— A 78-year-old Daleville man was arrested this week on allegations he had used his home computer to access child pornography
Michael Dean Morrow was taken into custody Wednesday after a search warrant was served at his home in the 6500 block of South Delaware County Road 800 West
preliminarily charged with two counts of possession of child pornography
was released from the Delaware County Jail after posting a $10,000 bond
According to a report by an Indiana State Police detective
the investigation leading to Wednesday's raid began in September when an Indianapolis police detective received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
Authorities determined images — showing "both prepubescent male and female minors engaging in sexual acts" both with other children and adults — had been accessed by a computer that was allegedly in Morrow's home
Morrow "admitted to using his computer" to access child pornography
The Daleville man reportedly acknowledged he was aroused by such images and said he looked at child pornography "weekly," the court document said
Delaware County Prosecutor Eric Hoffman's office will determine whether formal charges will be filed
Court records reflect no prior arrest or charges for Morrow

The least Weird Islander ever appreciated the efforts of everyone he played with
Mike and Dan celebrate Ken Morrow and some of the Weird Islanders he played with in his incredible career
Morrow was the exact opposite of a Weird Islander - he was a reliable
steady presence for a decade as the Islanders dominated the NHL
the lanky defenseman is far more normal and humble than a gold medalist and a four-time Stanley Cup champion should be
But as we trace Morrow’s career throughout his memoir - Miracle Gold
and a Lifetime of Islanders Hockey - we learn about some of the other characters that played roles
various Hall of Famers and a couple of short time Islanders that he mentions in the book
what Morrow is like as a person and a player and his importance in Islanders history
But as a journalist that’s followed the Islanders and covered them for a number of outlets
Kreda also tells us about players like Alex McKendry and Hector Marini
who managed to score massive goals during the dynasty run and get their names on the Cup despite not being around long
It’s not often that we get to talk about Islanders greats on this show, and it was equally satisfying to get a couple of perfect Weird Islanders in there as well. This episode is very special and we can’t thank Allan enough for coming on. You should buy Miracle Gold today from wherever you can
We talk a lot about Ken Morrow (naturally)
so let’s focus on our two Weird Islanders:
We’re always open to suggestions about other Weird Islanders to discuss

Cue "We Are the Champions" as the Ohio University Dance Team came home from Nationals as champions in more than one way
The Ohio University Dance Team (OUDT) has entertained and championed generations of Bobcats at various University and community events since its founding in 1991
competing at the Dance Team Union College Classic Nationals
After spending the last two years in the runner-up spot in Division I Pom
the dancers made team history this year by winning their very first National Championship
senior captain and Marketing & Business Analytics major in the College of Business
has been working towards this moment since stepping foot on campus four years ago.
We started competing at the national level my first year
and I’m so incredibly proud of what the team has accomplished in such a short time
especially from reigning Division I Pom National Champions Central Michigan University
who held the top spot at the end of the first day going into finals.
“Last year we ranked first going into Pom finals and Central Michigan ended up taking the title,” recalled Sydney Dadosky
junior captain and Multimedia Major in the Scripps College of Communication
so going into finals in second place this year
we knew we really needed to come together as a team to apply the feedback from the judges and deliver an epic performance for finals
The team also made history with their innovative Division I Jazz performance choreographed to AC/DC’s classic hit "Thunderstruck." A risky departure from the traditional lyrical routines of years past (including last year’s 9th place finish)
the team’s preliminary performance catapulted them directly to 4th place in the finals where the team ultimately earned an exceptional 2nd place finish out of 22 teams competing
“Working through our jazz choreography is unlike anything I’ve ever done,” recalled Ellie Nuspl
junior captain and Exercise Physiology major in the College of Health Sciences and Professions
“We always challenge ourselves with technique
but working with Tribe99 choreographer Adrienne Arruda this year helped us realize how important a healthy team culture and effective leadership are to our ability to truly perform as a unified team
including that I have what it takes to be a leader!”
academics are not just a priority for the team
Dancers earn academic credit through the School of Dance while on the team
but also for engaging in leadership and team development
is always in awe of the team’s performance ability
but was most impressed by the leadership and confidence exhibited at the competition.
“It’s been so gratifying to see their confidence and leadership skills develop through these experiences
it’s rare and rewarding to see that growth first-hand
especially in the unique context of the performing arts
The dynamic power of interdisciplinary experiential learning was on full display throughout the competition weekend!”
