE LOW MAJORS-A DREAM REALIZED
SACRAMENTO, California – The bones are what hit Kevin Hicks. Not the house destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, not the devastation still apparent three years
later, not the clothes wadded up in the corner of what was once his bedroom. No,
the bones of the family dog scattered in the yard are what did it, causing the
Sacramento State guard to break down in his first trip back to the 9th Ward of
New Orleans since the storm uprooted his family. By Basketball Writer John

rushing yards, No. 2 in TDs scored, No. 3 in receiving yards, No. 4 in total
tackles. Still, an AP examination of the past 10 seasons shows that Super Bowl
teams tend to rely less on first-year players than others around the league,
while the worst clubs (think: Cleveland Browns) keep using plenty of rookies
without much to show for it. By Pro Football Writer Howard Fendrich. UPCOMING:

MONDAY, Dec. 11
FBN–CBS VS WRS
When the in-game tussles featuring Aqib Talib vs. Michael Crabtree, and Jalen Ramsey vs. A.J. Green played out, Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive back
Ronnie Lott thought back to a bit of advice he received decades ago, before his
San Francisco 49ers faced the Dallas Cowboys. ”`Do not get into a talking match.
… Stay focused on the game,”’ Lott said recalled. ”I’m sure that some coach or
somebody said, `Don’t get caught up in that’ to the guys involved in these
things this season. Whatever the coaches said, it didn’t work.” Sometimes, it
seems, conflicts between cornerbacks and wideouts are simply unavoidable. It is
