'Wild Ride'nets at least 15K for Feeney Park Foundation

By AUSTEN THIBAULT The Union Democrat

Calaveras County's biggest annual bicycle event, Mr. Frog's Wild Ride, was held Saturday, attracting nearly 300 ridersto tour part of the county.

Good weather brought 286 bicycl ists to the eighth annual event — some from as far as Colorado, according to Bob Reagan, one of the event's registrars.

"I talkedto the riders afterwards, and they just loved it," he said.

The event is split between a 50k and a 100k, which both take riders through Murphys and Angels Camp, with the 100k ridersalso traveling along New Melones.

Many bikers share a meal at Feeney Park after the ride.

"It's a very special thing," Reagan said. This year's attendancewas pretty typical, he said.

The event's popularity is a good thing for the nonprofit Feeney Park Foundation, for which the event is a primary fundraiser.Registration

have broughtin more than $15,000, but organizers said a total figure was not yet available.

The park serves thousands of youth a t hletes as the home field for the Ebbetts Pass Little League and Ebbetts Pass Youth SoccerLeague. Italso offers park-goers a disc golf course, skate park, walking trails, picnic areas and amphitheater.

The park's other main fundraiser is Gold Rush Days, a celebration of historic Mothfeesalone were estimated to er Lode culture, in October.

to the "greatest number" of "bene6cial uses."

The dam's construction and reservoir's filling a century ago "eliminated or seriously impaired" the environmental and recreational bene6ts of Hetch Hetchy Valley, the lawsuit contends.

State law also prohibits "unreasonable methods of diversion,"which the Hetch Hetchy systemembodies,thelawsuitargues.

"We have no quibble with San Francisco's use of Tuolumne River water. We want them to take the water after it flows through Yosemite National Park and return the Valley to the American people," Rosekrans said.

"We really are stressing that we think water supplies can be kept whole. We don't want to take anyone's water. We just want Yosemite back."

said Tuesday the study commissioned by Schwarzenegger didn't go far enough.

"The original task that was given for the Schwarzenegger study was to look at the cost and the value ofrestoration. They never looked at the value," he said. 'This is the next stepto have a conversation about the value of a restored Hetch Hetchy."

The lawsuit focuses on a section of the California Constitution that requires water be put

before he died in 1914.

The lawsuit asks the court for "declaratory relief" and an order requiring the City and County of San Francisco to prepare an engineering and 6nancing plan for routing water to the Bay Area without the reservoir.

The group hopes such a study "results in removal of the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, restoration of natural flow levels of the Tuolumne River through Hetch Hetchy Valley, and system improvements that will result in no loss of water supply reliability or power production."

Restore Hetch Hetchy, based in Oakland, has pushed for removal of the dam since 1999.

Lobbyingby the group and othersprompted former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to commission a study in 2006 looking at the feasibility of tearing the dam down.

It found removing O'Shaughnessy, restoring the valley and reworking the water storage and delivery system for San Francisco would cost between $3 billion and $10 billion.

Restore Hetch Hetchy six years later backed a ballot initiative, Proposition F, that would have required San Francisco to develop a plan like that requested in the lawsuit. Proposition F failed to win the support of Bay Area voters.

Early orest fires scorch 5.10 acres

Young Eagles Day

OBITUARIES Obituary policy

Union Democrat staff

Two fires scorched parts of the Stanislaus National Forest on Tuesday.

The first, the Two-Mile Fire, was reported by the Federal Aviation Administration about 9:30 a.m. in the Funks Meadow area of the MeWuk Ranger District, said Chris Schow, forest fire chief. He said the fire was likely called in to the FAA by a pilot flying over the area.

A Cal Fire helicopter, working in conjunction with the Forest Service, confirmed the report.

The fire, about 5 miles east of Confidence/ Sugar Pine, burned about 5 acres and took about eight hours to fully contain, Schow said.

No structures were threatened.

Schow said a Forest Service engine from Long Barn was already out patrolling the area.

"The lightning ... gets our people out looking."

"With the lighting over the past few days and thedrought,everyone knows how dry it is," Schow said.cWe're kind of primed for some activity."