The judging panel also saw something special in the OHIO team beyond their performance on the floor
bestowing the team with the Champion Teamwear “Champion Award” for 2025
The award is given annually to one team at the competition who best exemplifies Champion’s values of Passion
Teamwork and Innovation through the team’s performances
a positive team and fan presence at the competition
“I could not be more thrilled for our program,” said OUDT Director Dr
“Our placements are a result of students’ hard work
The Champion Teamwear Champion Award confirms that we are living our values both on and off the dance floor.”
The award includes a plaque and custom team apparel prize package
which add to the team’s already impressive haul including a trophy
and jackets celebrating their Division I Pom National Championship and 2nd place Division I Jazz trophy
While this year has been one for the history books
the future looks brighter than ever as the team prepares to celebrate its 35th anniversary in 2026.
“In addition to thanking our OHIO Alumni and donors
we want to recognize the Chaddock + Morrow College of Fine Arts and School of Dance for their continued support of our expanded mission
and the Offices of the President and Provost for championing experiential learning
including the Undergraduate Experiential Learning Awards for students and Undergraduate Experiential Learning Stewardship Grants for faculty which partially supported the team’s participation in this year’s competition

It was fitting that early on the morning of Saturday
and with her passing ushered in a spring rain for all of the flowers to come
she grew up the second youngest daughter of six siblings
Kris loved to be outside and ride horses with Bud
She also loved attending the Greek Easters of her maternal grandfather
Kris participated in countless activities throughout her youth and was the Yell Mistress for the Murray High Pep club
and they were married in the Salt Lake Temple in an epic 70s-style wedding
Kris pursued an English degree from the U of U before moving to Wyoming for Mike's career
She went on to become a paralegal and worked for some of the most prestigious firms in both Oregon and Utah
Mike and Kris moved all over the west and midwestern USA while raising their children
She fell deeply in love with the Oregon coast
Matthew was born at 24 weeks and passed away a few short hours after his birth
She spent their time growing up taking them to Cubs games
and protecting them and their baseball cards from tornadoes
sneaking her kids strawberry mentos in church
and moving to different homes throughout Salt Lake and Davis Counties (much to Mike's chagrin)
She loved to watch her boys find success in their endeavors and their respective sports
A natural Martha Stewart in almost every sense
or random out-of-towner was safe on any holiday
receiving a homemade card and thought-out gifts just like anyone else in the room
All friends of her sons and daughters-in-law were subject to her praise and support on Instagram in their side hustles and celebrations
as well as comfort and care during their sorrows
She was an absolute sucker for a school or sport fundraiser
always jumping at the chance to support anyone with their goals
She was a true mother to everyone even remotely connected with her
she would tell you that her grandchildren are her most cherished treasures
and even death would not rob her of the opportunity to see all of them one last time
When she found out her diagnosis was terminal
she was absolute in her desire to “not be a burden,” and even though she could never be a burden to any of us
her bakers dozen grandchildren (in birth order) Sophia
Wicket and Solo (who never left her side at the end)
whom we know she is so excited to see all grown up
The void she will leave on this earth is indescribable
She was the only grandmother for nine of her 13 grandchildren
a ‘snap out of it’ talk if you needed one
the family has asked that any donations be made to the Huntsman Cancer Institute
who worked tirelessly to accommodate a bunch of emotional wrecks through this part of the grieving process
and understanding; we cannot thank them enough

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Paul Quick Morrow, a one-of-a-kind husband, father, brother, son, amazing uncle, and friend. Paul took his final ride on March 21, 2025, at the age of 61. While we are still trying to figure... View Obituary & Service Information

All inherited by marriage but she was ours and we were hers
And though we were all very different with different goals and personalities she loved us all so much
Christmas was the biggest family event at The Morrow house…
and the most beautifully wrapped presents she had spent weeks wrapping using a hot glue gun so we couldn’t peek
She watched with delight as we would all open the same gift
usually a piece of jewelry that she had picked out months before
She arrived to Brandon from Bruce MS and once she married Robert and they had Dowden
She planted her roots and began volunteering all her time to making Brandon better
Making it all better and granderthan she found it
and most of all the best Grandmother.

