For
Wildcats, win on the House Wildcats' secret weapon: Rim
It's tough to win a basketball game when the other team's best
defender is a sturdy, steadfast, immovable object who makes his
presence known each and every trip down the floor.
Senior
guard, by own admission, 'sucked' On the rare occasions when
Stadium Way thumps and 14,203 fill Wells Fargo Arena to the brim
to see the Wildcats and the Sun Devils clash for trash-talking
rights, dreams can exist for ASU of upsets and runs and sugarplums.
But Wedneday night it all came crashing down with a resounding
thud.
Wildcat
freshman guards Arenas and Gardner combine to tear down House
Many would think guarding ASU's Eddie House is an impossible task,
but don't tell that to UA guards Gilbert Arenas and Jason Gardner.
House was unable to get anything going against the two-guard combo
-- they held him to just eight points of on 4 of 14 shooting,
including 0 of 6 from behind the 3-point line.
New-look
Cougars ready for ASU The BYU baseball team comes to town
with a new head coach and a new outlook. This new outlook will
face the Sun Devils Thursday afternoon at Packard Stadium at 3
p.m.
Editorial:
U.N. needs strong policy, not inspector On Aug. 2, 1990, Iraqi
forces, under the direction of Saddam Hussein, invaded Kuwait.
On Jan. 17, 1991, the United States launched an aerial attack
on Baghdad after five months of failed political negotiations.
On June 8, 1991, we celebrated our victory. Of what? On Jan. 26,
2000 -- a near decade after the conflict began -- there is still
little resolution. The United Nations appointed a new lead weapons
inspector for the organization's Monitoring, Verification and
Inspection Commission.
MacArthur's
widow remembered as general's aide, compass, anchor A wonderful
woman passed from the scene Friday when Jean MacArthur died. She
was 101. The widow of Gen. Douglas MacArthur leaves a legacy of
courage, grace and imagination. She never wanted public notice;
she preferred to remain in the shadow of her great. She always
referred to her husband as "The General" or "Sir Boss."
Media,
politics fuel 'Crisis Culture' You could see the disappointment
in their faces. The clock struck midnight in yet another city,
and they could only report, "Nothing has gone awry in Paris, or
any other city thus far." But then, a glimmer of hope: "London
is only an hour from midnight, and of course, there's always New
York!" The news media perched like a vulture, searching the world
for any small hint of disaster.
Legislation
may be necessary to cure apathy The flu season is making local
headlines, but another disease, potentially far more dangerous
to the lives of Arizonans than the flu, is making the rounds.
Voter apathy is again running at epidemic proportions in this
state. The disease appears at the beginning of each election season
and slowly saps the will of the people to participate in the political
process.