Both burns were monitored through the

evening, and crews were to be on scene today to patrol the areas and do final mop up.

Schow said it's unusually early for these typesoffires,and people need tobe especially careful.

"We live in an environment that wants to burn sometimes," Schow said, "and these drought conditions we have right now, we just all need to be really aware ... It's a reminder to the public that isn't aware of how dry it is."

Debris burning is allowed on permissive burn days without a permit through May 1. However, Schow urges people to use their judgement on windy days.

Our editorial board and a reporter had an opportunity recently to sit down with Sonora Police Chief Mark Stinson.

This was regarding our recent editorials about the department withholding information we feel is required to be released under the state Public Records Act. The chief made this point in his defense: That when information some people deem offensive — like the name of an auto-accident victim, or unflattering details about a crimearereleased,thedepartment getstheangry calls.

Point taken. But, we both agreed, state law is clear on what information shall be released to the public from incident reports. This includes the names of all parties involved, plus the time, location and circumstances of an incident.

The decision to withhold otherwise public information that could be hurtful to some people really falls to the newspaperorothermedia outletreporting it.

In short: If you're miffed about something printed in the paper, bring it to us.

Special thanks to Stinson for hearing us out and coming to an accord.

As a lifelong outdoorsman, I am a strong supporter of any efForts to enhance California's outdoor heritage. I have wonderful memories of hunting and fishing with my dad, my daughters, &iends and siblings. This heritage is a vital part of life for many Californians, but it is slowly being eroded by a maze of expensive licenses, regulations, and restrictions.

This year, I am again running legislation to revitalize the sportfishing industry in California. The measure will increase tourism dollars and jobs and help the state maintain revenue for habitat restoration and protection. Senate Bill 345 (SB 345), the Sportfishing Stimulus Act of 2015, will replace the current calendar year fishing license with a license that is good for twelve consecutive months. It will also add a cheaper junior angler license to fishing license options. Assemblymember Frank Bigelow is a principal co-author of SB 345.

A recent study released by the California Sportfishing Leaguefound that a 55 percent drop in the number offishing licenses that have been bought in California since 1980.

If that trend continues, sales could drop another 49 percent in the next decade. This would be devastating to the families and communities depending on the tourism and jobs provided by this industry.

This year the California Sportfishing League, California's leading advocate for salt-water and fresh-water anglers, has joined Assemblyman Bigelow and me in promoting and advocating for these changes to the licensing process. :

Assuming that you, dear reader, are a human and not a column-consuming robot, you may be asking the question: What happens to the jobs of humans who were laboring under the impression that they could still do things machines couldn't?

That's a good question, says Zeynep Tufekci, an information expert at the University of North Carolina. Robots can now interview people at the border and identify phony documents, she writes. One imagines they can hire other machines.

Robotsare getting better at holding conversations, and their voices can now sound as if they are reacting in a heartfelt way to the human's remarks. More like Candice Bergen, one supposes, and less like ED-209, the robot in "RoboCop." ("Please put down your wea-pon. You now have 15 se-conds to com-ply.")

Marketers may soon use robots to deliver "mood-targeted" advertising. Sales robotsare being programmed to assess your level of interest and personality type. They've got the algorithms, mined from your digital activities, and may

Suppose you're looking at running shoes. What chance do you have against a sales machine programmed to respond to your every gaze and sigh — who knows your shoe size and past purchases ofathleticapparel?

What you need is a machine to fight the machine. You need a shopping robot who knows your style, colors, price range, needs and wants — but whose poker-facedpanel reactstothe salesmachine's pitch with supreme indifference.

You need a shopping robot who doesn't gasp with desire and shout "me want" into the sales machine's audio analyzer.

That way, your shopping robot can extract the maximum discount from the sales robot.

It sounds so efFtcient. Robots make the running shoes, sell the running shoes and buy the running shoes by the most cost-effective means possible.

But there's a problem. Who's going to pay for the running shoes? I mean, if a robot can do your job taking drink orders, reading ultrasounds or selling washing machines, how are you going to earn the wherewithal to buy stufP. "Machines are g etting smarter," Tufekci notes, "and they're coming for more and more jobs." Furthermore, the

Tuesday approved a prohibition on performances using wild animals, joining dozens of other places that frown upon thedisplay ofbearsand big cats, elephants and monkeys for human entertainment.