Four Wisconsin residents died on April 19 when a small plane crashed in Illinois
The small plane had left a Nashville airport and crashed into a field in Trilla
Federal authorities said they were investigating the accident and expected a preliminary report to be available in about a month
The Coles County Coroner identified those who were inside the plane as Ross Nelson
Nelson was the owner of the plane, according to Federal Aviation Administration records
The airplane struck powerlines and crashed in a field in Trilla
not far from the Coles County Memorial Airport
the National Transportation Safety Board said
The NTSB said an investigator was conducting an on-scene examination and collecting evidence and data related to the crash
The aircraft will be recovered and taken to a secured facility for further evaluation
That report is expected to be available within 12 to 24 months
Where was the plane coming from?The plane departed from Nashville's John C. Tune Airport, according to the Coles County coroner's office. That airport opened in 1986 and is designed for smaller general aviation purposes
The plane was a Cessna C180G. The plane seats up to five passengers and one pilot, according to PlanePHD
Cessna started in 1927 and remains one of the "most known private aircraft brands in the world," according to the company's website.

LAKE PLACID — Steve Brescia of Medford Lakes
was in Utica for the IIHF Women’s World Championship in April 2024
when he ran into some fellow Miracle on Ice Fantasy Camp attendees
Brescia hadn’t attended the camp in a few years
so some of those campers told him that he needed to come back
It’s safe to say it didn’t take much pleading
Brescia was one of 67 hockey players from around the world — alongside 11 of the 1980 U.S
Olympic hockey team members — who took part in the ninth annual MOI Fantasy Camp
and he keeps coming back because of the people he’s met over the years
it’s all a blur because it’s the ’80 guys,” he said
“Then it becomes like a family reunion
Everybody keeps track of each other during the year and some people catch up
Hockey is like the seventh or eighth thing I say when I talk about this camp.”
Miracle on Ice Fantasy camper Jim Hall takes a shot on net with 1980 Olympian Mark Johnson defending him during Wednesday’s final day
The camp director and former ORDA employee
who is currently the director of women’s national team programs for USA Hockey
it’s a bit of a “dysfunctional family reunion.”
“But it’s a family reunion nonetheless,” she said
“Whether it’s the campers themselves or the campers and the 1980 team
it’s just become a really family atmosphere and seeing friends again for the annual reunion.”
Eleven of the 17 surviving members of 1980 hockey team participated in the fantasy camp this year: Bill Baker
Living teammates who did not attend were Steve Christoff
called in during the camp’s 1980 player panel discussion
which was held at RiverTrail Beerworks in Saranac Lake
forward Mark Pavelich died in 2021 and fellow forward Mark Wells died in 2024
two other non-players from the 1980 team were in attendance during this year’s camp: assistant coach Craig Patrick and head athletic trainer Gary “Smitty” Smith
campers and even the 1980 players describe the camp as a “family.” But for Ken Morrow
Morrow’s son Evan took part in the camp
Evan had previously attended the camp in 2022
Ken said it was a thrill to see his son take part in this camp
especially in a building that holds so many great memories for him
“I think he was trying to trade me all camp
but he heard my price was too high,” he joked
“He was having to pay the other guys to even consider (taking) me.”
Having his dad as a coach reminded Evan of his youth hockey days
“You don’t get to replicate that too often
so the fact that we get to replicate it here in Lake Placid
and he added that they’ve still got it
“Phil Verchota still puts me to shame
John Harrington scores like three goals a game
Davey Christian scores like three goals a game,” he said
“They’ve still got that skill in them
and it’s awesome to share the ice with them and the fact that they can even still do what they do is just so surprising to see in an awesome way.”
four of the 1980 players took to the ice with the campers; those included Christian
they get a kick out of being on the bench with us
and being on the ice and passing the puck around and just being teammates,” Johnson said
and just as long as we keep skating and keep upright
we’ll probably keep doing it.”
Brescia said one of his favorite memories at the camp came a few years ago
with an assist from Pav and Buzz,” he said
Smiles were seen all throughout the camp from both campers and 1980 players
Ken Morrow said some of the 1980 players might have as much fun as the campers
who coaches women’s hockey at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and has led them to eight national titles
Despite spending the entire week beforehand in Paris for hockey
“I’m going to Florida for league meetings with the coaches (after this),” he said
“(But) it’s worth it and it’s not that long of a trip from the standpoint that it’s not a couple of weeks
it’s only getting here on a Sunday and we head out on Thursday
but there are a lot of things they get done during that time
This year’s fantasy camp was missing one of its biggest personalities in Mark Wells
Wells struggled with health issues for several years before he died
but when the Miracle on Ice Fantasy Camp was first formed in 2015
Million and other organizers made sure there was something that Wells could do here
“He took the role very seriously,” Million said
Wells often sat near the bench used by the U.S
during the famed “Miracle on Ice” game against the Soviet Union
“He was a special man and we are really missing him this year,” Million said
“It’s no different than missing Pav and Bob Suter
Bob Suter never got a chance to come to this fantasy camp
but Pav was here for a few years and of course
Wells died nearly two weeks after attending last year’s fantasy camp
Johnson said he was always a presence on the team just like Pavelich and Suter were
“It’s just sad because last year
he was in a good place,” Johnson said
“He was in a real good place with his health
his spirits were high and then shortly after we left here
15 jersey was lowered and raised once again from the rafters in honor of him
“To see his number in the rafters with Bobby Suter and Mark Pavelich (is special),” Ken Morrow said
who also played college hockey at Bowling Green with him
He made a lot of friends here as well as all of us.”
