Southie. Norovirus sickens more than 100 elementary school students, staff About 140 students and 10 staff members at Condon Elemen-tary School in South Boston have fallen ill in recent days with what is believed to be a highly contagious norovirus.

Condon Elementary School sent parents an automated call Tuesday night informing them about the suspected outbreak, The Boston Globe reported.

The virus is spread from an

infected person, contaminated food or water, or by touch-ing contaminated surfaces, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion. Norovirus symptoms include diarrhea, vomiting, nausea and stomach pain.

The Boston Public Health Commission and inspectional services sanitized the school Tuesday night. METRO

Crime

Man charged in Dorchester store shooting A Roxbury man was held on $100,000 cash bail at his arraignment Wednesday in Dorchester Municipal Court on charges he shot and wounded a store clerk during a conve-nience store robbery.

Prosecutors say Jarris Charley, 21, entered the D&D Convenience Store on Dorches-

ter Avenue around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, showed a gun and demanded money.

Charley then allegedly shot the store clerk, who was behind the cash register. Police later arrested Charley based on a description provided by the victim, who was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

Charley faces charges of armed robbery, assault with intent to murder, and unlaw-ful possession of a fi rearm. METRO

Gov. Deval Patrick introduces Governor-elect Charlie Baker on Wednesday after the two met to discuss Baker’s transition into the Corner Offi ce. Democratic candidate Martha Coakley, left, gives her concession speech Wednesday morning. / NICOLAUS CZARNECKI, METRO

After a tight gubernatorial race where his opponent did not concede until this morn-ing, Gov.-elect Charlie Baker said Wednesday afternoon he is focused on his transition to the Corner Office.

Baker, a Republican from Swampscott, speaking at a press conference at the Sea-port Boston Hotel, said he is “looking forward to rolling up our sleeves and getting to work.”

Baker beat Attorney Gen-eral Martha Coakley, a Demo-crat from Medford, by about 40,000 votes. Coakley, how-ever, had declined to concede the race Tuesday night, wait-ing to make that announce-ment until around 8:15 a.m.

Baker met with incum-bent Gov. Deval Patrick, who did not seek a third term, Wednesday to start the transi-tion process.

He added that his cam-paign has also reached out to legislative leaders.

His first order of business, said Baker, will be hiring tal-ented and energetic people to serve in the administration. He said James Peyser, a former chairman of the state Board of Education, will lead his transi-tion team. Other than that, he did not name names.

Boston. Baker met with outgoing Gov. Deval Patrick on Wednesday, and named the head of his transition team.

Visit Metro.us to view photos from Charlie Baker’s victory party in Boston.

He credited his victory to his campaign’s focus on the economy, educational attain-ment and the need for bipar-tisan checks and balances on Beacon Hill.

Coakley, meanwhile, thanked Baker for his gra-ciousness and told the crowd

at her Somerville headquar-ters Wednesday morning, “I feel like we both won.”

She described running on the Democratic ticket as a privilege.

Baker is the first Republi-can governor since Mitt Rom-ney left office in 2007. His vic-tory on Tuesday avenged his gubernatorial defeat in 2010 to Deval Patrick.

This marks a second major political defeat for Coakley, who lost to Scott Brown in a 2010 special election for U.S. Senate.

Baker said the public clear-ly supported not tethering the gasoline tax in the state to in-flation by approving Question 1 on Tuesday’s ballot.

“I think that’s positive,” he

said of the result.He also noted that voters

supported moving forward with casinos in the state by re-jecting a measure that would have repealed the casino law.

“There will be positive as well as negative effects,” he said of casinos.

He also said he would sup-

port the wish of the majority of state voters who decided to require almost all employers in the state to provide sick leave to their employees, in-cluding part-timers.

Cops: Drunken driver hits 3 kids An alleged drunken driver ran down three children in Springfi eld earlier this week.

Police allege that Pedro Gonzalez, 58, of Springfi eld, struck and hit a 13-year-old girl, a 13-year-old boy and an 11-year-old boy near the corner of Chestnut and Montmorenci streets.

All three suff ered major injuries, police said, after the van Gonzalez was driving allegedly struck them in an intersection. By the time fi rst-responders arrived, the 11-year-old was unconscious.

The trio were taken to a local hospital and as of Tues-day, the 11-year-old was still in critical condition. The con-ditions of the three children were unclear Wednesday.

