Boston Runner laps Through Rural Nevada: Follows History’s Footsteps in Creating ‘Freedom Trail’ Honoring 9/11 Heroes

ELY, Nevada (PRWEB) June 28, 2002 -

While on a run across the country that began April 23 in Los Angeles and is set to end next March 14 in Boston on the Freedom Trail, Bob Alessio e-mails regular, weekly reports to his friends and family via the Internet. For Alessio, the run represents a personal challenge that has turned into a unique patriotic endeavor.

But something else is happening for the 57-year-old Boston resident as well; Alessio, a retired computer marketing executive, says he is making loads of new friends just about wherever he goes, and is picking up more information than he had ever expected about history and regional issues.

“It’s enough to write a book,he said. “My Palm Pilot is full of each day’s experiences, who I’ve met, what I’ve seen, and just about everything that has happened along the way.”

This past night in the historical mining town of Ely, Alessio’s newest acquaintances were entertained in the county park as the runner shared some traditional fiddle tunes under the stars. “Be sure to include us on your e-mail list,” several listeners requested.

The week before, on June 16 during Gridley Days in tiny Austin, Nevada, Alessio said he’d also shared his fiddling with more new friends, this time playing with the house band at the historical International Hotel. The next morning, he competed in and won Austin’s annual flour sack race.

Afterwards, locals told the Boston visitor the original race was run between two political candidates in the early 1860s on a bet with the loser having to carry the 50-lb sack of flour on a run through town. The sack of flour was then auctioned off among mining towns as a fund-raiser for the newly created Sanitation Corps that eventually became the American Red Cross, according to historical reports by Mark Twain, then a reporter and feature writer for the Virginia City newspaper.

In still other small towns along way, Alessio said he’s found sharing fiddle tunes a relaxing way to end the day and a friendly way to meet new people. “I could not have envisioned the depth of my connection with American history when my plans first evolved,” Alessio said. “I’ve met and talked with Native American Indians, ranchers, townspeople, local historians, and characters I would not have met any other way. I’m truly getting a thumbnail sense of Americana, its roots and issues.”

It was on September 6, 2001 that Alessio says he first thought of running across America as a “personal athletic challenge”.

“My original Transamerica plan was to run the shortest route between San Francisco and Boston, approximately 3,250 miles. I’d chosen this route because I’ve always liked San Franciso and the Bay Area, and Boston is my home,” Alessio said.

But five days later, after the September 11 terrorist attack on America, the Boston man’s plans took a turn. “September 11 changed my life. I know I am not alone in the deep feelings of patriotism expanded my objectives and plans.” It was only then Alessio said he decided to alter his route to unite all the sites involved in domestic terrorist attacks including the Los Angeles Airport, San Francisco Airport, Oklahoma City, Shanksville, Dulles Airport, Washington DC, Newark Airport, New York City and the Boston Logan Airport.

Tuesday, the morning after stopping for a one-day break in Ely, located about 250 miles east of Reno in eastern Nevada’s high desert country, Alessio said he had just completed 1,063 miles on his unique 5,450 mile journey, as he took a break to talk about the trip for the first time in detail.

“When I’m running along carrying my American flag, people are asking me what I’m doing. They stop me on the small streets and highways, and even knock on the camper door,” Alessio said. His one-person support team drives ahead in an RV to each planned destination. Rendezous points and estimated times of arrival keep Alessio in contact with his daughter Sheryl’s friend, Ray Napoli of Fitchburg, Mass.

“There’s lots of interest in this run and I’m enjoying the opportunity to meet people and explain my mission in my “Run Across American-For Enduring Freedom” (RAA-FEF),” Alessio said.

Alessio said he is dedicating the run to the victims and families of the terrorist attack, the emergency response organizations including firefighters, police and EMTs, disaster relief organizations such as the American Red Cross and Salvation Army, and to express support of the US Armed Services.

Keeping focus on the importance of freedom, homeland security, pride in the American Flag and the liberties it represents is Alessio’s primary goal, “so that we forever remember the sacrifices others have made to preserve liberty and freedom, and never again take the fundamental values of America for granted.”

Once a high school and then collegiate athlete, Alessio, who has run the Boston Marathon twice and several other major running events, appeared confident while talking about the run.

“I plan to run to all of the service academies: the USAFA in Colorado Springs, USNA in Annapolis, Marine Officer Training Center in Quantico, Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Point, USMA in West Point, and the Coast Guard Academy in New London,” Alessio said.