The fantasy camp is treated like a real professional hockey season
games and a tournament with medals over three days
campers skated on the Olympic Center’s 1980 Herb Brooks Arena as members of the 1980 U.S
The Olympians then conducted a draft that afternoon
had their team meetings and named their teams
the players participated in practice time on the ice
Tuesday morning and afternoon and Wednesday morning
before moving on to either the Bronze Game or the Gold Game Wednesday afternoon
before the official fantasy camp photo was taken on the ice
Million said they’re already looking forward to the 10th anniversary
and have some ideas on how to make it special and different to really celebrate it
‘Are we going to do another camp?’ and we always
talk about getting to 10 years and seeing what happens,” she said

Ohio's Morrow County is the latest to report a first-time chronic wasting disease (CWD) case, the Ohio Division of Wildlife told the Country Journal
The rest of the 23 CWD-positive deer harvested by hunters during the 2024-25 hunting season were found in Allen
5,783 white-tailed deer were tested for the disease
CWD, a neurologic disease that is fatal to deer and other cervids such as elk and and moose, was first identified in a wild deer in Ohio in December 2020 and in captive deer in 2015
The disease is caused by infectious misfolded proteins called prions
which are transmitted among cervids through contact with body fluids or environmental contamination
US flu activity declined steadily again last week, with rates of influenza-like illness (ILI) dropping further and staying below baseline levels, but flu-related deaths in children climbed to 198, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said in its weekly update today
The percentage of outpatient visits for ILI
dipped slightly from 2.5% the previous week to 2.4% last week (see CDC graph at left)
The number of patients hospitalized for flu was 4,639
however—New York—reported high ILI activity
no US jurisdiction recorded high or very high activity
but the cumulative hospitalization rate for this season—125.6 patients per 100,000 population—is the highest since the 2010-11 season
The CDC confirmed 10 new pediatric flu deaths
This compares with 207 deaths last flu season
Nine of the new deaths were from influenza A and 1 from influenza B

A study of US hospital data shows that carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) accounted for more than a third of all A baumannii infections from 2018 through 2022 and is increasingly more common
US researchers reported yesterday in BMC Infectious Diseases
Using clinical and microbiologic data from 314 US hospitals included in the PINC AI Database
researchers examined 7,270 hospitalizations in which one or more A baumannii clinical culture was identified
In addition to assessing the overall and regional incidence of A baumannii and CRAB
the researchers examined hospital discharge destination
The overall A baumannii incidence rate was 1.19 cases per 100 hospitalization encounters and 1.33 cases per 100 unique patients
Yearly incidence increased slightly from 2018 through 2021
a total of 2,708 hospital encounters (37%) were identified
with an overall incidence rate of 0.44 cases per 100 hospitalization encounters
Yearly incidence rose from 0.39 per 100 hospitalization encounters in 2018 to 0.53 in 2022
and east south central regions had the highest CRAB incidence rates (0.78
and 0.63 cases per 100 hospitalization encounters
Patients with CRAB relative to patients with carbapenem-susceptible A baumannii (CSAB) were more likely to die during their hospitalization (20.5% vs
were more likely to be transferred to another healthcare facility (38.6% vs
and were less likely to be discharged to home (18.0% vs
Patients with CRAB also had significantly higher 14- and 30-day in-hospital mortality rates and significantly longer total and infection-associated hospital LOS relative to patients with CSAB
"Given the observed incidence rates of CRAB and CSAB in this study and the critical importance of early appropriate therapy
as a potential pathogen in adult hospitalized patients presenting with clinical signs and symptoms of infections," the study authors wrote
adding that strict infection control and routine surveillance might reduce the burden
Colombia's health ministry yesterday declared a public health emergency owing to the circulation of yellow fever in several regions of the country
In a statement
Cases have been reported in nine departments
located in the Andean region in the west central part of the country
The ministry urged all people ages 9 months and older to be vaccinated against yellow fever.