Gonzalez was arraigned on charges of operating a motor vehicle under the infl uence of alcohol causing serious injury, operating under the infl uence — his second drunken driving off ense — and a crosswalk violation. METRO

Transit officials on Wednesday rolled out the first in a line of 60 new hybrid diesel-electric buses that MBTA officials say line up with its environmental focus and need to replace the outdated fleet, but the vehicles also come with some other ex-tra features — like a few more sets of eyes.

The 40-foot buses will fea-ture onboard video recording and surveillance systems in-cluding “Live Look In,” which will allow transit police to re-motely access and monitor bus activity.

Transit officials described the cameras as “increased safety and security features.”

Haymarket. The MBTA is adding 60 state-of-the-art hybrid buses to its system.

A large video monitor is also included behind the operator facing the passengers.

The first hybrid bus depart-ed from Haymarket Station at 11:30 a.m.

MBTA General Manager Beverly Scott said the fully accessible buses will have im-proved customer information systems, better lighting and

greater reliability.“These new hybrid buses

will not only reduce emissions and improve gas mileage for the MBTA bus fleet, they will provide a more comfortable and secure experience for our customers,” said Scott.

The remaining 59 buses are expected to be delivered by the end of March.

About the buses

President Barack Obama ac-knowledged on Wednesday that “Republicans had a good night” with sweeping election victories in Congress and said he got a clear message from voters that it was his respon-sibility to break a Washington gridlock.

Tuesday’s elections gave Republicans control of both houses of Congress for the first time since elections in 2006. The new Congress will take office in early January.

“As president, I have a

unique responsibility to try and make this town work,” the Democratic president said at a White House news confer-ence. “So, to everyone who voted, I want you to know that

I hear you.”Republicans seized control

of the Senate and captured their biggest majority in the House of Representatives in more than 60 years.

The president, whose un-popularity made him unwel-come to many fellow Demo-crats running for office, called a series of Democratic and Re-publican lawmakers on Tues-day night, the White House said. REUTERS

The road forward

Her solution

How do you deal with all of this?You just answer the ques-tions as PC as possible. As an artist, you hope to play all of them and not just one specifi c Korean character because you’re Korean. I don’t think that’s really fair. ... A great actor is a great actor, and they can turn into something else. But it’s quite entertaining when everyone in a movie about Egypt is anything but Egyptian. So I get it, I get it. It’s a hard thing to address.

When will we get to see Asian-American arcs on television that aren’t just telling the same story?Yeah, I’m so sick of that story. And it’s my story, too. I think once we phase out of this decade, hopefully it will become more even. And I feel like we’re getting there, but slowly.

Jamie Chung has a few things to say about being an Asian-American actress, not least of which is that people shouldn’t make a big deal about her playing Japanese

or Chinese people when she’s Korean. Sure, maybe the pro-motional tour for Disney’s new

Jamie Chung vs. Hollywood’s Asian problem

Interview. The Korean-American actress doesn’t think it’s a problem if she plays Japanese or Chinese characters.

animated romp, “Big Hero 6,” which follows the adventures of a team of techies-turned-superheroes and an inflatable robot, isn’t an ideal time for talking about race-based casting and Asian-American representation, but it’s a con-versation worth having, and one Chung is eager to have.

How often do you get asked about representing Asian-Americans?I’m Korean; my nationality’s Korean. And you know, I get asked [about playing different nationalities] quite often. I really don’t see what difference it makes. I’m honored to play

these roles, and I know quite a lot about the Japanese culture as well as Thai culture and Korean culture and Chinese culture, and they are all very different. But it’s weird that I get called out on those kinds of questions because it’s like, do you call out Australian actors for playing British? “How does it feel playing a white charac-ter?” You know what I mean? I just wish it didn’t have to be so racially defined. It becomes quite annoying.

Do you ever feel a sense of, “Why am I expected to be a representative?”I read an interview with Lucy

Liu where they asked her, “How does it feel to represent the whole Asian community?” And she’s like, “I never asked for that! I’m just doing my job.” She doesn’t necessarily want that responsibility. And I’m not saying that I don’t, it’s just … I don’t know. I consider myself an artist, and I love and appreciate all these different cultures. It’s interesting, and I get it. There’s a lot of national-ism and a lot of pride, and I re-spect that. But as an artist, it’s sad that we’re kind of limited. We’re already so segregated — Asian female actress — it sucks that it’s even more limiting if you think like that.

“Horns” tells the story of Ig, a young man who wakes up one morning with a pair of horns growing out of his head.