So far, Alessio has run to and through a variety of “Americana” geographic and historic landmarks for example, Big Sur, portions of the historic Lincoln Highway and Highway 40;(the first transcontinental highways in America), the California “Gold Country”, Donner Park and Memorial at Donner Pass, U.S. Highway 50 in Nevada; The Loneliest Highway in America; including Fallon where the U.S. Navy and Air Force train their “Top Gun” pilots.

Also the historic mining towns of Austin, Eureka and Ely, “where you can still see portions of the Overland Stage and Pony Express trails along the right of way of the first Transcontinuental Railway, and where today the fiber optic cable is being laid.

The runner said he is on schedule, even ahead of his plans, giving him time to send out his weekly e-mail report:

“Hi friends and family. I’m now in Ely, Nevada, a beautiful historic mining town surrounded (all 360 degrees) by mountains. Every day is a new and exciting adventure including the beautiful geography, meeting wonderful people, and getting enthusiastic support from motorists, highway patrol, firemen and townspeople.

“I’m averaging 20+ miles per day (with a high of 25.1 miles from Davis to West Sacramento, Ca). I’ve covered 1,064 miles to-date (20% of the planned 5450 miles), and am feeling great…no reoccurrences of the early achilles tendonitis, and the toe blister healed!!

“I depart tomorrow morning for Delta, UT (154 miles = 7 days@22 miles/day). I’ll continue through the same “range and basin” terrain that I’ve experienced all across Nevada (mountain ranges followed by basins (valleys that absorb and dry up all the water from the ranges). I’ll go through Connor’s Pass (6900′) as I pass through the highest mountains in Nevada including Wheeler Peak at 13,063′. I’ve been at or above 6,000′ (including the valleys) for the last three weeks. This should continue through Utah, and then get into 10,000′ terrain when I reach the Rockies in Colorado…great training for my planned Pikes Peak Marathon (14,400′) on August 18.

Still coming up for Alessio: the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Santa Fe Trail, Bill Monroe’s boyhood home in Rosine, KY, the assassination sites of three freedom heroes, RFK, JFK and MLK, Jr. in L.A., Dallas and Memphis, the Stephen Foster Memorial in Pittsburgh, Gettysburg, Valley Forge, Concord Old North Bridge, Lexington Green, Old North Church, and numerous National monuments and memorials.

“My RAA-FEF Plan now covers 5,450 miles in 288 running days over a 324-day period. I plan to visit military bases, firehouses and police stations along the way to express my support and appreciation for the many Americans involved in protecting our homeland and freedom. I am offering to give presentations to high schools, athletic clubs, Boy and Girl Scout Troops, community organizations, colleges and universities, along the way.

“Since my RAA-FEF is an expression of patriotism, I am carrying an American Flag and wearing shirts, jackets and caps with symbols of patriotism including ‘Old Glory,’ armed services, service academies and the New England Patriots logos.

Here are Alessio’s RAA-FEF Timeline and Upcoming Sites:

Monday April 22, fly to L.A., start the Run on Tuesday April 23 from Playa Del Ray (on the beach south of Marina Del Ray).

The Run will go through 25 states and finish in Boston in March 2003. “To my knowledge and research, this RAA-FEF will be the longest continuous and the first patriotic run across America.”

Run 20 to 25 miles each day with a day off every 2-3 weeks. “If I am feeling strong after the first four months, I will run the Pikes Peak Marathon on August 18, 2002 while running through the Colorado Springs area.”

“Cities and towns that I either have run through or are coming up include Los Angeles, Malibu, Santa Barbara, Big Sur, Monterey, Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Napa, Davis, Sacramento, Donner Pass, around Lake Tahoe to Carson City,NV, through Utah, Aspen, Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Raton Pass, Cimmaron,NM, Amarillo, Oklahoma City, Dallas, Shreveport, Memphis, Nashville, Bowling Green, Rosine,KY, Louisville, Fort Knox, Cincinnati, Dayton, Columbus.

Also Wheeling, Washington,PA, Pittsburgh, Shanksville, Gettysburg, Washington DC, Quantico, Annapolis, Baltimore, Wilmington, Philadelphia, Valley Forge, Newark, New York, Kings Point, West Point, Yorktown, Bridgeport, New Haven, New London, Hopkinton, Stow, Concord and Lexington (along Battle Road), Cambridge, Boston (along the Boston Freedom Trail) and finish at the Paul Revere memorial and Columbus Park in Boston’s North End.

While the big towns are actually listed in Alessio’s plans, it is the small towns like Napa and Auburn, California, Austin, Eureka and Ely, Nevada “that have given me some new perspective on history and rural America. I could actually see the old trails and highways while running Nevada’s Range and Basin terrain. These are new experiences that allow me to see America up close and personal.”