"The outbreak has shown progressive expansion
in a short period of time," the ministry said
cases have occurred in territories where they had not been historically reported
Though urban transmission in Colombia hasn't been reported since 1929
some cases have been detected in populated centers and on the outskirts of cities that have low population densities
highlighting the risk of spread to larger urban areas
The government took several steps in September to contain the spread
including forming and sending vaccination teams to all affected areas.
Global Virus Network scientists highlight the need for robust surveillance
and readiness for potential human-to-human viral transmission
only the severe infections continued to cause symptoms.
Almost 90% of the European cases were reported in Romania

Oregon will allow the Port of Morrow to violate its water pollution permit by spreading nitrogen-contaminated wastewater on nearby agricultural fields
despite a drinking water crisis in the area
Gov. Tina Kotek issued an executive order Monday declaring a state of emergency in Morrow and Umatilla counties
citing the risk of an economic shutdown if permit conditions aren’t waived
The port processes wastewater from a number of agricultural and food processing businesses in the two counties
Port officials say a wet winter threatens to overwhelm its wastewater storage capacity next month
meaning it would not be able to accept any more wastewater from businesses
“My office has heard directly from producers and farmers in the Lower Umatilla Basin that pausing operations even for a short time in February would be devastating to the local economy and potentially shut down some operations permanently,” Kotek said in a news release
“Morrow and Umatilla counties are key to our state’s agricultural production — directly and indirectly employing thousands of Oregonians
but families across the globe,” Kotek said in the release
is within the Lower Umatilla Basin Groundwater Management Area
so designated because the groundwater already has high levels of nitrates
Morrow County declared a state of emergency after testing showed private wells had high nitrate concentrations
The county began providing residents with bottled water
Also that summer, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality fined the port $2.1 million for repeatedly overapplying wastewater containing nitrogen to agricultural fields and failing to monitor those fields
DEQ increased its original $1.3 million fine, issued in January, after finding additional wastewater violations. DEQ found the port violated its permit 2,155 times
the state has invested millions of dollars to cover the cost of drinking water testing
water delivery and long-term strategy development
In April 2024, DEQ levied an additional $727,500 fine for more than 800 wastewater violations during the November 2023 through February 2024 non-growing season
Port of Morrow gets one-time exception to permit rulesKotek’s emergency declaration allows the port to dump wastewater on the fields between Wednesday and Feb
It restricts the dumping to certain fields that are either down-gradient from domestic wells or considered at “low risk” of contaminating drinking water
The port also agreed to complete new lined storage lagoons by Nov
meaning it will no longer need to land-apply wastewater in the winter
We must balance protecting thousands of jobs in the region
and domestic well users during this short period of time during an unusually wet winter,” she said

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — When Aneesah Morrow, LSU’s prolific forward, is around her family, she’ll sometimes be teased about her prodigious appetite.
“She can probably outeat my sons,” Morrow’s mother, Nafeesah, said with a laugh this week as she also recalled telling LSU’s basketball staff, “you won’t have a problem with this kid, I promise you — unless you don’t feed her.”
It’s a fitting metaphor for the hunger with which Morrow — a “walking double-double,” as Tigers coach Kim Mulkey calls her — approaches basketball.
Although the 6-foot-1 Morrow doesn’t possess the typical size of a dominant post player, she enters her final NCAA Tournament having led the nation with 13.6 rebounds per game and 27 double-doubles.
She’s one of two players in NCAA history (along with former Oklahoma player Courtney Paris) with more than 100 career double-doubles. Her 1,665 career rebounds rank No. 4 in NCAA Division I history.
Just eight Division I players have ever amassed 2,500 career points and 1,500 career rebounds. Morrow is one of them.
“There’s nobody that outworks ’Neese. She’s a great leader, a great person,” LSU guard Mikaylah Williams said. “She’s got a really good head on her shoulders. And it’s about everything but her. She’s willing to put all of our needs before her. She’s willing to do whatever the team needs.”
Williams also describes Morrow as a person “you go to when you want somebody to tell you the truth and you want somebody to push you.”
Morrow said that if she were more focused on her impending professional career in the WNBA, she might have been better served playing on the wing — also known as the “three” spot on the court — instead of in the paint.
“I need to be as fierce and dominant on the boards as I possibly can be,” Morrow added. “We need that post presence.”
One area where Morrow arguably has not realized her potential is in the Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) arena. While she welcomes endorsements and has social media accounts, she isn’t “really into getting all those followers or doing all that content.”