And lucky for Joe Hill, the author of the book it’s based on, Dan-iel Radcliffe was

What did you think of Daniel as Ig?I think he’s amazing. I just think he’s great. … What he actually brought to the screen was wildly beyond my deepest hopes. I think that he is what is most exciting

about the film, by far. The whole thing is anchored by his emotional commitment.

What were you interested in seeing adapted well?I wanted to see the breakup. I wanted to see both the sweetness that comes with a young first love … and also the emotional wreckage that a person feels when it all

comes apart. We have lots of pyrotechnics … but I think that the great special effect in the film is the breakup scene.

Did you like the horns?I got to wear them! I was on set for a few days and the special effects crew was trying their third stage horns and they needed someone to

Wang doesn’t work out, but he knows the importance of yoga pants. / PROVIDED

TINA [email protected]@metro.us

A quick scan of the crowd gath-ered for Alexander Wang’s ex-clusive H&M debut reveals the fashion set’s new unofficial

uniform: sleek black every-thing and sneakers.

It seems that every edi-tor present ditched her stilettos for October’s multi-part extrava-ganza — a morning press conference downtown, with an evening fashion show way uptown, followed by an after-hours pop-up shop and concert — which is to-tally fitting.

Wang has championed

effortless, off-duty dressing since launching his label in 2004. For Spring 2015, the designer drew in-spiration from “the phenom-enon of sneaker culture.”

Now his much-hyped H&M collaboration — hitting stores today! — takes on active wear.

“A lot of my friends are gym fanatics and go to SoulCycle,” explains Wang about the start-ing point for his capsule.

The designer, who has a sixth sense for how trendset-

Alexander Wang x H&M: The new urban uniform

ters want to dress, stresses that sporty clothes are no longer rel-egated to the gym.

“There’s a lot of people like me: I’m not an athlete, I don’t work out, but I wear gym clothes almost ev-ery day,” he says while picking at a plate of grapes backstage. Re-hearsal for to-night’s runway show got pushed back, and so did any chance to eat.

Further proving his point that fitness inspired fashion is of-ficially a “thing,” Be-yonce and TopShop recently partnered to produce an athletic label.

“People have such active lifestyles that they want to be com-fortable. They want to be able to move and take the subway and run around,” says the designer.

If there’s anyone who un-derstands our fast-paced lives, full of multitasking and meals on the go, it’s Wang. In addition to designing his eponymous multimillion-dollar brand, the 30-year-old was named cre-ative director of Balenciaga in 2012. And somewhere in the mix he managed to create this collection for this Swedish fast-fashion retailer — which, he

stressed during the morning press conference, isn’t a lower-priced version of his greatest hits. These designs are brand new.

“I always try to push forward and discover a new conversa-tion that I haven’t necessarily done before, while staying very true to the approach of ease, the approach of being unpre-tentious, the approach of being comfortable,” he says.

Sporty clothing fits the re-quirements. Specifically, says Wang, “the idea of sports at night.” Anyone who’s attended a Wang after-party knows that the designer prefers to burn his calories on the dance floor.

Cutout scuba dresses, tech-inspired leggings and quick-drying crop tops work just as well at the club as they would at, say, Equinox.

“I’m not trying to reinvent the wheel,” says the designer. “I love fashion; it’s fun, and I think it should be celebrated.”

An hour later, acrobats stormed the racetrack runway. They jumped and flipped on trampolines before supermod-els such as Joan Smalls, Karlie Kloss and a bevy of shirtless men took the floor.

Confetti came down. The “Wang”-embossed sweatshirt sold out early. And like his epic fashion week after-parties, guests danced the night away to a surprise performance. This time, it was Missy Elliott com-manding revelers to “Get Ur Freak On.”

The smart ones raged in sneakers.

Debut. The designer’s take on day-to-night dressing includes a stop at the gym.

Quoted

“This line is so close to my process and how I live that it felt very authentic to my lifestyle.” Wang

11DATING

When designer and new media artist Sarah Hallacher broke up with her longtime boyfriend last year, she couldn’t help but notice just how connected the former couple’s online lives were long after their relationship ended.

Along with all of the heartache and emotions that usually accompany the ending of a relationship, Hallacher also had to spend a considerable amount of time and energy untangling their digital lives. “My partner and I lived together, and as I was moving out and trying to de-tangle everything, I needed a creative outlet. So I just started taking screenshots,” says Hallacher, who lives in Brooklyn. Those screenshots were the inspiration for Hallacher’s latest project “The User Experience of a Heartbreak,” a collection of animated GIFs and other images that together tell the story of a modern relation-ship.