During my RAA-FEF, Alessio says he will participate in the following “Distance Running Big Three” (his terminology):

1. “The Boston Marathon” April 15, 2002 — The largest media-covered single day sporting event in the world;

2. The San Francisco “Bay-to-Breakers Race” (7.6 miles) May 19, 2002 — The largest participation sporting event in the world ~85,000 runners;

3. The Pikes Peak Marathon¡ August 18, 2002 — “America’s Ultimate Challenge”.

“At the conclusion of the Run (planned for mid-March, 2003), Massachusetts State Senator Richard Moore has offered to host a reception at the State House in Boston. “I plan to run the Boston Marathon again on April 21, 2003.”

UPDATE: JULY 31, 2002

Hi friends and family,

I’m issuing this update from the broadcast studio of KSNO (think SNOW!!)

radio station in beautiful Aspen, Colorado. I was interviewed live

yesterday, and the station manager offered me use of his PC to read and send

mail.

As I write this update, the news room is aggressively covering a brand new

mountain and mesa fire 20 miles west of Aspen that started soon after I

arrived here this afternoon. Very interesting to listen to Fire, Sheriff

and Police scanner reports, property loss updates, evacuation orders, live

on-radio interviews with observers, and the radio staff scurrying about to

stay on top of the story. Airplane water and slurry bombers are now

en-route to knock the fire down before it becomes another major fire.

The West has been experiencing a damaging drought with excessive heat which

together have caused many fires and loss of life. I have seen several of

these fires (flames and smoke, large and small) in Nevada, Utah and Colorado

during my run.

Since my last update, I have run though Utah and halfway through Colorado,

and am now in the heart of the beautiful Rocky Mountains at 7,815′. I’ve

been at 5000′ or higher since entering the Sierra Nevadas 2-1/2 months ago.

Tomorrow (Thursday), I begin my ascent over Independence Pass (12,095′) and

over the Great Divide.

On Saturday, I plan to climb (hike, not run) Mt. Elbert, the highest

mountain in Colorado (14,433′) as I pass by the trailhead near Twin Lakes,

Co.

This morning, I visited the John Denver Memorial along the Roaring Fork

River in Aspen. The memorial is located on a one acre setting with views of

Aspen Mountain and Red Mountain, the river and the canyon leading to

Independence Pass. The memorial consists of about 30 large white rocks

along a stone walkway. The titles and complete lyrics of John’s most

popular tunes on about ten of the larger rocks, including, “Rocky Mountain

High”, “Annie’s Song”, “Sunshine on My Shoulders”. I must confess, I was a

bit choked-up.

I’d like to relate a few events that occurred over the last month:

“The Jackpot” –

As I crossed the Nevada/Utah border on US50 (the “Loneliest Highway in

America”), I stopped at the only building within 50 miles…a gambling

casino on the Nevada side and gas station on the Utah side (lower gas taxes

in Utah). Two days later, as I was approaching Delta, UT, a pick-up truck

went by me traveling east. I watched it do a U-turn in the highway and come

back on the right shoulder I was running on. As it pulled up, I noticed a

lady driving and two men in the front bench seat. The lady asked why I am

running with a flag. I explained, and she said “well this is our lucky

day!, you can have $ 20, a Bud, or a Mountain Dew”. I explained that I was

taking donations for the Brain Center. As she reached into her pocket and

pulled out a wad of $ 50 dollar bills, she said she had just hit the jackpot

for $ 1600 back at the border.

She gave me a $ 50 bill while the man in the center asked if I now wanted a

Bud or the Mountain Dew. I explained that I save my beer drinking for the

end of the run and accepted the Mountain Dew (it was hot, about 115o F). We

talked a bit more, I asked them to stop at my camper about 8 miles down the

road to get a flyer describing my Run. We said good-by, they U-turned back

east honking and shouting Patriotic messages. Later when I got to my

camper, I learned that they had stopped, picked up the flyers and left two

Buds!!

“The Bull” –

While running east through beautiful Salina Canyon in central Utah on

parallel frontage and fire roads, I approached a concrete tunnel under pass

under I-70 (I had previously passed thru 6-8 such tunnels with no incident).

