| Bowen outplays Bryant,
Over the past seven seasons, the Spurs' defensive game plan when facing the Los Angeles Lakers has seldom changed. It was always up to Bruce Bowen to find a way to slow down the pop-a-shot scoring machine that is Kobe Bryant. That plan never said anything of Bowen actually outscoring Bryant. But, after he did exactly that in the Spurs' 107-92 victory on Tuesday, nobody from San Antonio is complaining. Bowen, the Spurs' 12th-leading scorer heading into the game, flirted with a career high by scoring 23 points. Bryant, the NBA's leading scorer heading into the game, finished with 18. And the Spurs emerged with their fourth consecutive easy-does-it victory before a sellout crowd of 18,797 at the AT&T Center, after which Bowen admitted the obvious: Out-Bryanting Bryant was never part of the design.
Cox says he'll give Wayne Co. a chance to act on possible charges
Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said Thursday she'll hold a news conference Friday morning to discuss the matter. Cox also said that an investigation his office conducted into the mayor and his office that was released in June 2003 did not look at text messages between Kilpatrick and Beatty. Those messages show they were involved in a romantic and sexual relationship in 2002 and early 2003. At a trial last summer the mayor and Beatty denied that they were romantically involved or that they fired Deputy Police Chief Gary Brown. Brown went on to win a $9-million jury verdict in his wrongful firing lawsuit against the city. We werent asking who he was sleeping with, Cox said Thursday. In June 2003, Cox called a rumor of a wild party at the mayors Manoogian Mansion an urban legend.
Todays Letters: Angelo's working hard for Pasco
We had a portable radio with batteries, but couldn't get any weather reports on it. I can't believe there are all these people living in Florida but no kind of emergency warning system in place to warn them to take cover. Especially with all the hurricanes and storms that come through our state. Joan King, New Port Richey Share your views The Pasco Times welcomes letters from readers for publication.