“I just don’t want my life to revolve around social media,” Morrow said. “I want to be able to get off my phone.”
Morrow “doesn’t need the social media platforms to let everybody know she’s a really good basketball player,” Williams says. “That’s just her keeping her priorities straight. She plays basketball first and whatever comes after that comes.”
Morrow might not be the most visible women’s basketball player during March Madness, which for LSU (28-5) begins Saturday night against San Diego State (25-9).
Other players — such as LSU guard Flau’Jae Johnson — will appear in national television advertising campaigns more frequently than Morrow will.
“Do I get the attention I deserve? I don’t really care if I do or not because the numbers don’t lie,” Morrow said. “It’s not based on opinions. It’s not based on any outside noise. It’s based on what I’ve done.”
Morrow credits much of her success to her parents. They met at Nebraska, where her mother, who then went by the name Nafeesah Brown, played basketball. Her father, Ed, played football for the Cornhuskers.
Nafeesah, who also is 6-1, averaged 20.2 points and 10.1 rebounds during her senior year of 1993-94. The Chicago native has since been inducted into Nebraska’s athletic Hall of Fame and went on to a career as a high school coach and athletic director.
Morrow said her mother pushed her to “cross-train” by playing multiple sports — namely volleyball, which helped her time jumps to high-point the ball at the net, whether blocking or uncorking vicious spikes.
Her parents also cultivated her work ethic.
“When you’re younger, you kind of get mad at your parents for waking you up at six in the morning to go run on the track ... or be on the sidewalk in front of the porch, dribbling,” Morrow recalled. “But it was a way of keeping us active, staying away from our phones. I feel like that’s something that really helped.”
Morrow began her college career at DePaul, an easy place for family to attend games during her two seasons there. But her parents supported her decision to transfer in 2023.
“Me and her dad went to college away from home and we thought that was some of the best opportunities for growing up and being an adult,” Nafeesah Morrow said. “I wanted her to have that experience.”
With offers from several powerhouse programs, Morrow chose to play for Mulkey, a Hall of Famer who coached three Baylor teams and one LSU squad to national titles.
“Her personality is a quiet, confident, hard worker — just fights for everything she gets,” Mulkey said. “She’ll go down in the history of my coaching as one of the all-time greats.”
While there’s no shortage of good food in Louisiana, Morrow said she has worked with a nutritionist this season to get lighter and faster. She says she’s cut out soft drinks during the season and curtailed her intake of chips and chocolate.
“If you work this hard throughout the season and you have the talent and ability to win, why not?” Morrow said. “Why not us? We’ve pushed through a lot. We’ve worked through a lot. We’ve had each other’s back. ... When you show that on the floor, it can be scary. And that’s what we need to display in March Madness.”

The Eagles elevated two players from the practice squad for Sunday's Divisional Round matchup against the Los Angeles Rams:
Everyone on the active roster is available for Sunday
The Eagles will announce their inactives list
Blasingame was elevated for last Sunday's win over the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card Round as well
He played two snaps on offense and 10 more on special teams
this is Blasingame's fourth postseason and last Sunday marked his sixth career game
233-pound fullback spent three seasons in Tennessee and was in the midst of his third with the Chicago Bears when he was released
The Eagles signed him to the practice squad on December 3 following the season-ending injury to linebacker/fullback Ben VanSumeren
Blasingame was elevated from the practice squad three times by the Eagles in the regular season
Morrow rejoined the Eagles this week after the season-ending knee injury to Nakobe Dean
Morrow is the ideal late-season roster replacement because he spent this season excelling on special teams for the Bills
playing in 11 games during the regular season
Key special teamers Oren Burks and Jeremiah Trotter Jr
are expected to fill the role on defense left in Dean's absence
meaning that the Eagles wanted to shore up the special teams unit
having started 12 games last season on defense and posting 93 tackles and three sacks
He could fill in there in an emergency situation
although he only played 44 total defensive snaps this season with the Bills
Sunday will mark just his second postseason contest after making the playoffs for the first time in six seasons last year with the Eagles
Here are the jersey numbers for the new veterans

Ken Morrow didn't think he was worth a book
Associated Press hockey writer Allan Kreda thought he was
Kreda won; and if you don't believe me check it out for yourself since the autobiography is officially on sale.
It's called Ken Morrow, Miracle Gold, Four Stanley Cups And A Lifetime of Islanders Hockey.
The title is a mouthful -- I grant you that -- but the book is every bit a classic in so many ways and Ken is an author in so many other arresting ways.