As I approached the tunnel entrance from the north, I noticed a bull walking

back and forth in the light at the south side of the tunnel. I stopped

briefly to see if the bull would leave the area; it did not. I gathered my

courage and continued running into the tunnel, just at the time the bull

decided to run towards me at at a fast gallop. I stopped, he then stopped,

and we both froze about 30′ apart inside the tunnel. I started backing up

(I really want to complete this Run Across America), and shortly later the

bull backed out at the south end. I again gathered courage and ran through

the tunnel only to find the bull on the dirt road fenced in on both sides

(I-70 fencing on the left and mountain canyon fencing on the right). The

bull lowered its head, stared at me, and began the right foot routine I’d

only previously seen in the movies and on TV. At the same time, a big

brown cow started down the mountain slope towards us bellowing like she was

calling for others to assist her bull friend. The bull decided to run east

about 70-80 yards, so I continued east. He stopped, I stopped. He started

running east again, I followed. This continued for 10-15 minutes for over a

mile. At this time, I’m thinking that the bull is probably more scared than

I am (but not by much). It stopped again and the rest of the herd (bulls

and cows) were coming at me down the mountain from the southwest. Now I’m

really concerned. My options were to try to run past the bull, retreat west

(I really want to finish this Run running east without repeating much of the

route), or climb the 5 foot barbed wire fence between the dirt road and

I-70. I chose the latter, and climbed the barbed wire with minor scratches,

climbed the embankment to the highway, ran along the eastbound left shoulder

past the bull down below. A couple in a car on I-70 stopped and asked if I

needed help, I explained that I thought everything was under control. The

lady gave me a bottle of water, they wished me well and drove off. I ran

back down the embankment, back over the barbed-wire fence, and looked back

at the bull (finally behind me!!) staring at my every move. My Polar heart

rate monitor indicated 160 BPM, far higher than usual!!

There are many other stories I could relate, but I’ll save them for a book I

just may write.

Also since my last update, Nike signed on as a sponsor, providing running

shoes (I’ll go through 10 pairs) and running apparel including the water

resistant breathable suits that I’ll need as I run through the fall and

winter.

Something that I’ve not previously mentioned: as I run on the shoulders of

roads I see American Flags, mostly tattered and torn, that have blown off

cars. I just cannot leave them lying in the dirt and weeds. To-date, I

have picked up eleven flags of all sizes, cleaned them up, and have them

hanging in my camper (27-1/2′ Class C RV).

Also, at the suggestion of the Fire and Police Chiefs in Boulder Creek, CA,

I have been collecting fire, police and sheriff office patches at the

stations I have stopped at to express my thanks and support for their work;

I now have about 40 patches hanging in the camper. I’ll show the WDC and

NYC emergency relief organizations the patches when I run through their

cities next January and February, and express the thoughts and support of

the emergency relief folks and citizens I’ve met with along the way.

Ray, my daughter Sheryl’s friend who was with me for 2-1/2 months from L.A.

to Green River, UT had to return to help with his dad’s landscape and

nursery business. Ray was a great help during the early portion of this Run

and was a key motivator in having Sheryl join us for a week in Nevada.

When I came into Grand Junction, CO I heard that John Sommers (John Denver’s

fiddler and writer of “Thank God I’m a Country Boy”) was performing at a

local vineyard and winery. I attended, an met John Sommers who asked me to

speak about my Run during his second set. I then met Bruce Crumley and Judy

Game (Bruce’s sister-in-law) who showed great interest in my Run and it’s

objectives. They offered to support me from Grand Junction through Aspen

(they have been Aspen and Aspen area residents for 20 years).. They have

now offered to support me to at least Colorado Springs, and possibly beyond.

Through their contacts, Bruce and Judy have arranged about 20 radio, TV and

newspaper interviews over the last 10 days.

Albert Brien and Tabby, friends from Albert’s “Fiddlers’ Loft” in Kingston,

NH are planning to visit me in Colorado Springs for a few days as I rest and

recover from my planned running of the Pikes Peak Marathon.

Well for those of you still reading, thanks for your support and e-mails.

Feel free to forward the attached and updated Word document to friends.

I’m off to carbo-load for my Independence Pass ascent tomorrow morning.

I’ll send along another update when I get to Colorado Springs.

Best Regards, Bob

Grey Flannel Auctions Reaches $1.9 Million

Westhampton Beach, NY (PRWEB) May 28, 2006

A game-used Mickey Mantle jersey from 1954 sold for $ 102,487 early May 11 in an auction organized by Grey Flannel Auctions (http://www.greyflannelauctions.com). The pinstripe flannel of the Yankee Hall of Famer was autographed. The auction grossed nearly $ 2 million.

The Mantle jersey was among numerous historic jerseys in the sale. A Reggie Jackson Yankees road jersey worn in 1977 sold for $ 44,773; and a Harmon Killebrew game-used Minnesota Twins uniform, a jersey and two pair of pants from 1964, sold for $ 16,831.