The ban applies to circuses, backyard birthday parties and filming of movies and television shows. Cats, dogs and otherdomesticated pets are exempt, as are animals used foreducational purposes.

The ordinance, which heads to Mayor Ed Lee for consideration, prohibits a number of exotic animals from being requiredto do tricks,spar or otherwise perform for an audience.

Attorney general heads for vote WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama's longstalled nominee for attorney general,federal prosecutor Loretta Lynch, is on her way to a confirmation vote after senators extricated themselves Tuesday from a partisan dispute over abortion that had stood in her way.

An agreement announced

by Senate leaders allowed both Republicans and Democrats to save face on a onceuncontroversial bill to help sex-trafficking victims that had turned into a litmus test on abortion.

Although that issue was not connected to Lynch, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell had been holding off her nomination vote until the trafficking issue was resolved.

The long delay since Lynch was nominated last fall has provoked increasingly agitat-

NAJRAN, Saudi Arabia — Saudi Arabia declared an end on Tuesday to its nearly monthlong "Decisive Storm" air campaign against Houthi rebels in Yemen, and announced the start of a more

limited military campaign aimed at preventing the rebels from operating.

Speaking at a news conference in Riyadh, spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asiri said the campaign of heavy airstrikes would be scaled down, but did not confirm whether they would stop altogether.

'There might be less frequency and the scope of the actions might be less, but there will be military action," Asiri said.

He said the goals of the coalition's new phase, called "Renewal of Hope," are to prevent Houthi rebels from "tar-

geting civilians or changing realit ieson theground."

Egyptian president gets 20 years CAIRO — Egypt's ousted Islamist president, Mohammed Morsi, was convicted of usingforce against protesters and sentenced to 20 years in

prison on Tuesday, the first verdict against him since he was removed by the military nearly two years ago.

The case was the latest in a series of mass trials on a range of charges against Morsi and other members of his Muslim Brotherhood, which Egypt's government has vowed to crush, branding it a

The Brotherhood went from decades as an underground organization to vault to powerafterEgypt's 2011 popular uprising t oppled longtime autocrat H osni Mubarak. The Brotherhood was the biggest winner in subsequent parliament elections, and Morsi — running as itscandidate — became Egypt's first freely elected president in 2012.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Pope Francis accepted the resignation Tuesday of a U.S. bishop who was convicted of failing to report a suspected child abuser, answering calls by victims to take action against bishops who cover up for pedophile priests.

Bishop Robert Finn, who led the Diocese of Kansas City-St Joseph in Missourifor nearly 10 years,resigned under canon law that allows bishops to resignearly for illness or some "grave" reason that makes them unfit for office.

But his resignation did not provide a specific reason.

Finn, 62, is 13 years shy of the normal retirementage of75.

In 2012, Finn was found guilty of one misdemeanor count of failure to report suspected abuse and was sentenced to two years of probation, making him the highest-ranking church official in the U.S. to be convicted of not taking action in response to abuse allegations.

Prosecutors say the diocese did not notify police until six months after concerns were raised in 2011 about the Rev. Shawn Ratigan, whose computers were found to contain hundreds of lewd photos of young girls.

Since the convictions, Hnn has faced pressure to resign, including local and national petition drives asking the pope to remove him from the diocese.

The removal was praised by Marie Collins, a prominent member of Francis' own sex abuse advisory board who had called for Finn to go and demanded that the Vatican hold bishops accountable when they fail to protect children.

'Things are moving slowly, as I have said many times, but they are moving in the right direction!" Collins tweeted.

Francis appointed Archbishop Joseph Naumann, head of the Kansas City, Kansas, diocese, to lead the Missouri diocese until Finn's successor is named. In a letter to the diocese, Naumann said he prayed

"that the coming weeks and months will be a time of grace and healing." Naumann will retain his duties in Kansas.

Finn, who apologized for Ratigan's abuse and took measures to make the diocesesaferfor children,urged followers to pray for his successor.