Tip

Pick your security question carefully

One particularly startling moment for Hallacher came recently when she had to call about one of her credit cards. “I probably call my credit card company about once a year , if that, and I totally forgot that I made his name the answer to my security question,” she says. “ So the operator asks, ‘Who is your best friend?’ And it‘s him.”

We talked to Hallacher about some of the surprising things social media revealed about her breakup.

Facebook remembers everything

“At some point, [my ex] blocked me on Facebook and he kind of mentioned ‘that it’s really painful to see any mention of you online,’” Hallacher explains. “When I

first noticed he blocked me, I thought, “Does this end our relationship? Are we not friends anymore?”

Hallacher took to the Internet to find the answers to these questions, and it turns out that many people were asking the same thing. “I found this massive archive of all of these social media questions,” she says. “It was interesting to see that people wanted to know what happened because they were having an emotional reaction to all of these things.”

Netfl ix doesn’t recognize you While Facebook never for-gets, it seemed like compa-nies like Netflix and Amazon didn’t really know what uncoupled Hallacher was like. “We shared my Netflix account ,” she notes. “So after we split up, my entire Netflix queue was crazy sci-fi movies he wanted to see. It altered my algorithm.”

As for Amazon, Hallacher says that she always used her ex-partner’s account to order products and watch shows. “He had Amazon Prime,” she explains, “so all of my purchase history was on his account. When I went on my own Amazon account, it said I hadn’t bought anything since 2009.”

Quoted

“It’s absolutely an event that encourages people who enjoy going to Citizen and The Hawthorne and Drink and Tavern Road. They know the bartenders there and get what they’re trying to do and want to learn more and have fun.”Rand

In the past couple of years, Boston has been experiment-ing with a couple of differ-ent formats for bringing a beverage industry conference to the city that’s equal to the level of world-class bars and bartenders we have on hand. In its first iteration last year, Thirst Boston seems to have come pretty close to figuring it out. This year, the week-end-long event returns with the same focus on cocktails and spirits, the people that make them both, and, more importantly, the people, like you, who drink them.

The event, which kicks off with an opening night black tie gala on Friday night, has grown, necessitating a move to the Fairmont Copley hotel. For the next two days they’ll host a series of lectures, sem-inars, demos and showcases all tied to the production, history of and best uses for the stuff that goes into our glasses. Those range from the historical-minded, like a look at the production of rye from pre-Prohibition to the pres-ent, to more hands-on, such as a workshop on infusing spirits. Throughout the week-end, bars from cities across New England, including Portland and Providence, will host pop-ups on site, while tastings from distillers from New England in particular, as well as around the world,

DRINK WITH THE PROS AT THIRST BOSTON

Maybe at Thirst Boston, they can teach you how to pour two drinks at once like this guy. / NATASHA MOUSTACHE

will show off their goods.Brandy Rand, one of the

organizers, says it’s an event designed for everyone with an interest in the bar world. “We’re not trying to be Tales of the Cocktail or Portland Cocktail Week, where it’s 100 percent trade and industry,” she says. “With Boston being a small enough community, I feel like people have relationships with their bartenders, there’s a closer divide, not like in New York or San Francisco where you might not interact as much with the bartenders.”

Last year, the draw was around half industry and half consumers, she says.

“It’s absolutely an event that encourages people who enjoy going to Citizen and The Hawthorne and Drink and Tavern Road. They know the bartenders there and get what they’re trying to do and want to learn more and have fun.”

Among some of the opportunities for both, she highlights a look into the overlap of tattoos and tiki culture, sponsored by, of course, Sailor Jerry, a history of the martini led by Tavern Road’s Ryan McGrale, Kevin Mabry from jm Curley teach-ing a class on carbonation and Brother Cleve focusing on the intersection of music

and cocktails. On top of the local talent, she says, big na-tional cocktail world names such as Dave Wondrich and Wayne Curtis will also be on hand.

“We’re trying to make it an experiential weekend,” she says. “Everything is so different, you can kind of really enjoy the weekend and get a different perspec-tive and different experience each day,” from the opening gala, to a dive bar party the next night, to the second annual Bender Blender on Sunday. “Every night you could go out and ... get to have these parties with food and dress up. ... People love a good theme party, and the best bartenders from all over are going to be at these events.”

