We’ll dive deep into what makes the film work and why you should watch it. Up this week: Westerns. Westerns are a genre defined by their past. Limited in their storytelling capac- ities, the old fashioned, John Wayne-type westerns entertain in their own way. But the best westerns refresh the genre. One of these is the 2007 film “3:10 to Yu m a .” Originally a short story by Elmore Leonard, “3:10 to Yuma” was made into a film in 1957. Its suspense and cinematography set it apart from other westerns of the time.

Taylor kicks off indoor track season with TROJAN NATION IWU invitational 11 TheEchoNews.com February 8, 2013 FRIDAY THE WATERBOY

This is not a column titled after the 1998 comedy with Adam Sandler. It’s a place to take a break from the action, step over to the bench and let me refresh you with a cold cup of sports knowledge. Every other week, I’ll give a response to the professional and college sports world’s latest controversy. Blowout to Blackout

Jeff Yoder Sports Co-Editor

Sibling rivalry, Beyonce’s halftime perfor- mance and another slew of unsatisfacto- ry commercials were all minor storylines on Super Bowl Sunday. In the end, the top story from Super Bowl XLVII was a 34-min- ute power outage that sent the world into panic and the 49ers into a scoring fren- zy that nearly carried them back from a 22-point deficit. Had San Francisco pulled off the come- back, the blackout would have been to blame. The Ravens had the 49ers in their rearview mirror with a 21-6 lead at halftime. They stepped on the gas even harder when Jacoby Jones opened the second half with a 108-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. With a 28-6 lead early in the third quarter, the Superdome went super dark. Officials called the power outage an “abnormality.”

We’ve all seen them. Thanks B-dubs. You wasted a half hour of America’s life. Regardless of what happened to the lights on Sunday, the delay caused the game to last four hours and 14 minutes—the longest Su- per Bowl ever. After the power returned in the third quarter, it was the 49ers who stormed back, scoring 17 unanswered points in less than five minutes. Baltimore finally responded with a field goal that made it 31-23. Down eight, another Kaepernick touchdown brought the ’Niners within two, but the two-point conversion was no good. Another Ravens’ field goal made it 34-29. Finally, Super Bowl XLVII ended with big brother picking on little brother. Ravens’ coach John Harbaugh had to punt the ball away with 12 seconds left. Instead, he instruct- ed punter Sam Koch to waste time in the end zone before running out for a safety, giving the 49ers two points but just four seconds on the clock. Little brother Jim could only watch. The final play was a return by San Fran- cisco’s Ted Ginn that didn’t have a prayer. The Ravens won the game 34-31 despite a half-hour blackout, a 17-point surge by the 49ers and San Francisco’s quarterback run- ning for more yards (62) than Baltimore’s running back Ray Rice (59). Ray Lewis ended his NFL career by taking some of Beyonce’s halftime advice; he “put a ring on it,” and walked off the field for the last time as a Super Bowl champion.