The 1937 Yankees World Championship ring from George Selkirk, sold for $ 31,944.

?What an extraordinary sale,? said Richard Russek, president of Grey Flannel Auctions. ?The level of interest in Mantle and all things Yankees continues to lead the market. This auction proved once again that vintage baseball continues to gain collecting strength, perhaps moreso by today’s scrutinizing baseball fan who is grappling with certain modern day players.?

As with all signature Grey Flannel auctions, this one contained important gear in other sports. Lynn Swann’s USC Trojans helmet circa 1973 sold for $ 9,900; Tom Brady’s 2004 white mesh jersey from his championship season with the New England Patriots sold for $ 9,517.

A Tiger Woods Nike golf shirt, worn during his remarkable tour year in 1999-2000, sold for $ 8,634. The shirt was autographed. Woods’ tour-used and autographed ?The Masters/Tiger Slam? yardage guide from 2001 sold for $ 6,230.

Basketball items showed great strength among collectors. Perhaps the most unusual item in the hoops genre is Wilt Chamberlain custom-made “Searcher I” Race Car. It sold for $ 91,000.

?What a fun item this one was, with very lively bidding,? Russek said.

Meanwhile, Michael Jordan’s Dream Team game-used jersey from 1992, signed by Michael, sold for $ 18,150. Larry Bird’s game-used Boston Celtics road jersey from the mid-1980s sold for $ 11,595. Earvin ?Magic? Johnson’s game-used Lakers home jersey from 1984-’85 sold for $ 9,517. Kobe Bryant’s game-used road jersey from the NBA finals in 2001-2002 sold for $ 5,445. Bernard King’s New York Knicks’ game-used home jersey sold for $ 8,770.

Bill Bradley’s 1970 road blue Knicks jersey, with two pair of game shorts, topped that total at $ 18,150.

Basketball collectors looking for a different kind of history found it in the James A. Naismith induction plaque and medallion that hung for years in the National Basketball Hall of Fame and Museum. It sold for $ 4,896.

?Baseball dominates the sports collecting marketplace and maybe it always will, but pro basketball is maturing to the point that collectors are keenly interested in items from that game’s legends.?

Among other items that sold were:

o A Yankee Stadium traveling trunk sold for $ 5,559;

o A single-signed Jackie Robinson baseball, with ?Best Wishes? added, sold for $ 8,054;

o A rare seat from the Original Palace of the Fans in Cincinnati sold for $ 2,514;

o An original Polo Grounds figural seat sold for $ 2,928;

o A double seat from Braves Field in Boston sold for $ 5,182;

o Don Mattingly’s Silver and Gold Bat Awards sold for $ 8,436;

o An Eddie Murray game-used alternate jersey, worn during his rookie year in 1977, sold for $ 8,000;

o A Kirby Puckett game-used home Minnesota Twins jersey from 1992 sold for $ 4,857; and

o A 2002 National League NLCS ring from 2002 sold for $ 6,645.

Grey Flannel serves as the official appraiser for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and Museum as well as the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center and Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association.

TippingSprung Fields Third Annual Brand-Extension Survey

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 20, 2006

Results from TippingSprung’s third annual survey of brand extensions, produced in collaboration with marketing newsweekly Brandweek, revealed which extensions are most effective, which have potential to dilute the brand, and what makes some brands more extendible than others. Major trends in brand extensions were also uncovered.

“The survey was developed to help brand owners understand the value of their most important asset – their brand – and to intelligently find ways of unlocking that value through strategic extensions.” says Martyn Tipping, president of TippingSprung, and one of the survey’s authors.

Of course, extensions can go too far, raising the eyebrows of consumers or even weakening the core brand. The jury is still out, but this might end up being the fate of brand extensions like the Salvador Dal

Diosa: The Goddess

Born in the blue collar back drop of Grand Rapids, Michigan and reared in the rays of sunshine and southern charm of Columbia, South Carolina, the vibrant and voracious Diosa Stevenson was perhaps blessed with tenacity and worldly persona from her Mexican mother and the musical moxie of her father [of African descent], who was a lead vocalist and guitar player in a local band.

Before the metamorphosis of DIOSA, the petite-yet-persuasive dynamo was known simply as; Felicia Stevenson, a small town girl with big city aspirations and stars in her eyes.