One of her favorites is From Connery to Cruise: Cocktails in the Movies, led by Citizen’s Sean Frederick, among others. “It’s going to go through everything from James Bond to ‘Cocktail’ to ‘The Big Lebowski’ and take you through all the different types of movies, watching clips from them as they make the drinks.”

Six diff erent ways

The ‘Weathered’ report As for the artist she is today, “Weathered” showcases Miller’s songwriting chops as well as her vocal chops.

“With this EP, I just think the most important thing out of everything is that when people listen to the six diff erent songs, I want them to hear six diff erent points in my life over the past two years,” she says.

“Weathered” is also more artistically daring than the usual post-“Idol” fare. The title track is a building instru-mental storm, almost remi-niscent of The Cure, before Miller shouts an incantation through the fog. And it’s over in about two minutes.

“I’m not a super com-mercial, bubblegum pop kind of girl. I wasn’t even that on ‘Idol’,” she says. “I did lots of singing in lots of places, growing up before ‘Idol.’ And I heard lots of no’s and I didn’t always win, and I think that was good. I think it prepared me, because you’re not going to win at everything. I didn’t even win at ‘Idol’! Who knows if I’ll ever completely win at some-thing, but it doesn’t matter. I can still sing! I’m not a huge fan of competition anyway. I just want to sing.”

‘ I just want to sing’

Set free. Former “American Idol” contestant Angie Miller, who inspired a legion of Dreamers, talks about her new goals and challenges after the cameras stopped rolling.

If you preordered Angie Miller’s upcoming EP, you’re getting a personal touch that you might not even know about. Miller, who rose to fame during the 2013 season of “American Idol,” is addressing envelopes herself to send copies of her brand new EP, “Weathered,” which comes out Tuesday.

“My apartment is hilari-ous right now,” she says. “It’s me, my boyfriend and my best friend who are here, and there’s a stack of T-shirts and a stack of CDs and envelopes ev-erywhere.”

Though Miller was not the first “Idol” hopeful to sing an original song on the show (we can’t forget about Larry Platt’s “Pants on the Ground”) her original song, “You Set Me Free” was a breakout hit. After her elimination on “Idol” in the top three, Miller had talks with multiple record labels, but she says she opted not to pursue a deal because it would mean sac-rificing her independence.

“I realized that getting a label deal and doing all of that stuff would take away from what I truly want to do, and I would have to compromise, and

I know I wouldn’t be in control of my career,” she says. “I want to know everything that’s going on, at least to start out. I want to make mistakes and learn how to do things right.”

But didn’t she learn all about the music industry from being on “American Idol”?

“Oh, gosh,” she says, consid-ering the question. “‘Idol’ was a very different world than the one I’m living in now. I didn’t know a single thing about the music industry, and I was kind of left in the dark. I think ‘Idol’ is boot camp for performance, it’s boot camp for doing inter-views, it’s boot camp for dealing with a lot of stress and still stay-ing positive, but it’s not boot camp for Music Industry 101.”

“You Set Me Free” was up-loaded to iTunes after her TV debut of the song. When asked how this might have helped her financially, she says, “Honestly, I don’t even know. I have no idea.”

“I’m very thankful for my time on ‘Idol’ though, and they got me all of my fans — all of my Dreamers, as I call them,” she says. “I wouldn’t be the artist that I am today without ‘American Idol.’”

Democrats have lost their staying powerMany registered Democratic Party voters could see through the hypocrisy of their candi-dates for governor, Senate and House. With one hand, they gladly accepted President Obama’s assistance in raising millions in campaign funds. Yet, with the other, these same candidates refused to be seen in public shaking hands with the president and campaigning with him side

by side. Worse were those Democrats such as Kentucky’s Alison Lundergran Grimes and others who could not even come out of the closet and publicly admit that they voted for President Obama in 2008 and 2012. The Republican candidates’ margin of victory could have been diff erent had many Obama support-ers — both Democrats and Independents — come out to vote instead of sitting on their hands and staying home. Other Democrats counting on the star power of both former President Bill Clinton along with Senator and Secretary of

State Hillary Clinton as substi-tutes for President Obama in many cases also lost. The Clin-tons could not even deliver their original home state of Arkansas for incumbent Sen. Mark Pryor. Time may have taken away some of the for-mer infl uence of the Clintons. Democrats counting on Hillary Clinton as the best candidate for President in 2016 may want to rethink this strategy.LARRY PENNER, VIA EMAIL

BIG-NAME PLAYERS MAKING BIG RETURNS

As we navigate through the last of the bloated bye weeks, we can narrow our focus from depth to difference-makers.