Sister Jeanne Christensen, a member of the Sisters of Mercy who has been a critic of Finn, said "it's sad that it took so long." '%'e have suffered a lot under him, and justice has finally been done," Christensen said. "Let's just wish him well. And now we need to get moving on to healingthe diocese."

For Kansas City resident Andrew Miller, 23, a lifelong member of Holy Spirit Catholic Church in Lee's Summit, Missouri, Enn's resignation will make attending Mass easier. After Finn's conviction in 2012, he said, he would say, "I'm a Catholic, but..." Now, "I'm ready to call myself a Catholic again."

The possible mandatory 25 percent reduction would be based on 2013 water use, accordingto Myers. He added that a reminder to conserve will be going out in the next water bill to the city's nearly 1,800 wa-

However, due to a new draft plan for implementationof those cuts being released on Saturday, the council chose instead to wait until the first week of May for the plan's adoption by the State Water Resources Control Board.

"Unfortunately, it's a little bit of a bouncing ball of a target," said Dave Myers, city engineer, who retracted his recommendation to the council to adopt the 25 percent reduction request.

Angels Camp may either face a mandatory 25 percent reduction in potable water use, or to simply regulate outdoor watering to two days a week based on the state's

Last year, the city cut its water use by 11.6percent overallunder a voluntary request for a 20 percent reduction, according to Myers. Landscape watering went down 23.3 percent, and single family residences cut 16.86 percent.

Industrial use was also cut 14.6 percent, but commercial and "institutional" — like government — use increased by 2 percent, according to Myers' numbers.

But last year's voluntary reductions were impressive, and the notice didn't go out until summer, which is an indication that the cityis capable of the 25 percent cut, City Administrator Michael McHatten said.

Rocca Park itself was also a community project that started in the early 1970s, said Karl Rodefer, a member oftheTuolumne County Board of Supervisors.

After the Sonora Rotary Club "saw how much fun we were having," they offered to help too, Gormely said.

"When you have singleness of purpose, anything can be accomplished,"said Jim O'Neill, of the Sonora Rotary and Jamestown Promotion clubs.

The cost to T uolumne County was a mere $4,000, Gormely said.

Ittook 1,100hours oflabor to restorethe gazebo,many of which were donated by the project' slead carpenter,Tom McMullen, of Jamestown, who worked eight hours a day for nearly three months, Rodefer said.

McMullen said he was eating lunch one day in Rocca Park when work on the gazebo first began.

"I sawthe rotting gazebo and thought, ' I'd like to restore that.'Then two or three years later, I saw them working on it," McMullen said.

M cMullen asked if h e could help, and for nearly three months, he and his dog, Rowdy, led the volunteer crew.

Gormely said similar acts of community spirit — including donated lumber, paint and other supplieshelped the project along and kept costs down.

That community spirit and generosity was "the most meaningful part of the project," he said.

The original request was to purchase the vehicle with the asset-forfeiture money, $27,500 from a Homeland Security grant and the rest from Sheriff"s Office budget reserves.

Mele said he's in talks with the state Office of Emergency Servicesabout potential alternate sources of funding, as well as exploring the possibility of partnering and sharing the vehicle with a neighboring county.

According to Lenco Industries Inc., the MedCat is designed to meet the requirements of both SWAT and EMS teams. It comes equipped with b ulletproof steel, blast windows, oxygen tanks and compartments for other medical supplies and tactical gear.

Mele said he still plans to purchase the vehicle in the future, but he couldn't put an estimate on the timeframe.

"I think the support to purchase this vehicle is there, not only publicly but also with the board," he said.'You can't put a value on anybody's life."

The county is also looking to come up with about $11 million for a new jail, in addition to about $33 million expected to come from the state.

Due to the absence of County

Administrator Craig Pedro, the boardtabled a discussion scheduled for Tuesday to look at a revised funding plan.

Also at Tuesday's meeting, the board unanimously approved increasing the salariesfor allcounty employees by 2 percent beginning July 1.

The board, however, declined to increase their own pay.

"As an elected official res ponsible for setting t h e salary of yourself, it's a difficult position to be in," said District 3 Supervisor Evan Royce."I don't think any of us think the 2 percent is worth the headache."