When Kreda came up with the book idea he had to convince Ken that, yes, he was a book. How did he pull it off?
"I basically offered to Ken that his stories are so good and so inspiring that a book combining Olympic glory and four Cups would be a natural," Kreda says.
Once they agreed to collaborate, Morrow -- who had been through so many hockey wars -- now found himself in a literary battleground.
"At first," Morrow says, "I began thinking to myself, 'What did I get myself into?"
In a sense, Ken was fortunate, Allan was passionate about the idea from the get-go and this passion -- and Kreda's hockey savvy -- turned Morrow into a gung-ho teammate.
"It didn't take me long to realize that Allan knows more hockey than I do," Morrow chuckles.
Really, the book is a primer in perseverance and grim determination. Ken grew up in tough, industrial Flint, Michigan but with the best mentor any lad could have.
Chapter Two is simply titled Don Morrow and, to say the least, it's gripping. Ken's dad stood 6-5 and, as the son affectionately put it, "was a gentle giant. When he did say something, he had your attention."
And when you read on it's obvious -- like father, like son. "Don Morrow tackled adversity and challenges and didn't complain or burden anybody else."
Don Morrow was a splendid athlete and so advanced a baseball player that a road to the majors was very much in the cards.
Tragedy intervened and at age 48 he died in 1976 when Ken was a freshman at Bowling Green University, but Don Morrow had lived long enough to have stamped an indelible mark on his son. Chapter Two tells all about it and Ken tells it passionately and well. I'll leave you with this:
Ken: "After my father passed, when I stood at the blue line or on the bench for every national anthem before every game -- in college, in the Olympics and the NHL, I would look up at the flag and think about my dad and thank him for all he had done. My father was with me for every game I played"
The Maven has watched Ken from his Day One as an Islander, a Saturday afternoon on March 1, 1980. He had just come from the Olympic triumph at Lake Placid and the traditional White House visit.
What he wondered about was the manner of welcome -- if any -- from Islanders players who had slogged their way through a long season.
"I can't say enough good things about how welcome the Islanders players made me feel," Ken wrote, "especially remembering I was joining the team late in the season and possibly taking somebody's job."
The Islanders lost that day but nobody in the organization -- from general manager Bill Torrey to coach Al Arbour – suffered any doubts about Ken's ability.
The scout who originally discovered Ken, Jim Devellano, is well quoted in the book about that very point -- did Morrow have the goods?
Devellano: "Bill Torrey and I determined that Ken could come in and play on our defense."
Team captain Denis Potvin wrote a brilliant Foreword for the book. I liked Potvin's description of their first meeting:
"He was very quiet. He may not have said much, but I could quickly see with the quality and tenacity of his play that he didn't have to say much at all."
But a heck of a lot is said in this autobiography and not all by the chief protagonist. Co-author Kreda diligently and skillfully interviewed just about everyone who had anything to do with Ken's life.
That included his wife, his Olympic team captain Mike Eruzione, teammate Buzz Schneider, player-broadcaster Joe Micheletti -- well, just about everyone.
I loved the little sidebars; like this one from Eruzione:
"During pre-Olympic months when we were based in Minnesota I was living with Ralph Corx, and we didn't have a car. So, we bought Kenny's brother's car, a green 1972 Camaro, just to get around. We paid them $400 and used the car to mostly go to practice and back. Before we left for Lake Placid, Kenny gave us the $400 back and we returned the car."
For The Maven, Morrow's Islanders adventures were just the best read of all; especially the crusade in the first (1980) Cup quest. As a reporter covering the team, I watched in awe as Morrow delivered his first of a few 14-carat gold overtime goals
This was a best-of-five series which was tied 1-1 with Game Three in Tinseltown. The Kings were playing the Islanders tough and led 3-1 before Al Arbour's skaters rallied to send the game into overtime. Everyone in our crowd felt a loss would be fatal.
Then it was Ken to the rescue. Los Angeles goalie Mario Lessard stopped his first shot but, somehow the puck found Ken again just inside the middle of the blue line.
Morrow: "I let go with my patented half-slap shot along the ice and toward the net, and with the hockey gods smiling on me again, it deflected off a defenseman's skate and went past Lessard for the overtime winner! It was my first overtime goal and what a memorable one it was. I remember being mobbed in the celebration....and such a relief."
Another aspect of the book that especially pleased me was Ken's recognition of an Islander many have forgotten but who was so key to the dynasty -- defenseman Gord Lane.
