Steelers’ Haley worried about Chiefs, not revenge

Sports

November 9th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Todd Haley isn’t looking for revenge against the Kansas City Chiefs. The former Chiefs coach — now the Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator — says he’s trying to treat Monday night’s matchup between his former employer and his new one like just another game. Haley was fired by the Chiefs with three weeks left in the 2011 season. He insists he’s moved on and has no extra incentive to beat Kansas City. Haley joked he’ll be excited if the Steelers win and depressed if they lose, just like always. It hasn’t taken long for Haley to mesh with Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who is on pace to set career highs in attempts, completions and touchdowns.

Big Mac returns to SoCal as Dodgers hitting coach

Sports

November 8th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mark McGwire was hired Wednesday as hitting coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he’ll work with All-Star sluggers Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier. McGwire spent the past three seasons in the same job with the St. Louis Cardinals, where he starred during parts of his 16-year major league career. During McGwire’s tenure, the Cardinals led the National League in batting average (.269) and on-base percentage (.337), ranked second in runs (2,263) and fourth in slugging percentage (.416). He worked with All-Star sluggers Carlos Beltran, Lance Berkman, Matt Holliday and Albert Pujols, while helping develop 2011World Series MVP David Freese.

The job is a homecoming for McGwire, who is from the Los Angeles suburb of Pomona and currently lives in Orange County. He played college baseball at Southern California and was a member of Oakland’s 1989 World Series champion team. McGwire replaces Dave Hansen, who was let go last month and hired by the Seattle Mariners for the same job.

Chiefs’ Quinn rules out again with concussion

Sports

November 7th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Chiefs quarterback Brady Quinn has not been cleared for contact following his concussion and will miss his second straight start Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers.  Matt Cassel will start in Quinn’s place. Cassel was the starter the first five games of the season before sustaining a concussion and then losing the job during the bye week.

Quinn was hurt early in the Chiefs’ loss to Oakland on Oct. 28. He missed Thursday night’s game at San Diego, when Kansas City dropped to 1-7 with its fifth straight loss.  The former first-round draft pick returned to Kansas City late Tuesday after being advised by neurologists that he should avoid contact. Quinn has been cleared to take part in light workouts during the individual portion of practices.