After all, fantasy football is not a cumulative game — it’s a week-to-week battle. There are plenty of players out there that haven’t suited up in a long time. What to expect from three of the big-gest names:

Flash Gordon

Fantasy’s No. 1 wide receiver from last season is finally nearing a return. Josh Gordon has been allowed at the team facility during his suspension, reportedly working “really hard” and is ready to hit the ground running in Week 12. A dynamic difference maker that has proven he can over-come wobbly quarterback play, Gordon will immedi-ately enter the top-10 WR tier when he makes his season debut against the Falcons. This pass game is absolutely desperate for weaponry.

All Day’s plea

Now that Adrian Peterson has pleaded to one misdemeanor count of assault — with not a mention of child abuse or domestic violence — the ball is in the NFL’s court. Will they reinstate Peterson consider-ing the Vikings running back has already essentially been suspended for eight games

with pay? No one seems to know right now. Even if there’s only a 25 percent chance Peterson plays for the Vikings again this season, he’s well worth adding and stash-ing as a top 3 running back talent. The coaches couldn’t keep him off the field if they got the green light, meaning Jerick McKinnon and Matt Asiata owners should be a little worried.

NHL

Bruins expected to feast on lowly Edmonton

There isn’t a bad time to catch the Oilers (4-7-1), owners of the NHL’s longest playoff drought of eight seasons, but the Bruins (8-6) seem fortunate to meet Edmonton in its usual state of disarray on Thursday (7 p.m., NESN) at TD Garden.

The Oilers’ leading goal scorer, Taylor Hall (six goals, four assists), the No. 1 overall draft pick in 2010, is out with a

knee injury while former Bruin and current Edmonton captain Andrew Ference is serving a three-game suspension for an illegal hit against Vancouver’s Zack Kassian.

Boston, meanwhile, is play-ing its best hockey of the sea-son, having won its last three and four out of its last fi ve.

The Oilers began a fi ve-game road trip with a 4-1 loss to the Flyers on Tuesday. Currently in last place in the Western Conference, they seem destined for another lottery pick.

Thursday’s game is the third

in a four-game homestand for the B’s and nine of their 12 con-tests this month will be at TD Garden. The 2-1 overtime win over the Panthers got the Bruins to the .500 mark (4-4) at home this season.

The B’s hottest player is Brad Marchand, with four goals (including the OT win-ner vs. Florida) and two as-sists in his last fi ve games.

“I feel good about his game,” Boston head coach Claude Julien said about Marchand. “It was a matter of time, his

game has really come along.” With David Krejci out the

last two games with a hip injury, Marchand’s line has needed to carry a bigger load. Tuesday was an indication they can handle it, since Patrice Bergeron scored the other goal for the Bruins, and Marchand and Reilly Smith provided assists.

“It was a big step forward for us,” Marchand said. “We were able to make plays and hold onto the puck. Our legs

seemed to be under us.” RICH SLATE

• Mark Sanchez, QB Eagles: Was Nick Foles playing at an elite level? No. Was he light-ing up the box score? Yes. Sanchez can do the same for Chip Kelly, god of off ense.

• Terrance West, RB, Browns: Cleveland coaches evaluated the tape and determined that West is their best back right now. Sweet dreams, Ben Tate.

• Michael Vick, QB, Jets: The spot doesn’t get much better for Vick as he’s home against a woeful Steelers defense that’s primed for a letdown. Troy Polamalu and Ryan Shazier will be out.

NBA

Report: Lakers will

target Rondo

Several NBA executives

believe the Lakers will

“make a strong run” at

Rajon Rondo next summer

in free agency, according

to a Sports Illustrated

report. The Celtics point

guard is set to become an

unrestricted free agent

next summer. Los Angeles

will have over $30 million

in cap space in the sum-

mer of 2015 and it covets a

star player to place next to

the aging Kobe Bryant.

NFL matchups

Fire up these borderline

wideouts this week:

• Eric Decker vs. PIT: All year long, we’ve been using wideouts against William Gay and Cortez Allen. It’s a winning formula.

• Marques Colston vs. SF: Thanks to linebacker Patrick Willis, the Niners do an excellent job on tight ends. Drew Brees will have to look to Colston.