Morrow: "What a perfect pairing for me. He was the guy no opponent wanted to mess with on the ice, and for me coming into the league, guys were going to test you. To have Gordie on the other side of the ice was a great help to me.
"We still laugh about our 'direct passes around the boards' to our wingers, meaning we rimmed the puck around the boards and blamed the wingers if they didn't get it out."
There were many virtues to Ken's game. In his book, Morrow has innumerable sidebars that focus on his game. In one of them former Los Angeles King foe Jim Fox put it this way:
"Ken was like a grapevine. You try to get somewhere, and he would scoop you up. Getting around him was very tough. He controlled an area."
Bob Nystrom: "With Ken's arms, he could reach across the rink!"
Barb (Mrs.) Morrow: "My husband was 'king of cross-checking!"
Glenn (Chico) Resch: "I don't remember a mistake he ever made."
At 6-4 -- tall for that NHL era -- Morrow had an intimidating look about him. He could fight if challenged and -- in his first NHL bout -- he was up against St. Louis Blues' tough captain Brian Sutter. Both dropped their gloves and swung like drunken windmills.
Asked by Ken what he thought of the performance, Bryan Trottier told Morrow: "You beat the crap out of his stomach!"
The incessant pressure of Olympic hockey steeled Morrow for the 1980 playoffs which would determine whether the Islanders really had the goods. One by one they disposed of the Kings, Bruins and Sabres. Now in the Final, they faced the Broad Street Bullies with the tourney opening in Philadelphia.
Covering the series, I wondered how the Arbourmen ever would surmount this wall of a hockey team. Philly had a historic 35-game unbeaten streak (25 wins, 10 ties) fortified by Hall of Famer Bobby Clarke, 50-goal scorer Reg Leach and goalie Pete Peeters who impressively went 29-5-5 over the season.
The feeling I had was that if the Islanders were to win the series they had to somehow capture the opener. I could not even dream at the time that Ken would be involved in the sudden-death winner. And on the power play, no less.
Morrow: "I used to joke that the only time Al would use me on the power play was if there were five seconds left and the face-off was in our end."
But there was Ken retrieving the puck, passing to Denis Potvin who skimmed it back to Morrow who dumped it into the corner where it went from Bob Nystrom to John Tonelli to Potvin.
Back and forth the series swung and on May 24, 1980 the Islanders led three games to two. "It was a war of attrition," Ken recalled, "and survival of the fittest -- a grueling test."
The Coliseum rocked at the end of the second period with the home team leading, 4-2. I vividly recall walking the aisles with my friend Harvey Bien and listening to the fans talking as if the series already was in the bag.
In two shakes of a lamb's tail the Flyers lit a pair of red lights and the Coliseum turned into a large morgue.
One by one, minute by minute Philly attacked and attacked while Billy Smith repulsed and repulsed. You had to be there to experience one of the most splendid examples of clutch goaltending in the universe; so good that it enabled the Isles to escape to overtime.
"Nobody wanted to go back to Philadelphia for a winner-take-all Game Seven," wrote Morrow. "I can't imagine the tension the fans were feeling in the stands."

Finally, the classic OT play; Lorne Henning at center to John Tonelli on the right to Bob Nystrom on the left, taking the pass in motion and beating Peeters.
Chico Resch (in Ken's book): "The backhand deflection that Bobby made to get it up and over a sliding Peeters was brilliant."
Ken: "I didn't see the winning goal when it happened; my head was down, and I was catching my breath as I was sitting on the bench. Hearing the roar of the crowd and jumping over the boards is what I will always remember."
Barb Morrow: "We had lived in the Holiday Inn for three months after we arrived because they weren't even expecting to go far, so they just told us to stay there."
Before I sign off on this wonderful hockey book, Islanders book, Morrow book, champions book, let me just say something I never have said about any player in 70 years of hockey writing.
Ken Morrow was a stealth hockey player in the very best sense of the word. He possessed an unobtrusive, secretive way of moving intended to avoid detection by the foe. It was a God-given talent that enabled him reach a pedestal reserved for only one -- him.
And with this quality he was been able to accomplish more than any other hockey player on earth -- Olympics and National Hockey League. Better still, it's all presented to us in this very fine volume.
In Allan Kreda he found the quintessential stealth hockey journalist who, like the player, has accomplished so much for so long without fuss or fanfare.
Together, Ken Morrow and Allan Kreda have produced the perfect hockey book. It's equally satisfying to know that two of the nicest guys in captivity have pulled off this feat.
Now, reader, if you don't mind, please leave me alone so I can read it a second time!