About 600 county employees will receive the 2 percentraise,totaling about $850,000.

The raises are in exchange for extending labor negotiations another six months while the county awaits the completion of a compensation

Tuolumne CountyVisitors Bureau Executive Director Lisa Mayo is one of the organizers of the upcoming tourism summit, slated for May 5. how the Tuolumne County Visitors Bureau connects with Visit California and how that partnership helps tourism in Tuolumne County and the surrounding regions.

Although some sessions, like how to leverage marketing dollars,are geared toward owners and business decision makers, "front line" people, like front-desk staff and others, are encouraged to attend, Mayo said.

Those are the people who give

tourists local information and often offer suggestions on things to do or placesto go,she explained.

The day will conclude with a"Taste of Tuolumne," where local products will be offered for sampling.

The cost of the summit, which includes a Cinco de Mayo lunch, is $50 per person or $35 for bureau partners.

Reservations should be made by April 29 by calling 533-4420.

"We area community company, and

we try to give back as much as we can," Benites said. "I think it's a great thing.

Sometimes you gotta reach out and help people."

They call the newspaper with fresh numbers early every morning for that day's weather page, on the back of the sports section. The only pay is an annual gathering - sometimes a picnic hosted by the newspaper, sometimes dinner at an area restaurant - where they are honored and thanked. Necessary equipment, which the volunteers must provide themselves, are a thermometer that records the high and low temperatures of the day and a rain gauge. They must also submit snow depths and melt snow, when they get it, to include its water content with their precipitation. Volunteers are needed right now in, Tuolumne, Pinecrest and San Andreas.

Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer may callPam Orebaugh 588-4546 or e-mail orebau h Ouniondemocrat.com

Was doctor too quick to send patient to ER? DEAR DR. ROACH:My husband is 64 years old and recently wascomplaining of minor abdominal pain that was not going away. There were no other symptoms, like nausea or vomiting. He went to his primary care doctor, who gave him a blood test and told him to schedule a sonogram to see what was going on. The blood work came back the next day with an amylase level of 398, and he was told to go to the emergency room, where he had the sonogram and more blood work. The amylase was down to 290 at the ER. His pancreas and gall bladder were fi ne.The ER doctor recommended a follow-up with a GI special ist,asmy husband has ahistory of ulcers.

You may have other reasons for questioning his expertise, and if you lack confidence in the doctor, you should change. However, I spoke with an ER doctor, who also felt this wasn't an inappropriate use of the ER. DEAR DR. ROACH:I'm pushing 90 years old.

Todayin history

Today ls Wednesday, April 22, the 112th day of 2015. There are 253 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in Hlstory: On April 22, 1915, the first full-scale use of deadly chemicals in warfare took place as German forces unleashed chlorine gas against Allied troops at the start of the Second Battle of Ypres (EE'-preh) in Belgium during World War I; thousands of soldiers are believed to have died.

On this date: In 1864, Congress authorized the use of the phrase "in God We Trust" on U.S. coins. in 1952, an atomic test in Nevada became the first nuclear explosion shown on live network television as a 31-kiloton bomb was dropped from a B-50 Superfortress. in 1954, the publicly televised sessions of the Senate Army-McCarthy hearings began. in 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson opened the New York World's Fair. in 1970, millions of Americans concerned about the environment observed the first "Earth Day." in 1983, the West German news magazine Stern announced the discovery of 60 volumes of personal diaries purportedly written

by Adolf Hitler; however, the diaries turned out to be a hoax. in 1990, pro-Iranian kidnappers in Lebanon freed American hostage Robert Polhill after nearly 39 months of captivity. in 1994, Richard M. Nixon, the 37th president of the United States, died at a New York hospital four days after suffering a stroke; he vvas 81.

Afiera four-month search,Summerville High School has found its new head varsity football coach and it found someone who bleeds black and orange.

37-year-old Tuolumne resident, and Summervillegraduate, Sean Leveroos was named head coach following a board meeting Tuesday night.

For Leveroos, a 1994 Bear grad, being awarded the job to oversee the program ofhisalma mater,isa dream come true.

