You cheated*.* and
we like it*
So, it's time once more for Peter
Hockaday’s Weekly Sports Poll, and
we must say that last week we noticed
a little fishy business going on with
our poll. A little “cheating,” if you’d
like to be so harsh.
You see, we announced the poll
in Thursday’s paper, a few daysafter
we actually put it on the Web site.
The question was “Who has the best
chance to win a national title?” at last
week's NCAA Championships.
Of course John Stiegeler had already
won the javelin championship.
However, after we notified you of the
poll’s existence, distance runner Jason
Hartmann’s votes kept climbing.
Hartmann, who finished third in the
5,000-meter race Wednesday night,
would eventually win the poll with
49.2 percent of the vote. Stiegeler,
who won the javelin, and Santiago
Lorenzo, who won the national
decathlon title, each received
16.9 percent.
This week we’ve got a doozy of a poll
for you all. In a tie-in with our
season-ending “Emerald Emmie”
awards (to be announced in Monday’s
final issue), we ask you which Oregon
athlete was the Most Valuable Player
of the 2000*01 season.
So who was MVP? Was it women’s
basketball star Angelina Wolvert,
quaterback Joey “Heisman”
Harrington, women’s soccer’s all-time
leading scorer Chalise Baysa or
Lorenzo, the national champ?
Go online to www.dailyemerald.com
and click the “sports” link to vote
in the poll.
And this week, please don’t cheat.
The brief is now over.
Go vote.

The Padres also made their pres
ence felt in Portland, as they picked
up the resurrected Portland Beavers
as their Triple-A affiliate.
“San Diego has been terrific,”
Beban said. “I’ve know Kevin
Towers (Padres general manager
and native of Medford) a long time
and they were my number one
choice. They draft a lot of high lev
el college players, so that will be
good for us.”
Tuesday marked the first day of
the Major League Baseball Draft
and the Padres selected 12 college
players in the first 14 rounds, in
cluding Oregon State outfielder
Josh Carter..
Carter may be one of the 25 or so
players wearing an Emeralds uni
form on June 19 when they open up
their campaign on the road against
Yakima.
“We’re all very excited to start the
season,” Beban said. “The success
of the Seattle Mariners has whet the
appetite for the fans in this commu
nity to come out to the park. I can’t •.
wait.
“June’s my favorite month.”

Horoscope by Linda C. Black
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 6). You and
your mate have found the buried treasure. Now
what are you going to do with it? Learn about
investing this year, and make both of your fu
tures secure. Even a small amount, planted with
care and nurtured, can grow into abundance.
Don’t wait for others to take care of you. You're
the smart one. Take care of them.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10
is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8

than you were yesterday. This is perfectly natu
ral, and it could save you a great deal of money.

thing you want for your home.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6
— How long has it been since you bought a
new outfit or a new hairdo? Sure, you like the
way you've always been, and you should. But

little more confident More charismatic, natu
rally. Might as well show off the new you.
GEMINI (May 21 -June 21) — Today is an 8
—You may start to feel more protective about
feelings you once professed boldly. This does
n't mean you're losing interest. It could mean
you're starting to gel serious. Select the perfect
CANCER (June 22-Juiy 22) — Today is a 4
— Mercury went retrograde on Monday, which
explains some of the breakdowns you've expe
rienced. Those breakdowns are associated with
communication errors, as you may ret Jl.
Hand-deliver whatever you can. That'll help —
if you don't get a flat tire. Keep laughing!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8 —
Discretion is advised. You're gathering all kinds
of information, as well you should. People tend
to mist you with it. Prove you're worthy of that
trust by keepmawhat you hear to yourself. You
don't have all thp pieces of the puzzle yet.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)—Today is a 5 —
Others are looking upon you with favor. You're
smart, you're cute, and you're learning quickly.
Who wouldn't be charmed? Don't ask, just fo
cus on the people who are smiling on you, and
keep coming up with new questions —careful
ly considering each consequence, of course.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 9 —
You have an unfair advantage. No, don't stop to
try to balance things out. This time it will be

a good teacher as well as a student, and every
body will love you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6
—You're getting luckier in love, in a very sub
tle way. It'll be most noticeable inside of com
mitments. Also, get your financial situation
straightened out. The more secure you feel, the
more love you'll generate.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)—Today
is an 8 —You'll be spurred to take action, and
why not? The person you find most irritating is
actually your best coach. He or she won't let
you rest any longer, but that's OK. You were
just about to get going anyway, right *
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is
a 6 — There's still a lot of confusion, which
you're managing quite well. You're getting bet
ter at it as you gain experience. You're also get
ting luckier. Listen to your guardian angel, not
your personal doubt demon.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) —Today is an
8 —You've got a lot of friends, and maybe even
a lot of people you're dating. Most of your rela
tionships are intellectual, but you may start
feeling an urge to settle down. You may even
want to make, or remake, a commitment. Don't
be afraid. It'll be wonderful.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 5
—Your luck is getting better, especially in love.
Since that’s your specialty, you know how to
make every little bit count. Let the storm rage
around you. Be an island of serenity. Not for
your sake, but for the sake of the others.