Felicia began acting, singing and dancing lessons at 7 years old. At the age of 8 she landed a place in a child singing group where their rigorous rehearsals and talent led to a number of local gigs. In the late 90’s, Diosa Stevenson started doing her own shows and bigger venues, opening for artists including T.I., Lil’ Wayne and Lloyd. The rising star enjoyed the unrelenting support of her close knit small family which consisted of her mom, dad and younger brother.

The young siren?s strides and musical achievements became darkly shadowed by the painful loss of her beloved mother when she was only 15. Despite her father?s best efforts, the family was broken. She and her little brother had to be moved into separate homes, Felicia lived place to place and switched schools more times than she can count.

Destiny would soon reveal the dawn for Felicia when she was selectively chosen to attend the prestigious Governor School of Performing Arts High School; that rewards each of its students $ 20,000 dollars a year and housing. There she studied theater, and receive intensive training in acting, singing, voice diction, tap dance and ballet. This seclusion from her family woes allowed Felicia to become focused on honing and identifying her crafts. She also proved to be an excellent student academically; scoring a 3.8 GPA and graduating top 5% in her class.

In her spare time while in still in high school, the independent spirit entered [and won], a number of talent competitions and began building relationships with local musicians and expanded her production chops with the creation of her very own music studio which she operated out of her own apartment to earn extra cash.

While traveling to Atlanta, Georgia to buy a car a couple years ago, Felicia had a chance encounter with her current manager; Barry Zaklad, who happened to be close friends with super platinum producer, Teddy Alexander Bishop?the rest is, as they say; ?HER-STORY?!

With the support of Zaklad, the fearless Scorpion made the bold decision to relocate her heart, soul, sofa and college credits to Atlanta where she emerged her self in the transition from southern belle Felicia Stevenson to international pop diva; DIOSA Stevenson [Spanish for Goddess]!

Even in the midst of a flurry of life changes and challenges, the Oxford Scholar ultimately obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Business at Oglethorpe University in 2010.

With educational goals checked off her long list of things-to-do and the aid of ?TEAM DIOSA?, comprised of a dedicated collective of the country?s premiere star makers; Diosa?s live performance, seductive new music and hot sugar persona is poised to give listeners an undeniable SUGAR RUSH!

?TEAM DIOSA?

Teddy Bishop: The Producer

Platinum super producer and musical visionary Teddy Bishop lent his sought after Midas touch to the ?Club Diosa? project after witnessing the stunning entertainer in action. No stranger to amazing talent, Bishop felt compelled to lend his support and expertise in the making of what he references as; ?The next big thing in Popular Culture?. According to Bishop, ?It was quite evident that Diosa is an artist that I could not sleep on?. After working with illustrious artists such as Letoya Luckett, Toni Braxton, Whitney Houston and Aaliyah and delivering hits such as ?Torn? [Luckett], ?Just Be a Man About It? [Braxton] and ?I Miss You? [Aaliyah], it?s safe to say Teddy?s Bishops eyes and ears for talent can be trusted.

?Over the years I have had the pleasure of working with a lot of talent in the music industry, Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Usher, Aaliyah, Latoya Luckett, Mariah Carey, and many others. My dream always was, and still today is to create a superstar that stays in the game for a very long time. I believe that I have found that type of artist in Diosa”.

AFC Championship Game: Pats Have Simply No Chance – The Cry Heard All Year

(PRWEB) January 27, 2002

Game Notes

The game does not need to be played. The experts have a consensus, New England is overmatched and doesn’t have a chance. After all, has the unexpected ever made fools of the experts? Other than all season long for the New England Patriots…. Here is a worthwhile note to all evaluating this game: You do not reach the conference championship without being a very talented team. This is the #1 seed playing at home against the #2 seed. There have been landslide victories in both directions and it is undoubtedly a battle for at least 60 minutes. Before the season began, New England was counted out while Pittsburgh was the ugly stepsister of Tennessee and Baltimore. The experts were wrong on both counts and now seem poised for a trifecta!

There is little doubt the Steelers are a very talented team. What is in doubt is whether their talent suggests domination over the New England Patriots.

The team’s head to head record favors Pittsburgh 11-4 while the playoff record is tied at 1-1 with the home team winning each battle. In the last such match, it was a 7-6 victory in a defensive battle. For streaks the Steelers have been victors in 6 of the last 7 battles. This is, however, the playoffs. Veterans of quality line both rosters and both teams know the past is irrelevant, only the present will matter.