"It is still a surreal feeling," said Leveroos. 'There is nothing like Friday night lights, and I truly won't know what that feels like until game night, that first Friday night."

Leveroos played defensive back and running back during his two years on

the Bears' varsity squad. As a senior, his Bears posted a 7-3 record under head coach Dave Woods.

Following graduation, Leveroos attended Modesto Junior College and continued his football career.

Following his time at MJC, he transferred to Sacramento State University and in 2000, graduated with a degree in kinesiology. He would later earn a masters degree in sports science, &om the United States Sports Academy.

2000 was a busy year for Leveroos.

H e became a college graduate,married his wife, Jessica, and was hired to be the head freshman football coach at Riverbank High School.

In 2002, Leveroos was promoted to head varsityfootball coach at Riverbank, and led his Bruins to the playoffs for the first time in the school's history.

Following success at Riverbank, Leveroosaccepted aposition atM odesto Junior College, coaching the receivers. He remained for three seasons, while also teaching at Central Catholic and Somerset Middle School, both in Modesto.

"Thereisa different culture depending on where you are," Leveroos said.

"At Riverbank,we had adifferentgroup of kids than we had at MJC, and that is even different than what we have up here in the hills. Regardless of where you go, if you plant the belief of winning, and you believe in it, you will have kids that will follow."

"The crowd support was j ust o u t standing," s a i d runner Tiffany Nunes. "I couldn't believe how many people came out, especially in the bad weather. The race exceeded expectations by 1,000 times. People can say Boston Strong and try to explain what it means, but you don't know Boston Strong until you are there. I couldn't have asked for anything better."

asked Leveroos to return to Tuolumne and become the defensive coordinator

"When Ben Watson got the head coaching job in 2006, he asked me ifI was ready to come home," Leveroos said.

"The coaching staff and I have a different challenge in &ont of us," Leveroos said.

"We have an added sense of expectation to continue with the success of the program.

We are going to have to do the same things that we did before, which is paying attentionto details,get in the weightroom, and continue the senseofbelieving that we are not just competing, but competing for championships."

Leveroos has no intention in making a major change to the program. He is returning a staff that has roamed the Bearssidelines for years.

Not only has his staff been in the Summerville program as coaches, but Mike Oliva, Ryan Wynne, Mike Brennan, Kurt Byers, and Don Perkins, have allworn the Summerville orange and black on the gridiron.

"All those coaches wanted to be back," Leveroos said. 'They reached out and wanted to be a part of the next chapter of Summerville football. When I got advice from coaches who are not up here in the hills, the first suggestion I was told was to surround myself with guys who refuse to lose, and that is what I did. Also, I want guys who not only refuse to lose, but refuse to lose with good character."

Leveroos has become the fourth Bears head coach in the last 30-years. He follows Darcy Wingo ( 1985-1988, 2003) Dave Woods (19902002), Gary Smith (2004-5) and Ben Watson (1989, 20062014). Leveroos hopes to re-

"I have young boys coming up down the road, so I have to findoutifIam a good enough coach tobe able to coach my own boys," Leveroos said. "I plan on it. I plan on being here until death, not coaching until death, but being part of the Bears program till death."

Leveroos has a different challenge before him that few coaches that came before him truly had.

will become further down the road.

"When people ask me how the season is going to go, I want to know if they are talking about the football team, or the kids," Leveroos said. "My philosophy is we are trying to turn these boys into future

leaders. I can't wait to have some ofthese former players that we have coached, come back and be part of the alumni and coaching experience."

City Council approves plan for NFL stadium near lA CARSON (AP) — A local City Council on Tuesday night unanimously voted to clear the path for a proposed $1.7 billion stadium near Los Angeles that could become the shared home to the NFL's San Diego Chargers and the Oaldand Raiders.

The 3-0 by the Carson City Council marks a significant step forward for plans to lure the NFL back to the Los Angeles area after two-decades without a teamin the nation's secondlargest media market.

The next moves now belong to the teams,and totheleague.

