SUNDAY, JUNE 29, 2003 DECATUR, ILLINOIS SPORTS C7 tJM Vancouver is front-runner for 2010 Winter Olympics Si ALL-STAR Continued from C1 But then again, it's tough for an offense to run consistently with just a week's worth of practice. "We did a good job to get the plays called, I thought," Tuscola's Austin Hogue said. "With all the different formations, learning it in a week is tough." The East's three quarterbacks finished a combined 4-of-15 for 75 yards and two interceptions. Most of the yardage belonged to Dwight George of Georgetown-Ridge Farm, who completed 3-of-8 attempts for 73 yards. He also wound up with the East Offensive MVP award.

The East managed just 45 yards rushing on 34 carries. Bement's Andy Hendrix led the way with 24 yards on four carries. "I wish we would've come out on top, but it was fun though. I had a good time," Hendrix said. "We had five tries to get a field goal, I think, but oh well." The West team didn't fare much better.

It completed just 2-of-12 passes for eight yards and an interception. The only completion for Maroa-Forsyth's Logan went for no gain. Tyler Shoemaker from Normal U-High connected with Chris Katzmark from Rochester for the West's only forward-moving pass play of the day. "Offensively, we just missed on some things," West and Rochester coach Dave Jacobs said. "In an all-star game you're trying to get everybody to play and you're timing is off a little bit.

We really couldn't get into a flow." The West had a little more success on the ground, finishing with 57 yards on 26 carries. Five of those yards PRAGUE, Czech Republic (AP) The vote is supposed to be for the 2010 Winter Olympics. Yet it may have more to do with a bigger prize the 2012 Summer Games. With geography, politics and technical merit on its side, Vancouver is the favorite as the IOC prepares to select the 2010 host city Wednesday during weeklong meetings in the Czech capital. The scenic British Columbia coastal city is competing against bids from Salzburg, Austria, and Pyeongchang, South Korea.

After a low-key, controversy-free campaign, Vancouver looks in strong position to bring the Olympics back to Canada for the first time since the Winter Games in Calgary in 1988. "The word I'm getting is that it's Vancouver's to lose," British IOC member Craig Reedie said in a comment echoed by several other delegates in interviews. Vancouver is considered a top quality bid in its own right. But it has another key advantage: Many IOC members may be voting with 2012 in mind. New York, Paris, London, Madrid and Moscow have already declared their 2012 candidacies.

That vote will be held in 2005. "I've never seen a lineup of first-class cities to compare with 2012, and that must be in the mind of anybody voting for 2010," IOC vice president Kevan Gosper said. The three candidates for the 2010 Winter Olympics: PYEONGCHANG, SOUTH KOREA Pros: Winter Games have never been held in Asian country other than Japan; sentiment that Olympics could serve as catalyst for peace and reconciliation on Korean peninsula; strong government backing. Cons: Lack of international recognition and visibility; nuclear tensions with North Korea; 2008 Summer Games will be in Asia (Beijing). SALZBURG, AUSTRIA Pros: Strong winter sports tradition and experience in hosting winter competitions; picture postcard Alpine setting.

Cons: Proximity to 2006 Winter Games across the border in Turin, Italy; European preference for bigger prize of 2012 Summer Olympics. VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA Pros: IOC trend for geographical rotation after 2004 and 2006 games in Europe and 2008 in Asia; best review of three bids in IOC report on technical merits; beauty of coastal city. Cons: U.S. interests hoping Vancouver loses to give New York chance for 2012. Associated Press Mo Dampeer, playing in his final high school game before heading to Oklahoma this fall, high-fives his teammates at the Order of the Eastern Star All-Star Game on Saturday.

belonged to Dampeer, who got them on two carries. He had hinted at a surprise before the game, and that was it. "He was wanting to (carry the ball), and I told him I'd let him do it. But he needs to play defense," Jacobs said with a laugh. St.

Teresa standout Mike Kormelink earned the West's defensive MVP honors by virtue of a first quarter interception that set his team up with a short field. "It was kind of crazy for an all-star game to be like this," Kormelink said. Those who saw it probably agreed.

Packs' Favre talks retirement ojiir Y3)(UJir OS sin-39 its But, like all good things, there's a time when he must hang up his cleats and resume life as an everyday citizen.

During his annual Brett Favre Celebrity Golf Tournament at the Grand Bear course in Gulf port, Favre spoke about his upcoming retirement and what life holds for the future. "In some ways, I have thought about retirement," he said. "I know I can play three more years, but I don't now if that's what I want. This time last year, I was dead set on retiring and when it came to an end, I changed my mind. Who knows, I may retire next year.

Only I will know when it's time. GULFPORT, Miss. Brett Favre senses the end to his professional football career. He feels the pain in his knees and other body joints after spending 12 years in the NFL playing against the likes of Michael Strahan and Warren Sapp. If Favre does walk away from the fast moving life of the NFL, there's little he hasn't achieved.

The father of two daughters, Favre boasts a resume that includes being the only player in NFL history to win three MVP honors. He has thrown for more than 40,000 yards and has a Super Bowl ring, too. For Favre, life's been good mentally and financially. Improve your vision with LAS may even improve your game. Dr.