Opponent Review

The Steelers aren’t such a difficult read. They are the top rushing attack and the top rushing defense in the NFL in terms of total yards! It is this lofty statistic which most intimidates the experts into their Steeler selection frenzy. They have likewise maintained solid pass defense allowing 183.9 yards which is 4th best in the NFL. They control the clock, control the ball and boast the 3rd fewest points allowed in the League. While some of this is due to shoddy offenses within their division, the Steelers have an excellent and stingy defense to compliment their power offense.

Defensively the Steelers play a 3-4 base defense. The strength of their defense resides firmly in their exceptional linebacking corps. Defensive Rookie of the Year Kendrell Bell was a teammate of Richard Seymour. He has bolstered the speed of the ILB position along with Earl Holmes who may miss the game with a knee injury but will be well replaced by Mike Jones or John Fiala. Strong depth at Inside Linebacker is a significant part of their success with the 3-4 scheme. Jason Gilden and Joey Porter are exceptional at their outside positions. They use this talented group to provide well disguised pressure on opposing Quarterbacks. Defensive Coordinator Lewis uses 20 blitz packages in his weekly game plan, the results are shocking. Gilden, Porter and Bell have 30 sacks between the trio! The Steeler defensive line does not contain the big names of their linebackers but contains the near 300 pound per man mass which is needed to hold the middle of the line of scrimmage and allow the linebackers to make plays. This is the primary reason opponents convert only 34% of their third down opportunities. Of their first downs allowed, only 70 have been on the ground while forcing 160 to come via the pass. Their secondary is the more maligned because it isn’t as dominant as their run defense. Chad Scott and Dewayne Washington man the corner position with good size and decent speed. Lee Flowers is the punishing and outspoken strong safety while Brent Alexander is a speedy free safety. The safeties are solid and their vastly zone schemes are effective for their capabilities. Left in single coverage the corners may be at a disadvantage against fleet and agile receivers. Given linebacker support in their zones they have earned their #4 rating.

Offensively the Steelers expect to release a well rested Jerome Bettis on the Patriots. He is a power runner with surprising speed. Running laterally the Patriots have had a good record against Jerome but his strength is attacking straight up the field and running over and through tacklers. His line are all reasonably athletic 300 pound drive blockers to complement Jerome’s 5′11″ 260 pound assault. It is small wonder he averages nearly 5.0 yards per carry. When he needs a break, Amos Zereous brings in a more shifty speed back who averages over 5.2 yards per carry. It is a dangerous tandem indeed and to make matters more perilous for the opposition, Chris Fuamatu-Ma’afala is a Bettis clone in back-up duty. They challenge you to stop the run and on the off chance you manage, they have a pair of 1,000 yard receivers in Plaxico Burress and Hines Ward. At 6′5″, Plaxico is a giant of a receiver who happily leaps for jump balls over shorter opposition. Hines Ward prides himself at being the (contested) best blocking receiver in the game. The duo are dangerous, made more so by the best year ever for Pro-Bowl Quarterback Kordell Stewart. Steward has made excellent decisions and used his speed and athleticism to also grab more than 500 yards of rushing offense. In short Pittsburgh can beat you with their power rushing, their shifty speed rushing, their talented duo of receivers and strong armed Quarterback or as a last resort, upon the scrambling of the Quarterback. It is small wonder they have such a balanced first down attack which showcases 148 on the ground and 150 in the air.

Some might find Special Teams to be the chink in the armor of the best record in the AFC. Kris Brown would not be on the team if they could make the decision today. He has performed abysmally. His accuracy from 40-49 yards was just 6 of 15. He missed 5 other kicks from 30-39 yards. The Steelers simply cannot rely upon him at any range. Their punting has been adequate but not spectacular. Hank Poteat is not spectacular at punt or kick returning but Troy Edwards is a bit moreso. Their coverage teams are not without flaws and opponents have a better average at both than the Steelers. They do not, dispute Lewis’ exception last week, typically surrender scores on special teams.

Our Match-up Strength

While most folks list only the Special Teams edge, I think the underdog will play a big factor in this match. Pittsburgh took a practice day off to prepare for their Superbowl. All the hype has them already at the Big Easy and will make it a tougher challenge for them not to take it easy this game. Add the long layoff for the Bus, the confidence of beating their hated rival in the previous game and New England’s stance rises a notch. The Patriots are quite humble in the manner of their victory and are well aware the world, less a few resolute fans, are non-believers. Nothing inspires a proud athlete more than the doubt of the world.

Special Teams is an enormous edge. Adamatic Vinatieri makes winning kicks without room for doubt from the critics. Kris Brown has inspired only visions of misses. When two very capable teams battle it is more commonly a close game and in close games the better Field Goal unit and position will win more games than they lose.