GREEN Continued from PageCl overlooked second-round pick to a candidate for Defensive Player ofthe Year. The versatile forward is the vocal leader of the NBA's No. 1 defense, and the way he shut down Davis in the fourth quarter Monday night put the Warriors up 2-0 in the first round playofF series.

Green is averaging 14.5 points, 12 rebounds and six assists in the first two games of the series, which resumes Thursday night in New Or-

Mayor Albert Robles likened the absence of the NFL in greater LosAngelesto thestate'sdeep drought. ' There are two ~ that a r e needed here in Southern California," Robles said after the vote. "One of them is rain ... the other is football.

And today, hopefully, we took care ofthat,because footballis coming to Carson."

The vote came with a loud cheer &om a crowd dotted with Raiders jerseys and Chargers banners, and faced virtually no opposition &om the room.

Mike Haynes, who played for the

leans. But his contributions go beyond the box score.

"He just always finds a way to be in the mix. There is no teaching that," Curry said.

Green's game is generated by the same method that helped him win two state titles at Saginaw High School in Michigan, reach two Final Fours at Michigan State and take home Big Ten Player of the Year honors as a senior.

He just outworks peopleand lets them hear about it.

'That's kind of how I am.

It could be in practice. And if I'm like really going, I'll just start talking junk to anybody,"

then-LA Raiders in their 1984 Super Bowl title year and also grew up in the area, spoke strongly in favor of the stadium.

"It might not be too long 'til sometime another local kid will have an opportunity to play in a Super Bowl right down the street &om here," Haynes said.

Council members could have opted to putthe issue before Carson voters, but instead chose to approve it out right themselves as state law allows.

The Carson project is one of two stadium proposalsto surface in the

Green said. "And all I need to do is getone.IfIgetone person to respond to me, I'll get going quick. And I'll start talking to everybody.

"Fll start talking to the team. If I'm on blue, I'll start talking to white. If they don't respond, Ill start talking junk to blue — the same team. If they don't respond, Fll talk to coaches and video guys, whoever. All I need is one person.

It gets me going. I don't know what it is."

Green had a close relationship with former Warriors coach Mark Jackson in his first two seasons. Jackson, an

Los Angeles area this year: St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is part of a group planning to build an 80,000seat stadium in Inglewood, roughly 10 miles &om downtown Los Angeles.

The sudden rush to Los Angeles is tempered by a 20-year history of disappointment for fans. A string of stadium proposals have come and gone since the Rams and the Raiders fled Southern California after the 1994 season. Last month, the Anschutz Entertainment Group spiked plans for a field in downtown Los Angeles, although Mayor Eric Garcetti has sug-

ordained minister who never cussed, had a more laidback approach with players.

Green credits Kerr's fiery

attitude for bringing out the best in him, comparing the bond to the one he built with Tom Izzo at Michigan State.

He pinpoints an exchange during a home game earlier this season as a turning point in the relationship.

"He said something to me on the court, and I started yelling back," Green said. "I'm like, Whoa.' He said something else, and I caught myself the first time, and I start yelling back again. So now I walk

gestedthat itcould berevivei.

The Kroenke blueprint envisions a $1.86 billion stadium rising on the site of a former horse track, as part of a nearly 300-acre development of homes, parks and ofFice space.

Under current rules, the next opportunity for a team to file to relo-

to the bench and I'm like, 'My bad.' And he's like, 'No, I love that fire.'And then I startei to notice he would do stufFto get me amped up. I'm like, 'OK, kind of treading down that Tom Izzo road again."'

Sometimes Green's emotions can be misinterpreted.

During pre-draft i n terviews, he said he was asked about TV cameras catching him yelling at Izzo on the sidelines. Green said that's just how they communicated.

The same goes for teammates. Warriors center Andrew Bogut said he learned early on not to get Green talk-

ing in practice but to feed ofF the energy he brings in games.

"He hustles. He's a dog," Bogut said.

In his first two years, Green provided key minutes ofF the bench, but mostly as a situational defender. It wasn't until two-time All-Star power forward David Lee missed 24 of the first 25 games at the start of the season with a strained

left hamstring that Green got a chance to win the starting job.

"I thought Draymond would startto emerge," Kerr said.

"But I had no idea he was this good.