Passing offense – the strength of New England’s offensive attack is the quick passes to speedy and sharp cutting receivers. Troy Brown specializes in finding the seams of a zone and exploiting the opportunity. Meanwhile David Patten has the speed to make them pay if they double Troy. The emergence of Wiggins last game will also force some linebacker respect.

Run Defense. The strength of the Steelers is a strength of New England. Since the arrival of Richard Seymour in week 4, the New England Patriot run defense has as a general rule been exceptional. Certainly they will be challenged by Pittsburgh attack but it is an edge to have a strength which is little realized. Carolina aside, the Patriots have not allowed a 100 yard rusher for months!

Our Match-up Weakness

The concept of running against Pittsburgh is daunting. Their #1 rating is well deserved as the trio of wide bodies: Kimo VonOelhoffen, Casey Hampton (or Kendrick Clancy) and Aaron Smith load up the middle very well allowing the speed and power of their linebackers to flow to the ball and make plays. Antowain Smith is a power assault but has struggled against top run defenses.

Blitzburgh’s sack potential is top in the league and New England’s offensive line has not handled blitzing linebacker as well as they would like. Worse still, Tom Brady has fumbled an inordinate amount of times this season. This could be the biggest point of concern for New England and is a serious edge for the Steelers Defense.

Kordell scrambling is also going to be difficult for New England. While they’ve had success in the past with a spy, his composure in the passing game makes the use of a spy far more difficult. Key first down conversions may be had by Kordell’s talented improvisations.

Crowd Noise is always an edge for the home team and never more than when playoff fever grips a region. New England will have trouble using an audible when Brady senses a blitz. Confusion results in mistakes and the crowd in Pittsburgh will undoubtedly be ready to provide a loud game.

Famous Amos is the precise style of back which most troubles New England. When they are geared up to handle a power game, Amos Zereoue will provide a dangerous different style. One to which the Patriots have shown a vulnerability in the recent past.

Strategy

Both sides know the Pittsburgh game plan. Feed their powerful running attack down New England’s throat. Force the linebackers or safeties to commit to help and then punish them with big play passing assaults. When your trio of backs are of the quality Pittsburgh brings, you will force respect for the run until the opponent adjusts and then you take advantage of the middle with your excellent possession receiver Plaxico Burress.

Defensively the Steelers want to punish New England’s short passing game. They will be ready to unload on Brady early and hope to rattle him as they did Elvis Grbac. Brady doesn’t rattle easy but pressure and pain can disrupt any game. The outside backers will be cheating towards the Wide Receiver screens. Trying to make New England pay for teir most common attack. It exposes them a bit to the run but they trust their inside backers to clean up the middle and their outside backers to have the needed closing speed.

New England has used the quick passes as their running game and know Pittsburgh’s vaunted run defense may have them over confident. Rutledge or Wiggins in motion can be very effective at picking off an inside linebacker for a run up the middle. New England’s middle run is the least respected form and is precisely where a surprise strike might work best. This until the outside backers pull closer to the line of scrimmage at which point the screens which New England has used very effectively can become their running game in compliment to Smith up the middle. The strategy was used against Miami to knock off Zach Thomas. It worked because of the absence of Gardener but Pittsburgh has an absent DT as a result of their scheme. Pittsburgh can most likely stop it with attention but it’s attention which will open up the more common New England gameplan.

Defensivley the Patriots need to get the most out of their middle/inside linebackers. The same group who stuffed Oakland on key short yardage situations must play larger still to halt the Steeler rushing attack without calling in safety reinforcement. Vrabel and Phifer must cheat a bit on the little used Tight End to attack the run more forcibly. Meanwhile New England must deliver on their promise of physical play on the receivers. They must confound Stewart into mistakes which isn’t easy this season. Their zone schemes are as complex as any but harder to employ against a tough running team like Pittsburgh. When 3rd and long arives, this is their time to confuse him with schemes. This requires shutting down the early down gains.

Prediction

The Game is still ultimately a physical battle. The team who gets more toughness and controls the line of scrimmage most frequently wins. New England got past their bye week(S!) by the end of the Raiders game. The style with which they closed out the Raider game is the intensity and style they need to beat Pittsburgh. There is nothing like a lead to silence a crowd as well as force Pittsburgh out of it’s desire to dominate on the ground. New England trickery nets an early score which Adam extends. Pittsburgh playing catch up has a mixed bag of success. Lots of short gains to punished receivers maintains the top red-zone defense. The mistakes for Stewart equal the gains and New England hangs on to shock the football world with a 23-14 victory! Jambalaya!!
